== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I'm making this email up! 'Cause I hate everybody! Hate everybody-body! On the Internet! The Internet!

<blockquote>
>DearSB, 
>You got all these robots round your town, but 
>you never DO anything with them. What giveth? 
> 
>Carrie 
>Larry, IA 
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad pronounces SB as "sbu" and "IA" as "Internet asker"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Hmmm. Good point, Care-lare, good point. It does seem like a bit of an oversight. ''{stops typing}'' Say, The Cheat!

''{The Cheat rushes in from the left. Strong Bad turns to greet him.}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Bring up our files on thems of the robotic persuasion.

''{The Cheat produces a file folder. Hi-hats start.}''

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

''{Cut to the folder. The first page displays a dossier for The Robot from the Original Book.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' First up, we've got the walking metal robot—

''{Cut to The Robot standing in the field, plugged into a detached wall outlet.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Robot!

''{The Robot raises its arm.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' One very specific size of nut—

''{Zoom in. A dotted line shows where a nut would fit inside The Robot's wrench hand.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —doesn't stand a chance against this guy!

''{Cut back to the folder. A page featuring the dossier for the Visor Robot appears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this guy was last seen doing a brief stint as one o' them personal assistants.

''{Cut to Homestar Runner in the kitchen. A Visor Robot-shaped AI assistant sits on the table.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say, fhqwh-bot, add "amazing thing" to my shopping list.

'''VISOR ROBOT:''' ''{visor flashes: subtitled}'' Okay. I added a lazy bean to your shopping list Homestar.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{frustrated}'' That is not what I asked for. ''{pulls up a bundle of Large Bean plushes}'' And I already own all the lazy beans!

'''VISOR ROBOT:''' ''{visor flashes: subtitled}'' Now playing "Hazy Jeans" from Larry Palaroncini's solo album.

''{Song begins to play}''

'''LARRY PALARONCINI:''' ''{singing}'' Well, I can't see a thing through these hazy jeans...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{frustrated groaning}'' Fhqwh-bot set a timer for a thousand million years!

''{Homestar walks out.}''

'''VISOR ROBOT:''' ''{visor flashes: subtitled}'' Okay. Setting a timer for aAAraRrrRRaarRaA—

''{The Visor Robot malfunctions and explodes, knocking all the lazy beans off the table and exposing its lightbulb.}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' And we can't forget my robotic— ''{a dossier for the Grape-Nuts Robot appears}'' doppelgänger! Who, in an unexpected twist, became the spokesperson for competing cereal companies.

''{Cut to the kitchen. The Grape-Nuts Robot is standing next to a box of Cheat Commandos...O's. The Cheat Commandos music plays.}''

'''GRAPE-NUTS ROBOT:''' ''{subtitled}'' Now spell. Come back, Flavor. Come back, Nutrition.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And finally, the leader of them all... that technological terror... the pinnacle of mechanical panic!

''{Cut to the file showing a dossier for Humidibot. The picture shows an imposing silhouette with a "?" sign on it. The name is unknown.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know him. You fear him.

''{Cut to the field. Humidibot rolls up.}''

'''HUMIDIBOT:''' ''{spitting water, singing}'' It's a great day for Humidibot! This is not my theme song!

''{Humidibot rolls off.}''

''{Strong Bad and The Cheat peek from behind the buses as Humidibot rolls past.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' There he goes, The Cheat. On his way to a secret robot council meeting! Time for you to go...

''{Behind the bushes, Strong Bad and The Cheat have an empty The Cheatbot shell.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' DEEP UNDERCOVER!

''{Strong Bad shoves the The Cheatbot shell on The Cheat.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{scuttling around}'' ''{beeping The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Poifect! Now follow him and learn what their robot world domination plans are so we can copy 'em!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Of course they want to take over the world! Why else would robots be having a secret council meeting?

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{stroking his chin}'' Oh. I suppose a firmware upgrade is a possibility. If it is, ''{takes out a 5.25" floppy disk}'' then take this floppy and download it.

''{Strong Bad shoves the floppy into The Cheatbot's eyehole.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{painful The Cheat noises}'' ''{blood drips}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oops. Sorry. The higher the tech, the sharper the corners. That's what Compy Corp. says, anyways.

''{Cut to a commercial for a very pointy computer monitor called the Slicey 86, paired with a keyboard with very spiky keys.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{narrating}'' Yes, the Compy Slicey 86. ''{schwing noise}'' Our sharpest PC yet!

''{A suture kit appears}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{narrating}'' Suture kit included!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now get moving, Cheatbot!

'''THE CHEATBOT:''' ''{scuttles away}'' ''{beeping The Cheat noises}''

''{A group of robots is assembled in the Field behind a sign reading Council of Grayish ROBOTS. Present are an ATM, Humidibot, The Robot, the Grape-Nuts Robot, and the full-sized Visor Robot.}''

'''VISOR ROBOT:''' ''{subtitled}'' I think spicy chili crisp is too played out.

''{The Cheatbot joins the group.}''

'''VISOR ROBOT:''' ''{subtitled}'' I'm switching back to sriracha.

'''GRAPE-NUTS ROBOT:''' ''{subtitled}'' I mixed up marsala and masala at my in-laws' house. Soooo embarrassing.

'''HUMIDIBOT:''' ''{spitting water}'' On that note, should we start back up our Béchamel versus Hollandaise debate? Cause I'm Humidibot?

''{Cut back to Strong Bad and The Cheat, without The Cheatbot shell.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{frustrated}'' They were just talking about friggin' sauce?

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' You sure it wasn't like... mind control sauce? Or melt the human stomach so we can take over the world sauce!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{shakes head}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I refuse to accept that! There's just no way robots would secretly congregate only to discuss various types of sauce! ''{hovering in mid-air}'' You must have missed something. ''{lands on the ground}'' You gotta go back.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' What do you mean you don't know any sauces? Just make something up! Find out how sauce equals world domination. Solve for sauce.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Back in the bucket!

''{Strong Bad shoves the bucket shell back on The Cheat.}''

''{Cut to Humidibot discussing sauces.}''

'''HUMIDIBOT:''' ''{spitting water, singing}'' Coodeman's Burrelli sauce.

''{The Cheatbot joins the group.}''

''{Cut to an ad for sauce.}''

'''HUMIDIBOT:''' ''{singing}'' "It's gonna fill up your belly, hoss!"

''{The belly on the chef guy on the ad inflates. A button''
