{Close-up of a water cooler. The title words, "Biz Cas Fri" appear. Air bubbles rise into the cooler. Cut to Strong Bad standing at his office computer in his cubicle. Strong Bad is wearing a striped casual polo shirt.}
STRONG BAD: Wow! This is gonna be great! This is like my most productive day ever! It's not even lunch yet!
{Homestar Runner swoops in, sounding dazed, wearing a solid-brown casual polo shirt, and a piece of tinsel on his hat.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Rondo, it's official. This just in from corporate.
STRONG BAD: Whoa, what is it?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Thursday is the new Friday. Man, I don't even want to remember what went on last night.
STRONG BAD: Apparently you didn't wanna remember to take a shower, either! You smell like wet tech support, with onions!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Thanks man! Hey! I need you to cover for me. I'm supposed to present the third-quarter earnings to the shareholders in five minutes, but I really need to take a nap under your desk, here, so—
STRONG BAD: No way! I'm in the middle of something big here! I'm going to save this company millions!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Thanks man, I owe you one. {collapses}
{Cut to Strong Bad in front a whiteboard with a pie graph on it. Strong Bad is standing behind a desk in front of an audience.}
STRONG BAD: Um... yes! Thank you, gentlemen. So... uh... how's everyone feeling out there? {crickets chirp} {Strong Bad leans to his right} Lemme get all my shareholders on this side of the table to say "HEY!". {leans to his left} And all my shareholders on this side of the table to say "OHHH!".
{One of the shareholders clears his throat.}
STRONG BAD: So, lemme tell you about this Post-it note. Listen tightly. This thing's going to save the company millions!
SHAREHOLDER: What about the earnings?
STRONG BAD: Ooh, yes. Earnings. Uh... can I have the country of origin, please?
SHAREHOLDER: What?
STRONG BAD: Err... can you use it in a sentence?
SHAREHOLDER: Where are the earnings?
STRONG BAD: Yes. Earnings.
{Letters appear on screen as Strong Bad says them.}
STRONG BAD: E-A-R-N {gets hit by a shoe, falls over} Ow!
SHAREHOLDER: Is this the kind of man we hire these days? He's a total liability!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {appears to the right of the shareholder} Yeah, liability! L-I-A-B-I {gets hit by a shoe}
{"end."}

{Strong Bad is in his cubicle again, with Post-it notes stuck to everything}
STRONG BAD: Millions, I tell ya! Millions! {From here on, Strong Bad is barely understandable.} I'll save the company millions! I'll save bunches of money!{As he says this last sentence, he falls slowly to the ground, then a Post-it note falls off the wall.}
Fun Facts
Explanations
- Shareholders are people that own shares of stock in a company. A company's responsibility is to benefit its shareholders, and any profit is divided amongst the shareholders.
Trivia
- In a similar fashion to Biz Cas Fri 1, this puppet short was released on a Friday, even after a significant update was released on the preceding Monday.
- Homestar's sideways eyes were first seen in the Alamo Drafthouse appearance.
Remarks
- The Post-it note on Strong Bad's cubicle wall reads, "BOB!"
Real-World References
- Strong Bad's asking for a word's country of origin and for it to be used in a sentence and the way Homestar and Strong Bad begin spelling "earnings" and "liability" are in the style of a spelling bee.
