STRONG BAD: {singing} When I was sixteen I sold all my emails and hit the road.
subject: have you ever? PLEASE!!Have you ever made a sbmail about a business trip or
something serious? think about it.
-ROXY~VA
{pronounces "sbmail" as written. The "~" is accompanied by the sound like a cassette tape playing unevenly}
STRONG BAD: I think we should seriously talk about your name, Roxy. I'm afraid your career choices maybe limited to a Limozeen groupie or maybe an American Gladiator. {clears screen} Something involving you wearing scantily clothes. You don't meet too many Professors of Women Studies named Roxy. As for business trips, The Cheat and I are being sent to a conference in a jiust a few seconds here. The Cheat, are you read to road?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Sure am, Sam!
STRONG BAD: Hey, you're not The Cheat.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Nah, not any more. The Cheat got promoted to {cut to a portrait of The Cheat in a business suit} Junior Executive Of Not Having To Go On Pointless Business Trips.
{Cut back to Strong Bad}
STRONG BAD: What! I've been trying to get that job for years.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: So, it just going to be me and you. Sleepin' out underneath the stars. Roasting some marshmallows.
STRONG BAD: Homestar, this is a business trip, not a camping trip.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh. Oh, I see. I guess I shouldn't brought these, then. {Pan over to a stack of cans marked "Pork b/w Beans"}
{Diamond iris out to The Field, next to a sign that reads "Annual Symposium Conference Lecture Seminar Series Registration"}
STRONG BAD: Alright, Homestar. We got to start talking loudly about our business trip, so that everyone around us will know we're on a business trip. {speaking a little louder} Uh, continental breakfast? More like, in-continential bleck-fast.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {angrily} Yeah, seal the deal! {wider shot with Homestar wearing the pork b/w beans cans on his feet} Seal the deal!
STRONG BAD:' Homestar, what are those jangles? {Close up of the cans}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, airport security. You know how it is these days. Roll my eyes. {Homestar's eye highlights rotate}
STRONG BAD: Well, hurry up. We've got to get there before the keynote starts so we can ditch out five minutes after the keynote starts.
{push wipe to Strong Sad wearing glasses and holding a clip board}
STRONG SAD: {flatly} Welcome to Reducing Your Business's Carbon Footprint Is Not A Matter of Buying Everyone Smaller Shoes. Please allow me to begin.
{Reverse shot to Strong Bad and Homestar}
STRONG BAD: That's our cue.
{Cut back to Strong Sad}
STRONG SAD: And we'll go ahead and break for lunch.
