'''Page Title:''' Ketchup Fountain SOUL'd Separately!

==Transcript==

''{The toon begins at the King of Town's castle, where a Halloween party is taking place at night. There is a blood fountain in the foreground, a paper ghost reading "oh, boo" has been stuck on the wall, and a paper spider reading "8 legs" seems to have fallen off the wall onto the floor. We pan right to see Bubs, Coach Z, Homestar Runner, Marzipan, Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat all wearing their Halloween costumes. Guitar music is heard in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ohh man, you guys! I can't believe we actually came to the King of Town's crappy Halloween party!

''{The King of Town walks in.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' You boys having a good time? ''{close up on the King of Town; music fades out}'' Try the ketchup fountain yet?

''{Cut to the ketchup fountain, which depicts shooting ketchup out of a human head. Next to the fountain are some fries and a bottle of ketchup.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This party sucks, old man! ''{cut back to Strong Bad, Strong Mad, The Cheat and the King of Town}'' This is Halloween! Where's the decaying flesh? The rotting corpses? ''{close up on Strong Bad}'' The stink of death!

''{The Poopsmith comes into the frame holding a rotting skull made of [[whatsit]] on his shovel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uhh... not exactly what I was talking about.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Well, fine! ''{close up on the King of Town}'' If stinky dead people is all you want, why don't you go hang out in that 200-acre cemetery that's been behind my castle all this time?

''{Cut back to Strong Bad and the rest. The camera zooms out of the window, revealing the cemetery.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh-jig-ga-ma-WHAT?

''{Music continues. Title appears: "Most in the Graveyard", "the credits for the 9th Homestar Halloween Cartoon..." "...are the same as the first 8!"}''

''{Cut to the Cemetery entrance. Everyone is there, with Strong Bad and The Cheat shown to be the last to arrive.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' We have a cemetery? This is awesome! How come nobody ever told me about this place?

''{Close up on Strong Sad}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' You didn't know about this place? Man, if it weren't for the library, I'd spend—

''{As Strong Sad pats his stomach, we cut back to the previous wide shot}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' We have a ''who cares''?

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{excited}'' Yeah! It still uses ''{points upwards}'' Dewey Decimal and everything! Uh—''{suddenly realises Strong Bad's statement, and looks dejected}'' Aww... I hate it when you do that.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah ha ha! ''{close up on Strong Bad and The Cheat}'' C'mon guys, let's go find a suitable stiff to exhume and reanimate.

''{Everyone starts walking into the cemetery grounds. Cut to Homestar and Pom Pom as Marzipan walks past.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh man, Pom Pom. ''{they start walking}'' This is gonna be so great. First we'll hit Space Mountain, then over to Mr. Toad's, ''{Pom Pom looks annoyed}'' then Tom Sawyer's Island, and don't forget: we parked in the Goofy lot!

''{Cut back to the entrance. The King of Town and the Poopsmith remain.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' You think I should have told them about that carnivorous undead sheep that prowls the graveyard?

''{As the King of Town speaks, a view of a hill within the graveyard is shown, with a sheep shadow bleating loudly at the top of it. Foreboding music is heard. Cut to Strong Sad and Marzipan.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' All right now, Marzipan, remember: ''{raises finger}'' we have to hold our breath in front of the dead. ''{close up on Strong Sad}'' Ready? Go!

''{Strong Sad tries to hold his breath, but immediately exhales loudly and starts gasping.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, nevermind! Sorry, the dead!

''{Cut back to previous shot}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' This place is perfect for my Intro to Photography class. ''{lowers her guitar and pulls out a Polaroid camera from [[Hammerspace]]}'' I've already hit the railroad tracks, and an abandoned factory. This will complete the amateur trifecta! ''{looks through the view-finder briefly}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hang on, I think I got it!

''{Strong Sad tries to hold his breath a second time, and again immediately fails. Cut to Bubs and Coach Z, standing in front of a bunch of graves. More music plays.}''

'''BUBS:''' Hey, look! There's my great-great-grandpappy's cousin Harold! He discovered the "Bait and Switch!" ''{the two graves are shown}'' Ooh, and this is his brother Mort! He invented "No Money Down".

''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' All your dead relatives are making me wanna start one of them horror-core rap groups. I could pull on a hockey mask and call myself... ''{a CD case pops up briefly reading "THE GRAVEYARDIGANZ — Featuring COACH ZGOR MORTIZZZ" with three Coach Z heads wearing hockey masks pictured}'' "Coach Zgor Mortizzz!"

'''BUBS:''' Hey, man! Show some respect! ''{points to a third tombstone, which is shown to read "ZGOR — another relative of Bubs"}''

''{Cut to Homestar and Pom Pom walking along. Happy music plays.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, Pom Pom, now that I know that we're not in a theme park, I say we try to find that Green Gobalin. I heard that if you find him right at midnight, he'll spin all your Halloween candies into gold! ''{cut to a wide shot; Homestar frowns}'' Instead of just doing that regular old two-bit dance. ''{imitates the Green Goblin's dance}'' Dee dee-lee, dee-lee dee-lee dee-lee dee-lee!

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles while pointing to a nearby landmark.}''

''{Cut to close up of Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, that's a great place to start looking!

''{Cut to a silhouetted shot of Homestar and Pom Pom walking uphill.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I wonder why they call it "Snarling Hungry Sheep Hill".

''{We pan upwards toward a swinging wooden sign labelled "Snarling Hungry Sheep Hill". Foreboding music is heard. Cut to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat, all near more graves.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I mean, look at some of these names! Jim-Nealius Hog-chigger? Hebby Screbby? Is there some secret period in history when hobos ruled the Earth that I'm unaware of?

''{Close up on Strong Mad, who jumps up in frustration and lands with a crash, causing the earth to shake}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' YOU SAID WE'D GET A ZOMBIE SLAVE!

''{Cut back to previous shot}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't worry, Thwomp Mad. We will. We just gotta find somebody with a cool name. Let's keep looking.

''{We see Strong Sad posing by a gravestone, through the viewfinder of Marzipan's camera.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Almost... a little less lurk, and a little more skulk.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Like...''this?'' ''{hunches forward more}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''There'' we go.

''{She photographs him. The Polaroid develops, but Strong Sad is missing from the picture.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' You're not showing up in these pictures. ''{several other Polaroids are pulled up where Strong Sad is absent}'' Strong Sad, ''{cut to Marzipan}'' is there something you need to tell me? Are you dead?

''{Cut back to Strong Sad}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{jubilantly}'' Whoa, maybe I am! ''{happy music plays as Strong Sad raises his finger}'' I finally willed myself to death! ''{smiles}'' This is ''great!''

''{Cut to Coach Z standing to the left of a grave.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Hey, Bubs! Check it out! You're not the only one with relatives here! My great good-aunt is buried right under our feet!

''{Cut to Bubs standing to the right of a grave.}''

'''BUBS:''' Naw, you come over here and look at this! I want you to see my great-great granduncle. He invented "No Payments till 2010!"

'''COACH Z:''' ''{pats Bubs on his right shoulder from offscreen}'' Hi there.

''{Bubs looks to the left. We pan left to find that he and Coach Z were referring to the same grave.}''

'''BUBS:''' Wait! Hold on a sec'! Are you telling me my uncle is your aunt?

'''COACH Z:''' Seems that way! ''{close up on Coach Z}'' ''{jubilantly}'' Bubs! This is great news! This means we're brothers! I always knew it!

''{Cut to Coach Z and Bubs}''

'''BUBS:''' Or it means you're a liar! Besides, even if it ''were'' true, we'd only be sixth-fourth-second-fifth cousins, thrice removed!

''{Cut to previous shot}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, phew. So your sister and I can—

''{Bubs punches him, knocking him to the ground}''

'''BUBS:''' Rah!<br>
'''COACH Z:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Woooooh!

''{Cut to a tombstone reading "Here Lies Plutis". Music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' "Plutis?!" What is wrong with you dead people?!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, The Cheat and Strong Mad by the grave.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't want a reanimated corpse named ''Plutis'' doing my bidding! ''{close up on Strong Bad}'' Doesn't any dead body with a good name around here want to be reanimated with these jumper cables and pickled monkey fingers? ''{he hold up the items as he says them}''

''{Cut to previous shot. Strong Mad jumps, again causing the ground to shake as before. The jumper cables and pickled monkey fingers fly out of Strong Bad's hands.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' ZGOR! I VOTE ZGOR!

''{Cut back to Homestar and Pom Pom, both peeping out from behind a larger gravestone.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, Pom Pom. It's almost midnight. Ready with the Halloween candy?

''{Pom Pom gets out the candy. The viewpoint then cuts to the inside of a bush, focusing on Homestar and Pom Pom from a distance. Breathing can be heard distinctively.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Man, I can't wait to try out gold whatchamacallits. Gold...oh yes, Snickers.

''{The monster is revealed to be the Carnivorous Undead Sheep; it jumps out of the bush into the night sky and lands on the ground. It bleats loudly. Dramatic music plays. Cut to Homestar and Pom Pom, the latter is trembling with fear and holding Homestar in his arm}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' AHH!! The Cheat's got rabies again!

''{Pom Pom pulls out a handgun.}''

''{Cut to Coach Z and Bubs, the former being held up by his collar, the latter flexing his arm and looking very angry.}''

'''COACH Z:''' What was that?

''{Cut to Strong Sad and Marzipan. Strong Sad is holding his breath yet again.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh my goodness!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{turning to look at The Cheat, surprised}'' Cheat, you got rabies again?

''{Cut back to the entrance. The King of Town and the Poopsmith haven't moved.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Uh oh. Let's beat it, Poopsmith!

''{The Poopsmith nods and they both leave the graveyard. Cut back to Homestar, Pom Pom and the undead sheep.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yahoo, seriously, Pom Pom! I'm about to pee my pants!

''{The sheep bleats second time. The Goblin flies down from the night sky and lands on top of the Carnivorous Undead Sheep, popping its head off. The music stops. Cut back to Pom Pom and Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' The Goblin! You saved us! ''{close up}'' Now are you gonna turn all of our 100 Grands into a hundred grand?

''{Cut back to The Goblin, who shakes his head. Cut back to the previous shot.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{looking upset}'' But I thought at midnight you—

''{Cut back to The Goblin, who does his dance as his tune plays.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappointed}'' Oh, man!

''{The music becomes a techno-remix of the Goblin Dance music and The Goblin continues to dance. Disco lights show up during the dance.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hooray! ''{cut back to Homestar and Pom Pom}'' Extended dance remix of the Gobalin song!

''{Homestar moves away from the grave and we cut to see him dancing with the Goblin. As we pan right, Pom Pom pulls out two handguns. Then cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat walking in to find the sheep's body.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa, check out that awesome dead undead sheep!

''{Strong Bad and The Cheat turn to look behind them. Cut to The King of Town.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Some say it's an escaped laboratory test animal. They call it "Subject X".

''{Cut back to Strong Bad and The Cheat.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's the coolest name I ever heard of! The Cheat! Grab the jumper cables and— ''{looking downward}'' Hey! Where'd the pickled monkey fingers go?

''{Cut to a silhouetted shot of The King of Town in the distance, running through the graveyard over the hills.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' I don't knoooooow!

''{Cut to Pom Pom and Homestar, who is still dancing}''

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

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{stops dancing}'' You said it, old buddy! Happy Carousel of Progress, Pom Pom. ''{Pom Pom looks annoyed}'' I mean, Halloween, Pom Pom.

''{Fade to one of Marzipan's attempted photos of Strong Sad, with the caption: 'In loving memory of Strong Sad "willed himself to death 10/31/2008"'. The photograph moves with the final trumpet riffs. Cut to the standard ending scene of the various characters wearing their costumes.}''

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*Coach Z referring to himself as "Coach Zgor Mortizzz" is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Rigor_mortis|Rigor Mortis]].

===Trivia===
*The sign at the front of the cemetery reads "Always Been Here Acres".
*The loading screen says "[[Irregular Loading Screens|He was a real load]]."
*Mort, the name of one of Bubs' relatives, is also the [[French]] word for "death".

===Remarks===
*Bubs' arms are rendered in an old, bent style.
*The King of Town wears the Hello Kitty bow near the opposite ear from where it is traditionally placed.
*When Strong Bad asks The Cheat if he has rabies, he skips the "The" portion of the question, which is part of The Cheat's full name.

===Goofs===
*At the beginning of the cartoon, Coach Z's foot will disappear before the screen scrolls off of him.
*At the end of the toon when you scroll over Coach Z, it says "Coach Z DJ Lance Rock," missing "as."
*In the second scene with Bubs and Coach Z, Bubs' eyes appear slightly farther apart than they usually are.
*At the end of the toon when you scroll over Marzipan, "Stevie Ray Vaughan" is misspelled as "Stevie Ray Vaughn."

===Fixed Goofs===
*When you clicked on Strong Bad at the end, his lips didn't move when he says, "Uh, I don't know."
*The bubble containing Homsar's description appeared on top of Bubs' body but under his head.
*At the end of the toon, one of Homsar's legs was his normal one and the other was his costume foot (Captain Caveman's).

===Glitches===
*At the end of the toon (if you clicked The Poopsmith to activate the Homsar egg), if you click on Strong Bad, Homestar, Marzipan, Bubs, The Poopsmith, Coach Z, Strong Sad, or the King of Town, Homsar still shows his scroll-over information while another character comments on their costume. This is because he is a movie clip that overlays the scene.

===Inside References===
*Like the previous Halloween special, [[Jibblies 2]], Strong Bad has a costume that makes him [[Strong Bad Smiling|smile]] throughout the whole toon.
*The page title has an instance of [['d]].
*This is another reference to [[Strong Sad's Death]].
*Homsar's lines in his Easter egg are a reference to his [[character video]].
*Homestar's line, "Seriously, Pom Pom, I'm about to pee my pants", is the same line he said in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*Strong Sad [[Strong Sad Smiling|smiles]] when he thinks he has "willed [himself] to death".
*Homestar Runner again fails to [[What are you supposed to be?|identify the cast's costumes]]. This even includes [[Homestar Runner and Homestar Runner's Relationship|himself]].
*For the first time since [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], two characters (in this case, Marzipan and The King of Town) have [[Cross-Dressing|cross-dressed]] for Halloween. This is the fifth Halloween toon in which Marzipan dressed as a man.
*Pom Pom, in nod to his costume choice, is once again seen brandishing [[guns]].
*The candy that Pom Pom produces is a bag of [[SBLOUNSKCHED! Bar|SBLOUNSKCHED!]] Fun Size.
*The King of Town running over the hills while silhouetted is a reference to [[Old Intro 2]].
*The music heard when the Carnivorous Undead Sheep approaches Homestar and Pom Pom is taken from [[Jibblies 2]].
*Homestar's message for his Halloween costume, "Yahoo Serious(ly)", refers to his [[Catch Phrases#Homestar Runner|catch phrase]], "[[Seriously]]".
*Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was previously referenced in [[vacation]].
*This is the second time a character (Strong Sad) has struggled to hold his breath; the first occurred in Halloween Fairstival when Homestar couldn't hold his breath.
*The sound Strong Sad makes when he fails to hold his breath is reminiscent of the sound [[Sickly Sam]] makes when he disappears.
*The King of Town has a bottle of [[Quite Fancy 'Chup]], previously seen in an Easter Egg in [[funny]]. The [[french fries]] are also identical.
*The Cheat had rabies, as Homestar and Strong Bad remark, in the email [[shapeshifter]].
*The ketchup fountain at the beginning does not have ketchup, so the red liquid coming out may be another instance of [[blood]].

===Real-World References===
*[[Wikipedia:Space Mountain (Disneyland)|Space Mountain]], [[Wikipedia:Mr. Toad's Wild Ride|Mr. Toad's]], [[Wikipedia:Pirate's Lair on Tom Sawyer Island|Tom Sawyer's Island]], and [[Wikipedia:Carousel of Progress|Carousel of Progress]] are all attractions at [[Disney]] [[Wikipedia:Walt Disney Parks and Resorts|theme parks]], specifically [[Wikipedia:Magic Kingdom|the Magic Kingdom]] and [[Wikipedia:Disneyland|Disneyland]]. However, neither park currently contains all four attractions. The [[Wikipedia:Goofy|Goofy]] lot refers to the parks' parking lots being named after Disney characters.
*Homestar's line "he'll spin all your Halloween candy into gold" is a reference to the fairy tale ''[[Wikipedia:Rumpelstiltskin|Rumpelstiltskin]],'' where the title character had the ability to spin straw into gold.
* Coach Z's album cover featuring him wearing a hockey mask is a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:Friday the 13th (franchise)|Friday the 13th]]'' series of horror movies. The band name "The Graveyardiganz" refers to ''[[Wikipedia:The Backyardigans|the Backyardigans]]'', a music-based TV series, as well as to the horrorcore rap band [[Wikipedia:Gravediggaz|Gravediggaz]].
*The King of Town's line when clicking on the Poopsmith at the end refers to ''[[Wikipedia:Futurama|Futurama]]'' character [[Wikipedia:Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor Farnsworth]]'s catchphrase "Good news, everyone", which is more often than not followed by bad news. Farnsworth employs Dr. Zoidberg.
*Strong Bad's line "Is there some secret period in history when hobos ruled the Earth that I'm unaware of?" could possibly refer to [[Wikipedia:John Hodgman|John Hodgman's]] book "The Areas of My Expertise", which features a non-factual factual account of such an era as a major section of the book.
*At the end, in the Strong Sad Easter egg, Strong Sad is mistaken for Ma Fratelli from ''[[Wikipedia:The Goonies|The Goonies]]''.
*Homestar Runner argues with himself about his costume, mistakenly suggesting it to be of [[Wikipedia:Carrot Top|Carrot Top]], a stand-up comedian noted for his large orange hair. He then mistakenly "corrects" himself to actually be [[Wikipedia:Crocodile Dundee|Crocodile Dundee]], the titular character from the 1986 comedy movie. Crocodile Dundee was played by [[Wikipedia:Paul Hogan|Paul Hogan]] who, like Yahoo Serious, is Australian.
*Strong Sad enthusiastically asks Strong Bad, in reference to his costume, for the answer to the [[Wikipedia:Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything|ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything]]. In the [[Wikipedia:The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]], the computer Deep Thought is constructed to formulate this response, despite nobody knowing the precise nature of the question. After 7 1/2 million years, Deep Thought reveals the answer to be "42".
*[[Wikipedia:Whatchamacallit (candy)|Whatchamacallits]], [[Wikipedia:Snickers|Snickers]], and [[Wikipedia:100 Grand|100 Grand]] are all actual candy bars.
*Strong Sad shouting his last line in the Strong Bad Easter egg is in the style of a typical antic of Sam Kinison's comedy act, taken verbatim from his appearance in the movie "Back To School".
*Coach Z's "Yooooooooooo garble garble!" is his attempt to say DJ Lance Rock's phrase (and the title of the Nick Jr. TV series) "[[Wikipedia:Yo Gabba Gabba!|Yo Gabba Gabba!]]"
*Bubs' Easter egg lines are from the Junkyard Dog's entrance theme, "Grab Them Cakes".
*When Strong Mad keeps jumping on the ground and making it shake during the episode, it is a reference to how the actual [[Wikipedia:List of Mario series enemies|Thwomp]] acts in the [[Wikipedia:Mario|Mario series]].
*Homestar's line when clicking on Marzipan at the end refers to "[[Wikipedia:Pride and Joy (Stevie Ray Vaughan song)|Pride and Joy]]", a song of [[Wikipedia:Stevie Ray Vaughan|Stevie Ray Vaughan's]] (whom Marzipan is dressed up as,) from his 1983 album ''[[Wikipedia:Texas Flood|Texas Flood]]''.

Talk:Senor Cardgage

Sculptus Poe — Tue, 04 Jul 2006 06:15:37 GMT

Sculptus Poe:

For reference, unlike the character [[Señor]], Senor Cardgage does not use the "ñ" in his name. [[User:Drhaggis|Drhaggis]] 17:15, 15 Sep 2004 (MST)

Shouldn't Senor Cardgage's tendancy to call at guys like they are ladies be a bulleted trait, as it is one of his distinguishing characteristics? --sculptus poe

True dat, Drhagman.<BR>
- Not Strong Bad

tr00 dat!<BR>
[[User:MetaStar|MetaStar]] 12:55, 2 Oct 2004 (MST)

It really doesn't matter if his appearance in flashback is debated. Seriously, it's not a necessary piece of information. --Ogog

''Wow! Im sure u havent noticed yet, but if you look reaeaeally closely, this guy kinda looks like STRONG BAD!!! So that's where the nightmares come from!''-some retard.

I'm thinking that he is really "Strong Dad." [[User:Drhaggis|<nowiki></nowiki>]]- [[User:Drhaggis|Dr Haggis]] - [[User talk: Drhaggis|Talk]] 00:14, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

* (Picking up on above point).. I'd asume this implies that Strong Sad et al don't realize this, like he and (ugh) "Strong Mom" had an elicit and sordid rondayview? [[User:MetaStar|MetaStar]] 06:35, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

If Senor Cardgage was in [[HRFWiki:User:LesCed/Mrs._Koch|Mrs. Koch]]'s class, he would get an X on his chart for calling guys girls. —[[User:2Fast2Furious|2Fast2Furious]] 9:49 13 April 2006

==Visual similarities to Creepy Comb-over Strong Bad==
Senor Cardgage has many physical features that are similar to those of Strong Bad (ie. boxing gloves and mask, no shirt, black pants, etc.) TBC obviously patterned him after Strong Bad's general appearance when they created him; however, in the Homestar Runner universe, it is possible that Strong Bad actually patterned his own appearance after Senor Cardgage. It would make sense that Little Strong Bad, after living down the street from him for a while and coming to believe that he is one of the coolest guys ever, might decide to look, act, and maybe even sound as much as possible like the good Senor. It is never stated directly this is actually the case, but it is implied in the email [[kind of cool]] when Strong Bad describes his tall, dumpy alternate self (Creepy Comb-Over Story Strong Bad) as an exact duplicate of Senor Cardgage. — [[User:Ashen|Ashen]]
:I reverted the above edit from the page, but moved it here since it represented at least several minutes work for someone. Unfortunately, views on the interrelation of Strong Bad and Senor Cardgage are far from unanimous; edits are regularly made and reverted asserting either that Creepy Comb-over and he are identical and should be merged, or are separate people and should be further elaborated.
:Your theory about Strong Bad adopting Cardgage's style is fun to hypothesize about. However, it represents one of our ongoing attempts to take "artifacts" of [[The Brothers Chaps|TBC]]'s creative evolution and explain them into backstory or wrestle them into continuity. (See my [[Talk:geddup_noise#Rant_Re:_Reality|lengthy rant]] on the subject.) The simple explanation for the visual similarities are that Creepy Comb-over SB started as SB's imagination, then Strong Sad said the hypothetical SB described was ''like'' S. Cardgage; then TBC liked the character they had created so much they made him a "real" character and gave him a short (even noting the contradictions and confusion they had just raised—"Wait, is Senor Cardgage real!?!"). By this time the hypothetically aged SB had gotten inextricably entangled with the memory of the (assumedly real) neighbor Se'''ñ'''or Cardgage, who was immediately obscured by the problematically-real product of their union, Se'''n'''or Cardgage. Thus we can have Strong Bad appear in the same [[Senorial Day|shot]] with a character that is neither his imagined self nor the actual neighbor from the past, but... ''something'' else altogether. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 02:44, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

So, let me get this straight. Señor Cardgage is the actual neighbor from the past, and Se'''n'''or Cardgage is a figment of Strong Bad's imagination? [[User:Gm1121983|Gm1121983]] 8:47 pm 17 Jan 2006
:Yup, that's about the size of it. Except that Senor Cardgage moved out of imagination to H*R reality. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 03:42, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
::Have you ever heard of Occam's Razor? --[[User:208.0.20.2|208.0.20.2]] 15:08, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

<s>No. What exactly is Occam's Razor? —[[User:2Fast2Furious|2Fast2Furious]] 10:20 13 April 2006</s>

Seems to me like Senor Cardgage is to Strong Bad as Homsar is to Homestar. Maybe a better name would be stong bad?

Senor Cardgage and Strong Bad are two separate characters as well as Homsar and Homestar. Course, some people believe that Senor Cardgage is really Strong Dad. —[[User:2Fast2Furious|2Fast2Furious]] 17:34 20 April 2006

Surprisingly, [[The Brothers Chaps]] made Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad the ''real'' Senor Cardgage. I would have thought that the real Senor Cardgage would scare me as much as [[Wikipedia:Aloysius Snuffleupagus|Snuffleupagus]] did when I was little. Senor Cardgage is a little creepy, but he's also funny. His voice cracks me up. [[User:2Fast2Furious|2Fast2Furious]] 01:42, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
:Hah! I'm not the only one!! (About Snuffy, I mean.) And yeah, Senor Cardgage is just plain too creepy for me to find funny. He's one of the two things on H*R that I just can't get around (the other being Li'l Brudder; I can't quite get over making fun of disabilities). —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 02:40, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

==Vocabulary==

Should Senor Cardgage's vocabulary be listed?

I guess by vocabulary, you mean phrases such as "Excardon me" and "No probalo." I don't see anything wrong with listing quotes. I know there were Senor Cardgage quotes listed in the [http://old.hrwiki.org/index.php?page=Senor+Cardgage old wiki]. [[User:2Fast2Furious|2Fast2Furious]]

{{about|creepy mortgage broker and used car salesman}} {{for|blue [[Storybook Characters|storybook character]]|Señor}} {{for|common misuse of the Spanish word "Señor"|Senor}}

'''Senor Cardgage''' is apparently the creepy guy that lived down the street from the Brothers Strong when they were little, and gave [[Strong Sad]] nightmares due to his extreme sketchiness. He now runs [[Senor Cardgage Mort-gage|his own mortgage business]] as well as a [[Senorial Day|used car dealership]]. His name is pronounced "[[Senor|Seh-nor]]", not "Seh-nyor", due to the lack of a [[Wikipedia: tilde|tilde]] on the N.

Some of his traits include:
* Suspiciously coming out of bushes and shrubs just as you walk by
* Always carrying [[Aldi Bag|an old plastic Aldi grocery bag]] of mysterious contents
* Loudly eating melty chocolate bars while standing too close to you in lines
* Smelling like [[Peas|pea soup]] (according to [[Homestar Runner]])
* Being so cool, that even if you are a dude, still calling at you like you are a lady.

[[Image:Can of Peas.png|thumb|left|"Look at this can of peas, Helvetica."]]
Senor Cardgage speaks in phrases that are almost one word but not quite another, like; "excardon me" and "exobably not," and he talks in a very quiet voice. He'll also "call at you as if you were a lady," regardless of your gender.

Even though he has a car dealership and a mortgage company, his residence is unknown. It is suggested in [[Senorial Day]] and [[candy product]] that he is homeless, as he is shown in an [[Alleyway|alleyway]] sleeping in a sleeping bag and using his [[Wikipedia:Aldi|Aldi]] bag as a pillow. Strong Sad said that Senor Cardgage lived down the street when they were little, implying he had a house at one point; however, there is no proof of this or of his current residence, if any. Although it is implied that he is poor, he offers to buy Strong Sad a can of peas at [[Strong Bad]]'s [[garage sale]] for $99, and then proceeds to buy it for himself.

When Strong Bad is asked what he would be like if he was not stylish and buff in the email "[[kind of cool]]", he describes Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad who is just like Senor Cardgage. Both are, at least to Strong Bad, "so cool, you don't even know [that they are] cool".

It is often debated whether Senor Cardgage and Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad are the same person or not, but it is notable that during the "[[Sketchbook (video)|Sketchbook]]" extra on the [[strongbad_email.exe]] DVD, [[The Brothers Chaps]] refer to this character as Senor Cardgage, and during the commentary for [[garage sale]], they remark, "Ah, good ol' Senor Cardgage. I guess he's a real character now." Also, in the [[Toons Menu]], the description for [[Senor Mortgage]] reads "Wait. Is Senor Cardgage real?!"

'''KING OF PEASANTRY:''' We have coexisted with the Burninator in these lands for centuries. ''{Quick clips of a map of Peasantry and peasants being terrorized by a CGI Trogdor pass by.}'' I can't have you marching up there in your short pants upsetting the balance!

'''RATHER DASHING:''' I'll upset ''your'' balance, my lord!

'''KING OF PEASANTRY:''' Rather Dashing, you will not sass back at this council!

'''NARRATOR:''' From the sort of people who brought you Trogdor and Litigation Jackson...

''{Rather Dashing walks up to Poor Gary.}''

'''RATHER DASHING:''' Easy now Gary, I'm just going to WEAR MASK.

'''NARRATOR:''' A quest for adventure! A quest for revenge!

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*This was labelled as "Super Bowl halftime!!" on the main page, because The Brothers Chaps put this trailer up at halftime of the [[Wikipedia:Super Bowl XXXIX|2005 Super Bowl]].
*When Rather Dashing puts on the mask and when he throws the baby, he speaks the actual commands from the game, e.g. "throw baby".
===Trivia===
[[Image:pq_trailer_end_credits.png|thumb|right|Ending Credits]]
*These are the single largest Flash files on the entire site, with the 2.6 MB "Jhonka" trailer being over one and a half times larger than the runner-up, [[Puppet Jam: Tropical Lazor Beams]].
*When this trailer was first put up at halftime, the size and popularity of the file apparently overloaded TBC's server. Because of this, the original 13.4 MB file was removed mid-Monday morning and was temporarily replaced with a close-up of Rather Dashing and a note saying that he would be back. By late morning, that was replaced with a screen enabling you to choose which file size you wanted to download: "Jhonka" (2.6 MB), "Kerrek" (5.4 MB), or "Trogdor" (10.3 MB).
*The loading screen used to read "loading a fairly big deal", but it now says "rather loading", referring to Rather Dashing.
*Many of the people listed in the credits are mentioned elsewhere on the site: [[Ryan Sterritt]] helped create the [[strongbad_email.exe|Strong Bad Email DVD]]. [[Jackie Chapman]] is [[Matt Chapman]]'s wife, [[Craig Zobel]] helps write some of the cartoons and [[Jonathan Howe]] helps with many of the games.
*The word [[Wikipedia:Pterodactylus|"pterodactyl"]] is incorrectly spelled "pterydactyl" in the end credits.
*These credits are clickable for some reason (at least in the 13.4 MB and "Trogdor" versions); however, doing so doesn't seem to activate any Easter eggs.
*Our hero might just be more dashing than previously thought. At the end when he declares "not tonight he doesn't!", a viewer can barely but surely see a wedding ring on in the first couple of frames as he swings the sword.
*When Rather Dashing is climbing up the mountain, and you see him from the front, the background is that of the [[Wikipedia:Stone Mountain|Stone Mountain]] trail to the top. It is a large granite mountain near [[Wikipedia:Atlanta, Georgia|Atlanta]], near where [[The Brothers Chaps]] live.
*We see that Craig Zobel is credited as the "cartographer", meaning he drew the map of Peasantry.
*This is the first appearance of Jackie Chapman in a Homestar Runner feature.
*The [[Scalding Lake]] shirt that Rather Dashing (played by Matt Chapman) is wearing is presumably the same one worn by Matt in the [[Screen Savers Interview - 24 Jan 2005|Screen Savers Interview]] several weeks prior to the trailer's release.

===Remarks===
*According to the [[FAQ]] on the official site, this is the "full-length" Peasant's Quest movie.
*In the movie trailer, The Blue Knight states that Rather Dashing doesn't ''smell'' like a peasant. In the game, however, he says that Rather doesn't ''stink'' like a peasant.

===Inside References===
*The movie is directed by [[Leomard Sportsinterviews]], well known for his book ''[[HR:amazon.html|This Book is Better Than 1st, 2nd and Quite Possibly Even 3rd Base]]'', among other things.
*''[[Litigation Jackson]]'' was the fictional movie mentioned in [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. Its sequel was mentioned in [[rampage]].

*Many of the clips in this preview are taken directly from the Peasant's Quest game, including:
**Scaring Poor Gary, the horse
**Throwing The Baby in the water
**Talking to the Baby Lady
**The Kerrek pounding Rather Dashing into the ground.
**Taking Kerrek's belt in the rain
**Mendelev and Dongolev teaching you how to shoot an arrow
**Fighting The Jhonka (though you don't actually fight him in the game)
**Rather Dashing was eating the meatball sub even though he didn't eat it in the game.
**Naked Ned appearing from behind the tree
**Rather Dashing's "Scalding Lake" vacation shirt
**Rather Dashing with the pot stuck over his head
**The guard's explanation of why Rather Dashing cannot see Trogdor
**Climbing the mountain to Trogdor's lair
**Getting pebbles
*When The Three Keepers of Trogdor are waving in the cave (after CG-Trogdor), the reptilian creature flying in the background makes the same noise as [[Mrs. Commanderson]].
*The Peasantry Map includes places such as:
**The Frumpish Mountains
**The Slightly Dangerous Fields
**That Weird Tree (you know)
**Trogdor's Keep
**Clackum Falls
*The music and ending lines ("And the Trogdor comes in the night!") are taken from Strong Bad's Trogdor song in the email [[dragon]].
*"Thorax Legitimate" is referring to the [[Thorax Corporation]].
*"Video computer TV game" is a possible reference to the easter egg in [[Peasant's Quest Preview]], where the first [[Videlectrix]] programmer says, "I'm supposed to release a video computer game on TV without this graphic!"

===Real-World References===
*"Trogdor's Big Movie" may be a reference to the ''Winnie the Pooh'' movie, ''[[Wikipedia:Piglet's Big Movie|Piglet's Big Movie]]''.
**It could also refer to "Clifford's Big Movie" and other children's movies with similar titles.
*The heading "A Lem Sportsinterviews Joint" is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Spike Lee|Spike Lee]]'s movies which are called "A Spike Lee Joint."
*The blue knight's helmet slamming shut when he says something in anger may be a reference to a similar thing happening to the character [[Wikipedia:Dark Helmet|Dark Helmet]] in the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Spaceballs|Spaceballs]]'' or Sir Bedivere in the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Monty Python and the Holy Grail|Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]''.
*The depiction of the battle between Rather Dashing and the Kerrek is very similar, in style, to the battle between Dennis Cooper and the Jabberwocky in Terry Gilliam’s 1977 film ''[[Wikipedia:Jabberwocky (film)|Jabberwocky]]''.
*The battle between Rather Dashing and Jhonka is reminiscent of [[Wikipedia:Gollum|Smeagol]] and [[Wikipedia:Déagol|Déagol's]] battle at the beginning of ''[[Wikipedia:The Return of the King (book)|The Return of the King]]'' likewise the flute music that plays at the begining of the trailer sounds like the music from the [[Wikipedia:Hobbiton|Hobbiton]] scenes in ''[[Wikipedia:The Fellowship of the Ring(book)|The Fellowship of the Ring]]''.
*Although this trailer is full of obscure nods to various fantasy cliches, the scenes with the shadow rolling back across the land and the map of Peasantry suggest the [[Wikipedia:The Lord of the Rings|''Lord of the Rings'']] trailers. Similar sound effects are used.
*Before the Videlectrix Films logo and around the ending of the film, there is the scene melee. One of the shots is of a man fighting in silhouette form behind a blue sky with a sword in his hand and around the end he is struggling with a sword, the same scene is in [[Wikipedia:Kill Bill|Kill Bill Volume 2]].
*When Rather Dashing puts the hood of his peasant garb on, it is reminiscent of [[Wikipedia:The Village (movie)|"The Village."]]
*The screaming of Jhonka in the first sighting is similar to the screaming of zombies in ''[[Wikipedia:Half-Life 2|Half-Life 2]]''.
*The ending snort after Trogdor blows fire at the screen is from [[Wikipedia:Doom|"Doom"]].
*The way in which Rather Dashing holds his sword when he says "Not tonight he doesn't... come... in the night... Trogdor!" is similar to the way a [[Wikipedia:Jedi|Jedi knight]] holds a [[Wikipedia:Lightsaber|lightsaber]] in the [[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]] films and trailers.
