Strong Bad's Long Flash Intro

{A picture of The Cheat and the word "presents" on a black background appear, followed by two green, bean-shaped eyes. Strong Bad makes drum-like sound effects in the background. The eyes fade and the letters "SB" appear. "Strong" and "Bad" are inside each letter. Strong Bad starts mimicking a guitar. The "S" and "B" turn into "The Web" in cursive. "The Web" turns into "Welcomes 'u' '2'", the letters made of only horizontal and vertical lines. The words "strong bad's cybersite" appear in red below "Welcomes 'u' '2'". A rainbow circle about 3/4 the size of the "2" comes and rolls in, stopping at the quotation mark before the "2". The word "cybersite" turns into rainbow colors. The words exit and something like a black hole appears. A hand appears to punch you, and after it does, the word "OUCH!" appears above it. The words "Get on in!" appear in a long button. The words can be clicked to get to Strong Bad's Website.}
