''{Fade from black into Strong Bad sitting in a chair with a book in his right knee, as music plays in the background. The golden text "Strong Bad Classics" fills the screen.}''

'''NARRATOR:''' And now, Strong Bad—

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{interrupting, quickly}'' —butchers the—

''{the words "butchers the" appears between "Strong Bad" and "Classics", displacing the latter two pieces of text slightly.}''

'''NARRATOR:''' —Classics.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears his throat}'' An uppity welcome, and distinguished ''hello'' to you all. Today, I will be butchering one of Strong Sad's ''{Cut to a close shot of the book on the wooden table. On the front cover, is a faint picture of the Ocelot's head}'' all-time favorites.

''{The book opens to a sad Porridge Maiden holding an Ocelot in her hands}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Ocelot and The ''Porridge Maiden''? The crap's a porridge maiden? ''{The Porridge Maiden is now holding a mirror with question marks next to her head and a speech bubble reading "what am i?!"}''

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden kneeling over her black pot on a fire, stirring it with a wooden stick with her cottage in the background. The original text reads "Once there was a Porridge Maiden who lived in a meadow."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Once, there was a Horrid Maiden ''{A puddle is added around the Porridge Maiden's legs, an eye and sharp teeth are added to her face, there are two extra arms extruding from her back, and there are horns drawn on top of her head.}'' who lived in meadowlark Lemon's duffel bag from the 70's. ''{There is a duffel bag drawn over the cottage in the background, there is a leaking tube of "sportz creamz" in the background in front of the duffel bag, and [[Meadowlark Lemon]]'s head appears in the bottom right corner, later giving a thumbs up}''

''{The page turns to a grinning Porridge Maiden with an surprised Ocelot in her hand. The original text reads "One day, she caught an ocelot for to sup."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' "i hate mondays', thought an ocelot. ''{The Ocelot is stylized to appear similar to Garfield}'' "sup. jim davis' lawyers." ''{Three men appear behind the Porridge Maiden, bearing a very similar resemblence to Lyman, with the word "LAW" written on their shirts.}''

''{The page turns to a close up of the Ocelot's face. The original text is ""Good morrow to you," said the ocelot. "You must find a husband by sunrise or doom will come to you."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Rob morrow to you," ''{A badly drawn [[Rob Morrow]] is drawn in the bottom left corner, smiling}'' said the ocelot. "You must find a husband by sunrise or doom 2 bad guys will come out of my ears! ''{A Mancubus, a Hell Knight/Baron, and a Lost Soul are drawn coming out of the Ocelot's ears}''

''{Projectiles are drawn coming from the Mancubus, and Strong Bad starts mimicking gun and explosion noises}''

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden looking at the Butcher. The original text reads "She went to see the Butcher. "Will you marry me?" she asked; "I am married to the meats," he said."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So, she went to see the Statue of Liberty's deadbeat cousin. ''{The Butcher is now holding a torch, the Statue of Liberty's crown, and the [[Tabula ansata|tabula ansata]]}'' "Will you marry me?" she asked. "I am a huddled mass," he said.

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden looking at the Smithy. The original text reads "Next, she went to see the Smithy. "Will you marry me?" she asked. "I am married to the steel," he said."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Next, she optic-blasted the Smithybot. ''{The Smithy, his table, and anvil are all stylized to look like robots. Lasers come out of the Porridge Maiden's eyes as it reflects off of the Smithybot's hammer. }'' "Voip" ''{VOiP! is drawn next to the Porridge Maiden's lasers}'' she voiped. "Save yourself little Beep Boop!" he said.

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden climbing up the top of a cottage to a chimney, where the Lum Swooper is in with a sweeper in his hand. The original text reads "Then she went to see the Lum Swooper. "Will you marry me?" she asked. "I am married to the chimneys," he said."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Then, she tucked in the Lum Swooper. ''{A bed is drawn around the Lum Swooper}'' "Will you please stop sleeping with that lamp?" ''{The sweeper has a lamp shade, lightbulb, and switch drawn onto it}'' she asked. "it's okay, I am married to it." he said.

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden looking at the Knave. The original text reads "She even went to see the Knave. "Will you marry me?" she asked. "I am married to the chicanery," he said."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' She even went to the Creepo Depot. ''{A sign is drawn on the right wall with the text "CREEPO DEPOT!" as there are lights around it that flash}'' "Will you marry me?" ''{There are lines drawn around the Porridge Maiden's creases on her clothes, making it seem that she is made of flat shapes}'' asked. low poly-count porridge maiden. ''{Strings are drawn on the Knave's head, right hand, feet, and left shoulder, all going up}'' "I am a marionette" he slimed.

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden sitting on a rock in the meadow, looking at the pink sunrise and two clouds in the distance. The original text reads "When she could not find a husband, the Porridge Maiden sat on a rock to watch the rising sun."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' When she could not find a husband, the Porridge Maiden sat by a punk rock giant ''{The sun is now stylized to look like a spiky-haired giant with a nose on the horizon and hands protruding from the horizon holding the two clouds}'' to watch ''{An electric guitar is put in the hands of the punk rock giant, with the words "fendo" written on the top}'' the wicked solos. ''{Makes electric guitar sounds as the Porridge Maiden throws a [[Corna|corna gesture]]}''

''{The page turns to the Porridge Maiden off-page with only her arm and hand to the left. The Ocelot is standing near. The original text reads "At dawn, the ocelot found her dead and mourned her passing. "Now she is married to death," said the Ocelot"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' At dawn, the ocelot found her head ''{The Porridge Maiden's smiling, decapitated head is placed onto the back of the Ocelot, along with her hood}'' and poured her a drink. ''{A glass mug is placed into the hand of the dead Porridge Maiden and an extra arm is behind the Ocelot, holding a tall glass bottle, and pouring the drink into the glass mug. A speech bubble is added for the Ocelot, reading "One for my pah' tnuh!"}'' One for my pah'tnuh!, said the Ocelot.

''{The page turns to The Porridge Maiden holding flowers, upset, while [[Grim Reaper|Death]] puts his hand on her shoulder, holding a scythe and having a red glow around him. They are in [[Hell|the underworld]], with stalagmites and stalactites with a red tint. The original text reads "In the underworld, she gave Death a thousand children and cooked his meals".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' In the underworld, ''{Eyes and two nostrils are drawn on the top of the opening, with two hands holding a mouth mirror and dental explorer.}'' she refused to be defined by her famous husband and started a successful business knitting lifehacks out of recycled blogs.

''{The page turns to a baked Ocelot on a plate in the middle of a table with an apple in its mouth and vegetables under it. There is a knife and fork, a pot, and a salt shaker near it. The original text reads "And that is why baked ocelot is always served at weddings. The End."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And that is why baked ocelot is always ''{Trisha from "Everyone is Different" is placed onto the paper, with a bridal headpiece and squiggly lines and the words "bridal hotness". Strong Bad is to the left, with his left arm around Trisha's left shoulder and a fork in his right hand. He is wearing a black and white top hat.}'' served at weddings. The End. I don't really have anything I'd change about that one. 'Cept I'd probably make it... broached ''{The word "baked" on the book is now drawn out with the word "broached" is written above it}'' ocelot.

** The Statue's deadbeat cousin declares that he is a "huddled mass", which refers to a line in "[[The New Colossus]]", a poem written by Emma Lazarus that was inscribed on a plaque that was later added to the statue.
* [[Jim Davis (cartoonist)|Jim Davis]] is the creator of the comic strip ''[[Garfield]]''.
** One of Garfield's most identifiable characteristics is his disdain for Mondays, which is also referenced.
** The lawyers resemble the former ''Garfield'' character [[List of characters in the Garfield franchise|Lyman]], who was Jon Arbuckle's roommate and the original owner of Jon's dog and Garfield's nemesis, Odie. Lyman was written out of the strip in 1983.

=== <span class="mw-headline"> Worldbuilders Version </span> ===

The Worldbuilders version differs from the [[Flash]] version in the following ways:

* The video opens with a splash screen, with the Worldbuilders logo at the top, and text below reading "Worldbuilders Literary Theatre". It fades to a similar picture with the same background with Strong Bad holding a book with the title "The Ocelot and the Porridge Maiden" badly written on the back cover, and Strong Bad badly drawn on the front cover. To the left of Strong Bad, is text reading "presents...". The scene then cuts to the Smoky Office and continues from Strong Bad clearing his throat.
* The video fades out as Strong Bad pushes Strong Sad off-screen, and fades in to a message reading "Thanks to [[The Brothers Chaps|the Chapman brothers]] and all our supporters who helped us reach our stretch goal! Check out our current fundraiser! (Link the the description)". In the corner, the scene with the punk rock giant plays silently.
* Strong Bad does not do an electric guitar impression. Instead, the Porridge Maiden throws a corna as Strong Bad talks.

* As with previous YouTube videos, [[YouTube Related Video Thumbnails|a group of nine thumbnails]] appears at the end of the cartoon, parodying YouTube's related video thumbnails. All of the thumbnails are new, and their contents are as follows:

{| class="wikitable" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" style="border-collapse:collapse"
|-
| [[Shark Tooth Bubs]] dressed as [[The Thnikkaman]] standing in front the [[Old Man|old man]] in [[Peasant's Quest]].
| A [[Powered by The Cheat]] drawing displaying the words "Powdered by The Cheat" and a bottle of "talc".
| Multiple light brown, red, blue and white diagonal stripes. Text above reads "More Cool Stripes w/ [[The Poopsmith]]."
|-
| An arrangement of multiple [[Marzipan|Marzipans]], woolen hats from [[A Death Defying Decemberween]] and [[Telebision]] remotes, reminiscent of [[Happy Dethemberween]].
| A small [[Homsar]] hovering over the [[Compé]]'s keyboard on Strong Bad's desk. Homsar is leaving a bouncy, dashed white line behind him, à la [[Where U Goin' 2?]].
| A photograph of a CRT television displaying a single green pixel with the caption "GOOD GRAPHICS". The [[Videlectrix Guys]] appear in the lower-left corner, along with the caption "Joystick Wagglin' with [[Videlectrix]]."
|-
| An extreme close-up of Strong Bad's face with the words "TOO CLOSE" written at the bottom.
| [[Puppet Homestar]] and [[Mike Chapman]] sitting in front of a curtain with a cup of [[Coffee|coffee]]. The caption reads "COFFEE TWON WITH HOMESTAR + MIKE, episode 16". The entire picture is color-negative.
| [[F-Sack]] from [[Flash is Dead!]] cast against a white background, captioned "6 hours of F-Sack".

<ul>
<li>The title contains the suffix "The Ocelot and the Porridge Maiden."</li>
<li>After the thumbnails, the Easter egg with Strong Sad plays automatically. The dialogue, however, is slightly altered.
''{cut to a video recording of Strong Sad, showing interlacing and "REC" in the corner.}''
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen, as he is holding the camera}'' Now, what was it you were saying out loud again, Strong Sad?
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{slurring}'' Oh, this is a lucrative arrangement.
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah?
'''STRONG SAD:''' Iiii'm provost. ''{points to air}'' Provost!
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh-huh?
'''STRONG SAD:''' Put more jets in my mouth.
'''STRONG BAD:''' Say again?
''{Strong Sad puts his finger in his mouth.}''
'''STRONG SAD:''' See? There's lots of room!
''{Strong Sad stretches his bottom lip down, attempting to reveal his teeth, but only black space can be seen. He begins making a gurgling moaning sound.}''
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, now this is just making me feel weird.</li></ul>
