{slow fade to a closeup of Homestar Runner}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Man, what should I do today? {takes a deep breath and turns the other way} I just wander what I should be doing today, you know? {shakes head} I just can't stop wondering what I maybe could be should be doing today?
{cut to a long shot of Homestar standing alone on an ice floe, with an iceberg visible in the back}
HOMESTAR: Man. {the echo is heard; Homestar looks around}
{cut to a closer shot}
HOMESTAR: Oh, I know! I can pretend that one leg is short than the other again. {Homestar lifts his right leg and lets it swing freely} {softly} It doesn't touch.
{cut to a long overhead shot of Homestar drifting which crossfades to a slightly grainy black white pictures with the legend Satellite Feed in the lower right corner}
{camera pulls back to reveal the TV is sitting in The House of The Brothers Strong}
STRONG BAD: So you have no idea how we pulled this off?
{reverse shot of Strong Bad and The Cheat watching the television}
THE CHEAT: {uncertain The Cheat noises}
STRONG BAD: All right, let's retrace our steps. We stole Homestar's melonade.
THE CHEAT: {nodding} {affirmative The Cheat noise}
STRONG BAD: You made pee-pee in said melondade.
THE CHEAT: {embarrassed affirmative The Cheat noise}
STRONG BAD: And now he's on a tiny ice floe in the middle of the Arctic somehow.
THE CHEAT: {enthusiastic affirmative The Cheat noises}
STRONG BAD: I think we might be missing a few key steps there.
THE CHEAT: {shrugging} {uncertain The Cheat noises}
STRONG BAD: Come on, man! This is like our best caper ever, and we don't even remember what we did!?
{cut back to Homestar. A black lump can be seen floating off to frame left.}
HOMESTAR: Okay. Bye, bloated sea lion carcass! {singsong} Thanks for stopping by! {cut to a medium shot} Marzipan, we've got to have them over more often. They are a riot! {Homestar looks over his shoulder, annoyed} Hm! {He starts shaking his body in random directions, grunting} That is it, satellite phone! You've poked me for the last time! {He tosses the phone into the ocean} You too, flare gun. {He drops the gun into the ocean}
{cut back to Strong Bad and The Cheat, laying on the carpet}
STRONG BAD: You're sure you don't remember like tricking Homestar to get on a cargo plane, {sketch of Homestar running towards a plane with a sign saying "Free Pile" appears over them} maybe bribing some walruses, {sketch of The Cheat with feet giving money to three walruses appears and fade} or maybe experimenting with the folding of space-time? {sketch of a diagram of a black hole, The Cheat with glasses, and math equations}
THE CHEAT: {negative The Cheat response}
STRONG BAD: So, the only thing we know for certain is you made wee {a picture of a glass of melonade appears} in Homestar's melonade and he's stuck {picture of a globe appears with a circle around it pointing to a tiny Homestar} on the other side of the globe in which we mysteriously have satellite coverage. {a satellite appears next to the globe}
THE CHEAT: {affirmative The Cheat noise}
STRONG BAD: That's it, I'm taking you to the vet!
THE CHEAT: {leaps up, makes scared The Cheat noise}
