'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' When I was sixteen I sold all my emails and hit the road.

''{pronounces "sbmail" as written. The "~" is accompanied by the sound like a cassette tape playing unevenly}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I think we should ''seriously'' talk about your name, Roxy. I'm afraid your career choices maybe limited to a Limozeen groupie or maybe an American Gladiator. ''{clears screen}'' Something involving you wearing scantily clothes. You don't meet too many Professors of Women Studies named Roxy. As for business trips, The Cheat and I are being sent to a conference in a jiust a few seconds here. The Cheat, are you read to road?

''{cut to wider shot of Homestar Runner standing next to Strong Bad's computer}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Sure am, Sam!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, you're not The Cheat.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nah, not any more. The Cheat got promoted to ''{cut to a portrait of The Cheat in a business suit}'' Junior Executive Of Not Having To Go On Pointless Business Trips.

''{Cut back to Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What! I've been trying to get that job for years.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So, it just going to be me and you. Sleepin' out underneath the stars. Roasting some marshmallows.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Homestar, this is a ''business'' trip, not a camping trip.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh. Oh, I see. I guess I shouldn't brought these, then. ''{Pan over to a stack of cans marked "Pork [[b/w]] Beans"}''

''{Diamond iris out to The Field, next to a sign that reads "Annual Symposium Conference Lecture Seminar Series Registration"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Alright, Homestar. We got to start talking loudly about our business trip, so that everyone around us will know we're on a business trip. ''{speaking a little louder}'' Uh, continental breakfast? More like, ''in''-continential bleck-fast.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{angrily}'' Yeah, seal the deal! ''{wider shot with Homestar wearing the pork b/w beans cans on his feet}'' Seal the deal!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Homestar, what are those jangles? ''{Close up of the cans}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, airport security. You know how it is these days. Roll my eyes. ''{Homestar's eye highlights rotate}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, hurry up. We've got to get there before the keynote starts so we can ditch out five minutes after the keynote starts.

''{push wipe to Strong Sad wearing [[cool shades|glasses]] and holding a clip board}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{flatly}'' Welcome to Reducing Your Business's Carbon Footprint Is Not A Matter of Buying Everyone Smaller Shoes. Please allow me to begin.

''{Reverse shot to Strong Bad and Homestar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's our cue.

''{Cut back to Strong Sad}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' And we'll go ahead and break for lunch.

''{Diamond iris out to The Bar, medium shot of Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, there's nothing like a couple of ice cold Expen$e Account Ones while on a business trip.

''{Cut to a wide shot of Homestar and Strong Bad. Homestar is wearing multiple lanyards.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Boy, I'll say. I've been going nuts with our lanyard per diem.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's see what's next on the itinerary. ''{Cut to the itinerary. As items are checked off, check marks appear.}'' Take off wedding rings, check. Complain about hotel mattress, check. Talk about how our dogs are killing us...''{squiggly line appears}'' we're not quite there yet. Collect dry twigs for kindling?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{off-screen}'' That's a check.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Meet hot female executives for drinks. ''{Cut back to Homestar and Strong Bad. Strong Bad looks around.}'' Um.. mostly check? Oh crap, we've got to seal the deal with the foreign conglomerate in ten minutes!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Homestar has leapt into Strong Bad's arms}'' Not a moment too soon! I think I heard a bear rustling in the woods!

''{Iris out to The King Of Town's castle. A gong is heard. The King Of Town is wearing a tag saying "Foreign Conglomerate"}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' All right, gentlemen, this is how this is going to go down. I'm going to write a number on this piece of paper.

''{Reverse shot to Homestar and Strong Bad. The King Of Town slides the paper with an obvious bulge to the pair.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, King, you wrote a piece of lasagna on this piece of paper.

''{Cut back to The King Of Town.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' And, I ain't budging! Now, where are those units?

''{Reverse shot}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What units? I thought we just here to seal the deal.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, Strong Bad wouldn't let me bring all of them. But I did manage to smuggle these two ''{holds up the Pork b/w Beans cans}'' past airport security.

'''STRONG BAD:''' What the sense make?

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Alright, I'll take it! You boys drive a soft bargain. Poopsmith! Prepare the bathtub!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, cramp my style. We sealed the deal! Go ahead Homestar, you— you've earned it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Homestar puts his feet up on the table}'' My dogs are killing me!

''{Cut back to the Lappy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the real reason for business trips is to buy last minute peanut brittle and crappy souvenirs from airport gift shops for your kids!

''{Cut to the Cheat on the computer table, with a windup airplane floating in a fish bowl}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{annoyed The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' See, it's an airplane. That swims. And loves St. Louis.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{annoyed The Cheat noises and then walks off}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Fine, then. Strong Mad will appreciate it.

'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{off-screen}'' NO I WON'T!

''{The airplane sinks and [[New Paper]] comes down}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The peanut brittle could've swam better than that.

Quality Time with Cardboard Homestar

Maxamegalon2000 — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 14:43:21 GMT

Maxamegalon2000: rv

{{toonnav|Shorts|qualitytime|Ever and More!|Strong Bad Sings}}
[[Image:Quality Time.png|thumb|"Seriously, Marzipan, how do you get so smart?"]]

While Homestar is on "vacation", Marzipan spends some quality time with his cardboard double.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{film|Marzipan}}, [[Cardboard Homestar]], {{film|Strong Sad}}, {{film|Bubs}}, {{film|Homestar Runner}}, [[Cardboard Marzipan]] (Easter egg)

'''Places:''' [[Marzipan's House]], [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], [[The Field]] (with fence), [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]

'''Date:''' Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

'''Page title:''' Cut her some FLAX!

'''Running time:''' 1:48

== Transcript ==

''{Marzipan is sitting on her sofa holding a book called "Algonquin Stew".}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' You know, Homestar, I disagree with what you said about the underlying theme of Chapter 8 in this book. It's really not about man's struggle with double-sided tape. It's a metaphor for the Mesopotamian social hierarchy during the Bronze Age.

''{Shift view to see a cardboard cutout of Homestar wearing glasses and with a butterfly instead of a propeller on his cap. Marzipan supplies the cutout's voice, imitating Homestar's. When she does, she gains a heavy brow and an underbite.}''

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Seriously, Marzipan, how do you get so smart? Don't you see you are a smart?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Well thanks, Homestar. I guess I am kind of smart.

''{Title screen: "Quality Time with Cardboard Homestar"}''

''{Cut to a scene in Marshmallow's Last Stand. Strong Sad is playing violin and has a [[mustache]], and Cardboard Homestar has a green tie wrapped around where his neck is drawn.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, thank you, Homestar. This is so romantic.

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' You are so smart, Marzy-pan.

''{Scene of Marzipan adding flaxseed oil to something in a bowl in her kitchen.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' And I always like to add a drop of flaxseed oil. Gotta get those Omega-3s in!

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Marzipan, you're so smart.

''{Scene of Marzipan playing guitar and singing in the Field.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Marshmallows are fluffy; <br>

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' ''{also singing}'' You are so smart Marzipan.

''{Marzipan is at Bubs' Concession Stand. Bubs puts a carton of eggs on the counter.}''

'''BUBS:''' There you go, Marzipan! My last batch of organic batteries.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Thanks, Bubs!

'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' You shop so smart, Marzipan.

'''BUBS:''' Yeah. When is ol' Homestar gettin' back from vacation?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh. He, um, decided to stay for a couple more days. ''{Smiles nervously}'' Yeah, couple more days, yeah. ''{Smiles nervously again}''

''{Cut to Marzipan's living room. Her closet door is boarded shut. Homestar's voice comes from within.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Marzipan? Marzipan? Can you let me out now? I'm pretty sure there's no cake in here. It's been about three weeks now, and you'd think I would have found it. All I've been able to find in here is some coats, and a broom. Unless it's a broomcake! Is it a broomcake? Ooh, let's try this broomcake. ''{Noises of labored eating.} {Weakly}'' Uh, Marzipan? This is a really bad broomcake. ''{With renewed vigor}'' Ptooey! Can you let me out, please? Oh, wait- coatcake?

''{The scene goes black and "end" appears.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sing-song}'' Maybe it's a coatcake!

== Easter Eggs ==
*Click on the "e" in "end" to see a short scene with both cardboard characters.
*:''{Cardboard Homestar and Cardboard Marzipan are sitting on Marzipan's couch. Homestar and Marzipan can be seen barely onscreen, manipulating the characters}''
*:'''CARDBOARD MARZIPAN:''' And then I told him there was cake in the closet. And that's how I got some peace and quiet for three weeks.
*:'''CARDBOARD HOMESTAR:''' Marzipan, you're so smart.

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*The [[Wikipedia:Algonquin|Algonquins]] are a Native American tribe centered in [[Wikipedia:Quebec|Quebec]].
*[[Wikipedia:Mesopotamia|Mesopotamia]] refers to the region now known as modern Iraq, and some of the surrounding countries. The name comes from the Greek words "between" and "river", referring to the basins of the Euphrates and the Tigris rivers and the area in between.
*The [[Wikipedia:Bronze Age|Bronze Age]] is a period of prehistoric society following the [[Wikipedia:Stone Age|Stone Age]], when working with copper and tin was the most advanced form of metalwork.

== DNA Evidence ==

Is this easter egg more evidence that [[The Brothers Chaps|TBC]] read the wiki?{{User:Bassbone/sig}} 07:08, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:How so? They make the running gags, not us. My own speculation is that this will ultimately end in email 173 with something happening to The Paper. Or maybe in 175. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 07:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
::Yes, but the fact that in this email Homestar seems almost resigned to saying it leads me to believe that they've figured out we've been looking for it. Or perhaps it's there because they realized they've been putting DNA evidence into every email and they're making fun of themselves. I was just speculating, that's all. No need to jump down my throat.{{User:Bassbone/sig}} 07:30, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:::Not trying to jump down your throat. It would probably be really unhealthy anyways. They've got a great thread going on the [[Forum:10974|Forum]] about this, if you want to add your voice to the mix. Seems like most people think that this will culminate with sbemail 173. Personally though, I don't know how TBC could accidentally go 5 emails in a row with unconsciously writing DNA evidence into them. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 07:36, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

== Strong Sad being somewhat violent upon Strong Bad... ==

Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but is this the first time that Strong Sad has ever been violent upon Strong Bad? - {{User:Ren Foxx/sig}} 08:04, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:He did join the Homestarmy... But this is the first act of actual violence, according to [[Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship]].
::He also yelled at Strong Bad and Strong Mad in [[Experimental Film]]. Not physical violence, but close. [[User:0rion|0rion]] 11:27, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

== Preloader? ==

Is it just me, or does this toon not have a preloader? Might be worth watching to see if this changes. {{User:Blendage/sig}} 10:31, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:Oh, you mean the Loading screen? There's one in the Flash file, but you're right, it's not used. This happened recently in another toon, but I don't remember which one offhand.... {{User:Trey56/sig}} 10:34, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
::It was [[your funeral]], I think. {{User:Shwoo/sig}} 10:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:::Yeah, that's the one — good call. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 10:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
::::The script for frame 1 simply says <pre>ifFrameLoaded(15) gotoAndPlay(16);</pre>. I assume that TBC simply forgot to subsitute 15 for a frame number that makes more sense.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 10:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:::::Nope, there's definitely a loading screen. I distinctly remember it taking a longer-than-usual time to load. [[User:Ppk01|Ppk01]] 12:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

== Strong Sad: Executive Lawyer? ==

Is Strong Sad's lawyer alter-ego part of the Rough Copy TV Show sequence, or is that really his profession? [[User:Strong Sader|Strong Sader]] 12:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:The scene with Strong Sad the lawyer was after the Rough Copy opening credits, so I don't think it was part of it. It might be his profession, but he was a temp in the last email. {{User:Shwoo/sig}} 12:49, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Does anyone think that this toon is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Todd Goldman|Todd Goldman]] copyright infringement accusations? It's been getting a lot of attention in the webcomic community.

==Homestar's teeth==
HOMESTAR HAS TEETH!!!!! WHAT IS THE WERLD COMING TOOO???????!!!!--{{User:Homfrog/sig}} 11:09, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
:I thought it was cute. {{User:Cutepetsrus/sig}} 11:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

==Whyyyy??==
It seems like every new e-mail nowadays has a little part of an e-mail that I sent- but mine never really gets answered! Like, a while ago, I sent Strong Bad an email about getting a talkshow- now he has one? Ahhh!!! {{User:Cutepetsrus/sig}} 11:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
: Well, I did ask him about a theme song once... however, it was a ''personal'' theme song, and before [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]] came out (which sorta answered the question.) And I asked him a question relating to [[alternate universe]]s, but again, it wasn't really related to the 'toon in question when I asked it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 12:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
::Strong Bad gets 3000 emails a day, according to the Wall Street Journal. The chances are pretty high that they get questions about theme songs every other day.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 12:35, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
:::wall street journal??!!??, who cares about what some funny guy with the last name street thinks, and why are you reading his journal anywho?{{User:Csours/sig}} 13:56, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
::::Yes, I know. It's just aggrivating. And, Csours- ''I'' care about it, because I just happen to like the Wall Street Journal. {{User:Cutepetsrus/sig}} 14:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
::::Wally street is perhaps the coolest guy i ever met. and its his fault for publishing his journal in the first place!-- [[User:Jhonka|Jhonka]]

==Strong Bad e-mail will be right back...==
The person who said Strong Bad e-mail will be right back after these messages was clearly not Mike or Matt or Missy. Could it have been Jackie? {{User:Cutepetsrus/sig}} 11:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:Jackie whom? [[User:Ppk01|Ppk01]] 11:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

::[[Jackie Chapman]], of course (there is a search bar for one to utilize) <3 . —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 12:47, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:It sounds like the same voice as Nibbles, at any rate. Probably Matt or Mike sped up digitally. [[User:Octan|Octan]] 12:58, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

After a brief listen to the seniorprom outtake, I think that it was Missy, without being 100% sure.[[User:Lord-z|Lord-z]] 12:15, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:Sounded like Missy/Marzy to me. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 15:13, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

::Yeah, that's what I thought, but isn't Marzi's voice a bit more 'squeaky'? If you know what I mean... [[User:InvaderJem]]
::: Homestar and Strong Bad are done by the same voice actor, but sound almost nothing alike. I don't think it was meant to be Marzipan, specifically, but probably Missy. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:50, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

== Easter Egg ==

They only put in one easter egg. I'm letting them get away with this for one reason: There is NOTHING more fun than making The Cheat's tooth do the Shaheeeeeen effect.

:Shaheen! --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:45, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== 14 degrees below zero. ==
(degrees removed because they's there now)
:also, the transcript says that the first guest is hilarity, i think he said celerity. because celerity would be funnier.
::(rio grande comment also removed for the same reason)
{{User:Csours/sig}} 14:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

==Location, Location, Location==

When Strong Bad says "south of the border flavor", wouldn't this mean the Free Country USA is above Canada? [[User:Nintendogs123|Nintendogs123]]
:No, it means Strong Bad doesn't know his geography very well. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
::read the last thing i wrote, right above this.{{User:Csours/sig}} 15:19, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Hey Dog thing- It's 'cause of how he says Ontario. Wit a Spainish accent. So there you go. [[User:Elvis|Elvis]] 19:26, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Plus, if he was above Canada, he would be practically on the North pole, rending shortlessness, pool time, and Summer impossible.--{{User:The4sword/sig}} 01:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== Well, There Go My Hopes... ==

I sent in an email talking about theme songs to Strong Bad, and when it said "theme song" on the main page, my heart fricken skipped a beat. But alas, it wasn't mine. Dang you and your shiny last name Shaween! - {{User:Homsar7/sig}}

== Inside References and the Trivia section ==

A great deal of the Inside References are referring to the credits. I put up a couple internal links in the credits, but should I move more of them? Or take them out and let Inside References continue to be huge?
:Could Tim Timmers be a reference to Tip Tappers?

==That hit the nail on the head==

I really don't like the fact that many shows go to commercials right after the intro, then have this thing that tells you they'll be right back. You could've told us that ''before'' you went to commercials. Also, I don't like the distorted end credis and muted end song just to advertize what's next. Can't they wait until after the credits?

The one thing they didn't do was those annoying popup ads some TV shows seem to have nowadays. [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 16:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:They did that with ''Walking with Trogdor'' in [[myths & legends]].{{User:Bassbone/sig}} 17:08, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

==Senor Cardgage wearing a hat==

This is the first time we see [[Senor Cardgage]] wearing a hat. He looks like a rascal wearing a backwards cap and glasses; course, he's always wearing glasses. —[[User:Brian Barbera|Brian Barbera]] 20:41, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

== First Homestar teeth sighting ==

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt this the first time we see his teeth? We put marzipan's first teeth-sighting in whatever article that was, so i think we should do it for homestar too. --[[User:TrogdorTSL|Tyler]] 20:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
: Uh, check the Trivia section. It's been up there for a while... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 21:01, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

== NOLA connection ==

Probably unnotable for the main page, but it's interesting that both the Nevilles and the Marsalises are native to New Orleans. Thought I'd just mention it here. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:18, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:While we're at it: This is a reference to the Neville brothers how? Just because they're musicians and their name is "Neville"? I don't get it.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 21:35, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

::They're quite famous here in the U.S. (especially Aaron), and their style is the same kind of pop ballad as the theme song. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:03, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

:::OK, convinced :-) {{User:Loafing/sig}} 23:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

::::I might add that I have had the opportunity to play with members of each family (Charles and Delfeayo respectively) but that's ''certainly'' not notable on the main page! Still, it's [[kind of cool]]. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:17, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== Tiny toon adventures ==

I am 100% sertaint that the anounser describing the cheat comandos is the same line from the themes song from Tiny Toon adventures. Im gonna add this once the editin gdies down.
[[User:Cessna Man!|Cessna Man!]] 22:03, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
:It's already mentioned in Real World References. {{User:Saturn/sig}} 22:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
::Yah, I saw that right after I posted this. My bad.
[[User:Cessna Man!|Cessna Man!]] 22:10, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

== Fact Merge ==

# In the theme song we see a close-up on how Strong Bad types with boxing gloves.
# The email shown in the first theme song asks Strong Bad to draw Trogdor again – one of the commonly sent emails that will not be answered.

We could probably merge that into one, seeing as they are both emails that will not be answered (explaining how Strong Bad types with his boxing gloves and redoing an old e-mail). My suggestion: "Seeing how Strong Bad types with his boxing glove, and an e-mailer asking Strong Bad to redo an e-mail are both examples of e-mails that will never be answered". Somebody better at Wikipedianese will have to rewrite that. [[User:Swimma Dan|Swimma Dan]] 23:38, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
:Strong Bad typing with boxing gloves on is not a reference to emails asking him about it. It's simply what he does. {{User:Loafing/sig}} 00:21, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== Super Bad ==

I just wondeling, is the way Johnathan Shaheen adresses SB a reference to [http://www.superbad.com/ superbad.com]?--{{User:The4sword/sig}} 01:48, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

:It's arguable that since it was the email writer who made a possible reference, not TBC, it's a moot point, and it's not worth noting. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:13, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

== Get Your Degree ==

I tried to go to [[www.cgnuonline-eniversity.edu/]] and got nothing. Someone (preferably the brothers Chaps, but really any of us) needs to do something about that. Or did I mistype?-- [[User:Point7Q|Point7Q]] 02:08, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ''This'' is Strongbadia.

''{Screen cuts to Bubs' Concession Stand, with a similar cutout for Bubs labeled "bubs".}''

''{Cut back to Strongbadia.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Just this.

''{Cut back to the still-dimmed Lappy.}''

'''SECOND STRONG BAD:''' We clear? Now gimme five.

''{The second Strong Bad holds up his left hand, and then disappears as the rest of the screen returns to normal and the original Strong Bad finishes reading the email. He reads "CA" as "Cactus Area."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' I'm not exactly sure how hot it is round here, Tomby. But we do have an old-timey, made-uppy, no-worky way of finding out.

''{Cut to Strong Sad, sleeping on a brick wall. A book labeled "Mr. Chekhov" is next to him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' We carefully place a spoonful...

''{Strong Bad and Strong Mad rise from behind Strong Sad, and Strong Bad places a spoon of sauce on Strong Sad's head.}

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ... of hoisin sauce on Strong Sad's disturbing soft-serve flip. And then we just... ask him.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey!

''{Strong Bad hits Strong Sad, who wakes up.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Trundle bed. How hot it is right now?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Current temperature: ninety-seven, ninety-eight degrees. Humidity: twenty-five percent. ''{Strong Bad and Strong Mad slowly start to leave, making a tapping noise as they do.}'' Barometric pressure: thirty point oh five inches mercury. I'm gonna eat this spoonful of hoisin sauce.

''{Strong Sad grabs the spoon from off his head and eats the sauce. Cut to the edge of the wall, where Strong Bad and Strong Mad are standing.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You hear that?! The high nineties!

''{Strong Bad pulls out a paper titled "Monkey D's Summer Tips". The screen cuts to a closeup of the paper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know what that means!

''{Cut to Strong Bad and Strong Mad. Music starts.}''

'''STRONG BAD AND STRONG MAD:''' COOL TIME, POOL TIME!!!

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's the pool that we've always had... that we use all the time... and the school has always had an elevator!

''{Cut to Marzipan's couch. Marzipan is sitting on it. Homestar Runner pops up in the foreground.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool time!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Pool time!

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand, where Coach Z is leaning on the counter.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Cool time?

'''BUBS:''' Pool time!

''{Cut to the Field, where Pom Pom and The Poopsmith are standing.}''

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles}''

''{The Poopsmith gives him the thumbs-up. Cut to the Pool. Strong Bad is sitting in the lifeguard's chair. Coach Z walks past in the background with a barrel over him. Bubs floats with inflatable toys on his arms. The Cheat skims across the surface of the water quickly twice. Cut to a closeup on Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, ya little sacks of crap, just so I never have to use this weird foamy thing, ''{He kicks a floatation device hanging from his perch.}'' lemme 'splain the pool rules.

''{A paper reading "POOL RULES" appears. Strong Bad reads along.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Welcome to our 'ool. (Notice there is no "Take a crap in it" in it. Please keep it that way. 

''{Cut to The Poopsmith, wearing a [[Nebulon]] flotation device and testing the water with his foot.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Poopsmith, don't even try it.

''{A Nebulon-esque sound is heard as The Poopsmith hangs his head. Cut back to Strong Bad. The Pool Rules sheet returns, and the following rules get added with illustrations as Strong Bad mentions them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Also, no rough-horsing, no house-rousing, no butt-patting.

'''COACH Z:''' ''{offscreen}'' Aw, nuts!

'''STRONG BAD:''' And no running, no diving, no swimming.

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But that last one is not very widely enforced. But most importantly, after you eat, wait three full days, get a complete physical, have an ear candling, and press UP, A and START before re-entering the pool.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Strong Bad, what did you put in this pool water?

''{Strong Bad looks at Marzipan, whose ponytail has a green tinge and the very tip of it is burning away. The burning is slowly making its way up her ponytail, burning it off during the whole scene.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I dunno... chemicals, whatever was under the sink.

''{Cut to a pile of chemical containers and a bottle of Awesome Sauce.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You gotta put chemicals in the pool, right? That's what they say. ''(Pause)'' And that is ''all'' what they say.

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{suddenly smiling}'' Well, whatever it is, it's doing wonders for my hair. I can feel it tingling.

''{Cut to stormy clouds, faint flashes of lightning, and the sound of thunder. Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{in sing-song voice}'' Lightning. ''{in a normal voice}'' You guys know the drill.

''{Cut to Bubs, Strong Mad, and The Cheat leaving the pool}''

'''STRONG MAD and THE CHEAT:''' ''{groans and The Cheat noises}''

'''BUBS''': Man!

''{Homestar Runner, Coach Z, and The King of Town walk through the pool carrying a TV antenna, a barrel and golf clubs, and an umbrella, respectively. They stop in the middle of the pool.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER, COACH Z and THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{sighs and groans}''

''{Cut to Strong Bad talking with Bubs at the lifeguard chair}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So later on anybody wanna get together a game of "Sharks and Minnows"? "Einstein and [muffled]"? "Pregnant and seventeen"?

'''BUBS:''' ''{points toward the diving board}'' Uh-oh! Looks like we should have been playin' "Keep Strong Mad off the freakin' high dive for Pete's sake, man!"

==Easter Eggs==
* Click on CA when Strong Bad says "Sunnyvale, Cactus Area" to see a menu:

<blockquote>
Cactus Area<br>
"The most boring Mexican restaurant on Earth"<br>

(Yes, we know what salsa is now!)</blockquote>

* Click on the Lappy's screen at the end to see Strong Sad continuing his weather forecast:

:'''STRONG SAD:''' Wind south, southwest at 10 miles per hour. Sunset at 8:45 PM. ''{the King of Town slowly comes up behind him}'' Baseball games at two and, uh, three. ''{King of Town puts a cherry on Strong Sad's head and pulls out a can of "Lard Wipt"}''

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}
===Explanations===
*Strong Bad's explanation that Strong Badia consists only of the vacant lot he claimed as his own is probably for the benefit of emailers and others who mistakenly think that "Strong Badia", rather than [[Free Country, USA]], is the name for the region where he and the rest of the gang live.
*[[Wikipedia:Ear candling|Ear candling]], also known as ear coning, is a folk remedy performed by using the heat from a lit candle to melt accumulated ear wax and debris.
*[[Wikipedia:Hoisin sauce|Hoisin sauce]] is a type of Chinese dipping sauce made from soybeans, garlic and spices.

===Inside References===
*The "ds" on the Homestar Runner cutout probably stands for "Duckshirt" or "Dumbstar", two [[Nicknames#Homestar Runner|nicknames]] Strong Bad has used for Homestar in the past.
*The Poopsmith uses a [[Nebulon]] floating tube; when Strong Bad tells him that he can't get in the pool, the Nebulon [[Sound Effects|sound effect]] ensues.
*Strong Bad previously fell through the roof in [[pom pom]].
*Graw Mad is a reference to [[the facts]].
*The disk in the [[Floppy Disk Container|floppy disk container]] is the same one found in [[disconnected]].
*Strong Bad's tan lines were first seen in [[lures & jigs]].
*The Cheat looks inflated in the pool, a reference to [[helium]].
*In the pile of chemicals we can see some "Roach Killa" from [[bedtime story]].

===Real-World References===
*This email was released during an actual heat wave in the [[Wikipedia:2006 United States heat wave|United States]], Canada and much of [[Wikipedia:2006 European heat wave|Europe]].
*Strong Sad's book reads "Mr. Chekhov", a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Russia|Russian]] writer and physician [[Wikipedia:Anton Chekhov|Anton Chekhov]].
*The second item on "[[Monkey D]]'s Summer tips" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Slip 'N Slide|Slip 'N Slide]] water toy.
*Strong Bad's advice to "press UP, A and START before reentering the pool" is a reference to the [[Nintendo|NES]] games [[Wikipedia:Metroid|Metroid]], [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda|The Legend of Zelda]], and [[Wikipedia:Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]], in which the game's progress can be saved or a game progress password would be brought up by pausing (pressing "START") on the first controller and simultaneously pressing "UP" and "A" on the second controller. It is also a reference to the code from Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy in which you enter Up+A+Start on the title screen to play the game in "Extra Mode" where enemy sprites are different and it's harder.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Also, no rough-horsing, no house-rousing, no butt-patting.

'''COACH Z:''' ''{offscreen}'' Aw, nuts!

'''STRONG BAD:''' And no running, no diving, no swimming.

''{Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But that last one is not very widely enforced. But most importantly, after you eat, wait three full days, get a complete physical, have an ear candling, and press UP, A and START before reentering the pool.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Strong Bad, what did you put in this pool water?

''{Strong Bad looks at Marzipan, whose ponytail has a green tinge and the very tip of it is burning away. The burning is slowly making its way up her ponytail, burning it off during the whole scene.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I dunno... chemicals, whatever was under the sink.

''{Cut to a pile of chemical containers and a bottle of Awesome Sauce.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You gotta put chemicals in the pool, right? That's what they say. ''(Pause)'' And that is ''all'' what they say.

'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, whatever it is, it's doing wonders for my hair. I can feel it tingling.

==Easter Eggs==
* Click on CA when Strong Bad says "Sunnyvale, Cactus Area" to see a menu:

<blockquote>
Cactus Area<br>
"The most boring Mexican restaurant on Earth"<br>

(Yes, we know what salsa is now!)</blockquote>

* Click on the Lappy's screen at the end to see Strong Sad continuing his weather forecast:

:'''STRONG SAD:''' Wind south, southwest at 10 miles per hour. Sunset at 8:45 PM. ''{the King of Town slowly comes up behind him}'' Baseball games at two and, uh, three. ''{King of Town puts a cherry on Strong Sad's head and pulls out a can of "Lard Wipt"}''

==Fun Facts==
{{checkstuffpage}}
===Explanations===
*Strong Bad's explanation that Strong Badia consists only of the vacant lot he claimed as his own is probably for the benefit of emailers and others who mistakenly think that "Strong Badia", rather than [[Free Country, USA]], is the name for the region where he and the rest of the gang live.
*[[Wikipedia:Ear candling|Ear candling]], also known as ear coning, is a folk remedy performed by using the heat from a lit candle to melt accumulated ear wax and debris.
*[[Wikipedia:Hoisin sauce|Hoisin sauce]] is a type of Chinese dipping sauce made from soybeans, garlic and spices.

===Inside References===
*The "ds" on the Homestar Runner cutout probably stands for "Duckshirt" or "Dumbstar", two [[Nicknames#Homestar Runner|nicknames]] Strong Bad has used for Homestar in the past.
*The Poopsmith uses a [[Nebulon]] floating tube; when Strong Bad tells him that he can't get in the pool, the Nebulon [[Sound Effects|sound effect]] ensues.
*Strong Bad previously fell through the roof in [[pom pom]].
*Graw Mad is a reference to [[the facts]].
*The disk in the [[Floppy Disk Container|floppy disk container]] is the same one found in [[disconnected]].
*Strong Bad's tan lines were first seen in [[lures & jigs]].
*The Cheat looks inflated in the pool, a reference to [[helium]].
*In the pile of chemicals we can see some "Roach Killa" from [[bedtime story]].

===Real-World References===
*This e-mail was released during an actual [[Wikipedia:2006 United States heat wave|heat wave]] in the United States.
*Strong Sad's book reads "Mr. Chekhov", a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Russia|Russian]] writer and physician [[Wikipedia:Anton Chekhov|Anton Chekhov]].
*The second item on "[[Monkey D]]'s Summer tips" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Slip 'N Slide|Slip 'N Slide]] water toy.
*Strong Bad's advice to "press UP, A and START before reentering the pool" is a reference to the [[Nintendo|NES]] games [[Wikipedia:Metroid|Metroid]], [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda|The Legend of Zelda]], and [[Wikipedia:Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]], in which the game's progress can be saved or a game progress password would be brought up by pausing (pressing "START") on the first controller and simultaneously pressing "UP" and "A" on the second controller. It is also a reference to the code from Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy in which you enter Up+A+Start on the title screen to play the game in "Extra Mode" where enemy sprites are different and it's harder.
