Transcript

"What in frig's crap?! How do you keep getting in here?"

{Open to a 3D shot of the Compy 386 at an angle. The text on the screen reads "baleeted". A two-liter of Mountain Dew is nearby, and slowly leaking all over the computer desk and two floppies reading "where's an egg" and "peasant's quest". Slowly pans to Homestar at the computer.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {chucks a few floppies off to one side} What is that stupid word? {starts hitting head against keyboard to punctuate his words, causing some of its keys to fly out} WHAT! IS! THAT! STUPID! WORD! WHY! WON'T YOU! TELL ME! MR.! COMPUTER! MAN!

{As he pounds his head on the keyboard, the text "whateeted", "is leted", "thateeted", "OUCH!", "my teeth!", and "my butt!!" appears on the screen. The Compy 386 then displays its Flagrant System Error screen. The camera has now panned to the door. Strong Bad walks in and views this spectacle.}

STRONG BAD: What in frig's crap?!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Uh-oh.

STRONG BAD: How do you keep getting in here?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I dunno... Picked the lock?

STRONG BAD: Whoa, touché.

{The Paper comes down with the menu options. After about 30 seconds, Strong Bad peeks under The Paper.}

STRONG BAD: Hey, what the crap are they doing out there?

{Homestar peeks under The Paper as well.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I don't see anybody. Maybe they're fixing a sandwich.

{Homestar sticks his head back behind The Paper.}

STRONG BAD: {shouting} Hey, bring us some Cold Ones when you come back in here!

{Strong Bad sticks his head back behind The Paper.}

Did you just say bonus stuff?

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG MAD: Did you just say bonus stuff?

{After a 30-second pause, the camera pulls back to reveal that Strong Bad has walked up to the machine.}

STRONG BAD: All right, choosey, time's up.

{The machine displays the TROGDOR! title screen with the accompanying music.}

STRONG BAD: I'm playing Trogdor. {plays the game} Oh yeah, don't stop a-squishing. {Trogdor gets sworded} Aw, man!

{The "IT'S OVER" screen is displayed with the accompanying music.}
