Strong Bad is too sick to answer an [[Strong Bad Email|email]], and everyone else seems to be ill as well.

'''Page Title:''' Here Comes Sickness!

== Transcript ==
''{We are presented with a silent view of the Lappy, Strong Bad apparently absent, and the following email is on the screen.}''
<blockquote class="lappy email" style="background:black">
<div>subject: sick</div>Dear Strong Bad,

I've noticed you never seem to get sick. How do you 
stay so dang healthy all the time?

Sincerely Crap,

Grant, BC</blockquote>

''{Cut to a view of Strong Bad's desk. Strong Bad is severely ill and curled up into a ball under the table, coughing and shivering with bags under his eyes. An empty box of tissues that reads "Tish, You!", lies next to him along with a mess of used up tissues.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{coughing}'' The Cheat! Get in here with my puke pail. ''{coughing}'' And bring me some tissues. Lots more tissues!

''{Homestar walks in from the right of the screen with a thermometer in his mouth, obviously sick.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Strong Bad, my burps smell really bad. Check this out. ''{breathes, creating green puffs of air from his mouth}'' Hang on.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh. Go away. I can't smell anything anyways.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, I'm betting you can smell these!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well you're lucky it's your burps that smell. DO NOT go into Strong Mad's room. Or, as I've taken to calling it, Rotten Egglünd.

''{Cut to outside Strong Mad's room. The door is covered with police tape that reads "Quarantine!". There is a green haze coming out from the bottom of the door.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{from inside}'' SOMEBODY HEEEEELP!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad and Homestar in the Computer Room. He lifts his head and opens his eyes wider, making the bags under them disappear.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh. The Cheat! What's taking so long with my tissues?

''{Cut to a close up of a green bucket labeled "Puke Pail for Him!" with puke stains on and around it. The top of The Cheat's head is visible poking out of the bucket.}

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{crying noises}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{coughing}'' Oh well. I guess I'll just re-use some of these already re-reused ones. ''{He grabs a tissue. He then winces, and the bags under his eyes are visible again.}'' Ow! They're pointy now!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Strong Bad, I don't think you're going to be able to answer your word problem this week. So I'll take one for the team. Two trains enter a tunnel going four miles per hour. ''{As he talks, pictures of two trains, a tunnel, and the number 4 appear on the left of the screen.}'' At what time do they reach Poughkeepsie?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{groans and coughs while speaking}'' The Paapeeeer!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down, with a distorted noise. It appears crinkled and says "Strong Bad, I can't come in today."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh no, not you too! Can I blow my nose on you?

''{The Paper goes back up.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
[[Image:rottenegglund.png|thumb|Rotten Egglünd]]
*Click on the word "healthy" at the end of the toon to see a short scene with Strong Sad.
:''{Strong Sad is lying in his bed. His face is green with spots and he has pink around his eyes. The rest of his body is normal.}''
:'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{groans}'' This is the greatest day of my life. I feel like a few dollars.
*Click on the word "Crap" at the end to see a map of "Rotten Egglünd". The locations on the map are:
** Northwest — ''the buttwood'' — A forest of trees with birds flying out of them.
** North — ''festering hills'' — A bunch of hills.
** Northeast — ''east stinkberger'' — A wheel of smelly cheese with a slice taken out.
** West — ''pungent acres'' — Some mushrooms.
** East — ''rotten egg manor'' — A castle with a cracked, smelly egg on it.
** Southwest — ''eggmünd'' — A pile of rotten eggs.
** South — ''this part smells'' — More hills.
** Southeast — ''whatsitshire'' — A large pile of [[Whatsit|whatsit]].

==Fun Facts==
===Remarks===
*Homestar has the wrong end of the thermometer in his mouth. The bulb is what should go in his mouth.
*The quarantine tape over Strong Mad's door goes across the doorknob as if the doorknob were two-dimensional, or completely flat.

===Goofs===
*Initially, clicking on the Lappy's screen did not cause the screen to ripple. This was corrected within ten hours of the toon's release, but was still only a very faint effect. Also during the Lappy scenes, you can click anywhere on the screen and it will cause a ripple, as opposed to just on the monitor.
*When Strong Bad's eye bags disappear, the tint of his face changes.
*After Strong Bad throws away the tissue, his hands stop twitching for the rest of the scene.
[[Image:ArmlessSB.PNG|thumb|Armless Strong Bad]]
*When Strong Bad reaches out for a tissue, he has no arm connecting to his glove.
**This happens again when he hurts himself on the pointy tissue.
**His arm usually wouldn't be able to stretch far enough to reach the tissue.
* When we zoom in to Homestar answering the "word problem," the desk behind him disappears and the shading changes. When we zoom out, the designs on the wall move.
*When Strong Bad is talking about Strong Mad's room, the gleam in his eyes is in the wrong place.

=== Inside References ===
*The map of Rotten Egglünd is based on the map of [[Peasantry]] in [[Peasant's Quest]].
===Real-World References===
* "Here Comes Sickness" is a song by [[Wikipedia:Mudhoney|Mudhoney]].
* [[Wikipedia:Poughkeepsie (city), New York|Poughkeepsie]] is a city in New York located in the Hudson River Valley between New York City and Albany.

==Apostrophe==
Isn't the apostrophe in the "O's" incorrect? --[[User:Droffats|Droffats]] 22:09, 27 Mar 2005 (MST)

*Yes, I think so, but that's how it is in the Toons menu... [[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora Szalinski]] 23:00, 27 Mar 2005 (MST)
**Depending on your point of view, no - the plural forms of single letters have apostrophes (unlike most words). A's, B's, C's, etc. Yeah, it's a silly rule, but I don't make them up. --[[User:Jay|Jay]] 09:07, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

==Dull Pic==
This might be just me, but regarding the picture that's on this page, it's kind of dull. Would it be out of line to suggest maybe replacing the box logo with one of the "complete delicious breakfast," with the box, bowl, etc...?--[[User:Spanky The Dolphin|Spanky The Dolphin]]

The Jet in the commercial may not reference Starscream of the Decepticons (Transformers), it also looks like GI Joe's version of the F-14 called "The Skystriker"--[[User:Slackerboy|Slackerboy]] 15:41, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Not sure if this has been brought up, but the dishware appeares to be an older Tupperware brand or something comparable. My grandma owns a set with that same design. --[[User:67.65.62.59|67.65.62.59]] 03:44, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)

== I feel so bad for the Cheat! ==

Ok, this may be minor, but it almost sounds like Homestar is saying "Four miles For hours" or "four miles four hours" instead of "Four miles per hour" Am I the only one? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 08:19, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)
::Yes.

== sick lappy ==

the reason you dotn get ripples when you click the lappy is because it is sick with a virus too!!!
:No, if TBC wanted to make the Lappy sick, it would have been more obvious. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 17:02, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== Sick as well ==

What a coincidence!!!! I stayed home from school today because I was sick. It's amazing how life works out. lol--[[User:Martin925|Martin925]] 18:23, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== Grayest or Greatest? ==

"STRONG SAD: {groans} This is the ______ day of my life. I feel like a few dollars."

Alright, this has been changed multiple times now. Is he saying "grayest" or "greatest?" {{User:Camalex/sig}} 18:34, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

*'''Greatest.''' Not only is that I hear it as, but "grayest" doesn't make sense in context. (regarding the dollar sentense) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 18:48, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)
*'''Greatest.''' I definitely hear a consonant in there. It's a little muffled because of his illness. The joke is that for a depressing person, being sick means he's actually having a good day. The second line is a play on "I feel like a million dollars," which only a person having the greatest day of their life would say. The ''grayest'' day of Strong Sad's life is every other day. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:50, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)
**'''Second.''' -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 19:27, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)
*'''Greatest.''' For exactly the reasons It's dot com gave. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

:That's what I thought. Then I came here and it said "grayest" so I was confused. It kept getting changed, so I just wanted to see what people said on it... {{User:Camalex/sig}} 18:52, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Superbowl Dealie

[[Image:superbowldealie.png|thumb|Strong Bad takes it to the house]]

Strong Mad has an enjoyable time watching the Super Bowl on TV.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Strong Mad}}, {{Film|Strong Bad}}, {{Film|Homestar Runner}}

'''Places:''' [[Strong Bad's Basement]]

'''Release Date:''' January 29, 2003

'''Running Time:''' 0:39

'''Page Title:''' Superbowl 20X6
__FORCETOC__
== Transcript ==
''{down in the basement of the Brothers Strong's abode...}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{has a football in one hand, and is watching something on TV}'' TAKE IT TO THE HOOOOUSE! ''{punches the couch 4 times}'' TAKE IT TO THE HOOOOOUSE!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Um... Hey tough skins. Uh... The game's been over for about 6 hours now.

'''TV:''' Set it and forget it!

'''STRONG MAD:''' TAAAKE IT TO THE HOUUSE! ''{throws his football at Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{catches football}'' Yeah... Yeah, OK... Um... I'll take this to the house. ''{walks away}''

''{Homestar walks in wearing a Boston Bruins jersey}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Do do do do do do do do do do do. ''{stops singing}'' Wow. That guy's really taking it to the house.

'''TV''': Set it and forget it!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down and it says: "Due to the big game, the Strong Bad Email will be a little late this week."}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*If you wait a bit, Homestar will [[Homestar Peeking|peek]] around [[The Paper]], much like he peeked around the ribbon at the end of [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]].

== Fun Facts ==
===Remarks===
*Despite the focus on football, this cartoon has deliberately confused different sports for comic effect:
**"Take it to the house" is a term generally used more often in basketball than football.
**Homestar is wearing the jersey of the [[Wikipedia:Boston_Bruins|Boston Bruins]], a [[Wikipedia:National_Hockey_League|Hockey]] team.
*The Heading "Super Bowl 20X6" is in reference to [[20X6]].

===Goofs===
*When Homestar walks in while singing, his mouth isn't moving.

===Real-World References===
*The "Set it and forget it" line is from the infomercial for the [http://www.ronco.com/ Ronco Rotisserie].
*Other than the page title and filename (both of which use "superbowl" instead of "[[Wikipedia:Super Bowl|Super Bowl]]"), the game is not actually referenced by its name. This is probably to avoid issues with the [[Wikipedia:National Football League|NFL]] concerning the use of the trademarked name "Super Bowl." You'll find similar references to "The Big Game" in advertisements from companies every January when they suggest that their products are essential to your enjoyment of the Super Bowl, without paying the NFL for the rights to tell you that in so many words.

==Canucks==
Regarding your do-over change: a canuck is also just slang for anyone from Canada..Strong Bad may not actually be referencing a team, but he definitly is referencing that slang I think -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 22:54, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

== About Atlanta reference ==

Are there other airports that have the exact same automated voice system that says "Please stay in the center of the vehicle and away from the door?" You've changed this back twice apparently with some knowledge of other systems using the exact same language (which was replaced in 1994 at Hartsfield). The only reason I say this is because a) this is a classic Atlanta reference, almost anyone living in the city at the time remembers it and b) the Chapmans are from Atlanta so they are probably also aware of it.

== Minor changes ==

Hey tomstiff. How are ya? Quick question: do you have "Mark all edits minor by default" checked in your preferences? Sometimes your edits are more substantial than what I would consider minor. Maybe it's a matter of preference, but take [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Strong_Bad_Email_Release_Dates&curid=9261&diff=107707&oldid=107705 this edit] for example. (Not that I disagree with the change itself; I just think it's a substantial change.) By the way, keep up the good work on the wiki! — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:53, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:I never know when I cross the line from minor edit to major. It's just habit that I mark 'em all as "minor" edits. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 17:05, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
::I think maybe you've got the line drawn too high. Spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting (to a point)—I think of these things as minor. But anything that is a change in ''content''—even if it's just a few words—is not minor. Also, I would think that comments on talk pages are not minor. If for some reason I was hiding minor edits in the Recent changes, I would have missed your reply. ;) — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:19, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:::Hmmmm, I think I'll just start marking everything as "not minor." Obviously, if *I* make a change, it *must* be important! -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 17:22, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:::::That's funny. I like that reasoning. I'll probably steal that joke someday (and not give you credit ;) ). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
::::I have a habit of marking pages minor, too. I have to use extra brain juice to remind myself not to check the box on an edit like this. I think what It's dot com said is where I draw the line. -[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 17:44, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:::::I have the opposite habit -- I never mark my changes as minor. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 18:59, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
::::::I have the same tendency as Aurora. I assume everything is a regular edit unless I can come up with a compelling reason people would consider it minor. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:21, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== Alien mothership ==

"Hovering alien mothership"? Really? I was about to revert what I was sure was trolling by an anonymous user when I saw it was your edit. ;) — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:52, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:Sure I'm (semi) serious! Strong Sad said he'd discovered gold there. Now, you *could* make the argument that jumping was one of the super powers the aliens gave him! -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 21:54, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::If you watch the flash file frame-by-frame, you can see that Strong Sad enters the scene head-first from the upper-left corner. I see no indication that he's entering under his own power. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 22:03, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::Oh, right! Strong Sad ''does'' mention a spaceship. I couldn't hear his lines because I'm here at work and have had my sound off while investigating this. Looking at it again, however, I'm still pretty sure he's jumping, not falling, into the scene. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:15, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::::An arc (parabola) doesn't imply a jump. He could have propelled himself forward while falling from a stationary object above the frame or fallen "directly" down from a moving one. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 22:32, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:::::You've obviously put a lot of thought into this, but I think you're making it [[Wikipedia:Occam's Razor|too complicated]]. You agree that his trajectory could "be exhibited by an object following an arc." In other words, one might say that it looks like he jumped. If it looks that way, then he probably did. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:47, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== Hmmm. ==

Why is that not valid but just 4 lines up is the remark as follows:

I think this should go into discussion.

:Well, I'm not Tom, but we generally only acknowledge "firsts." Your fact was a "second." Put it in [[HRWiki:STUFF|STUFF]] if you want it discussed and voted on, but I'm guessing it'll be declined. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 18:38, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Coma==
Hello, Mr. Stiff. I was curious as to why you removed my wikipedia link to comas in the Dancing Brothers article. I have no love for comas, or want to be in one, but thought it might be interesting to link. It was - the wikipedia article is in need of cleaning and revision. Alas, not being a medical doctor, I should probably leave that to someone who is (or pretends to be). I admit Poopsmith Z's re-word was unecessary, but my link? {{User:Thesmokingmonkey/sig}} 14:26, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:Thanks for the response. I don't know, one of the reasons I like wiki is you can zip from topic to topic - and if you wanted to know about comas, well, you can read about comas. {{User:Thesmokingmonkey/sig}} 14:40, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)

[[Image:nibbles.PNG|thumb|100px|I make good ear plugs, too.]]
'''Nibbles''' is a mini-marshmallow who is the mascot for [[Fluffy Puff Bite-Size Nibblers]]. He claims to be "one years old." Not only is Nibbles a sugary confection, he makes good earplugs, too. The existence of Nibbles raises the ire of [[Fluffy Puff Marshmallows|Fluffy Puff's]] established mascot, [[Marshie]], causing him to scream "get out of here, you little runt!" at the diminutive confection.

===Remarks===

*Nibbles' walking sound is the same sound [[Homsar]] makes.

A member of the [[Cheat Commandos]], '''Gunhaver''' seems to be the leader, although [[Flashfight]] may be the leader as well. Among his mission credits are leading an action figure storage vehicle attack on [[Blue Laser]], leading a search party to uncover Blue Laser's [[Secret Desert Headquarters|secret desert headquarters]], and staving off the danger of Blue Laser saving oodles of money at [[Price Style]]. He has cool glasses, a stylin' coat, and, as his name implies, a gun.

He also makes a cameo in an Easter Egg in Teen Girl Squad Issue 7.

Gunhaver is a direct parody of Duke from GI Joe.

Reynold

tomstiff — Thu, 15 Sep 2005 21:07:30 GMT

tomstiff:

[[Image:Reynold.PNG|thumb|right|220px|Reynold: he never gets to go on any missions.]]

'''Reynold''' is a civilian contractor for the [[Cheat Commandos]]. He wears glasses and a fake tie. His favorite drink is milk. You can buy his apartment extreme playset, as well as his playset's groceries. His girlfriend used to buy them for him, before she left him.

Reynold first appears as an animated character in the toon [[Shopping for Danger]]. He is unhappy with his job and wants to go on a mission with the other Cheat Commandos because he believes he could be a "good mission... guy." However he can neither shoot nor fly, so if he were in fact to go with them, he would probably die. His voice is whiny and somewhat similar to [[Strong Sad]]'s. He also is interested in [[Foxface]], the only female Commando. He suffers from [[Wikipedia:Strabismus|Strabismus]], which is a muscular failure when the eyes go in two different directions when not wearing corrective glasses or lenses. His tie and glasses are reminiscent of classic nerds Drew Carey and Dilbert. In [[Commandos in the Classroom]], he is taught about peer-2-teen choice behaviors.

Oh come on, they're sending up terrible sex education films. The "teen pregnant" comment is just another poke at the highly idealised world the makers of said videos deal in.

:I completely agree. Anyone with doubts should go here: http://sonicsez.ytmnd.com/. If sonic can talk about "touching", "teen pregnant" seems pretty damn tame to me. These public service announcments are all over cartoons anyway. TBC take a good stance by being a bit risque for kids entertainment, but if a kid were to view their site, they could almost certainly deal with it.--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 11:45, 14 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Oooh! Oooh! Now it's time for "my two cents about Reynold!" (''sound of muffled trombone''). I think TBC were simply trying to come up with an inappropriate behavior for Reynold to be chastised about - the phrase "get teen pregnant" makes as much sense as "peer-2-teen choice behavior." Let us pity poor Reynold, who, in addition to not being allowed on any missions, isn't allowed to watch a PG-13 movie about ponies. This constant sheltering feeds his naive persona - the little dude can't even cuss properly. So, when he attempts to express his frustration about being sent to bed, "get teen pregnant" is the best he can come up with. He's not going to get pregnant, or get someone pregnant - he's using risque language inappropriately. This is similar to how little children, flush with excitement over learning a new curse word, use the word relentlessly without even understanding what it means. In conclusion: this was one of the funniest toons on the site in recent memory. —{{User:Thesmokingmonkey/sig}}13:13, 14 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I doubt theres anything to really make a case about. As mentioned before, getting teen pregnant makes no sense - especially as Reynolds says it, and since when is pregnancy innapropriate? I may be over exageratting, but I think everyone here is born thanks to a pregnancy. And I doubt society's reached a point where one is ashamed of being pregnant. The line just shows Reynold's lack of common sense/wit. I mean, if you want to make a fuss... why not [[for kids|make one about Strongbad screaming to kids I'll kill ya]] or complain about him willingly attempting [[homsar|to murder someone]]. If people can see those two instances as humor, I dont see why the pregnancy line should raise any discussion at all

H*R doesn't really make fun of God. Besides the whole Decemberween toon a long while back, there's nothing really offensive in that arena. And quite possibly "What's that jargle? Scripture? You're going scripture?" But that's too funny to be offensive to me. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]''''' 17:42, 14 Sep 2005 (UTC)

: "What's that Jargle? Scipture?" - similar jokes have been made by my own pastor, so what the heck. It's funny. May I mention that the "Get Teen pregnant" thing isn't offensive to me? If they had SHOWN something to the effect... that would have been disturbing. But as it was, it was a three word sentence that really didn't do anything...

:: Pretty soon this thread (which really should be on the forum), is gonna need its own page. Anydangway, previous toons aside, ''this'' toon was '''making fun''' of the fact that people get offended by crazy stuff and '''highlighting''' the fact that TBC don't actually use swears on the site.

== Antioxidants ==
The antioxidants explanation is just dumb. We're not advised to eat foods with antioxidants in them for the prevention of acne. Anti-oxidants prevent oxidation; having these chemicals in the body and are thought to prevent cancer and stave of the visible signs of aging. They may be used in over the counter acne medicine, but they aren't doing anthying in them. Anti-acne medicine works through cleansing/astringent properties. Prescription anti-acne medicine is antibiotics. There is absilutely no evidence that topical application of antioxidants has any effect at all. Eplaining antioxidants as acne preventers is really bizzare, and I don't understand why it got changed back. At least the link to antioxidants still goes to wikipedia, not some skin care product propaganda page like it used to. --Sarducci

:As I said below, 80's acne medication advertising focused on antioxidants.

*Ah, I was just going to note that. I don't see what acne has to do with it at all, and it's not even mentioned on the Wikipedia article.

Oooh! Oooh! Now it's time for "my two cents about Reynold!" (''sound of muffled trombone''). I think TBC were simply trying to come up with an inappropriate behavior for Reynold to be chastised about - the phrase "get teen pregnant" makes as much sense as "peer-2-teen choice behavior." Let us pity poor Reynold, who, in addition to not being allowed on any missions, isn't allowed to watch a PG-13 movie about ponies. This constant sheltering feeds his naive persona - the little dude can't even cuss properly. So, when he attempts to express his frustration about being sent to bed, "get teen pregnant" is the best he can come up with. He's not going to get pregnant, or get someone pregnant - he's using risque language inappropriately. This is similar to how little children, flush with excitement over learning a new curse word, use the word relentlessly without even understanding what it means. In conclusion: this was one of the funniest toons on the site in recent memory. —{{User:Thesmokingmonkey/sig}}13:13, 14 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I doubt theres anything to really make a case about. As mentioned before, getting teen pregnant makes no sense - especially as Reynolds says it, and since when is pregnancy innapropriate? I may be over exageratting, but I think everyone here is born thanks to a pregnancy. And I doubt society's reached a point where one is ashamed of being pregnant. The line just shows Reynold's lack of common sense/wit. I mean, if you want to make a fuss... why not [[for kids|make one about Strongbad screaming to kids I'll kill ya]] or complain about him willingly attempting [[homsar|to murder someone]].

== Knowing is Half the Battle ==

I personally think this episode is a stab at the 'And Now You Know' segments at the end of the old G.I. Joe show. Which makes sense since Cheat Commandos itself is a paraody of G.I. Joe. Anyone agree with this? [[User:The Pardack|The Pardack]]

I was thinking the same thing; though I do think its pointing fun to all such segments, who were quite abundant in the 80s and 90s. [[User:Ghilz|Ghilz]]

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Singing}'' It's email time again! Doot doodle-ooh-doo, doot doodle-ooh-doo, doot doodle-ooh-doo.

''{reading}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Dear Strong Bad, 
Does Strongbadia have its' own local 
news even? If so, I hope it's better 
than my local news. 
 
Sincerely, 
Dan D. Tallahassee, FL</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says "Tallaha—... Tasalan—.. Gainesville, Florida" instead of "Tallahassee, FL"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Okay, Dan, I'm only gonna sing this one more time: ''{singing}'' Ohhhhhhh ''{types while singing}'' If you want it to be possessive, it's just "I-T-S." But, if it's supposed to be a contraction then it's "I-T-apostrophe-S," ''{Short pause}'' scalawag. ''{stops typing}'' Ahem. Um, ''{Clears screen, resumes typing}'' Of course we've got local news. It's the—It's the greatest! Um... But I—I have to go now...and...do something...completely unrelated to me...throwing together...the aforementioned local news. Hoight!

''{Strong Bad holds a sign reading "Strongbadia Action Cool News 5" in front of the camera. We can hear The Cheat making noises in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Strong Badia Action Cool News 5!

''{Cut to Strong Bad standing in Strong Badia.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Top Stories with anchorperson Strong Bad!

''{Strong Bad gives a thumbs-up to the camera, as The Cheat holds up an index card reading "Strong Bad with Top Stories." Cut to Strong Mad standing in front of a blackboard holding a football, a tennis racquet, and twirling a cinder block on his right index finger as if it were a basketball.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Strong Mad with the sports!

''{The Cheat holds up an index card reading "Sportscarster Strong Mad". Cut to the Tire with an index card propped up next to it reading "Meteorologist TIRE."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Local weather with Tire!

''{Cut to The Cheat standing in the field.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And The Cheat with SkyCheat Traffic!

''{The Cheat grins at the camera and holds up an index card reading "THE FRIGGIN CHEAT" as the SkyCheat logo appears in the lower right-hand corner. Cut to Strong Bad sitting behind a desk situated in front of the fence.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Good evening and tonight. I'm Strong Bad with today's top stories.

''{Cut to a side view of the desk (which now looks more like a cardboard box). The Cheat holds up a sign saying "World Crisis."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The World in Crisis! More on that later.

''{The Cheat withdraws the World Crisis sign, and we switch to a frontal angle of the desk again.}'' Now let's check in with The Cheat with SkyCheat Traffic.

''{Cut to Strong Mad and The Cheat standing in the field. Strong Mad throws The Cheat high into the air. The Cheat hangs there for a split-second and then falls back and is caught offscreen by Strong Mad. This process repeats over and over. Strong Bad makes helicopter sounds.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{subtitled}'' Thanks Strong Bad... This is The Cheat...with SkyCheat Traffic... There appears to be...some congestion...around Bubs' Concession Stand.

''{cuts to the concession stand. Homestar, Marzipan and the King of Town are standing in line. There is a sign that says "Wait in Line: $5"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Best five bucks I ever spent.

''{Cuts back to Strong Bad behind the news desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thank you, The Cheat. I guess those ''roads'' should not be ''rode'' upon, eh?

''{Cut back to The Cheat, who is still being thrown into the air.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{subtitled}'' not funny... i didn't even mention...any roads.

''{Cut back to Strong Bad behind the news desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yes, well, thank you, tonight. We'll return to our top story: The World in Crisis.

''{Bubs holds up the "World Crisis sign." Cut to side angle of the desk again. You can see Bubs, but he quickly runs away, dropping the sign.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But first, here's Strong Mad with the sports.

''{Cut to the Classroom. The words "SCORE A POINT" are written on the board. Strong Mad is bouncing a football on the floor with a tennis racquet.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' I SHOULD WIN! I SHOULD WIN IT!

''{Strong Mad swats the football at the camera. You can hear Strong Sad saying "ow." Cut back to Strong Bad behind the news desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, it looks like our ''esportscaster'' isn't being a very good ''esport'', eh?

''{Cut to The Cheat still being thrown in the air.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{subtitled}'' pathetic.

''{Cut back to the news desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Will the winter weather chill your cheeks?

''{The Poopsmith holds up a sign reading "Winter Weather."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's the word, Tire?

''{Cuts to the tire on a desk with a weather map propped up against the fence. The map slowly slides down and falls off the desk, causing the tire to roll away and fall off the desk itself. Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You heard it folks. Bundle up, but keep your swimsuit on outside your pants.

''{Cut to side angle of desk}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tonight folks, and have a great job. Remember to turn in tomorrow for our special investigative report exposé: The World in Crisis.

''{The Cheat's sound effects start up again}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Strong Badia Action Cool News 5: "We're investiga-awesome."

''{The Cheat holds up a sign saying this. The Paper comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*At the very end you can click on the little Trogdor-style beefy arm to bring up Strong Bad's educational CD, "Strong Bad's Rhythm 'n' Grammar."
#Ohhhhh... If you want it to be possessive, It's just "I-T-S." But if it's supposed to be a contraction, Then it's "I-T-apostrophe-S," Scalawag.
#Whatever happened to capitalization? It used to be so cooool.
#Girl, don't forget to spellcheck Or I'll come to your house and throw a brick through your dad's windshield... Windshield!
#Y-O-U-R... Y-O-U-Apostrophe-R-E... They're as different as night and day. Don't you think that night and day are different? What's wrong with you?
#And I don't care how they spell things on the Internet. When you email me, you spell the whole word out. And I don't care that your cell phone has a camera in it. ''{He trails off making bass guitar noises.}''

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*"The World in Crisis" is making fun of the fact that most news stations always start off by telling you about the most interesting news story and keep you waiting to see it for a long time.
*Strong Bad is likely affecting an exaggerated Spanish accent in his pronunciation of "sport" and "sportscaster." Because the s+consonant sound does not appear at the beginning of a word in Spanish, native Spanish speakers often have difficulty pronouncing such words and will add a soft e sound to the beginning.

===Trivia===
*This is the first time Homestar mentions anything about [[Best/Worst_(?)_bucks_I_ever_spent|best/worst bucks spent]].

===Remarks===
*The Cheat says that he didn't mention any roads, which may have been out of necessity—there are no known roads in [[Free Country, USA]].
*When it first cuts to Strong Bad standing in Strongbadia, the sky is oddly pink, but for the rest of the e-mail the sky is gray. This is different from Free Country, USA's usual clear blue sky.
*The sportscaster card says "sportscarster," and spelling mistakes are atypical for Strong Bad.

===Goofs===
*In response to Strong Bad's joke after Strong Mad's sports segment, The Cheat responds even though there may not have been enough time elapsed for Strong Mad to leave the studio and throw The Cheat in the air.
*None of The Cheat's subtitles from "not funny" onward are capitalized.
*When the tire falls off the desk, the crashing noise is heard before the tire actually hits the ground.

===Inside References===
*The arm on the S in the sign is a reference to [[Trogdor]].
*The stained index cards used to display the titles and names of Strong Bad, Strong Mad, The Cheat, and the Tire are similar to the ones used in [[band names]].

===Real-World References===
*This email is from [[Wikipedia:Tallahassee, Florida|Tallahassee, Florida]], but Strong Bad finally says it is from [[Wikipedia:Gainesville, Florida|Gainesville]]. The college football teams of these two cities — the [[Wikipedia:Seminole (tribe)|Seminoles]] of [[Wikipedia:Florida State University|Florida State University]] and [[Wikipedia:Florida Gators|Gators]] of [[Wikipedia:University of Florida|University of Florida]], respectively — are major rivals.
*The Cheat making noises in the background near the beginning is a reference to news programs that play a bit of [[Wikipedia:Morse code|Morse code]] which fades as the anchor starts to speak.
* The "it's e-mail time again!" intro sounds remarkably like the [[Wikipedia:KISS (band)|KISS]] song "Cold Gin" with the title replaced by the word "E-mail".

== DVD Version ==
*All 5 Grammar songs have been incorporated into one long Easter egg.
*The DVD version features hidden audio commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

=== Commentary Transcript ===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''STRONG BAD:''' Greetings, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' Greetings, Strong Bad.

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's nice to see you again here—

'''MIKE:''' Thanks for joining me again.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —in the commentary booth.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Can I get you anything?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uhh... Can you get me something else?

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Maybe a picnic plate with wine and a baguette?

'''MIKE:''' That's The Che—that's what The Cheat likes.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, that's his favorite.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Can I get him something else?

'''MIKE:''' Heh, 'kay... Um...

'''STRONG BAD:''' So this—I need to really put out this album.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, Strong Mad's—"Strong ''Bad's'' Rhythm and Grammar."

'''STRONG BAD:''' My—What are you, my parents? I'm Strong Bad. ''Bad, bad, bad.''

'''MIKE:''' How can I remember? Do you have any, uh, mnemonic devices?

'''STRONG BAD:''' S. B., times three.

'''MIKE:''' Ohh, I get it.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Okay, so, um, em—actually, this email... um... ''{mumbles}'' I don't wanna say that.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{laughs}'' Okay, something else? Maybe another factoid.

'''MIKE:''' Uh... I like, um... the Strongbadia logo... right there for the news had an arm coming out of it, kinda like Trogdor.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, yeah. Look at how he—that's amazing. Spinning that cinder block... "The friggin' Cheat," man. I like the Skycheat Traffic logo, too.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's good. You guys must have spent some money on that.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...So, if you're a news...carster...you gotta...you gotta say "tonight" as much as possible.

'''MIKE:''' Mmhmm.

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I learned.

'''MIKE:''' Well, you say it a lot in this email.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, you're supposed to. Because you have to remind people, or they'll think it's the afternoon news, and they'll turn it off. Nobody wants to watch that crap.

'''MIKE:''' No, just the evening news.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah. Evening—

'''MIKE:''' "Tonight."

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tonight. The tonight news. We should have called it that. ''{pause}'' ''{referring to Homestar, the King of Town, and Marzipan standing in line at Bubs' Concession Stand}'' Those poor suckers. I mean, look at—you'd think, I mean, the King of Town and Homestar I understand, but Marzipan's usually a little more discerning. A little—

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, she, uh... Maybe she couldn't see that sign.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, and she's just waiting—she wanted a snow cone or something... Yeah. ''{pause}''

''{simultaneously, after newscaster Strong Bad says "Yes. Well, thank you. Tonight."}''

'''MIKE:''' There, he said... There, he did... So, Bubs... Bubs is...

'''STRONG BAD:''' See? Because, see, someone was about to change the channel, they'd be like, "Oh, this is the—this is noonday. I don't want to watch noonday." Oh! Yeah...

'''MIKE:''' So that's where Bubs was. He wasn't at the concession stand because he was helping you with the news. Is he like an intern?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, he's at the station.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''STRONG BAD:''' He's trying—he's getting some hours. Community service, actually.

'''MIKE:''' Oh. ''{laughs}'' Really? What did he do?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah. I—I'm not supposed to say.

'''MIKE:''' Okay. Oh, and the Poopsmith's helping out now too.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh... See, I actually originally drew a picture of butt cheeks with icicles on 'em, but the network wouldn't let me air it.

'''MIKE:''' I can s—I can imagine.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah... ''{pause}'' I, um... ''{After newscaster Strong Bad says "tonight" again}'' ...See? Once again, that was, like, five more viewers—

'''MIKE:''' That doesn't even make any sense.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{laughs}'' What do you mean?

'''MIKE:''' I mean, you're just saying "tonight."

'''STRONG BAD:''' I s—I kept reiterating that it is tonight!

'''MIKE:''' And you never told us what the World in Crisis was about.

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's to get you to come back ''tomorrow'' night and watch.

===Fun Facts===
*The wine and a baguette being [[The Cheat]]'s favorite is a reference to the [[Powered by The Cheat]] toon "[[New_Boots|New Boots]]."

'''Page Title:''' Buy all our Teaching Aids and Filmstrips!

== Transcript ==
''{Open to Cheat Commandos headquarters; a title which reads "'MOVIE NIGHT!' written by A. Chimendez Jr." appears. Cut to some Cheat Commandos at [[The Screen]].}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R&R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTAIN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of a person's head showing the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves through the mouth into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move through the mouth and up into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar, who looks startled. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiling}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right. Firebert and Blue Laser Commander lean back to make room for the diagram}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some suppressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for surface-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a station wagon appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''GUNHAVER:''' What do you think, Reynold?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{thinks a moment, then grins}'' I've got dysentery!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Good job, little buddy! ''{pushes Reynold offscreen to stage left, then walks with Silent Rip to stage right}'' Man, I can't wait to see some serious pony carnage!

''{Cut to the Commandos in the Classroom logo again.}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the classroom!

''{Cut to an image that reads "NEXT WEEK... LESSON 5: LISTEN YOU GUYS, YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO START SHOWERING EVERYDAY"}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Next week, lesson 5: Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering every day!

== Transcript ==
''{Open to Cheat Commandos headquarters; a title which reads "'MOVIE NIGHT!' written by A. Chimendez Jr." appears. Cut to some Cheat Commandos at [[The Screen]].}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R&R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTAIN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of a person's head showing the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves through the mouth into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move through the mouth and up into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar, who looks startled. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiling}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right. Firebert and Blue Laser Commander lean back to make room for the diagram}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some suppressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for surface-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a station wagon appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''GUNHAVER:''' What do you think, Reynold?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{thinks a moment, then grins}'' I've got dysentery!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Good job, little buddy! ''{pushes Reynold offscreen to stage left, then walks with Silent Rip to stage right}'' Man, I can't wait to see some serious pony carnage!

''{Cut to the Commandos in the Classroom logo again.}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the classroom!

''{Cut to an image that reads "NEXT WEEK... LESSON 5: LISTEN YOU GUYS, YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO START SHOWERING EVERYDAY"}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Next week, lesson 5: Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering every day!

''{"THE END" and "BACK" appear at the bottom of the screen.}''

===Remarks===
*The title of the cartoon is "Movie Night," but when we see the headquarters, it's daytime.
*Lesson 5 is apparently titled "Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering everyday". This is grammatically incorrect-- everyday should be "every day". "Everyday" is an adjective, as used in the phrase "Everyday silverware". Also, there should be a comma after "listen," because "you guys" is a parenthetic expression. And the comma after "guys" should probably be either a colon or a semi-colon, because "Listen, you guys" and "you seriously need to start showering every day" are both independent clauses.
*Antioxidants were commonly used in the prevention and treatment of that common teen affliction, acne.

== Transcript ==
''{Open to Cheat Commandos headquarters; a title which reads "'MOVIE NIGHT!' written by A. Chimendez Jr." appears. Cut to some Cheat Commandos at [[The Screen]].}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R&R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTAIN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of a person's head showing the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves through the mouth into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move through the mouth and up into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar, who looks startled. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiling}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right. Firebert and Blue Laser Commander lean back to make room for the diagram}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some suppressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for surface-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a station wagon appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''GUNHAVER:''' What do you think, Reynold?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{thinks a moment, then grins}'' I've got dysentery!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Good job, little buddy! ''{pushes Reynold offscreen to stage left, then walks with Silent Rip to stage right}'' Man, I can't wait to see some serious pony carnage!

''{Cut to the Commandos in the Classroom logo again.}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the classroom!

''{Cut to an image that reads "NEXT WEEK... LESSON 5: LISTEN YOU GUYS, YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO START SHOWERING EVERYDAY"}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Next week, lesson 5: Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering every day!

''{"THE END" and "BACK" appear at the bottom of the screen.}''

*[[Wikipedia:Second audio program|SAP]] is an auxiliary audio channel for television that can be broadcast or transmitted both over the air and by cable TV. It is often used for an alternate language or descriptive video.
*[[Wikipedia:MPAA_film_rating_system#PG-13|PG-13]] is one of the film ratings used in the [[Wikipedia:MPAA film rating system|MPAA film rating system]]. It is one rating below R, and requires someone to be thirteen or older to see alone.

===Trivia===
[[Image:Commandos4 problem4.PNG|right|thumb|Smell that purple ink!!]]
*The blackboard in the classroom sequence reads "ASSIGNMENTS", "TAKE TEST", and "STARE AT CLOCK UNTIL I RETURN".
*In the same scene as above, Silent Rip's test paper reads "Problem 4: Compare and contrast your 2 most favorite '[[Wikipedia:Jim_Varney|Ernest]]' movies. Show your work!"
*This is the first time Reinforcements is shown in his animated form, and also the first time he talks in his own voice.
*Currently this is the longest "Short" Cartoon on the website. In fact, it is longer than all but four of the non-short toons.

===Remarks===
*The title of the cartoon is "Movie Night," but when we see the headquarters, it's daytime.
*Lesson 5 is apparently titled "Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering everyday". This is grammatically incorrect-- everyday should be "every day". "Everyday" is an adjective, as used in the phrase "Everyday silverware". Also, there should be a comma after "listen," because "you guys" is a parenthetic expression. And the comma after "guys" should probably be either a colon or a semi-colon, because "Listen, you guys" and "you seriously need to start showering every day" are both independent clauses.

*This is the first time Reinforcements is shown in his animated form, and also the first time he talks in his own voice.
*Currently this is the longest "Short" Cartoon on the website. In fact, it is longer than all but four of the non-short toons.

===Remarks===
*The title of the cartoon is "Movie Night," but when we see the headquarters, it's daytime.
*Lesson 5 is apparently titled "Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering everyday". This is grammatically incorrect-- everyday should be "every day". "Everyday" is an adjective, as used in the phrase "Everyday silverware". Also, there should be a comma after "listen," because "you guys" is a parenthetic expression. And the comma after "guys" should probably be either a colon or a semi-colon, because "Listen, you guys" and "you seriously need to start showering every day" are both independent clauses.

''{Open to Cheat Commandos headquarters; a title which reads "'MOVIE NIGHT!' written by A. Chimendez Jr." appears. Cut to some Cheat Commandos at [[The Screen]].}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R&R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTAIN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of a person's head showing the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves through the mouth into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move through the mouth and up into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar, who looks startled. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiling}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right. Firebert and Blue Laser Commander lean back to make room for the diagram}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some suppressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for surface-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a station wagon appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''GUNHAVER:''' What do you think, Reynold?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{thinks a moment, then grins}'' I've got dysentery!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Good job, little buddy! ''{pushes Reynold offscreen to stage left, then walks with Silent Rip to stage right}'' Man, I can't wait to see some serious pony carnage!

''{Cut to the Commandos in the Classroom logo again.}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the classroom!

''{Cut to an image that reads "NEXT WEEK... LESSON 5: LISTEN YOU GUYS, YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO START SHOWERING EVERYDAY"}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Next week, lesson 5: Listen you guys, you seriously need to start showering every day!

''{"THE END" and "BACK" appear at the bottom of the screen.}''

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{types "strongbad" while singing}'' Oh, here comes The Strong Baaaaad... ''{He types "_email.exe".}'' Oh, here comes The Strong Baaaaad! ''{He brings up the email and reads it.}''

<blockquote class="email">Hey Strong Bad, 
I'd like to know...what is the secret 
to your pizzaz? Why are you so cool? 
 
peace out dawg foo gangsta yo 
Ryan N.</blockquote>

Umm... ''{typing}'' Did you just call me a dog food gangsta? What is that supposed to mean? ''{in an Olde English typeface}'' Ought I to be offended?

''{clear screen}'' Anyways... ''{typing}'' The secret to my pizzaz/why am I so cool? ''{spoken only}'' Hey, ''{typed and spoken}'' good questions Ryguy, let's ask me!!

''{music starts and a newspaper background appears}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Tonight, on Strong Bad-Type Interview Progrum: ''{The Strong Bad-Type Interview Progrum logo appears.}'' Strong Bad aims the barrel of his sawed-off journalism shotgun at his toughest interviewee yet... ''{a crosshair appears and moves around the screen revealing the scene underneath it before centering on Strong Bad's head and flashing "LOCKED ON!!"}'' ...HIMSLEF! ''{echoes ridiculously}'' Eh...I mean...himself.

''{The scene changes to Strong Bad's interview stage with the lights dimmed; Strong Bad is talking to someone off-screen with his microphone turned off. The lights fade up and Strong Bad turns toward the camera.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Good evening, mostly people, and welcome to another night of hard-hitting, buffalo-style journalism! As we say every show, let's...

'''AUDIENCE:''' Get to tha point! ''{the text "GET TO THA POINT" flashes on-screen in colorful graffiti-style writing}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Welcome, Strong Bad.

''{The camera switches to the rear of Strong Bad to reveal another Strong Bad, this one dressed in a sailor's cap with a corncob pipe, hereafter referred to as "CAPTAIN STRONG BAD" for clarity's sake; aside from the hat and pipe, he's a carbon copy of Strong Bad}''

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Thank you, Strong Bad.

''{The camera shifts back and forth between them as they talk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So... You're dressed like a ship's captain. Whuh... Um... Why are you dressed like a ship's captain?

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' I thought that I heard that it was... ''{looks around}'' ...the latest style.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Absolutely not the case. So... You're still dressed like a ship's captain. Why is that?

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Look, I'm telling you, I either saw or read or ''{quickly sotto voce}'' hearditfromTheCheat that it's the latest style!

'''STRONG BAD:''' So you say. This "The Cheat" you mentioned... ''{speaking with slight hint of withheld laughter}'' is he also dressed like a ship's captain?

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Oh, no way. The Cheat's too cool for that.

'''STRONG BAD:''' But you don't seem to have that problem.

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' What... No, wait, you turned it all around on me! I'm cool! I have pizzaz!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh-huh. And a corncob pipe.

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Oh, that's it! This interview is OVERRRR! ''{He sticks his face in the screen as the picture fuzzes out.}''

''{Cue an old-cartoon-style picture of The Cheat next to a pulled power plug with the text "Hang In There" and "Technical Difficulties."}''

''{After a little while, newspaper background and music returns with a picture of Captain Strong Bad's angry outburst.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So after many fives of dollars and saying "Come oooonnnnnn!" a lot, I got Strong Bad to agree to a second interview, this time on his buffalo-style ranch in Strong Badia.

''{Switch to image of Strong Badia with Strong Bad and Captain Strong Bad behind the fence, which zooms to fill the screen and then cranes in on the two Strong Bads.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So, Strong Bad, the peoples want to know... What's the secret to your pizzaz?

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Well, for starters, you've gotta have the three G's. Gumption, uh... Gum, like, chew gum, and, um... Gar........gle. Minty gargle.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Minty...gargle. ''{Captain Strong Bad nods.}''

''{The camera switches to behind the fence, showing that it is far too tall for Strong Bad's head to come above it normally, and that they are both actually hanging from the fence by their arms}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Is that really all you got?

'''CAPTAIN STRONG BAD:''' Yeah... Yeah, pretty much.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{He makes "la-de-da-de-da" Cheat noises as he comes on-screen and the camera moves back to the front of the fence.}''

'''BOTH STRONG BADS:''' Hey, The Cheat!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{He looks at one, then the other, then the other, faster and faster until finally his head explodes.}''

''{The scene shifts back to the computer.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So, I never really got a straight answer outta me, RyGuy. But if you wanna be cool and have pizzas like me, it looks like the secret has a lot to do with fresh breath apparently. Okay, before I go, I'd like to give a shout out to all my Dogfood Gangstas. Canned or Dry, We Neva Die. ''{speaking}'' Colors. ''{typing}'' Here goes The Strong Baaaaad. ''{gets up from the stool and continues off-screen}'' Oh, here goes The Strong Baaaaad!

''{The Paper comes down}''

===Trivia===
*The words that scroll across the screen in the intro for the talk show read "MICROPHONES," "TALKING," "2 PEOPLE," "A GLOBE," and "A PLANT."
*When the Strong Bad in the sailor outfit knocks over the chair in the interview room, the "get-up" noise is heard.
*According to the DVD commentary, RyGuy is the [[The Brothers Chaps|The Brothers' Chaps]] nickname for [[Ryan Sterritt]].

===Remarks===
*"Pizzaz" is spelled incorrectly. The correct [http://m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?va=pizzazz spellings] are "pizzazz" and "pizazz."
*Biscuit Dough Hands Man is the initial suspect for Strong Bad's crimes in "[[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]]", created by [[Bubs]] drawing [[The King of Town|the King of Town's]] description of Strong Bad. So technically, Strong Bad will be interviewing himself again.

===Inside References===
*The background at the Buffalo-Style Ranch is from "[[Cheat Commandos...O's]]".
*The phrase "Neva Die" was said by Homestar Runner in "[[car]]." The gangsta font is also used in [[car]], on Strong Bad's boxing glove.
*The background in the beginning of The Strong Bad-Type Interview Progrum is the same as the background in the beginning of "[[Senor Mortgage]]."
*The cartoon image of The Cheat pulling out a power plug is a reference to The Cheat's first appearance in "[[Original Book|The Strongest Man in the World]]."
*This is another instance of [[The Cheat's Head Exploding]].
*The font used for "Get to tha point" is similar to, if not the same as, the font used for Strong Bad's graffiti "Job" in "[[A Jorb Well Done]]."
*The plant on Strong Bad's show is [[Credenza]] the ficus from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]].
*Strong Bad being in the ship captain suit may be a reference to [[A Mother's Day Message]].

===Real-World References===
*The interview program may be a reference to [[Wikipedia:Tim Russert|Tim Russert]]'s [[Wikipedia:Meet the Press|''Meet the Press'']] on which Russert often tries to be tough about unimportant topics ("So...you're still dressed as a ship's captain"). Russert also makes frequent references to his hometown of [[Wikipedia:Buffalo, New York|Buffalo]], while Strong Bad makes numerous references to such in this email with the phrase "Buffalo-style."
*"This interview is OVER!" is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Professional wrestling|Pro Wrestling]] Manager J.J. Dillon, who managed [[Wikipedia:Ric Flair|Ric Flair]] in the early '80s in Georgia (where [[The Brothers Chaps]] live). He would end every interview with the same comment.
*The gunshot sound at the end of the Easter egg (and the style of the hole being blasted from the "The Strong Bad" logo) is taken from the [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES game]] ''[[Wikipedia:Super Scope|Super Scope 6]]''—and is the sound used in all the [[Wikipedia:Lazer Blazer|''Lazer Blazer'']] games when a shot is fired.
*Strong Bad dressing up as a captain for an interview is similar to an episode of [[Wikipedia:Seinfeld|Seinfeld]] in which Jerry is forced to wear a pirate shirt for an interview and is asked why he is wearing it by his interviewer several times.
*The Three [[G]]'s, also known as "GGG," will be familiar to any [[Wikipedia:Dan Savage|Dan Savage]] (''[[Wikipedia:Savage Lover|Savage Love]]'') reader. It refers to being Good, Giving and Game in an intimate relationship.
*The concept for the fictitious TV show ''The Strong Bad'' is based on ''[[Wikipedia:Bonanza|Bonanza]]'', the first regularly broadcast American television program to be filmed in color.

('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''MATT:''' Here’s the rare occasion where ''Mike'' went out of town and I had to finish an email.

'''MIKE:''' That’s true. I was in San Francisco and Matt did pretty much the whole thing by himself. Good job, Matt.

'''MATT:''' Thanks. Did it come out okay?

'''MIKE:''' It did.

'''MATT:''' I think—

'''MIKE:''' It’s the— it’s always a good treat when that happens because then I get to watch the email on Monday morning.

'''MATT:''' Fresh.

'''MIKE:''' Fresh and not really knowing what happens.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' So it was good.

''{pause until Strong Bad types, "Ought I to be offended?"}''

'''MIKE:''' That’s—

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He’s got dynamic like, tone sensors on his keyboard.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah that knows—

'''MATT:''' That can tell when he gets quieter and when he’s getting formal. 'Cause I think it does the same thing when he says the, uh, "and Trogdor smote the Kerrek."

'''MIKE:''' That’s right.

'''MATT:''' And turns into that fancy font.

'''MIKE:''' That script font.

'''MATT:''' ''{in reference to the Strong Bad-Type Interview Progrum title screen}'' Talking, a globe, a plant, two people.

''{scene cuts to interview}''

'''MIKE:''' I think that’s the same newspaper background from the, uh, Senor Cardgadge. The thin in.

'''MATT:''' I think you can read some phone numbers on that. We should probably do something about that. ''{laughs}''

''{pause until after Strong Bad says "Get to tha point"}''

'''MATT:''' That background is, uh, almost as good as if not better than [[the show]] background as being uh— looking like an old Joe Franklin set or something.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah like, uh, Fernwood 2Nite or something. Some 70’s talk show. Is that— is that plant—

'''MATT:''' Credenza?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, Credenza?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. That’s Credenza.

'''MIKE:''' Umm... we just saw a guy in the parking lot of our office dressed a ship's captain this morning.

'''MATT:''' A pail of water—

'''MIKE:''' He had a bucket full of water dumping it in the parking lot and he was wearing a ship's captain hat.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. He had pizzaz.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' He definitely did.

'''MATT:''' Umm so Strong Bad really lays it to himself. Really gives himself the business. With a third d—

'''MIKE:''' As only Strong Bad could.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. He doesn’t react very well. You think he could— he could take it.

'''MIKE:''' He just quits. This is a great song. This is a great song! ''{starts singing}'' I’ll sing it ''{continues singing and snaps his fingers}''

'''MATT:''' ''{makes a the Cheat noise at the end of the song like "meh"}''

'''MIKE:''' That was good.

''{short pause. Start again when Strong Bad says "come on."}''

'''MIKE:''' Let me— let me see.

'''MATT:''' Oh. Microphone I think is one of the words.

'''MIKE:''' I don’t think there’s any thing legible.

'''MATT:''' Water. Water Views. Uhhh—

'''MIKE:''' Oh! Look at that camera move!

'''MATT:''' Yeah thanks.

'''MIKE:''' Solid!

'''MATT:''' Cinematic.

'''MIKE:''' Little dolly action.

'''MATT:''' I did go to film school!

''{both laugh, then sigh}''

'''MATT:''' Uhh..

''{short pause}''

'''MATT:''' So I don’t even think— I think I already started animating this scene and then realized that, "Wow! You know what they have to either be standing on something or hanging from the fence." So I had 'em hanging from the fence.

'''MIKE:''' That was good.

'''MATT:''' Umm... uh oh.

'''BOTH:''' Here it comes again!

''{The Cheat's head explodes}''

'''MATT:''' That’s gotta hurt. That happens—

'''MIKE:''' That happens several times. RyGuy is, uh, the nickname of our friend Ryan.

'''MATT:''' That’s what we call him.

'''MIKE:''' Or— Well... I was gunna say something but it was a curse word. ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Mike, don’t tell— we don’t know any curse words!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Shut up! That’s like that rap song, Colors by Ice-T. "The gangs in LA will never die, just multiply. Colors."

'''Places:''' [[Cheat Commandos HQ]], [[Price Style]]

'''Date:''' September 13, 2005

'''Running Time:''' 4:15

'''Page Title:''' Buy all our Teaching Aids and Filmstrips!

== Transcript ==
''{Open to Cheat Commandos headquarters; a title which reads "'MOVIE NIGHT!' written by A. Chimendez Jr." appears. Cut to some Cheat Commandos at [[The Screen]].}''

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R&R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTIAN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar, who looks startled. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiling}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right. Firebert and Blue Laser Commander lean back to make room for the diagram}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some suppressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for surface-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a station wagon appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''GUNHAVER:''' What do you think, Reynold?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{thinks a moment, then grins}'' I've got dysentery!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Good job, little buddy! ''{pushes Reynold offscreen to stage left, then walks with Silent Rip to stage right}'' Man, I can't wait to see some serious pony carnage!

''{Cut to the Commandos in the Classroom logo again.}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the classroom!

== Transcript ==

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R and R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTIAN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All Right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''COMMANDO:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiliing}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to an alley. Firebert walks by in the background, while the Blue Laser Commander is standing next to a building.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{Jumping out, holding up a candy bar}'' Hey, kid! Wanna smoke some candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body, which now appears to be a bear, appears over the scene this time. "#3" appears on the right.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Pro-positive life tool number three: ''{The diagram and "#3" disappear, and Silent Rip appears from the side of the building and throws a smoke bomb.}'' Have your light infantry create a thick smokescreen. ''{The commander starts hacking and coughing, while Firebert pulls out a gun and shoots it at the commander.}'' Then lay down some impressive fire until the snipers are in position. ''{He stops firing.}'' But look out for service-to-air antioxidant missiles! ''{Firebert jumps out of the way as three missiles just barely miss the Commander.}''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Ah!

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then by the time Reinforcements shows up...

''{Reinforcements shows up.}''

'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey, guys.

''{Cut to a screen with Gunhaver.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ...Your mom ''{an image of a car appears}'' should be waiting for you in the bus turnaround! ''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}'' So, do you think you're ready to make ''{more finger quotes}'' appropriate inappropriate whatever thingies now?

'''REYNOLD:''' Yes sir! I'm gonna get high on life!

''{Silent Rip walks up.}''

'''SILENT RIP:''' We're about to start the movie! You guys coming?

'''Places:''' [[Cheat Commandos HQ]], [[Price Style]]

'''Date:''' September 13, 2005

'''Running Time:''' 4:15

'''Page Title:''' Buy all our Teaching Aids and Filmstrips!

== Transcript ==

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R and R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTIAN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All Right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''COMMANDO:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But Gunhaver, I've never had pizza before!

'''GUNHAVER:''' But you know what it looks like, don't you?

'''REYNOLD:''' ''{smiliing}'' I think so!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''(cut to a slummy street. There is a bar named Seedy Bar there. Firebert is walking along. Blue Laser Commander is behind a wall.)''

'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Hey kid, do you want to smoke candy with me?

''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a bear. "#3" appears on the side}''

== Transcript ==

'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Movie night is my favorite night. I think it is my favorite night. Hee hee hoo hoo!

'''SILENT RIP:''' Are you even trying anymore?

'''GUNHAVER:''' All right boys, time for a little R and R. Tonight we've got the old family favorite ''Pony Fights 2''!!!

''{the big screen cuts to the green rating screen. It says "THE FOLLOWING FILM HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR CERTIAN AUDIENCES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT'S BEST. IT BE RATED PG-13 FOR SEVERE CUSSING AND'' VERY ''ILLEGAL PONY FIGHTS.}''

'''EVERYBODY:''' Yay! Yeah!

'''SILENT RIP:''' All Right! PG-13!

'''GUNHAVER:''' Uh, sorry Reynold, I'm afraid lights out for you is at oh-now hundred hours!

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, all that cuss-language might give you nightmares. Ah-ha ha ha.

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can handle it, why I can even swear a cuss myself! A-hem. Diaper-biscuits.

'''OTHER COMMANDOS:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

'''REYNOLD:''' Oh, I can't do anything right. I might as well go home and get teen pregnant.

''{The other commandos gasp, the Blue Las-Alert siren sounds once.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Easy there, Cheat Cuss-mando, you just made an inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behavior!

'''REYNOLD:''' A whaaa?

''{cut to the black and white Commandos in the Classroom logo, which looks like Reynold in a mortar cap pointing a pointer at an A+}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{singing}'' Commandos in the Classroom!

''{Cut to another black-and-white slide that reads "LESSON 4: INAPPROPRIATE PEER-2-TEEN CHOICE BEHAVIORS". At the bottom in fine print it reads "*TEACHERS, USE THIS TIME TO CATCH A NAP OR HAVE A SMOKE."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Lesson four: Inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors!

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold in Cheat Commandos HQ}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' Here, Reynold, lemme show you.

''{Gunhaver points the remote at the screen, which shows two ponies fighting in a field for a moment, then snows out to a diagram of the brain. The other commandos cheer for a second, then boo as the scene changes.}''

'''COMMANDO:''' Watchin' the ponies...

'''GUNHAVER:''' The brain is divided into two halves: ''{The brain in the diagram gets a jagged line down the middle}'' the good half ''{A dotted line points to the left half saying "GOOD HALF"}'' and the evil half. ''{A dotted line points to the right half saying "EVIL HALF.}'' The good half likes positive things, like Self-Esteem, ''{the word "Self-Esteem" appears in the middle of the screen and moves into the "good" half of the brain.}'' Oreo Cheesecake, ''{again, the words appear and move into the brain}'' Bringing Your Old Man a Cold One, ''{again, then cut to a closeup of Gunhaver}'' and all our playsets and toys. ''{Cut back to the diagram.}'' But the evil half likes ''{as each of the next four words is said, is appears from the "evil" half of the brain and moves to the right side of the screen}'' Littering, Loitering, Latering, Lootering, and all the other stuff that causes inappropriate peer-to-teen choice behaviors! ''{The other words vanish and are replaced by "Inappropriate peer-2-teen choice behaviors.}''

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' But how do ''I'' keep from making peer-to-teen choice awards, Gunhaver?

'''GUNHAVER:''' If you find yourself in a sticky ''{makes "finger quotes"}'' teenage situation, just remember these three pro-positive life tools:

''{Cut to Silent Rip in a classroom, next to a Blue Laser minion. Both appear to be taking tests.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' What did you get for number four, sir?

'''SILENT RIP:''' Uhhhh...

''{Gunhaver suddenly enters the screen from the bottom.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''Freeze!'' ''{The screen cuts to a diagram of a male body with "PRO-POSITIVE LIFE TOOL" written next to it, and a giant "#1" appears next to it.}'' Pro-positive life tool number one: ''{Gunhaver appears on the screen}'' say you have one of any debilitating gold rush era diseases! ''{He pulls out a book labeled "BIG BOOK OF DEBILITATING GOLD RUSH ERA DISEASES", and "BBODGRED" on the spine.}''

''{Cut back to the classroom.}''

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Come on, man. I thought we were bros!

'''SILENT RIP:''' I can't! I have the typhoid! Or the cholera!

'''BLUE LASER MINION:''' Never mind. Your answers are gross, bro.

''{Cut back to Gunhaver and Reynold, the latter of whom is now wearing a false beard and a prospector's hat, and is holding a mining pick.}''

'''REYNOLD:''' Gold rush era diseases, eh?

'''GUNHAVER:''' Now you're getting it!

''{Cut to the supermarket, where two Blue Laser Minions are holding a lot of bottles labeled "WINE COOLA," some of them in their pants, and Fightgar is standing nearby.}''

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Hey, man. We need you to put these wine coolers down your pants... er, down your headband.

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Oh, um, uh...

''{Again, Gunhaver suddenly jumps onto the screen.}''

'''GUNHAVER:''' ''STOP!'' ''{The diagram of the body returns, but now, it's a woman's body. "#2" appears on the side and "EN SAP" at the bottom.}'' Pro-positive life tool numero two: ''{sillhouettes of the two Blue Laser minions and Gunhaver appear with question marks over them. The minions are labeled "INAPPROPRIATORS"}'' Envision your Inappropriators ''{Gunhaver is labeled "STILL JUST YOU" and the minions turn into pizza slices.}'' as giant slices of pizza.

''{Cut back to the supermarket.}''

'''FIGHTGAR:''' Ah-ha ha ha! You're deep-dish! Ah-ha ha! And you've got extra cheese! Ah-ha ha ha ha! Oh, pepperoni!

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' What's with this guy?

'''SECOND BLUE LASER MINION:''' He sounds crazy. Should we shoot him?

'''FIRST BLUE LASER MINION:''' Abso-total-lutely!

''{The second minion pulls out a large gun and aims it at Fightgar. The scene cuts back to Gunhaver and Reynold, who is now wearing a baseball cap and holding a bat, with a ball sitting next to him, and we can hear shooting over the next exchange.}''
