Checkpoint

Coach Z
- {First time only}
- {Coach Z gets revived, with a quarter of his health being restored. The scorpions continued to attack him.}
- STRONG BAD: As I was saying-
- COACH Z: {interrupts} Strong Bad! Don't let-
- {The scorpions caused him to faint again. The "Continue" prompt reforms.}
- STRONG BAD: Hmm. That looked painful.

- STRONG BAD: Coach Z really went hardcore on the track. Can't wait to see Homestar swimming laps in that pool of lava.

- STRONG BAD: Ah, the obligatory lava level.
Strong Mad
- {First time only}
- STRONG BAD: Hey there, Gigantor.
- STRONG MAD: I PUT SHOT!

- STRONG BAD: {annoyed} An autograph? It's just Strong Mad.
- HOMESTAR: That's not just any Strong Mad! He's been possessed by the 8-bit spirit of Putchnya Shotski, honorable mention shotput semi-finalist of the 1982 Winter Olympics! He's my greatest sports hero... that Videlectrix could afford to licence! {vanishes}
- {Second time only}

- STRONG MAD: I PUT SHOT!
- HOMESTAR: {pops up} He's been concentratin' on his shotput game, at the expense of his vine-swingin' and penguin-hoppin' performance. Let's hope that doesn't hurt him in the finals! {vanishes}
Vine
