'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I'm still here, after all these years, checkin' my email. ''{high pitched}'' Checkin' my email! ''{brings up the email}''

<blockquote><div>

subject: Bed-time Stories

</div>
Hello Strong Bad,<br />
I can't seem to fall asleep latley and I was wondering,<br />
you know, if you would tell me a bedtime story.<br />
Good Night.<br />
- Justin Wagley<br />

Keller, TX
</blockquote>
''{Strong Bad pronounces "latley" as written and "Keller, TX" as "Killer taxes." He also puts special emphasis on "you know" and "Good Night."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Justin Wagley, ''{shakes head quickly}'' huh? Well, this just in, Wagley ''{shakes head again}'': I'm not your freakin' babysitter! Or your Dad. Or your dadbysitter. ''{clears screen}'' But I am The Cheat's dadbysitter and he's been having some serious problems falling asleep latley ''{pronounced as before}'' too, ever since he watched that shock-you-mentary about gingivitis.

''{Cut to The Cheat in Strong Bad's basement, with the lights off. The TV is playing, and The Cheat looks scared.}''

'''MAN ON TELEVISION:''' In the final stages, the gums took on the appearance and taste of chocolate pudding.

''{The Cheat gives a scared whine/whimper and turns pale. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' We've had to cook up such an elaborate go-to-sleep scheme for The Cheat that I believe it's officially reached rigamarole status. Anyways, it all begins by making sure The Cheat has his security, um, item. A grodalated old sponge—

''{Cut to an image of a green sponge with a badly-drawn face, covered in bandages.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —covered in Band-Aids which he affectionately refers to as "The Denzel."

''{The words "The Denzel" appear in quotes at the bottom of the screen. Cut back to the Lappy; Strong Bad continues to type.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Next, we have to prepare The Cheat's favorite bedtime snack. A tall glass of a little concoction he calls SUUDSU.

''{Cut to a blue screen with "oh my, SUUDSU" written in the background. A glass of milk appears with a chime.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Skim milk,—

''{A pile of gummy bears appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —gummy bears,—

''{The gummy bears are placed in the milk and a circle reading "Pure Genius!" appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —pure genius!

''{Cut to The King of Town's grill, without the lid. The Cheat is lying on it, carrying The Denzel and holding a glass of Suudsu.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So, once he's safely cuddled up with The Denzel and his glass of Suudsu,—

''{Strong Bad walks up onscreen}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' —it's time to begin the bedtime story proper.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{onscreen}'' Okay, The Cheat, are you ready for tonight's installment of...

''{A thought bubble appears from The Cheat, taking over the entire screen. In [[Powered by The Cheat]] style, the words "The Ch8t's Cheatventures in Moses MaloneLand" appear as spoken.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Powered by The Cheat, voiceover}'' The Cheat's Cheatventures in Moses MaloneLand! When we laugh left our heroes—

''{A picture of The Cheat and a pair of dark-skinned legs with long socks and red shoes appears. They're standing behind a podium, with Mt. Rushmore to the right.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —they had just won a debate against the minds of Mount Rushmore ''{said with the accent placed on "Mount"}'' and re-celebrating—

''{A new picture appears, with The Cheat sporting an unusual hairdo and Moses Malone's legs standing near a crude rack of items and "le new style" written in the background}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —by shopping for some new wri— wristbands.

''{The Cheat turns toward the rack and points at one of the items.}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' ''{only his legs are seen; the sock on the left moves up and down as he speaks}'' Dang, The Cheat, you ''would'' look good with a pair of monster truck tires!

''{A pair of monster truck tires suddenly appear on The Cheat.}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' Now we're talkin'! Uh-oh! Maggot Man!

''{Cut to a sunset view. A silhouette appears over the horizon; when it reaches the foreground, it is revealed to have a pink body, a pair of pincers in place of a head, seemingly boneless arms, and no hands.}''

'''MAGGOT MAN:''' ''{flailing his floppy arm}'' Hey, guys, can I come over and play video games!?

''{Shift back to Moses and The Cheat, who is holding a knife.}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' No.<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' ''{emphatic negative The Cheat noise}''

''{The camera moves back, showing that Maggot Man is very small compared to Moses, and that they're standing on a football field. Moses kicks Maggot Man away, toward the top of the screen. There is a small upside-down mushroom cloud where Maggot Man disappears from the screen. Cut to Moses and The Cheat in a trophy room with a banner that reads "HALL OF FAME."}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' Nice work, little man. What do you say you and I go play some video games?

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{affirmative The Cheat noises}''

''{The Cheat's right arm becomes humanoid and gives Moses a thumbs-up.}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' All right.

'''MOSES MALONE:''' I got first game!<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' ''{The Cheat noises that roughly match what Moses is saying}''

''{The Cheat laughs, with his arm temporarily detaching from his body. Cut to a picture of a digital wristwatch flashing a line art depiction of The Cheat in red LEDs. Above it is the banner "TIME NEXT".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Powered by The Cheat, voiceover}'' Next time on The Cheat's Cheatventures in Moses MaloneLand...

''{Cut to a room with a banner reading "ALL OF GAME," with The Cheat and Moses holding Nintendo controllers. Moses's hands are in view; he has a large gold ring on his right hand.}''

'''MOSES MALONE:''' ''The Adventures of Lolo''? You better s-s-save ''{pronounced like "have"}'' saved the receipt!

''{Cut to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' After I get sick of making up crap about The Cheat and Moses Malone, Strong Mad and I belt out his favorite lullaby.

''{Cut to the grill, where Strong Mad is revving up a chainsaw.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{attempting to yell over the chainsaw}'' BRAN MUFFIN!! COME ON YOU STUPID BRAN MUFFIN!! TRY HARDER TO BE A BRAN MUFFIN!!!

''{The Cheat sighs happily, closes his eyes, and smiles. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And when ''that'' doesn't work, we call upon our good friend, 2 or 3 roach foggers.

''{Cut back to the grill once more. Two cans of "[[Roach Killa!|ROACH KILLA!]] ([[Gavin|GAVIN]] SAFE!)" are now on the grill with The Cheat, and Strong Bad is holding a third.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sleep tight, sweet prince!

''{He tosses the third can onto the grill, slams the lid on it, and then takes cover. A small explosion is seen from inside the grill. Then, The Cheat sighs again.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{looking over his shoulder}'' How're his vitals?

''{Pan over to Strong Mad in scrubs and surgical mask, with a heart monitor. After an interval of straight line, it blips once.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' WE'VE GOT A PULSE!

''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So if we're lucky, The Cheat wakes up alive the next morning and fixes us all a big pitcher of suudsu. No foolin', man. That stuff is G-E-W-D, gewd. Hopefully you were able to at least cop a wicked contact buzz off of The Cheat's bedtime story, Wagley. Or off the fumes from those bug bombs. Either way, ''{the screen dims}'' you should be losing consciousness ''{the sound slows and descends in pitch like recorded tape being slowed to a halt}'' any second now.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

<span id="fun-facts"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline"> Fun Facts </span> ==

<span id="explanations"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline"> Explanations </span> ===

* [[Gingivitis]] is the inflammation of the gums due to improper (or lack of) cleaning of the teeth.
* "Grodalated" is a made-up word that presumably means "has become or been made [http://www.randomhouse.com/wotd/index.pperl?date=19960524 grody]".

<span id="remarks"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Remarks</span> ===

* When the Suudsu is being made, the gummy bears do not cause any liquid displacement to the milk (the milk level does not rise).
* Moses Malone's body does not appear above the "HALL OF FAME" banner or the "ALL OF GAME" banner.
* The first time Moses Malone appears, his socks have one blue and red stripe each. Every time later, his left sock has a red stripe and his right sock has a blue stripe. They are also longer.
* The smoke from the foggers does not come out of the open holes on the top of the grill.
* The fact that Good Lord Rigamarole's signature is "G. L. Rigamarole" implies that "Good" and "Lord" are his first and middle names rather than a title.
* The Cheat's favorite lullaby involves the roar of a chainsaw; however, he was terrified by the roar of [[Bubs]]' "pumpkin" in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]].

<span id="goofs"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Goofs</span> ===

* The word "consciousness" on the screen before the fadeout is misspelled as "conciousness".

<span id="inside-references"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Inside References</span> ===

* It was first revealed in [[Where's The Cheat?]] that The Cheat lives in the King of Town's grill.
* The title "The Ch8t's Cheatventures in Moses MaloneLand" is an example of [[Internet Slang|Leetspeak]].
** In addition, The Cheat is also referred to as "The Ch8t" during the email [[mile]].
* The entire "Moses MaloneLand" part (including the voices) is all done in [[Powered by The Cheat]] style.
* "Cheatventures", "Shock-you-mentary", and "Dadbysitter" are [[Portmanteaus|portmanteaus]].
* The glass of Suudsu in the Easter egg is a [[Real-Live Foods|live action drink]].

<span id="real-world-references"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline"> Real-World References </span> ===

* [[Moses Malone]] was a former [[Basketballs|basketball]] player who played in both the [[National Basketball Association|NBA]] and the [[American Basketball Association|ABA]]. He was named one of the NBA's 50 greatest players in 1997, was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2001, and died in 2015.
* The controllers that The Cheat and Moses Malone were playing with are similar to the original and most recognizable controllers that were available for the [[Nintendo]] [[Nintendo Entertainment System|Entertainment System]].
** ''[[The Adventures of Lolo|Adventures of Lolo]]'' is a puzzle game for the NES developed by [[HAL Laboratory]], in which the player had to make their way through ten floors to save the country of Eden. It received mostly positive ratings for the puzzle-style gameplay.
** ''[[The Adventures of Bayou Billy]]'' is a multi-genre action adventure game for the NES featuring a beat-'em-up style of gameplay and first person shooter sections. It was notorious for poor controls and extreme difficulty.
* "Sleep tight, sweet prince" is a reference to [[Shakespeare]]'s ''[[Hamlet]]'', Act 5, Scene 2, where Horatio says "Good night, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest" to the dying Hamlet.
* [[Gummy bear|Gummy bears]] (also known as Gold-Bears in some parts of Europe) are small, chewy, bear-shaped confections originally developed by [[Haribo]].
* The "lullaby" played on the chainsaw by Strong Mad is similar to the [[Jackyl]] song "The Lumberjack", which features a chainsaw solo played by the band's lead singer Jesse Dupree.

<span id="fast-forward"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline"> Fast Forward </span> ===

* Exactly five months later, a photograph of the glass of Suudsu appeared in the [[Sketchbook 2006|Sketchbook]].

<span id="youtube-version"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline">YouTube Version</span> ==

* The [[YouTube]] description for this email is "The Cheat's bedtime routine has officially reached rigamarole status. Watch and learn!"

'''MATT:''' Do you remember when, uh, Dad would read us ''Go Team Go'', Mike?

'''MIKE:''' Yes. There's a author, I think his name's John Tunis?

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' He wrote this series of sports books, yeah, one of which was ''Go Team Go''

'''MATT:''' I always picture— were they in Indiana? I always just placed them in Indiana—

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' —cause they played basketball.

'''MIKE:''' That's the only place where high school basketball exists, ''{Matt laughs}'' especially in the '50s. Did you ever get read bedtime stories, Ry, that you can remember?

'''RYAN:''' Uh, ''It's Raining Meatballs'', what's that one?

'''MIKE:''' I dunno.

'''RYAN:''' There's one my Dad really liked.

'''MIKE:''' Right.

'''RYAN:''' I think "It's raining Spaghetti and Meatballs" or something like that.

'''MIKE:''' Ok. ''Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing''? ''Super Fudge''?

''{all laugh}''

'''MATT:''' I remember, uh, I told my dentist about this joke, like, I had to go to the dentist just a few days, uh, after we made this.

'''MIKE:''' Uh-huh.

'''MATT:''' And they were just like— and they knew— you know, they kind of know what we do, that we make this cartoon website. And I was trying to explain, I was like "Oh yeah, we made this joke about, you know, gums getting gross." And they were just kinda like "What?" And I was like, "Well there's this little character, and—" — just like, yeah— they weren't getting it at all and I was having a terrible time explaining.

'''MIKE:''' I saw that sponge in the sink—

'''MATT:''' Just now?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Washing out some—

'''MIKE:''' Today I was washing out a cup, and it's still this gross old sponge.

'''RYAN:''' That sink is a sad sight. In the office.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that sink is in bad shape.

'''RYAN:''' The Denzel.

'''MATT:''' So, tell 'em Mike.

'''MIKE:''' Well, Suudsu, along with Bronco Trolleys, were— uhh— I dreamt about. And I just had a dream about Suudsu, and it was a good—

'''MATT:''' Gummi bears and milk, man.

'''MIKE:''' It looks delicious.

'''RYAN:''' We still have it, don't we?

'''MATT:''' Yeah it's still in there.

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Yeah, in the break room.

'''MATT:''' And all the milk is evaporated.

'''MIKE:''' Ohh... uh, more P-T-— P-B-T-C.

'''MATT:''' The ''chate''. ''{pause}'' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' I like how Moses Malone talks here, with his sock.

'''RYAN:''' Yeah.

''{pause}'' ''{all laugh}''

'''MIKE:''' Yes, The Cheat has a nice little, uh, hairdo.

''{all laugh}''

'''MATT:''' I don't like Maggot Man. ''{pause}'' Eww... The Cheat grew a human hand.

'''MIKE:''' Remember how Bayou Billy was advertised in comic books for about two years—

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' —before it finally came out?

'''MATT:''' I think— I think our friend Neil called first game, the first time one of those ads appeared.

'''MIKE:''' "I call first game!"

'''MATT:''' "I got first game!" — as soon as Bayou Billy came into, like, into anyone's consciousness, Neil called first game. ''{long pause}'' That is a horrible lullaby, you guys. You should try that on your daughter, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' What his he saying? Some— ...Try harder to be a bran muffin.

''{all laugh}''

'''MATT:''' That's a good so— The Cheat loves it. ''{pause}'' For a second there, I thought that Strong Mad w— wasn't holding that thing, and he was like, uh, Evil Dead II'ing it. ''{imitates chain saw sound}'' Chainsaw attached to his wrist.

''{pause}''

'''MIKE:''' Ohh! All— all you ladies will notice that looks like ''Grey's Anatomy''.

''{laughter}''

'''MIKE:''' Hey—

'''RYAN:''' Hot new show.

'''MIKE:''' Ladies love ''Grey's Anatomy''.

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Gewd; That's a portmanteau of "good" and "eww".

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Umm, what were those bug bombs called? I remember being proud of that, uh, that packaging on the, the can of bu— ''{email ends}'' ''{imitates slowing down as audio from email slows down}'' Uh oh... ''{unintelligible}''

<span id="fun-facts-1"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Fun Facts</span> ===

* Mike mentions [[Bronco Trolleys]].
