| Strong Bad Email #56 |
|
In a rushed email, Strong Bad is asked what his current status is with the ladies.
Cast (in order of appearance): Strong Bad, Zubs and Coach B
Places: Computer Room
Computer: Compy 386
Date: Monday, December 30, 2002
Running Time: 1:14
Page Title: Compy 386!
DVD: strongbad_email.exe Disc Two
Transcript
{Start of the email at the monitor; Strong Bad is absent. The mechanical humming of the Compy 386 can be heard faintly. Footsteps can be heard, getting faster as they approach, and Strong Bad runs on-screen. He notices the computer and screeches to a halt.}
STRONG BAD: Oh! The email!
{He sits at the computer}
STRONG BAD: Uh, look guys. I don't have a lotta time. I'm kind of in the middle of something and I really can't explain. I'll try and do an email {he types strongbad_email.exe} real quick-a-like.
{email pops up}
{reading fast}
Hey man,
I was just wondering what your
current status with the ladies is?
Jordan Reynolds
New Hampshire
STRONG BAD: Uhh, let's see... {typing} Strong Bad with the ladies —Current Status: They all still want me. {stops typing} Y'know, what can I say? I'm a chick magnet. A babe conductor. A... logarithm... for the ladies.
COACH Z: {offscreen} Hey, Strong Bad!
BUBS: {offscreen} Hey, Strong Bad!
STRONG BAD: Oop, gotta go!
{He runs off. Coach Z and Bubs walk in. Their heads have been swapped, and thus are now Coach B and Zubs.} [1]
COACH B: Well... he's not here.
ZUBS: Well, you better find him quick! This crap ain't funny!
COACH B: I'd be hard-pressed to do anything quick in this train-wreck! What've ya been eatin', concrete?
{Coach B walks off.}
ZUBS: Least I don't have no clown feet! I can hardly walk in these things! {Cut to his feet. Shortly after, he walks off} Ronald McDonald, grumble-mumble...
{The Paper comes down.}
Footnote
- For the purpose of this transcript and throughout the page, it is assumed that Coach B has Coach Z's head and voice, and Zubs has Bubs's head and voice. It has never been revealed whether this is true, or if the opposite is true.
Easter Eggs
- At the end, click on the disk on the table. The Compy will create a message that says:
The Coach B/Zubs Project
Current Status: Pretty Hilarious
Fun Facts
Explanations
- A logarithm is a mathematical term that is the inverse of raising a number to a power.
Trivia
- The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "loom disk 1 of 24".
- The YouTube description for this email is "Strong Bad is apparently able to switch people's heads in this oft-forgotten sbemail."
Remarks
- A disk drive can be heard in the Easter egg, but the Compy has no disk drive to speak of.
Real-World References
- Zubs mumbles the name of Ronald McDonald, the clown mascot of the McDonald's fast-food restaurant chain, known for wearing large red clown shoes.
- This appears to be inspired by such classic Looney Tunes cartoons as Duck Amuck, which features the main characters with the wrong body parts.
YouTube Version
- The Easter egg plays automatically.
