Transcript
{Coach Z and Bubs are sitting next to each other in chairs at dusk, waiting for some fireworks to start.}
COACH Z: Naw, I tell ya's, I once shoved an M-80 up my nose just to impress the ladytypes.
BUBS: Aw, that's nothin'. I once ate an entire bowl of M-200's at my family reunion!
COACH Z: Oh, yeah, well I married an M-300-
BUBS: ...They don't make a 300!
COACH Z: Oh... 250?
BUBS: No.
COACH Z: Elephant?
BUBS: UP BUP BUP BUP!
{Homestar comes in with a cardboard Marzipan.}
HOMESTAR: Hey guys! Happy Fireworks!
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} Homestar, that's not what the holiday's called.
BUBS: Marzipan's still out of town for the summer, eh Homestar?
HOMESTAR: No, what're you talking about?
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} Yes, I'm still out of town, Bubs, you gorgeous hunk of man.
BUBS: {Blushing} Oh, why thank you, Cardboard Marzipan.
COACH Z: Hey, Cardboard Marzi! Uh, you want in on some of this action?
HOMESTAR: {As Cardboard Marzipan} No, you're disgusting.
BUBS: What's takin' these fireworks guys so long anyways? I got peoples to rip off!
{screen now shows Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and the Cheat. Cans of gas and WB-46 are around them as well as a sign that says, "The fireworks guys (f'real)"}
STRONG BAD: Ugh, I don't know what I was thinking when I agreed to let you make your homemade fireworks, Strong Mad.
{shows batteries and matches taped together}
STRONG MAD: OOH-AHH! OOH-AHH!
STRONG BAD: We'll get to the oohing and ahhing soon enough. But first, we gotta go straight to plan G!
{shows The Cheat with "plan g" painted on him}
THE CHEAT: {sadly} Meh.
(Strong Mad grabs The Cheat and starts shaking him. The Cheat is making noises)
STRONG BAD: Wait for it... wait for it...
{The Cheat's noises get higher-pitched}
STRONG BAD: And pull!
{Strong Mad throws the Cheat above him}
THE CHEAT: Meeeeeeeeeehhhhh!
{The Cheat is flying in the sky. Eventually, Cheat-shaped fireworks appear. Cut back to Homestar, Bubs, and Coach Z}
HOMESTAR, BUBS, AND COACH Z: Oooooh. Ahhhhhh.
COACH Z: It's dazzle-mazing!
HOMESTAR: {As cardboard Marzipan} I think fireworks promote violence.
HOMESTAR: Shut up, Marzipan.
{a firework explodes and shows "Happy Fireworks!" The Cheat crashes into the ground. Cardboard Marzipan shows up}
HOMESTAR: {as cardboard Marzipan} Oh, the Cheat, are you okay? Do you want to go on a secret hot date?
Fun Facts
- The Loading Screen of this toon displays "Loafing..." instead of "Loading...".
- The cardboard used to make Cardboard Marzipan had the letters RAGILE stenciled across its top before Homestar drew Marzipan on it, as well as some other unreadable letters written across the bottom.
- The letters on the bottom read "DON'T BEND".
- The cans of WB-46 have this slogan written on them: Stops the Squeaks! Gets some jobs DONE. Fuh-lamable.
Inside References
- This is another instance of The Cheat's Head Exploding.
- Homestar's drawing of Marzipan looks similar to the Cheat's drawing of her in mile.
- Bubs drinks a "Not so Cold One" and Coach Z drinks a Coldson Lite.
Real-World References
- The cans of WB-46 are an obvious spoof of WD-40.
- Some of the batteries Strong Mad used to make fireworks are black with copper tops, the classic design of Duracell.
