STRONG BAD: {singing} Email: It's like the sugar on the candy for my stuff.
{reading email}
Dear Strong Bad, Could you please do your impression of Strong Sad? Thanks, Your friend
STRONG BAD: ...and there's no name. Um... Thanks, Your friend... Jhonka. {He types "Jhonka" under "Your Friend", then starts typing his reply.} No way, Jhonka! What a coincidence! I was just on my way out the door to go to the annual Strong Sad Lookalike Contest where contestants are judged on appearance, impression and penmanship. I'm a shoo-in this year, man. Wait'll you see my costume! {Runs offscreen, but runs back a few seconds later to say:} Not beatin' around the bush this week.
{Strong Bad runs off again. Cut to The Field. Coach Z is standing under a sign that reads: "2003 Sectional Finals - STRONG SAD LOOKALIKE CONTEST".}
COACH Z: Okay, I'd like to welcome everybody back! Hope you enjoyed your intermission there. Bubs, the hot cold cuts was great!
BUBS: {off screen} Those were moist towelettes!
COACH Z: So without further ado {pronounced 'adieu'}, I'd like to introduce the man of the hour, the deathly pallor: Strong Sad!!
{Strong Sad joins Coach Z under the sign}
THE KING OF TOWN: {from off screen} Booo!
STRONG SAD: Thank you! Thank you! I'm simultaneously honored and insulted to be involved in this contest for the fourth year in a row.
COACH Z: That's enough there, Strong Sad! {He shoves Strong Sad out of the way.} Your work is done here. Let's get this pratty started!!
{Cut to a view of Strong Bad in a Strong Sad costume, which consists of a grey "Phys Ed" sweatshirt, a white beret, and a paper plate with Strong Sad's face drawn on it. There's a suspicious looking lump under the sweatshirt.}
COACH Z: Lookin' good there, Strong Bad.
STRONG BAD: I know.
COACH Z: Nice use of light and shadow.
STRONG BAD: I know.
COACH Z: ...and picnic supplies.
STRONG BAD: I know. Shut up.
COACH Z: Let's hear what you got.
STRONG BAD: Alright. Let me just push play on my "sweat shirt" here.
STRONG SAD: {on a tape} Why do you want me to say "hello, my name is Strong Sad"? {He fast-forwards the tape} get that tape-recorder out of my face {more fast-forwarding} stop flickin' my ear!
STRONG BAD: {also on tape} More like: You stop flickin' my ear!
STRONG BAD: {He stops the tape.} Ha ha. Oops.
COACH Z: Ok, then. Very unsuspicious.
STRONG BAD: I know.
{Coach Z moves on to Homestar Runner. Homestar is wearing hippo slippers and a grey shirt with a star on it, and he has a sock taped to his head instead of his signature hat.}
COACH Z: Hey there, Homestar. Nice hippo slippers.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Thanks. They're elephants.
COACH Z: Sure they are! Now let's hear your impression.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Um.. remind me again what type stuff that guy says.
COACH Z: You know. Depressing type stuff!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Right right! Here goes! Ahem. {in a depressing voice} Oh... Some animal died. {In his normal voice} That's something he's always saying, right?
COACH Z: Yeah, I think I heard him say that a few times. Next contestant!
{The next contestant appears to be Strong Sad.}
COACH Z: Strong Sad, you're not eligible for this contest! I thought I told you's to go on home!
{A familiar looking hat pops up on the Strong Sad lookalike's head revealing that he is in fact, Homsar. His Strong Sad costume is flawless. Coach Z doesn't realize who it is.}
HOMSAR: {sadly} AaAaAaAa... I'm crying on the inside!
{The Cheat hops up in a paper bag, painted to look like Strong Sad's left leg.}
COACH Z: Ok, The Chort, lay it on me!
THE CHEAT: {in a depressing voice} Meh meh. Mennah mennah mennah meh.
COACH Z: Holy crap! It's as if Strong Sad was still alive and with us today! First Prize!
THE CHEAT: Meh!
{Cut to Strong Bad's computer. Strong Bad walks up muttering. He's still in costume.}
STRONG BAD: Stupid friggin' Cheat-in-a-Bag. {typing} I can't believe The Cheat won sectionals for the 4th year in a row dressed up as Strong Sad's left leg. I knew I should have gone for the bigger butt. Oh well. At least I won the penmanship award. But I should get going if I'm still going to be fashionably late to the afterparty. {stops typing.} So, until next time, all the ladies and dudes say: {singing} "Strong Bad is a cool guy! And we're not cool in the least!"
{Strong Bad leaves and The Paper descends.}

Easter Egg Transcript
{Homestar and Coach Z are standing in a room filled with a balloons. Homestar is dressed in his Strong Sad costume, "Poot-Slap" by 3-Dee is playing in the background, and Coach Z is holding a Not So Cold One.}
COACH Z: I meant to tell you the sock on the head was a nice touch.

- At the after party Coach Z is drinking a "not so cold one," from property_of_ones.
- At the afterparty, "Poot-Slap" by 3-Dee is playing, which is also heard on the secret main page in the Homestar Talker game, as well as the Luau Main Page.
