Marzipan's Greeting
MARZIPAN: Hi, this is Marzipan. I'm probably outside eating some dirt or something. So leave me a message.
Message 6
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh hey Marzipan, it's Homestar. Check it out, I'm on Pom Pom's cell phone, I'm gonna send you a text message. Are you ready? Here goes... P... L... Z... Spacebar... G... E... T... Spacebar... {Homestar is actually seen walking by, holding a banana up to his ear as a telephone} E... G... G... S... Spacebar, oh! Back spacebar, comma, M... I... L... K... Questionmark? Okay, now I have to send it. Boo doo boop! This is great, now we don't have to talk anymore! Bye!
Message 5
THE KING OF TOWN: It's my new jam! {guitar starts in the background} I'm not talking about butter, or how nobody likes me. It's the new KOT, in the two thousand and three plus three. I play guitar apparently. {guitar stops} Okay Marzipan, this is the only way I knew of to cut my demo. So I'll need to come over there soon and unreasonably search and seize this tape from you. See you in a bit!
Message 4
OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD: Yes yes, what what? Testing testing, two and three. I've got a hankerin' for a prankerin'! This telegrammaphone recording will be launched forthwith into the stratosphere, in the hopes that one day, many decades from now, some buck footed fool will recieve it, and be thoroughly bamboozled! Yes now, on with the prank! What's the difference between William Henry Harrison, and James Garfield? Answer: Nothing! They both enjoy lasagna. Stop!
Message 3
THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises, followed by a remix of The King of Town's jam}
Message 2
THE HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hi low, can anybody hear me? Give me the hiiiigh sign. It's The Homestar Runner, speaking into an empty soupcan, with a length of twine coming from the knee. Hello empty soupcan, hello length of twine. You seem like mighty fine fellers. Why I ought to fill you up with catgut and call you lunch. See you around... Brown.
Message 1
STRONG BAD: Hello Marzipan, this is Lorencz... Magazine... Man, calling to tell you that your subscription to Soy... Bread... Tofu... Hybrid... Cars... Magazine, is about to erupt! You need to evacuate! It's gonna blow sky high! Get out while you can! So what you gotta do is — and belive me, I'm Lorencz Magazine Man who are— who you're gonna trust — is bake all your money into a no-bake apple pie, and set it cooling on your windowsill. So that way, once the eruption is great, you can come home and eat pie and money! Because it's still going to be there, on your windowsill! Am I wr— am I wrong? Somebody, am I wrong? Everybody in here at the office with their headsets on said that you're not wrong. So this is Lorencz Magazine Man saying "the magma is seeping under the door".
