Transcript

STRONG BAD: I'll take Strong Bad Emails for a thousand, please.

STRONG BAD: {typing} I had the same problem, Dewey-Smith. So I called in a professional to get the job done. Let's go see how he's dewing...um...doing.

{Strong Bad leaves his seat. Cut to Bubs working in the garage. Strong Bad enters into the foreground.}

STRONG BAD: So, Bubs, how is it CENSORED?

BUBS: Oh, hey, Strong Bad. I think I'm almost finished. It took me a little while to figure out what I was going to do. {He steps aside to reveal what he's done.} Then I duct-taped an alarm clock to your VCR.

STRONG BAD: Duct-taped an alarm clock to the VCR... See, I never would have thought of that! Okay, there's some CENSORED that seem to be stuck in the duct-tape here. Was that on purpose?

BUBS: Oh... No! That's just left over from my first idea, which was to duct-tape The Cheat to your VCR. He wasn't into that.

STRONG BAD: Oh, I could have told you that, man. Well, anyways, thanks for your help, Bubs. And thank you, Cory... Dewey-Smith! So... Join us next week when we'll be duct-taping clocks to all kinds of different CENSORED.

Commentary Transcript

(Commentary by: Mike Chapman, Matt Chapman)

MIKE: That's a reference to the TV show Jeopardy!

MATT: Yeah...

MIKE: I like how he says Dewey-Smith here. I've always liked that. Or, watch it! Oh, not that.

MATT: Not this time.

MIKE: Yeah. {horrible Strong Bad imitation} Dewey-Smith.

MATT: {as Strong Bad} Dewey, Dewey, Dewey. Dewey, Dewey.

MIKE: Oh, do the voice! Do Strong Bad's voice!

MATT: {as Strong Bad} Dewey, Dewey, Dewey, Dewey.

MIKE: I love to get Matt to do Strong Bad's voice.

MATT: Look, that's one of those, what do you call those work boards in the back?

MIKE: Pegboards.

MATT: Pegboards.

MIKE: My friend Tobin made homemade pegboard just by getting a piece of masonite and drilling the holes in just freehand and it was really bad and funny-looking.

MATT: So in, Mike, thi—

MIKE: Look, the No Loafing sign and his desk are—

MATT: There's also—

MIKE: —right there! So, apparently—

MATT: Wait, is that supposed to be the same desk?

MIKE: I dunno.

MATT: You mean Strong Bad's computer desk is in the garage?

MIKE: There's the same color wall. Well, it looks like it...

MATT: I don't believe you, Mike.

MIKE: Well...

MATT: I like that little, he's like {adopts semi-Strong Bad tone} "Aw, pshaw. I could've told you that." I like that.

MIKE: Wait, you—I like that.

MATT: {Strong Bad voice} Dewey, Dewey, Dewey, Dewey, Dewey, Dewey.

MIKE: Aw, do it again, Matt!

MATT: {Strong Bad voice} Uh, holy cramp!

MIKE: Holy cramp. {laughs}
