STRONG BAD: You got to e-mail, just to stay alive! {types "strongbad_email.exe, begins reading}
Dear Strong Bad, How you doin'? I have three quick questions... 1. What's the best thing you've ever seen? 2. What's the best thing you've ever done? 3. What's the best thing you've ever eaten? Later, Albin J. (from Maryland)
{Strong Bad doesn't read the numbers, and after saying "seen", he immediately follows with "done, eaten." He also whispers "um, from Maryland." Then he clears the screen.}
STRONG BAD: {typing} I'm doing real real {types "rrll rrll"} well Albi. Believe it or not, I've got one answer for all three questions. And that answer is...
{Cut to an image of a video tape labelled "Limozeen cartoon" and "Don't record over for dang sake!!!"}
SINGERS: Limozeeeeeeen!
STRONG BAD: The only known copy of the failed pilot episode of the Limozeen Saturday morning cartoon shoooooooow!
{cut back to the Lappy}
STRONG BAD: {typing} It only aired once at, like, 4 a.m. some forgotten Saturday. And guess who was already up and eating brown sugar straight from the box? That's right, Strong Sad. But then I got up and started watching TV. If not for my The Cheat-like VHS reflexes, it would have been as lost as four-armed Grimace. {clears screen} I'll let you guys see it, but please, no flash photography or video taping. It could damage the precious oils and heavy metals of this priceless piece of television history.

Easter Eggs
- Click on "brown sugar" to see a box of "Suge Brown" brown sugar, with the tagline "Don't borrow from thy neighbor".
- At the end of the email, click "eaten" to see a member of Limozeen question his hair color and size:
LIMOZEEN DRUMMER: How come they made me fat and have red hair?
LIMOZEEN LEAD GUITAR: Because you're the comic relief-uh!
{The drummer belches loudly}

Inside References

Real-World References
- The fact that Limozeen's cartoon takes place in space for no good reason is likely a reference to several Hanna-Barbera cartoons which also took place in space for no reason, like the Partridge Family cartoon and Gilligan's Planet.
- The repeated "band being chased" segments may be a reference to Scooby-Doo.
- The space-logo of Limozeen is very similar to the logo of the popular Nintendo game Metroid.
- "Four-armed Grimace" is a reference to the purple McDonaldland character. Grimace was originally named "The Evil Grimace", and he had four arms-- so that he could hold four shakes at once.
