<div>[[Image:thydungeonmanbox.PNG|thumb|right|220px|400 page manual inside!]]<br />
On May 13, 2020, [[Matt Chapman]] read an excerpt from the 400-page '''instruction manual of [[Thy Dungeonman]]''' for the livestreamed second episode of the "Worst First Chapter" [[YouTube]] series, hosted by Paul and Storm of [[DaVinci's Notebook]]. This manual allegedly consists of 395 pages of lore, and 5 pages of PC instructions, and was written by [[Lem Sportsinterviews]].<br />
<br />
==Chapter 1==<br />
<blockquote><br />
"Wake yourself, boy!" rasped the old codger, sloshing a mug of cool, refreshing oatmeal square in the young man's face.<br />
{{clear|left}}<br />
Panicked, Collagen jolted up quickly from his bedroll of pulled pigeon, whole oats oozing from the patchy beard on his tender face of five and five and five years.<br />
<br />
"I love wagons!" he cried deliriously, wiping sleep out of, and oatmeal into, his bleary eyes. The room was dark. A silver sheen on the stone walls told Collagen that the moon was still up in the autumn sky outside, and a dull clanking announced that the barmess downstairs was gathering up the stoneware, about to close the plodding gentry for the night.<br />
<br />
"It must be around two full ticks past night's middle!" he thought to himself, wondering what could be so important that it couldn't wait until morning's griddle. "What is it, uncle?"<br />
<br />
The old man didn't respond and just sat blinking, as if each closing of his gray eyes added a protective layer between himself and the life-altering news he knew he had to impart on this oat-slick boy.<br />
<br />
"Uncle?"<br />
<br />
"A dungeon's been murdered."<br />
<br />
Collagen sucked in breath, and a couple of oats actually, causing himself to choke. "A dungeon? But how?" he sputtered.<br />
<br />
"Of course ye'd ask that. The youth... always questioning how a dank room what's made for the holding and torture of prisoners could ever be alive in the first place, so as to be eligible for the act of murderin'! You lot with your trendy jangled jester hats and your&mdash;"<br />
<br />
"Uncle Prevacid!" barked Collagen, sounding suddenly one and two years older. "I believe you!" the boy said softly, and laid a hand on his uncle's, immediately thinking better of it after his fingers touched something warm and jelly-like. He shifted his hand to one of Prevacid's knees&mdash; no, no, that was worse. He withdrew his hand altogether. "Which dungeon?"<br />
<br />
"The Roost of Remington, poor devil. And it was due for an adventure next feast-harvest! Mighta been ''your'' first dungeon if&mdash;" Collagen's uncle stopped short.<br />
<br />
"''My'' first dungeon?" the boy stiffened. "But I'm just the son of a son of a salvemonger! What's a murdered dungeon &mdash; or any dungeon for that matter got to do with me?"<br />
<br />
Prevacid attempted to soften, but it clearly hurt, so he went back to ornery and sighed, "'Tisn't your father ''or'' your grandfather that's important!" The old man leaned closer, a streak of moonlight cutting jagged across his jagged face, effectively cancelling out any jaggedness. "Your mother was a dungeonwoman."<br />
<br />
If Collagen had been holding the mug of oatmeal, he would've dropped it to the floor and it would've shattered in slow motion to great dramatic effect. Since he was only holding the hem of his flea-ridden burlap blanket, he dropped that instead and it just kinda went, "phfff" into his lap, although this action had a devastating effect on the fleas.<br />
<br />
"But father always said me marm was a bookstacker! Plain and dimpled, with a sallow face and a disposition like an unremarkable tree. He said such lovely things about her."<br />
<br />
"It was all on her orders! She didn't want the dungeon life for you! Too much danger and not enough Vitamin D! So she made your dad promise that when he made verbal her memory, it would sound like she was pleasant enough. A loving marm and a right perpendicular bookstacker, but fierce plain, so as not to merit any further investigations into her past."<br />
<br />
Collagen reeled, his gaze wandering about the room trying to find an anchor on which to hang this new reality, although a coat hook would probably have been more appropriate. Suddenly, a memory jumped from the dusty underbed toy box of his mind and into the fore. The paint was scratched off and its batteries had that dusty green corrosion stuff on them, but he recalled it with full clarity.<br />
<br />
"''That's'' why someone wrote 'Collagen's marm was a dungeonlady' on the wall of the public privy that one time! I always thought it was just old Pendace from salve school rubbin' the beef on me!"<br />
<br />
"'Tis no beef rub, boy, 'tis the goat's truth!" His uncle paused. "Also, stay away from the public privy. I hear Lek the Creepo's been sleepin' in there nights."<br />
<br />
A contradiction suddenly occurred to Collagen. "But if me marm asked me da to hide her dungeon history, why're you tellin' me now?"<br />
<br />
"Because she gave special orders to ol' Prevacid," said the old man, a proud glimmer or possibly just festering cateract in his eye. "Back when you were just a wee budgie, 'fore she left on any dungeon adventure, your marm would take me aside &mdash; rougly, mind you &mdash; had a grip like a pork viper, that one," he remembered, rubbing his shoulder, "And she'd say, 'Remember, Cid, if I don't ever return and there comes a day when you get word o' dungeons being murdered, it's time to tell the boy the truth!'"<br />
<br />
"I'm a dungeonman?" asked Collagen hopefully.<br />
<br />
"Ho ho!" laughed Prevacid, "Don't go diaperin' yourself just yet, your royal highness." The sarcasm made Collagen blush stupidly. "At best you're a dungeon''lad'', I s'pose. And by birthright only. No, ye've got quite a road to travel yet if you're ever to be a proper dungeonman."<br />
<br />
Collagen's shoulders sagged. He felt foolish. Just because he found out his mother was a dungeonwoman didn't mean he would all of a sudden be amazing at dungeon adventures, and breeze through thy dungeonschool thanks to his smarter friends, and unnaturally excel at the dungeonsports despite no experience with them, and generally be at the center of every world-endangering dungeon conspiracy. That would be stupid and make him a very blank and uninteresting hero in the end, more defined by those around him, with his best traits feeling entirely unearned. That would work okay for his first couple of stories maybe, with the young children who read them inserting themselves into the blank canvas of Collagen's character, but as the stories went on, readers would disconnect, finding Collagen's colorful friends and enemies more interesting, relatable, and cosplayable. He was just Collagen Salvemonger the Third, a lad of five and five and five years who secretly loved wagons, and still kinda believed in the tooth rot fairy.<br />
<br />
"Now stop your potterin', boy," said Prevacid, sensing the boy's self-consiousness. He tried to put a warmth in his tone, which mostly sounded like a sinus infection, and continued, "Inexperienced ye may be, but your role is of great input nonetheless! It's on ''you'' to find out who murdered that dungeon, and put a stop to it lest we lose anymore!"<br />
<br />
"You mean I don't have a choice? What if I want to keep mongering salves? Dongering ointments? Hongering balms?" Collagen pented desperately.<br />
<br />
"Ye ''do'' have a choice, ya dolt boulder!" spat Prevacid impatiently, swatting his nephew with his flat, dillow-fur cap. "Why'd you think I'm waking you up in night's middle? So if you want to run off and disappear into the har hills before the village awakes, ye have the chance! What, did you think I'd tell ya, 'This is your destiny and you have to follow it'? I know how those stories go! They're long! And fulla dangers! And pages and pages of really boring songs meant to add to the mythology and all that! I'd not force that on you, boy! Not unless you wanted it!"<br />
<br />
"Thank you, uncle," Collagen said softly.<br />
<br />
His uncle motioned to the floor where two pouchels lay like obedient pets. "I've packed two pouchels for ye. One has all you need to flee to the har hills and start a new life with a new identity as a travelling goat-pretender. T'other has all the tips, tricks, and cheat codes your mom left ya, to take up the mantle of thy dungeonman! The choice is yours." Prevacid stood from where he uncomfortably squatted at the foot of the bedroll, picking off puffs of pulled pigeon from his patched pants, and left the room. "I'll be downstairs in the plodding gentry when you've made up your mind," he called back from the hallway.<br />
<br />
Collagen stared long at the pouchels, seeing his various potential futures stream out of them like fumes in the moonlight, before realizing they were actually real fumes from the grody old cheese that his uncle had packed in each.<br />

'''Viidelectrix''' is a series of [[Videlectrix]] [[games]] designed to be played on the [[Wikipedia:Internet Channel|Internet Channel]] for [[Nintendo|Nintendo's]] [[Wikipedia:Wii|Wii]] console. All of the games available on the Viidelectrix menu have been modified for use with the [[Wikipedia:Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] or the mouse pointer and no longer require keyboard input (including [[Population: Tire]], which took both cosmetic changes to its loading screen and instructions and moved the hitbox slightly so the tire bounces off the tip of the Wii "player one" finger). However, one is now able to play any of the standard Videlectrix games by plugging a USB Keyboard into the Wii, since the Wii Browser has supported USB Keyboards since 2007. <br />
<br />
The page itself appears to be modeled after the [[Wikipedia:Wii Channels|Wii Channels]] interface. The sounds are modeled after those in the Internet Channel (usually played on the Wii Remote's speaker), which normally do not play when scrolling over a button contained in a Flash file.<br />

<div>[[Image:stinkoman.PNG|thumb|220px|"Are you asking for a CHALLENGE?!!"]]<br />
<br />
{{aboutcharacter}} {{forgame|Stinkoman 20X6}}<br />
<br />
[[Image:stinkoman20X6normal.PNG|left|Looking for challenge]]<br />
'''Stinkoman''' (also spelled '''Stinko Man''') is [[Strong Bad]]'s [[20X6]] counterpart. He is an amalgam of [[anime]] clichés. This includes having blue hair; big eyes; a blocky sort of body; a head shaped like a bean; a mouth that is very small when closed, very large when open, and out of sync with his speech (a parody of poor dubbing). He also has a [[Green Tongues|tongue that is sometimes green]], and an obsession with [[challenge]]s and fighting. He was introduced on January 6, 2003 in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[japanese cartoon]], which makes his birthday fall exactly one week before [[Trogdor]][[dragon|'s]]. His name is taken from [[island]] when [[Homestar Runner]] calls Strong Bad "Stinkoman". Stinkoman also stars in the game [[Stinkoman 20X6]], which [[The Brothers Chaps]] introduced in the [[NYU Talk - 1 Mar 2005|NYU Talk]] and later released on [[homestarrunner.com]].<br />
<br />
Stinkoman's theme song, which accompanied most of his early appearances and featured pseudo-Japanese lyrics (actually the words "Challenge" and "Fighting" repeated as if spoken by a Japanese person), was actually a background tune from the NES racing game [[wikipedia:Rad Racer|Rad Racer]]. The composer, [[wikipedia:Nobuo Uematsu|Nobuo Uematsu]], would later be famous for the soundtracks of the [[wikipedia:Final Fantasy|Final Fantasy]] games and the main theme of [[wikipedia:Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Super Smash Bros. Brawl]].<br />
<br />
Stinkoman employs technology to arrange, engage in, and practice for his challenges. He has a [[Cell Phones|cell phone]] which he uses to challenge [[Marzipan]] in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0]]. When the distance to his foes is too far, he whistles for the [[Stinkoman 20X6 Playable Characters#Stinkowing|Stinkowing]] for transportation. According to [[alternate universe]], Stinkoman uses his friend [[Vector Strong Bad]] as his "training simulator", but when he's not preparing for upcoming challenges, he relaxes by playing the [[Nintendo|Nintendo Entertainment System]] at [[Stinkoman Headquarters]]. Stinkoman's favorite foods appear to be chicken soup with dumplings, [[bread]], power crunches, pudding, and [[prawns]], as seen in Stinkoman 20X6.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Mega Man & Stinkoman.PNG|thumb|220px|Stinkoman vs. Mega Man]]<br />
Various facets of Stinkoman's persona refer specifically to characters in real-world popular culture. In particular, Stinkoman is very similar in build to the NES incarnation of [[Wikipedia:Mega Man (character)|Mega Man]], who also had blue hair at one point. In fact, Stinkoman's sprite in ''Stinkoman 20X6'' is a modified version of the original Mega Man sprite. <br />
<br />
Stinkoman's lines, "Are you asking for a challenge?!" and "No way, you're just a kid! Maybe when you're older!" are very similar in both content and intonation to messages spoken by the ''[[Wikipedia:Mega Man 8|Mega Man 8]]'' boss Tengu Man: "Are you worthy of my challenge?" and "It's just a kid, don't make me laugh!" The line "No way, you're just a kid! Maybe when you're older!" is used several times in the anime movie ''[[Wikipedia:Akira (film)|Akira]]''. The 20X6 and ''Akira'' connection appears again in an Easter egg in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]]. It is thought that his voice is based on [[IMDb:nm0164682|Cam Clarke's]] rendition of ''Akira'''s protagonist, [[Wikipedia:Shotaro Kaneda (Akira)|Kaneda]].<br />
[[Image:StinkomanPlussign.png|thumb|right|150px|"plus sign-endowed grill"]]<br />
<br />
When Stinkoman grits his teeth, [[Wikipedia:Plus and minus signs|plus signs (+)]] make up the cracks between them. The character [[Wikipedia:Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong]] in the original [[Wikipedia:Donkey Kong (video game)|''Donkey Kong'' arcade game]] was also depicted with plus signs to indicate the separate teeth in his mouth. Finally, Stinkoman has worn the [[Halloween Costumes|costume]] of another Japanese cartoon character, [[Wikipedia:Speed Racer|Speed Racer]], as seen in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]].<br />
<br />
Stinkoman has a strange habit of eating dirt, such as when he finds [[the time capsule]] in [[time capsule|the email of the same name]]. Additionally, in [[Under Construction]], he tastes what he thinks is dirt even though it turns out to be [[pudding]].<br />
<br />
His trademark attack is the "[[double deuce]]", which shows him holding his "hands" in front of himself and shouting "DOUBLE DEUUUUUUUCE!!!" while a glowing aura surrounds him, similar to various attacks done by Goku in [[Wikipedia: Dragonball Z|Dragonball Z]].<br />

'''''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda (series)|The Legend of Zelda]]''''' series of adventure games is usually considered one of the "core titles" for [[Nintendo]] systems (along with [[Mario]]). It is not surprising that [[the Brothers Chaps]] have made numerous references in the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work to these games.<br />
<br />
==Appearances==<br />
*[[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]] — When the pumpkin is given to [[The Poopsmith]], the "secret revealed" jingle from the series plays. It particularly comes from ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]''.<br />
*Email [[japanese cartoon]] — One of the "NES Endings" that can be seen at the end is from [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda (video game)|the original ''Legend of Zelda'']]. Additionally, the credits for Stinkoman K are taken from that game.<br />
*Email [[interview]] — One of the replacement [[Strong Bad]] [[sticky note]] drawings resembles the Bubble enemy from various ''Zelda'' games. This drawing also appears in [[Decemberween Short Shorts]].<br />
*[[Peasant's Quest]] — The save screen resembles the one from ''The Legend of Zelda''.<br />
**When Rather Dashing gets the Kerrek's belt, he holds it above his head much like Link does with various items.<br />
*[[Stinkoman 20X6]] features several ''Zelda'' references:<br />
**My Benj resembles the Bit enemies in ''[[Wikipedia:Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''.<br />
**Stlunko is similar to many video game bosses that consist of a mostly inactive head defended by two enormous disembodied hands. Such bosses are popular in the ''Zelda'' series, such as Bongo-Bongo from ''[[Wikipedia: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', Gohdan from ''[[Wikipedia: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', and Mazaal from ''[[Wikipedia: The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]''.<br />
**Saargtsson is very similar in appearance and style to {{p|l=http://www.zeldauniverse.net/content/view/62/46/ Moldorm}} from the ''Zelda'' series, or possibly Volvagia, who also lives in a lava-filled area.<br />
*[[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]] — [[Homsar]] is dressed as [[Wikipedia:Tingle|Tingle]], a recurring character who debuted in ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Like the character he is portraying, Homsar throws confetti and is also seen floating on a balloon. Homsar's line spoken here also refers to Tingle's selling of maps.<br />
**Also, one of his "responses" ("That's A Lot! A Lot! A Lot! A Lot!") is spoken by the bank teller in Clock Town whenever the player deposits between 10 and 99 Rupees at once.<br />
*[[Why Come Only One Girl?]] — [[The Hurricane]] is said to have never appeared because [[The Brothers Chaps]] were distracted by a new ''Legend of Zelda'' game. [[Homestar Runner]] responds to this with "Why, [[Wikipedia:Ganondorf|Ganondorf]], why?!", and then captures [[Marzipan]] in a bottle just as [[Wikipedia:Link (Legend of Zelda)|Link]] does with fairies, while singing the "item received" jingle from the series.<br />
**In the [[Why Come Only One Girl?#Commentary Transcript|commentary]], [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] and [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] agree that the Zelda game in question is probably ''The Wind Waker''.<br />
*Email [[the chair]] — A hidden picture reads "[[nice try]] dodongo!". [[Wikipedia:Recurring enemies in The Legend of Zelda series#Dodongo|Dodongos]] are dinosaur-like monsters in ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.<br />
*[[Strong Badia The Free]] — The three-headed spider in Country is similar to {{p|l=http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Trinexx Trinexx}}, the guardian of Turtle Rock Dungeon in ''A Link To The Past''.<br />
*Email [[unnatural]] ([[unnatural#Commentary Transcript|DVD commentary]]) — Mike and Matt mention that King Bubsgonzola Supreme's intro closeup and name display are similar to bosses in the 3D titles of ''The Legend of Zelda'' series. <br />
*[[8-Bit is Enough]] — Homestar will, at one point, pop up and say "Hey! Listen!" in the same fashion as Navi in ''Ocarina of Time''. The locked door at game's end is also similar to those in ''Ocarina''.<br />
**Near the end of the game, after defeating [[Trogdor]], Strong Bad dances similarly to the way Link dances in ''The Wind Waker'' after defeating a boss.<br />
*[[Compy Catalog]] — The Poopsmith is wearing the uniform and bag of the Postman from ''Majora's Mask'' and ''Twilight Princess,'' though with a picture of The Cheat in place of the rabbit.<br />
*[[Punkin Stencils]] — When the stencil of Devil Homestar is unlocked, the "secret revealed" jingle from the series plays.<br />
*[[Doomy Tales of the Macabre]] — A few ''Zelda'' references are featured:<br />
**[[The Poopsmith]] is dressed as Darunia, from ''Ocarina of Time''.<br />
**Strong Bad is dressed up as the Skull Kid, from ''Majora's Mask'', wearing the titular mask. <br />
**In an Easter egg, Homestar sings "Saria's Song", which prompts the Poopsmith to dance (as Darunia does when he hears Saria's Song).<br />
**In a different Easter egg, Strong Bad makes fun of the moon in Majora's Mask, as [[The Moon|the Free Country, USA moon]] blinks with a face resembling the one from that game.<br />
*[[The House That Gave Sucky Tricks Teaser]] &mdash; Decompiling the Flash file reveals the message "dislike smoke" behind the silhouettes. This is a reference to the original Legend of Zelda game, in which an old man says to the player, "DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE." This phrase was chosen because of the [[the chair]] message accessed the same way.<br />
*[[SBCG4AP Playthrough]] &mdash; During the livestream, Strong Bad hums the recorder theme and Epona's song because he wants to travel across [[The Field]] without having to walk. Also, immediately after Homestar Runner moves into the [[Basement of the Brothers Strong]], Strong Bad remarks that the second half of the game is the time when he receives the sword and has to explore the temples.<br />
*[[Final Hours Playthrough]] &mdash; Strong Bad, while off-screen, plays a butchered version of Saria's Song on a [[Casio keyboard]], calling it the Lost Woods theme.<br />
*[[Mr. Poofers Must Die]] — [[The Cheat]] is dressed up as a Korok, from ''The Wind Waker'' and ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.<br />
*[[The Homestar Runner Enters the Spooky Woods Teaser]] — [[The Homestar Runner (storybook)|The Homestar Runner]], again referring to the Easter egg from [[the chair]], says "Nice try, Dodongo!" to [[Tiny-Handed Strong Bad]].<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...this guy!<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, settle down there, son.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ahh! Don't call me that!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hup! Sounds like somebody needs a juice box.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Shut up, da&mdash;I mean, Homest&mdash;I mean, get outta here!<br />
<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a man with a hat shaped like a "Del" key, holding a card in front of him.}''<br />

''{The next image appears. It shows two people with ponchos draped over them. The ponchos have images of Strong Bad and The Cheat on them.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Bags. Couple of big bags. So wait, are you dressed up as a potato with me painted on it? 'Cuz it's a pretty good potato-with-me-painted-on-it costume if that's what you were shootin' for.<br />
<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a person in all black holding a shovel.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' No way! A Sticklyman costume! ''{An image of Sticklyman appears.}'' Uh, I mean...<br />

''{The next image appears. It's a man in a disheveled room dressed as the Poopertrooper.}''<br />

<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a person in a Trogdor costume, with blocky-looking head. One arm is tucked inside the costume; the other is holding a lunch box marked "Cold Ones". Music from [[dragon]] plays.}''<br />

<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a car. The trunk is open, and designed to look like a giant mouth with sharp teeth. There are wings on the top, and a beefy arm coming out of one window. Some papers on the car's fender read "BURNINATOR", followed by an image of Trogdor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' TROGCAAAAAAAAAAR!!!<br />

''{The next image appears. It shows a man in a blue shirt and black pants. A piece of manila paper with eyes drawn on it partially covers his face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I've never seen a piece of manila paper put to such effective use! ''{An image of the Umpire appears.}'' And you're really selling it with that right arm ''{the right arm of both the costumed man and the Umpire blink}'', and that bow-legged stance. ''{the legs of both blink}'' If you were just three feet wider ''{the image stretches horizontally}'' and... not dressed up as a terrible character, this would be a perfect costume!<br />
<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a young man dressed in a black and white baseball shirt, with the Pistols for Pandas logo and a white ski mask covering his face, and holding a cap gun.}''<br />

<br />
''{The next image appears. It shows a person dressed as the creature from the Jibblies Painting, in the same pose, and holding a torch. Green rays come out of the image over the next line.}''<br />

*The [[FeedBurner Page#Ween - Fan Costumes and Contest Winners!|RSS description]] of this toon is:<br />
<blockquote>'''Strong Bad says''' - Listen tightly as I unload on all the unfortunate saps that decided to try and dress up like me or somebody less cool than me for Halloween this year. I also announce the winners of the Costume Contest. Man, those winners are losers. But seriously, thanks to all the lame-o's that dressed up. If I didn't make fun of you specifically this year, just know that deep down in my heart of hearts, I'm always making fun of you, regardless of the crap you have painted on your face, or the paper you have taped to your shirt.</blockquote><br />

''{A TV is shown playing a looping animation in Mario Paint of Homestar in The Field, with a smooth talking animation that has him repeatedly make an "ooh" shape with his mouth. The TV has "TeeBee" written on the side, and the top of the screen has a bar that reads "SPEED 10", along with a row of squares fading from yellow to red. The bottom of the screen has some icons.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh, it's smooth-mouth Homestar! What am I sayin'? Froosh, swoosh, boosh, moosh... Naw, there's gotta be a sentence I can make with these vowel sounds.

== Fun Facts ==<br />
===General===<br />
*The [[YouTube]] description for this compilation is "For a while there, short animations made with Mario Paint for SNES were posted every Thursday to the social mediums (until the SNES mouse broke and the replacements ordered from ebay were in even worse shape). Here they are all at once!"<br />
<br />
===Ooh Lips===<br />
*The homework sheet is in a similar style to the one at the end of [[death metal]], as well as the [[Homestar Quiz]].<br />
*"Baby, you got a stew going" is a reference to a line from ''[[wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV Series)|Arrested Development]]'' that [[Bubs]] previously referenced in [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]].<br />
<br />
=== Melonade and Bronco Trolley ===<br />
*This video references Bronco Trolleys (which come from [[Bronco Trolleys|the game of the same name]]) and [[melonade]], two foods that were mostly mentioned in the early days of the site.<br />
<br />
=== Drive-Thru Order === <br />
* Ibu-pro-pro is a [[portmanteau]] of [[Wikipedia:Ibuprofen|Ibuprofen]] and [[Ina-pro-pro]].<br />

''{Music plays as the cover of a storybook is shown against an orange background, titled "homestar runner enters the spooky woods contest" and subtitled "a thoroughly hallowed ween story for kids and children aboth"}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''{narrating}'' The Homestar Runner Enters the Spooky Woods Contest. Er&mdash;never mind. ''{an X appears over the word "contest"}''<br />
<br />
''{The first page shows The Homestar Runner against the same orange background, in front of a red-orange pumpkin. The caption reads, "Everyone loves The Homestar Runner. He is a terrific athlete."}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Everybody loves The Homestar Runner. ''{Homestar poses happily}'' He is an athletic terrife. ''{the caption changes to "athletic terrife"; Homestar plops down again and gives Strong Bad a weird look}''<br />
<br />
''{The next page shows The Homestar Runner and Pom Pom in the storybook field.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Once upon that singular time, The Homestar Runner and Pom Pom were playing it safe.<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner concentrates for a moment with his eyes closed, then straightens, his eyes popping.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Mmm... ah! I did it! Now it's your turn to think about a soft pillow, Pom Pom!<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles, eyelids lowered}''<br />
<br />
''{Enter Tiny-Handed Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and Strong Sad, each wearing a mask}'' <br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Up bounded The Fearsome Brothers Strong wearing scary monster outfits.<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' ''{wavy motion lines coming from his mouth}'' HORRORSHOW!!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Burped Strong Bad.<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' SUCH A FRIGHT!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Squelched The Homestar Runner, and he lay down and died.<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner lays down and turns transparent. A white ghost Homestar with a wiggly tail floats up from his body.}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Uh... that was unexpected.<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Admitted Strong Bad just now.<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{as his ghost}'' Oh no! I gave up the ghost!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' You'll stay that way unless you enter the spooky woods ''{the spooky woods is shown as ominous music plays}'' and face your 3 fears before the witching hour!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''[Said Strong Sad.]'' Quothed Lord High Plotlayer.<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{determined look}'' It's what I must do! Let's go Pom Pom! ''{draws out the second "Pom"}''<br />
<br />
''{Wide shot reveals Pom Pom is gone. Homestar looks distressed.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' But Pom Pom had already gone to a party at some rich kid's house.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to outside the Prince of Town's castle, where Pom Pom, wearing sunglasses, is floating in the pool. The Poopsmith bounces on the diving board repeatedly. Party music plays. Cut back to a close-up of The Homestar Runner.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{each gulp is simply captioned "gulp"}'' I (gulp) guess (gulpo) I'm on (gulpamundo) my own (Gulp Fantasy 2000).<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Tedioused The Homestar Runner at great risk to the listenability of the story.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the entrance to the spooky woods, where ghost Homestar floats in, looking nervous}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' And so The Dead Homestar Runner entered the Spooky Woods.<br />
<br />
''{The Dead Homestar Runner floats through the spooky woods}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No amount of gulps can express how scared I am!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Just then, he came face to face with his first fear!<br />
<br />
''{A life science textbook with a picture of a frog on the cover pops into existence before him, then opens to page 73, which has a picture of an pink organelle}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh no! Page 73 of my old life science textbook!<br />
<br />
'''COACH ZEE:''' ''{speaking as the organelle}'' Can you identify this organelle, that is located in a plant cell?<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Asked the life science textbook in Coach Z's voice for some reason.<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{angrily}'' I'm not gulp-afraid of you... Golgi Apparatus!<br />
<br />
'''COACH ZEE:''' Apporparortus! ''{the textbook closes and vanishes}''<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner's hat "ding"s into color}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That was easy! I'll have my corporeal form back in no time!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said The Homestar Runner after ''clearly'' consulting a thesaurus.<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner leaves the scene. The Brothers Strong rise up from behind a teal-colored bush with purple berries.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Meanwhile, behind a very great bush, the Brothers Strong were schemin' and steamin'.<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' All types of drat!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said Strong Bad, ''{not captioned}'' coining an awesome new phrase that will endure throughout the ages. ''{Tiny-Handed Strong Bad grins}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' We've got to make sure his next fear is so gruesome, he won't be able to face it!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' Grunt!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Grunted Grunt Mad.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I'm here because family is hard to say no to.<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said a pallid bust of Pallas.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to ghost Homestar floating through the woods}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' And so The Little-Bit-Less-Dead Homestar Runner forged ahead, and faced his next fear. Which was...<br />
<br />
''{A bathtub full of vomit and eyeballs appears against a pink and purple background as a spooky sound plays}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Eyeball barf bath!<br />
<br />
''{Wide shot. Strong Mad is vomiting eyeballs into the bathtub while Tiny-Handed Strong Bad stands by him.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, I'm not scared of that. Boooo! ''{jumps into the bathtub, sticks his head up, and spits out an eyeball}'' Pa-too!<br />
<br />
''{Close-up of The Homestar Runner, who is surrounded by a golden aura}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Luxuriates my skin!<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' What the...?<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Almost cussed Strong Bad. ''{Tiny-Handed Strong Bad puts a glove over his mouth}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{suddenly scared}'' But I am scared of... gulp gulp gulp gulp gulp gulp... FRILLY TOOTHPICKS!!!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Sad, who is holding a plate of club sandwiches with frilly toothpicks}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' And all eyes turned to Strong Sad's club sammich.<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' That's stupid! No one's afraid of frilly toothpicks!<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh. ''{gets out of the bath}'' Oh, you're right. Thanks Strong Bad!<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner gains his red star shirt.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''{"had" is not spoken aloud}'' And with that, The Homestar Runner ''[had]'' successfully faced his second fear.<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner floats on}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' All types of drat!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Repeated Strong Bad, flirting with oversaturating the market with his new phrase too soon.<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' It looks like we have to come up with something stupid and weird, not gruesome.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to The Homestar Runner floating through the woods}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' And so The Nearly-Not-Dead Homestar Runner ventured deeper into the spooky woods.<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Two down, one to go! I wonder what horrors my third fear will bring.<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Just then he came to a clearing in the woods.<br />
<br />
''{The Homestar Runner witnesses Tiny-Handed Strong Bad and Strong Mad playing ping-pong on a round kitchen table}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Look at us! We're playing ping-pong on a kitchen table. Not regulation in the slightest!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said Strong Bad wearing dress shoes with no socks. ''{close-up of Tiny-Handed Strong Bad's feet; he is indeed}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' While definitely illegal, I don't think non-regulation ping-pong is my third fear.<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Well it doesn't matter anyway, ''{wide silhouetted shot; the moon has a clock displayed on it that's nearly at midnight}'' 'cause it's almost the witching hour and now you'll be stuck like this forever!<br />
<br />
''{Dramatic close-up of Tiny-Handed Strong Bad whacking the ping-pong ball in midair}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' SLAMMA JAMMA!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And Strong Bad slammed the ball with wicked topspin. ''{the ball soars past The Homestar Runner in slow motion, then rolls into some brambles}'' And it flew into the Thorny Thicket, revealing...<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' OH NO!! My final fear!!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the gruesome sight of exactly what Homestar describes:}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' A half-decomposed raccoon being carried around by a family of wet pigeons!! ''{the pigeons approach the ping-pong ball}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to The Homestar Runner, Strong Mad and Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said the Homestar Runner in a ''children's book''. ''{the words each become italicized as he reads them}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Awww, but look. The gross wet pigeons think Strong Bad's ping-pong ball is an egg!<br />
<br />
''{The pigeons plus raccoon sit down on top of the ball}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' They're gonna hatch it!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the trio}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' They were just as gulp of me, as I was gulp of them!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Said the Homestar Runner, ''really'' shoe-horning some ''{Homestar poses with pride}'' kind of half-baked moral into this thing.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Behold! The witching hour!<br />
<br />
''{The moon clock strikes midnight with a gong sound}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' And so having faced his three fears, Homestar Runner gained back his corporeal form. ''{The Homestar Runner gains back his legs}'' Said narrator Strong Bad, who totally already knew what 'corporeal' meant, like, ''way'' before this book.<br />
<br />
''{Close-up on The Homestar Runner, whose backside seems to "ding"}''<br />
<br />
'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, hey hey! ''{wide shot; a transparent ghost tail is protruding from under his shirt}'' Looks like I get to keep my squiggily ghost-tail! ''{turns his rear to Tiny-Handed Strong Bad}'' Does it tickle your fancy, Mr. Strong Bad? ''{makes a duck face and starts making high-pitched noises}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' SUCH A FRIGHT!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Moaned Strong Bad and he lay down and died.<br />
<br />
''{Tiny-Handed Strong Bad lays down and turns transparent. A white ghost Strong Bad with a wiggly tail floats up from his body.}''<br />
<br />
'''TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Now ''I'' gave up the ghost!<br />
<br />
''{Silhouetted wide shot}''<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT TINY-HANDED STRONG BAD:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Laughed all the other characters in a satisfying, end-of-story fashion.<br />
<br />
''{The page turns to a gray "end." screen. As Strong Bad speaks, a new storybook appears: "strong bad's ghost enters the homestar runner", with an illustration of Tiny-Handed Strong Bad's ghost being sucked into a surprised The Homestar Runner.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' Join us next week, children, when we read "Strong Bad's Ghost Enters The Homestar Runner, Thereby Possessing Him Demonically". ''{the additional part of the title appears as he reads it}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the modern day characters, costume-less, standing in the field at night. Strong Bad is holding the book.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Such a great story, Strong Bad.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, I just r&mdash;read it. To you.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{puzzled}'' Um, I know.<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Say, is there something missin' here?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! We forgot to put on our cos''tumes''!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Wait, our ''cos''tumes or our cos''tumes''?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' We'd better peow outta here and get changed!<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' PEOW! ''{they dash off, then reappear in their Halloween costumes}''<br />

==Fun Facts==<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*The [[Wikipedia:Golgi apparatus|golgi apparatus]] is a part of a eukaryotic cell that encloses protein products within vesicles and transports them throughout the cell. Despite what this cartoon implies, it is not exclusive to plant cells.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:ASMR|ASMR]] stands for autonomous sensory meridian response. There are many YouTube videos that claim to trigger it to help people to relax, similar to the Falling Asleep Great with Character 1 false autoplay image from [[The Next April Fools Thing]].<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*This is the first time The Cheat is shown onscreen while speaking comprehensibly.<br />
*This is the first time all twelve main characters have an Easter egg when clicked on at the end.<br />
**In addition, there are fourteen Easter eggs, the most of any Homestar Runner toon, beating the previous record, [[Haunted Photo Booth]], by one.<br />
*The gong sound heard as the Witching Hour strikes comes from the 2013 first-person exploration/puzzle game ''[[wikipedia:Kairo (video game)|Kairo]]''.<br />
*Bubs's costume seems to indicate that his skin beneath his shirt is the same blue color as his face.<br />
*Strong Sad's mask is a goon from Popeye. This was previously referenced in the [[SBCG4AP Dev Blog]].<br />
**It might also be a proboscis monkey.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*The Poopsmith is seen partying at the pool, while he was specifically forbidden from entering in [[keep cool]].<br />
*While in costume, Homestar does not blink as he normally does.<br />
*Marzipan's line is presented in a slightly lower [[audio quality]] from the rest of the toon.<br />
*The contrast dial on the Compy in the Easter egg is not interactable. <br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
[[File:SpookyWoodsDragonFont.png|200px|thumb|I make drawing incorrect fonts fun!]]<br />
*In the Flash version, the first line on Strong Bad's computer is not displayed in the correct font. The same line is displayed correctly in the YouTube version.<br />
*When the text box says “SUCH A FRIGHT! squelched The Homestar Runner”, there is no period followed after it.<br />
*As everybody leaves to change into their costumes, Homestar's legs are separated from his body for one frame.<br />
<br />

===Real-World References===<br />
*The Life Science textbook Homestar encounters is based on the 1999 edition of ''Life Science'' by Lucy Daniel, Edward Paul Ortleb, and Alton Biggs (ISBN 0028277775).<br />
*"A pallid bust of Pallas" refers to [[Edgar Allan Poe]]'s poem ''[[wikipedia:The Raven|The Raven]]''.<br />
*Two references are made to [[Don Bluth]] and his works:<br />
**Bubs is dressed up as Commander Borf, the antagonist from ''Space Ace'', a game similar to ''Dragon's Lair''.<br />
**In response, when Homestar Runner turns into a skeleton and collapses during the costume discussion at the end, it is a reference to one of the ways Dirk the Daring dies in the original ''Dragon's Lair''. Homestar was dressed as Dirk the Daring in [[Mr. Poofers Must Die]], doing the same gag.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Mode 7|Mode 7]] was a processing technique that allowed the Super [[Nintendo]] Entertainment System to scale and rotate visual elements. Although it wasn't used to animate Burt the Bashful in ''[[Wikipedia:Yoshi's Island|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (The Super FX-2 chip was used instead), his animations did distort his sprite in a Mode 7-esque manner.<br />
*Strong Mad yells the name of [[Wikipedia:Syd Barrett|Syd Barrett]], a founding member of Pink Floyd who was ousted from the band in 1968.<br />
**Strong Mad yelling "WIZARD OF OZ!", as well as Strong Bad's response that that's the "wrong album", is a reference to the [[wikipedia:Dark Side of the Rainbow|Dark Side of the Rainbow]] theory, which states that the Pink Floyd album [[wikipedia:The Dark Side of the Moon|The Dark Side of the Moon]] can be synchronized to ''[[The Wizard of Oz]]''.<br />
*Homsar's line in his Easter egg is a corruption of a line from another [[Wikipedia:Schoolhouse Rock!|Schoolhouse Rock]] cartoon: "Conjunction Junction, what's your function?"<br />
*Dobby and Ron Weasley are both characters from the [[wikipedia:Harry Potter|Harry Potter]] franchise.<br />
*The "pirate guy" from [[Wikipedia:Galaxy Express 999|Galaxy Express 999]] that Strong Sad refers to could either be Emeraldes, who was the captain of the ''Queen Esmeraldes'' and aimed to switch bodies with Maetel, or Captain Harlock, who was the ruler of the Time Castle. Both are recurring characters in the works of Leiji Matsumoto. <br />
*Strong Bad references the white clamshell VHS case [[Disney]] movies came in.<br />
*The Eh!-gustus Steve Easter egg, with its use of Sweet Cuppin Cakes' color palette and tile floor, slow synth pop music, Roman-style statues, and cyan- and magenta-outlined palm tree, references the [[Wikipedia:Vaporwave|Vaporwave]] aesthetic.<br />
*Homestar sings part of the theme to [[Wikipedia:Moomin (1990 TV series)|the 1990 Moomin TV anime series]] (on which the design of his costume is largely based).<br />
*Coach Z's costume banter references DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's "Parents Just Don't Understand", specifically the lyrics "But if you don't want to I can live with that but/You gotta put back the double-knit reversible slacks" and "There's no need to argue, parents just don't understand".<br />

==Transcript==<br />
''{Spooky sounds play against a darkened wall. Homestar Runner's shadow appears from the left, and Homestar himself then appears suddenly.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wah! You scared me! So, here's the deal: I'm lost inside this haunted mansion, and I need your help to find my costume and get outta here! So, what should we do first?<br />
<br />
''{The screen displays: 'WHAT SHOULD WE DO?? 1. PET A GOAT 2. MAKE A STEW 3. "I'M SELLING THESE FINE LEATHER JACKETS..."' A "COSTUME LOCATOR" is in the lower left and a "HEALTH & BEAUTY" indicator, showing 100%, is in the lower right. Then, after a moment, the lights suddenly come on and the camera pans back, revealing the interior of Homestar's house, including pictures of Homestar's past costumes framed on the wall. Marzipan walks up with a wig and a pile of clothes. A sheet of paper can be seen in front of Homestar, with doodles all over it and several markers scattered around it.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' What up, Homestar? Here's your costume!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{taking the costume}'' Oh, thanks. You win!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{noticing the paper and markers}'' Homestar Michael Runner<!-- There is no consensus to change this to "Winner" so leave it be for the time being; see Talk page -->, what did you do&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{A closeup of the paper is shown. It reads:}''<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion<br/>1. *****-Water<br/>2. Powdered *********<br/>3. Essence of *********<br/>Stir ingredients with a ***********<br/>Say this magic incantation:<br/>*****************************</div><br />
<br />
''{Drawings of [[bugs]] and [[ducks]] obscure all of the important parts, asterisked. Also, Homestar has written "MEAN SEAN", "QUACK TIME", and "COOL DUCK" on various parts of the paper.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' &mdash;to my Halloween Potion recipe?<br />
<br />
''{Homestar and Marzipan appear again.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah. ''{turns away from Marzipan}'' Marzipaaan! Can I draw ducks and bugs all over the recipe for your Halloween Potion?<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' No way, Jorge. You're gonna figure out what those ingredients were and bring 'em back here before midnight. Now march your skinny white butt into those spooky woods, mister!<br />
<br />
''{Music starts.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{humbly}'' Yes, Mom-zipan.<br />
<br />
''{The screen displays "HALLOWEEN POTION-MA-JIG" and "A MAKE-YOUR-OWN-DECISION-VENTURE", followed by the usual credits (with the notable addition of "[[Jonathan Howe|Jonathan]] programs"), over the drawings of bugs and ducks. Then, cut to the spooky woods, where Homestar is now in costume.}''<br />
<br />
===The Water===<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right! These spooky woods gotta be chock full of spooky ingredients. Let's see, the first one is ''{pulls out the paper}'' "Something Water." Hmmmmmmmm...<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{from a distance}'' Really?<br />
<br />
''{cut to Coach Z and Pom Pom}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Then how come they'll be all nice to ya and act like they like ya to your face?<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Guess I have a lot to learn about mailmen.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks up}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, what are you guys doin' out here? Did you ruin somebody's magic potion too?<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Uh... nope. Unless Coach Z's life is a magic potion.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool, cool, depressing, cool. So, um...<br />
<br />
''{A box shows up reading "CHOICE TIME!!!" and the three choices:}''<br />
<br />
====1. Do either of you have any...====<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do either of you have any cash on you? ''{imitating a shady drifter}'' I'm trying to get a me a sandwich or somethin'. Uh, my car broke down and I'm out of gas.<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, sorry, man. All I gots is this bottle of, uh, ghost water?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's perfect! I was planning on blowin' that money on ghost water anyways.<br />
<br />
''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items obtained. The first blank is filled with "<u>Ghost</u> Water". A victory sound plays.}''<br />
<br />
====2. I need something that would be...====<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I need something that would be good in a Halloween Potion.<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles and pulls a severed toe out of his pocket}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom can getcha a toe. With nail polish!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um... do you have anything waterier? Or... more waterish? Or waterian?<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Please, Homestar, stop! Just take this bottle of questionable water that I keep on my person at all times for questionable reasons!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I won't question that!<br />
<br />
''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items obtained. The first blank is filled with "<u>Questionable</u> Water". A victory sound plays.}''<br />
<br />
====3. Taco-Man came by...====<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco-Man came by. He gave me some water, he gave me some water. What are you guys gonna do for me?<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Pom Pom, give the man some stank water. I will not be upstaged by Taco-Man two years in a row!<br />
<br />
''{A "scorecard" comes up with spaces for all the items obtained. The first blank is filled with "<u>Stank</u> Water". A victory sound plays.}''<br />
<br />
===The Powder===<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I gotta keep searchin'. ''{starts to walk offscreen to the right}'' Too bad I probably won't run into anybody else mysteriously hanging out in the woods.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to The King of Town and The Poopsmith. The King of Town is holding a bucket of fried chicken. Holes are dug all over the place. Homestar walks up.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! Whaddaya know! How ya diggin'?<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh! We're certainly not trying to unearth the ham sandwich that I buried here when I was nine.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good. 'Cause I found that thing like two months ago. It wasn't that good. Too much mayo.<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Too much mayo?! I ''love'' too much mayo!<br />
<br />
''{The choice dialogue comes up again.}''<br />
<br />
====1. Hey! I've got it...====<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, I've got it! I'll give you a detailed account of the consumption of your ham sammy if you give me a powdered item for this Potion-ma-jig!<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Sweet deal! ''{pulls out a small pouch}'' Take some of this powdered Thanksgiving! Now let's hear it!<br />
<br />
''{The screen starts to fade out.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, so first I washed all the dirt off with some Windex. That made it blue and soggy...<br />
<br />
''{It fades back in. The King of Town has his head lowered in emotion. His chicken bucket is empty.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and that last bite nearly made me puke it right back on my plate!<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks off and takes the powder as he goes.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, I wish you had. I surely wish you had!<br />
<br />
''{The scorecard returns. The second blank is filled with "Powdered <u>Thanksgiving</u>".}''<br />
<br />
====2. I say, is that a powdered...====<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I say, is that a powdered wig you're wearing, your Kentucky Fried-ness? 'Cause I'm in the market for some powdery dealings!<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{pulls out a pouch}'' Well, I've got my secret blend of eleven herbs and spices. But, of course, you can't have that.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aw, that's too bad. I guess I'll just go on home and&mdash; ''{starts popping in and out of the holes, snatching the powder while he hops around}'' Pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong-pyong! ''{appears from one of the holes, holding the powder}'' So long, suckers!<br />
<br />
''{Homestar drops back into the hole.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ha! That blend was just a decoy! It only has ''ten'' herbs and spices!<br />
<br />
''{The scorecard appears with "Powdered <u>Herbs & Spices</u>".}''<br />
<br />
====3. Poopsmith, do I dare ask...====<br />

===Homsar===<br />
''{This scene only happens by clicking on the upper half of The Poopsmith as Homestar walks away (an Easter egg). Homsar is floating on a balloon, as per his costume (Tingle from [[The Legend of Zelda]] series). Homestar walks up, and looks at him, annoyed.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, great, the secret guy.<br />

===The Essence===<br />
''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat are standing around a cliff, with broken TVs littering the area. Strong Bad's face is obscured by the cabinet doors on his costume. Strong Mad grunts and tosses a broken TV. Homestar walks up.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. This is a cool new background!<br />
<br />
''{The TV Strong Mad tossed falls in the background.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{opening his costume's doors}'' Yeah! We were just burying our problems here in the spooky woods when we found this creepy cliff! It's perfect for the chucking off of busted old TVs.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Essence of busted old TVs? 'Cuz I got a serious jones!<br />

<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' MY SECRET SHAME!<br />

<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===How the Ending is Chosen===<br />
* There are five endings to this toon. Which ending is seen is determined by adding together all the numbers of the choices made, dividing by five, taking the remainder (numbered zero to four), and adding one. Thus, if 2, 1, 3, 3, and 2 are chosen, the equation would come out as 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 11 / 5 = 2, remainder 1. Add 1 to that, and the cartoon plays ending 2. (See the talk page for the [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}#The Code|source code]].)<br />
*If the remainder is:<br />
:*0, then ending 1 appears: Tofu Homestar. There are 53 combinations that yield this result.<br />
::When the sum of the choices are 5, 10, or 15 this ending is displayed.<br />
:*1, then ending 2 appears: Cyclops Homestar. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.<br />
::When the sum of the choices are 6 or 11 this ending is displayed.<br />
:*2, then ending 3 appears: French Homestar. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.<br />
::When the sum of the choices are 7 or 12 this ending is displayed.<br />
:*3, then ending 4 appears: Freaky Marzipan. There are 45 combinations that yield this result.<br />
::When the sum of the choices are 8 or 13 this ending is displayed.<br />
:*4, then ending 5 appears: The Goblin. There are 50 combinations that yield this result.<br />
::When the sum of the choices are 9 or 14 this ending is displayed.<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*Marzipan's line, "No way, Jorge", is a permutation of the more common "No way, José"; possibly a play on the [[Spanish]] variant of the name "George", even though "José" translates to "Joseph".<br />
*Putting someone's hand in warm water while they sleep is a common prank believed to make the victim [[Wetting the Bed|involuntarily urinate]].<br />
*[http://lysy2.archives.nd.edu/cgi-bin/words.exe?Loquentia Loquentia] is a Latin word whose root means to speak or to utter.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:pashmina|Pashmina]] is the fleece of feral Himalayan goats that is used to make shawls that are referred to by the same name. It is similar to cashmere and was quite popular in the mid 1990s.<br />
*To be [[Wikipedia:Precipitous|precipitous]] is to bring about especially abruptly, or to be very steep.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Denouement|Denouement]] is the resolution part of a story which comes after its climax.<br />

===Trivia===<br />
*The ducks and bugs Homestar drew on the potion are:<br />

*The original potion read:<br />
<div style="text-align:center; padding:8px; border: 1pt solid #000; width:300px">Halloween Potion<br/>1. Ghost-Water<br/>2. Powdered Pigs' Feet<br/>3. Essence of Nightroot<br/>Stir ingredients with a wooden spoon<br/>Say this magic incantation:<br/><br />
"Sip it down and swish it 'round"</div><br />
*This toon was released at about 1:30 a.m. on November 1, Atlanta time. All day the previous day, the [[Main Page Messages|button on the main page]] read, ''"workin' as fast as we can!"''. When the toon was finally released, the button read: ''"it's still halloween!"'' (moving one's pointer over the button revealed: ''"in certain timezones!"''). Later in the day, the button was changed to simply read: ''"halloween toon!"''<br />
*The shirt Coach Z is wearing is from ''[[Wikipedia:The Cosby Show|The Cosby Show]]'''s first-season episode "[http://www.tv.com/the-cosby-show/a-shirt-story/episode/6802/summary.html A Shirt Story]", in which Denise tries to hand-make Theo a designer shirt and butchers it in the process. The fictitious brand of shirt was called a "Gordon Gartrelle", and the original cost Theo $95. The "Jammin' on the one" line is a reference to the episode "[http://www.tv.com/a-touch-of-wonder/episode/6836/summary.html|A Touch Of Wonder]", in which guest star [[Wikipedia:Stevie Wonder|Stevie Wonder]] sampled the voices of the Huxtable family and made them into a song.<br />
:*[[thorax:mp3s/Jammin_On_the_1.mp3|Jammin' on the 1]] is also one of the mp3s available on [[Thorax Corporation]]'s website.<br />
*The kick performed by Homestar while singing appears to be a side thrust kick, a karate kick which involves thrusting the foot out from the side to hit with the heel.<br />
*The total number of possible sequences of potion ingredients is 3<sup>5</sup>, or 243.<br />
*According to the [[Quote of the Week#2005-11-03|Quote of the Week]] on November 3, Bubs was originally going to give out an ''[[IMDb:tt0114781|Under Siege 2]]'' collector's spoon instead of the ''Jurassic Park III'' collector's spoon.<br />
* The Flash file appears to have been updated 12 hours after the toon was originally released. The update expanded the Tofu Homestar scene, which originally ended immediately after Marzipan's line "You're back to your old self again!", before Tofu Homestar's head fell into the cauldron, but with the animation suggesting it was about to do so. The change was likely made to remove any suggestion that Homestar had "died" by being transformed into an inanimate object. The update also added an extra "THE END" scene and an Easter egg (The Cheat). It is possible that these elements were originally planned for the original release but left out due to time constraints.<br />
*The [[YouTube]] description for this toon is "Homestar has to find all of Marzipan's potion ingredients."<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*The pictures above Homestar's cabinet are changed for the holiday. They ordinarily show his changing appearance over the years. This time, they depict all his past [[Halloween costumes]] from 2000 to the present.<br />
*This is the first time Homestar is mentioned as having a middle name ("Michael") in a toon. (In the DVD commentary for [[time capsule]], however, Marzipan offhandedly remarked that Hal was his middle name.)<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Gossamer (Looney Tunes)|Gossamer]] actually has a redder tint than the bright orange color of Strong Mad's costume.<br />
*All of the spooky trees in the background are the same shape, just in different sizes and orientations. Also, the first two backgrounds for Pom Pom, Coach Z, the Poopsmith, and the King of Town are identical.<br />
**Homestar makes a remark about the latter instance himself, saying that the background has changed when he enters the scene with Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.<br />
*Besides stealing Homestar's [[Witches' Brew]] "line", as Homestar points out, Bubs also appropriates the "terlet" pronunciation of "toilet" that Coach Z has used in [[Halloween Fairstival]] and [[A Folky Tale]]. This spelling shows up on the scorecard as well, but Homestar still pronounces it as "toilet" when he hands it over to Marzipan. (Homestar's speech impediment causes a mispronunciation of the mispronunciation, making it correct again.)<br />
*Homestar's costume includes a pair of shoes. When Marzipan gives him his costume, however, the shoes do not appear to be included.<br />
*Strong Bad comments on Homestar's shady drifter and Reagan impressions even if those scenes weren't chosen.<br />
**Also, when Strong Bad comments on his Reagan impression, Homestar agrees that he was impersonating Ronald Reagan and not Keanu Reagan.<br />
*When not wearing a costume, Bubs has no thumbs. Mysteriously though, the thumbs on his white boxing gloves seem to move as he does.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*When Strong Bad's cabinet doors are open, they appear to be symmetrical; they shouldn't be able to fit together when closed.<br />
*When he looks directly into the camera, Strong Bad's left eye seems to jut a little into the V-shape on his mask.<br />
*Homestar's [[Chuck Taylor All-Stars|Converse All-Star Hi-Tops]] have stars on both sides of each shoe, when they should have stars [http://www.martyshoes.com/store/media/con-s049622-9160men500.jpg only on the inner side].<br />
*When The Cheat pushes the television off of the edge of the cliff, the dent on the top is towards the right. When it lands, however, the dent has switched sides.<br />
*If you choose "I'm in the mood for a..." when getting the Essence, the line disappears when it cuts back to the cliff.<br />

*A "hiccup" in the animation of the pot's bubbling occurs when the cartoon switches to one of the variables in the combination made.<br />
*Part of the ''Jurassic Park III'' spoon disappears for a frame when Homestar pulls it out during the potion scene at the end.<br />
*Unlike the other characters, Homsar shows scroll-over information during the finale Easter eggs even while the rest of the characters comment on their costumes. This is because he is a movie clip that overlays the scene.<br />
*When viewing the html file, when The Cheat is clicked on at the end, Strong Bad's head changes size and his mouth closes a bit, and everyone except for the King of Town and Strong Mad moves slightly.<br />
*When clicking on most of the characters that activate Easter eggs at the end, Marzipan's mouth changes expression unexpectedly.<br />
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.<br />
<!-- Halloween Potion-ma-jig appears to require Flash 7 or higher. Please do not add glitches relating to Flash 6 or lower. --><br />

<!-- The K'n'F'n'C is explained on the monster truck page, where the bucket of chicken originates. --><br />
*The phrase "I'm selling these fine leather jackets" is a reference to multiple PC games created by [[LucasArts]] which featured the line as a running gag. The line originated in ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure|Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' and was repeated in ''[[Wikipedia:Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis|Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis]]'', the ''[[Wikipedia:Monkey Island|Monkey Island]]'' series, ''[[Wikipedia:Sam and Max|Sam and Max]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:Full Throttle|Full Throttle]]''. The opening scene with Homestar is also a reference to [[Wikipedia:Full_motion_video|FMV]] adventure games like ''[[Wikipedia:Phantasmagoria_(computer_game)|Phantasmagoria]]'' which had recorded actors playing characters, who directly address the player.<br />
*The Cutters (on Homestar's T-shirt) is the name of the town group that was featured in the 1979 movie ''[[Wikipedia:Breaking Away|Breaking Away]]'', a movie about a group of bicyclists at [[Wikipedia:Indiana University Bloomington|Indiana University]] that race in the annual "[[Wikipedia:Little 500|Little 500]]" every spring. Homestar's character, Moocher, was a member of the group.<br />
*"Taco-Man" is the signature character of the website [http://www.ebolaworld.com Ebolaworld], which has used Homestar in cameos on more than one occasion. Perhaps the Brothers Chaps have decided to repay the favor. (As a side note, the Halloween special that Ebolaworld had planned for the same year was also a choose-your-own adventure cartoon.)<br />
*The secret blend of eleven herbs and spices is a reference to [[KFC]]'s claim that [[Wikipedia:Colonel Sanders|Colonel Sanders]]' recipe had eleven secret herbs and spices, although it curiously does not claim that this is the recipe in current use.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Windex|Windex]] is a trademark for a liquid glass and surface cleaning product made by [[Wikipedia:S. C. Johnson & Son|S. C. Johnson & Son]].<br />

A LOT!" is a reference to the bank teller in ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' for the [[Nintendo#Nintendo 64|Nintendo 64]], who said it if you deposited more than fifty rupees all at once. This was the first game that Tingle appeared in, so it's quite appropriate.<br />
*Homsar's line ("location, location, location") refers to the three most important things in [[Wikipedia:real estate|real estate]]. His costume character, Tingle, serves to help Link navigate by selling him maps in ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.<br />
*Rose petal essence was an ingredient for the spell to turn into an eagle or fly in [[Sierra]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:King's Quest III|King's Quest III]]''. Especially given this allusion, the whole premise of the cartoon is likely based on the formulaic combination of ingredients, stirring, and magic words required to perform the [http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/the_fairway/game_pages/kings_quest_3.html spells] in King's Quest III.<br />
*[http://www.hovan.com Hovan] is a restaurant chain in [[Florida]] and [[Georgia]], located in mall food courts, that sell [[Wikipedia:Gyro|gyro-style]] wraps.<br />

*Bubs's recommendation of "eye of newt" and "toe of frog" originated as magical ingredients in [http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Tragedy_of_Macbeth/Act_IV Act IV, Scene 1, line 16] of [[Shakespeare]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:Macbeth|Macbeth]]'', one of the most famous and influential depictions of witches in Western culture.<br />
*Bubs's quote "Baby, you've got a [[witches' brew]] goin'" is a reference to the television show ''[[Wikipedia:Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'', where [[Wikipedia:Carl Weathers|Carl Weathers]], the actor who played [[Wikipedia:Apollo Creed|Apollo Creed]], portrays himself as extremely cheap, and sometimes comments that if certain leftover foods are combined, "Baby, you've got a stew goin'."<br />
* Bubs's comment about "Stick and move! Stick and move!" is a reference to the advice Duke gave Apollo Creed in [[IMDb:0075148|the original Rocky movie]]. [http://www.filmsite.org/rock5.html]<br />
*''[[wikipedia:Jurassic Park III|Jurassic Park III]]'' is a movie in the ''[[Jurassic Park]]'' series.<br />
*[[wikipedia:Ronald Reagan|Ronald Reagan]] was a movie actor and the 40th [[president]] of the United States. "Nancy" refers to his widow, [[wikipedia:Nancy Reagan|Nancy Reagan]]. [[Wikipedia:Jelly beans|Jelly beans]] were famously one of Reagan's favorite foods. Reagan was also known for usually starting his statements with the word "well." He was famous for his economic policies, called "[[Wikipedia:Reaganomics|Reaganomics]]."

*Strong Sad's words as Homestar departs are taken from [[Wikipedia:Devo|Devo]]'s 1980 hit "Whip It".<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Lando Calrissian|Lando Calrissian]] is a character from the ''[[George Lucas|Star Wars]]'' films, played by [[Billy Dee Williams]]. Some people (including, apparently, Homestar) mistakenly think that Lando and Apollo Creed were played by the same actor, but Apollo Creed was played by Carl Weathers. The "Master of Disaster" is one of Apollo Creed's titles from the Rocky movies.<br />
*Walter Sobchak is a character from ''[[The Big Lebowski]]'', played by [[Wikipedia:John Goodman|John Goodman]]. The severed toe with nail polish is a plot device in this movie; Sobchak even says the line, "I can get you a toe, with nail polish," as does Coach Z on Pom Pom's behalf. "You're entering a world of pain" and "DONNY, YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!" (said on behalf of Pom Pom by Homestar and Strong Mad respectively) were also repeated sayings of Sobchak's in the movie. Also, at one point in the movie Walter inappropriately draws a gun.<br />
*[[wikipedia:Oliver Cromwell|Oliver Cromwell]] was a 17th century English military commander who became Lord Protector after leading the rebellion that resulted in the execution of Charles I.<br />
*The surprisingly high jump The Cheat makes is the effect of getting hit by a shell, invincible character, etc., in the Nintendo 64 game ''[[Wikipedia:Mario Kart 64|Mario Kart 64]]'', in which the kart landed with a similar "POOMP". Also, the respective noises The Cheat makes sound very close to what Toad says when he wins a race ("I'm the best!") as well as Toad's cries when he has been hit.<br />
*[[Wikipedia:The Golden Girls|The Golden Girls]] was a popular sitcom about four elderly women living in Miami that originally aired on NBC. Blanche, played by [[wikipedia:Rue McClanahan|Rue McClanahan]], is one of the main characters of the show. Strong Bad mentioned them in [[helium]].<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Phyllis Diller|Phyllis Diller]] is an actress and comedienne.<br />
<br />
==DVD & YouTube Version==<br />
*The "CHOICE TIME!" sound effect plays after a choice is made.<br />
*The Homsar Easter egg is enabled automatically.<br />
*Homestar doesn't say or show the stuff he gathered, or drop them in the cauldron, nor does Marzipan say the magic words.<br />
**Ironically, Homestar still says "All right, so here's what I came up with."<br />
*Homestar's transformation is now random.<br />
**However, there is an Easter egg on the Halloween menu that plays all of the transformations in order.<br />
*All of the ending Easter eggs play automatically. They are played in this order:<br />
**Bubs<br />
**Coach Z<br />
**Marzipan<br />
**Pom Pom<br />
**Homestar Runner<br />
**Strong Bad<br />
**The Cheat<br />
*The card displaying Homestar's ingredients has been revised so that it does not fully feature all of Homestar's ingredients gained. All it shows is what Homestar has gained in the scene he was in, as well as the object being displayed. The card scene is also a bit longer than usual.<br />
*When played in "Play All" or on YouTube, the ingredient choices are automatically picked, as is Homestar's transformation, which is into Cycloptic Homestar. Also, Homestar and Marzipan's dialogue about the potion ingredients (plus Homestar dropping the ingredients into the cauldron) are intact. The ingredients automatically picked are:<br />
**'''Water''': Ghost Water<br />
**'''Powder''': Powdered Thanksgiving (Goof: Choice #2 is selected, but Choice #1 plays).<br />
**'''Essence''': Essence of Putting Strong Mad's Hand in Warm Water while He's Asleep (Goof: Choice #3 is selected, but Choice #2 plays).<br />
**'''Stirring Utensil''': Terlet Brush<br />
**'''Magic Words''': "Betta Ax Somebod-ay" (Goof: The collection card depicts "Loquentia, Imbruglia, Precitpitous, Saraleecheesecake, Denouement").<br />
*The option of seeing who is dressed up as who at the very end is no longer available.<br />
*Instead of cutting to the group shot after the end title, it fades through black to the shot.<br />
*The [[YouTube]] description for this toon is "Homestar has to find all of Marzipan's potion ingredients."<br />

== Transcript ==<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing, types "run Strongbad's__email"}'' Checkin' emails is like the best thing I do.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tandy email">Dear Strong Bad..,<br /><br />
Do you like making out? Because my boyfriend<br /><br />
won't... mostly because he's jealous of you.<br /><br />
I've tried the whole Peter Frampton thang,<br /><br />
but nothing seems to work out. Please help<br /><br />
me Strong Bad...<br /><br />
Kissless in Santa Rosa</blockquote><br />
''{Pronounces "thang" as "thing"}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears screen}'' Well, Kissless, you're going about it all wrong. Frampton's not going to loosen anybody's lips. If you really want to make out with this guy, you need to go straight to the master of make out rock himself... ME! ''{clears screen}'' So here's what you do: ''{says but doesn't type}'' You ''{types}'' wait til he comes home, then light a few candles and maybe have a glass of wine. And then put on my hit single "You're Really Ugly (But There's Nobody Cute Around)." ''{stops typing}'' I'll tell you what, ''{resumes}'' he'll be all over you like the King of Town on a Chinese buffet, man. ''{stops typing}'' All right, so until next time send me more questions. SEND ME MORE QUESTIONS!!! <br />
<br />
''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''<br />

==Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*This is the first sbemail to have an unusual [[Strong Bad Email Page Titles|page title]].<br />

*This is the first email to mention [[alcohol]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Frampton's Camel was the name of [[Peter Frampton]]'s backing band for several years, and the name of his 1973 [http://www.frampton.com/camel.html album].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Strong Bad will go on to mention [[Making Out|making out]] many more times.<br />
*After the email, Strong Bad says "Send me more questions, SEND ME MORE QUESTIONS!" Later, in the [[Mr. Shmallow (toon)|Mr. Shmallow]] cartoon, [[Mr. Shmallow]] will say, in a similar tone, "Look lively, LOOK LIVELY!"<br />
