STRONG BAD: This episode, Strong Bad checks his email.

dear mr bad
make a cartoon with only u in it and then 
just u do the commentary
crapful
geroge

{Strong Bad pronounces "geroge" literally, as in "gee-roje" with a hard G}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Oh, no way, Geroge {same as before}. We tried that once. Trust me, man. Bad idea.

{The scene changes and we see Strong Bad standin' there. He hears a bird singing and he looks up and around.}

STRONG BAD: {voice over} Umm... so this is another part where it's just me. And I'm kinda standing around. You know, just standing. I guess I don't do very much. No wait, I just scratched my head. Yeah, I remember that part. I totally had to scratch my head then, man. I can't remember exactly what I was looking at there. Er, I think it was like a bird, or maybe a cloud that looked like a bird. You know, like a bird cloud.

{The scene changes back to Strong Bad sitting in front of the computer.}

STRONG BAD: {typing} I dunno. That wasn't so bad actually. You know it's like, all Strong Bad, all the time! But you know what they say, "Too much of a good thing is an awesome thing. But too much of an awesome thing is...umm...really, really dumb and bad." {stops typing} All right, so until next time send me a little email and I'll give you a little crap.

{The Paper comes out and it says "Click here to e-mail strong bad - strongbad@homestarrunner.com", click on the text to email him.}

STRONG BAD: {voiceover} So, this is where I just finished checking my email and I'm just kinda sitting there. You know, I...I think I was probably staring at my computer screen. You know, watching those green lines go by. I'd be like "Whoa, check at these green lines!" You know, they just keep going. {His eyes turns to green hypnotic circles and his head sways a little.} Those things could hypnotize you, man. If you watch them long enough. {His head drops to the keyboard.} Oh, see! There I go.

Fun Facts

Trivia

DVD Version

  • The DVD version adds a hidden commentary by Strong Bad and Mike. Just change the language selection on your DVD player while watching this email.

MIKE: Oh, and now you forgot?

STRONG BAD: I for—aww, but if you hadn't brought it up, I'd have totally just said that.

MIKE: I... well...

STRONG BAD: Man.

MIKE: So is this when you got the hypno-therapy right here? 'Cause it looks like, here in a second, you start to get hypnotized.

STRONG BAD: No, but they did the same thing! They made me look at an old Apple monitor.

MIKE: Uh, yeah.

STRONG BAD: So this is me at the end of the email lookin' at the end of the email {starts speeding up} lookin' at the end of the email lookin' at the end of the email lookin' at—oh no! I've been through the time warp! Mike! It's yesterday!

MIKE: Hit the cheese.
