''{The following title screen appears}''

<blockquote>Telltale Games Presents</blockquote>
''{"Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People" logo on a red background flashes on the screen, with a wailing electric guitar heard in the background.}''

''{cut to Strong Bad standing in front of several computer monitors with the same logo displayed on them}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, everybody. My name is Strong Bad from Telltale Games, and I'm the lead designer and girlfriend have-er for ''{cut to side shot of Strong Bad in black & white}'' Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. Now the clip ''{cut back to forward color shot}'' you are about to see is just after I upgraded my shark gun to shoot live sharks instead of ''{black & white}'' just floppy dead formaldehyde sharks. ''{color}'' No, these are real snappin' hungry live sharks. Let's all watch.

''{SBCG4AP logo flashes on the screen}''

''{cut to a scene in The Old Club from [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]]. Dangeresque and Renaldo are standing next to Perducci's table.}''

'''DANGERESQUE:''' ''{walking towards the camera}'' Bust out your breaking and entering shoes, Renaldo. We've got a paycheck to rescue! ''{Dangeresque runs into the camera, and then it falls over}''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad in the studio, looking off to the side}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh... ''{chuckles}'' That was, uh, clearly the wrong clip. ''{close up; Strong Bad shakes his head}'' Oh, those developer guys. They probably slipped it in there like a practicals joke. Anyway, ''{black & white}'' let's move on to the good stuff. The next bit of game play footage is when ''{color}'' my jet pack craps out on me in mid-air and I have to avoid the orchestra ''{black & white}'' of squids and land safely ''{color}'' on Pom Pom's belly. Let's watch.

''{SBCG4AP logo flashes on the screen}''

''{Cut to a scene from The Field, where he lifts a cardboard box.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Nothing.

''{Cut back to Strong Bad in the studio}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{annoyed}'' What the crap!? All right, nevermind. ''{closeup}'' I'm moving onto the big guns. This is a clip from the finale. ''{black & white}'' I only got two words for you: ''{color; Strong Bad makes quote marks with his hands}'' Robot pants.

''{SBCG4AP logo flashes on the screen}''

''{Cut to a scene at the Race Track from [[Homestar Ruiner]]. Strong Bad tries to grab the [[Heavy Lourde]] while on the pogo stick, but he's then pulled down}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oof!

''{Cut to the scene in [[Baddest of the Bands|Baddest Of The Bands]], when Strong Sad shocks Strong Bad with the taser.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' WAAGH!

''{Cut to a scene from [[Strong Badia the Free|Strong Badia The Free]], when The Poopsmith, dressed as a Poopertrooper, leaps through Strong Bad's window and clobbers him.}''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad in the studio}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' RAAAH! That's it!

<span style="text-transform:uppercase;font-size:75%"> The making of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People </span></blockquote>
'''STRONG BAD:''' Show's over.

<span style="font-size:200%;"> The Last Straw </span></blockquote>
'''STRONG BAD:''' Stupid game play footage... See what Videlectrix has to say about this. ''{Sound of a phone being dialed}''

''{Cut to a behind shot of Strong Bad sitting at his desk. The phone continues to ring.}''

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' ''{a crash is heard; yelling}'' I'll deal with you later!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, hello?

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' Hello, Vide-ma-lectrix.

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's the deal? ''{Strong Bad leaps out of his chair, and the camera follows him walking among cubicles}'' I thought everything was taken care of.

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' Here, why don't we fax you over the gameplay we were able to salvage.

'''STRONG BAD:''' You're going to fax me some gameplay footage?

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' Sure, we do it all the time!

''{Strong Bad arrives at a fax machine.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, fine, fax it over. Maybe I can use that to show some good gameplay footage.

''{Close up of the incoming fax; a roughly drawn picture of Strong Bad on a grid with question marks above his head, titled "Untitled Strong Bad Project".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What is this crap? ''{cut back to wider shot}''

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' Well, I'm sorry Strong Bad, but I can't help ya'.

''{Close up of the fax again. Another sheet is coming in showing Strong Bad, head down, standing next to Strong Sad wearing a princess hat and hearts above his head}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Remember those disks I sent you? Do you have any idea what I went through to get those?

''{Cut back to a wider shot.}''

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' Well, there wasn't a whole lot of gameplay on those disks.

'''STRONG BAD:''' What do you mean? I sent you like, 25 of those things.

''{A crash and a woman's scream are heard over the phone.}''

'''VIDELECTRIX GUY:''' YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH— ''{phone call disconnects; a reorder tone can be heard}''

''{Strong Bad puts the phone away and looks towards the camera}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, it looks like I'm gonna have to tear Telltale a new one. Verbally, of course.

''{Cut to an exterior shot of the Telltale offices. Camera pans slightly and zooms in on a window.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{muffled, yelling}'' Cool game! Strong Bad's cool game! Not—

''{Cut to a conference room, with many Telltale employees standing or sitting nearby.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "box-look-under" game! Or ''{employee moves out of the way to reveal Strong Bad standing on the conference table}'' "green bushes" game! What is that mess!?

''{Cut to more direct shot of Strong Bad on the table}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Walking to one developer}'' You told me you could do a blade! A blade! ''{walks away}'' I thought a dialog tree was the name of some cool alien sentient plant thing! ''{walks over to another developer}'' And you! Ugly glasses Telltale! ''{close up of Kevin Bruner}'' You said "point and click" meant pointing a gun ''{wider shot}'' and clicking the trigger! ''{walks away}'' And thank goodness we didn't decide to name it "Strong Bad's Cool Game ''Developed By'' Attractive People". You guys are the ugliest scrubs I've ever seen! ''{Strong Bad screams incoherently and flails his arms}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{shakes his head, calmer}'' Okay. Calm down. Keep it together. Here's what you do to save this game from certain doom. ''{low shot of Strong Bad on the table}'' Fade in. Interior. ''{screen behind Strong Bad now reads "Quality Game"}'' Awesome video game. Day. In a world where reality and videogames have ''merged'' in a pixelated cataclysm. Can beefy, robot panted Strong Bad restore order to the galaxy, save the princess, and SLAY THE DRAGON?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{calmer again}'' That's, uh, all I got. I'm gonna go find the sandwich cart guy.

''{Strong Bad leaps off the table and walks off. The piece of paper Strong Bad is holding falls to the table, revealing to be the [[Ultimate Strong Bad|"ultimate"]] form from [[SBCG4AP Advertisement]]. A developer picks it up. Reverse shot of the developer as nods and smiles in approval.}''

'''DAN CONNORS:''' Oh yeah.

''{Cut to a montage of scenes from [[8-Bit is Enough|8-Bit Is Enough]]: Strong Bad looking through the Trog-Sword, the Trogdor arcade cabinet punching Strong Bad, Strong Bad shooting the light musket in the Computer Room}''

''{After Strong Bad shoots the musket, crossfade to Strong Bad in silhouette against a blue striped background. The montage continues as the announcer talks over: Strong Bad swinging from the vine at the Race Track, The Poopsmith as Mista Fixit holding up a sign "Let's Build Something", Marzy-Kong and Bubs on the top of Bubs' Concession Stand as she stomps the scaffolding}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' In a world where reality and videogames have merged in a pixelated cataclysm.

''{Rotating shot of Strong Bad in the Videlectrix Mainframe}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Can beefy, robot panted Strong Bad ''{words in pixelated font appear on the screen over a blue striped background}'' restore freedom to the galaxy?

''{Cut to a shot of Stinkoman, laughing}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{words appear on the screen again}'' Save the princess?

''{Cut to a closeup of Strong Sad in Peasantry}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' I'm a wizard, not a princess!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Princess!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Wizard!

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{Words on the screen again}'' Slay the dragon?

''{Cut the Trogdor video game coming alive, then to Trogdor roaring in silhouette against a flame background. Cut back to the Trogdor game in the Basement punching Strong Bad and chasing after Strong Sad.}''

''{Cut back to the striped background}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Find out in 8-Bit Is Enough.

''{Cut to a black screen. Thunder is heard. Title card reads: "See how it ends. Play Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People. All five episodes available for WiiWare and PC." Card changes to "Become cool and attractive. Telltalegames.com"}''
