{Intro}

AMANDA CONGDON: Okay, so we're here, at South by Southwest and we're about to see the Homestar Runner panel.

{Cut to Matt and Mike Chapman at desk with Homestar puppet}

MATT CHAPMAN: Um...We're the guys who make homestarrunner.com.

MIKE CHAPMAN: My name's Mike Chapman.

{Roaring applause from the crowd}

{Matt is holding a puppet version of Homestar}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Um, Mike? Are you ready to roll yet?

MIKE: I'm afraid not, my friend.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Boooo.

MIKE: I dunno, I don't think it's going to happen. There's too much pressure. I've got too many files on this computer.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Too many files.

MIKE: Too many files.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: You need to defrag.

{Audience laughter}

{Cut to a video on a projector screen. Puppet Homestar is with Mike overlooking a field.}

MIKE: Pretty amazing, this Texas...

{Homestar opening and closing mouth, audience laughter}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I—I don't see much, Mike. Where's the By West?

{Audience laughter}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: The By West Show. That's what I'm in town for.

MIKE: South by Southwest?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I don't know. It's called By West. I wanna — I wanna see some cool bands.

MIKE: You're not gonna see any cool bands.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Nope?

MIKE: You're not.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Why not?

MIKE: Well...

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Did you forget to get tickets?

MIKE: We did forget to get tickets.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Crap. Oh well, By West. We'll do our best.

{Cut to Homestar Runner on top of a building overlooking a city.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Everybody's...got hair! They put products in their hair! They're all...dressed real cool! I'm not dressed cool at all! I wear the same shirt, every day! {Deep breath} Ah! Boston!

{Audience laughter}

HOMESTAR RUNNER:The annual By West Boston Clam-Bake!

{Audience laughter}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Let's do it! Let's do it up! {leaning over building ledge} GREETINGS BOSTON!!! {unintelligible} WE'RE STAYING ALIVE!!! ...This town's dead, man. {exits left off screen}

{Cut to Matt with Homestar puppet with Amanda Congdon who is comically kissing Homestar puppet}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Wow. I'm— I'm leavin' Marzipan.

{Amanda hugs Homestar puppet}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Wha-? Oh, hi! Thanks. Where's...the rest of the chicks?

AMANDA CONGDON: Um...There's some over there...We have lots of chicks fans!

OFFSCREEN MAN: This is a geek conference, man...

AMANDA CONGDON: Homestar—

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {to the offscreen man} I know.

AMANDA CONGDON: Homestar, all the chicks love you, why don't they wear your T-shirt?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I don't know! You're not wearing my T-shirt.

AMANDA CONGDON: No.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah. What's the deal??

AMANDA CONGDON: {laughing} Sorry!

{Laughter}
