Transcript

{The scene opens with a phone hook lying on the floor; the receiver is offscreen. It has a funnel on top of it, and in the funnel are two bottles of "Cheez Wheez" and a bottle of "Lite Em Up Dan" lighter fluid. Two more bottles of Cheez Wheez are nearby.}

STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Oh dang!

{The camera pans across the phone's cord, to a part that is entangling more bottles of Cheez Wheez and some batteries, which are connected by wires.}

STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Oh dang muffins!

{The camera pans more to an axe suspended from the ceiling, with two speakers attached to it, all entangled by the phone cord.}

STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Oh dang muffins pie!

{Cut to Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat, in the same room as all of the previous. The phone's receiver is dangling from the ceiling.}

STRONG BAD: OH DANG MUFFINS PIE A LA MODE! This is gonna be the best April Fools Day prank call ever!

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG BAD: Now you're sure the science is sound? The battle axes and Cheez Wheezes will actually get through the phone lines?

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG BAD: Oh... fiber optics... makes sense, makes sense... Marzipan won't know what hit her! Alright, Strong Mad, dial the number!

STRONG MAD: {picks up the phone} Uh... Um...

STRONG BAD: {snatches phone} Never mind, I'll dial the number. Um... Never mind, The Cheat, you dial the number.

THE CHEAT: {Takes the phone from Strong Bad and dials Marzipan's phone number as he makes some The Cheat noises. He hands the phone back to Strong Bad as it rings.}

PHONE OPERATOR: We're sorry, the mailbox of the answering machine you're trying to prank is full! Please try again later.

STRONG BAD: What? Why the crap is her mailbox full?

{Cut to Marzipan's answering machine, which is bulging, appears to be in poor condition, and has green goo coming out the bottom. The display shows glitchy symbols throughout the toon.}

Marzipan's Greeting

MARZIPAN: Hi, this is Marzipan. I'll be out and about for about seven years, so I'll give you a call back after that. Thank you!

Message 1

AUTOMATED VOICE: Message 1 from: June 17th, 2009.

STRONG BAD: {falsetto} Oh, hey, Marzipan! This is Joanie Allthetime, uh, your acupuncturist. Calling you to tell you, I, I had a new do-it-yourself-from-home program. That means you don't have to come to see me no more to stick needles in you! So I want you to wander around your house, uh, reciting your— this new mantra that I will give you. Which is, um, Yoplait, Fage, Oikos, um, Activia. So you just say that over and over again, and then pick up any sharp or even blunt objects around your house and just jab them right, right into you! Um, I would work the kidneys first, and then from there, move on to— to the eyes. Okay, namaste, have yourself a real nice day! Ha, hey, that's a new mantra! Don't use that one, though; use the yogurt one.

Message 2

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {in a halting voice, like a stereotypical robot} Hey, Marzipan. This is Homestar Runner. I heard that you got a new smartphone, so instead of leaving you a message, I'm texting this to you. Smileyman, winky smileyman, wineglass wineglass 90s camcorder, send.

Message 3

AUTOMATED VOICE: You have a call from: Free Country USA Penitentiary.

COACH Z: Uh, surprise, surprise, Marzipan! Guess where I ended up! The hoosegow! They only give ya one phone call here, so I couldn't think'a anyone better to blow it on than you, Marzi. Uh, I'm gonna— I'm gonna be away for a while, I think, here. You're— you're gonna hear a lot of stuff comin' out on the news. I want you to ignore seventy-five to ninety-eight percent of it, if you could. Uh, the part where they say that my name is Coach Z? Uh, you can listen to that. The part where they say I'm mostly green? That— that's a— that's a fact. That's a police fact. The rest I would just ignore if I was you. Anyways, Bubs is gonna represent me, so that'll be fun. Hey, and get this: they say I'm a flight risk! That sounds like somethin' you'd see on a trophy, doesn't it? "Coach Z: First Place Flight Risk! Two hundred thousand dollar bail!"

AUTOMATED VOICE: Call ended... for being way too depressing.

Message 4

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, man, Marzipan! Have you heard about the new internet craze, planking? It is gonna be around forever, and I'm gonna be doing it forever! Etched into the halls of history!

Message 5

BUBS: Hey, Marzipan, it's Bubs! Look, I been thinking that maybe I need a catch phrase or something. Seems like everybody else got one. Strong Bad says "holy crap", Homestar says "seriously", Coach Z can't speak English. But what about Bubs? All anybody remembers about me is how I once stole an aircraft carrier. What kinda legacy is that? So I got a list here of some catch phrase candidates. Lemme— lemme try 'em out on you, see whatcha think. "Zabbledoo!" Huh? "Zabbledoo"? I'd say it like, "Zabbledoo, Marzipan! What can I zabbledoo for you?" I think that sounds pretty good. I can also go with something classic, like yellin' "Scarborough Fair!" Whaddya think of that? Or like somethin' that sounds like it's from the fifties or sixties maybe? "Put it to me!" Huh? "Put it to me"? I dunno. If you think of any ideas, gimme a shout! Poppodoplous!... Naw, that's terrible.

Message 6

STRONG SAD: {speaks with an obvious lisp throughout the message} Uh, happy New Years, Marzipan. It's Strong Sad. It's, uh, January first, 2011. And, uh, I've decided to try something new this year. It's gonna be a whole new Strong Sad. Can you guess— can you guess what it is? I feel like people don't notice my personality, so I'm trying to give 'em something to grasp onto. Have you guessed what it is yet? Hmmm? Marzipan? Anyways, I think this is the dawn of a new day for old SS. I'm thure I'm gonna keep this up for thhh— for many years to come. This is not just one of my phases, like the eye patch, or the cane, or the monocle, or the bowler hats, or the jodhpurs. Oh, those were dark times, those jodhpurs days. Anyways, this is the new Strong Sad signing off!

Message 7

STRONG SAD: {without the lisp} Hey, Marzipan. It's January second, 2011. Disregard my last message. I don't— I don't know what I was thinking. What a surprise, I've already backtracked. I couldn't even go a whole twenty-four hours! "The new Strong Sad"... Maybe— maybe the jodhpurs weren't such a bad idea. I'm gonna go see if I can find those!

Message 8

STRONG BAD: {in a smooth and smarmy voice} Good afternoon, Mrs. Pan. This is Vince Napmaker from public radio's "The World is my Butt". We wanted to call you to thank you for being a continued supporter of public radio. But we wanted to ask you if you'd be willing to increase your support. Every dollar counts. Do you have any idea how much it costs to ask like you're this much better than everyone else? And furthermore, our uppity podcasts aren't going to create themselves. So please, as always, for the sake of tote bags everywhere, put a bunch of cash in a paper and/or plastic bag and leave it on the doorstep. {The public radio jingle plays over his next line.} This is Vince Napmaker for public radio. And now here's a supercut of Robert Siegel saying "I gather."

ROBERT SIEGEL: {at various different pitches} I gather— I gather— I gather— I gather— I gather— I gather— I gather— I gather—

Message 9

AUTOMATED VOICE: You have a call from: Free Country USA Penitentiary.

COACH Z: Hey, there, Marzipan! We won our first victory in the long fight to justice! I had my hearing yesterday, and guess what? They're gonna try me as a minor! Bubs tells me that's a good thing. So anyways, I'm celebratin' with a batch of jail terlet melonade! I wish you was here to clink glasses with me. Well, these aren't glasses so much as they're, uh, the little slippers they give us. They don't exactly clink. They just sorta s—slop together. Ya end up basically suckin' the melonade outta the— the sort of foam Dr. Scholls situation. Ya know what, after sayin' that out loud, I think I'm gonna skip this round. But anyways, {chanting} free Coach Z! Free Coach Z!

Message 10

HOMSAR: AaA, hey Marzipa-yan! It's Homsar! I was just calling you because, for some reason, I seem to be more articulate on the phone! I hate to hang up, knowin' as soon as I do, I'll be back to "AaAaA, you're a pork rind's president!" Or maybe like, "DaAaAon't get chipsy with the chalk sauce!" Y— you know, the kind of garbage that I spout! Anyways, gimme a holler if you ever wanna have a constructive conversation. OoOoOokay, bye-dee-bye!

Message 11

BUBS: {Soft tone} Hey Marzipan, it's Bubs. You know, the defense lawyer on the Coach Z case. I've been starting to have some pangs. Pangs of... this is a really terrible idea. Pangs of... he's totally guilty and you shouldn't be a lawyer. Pangs of... just what exactly is a charcuterie board, and why is it so expensive? Anyways, I think Coach Z did it, and I don't know if I can defend him anymore, whatever it is that he is accused of. I haven't really gotten around to asking anybody yet. I'm supposed to be in the court room defending him right now, but I snuck out to read some John Grisham novels to give me an edge, only I mixed him up with Michael Crichton, and now my defense is based around {Stretched out and delivered in a growl} DINOSAURS! Ba doo da dum, bo!

Message 12

HOMESTAR: Oh man, Marzipan. Kickstarter sensation the Ouya, they're gonna make games for that thing for the rest of eternity! Mark my words, every game that comes out from now until the end of time will also come out on the Ouya. Gonna outlive Sony, Nintendo, Coleco, Canseco, Jaleco, all of the heavy hitters. Anyways, I can't wait to be playing Ouya games in fifteen years, or even like, five months! Written in Sharpie on the bathroom wall of history!

Message 13

AUTOMATED VOICE: You have a call from: Free Country USA Penitentiary.

STRONG SAD: {Depressed and in fear} Uh, hey Marzipan. The jodhpurs did not work out! They did not work out! Why, jodhpurs? Why'd you do that to me, jodhpurs? How could you do this to me, jodhpurs?

Message 14

STRONG BAD: Hey Marzipan, it's Strong Bad. Look, I just wanted to run something by you, um... Everybody else I've talked to says that this is the worst idea I've ever had, and that my career will go down in flames if I do this, so you're my last hope to tell me that this is a great idea. As you know, it's June of 2012, which means we're coming up on the ten year anniversary of Everybody to the Limit, so I want to celebrate in grand fashion, and I figured what better way than to make a sequel! It's like... Fhqwhgads Revisited! Let me just play a little demo right here over the phone. {Singing} Let's fhqwhgads again! Let's fhqwhgads again! Let's fhqwhgads again! Let's fhqwhgads again! You remember that song, from that one summer. It was really good, and you emailed it to all your friends. Let's fhqwhgads again, so you can email it to all your friends! Let's fhqwhgads again, and now email your friends. Guess who will be there? Probably Joe and Jake. You remember Joe and Jake? I mentioned them in the first song. Th- this is the sequel. Let's fhqwhgads again! F-H-Q-W-H-GADS. F-H-Q-W-H-GADS. F-H-Q-W-H-GADS. So that's great, right? I mean, it's even better than the first one! So anyways, call me back, and tell me it's a great idea, so I can get The Cheat to work on a music video. Okay, bye! {Whispering} Let's fhqwhgads again! Let's fhqwhgads again!

Message 15

KEVIN: Hey Marzipan, this is Kevin. Um, did you, er... I'm trying to remember, did you borrow my Trivial Pursuit 80's edition? Give me a call back. Thanks.

Message 16

VISOR ROBOT: Marzipan, this is the Visor Robot. Listen, you need to tell Strong Bad not to do this "Let's Fhqwhgads Again" crap. It is so terrible. I don't want to sully my good name. Come on Marzipan. Do not let him do this, okay? See you around.

Message 17

THE POOPSMITH: {speaks in a deep voice} Hey, Marzipan. This is a little weird, but, um... this is The Poopsmith. Yes. I woke up today, and it just kind of hit me... I think I'm sick of the whole "vow of silence" crap. In fact, I think I'm sick of crap, in general. I mean, have I been limiting myself all this time by smith-ing poop? Imagine all the other stuff I could have been smith-ing. Bread; I could be a bread smith, you know. I could have been a song smith, like Mike Nesmith, from The Monkees, the guy with the wool hat, who wrote the song Different Drum, you know. {sings} "You and I, travel to the beat of a different drum". {speaks} Or an 80's rocker like Ron Sexsmith or a Mark E. Smith smith, or a Smiths smith. Any of those things. I don't know. Maybe I'm crazy. Anyway, if you can think of any other things that end in "smith", give me a call back. If I don't hear from you, just... ah, forget the whole thing. I'll go back to the vow of silence. It was nice talking to you. It was nice... talking.

Message 18

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, man, Marzipan, I don't think I'm feeling so good. I think I've got a bad case of... Linsanity! Oh, man! Have you seen this kid? Jeremy Lin! He can't be stopped! He's gonna score 30 points a game for the rest of his career! The Nicks are never gonna let this guy go! Face of the franchise. I will never forget Linsanity. Carved into the tree trunk of history!

Message 19

AUTOMATED VOICE: You have a call from: Free Country USA Penitentiary.

Coach Z: Marzipan! We've had a huge break in the case! It turns out there's a piece of evidence that can completely exonerate me, but I need youse to get it for me, and all ya gotta do is go to my locker room and get it. I can't believe it! I'm gonna be a free man! Okay, so as soon as you're done listening to this message, go straight to my locker room. Go to the far locker on the left. Open it up, and you're gonna see... Well, Marzipan, I apologize in advance. You're gonna see a pile of jocks. But I know you can do it. Just, just coat your hand in a spray of Right-Guard beforehand and you'll be fine. And once you get to the bottom of that pile, you'll see a folder labeled "Exoneratin' Evidence." I know, who'd a thought right? I had it sitting there all along. Anyways I can't tell you how happy I am, that you're gonna free me from prisons. It's been real hard Marzipan, but you, you're listenin' to this message in a timely fashion, I know you are, you always have, and you're gonna go do this for me right after listenin' to this and not wait five or six years. I just know it. I'll see you in the courtroom. {chanting} Free Coach Z! Free Coach Z!

Message 20

STRONG SAD: Oh, hey Marzipan. It's Strong Sad. I've just been feeling really depressed, 'cause, because I haven't been acting very depressed. It used to be my thing, but I don't feel like I get to be sad and depressing anymore, like I used to. So I just want to kinda beef up my numbers in the sad and depressing column. So I may be leaving you some messages, you know sort of dark, inner demons, and that kind of thing. Should be fun.

Message 21

STRONG BAD: {speaks like an automated voice} Greetings, Marzipan. This is an automated call from Grody Lab Results, Incorporated. Your test results are: negative.

STRONG SAD: {shouting in the background} Negative is good when you're talking about lab results!

STRONG BAD: {speaking normally} Wait, what? Oh, {automated voice} your test results are: positive. {normally} Are you sure? It sounds like I'm giving her good news.

STRONG SAD: I don't want to be party to this!

STRONG BAD: {speaking normally} They should be less confusing. {automated voice} your test results are: terrible. And you're dying, or possibly already dead by the time you get this. If you want us to perform experimental surgery on you and, like, sew a llama head onto your existing head, please call back during regular putting-llama-heads-on-people hours and we will schedule an appointment. This prank call has not been my finest execution. Thank you and have a nice day.

Message 22

STRONG SAD: {dejected voice} It's taking way too long for the sun to swallow up the earth.

Message 23

STRONG SAD: {dejected voice} At the end of the day today, think about how all you did today was look at your phone.

Message 24

STRONG SAD: {dejected voice} I'm sad that I'm trying. {normal voice} Take that, not-depressing Strong Sad! Now I feel great! I feel real happy! ...Oh.

Message 25

THE KING OF TOWN: Uh, hey, Marzipan. I-I don't really know how else to ask this, but um... Am I your dad?! I was lookin' on the internet for "marzipan glazed ham", and uh... I got some weird results that seemed to think that at— at least at one time, you were my daughter? It's kind of freakin' me out over here. Um... I wish I could take, like, a— a DNA test, but I've had my DNA surgically replaced with MSG! Um, if you could shed any light on this, um... I mean, I get— I think I'm— I think I'm dying... Also, I probably should have led with that... Uh, so, I kind of need to know if you're my daughter, and if I should leave everything to you. Otherwise I'm probably leaving it to 80's rocker Ron Sexsmith. Remember him? From the Monkees?

Message 26

MITCH: Hey, Marzipan, it's Mitch from Sloshy. Uh, I wanted to send you the tracks for that split 7-inch we're doin' with Cool Tapes, except, uh, Sloshy broke up again, and I also pawned all of our instruments. So... I'm just going to do the tracks over the phone. One, two, three, four... {a capella accompaniment starts in the background} {singing} Phonin' this one in, phonin' this one in, usin' the phone as instrument. You know what I meant. And is this a gimmick? Or a cop-out? And is there a difference? {accompaniment continues for a few more seconds, then the song ends} And that's it. Let me know when you've got it mixed and mastered. And uh... give me a shout next time you're in Austin. Or Portland. Or... Brooklyn. Or... Silverlake. We'll get breakfast.

Message 27

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh man, Marzipan. Can you hear that? That is the majestic hush of a paradigm shift. That's right. Me and Pom Pom are waiting in line for our Google Glass! I can't wait to be like, lookin' through this thing! And like, seein' other things! I honestly can't remember how I lived my life yesterday, without Google Glass. These things are gonna change the way they build cities! I'm talkin' beso segway style. Alright, I gotta go. It's almost me and Pom Pom's turn! Blinking photographs into the profile pics of history!

Message 28

STRONG BAD: {speaks in a Southern voice} Hey, Marzipan. This is... the new girl character in town. Sharp Dean. That's my name, Sharp Dean. You'd better watch your back! You're not the only girl around no more! Now that Sharp Dean's gonna stake her claim! I'm a real good character. You look like a broomstick? Well, guess what. I look like... a coat rack. Skinny Tall. That... that was my grandmummer's name. Grandmummer Skinny Tall. She is dead! Hey, guess what, Marzipan, since I'm Sharp Dean. We gon' fight. We gon' fight one another. How 'bout a stick? Do you have a boyfriend, I'ma steal your boyfriend. My daddy owns a movin' company. So if he don't want me to pound you into salt... patch, then you'd better bake me somethin' gooood, Marzipan. That's right, some kind of pie, brownies, cakey... Now you leave that for me... where I'm stayin' at. Which is Strong Bad's kitchen table. Okay! Sharp Dean is on the prowl! This is goin' somewhere!

Message 29

KEVIN: Hey, Marzipan. This is Kevin, um... Could you please give me a call? I just really need to get that, uh, Trivial Pursuit back, thanks.

Message 30

CLARK: Hey, Marzipan, it's Clark from Sloshy. Uh, look, Mitch called me and convinced me to do a backing vocal track on your answering machine, so... here it goes. Gonna be a lot of dead air. {slightly distant and echoey-sounding} One, two, three, four. {long pause} I think he's phoning this one in. {long pause} I know what he meant. {long pause} Is this a gimmick? {pause} Is this a cop-out? {pause} I'm pretty sure there's not a difference. {long pause} {vocal effects gone} Alright, thanks. Oh, and uh, somehow I ended up with your copy of 80's Trivial Pursuit? Let me know if you need that back.

Message 31

PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, hey, Marzipan! This is Puppet Homestar! That's right! Comin' atcha! Puppet style! I've got eight percent more sass than regular Homestar! When I talk, I kinda go like this, I kinda thrust my head out with each word. Listen to my mouth-flaps! {makes several felt-flapping sounds} Oh yeah. You tell 'em. You tell 'em, Felt-mouth. And I would like to leave you with a little "spin my {exaggerates his speech impediment} buzzer". {The sound of Homestar's "buzzer" being spun is heard.} Puppet Homestar is gone!

Message 32

LITIGATION JACKSON: Good afternoon, Marzipan! This is Litigation Jackson! I'm the prosecuting attorney in the case against Coach Z! We understand you've been heresed, harassed, and harangued by Coach Z over the years! We'd like to know if you'd be willing to take a stand! You could be a very valuable witness in this case! Please give me a call back, post-haste! That's not a legal term, but it sounds official! And so say all of us, "The system really works, jerks!"

Message 33

LARRY PALARONCINI: Hey, Marzipan! This is Larry Palaroncini! I'm from the band Limozeen! What's the big idea doin' a split 7-inch with that short-haircut, glasses-havin', I-don't-even-know-what-you-call-the-opposite-of-leather-pants-wearin' band Sloshy? I thought we were gonna collaborate! You're supposed to be an instrumental part of our big comeback! We're comin' up on the thirteenth anniversary of our hit song, Nite Mamas! And I've got a great idea for a sequel! {music starts in the background} {singing} Let's Nite Mamas again, let's Nite Mamas agai— {Larry is cut off by the end of the message}

Message 34

STRONG BAD: {speaks in a fake foreign accent} Oh, yes, Marzipan. This is your foreign boyfriend, Rongardo Shavemybody. It's so nice to hear your voice again on machine of answers. I miss all the time we spent in foreign lands together, havin' exotic foods. I'm visiting your country now, and want you to come and meet with me. I hear there's a lovely little café in a place called Strong Badia. Would you go, please, and wait for me there? As is the custom of my people, I will be very late, and you should wait for a really long time. You will think that it is too long to be waiting, but I assure you it is the custom of my people, and you don't want to be offending my people, do you? Alright. I kiss you on both sides of your cheek and underneath your chin. As is the custom of... my people. And now I bid you farewell in the most prime language of my country. Braunschweiger!

Message 35

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, hey Marzipan. It's Homestar. I was just callin' to ask you— {the line is repeated many times forwards, backwards, and at different frequencies, until finally slowing down} {in a voice similar to his voice in very early toons} Oh, hey Marzipan. It's Homestar. Uh, me and Pom Pom were just here, you know, hangin' out, somewhere in the years 1999 to 2001, and... Pom Pom's great. He's my best friend, and... you're my girlfriend, and... maybe we can all be friends, uh, this weekend, uh, that's like rap music, huh? Um, I just wanted to let you know that I'm gonna sound this way forever. Okay, bye!

Message 36

BUBS: Hey, Marzipan. You know how you're always buggin' me to start carryin' organic stuff at the concession stand? Well, I finally listened to you. If, by "organic", you meant "of or pertaining to the illegal selling and trade of human organs". I got ice packs, little Igloo coolers, scalpels, discounts on hotel rooms, bathtubs fulla ice, chloroform, and fifteen pass Econoline vans pre-lined with plastic sheeting! So come on down to Bubs' Organic Concession Stand! Where we're keepin' that one urban legend alive! You know the one I'm talkin' about?

Message 37

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, hey, Marzipan's sister. This is Homestar. I was just callin' with a status update, to let you know that Marzipan still has no idea {in a suggestive tone} what you and I've been up to. I say that in this kind of way. That some might think is suggestive. {normal voice} Anyways, you got nothin' to worry about. I am extra careful! I mean, could you imagine what would happen if I accidentally mixed you guys up, {laughing} and like, called the wrong sister? Oh man. The crap storm that would unleash. Ha-ha! I'm laughing so effortlessly! Because it's so unlikely! {sigh of laughter} So, to recap, Marzipan has a sister, {suggestive voice} suggestive styles, {normal voice} and, she's got no idea what's going on between us. Okay, bye.

Message 38

STRONG SAD: Hey, Marzipan, it's Strong Sad. I was just callin' to letcha know I, I just got the approved permits from Bubs, so Wilted Salad Festival 2014 is on! {speaks in a progressively more excited and rapid voice} We've got arugula, we've got kale, we've got baby spring mix, we got napa cabbage, we got endive, we got chard, we got Swiss chard, we got so many different types of wilted salad it's makin' me talk like some sort of turn-of-the-century state fair kinda guy! {more normal voice} Phew! Got a little carried away. Anyways, definitely come on out. It's gonna be ridiki-o! Oh, man. I gotta go put that on the poster!

Message 39

TUCKER DONALDSON: {in an angry voice} Look here, this— this message is for Marzipan, you know, 'cause— 'cause that's a real name. This is Tucker Donaldson from campussafety.gov; if you remember, we hired you, and, and, and, and your band Cool Tapes— huh! That's real clever— to play here in our student union, where you managed to incite a riot. Yeah, real free-alarm kind of thing. I— I— I'm not even sure it was music that you performed. No thanks, right? No thanks to that. I went out on a limb for you, you and your Cool Tapes, they just snapped my branch. Your— your— your tapes are not cool, in fact, how about that? That's the truth right there. I suggest you all get with the program, and by "program", I mean the guidelines set forth on campussafety.gov, herethere and foreto. So, please, at your immediate convenience, call me at Tucker Tuckerson at donaldsafety.gov, so we can deal with this matter. How's that, huh? How— how— h— h— how— how's that for hot tape?
