Game Introduction

{over the course of singing the song, Strong Bad walks through the house, starting asleep on the couch in the basement, and finishing upstairs sitting in front of the Lappy in the computer room}

STRONG BAD: Rhino... Rhino Feeder...{vigorous head shaking noise} wuh oh! I was dreaming about... muffins.

STRONG BAD: {half singing} I wake up every morning feeling awesome. Even though I slept on the remote again last night— ow! {kicks The Cheat into the dryer}

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises}

STRONG BAD: Time to tear up another day, the Strong Bad freakin' way!

STRONG BAD: Like an imploding star, like a burning car, my style shines so bright!

{high fives Strong Mad}

STRONG BAD: {singing} Please, stop trying, to handle my style. 'Cause you can't, no you can't, {grunts} handle my style.

STRONG BAD: Seriously, quit trying to handle my style. Unless you're a lady... {Throws box of cereal at Strong Sad}

STRONG SAD: Oh!

STRONG BAD: ...Then you're cordially invited to have a giant slice of my styyyyyle!

{Strong Bad checks his email}

STRONG BAD: I'm gonna check my email, my email, my email! I'm gonna check my whaaaat?

>so much, why dont you just beat the snot out of him? Are
>you chicken or something?
>Confused,
>Eddie M., Frenchtown, CA.

{reads "dont" as spelled, reads confused as "Con-fussed"}

STRONG BAD: {typing} First of all, I don't think a Frenchy like yourself is in any position to be calling anyone "chicken", {with a heavy french accent} comprende-vous cordon bleu? {clears screen, talking normally} Secondly, I'm pretty sure I don't want to beat the snot out of Homestar... I mean, have you ever listened to the guy? He's obviously got a LOT of gunk up there. I could handle beating tar, the stuffing, or the {holds the 'e', but not typed} into next week out of him though. {steps back from the Lappy} I bet I could find Homestar down at Coach Z's Track, running in place or something.

Basement

Couch

STRONG BAD: Keep on keepin' my butt print warm for me couch.

Trogdor Arcade Game

STRONG BAD: I can't play Trogdor until someone gets off their pasty white butt and fixes the joystick. STRONG SAD: {muffled} I'm workin' on it! But the parts are on back order!

Television

Before Homestar's arrival STRONG BAD: Hey, it's that infomercial for the Ab-Abber 2000. It claims you can get a 9-pack in less than 40 scribbles a day!

STRONG BAD: Hey! It's the Laugh Trackalicious Adventures of Guy and Girlfriend! Oh, this is the one where Guy thinks he kills Girlfriend's hamster and tries to replace it with another hamster but the first hamster had been dead all along so Girlfriend thinks it came back to life and then the hilarity— and the humor— and the original comedy television writing!

When Homestar is present First time only STRONG BAD: Time for a few hours of retina frying entertainment! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Don't touch that dial! STRONG BAD: Why not? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Look! TELEVISION ANNOUNCER: Have you seen this, um, man? He was last seen streaking out of Coach Z's locker room, naked as the day he was born. COACH Z: {on television} It all happened so fast... one minute I was definitely not just standing around by myself, and the next thing I knew there was this high-pitched scream! KING OF TOWN: {on television} Of course I screamed. Who wouldn't scream at the sight of all that pruny, shower-fresh flesh barreling right towards your moustache! TELEVISION ANNOUNCER: The King of Town has issued an all-points bulletin for the mysterious nudenik, and sealed the negatives of this incriminating security photo in his castle's Hall of Records for further study. KING OF TOWN: Studying is fun! TELEVISION ANNOUNCER: In the meantime— {Homestar and Strong Bad talk over him} if you happen to come across this lewd, nude dude, do not, we repeat, do not approach him, as he may be armed and dangerous. Okay. Maybe not armed. HOMESTAR RUNNER: See? I'll never be able to show my face in public as long as I've got a criminal record at the King of Town's Hall of Records! STRONG BAD: Actually, I don't think it's your face you should be worried about showing. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, you mean my feet? Yeah, they are pretty big.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Don't change the channel! I'm tracking the progress of my very own personal pan-nationwide manhunt! STRONG BAD: More like nationwide GET OFF MY COUCH! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, no.

After Homestar has left the couch, but still inhabits the house elsewhere STRONG BAD: There's nothing I'd rather do than max and relax in front of the TV... but I'll never be able to enjoy it as long as Homestar's still moping around my house like a wussier version of Strong Sad. STRONG SAD: {from upstairs} I heard that!

During Party STRONG BAD: I'll never be able to get back to watching scrambled premium cable until I get these annoying party people out of here.

Homestar Runner

Criminal Record → Homestar

STRONG BAD: Hey, take a look at this! HOMESTAR RUNNER: What is it? STRONG BAD: It's the one and only copy of your criminal record, stolen by awesome Strong Bad out from under the King of Town's butter stained nose. HOMESTAR RUNNER: I don't believe it! Awesome Strong Bad could never pull that off! STRONG BAD: If you don't believe me, then believe the all-knowing wisdom of local television news! {turns to watch the television} NEWS ANCHOR: —cats wearing clown costumes really do make a difference. Thanks for that important story, Mindi. In other news, citizens were shocked today when the King of Town's Hall of Records was brazenly burglarized by an unknown masked assailant. THE KING OF TOWN: {on television} He took everything! Everything! Cleaned the place out! NEWS ANCHOR: Without the criminal records, the King admits that he has no institutional memory of any crimes being committed... anywhere... ever. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yay! I'm free to show my face in in public again! And maybe the rest of me too! STRONG BAD: You nasty. {Homestar leaves} Finally, the TV belongs to its one true master again!

Homestar → Television

First time only STRONG BAD: Can we watch something a little less... yokel than local news? HOMESTAR RUNNER: No way, man! I need to keep up-to-date on all the details of my scandalous downfall and nationwide manhunt! STRONG BAD: Dude, it's a public nudity charge. I've done more scandalous things while buying a pair of brown and tan socks. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Look, there I am again! Oh the shame!

STRONG BAD: So, just to be sure, there's no way I'm gonna talk you off of this couch, right? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Not until I'm no longer a wanted criminal.

STRONG BAD: {Strong Bad turns the lights off, and then back on} Intriguing.

STRONG BAD: {Strong Bad turns the lights off, and then back on} Not so intriguing.

Rave Switch

STRONG BAD: {first time only} Check this out! {Camera zooms in and out, light effects and sound clip from techno play} STRONG BAD: Ahhh, I sometimes get tired of that.

{Strong Bad plays another techno rave} STRONG BAD: Yeah, I'm definitely tired of that.

Homestar Runner

In any of the three rooms Homestar inhabits

Homestar → Homestar

STRONG BAD: All right, Homestar, it's time for you to go. There's no room in the House of Strong for crybabies. HOMESTAR RUNNER: What about Strong Sad? STRONG SAD: I'm not a crybaby, I'm tormented! STRONG BAD: Okay, there's room for one crybaby in the House of Strong, and that position's been filled. Out you go! HOMESTAR RUNNER: No way. I'm not leaving until my life is back to the wonderful way it used to be.

STRONG BAD: Guess what, Homestar! Everything's all better again! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Prove it.

When all Homestars have left the building

STRONG BAD: Hey, do you hear that? That, my hot ladies, was the sweet sound of Homestar's tuchus being surgically removed from my house. Ya hear that, house? It's just you and me. {clock wipe to computer room, Strong Bad is sitting at the Lappy} STRONG BAD: So there you have it, Monsieur Manure: the video ga— PARTY GOERS: Surprise! STRONG BAD: What the—? {cut to downstairs, pan across to kitchen showing Marzipan, Homestar, Coach Z, Bubs and The King of Town} PARTY GOERS: Whoopie! {singing, out of sync and tune with each other} For he's a jolly good fellow, which nobody can deny! STRONG BAD: {coming downstairs} I'll deny you oxygen to your lungs if you don't get outta here!

When Strong Bad walks near

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh the pain...

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Does despair have one G, or two?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh hi Strong Bad... {sighs}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {sighs}

Kitchen

Banana Peel

When the King of Town is eating {Strong Bad attempts to pick up the peel, but the King of Town blocks him} STRONG BAD: Hey! THE KING OF TOWN: {burp} STRONG BAD: Nevermind.

During the Conga line STRONG BAD: Sweet, a banana peel! The King of Town must have been pretty desperate to eat something as healthy as this.

Bubs

Bubs → Bubs

STRONG BAD: Wait a minute, if you're here, who's minding the concession stand? BUBS: Oh, I got that covered. {cut to the Concession Stand. The Poopsmith is behind the counter.} THE POOPSMITH: {holds up a sign readingHalf off all Whatsit!} {Strong Bad shakes his head}

Bubs → Music

While The Best of Brit-Pout, the Nineties Years is playing STRONG BAD: Why aren't you out there mope-dancing? BUBS: I'm just too naturally Bubsly to dance like that.

While Coach Z's demo is playing STRONG BAD: Hey— BUBS: Can't talk now, everybaddy! I'm doin' the broken robot! {robotically} Malfunction! Vort! Vort! Vort! Vort!

While Jane's Austentacious Chamber Music Jam is playing STRONG BAD: Why aren't you out there cutting a 19th century rug? BUBS: I would, but Coach Z's the only one who's asked me to dance, and he's a big green job! COACH Z: {Calling out to Bubs} Yoo-hoo!

Bubs → Party

STRONG BAD: What are you doing here, Bubs? You hate Marzipan's parties! BUBS: Yeah, but I love the stuff in your fridge!

STRONG BAD: Bubs, I love ya like a distant cousin-in-law, but you've got to get out of here! BUBS: No way, man! I'm just gettin' warmed up!

STRONG BAD: Get out! BUBS: Mmmmm... nope.

Chef's Hat

STRONG BAD: Now that I've gotten rid of Homestar, I can finally put this awesome chef's hat in my photo booth wardrobe.

Dead Plant

First time only STRONG BAD: This is Charlemagne, Strong Sad's plant. It used to be healthy, but after Strong Sad started talking to it, it decided to kill itself! STRONG SAD: That's not true! STRONG BAD: That's not what the note said!

STRONG BAD: It's Strong Sad's suicidal plant.

Dishes

STRONG BAD: I'll do the dishes once our skeet shooty flinger gets fixed.

Fridge

Before Party STRONG BAD: Hit me witcha best food shot, fridge o' mine! {opens fridge} The only thing in here is some paleolithic Fluffy Puff Mayonnaise. Looks like someFATbody needs to go to the store. STRONG SAD: It was my turn last time!

STRONG BAD: Eww, that mayonnaise is so ancient, its expiration date is chiseled on a stone tablet.

Only while Homestar is in the kitchen STRONG BAD: What happened to all the food? HOMESTAR RUNNER: What food? The fridge was empty when I got here! STRONG BAD: Oh. Yeah.

STRONG BAD: You know, you plan on staying here, you'll have to take your turn stocking the fridge. HOMESTAR RUNNER: No problem, old chum! Whose turn is it now? STRONG SAD: Strong Bad's! STRONG BAD: You shut up!

During Party STRONG BAD: Peanut Extract Cola, Eggplant Fritters, Frozen Double Vegan Sundaes... Yeah, this is a Marziparty all right.

In Extended Play STRONG BAD: I think they say that once it turns a light grey, it's safe to eat again.

Fruit & Veggies Pizza

STRONG BAD: Normally, I'd be pouncing on these pizzas like The Cheat on a wounded Twinkie, but I draw the line at veggie pizzas. Especially veggie pizzas with olives and extra King of Town slobber.

Candy → Homestar

First time only STRONG BAD: Hey mopedog! HOMESTAR RUNNER: What? STRONG BAD: Have some candy! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ewww, packing peanuts! That sounds like something Marzipan would like! {sighs} Marzipan... STRONG BAD: Great, now he's sighing.

STRONG BAD: Sure you don't want any of this (and I use the term loosely) candy? HOMESTAR RUNNER: {sadly} No, the smell of organic packing peanuts reminds me of... Marzipan... wah-huh-hah!

Cell Phone → Homestar

Before giving the candy to Marzipan First time only STRONG BAD: I'm not giving up this object of enormous pranking potential until it's absolutely necessary.

STRONG BAD: Not yet, my pretty.

After having successfully left the Candy for Marzipan STRONG BAD: Hey Homestar! Look who found your cell phone! HOMESTAR RUNNER: What would I want with a phone? It's not like anyone will ever call me again. STRONG BAD: Anyone? Not even {dials voicemail} Marzipan? MARZIPAN: {recording on phone} Homestar? It's Marzipan. I want you to know that while I'm still a little bit sore {Homestar saddens more} that you burned down most of my backyard, I've accepted your chocolate apology, {Homestar brightens} and am prepared to be your girlfriend again. Good bye! HOMESTAR RUNNER: The candy worked? Hooray! Waitaminute... when did I give her candy? STRONG BAD: You don't remember? You sent me over to her house a few hours ago with a big box of chocolate-covered organic packing peanuts. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh yeah, that sounds like something I'd do. So what am I doing in your kitchen now with all this cooking stuff? STRONG BAD: Beats the crap outta me. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Well, I'll just go then. STRONG BAD: Yes please. {Homestar leaves} At last, the kitchen and all its four year old condiments are mine again! Bwah-hah-ha-haaa!

Homestar → Chef's Hat

First time only STRONG BAD: What's with all the cooking? HOMESTAR RUNNER: The Cheat told me that the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach, so I'm endeavoring to prepare a scrumptious confection to win back Marzipan's a-love. STRONG BAD: Sounds like a plan. How's it going? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Not so good. Marzipan's vegan and most of the food in here contains meat, milk, milky meat, or ...meaty milk? STRONG BAD: Hey, don't be dissin' my meaty milk!

STRONG BAD: Any closer to finishing off that make-up candy for Marzipan? HOMESTAR RUNNER: No. I'm starting to think it's all hopeless. STRONG BAD: Hmm, maybe Dr. Strong Bad can write a prescription to cure Homestar's broken heart. A candy prescription. For Marzipan. To eat.

Jela-ton™

STRONG BAD: Hey now, what's this? {Strong Bad takes and reads note from crate} COACH Z: {voiceover} Dear Homestar, even though you thoroughly disgraced yourself at the Race to the End of the Race, rules are rules. Please enjoy this lifetime supply of Fluffy-Puff Jela-Ton™, the official second place prize of the F-C-U-T-R-E-R. Yours truly, Coach Z. PS Never show your giant face around my track ever again! STRONG BAD: Hmm. Homestar'll probably feel a lot better if I get rid of this unpleasant reminder of his humiliating defeat. I know I'll feel a lot better — I love Jela-Ton.

The King of Town

STRONG BAD: Hey! THE KING OF TOWN: {eating noises} STRONG BAD: He's even more ravenous than usual, almost like he's spent the last few hours in a deep dark hole... or something.

STRONG BAD: Hey there! THE KING OF TOWN: {eating noises}

Microwave

STRONG BAD: I cant use the WavyMic, its door's stuck shut with nacho entrails and mangled action figures.

Outside

During the party only. The same response is received if attempting to leave the area via the map.

STRONG BAD: No way, man. I'm not going anywhere until I've kicked everyone whose name doesn't begin with "Strong" out of my house! Except The Cheat. I'm just gonna kick him.

Laundry Room

Washer and Dryer

STRONG BAD: Only Strong Sad seems to know the secrets to these mysterious mechanical devices.

Dryer only, when The Cheat is inside

STRONG BAD: How you doing in there, The Cheat? THE CHEAT: Me-mehr mimimi me mehr mer, me meh! STRONG BAD: Hey! Do you kiss your hot mom with that mouth?!?

The Cheat

STRONG BAD: Hey! Look at that thing, over there. THE CHEAT: Mehr me meh me?

STRONG BAD: Holy pixelated Trogdor, what's that? THE CHEAT: Me mihr?

STRONG BAD: Hey, turn around. THE CHEAT: Wii?

{Regardless of what is said above, Strong Bad kicks The Cheat into the dryer}

Pennants

STRONG BAD: Those are pennants from various academic institutions, unaccredited and discredited alike.

Living Room

Banana Peel → Conga Line

While the Luxa Louger is up, and the Conga line is moving towards the left {Strong Bad places the banana peel in the living room} STRONG BAD: You know, this is a really dangerous idea. Someone could trip on this poorly-placed banana peel and go flying right out the window. Yup, sure is dangeous... {each steps on the banana peel in turn, not slipping} HOMESTAR RUNNER: Whoops! MARZIPAN: Whooo! BUBS: Heeey! COACH Z: Yorp! THE KING OF TOWN: Yip! {inadvertantly flings the banana peel, which lands on Strong Bad} STRONG BAD: Arrg!

While the Conga line is to the right {Strong Bad places the banana peel in the kitchen} STRONG BAD: Oh my, I've dropped my banana peeeeel! I hope no one slips on it! {each steps on the banana peel in turn, not slipping} THE KING OF TOWN: Yip! COACH Z: Yorp! BUBS: Heeey! MARZIPAN: Whooo! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Whoops! {inadvertantly flings the banana peel, which lands on Strong Bad} STRONG BAD: Arrg!

While Luxa Lounger is down, and the Conga line is moving towards the window {Strong Bad places the banana peel in front of the window} STRONG BAD: I love the way I think! {each slips on the banana peel in turn at falls out the window} HOMESTAR RUNNER: Whoa! MARZIPAN: Wh-Whoa! BUBS: Hey— awesome! COACH Z: What the-?! I regret everything! THE KING OF TOWN: Oh, look! A banana! Peeeel! {The King makes a heavier thud than the others when they fall. All are heard groaning} {Strong Bad turns off the See Dee Spinner} STRONG BAD: That's what happens when you mess with General Flexmypecs! Tha—That's me. I sometimes call myself General William Flexmypecs. Now maybe I can get some freakin' piece of quiet around here... HOMESTAR RUNNER: {off-screen} Ow, my snot! {cut to the epilogue}

Coach Z

While The Best of Brit-Pout, the Nineties Years is playing COACH Z: This music really captures the dark empty abyss in my soul!

While Coach Z's demo is playing STRONG BAD: Hey— COACH Z: Hey, ho! One, two three. I got this party mad jumpin' cuz I'm Coach Z! STRONG BAD: Stop it. COACH Z: Stop it, drop it, don't try it till ya knock it! Coach Z shock like an electrical socket! STRONG BAD: This is getting me nowhere. COACH Z: Nowhere to run, nowhere to walk. I'm gonna draw you up a play with my locker-room chalk.

While Jane's Austentacious Chamber Music Jam is playing STRONG BAD: Why aren't you dancing? COACH Z: I would, but that rascal Bubs won't do me the honor! {Calling out to Bubs} Yoo-hoo! BUBS: {annoyed} Shut up, dummy!

Coach Z → Coach Z → Angel

STRONG BAD: You're looking particularly oblivious tonight, Coach. COACH Z: Why thank you there, Strong Bad. Nothing like a praty with lots of free roughage to perk a guy up!

STRONG BAD: I hear the Swedes were really happy with the way you ran the Race to the End of the blahblahblah COACH Z: Really? STRONG BAD: Oh yeah. I heard them on the TV saying "vimsky vomsky dimalaya libomski, bork bork bork!" ... Or something like that. COACH Z: That's just super!

Coach Z → Coach Z → Devil

STRONG BAD: I'm sorry to hear that "Homestar" took the race trophy from you. COACH Z: Oh, that's okay there, Brong Strad. You know what they say, "Records were meant to be broken into little bitty pieces." STRONG BAD: But still, to have your one shining moment of glory so unceremoniously choke-slammed into the trash can of history by such a well-known loser like Homestar? COACH Z: {Uncertain} No really, it's okay... {sighs}

STRONG BAD: Well, you may not be the Race to the End of the Race Champion any more, but you've still got your creepy health, right? COACH Z: Yeah, I guess. STRONG BAD: Hey, what's that? COACH Z: What? STRONG BAD: That giant mole on your... COACH Z: Where? Where? STRONG BAD: Oh, I'm sure it's nothing. COACH Z: {sighs}

Coach Z → Party

STRONG BAD: What do you think you're doing here? COACH Z: Thanks for throwing this praty! I love praties!

STRONG BAD: I'll put this in shouts of one syllable: GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! COACH Z: No thanks, SB. I need a hootenanny like this to pick me up after the awful way Pom Pom broke my heart with all his cheatin' and chortin' 'n' nonchalant cavortin'.

STRONG BAD: I hate you. Leave. COACH Z: Nope.

Conga Line

STRONG BAD: Hey— MARZIPAN: Whoo hoo! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Choo choo!

Marzipan & Homestar

If wearing Homestar disguise First time only STRONG BAD: Oh, hewwo, Marzipan. MARZIPAN: Hello Strong Bad. STRONG BAD: What? How did you know it was me?! MARZIPAN: Well, you nearly had me fooled, but then I remembered that the real Homestar is standing right next to me! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, he is!

STRONG BAD: Hewwo, evewybody! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Why hello, Homestar... MARZIPAN: You're not fooling anyone, Strong Bad. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, Homestar.

While The Best of Brit-Pout, the Nineties Years is playing, both speak slowly and sadly MARZIPAN: I'm too depressed to talk... HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, me too. I just can't stop gazing at my shoes. MARZIPAN: I wish my hair was black.

While Coach Z's demo is playing MARZIPAN: {crossly} Hip-hop objectifies women. HOMESTAR RUNNER: {breakdancing} Word.

While Jane's Austentacious Chamber Music Jam is playing STRONG BAD: Hey— MARZIPAN: I do believe that dreary Mr. Bad is attempting to interrupt our dance, Mr. Homestar. HOMESTAR RUNNER: I should say, what an appalling breach of common civility. MARZIPAN: I concur.

Marzipan & Homestar → Party

STRONG BAD: I thought the Homestar Victory Party supposed to be in your backyard? MARZIPAN: It was, but then some not-very-nice person torched most of my very nice decorations. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Booooo! STRONG BAD: Oh yeah. Sorry 'bout that. It was for the greater good. The greatest good, in fact. You know, mine.

STRONG BAD: What would it take to get you to move this dorkfest someplace that isn't my house? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Twenty-three dollars. MARZIPAN: We're not going anywhere until we've sufficiently busted moves and/or grooves! STRONG BAD: Hmm, that's not good. It usually takes Marzipan at least eight hours to fully bust moves, and as for Homestar... HOMESTAR RUNNER: Shake it loose, shake it tight, gimme the juice, it's Saturday night! STRONG BAD: He's busting something, all right. Or maybe he's just plain busted.

STRONG BAD: GET OUT! HOMESTAR RUNNER: No way, man. I gotta keep shakin' this here thang.

Marzipan & Homestar → Trophy

STRONG BAD: You know, Homestar didn't really win the {fanfare} Race to the End of the Race. HOMESTAR RUNNER: I didn't? STRONG BAD: No! It was me, in a totally-not-the-head-from-Marzipan's-float Homestar mask! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Bwhaa-ha-ha-ha. MARZIPAN: Hee hee hee! HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, that's rich, Strong Bad.

STRONG BAD: No, really! It was me all along! MARZIPAN: The joke's wearing a little thin, Strong Bad.

Melonade

STRONG BAD: You've gotta see it when Strong Mad shotguns one of these things. During the party STRONG BAD: Strong Mad's gonna be seriously miffed off when he finds out they've tapped his melonade keg!

See Dee Spinner

Before party {Ordinary background music playing} STRONG BAD: Let's see what's in the ol' See Dee Spinner. {changes music} Uh. It's Strong Sad's copy of The Best of Brit-Pout, the Nineties Years.

STRONG BAD: {changes music} Sounds like Coach Z has forced another one of his demos unto the world.

STRONG BAD: I've had just about enough of that. Let's see what else is in there— {changes music} Oh joy, it's that copy of Jane's Austentacious Chamber Music Jam. I'd like to use this CD as a chamber pot. STRONG MAD: MISTER DARCY!!! {sniff}

STRONG BAD: {changes music} Whoa, what's this? The Cheat's Assorted Latin Rhythms?

STRONG BAD: Enough with the music already! {changes back to original music}

During Party, when switching to The Cheat's Assorted Latin Rhythms. HOMESTAR RUNNER: All right! Conga line everybody! Adoot-doot-doot doot-doot doo-doo! {The party goers form a conga line}

Smoke Detector

STRONG BAD: That smoke detector hasn't had a battery since that day I made Strong Sad eat a 9-volt Po'Boy.

Window

First time only STRONG BAD: Sometimes I like to stand in front of my window and start flexing in case a girls' volleyball team is walking by. Second time only STRONG BAD: I know it's hard to tell from this angle, but the view from here is awesome! Each time thereafter STRONG BAD: You wouldn't think, since we're on the first floor and everything, but the drop-off from this window's like, 20 feet or something.

Luxa Lounger

STRONG BAD: {reclines chair} The Luxa Lounger is even more comfortable in its "Ridiculously Overextended" mode.

STRONG BAD: {unreclines chair} The Luxa Lounger is great lounging-based needs, but man does it take up a lot of real estate!

STRONG BAD: {reclines chair} Luxa Lounger Powers, activate!

STRONG BAD: {unreclines chair} Doodle-oot!

The loneliest goat sees the last sunset last...

Plaque (horse)

STRONG BAD: {reading plaque} "The loneliest goat sees the last sunset last" — that's a horse.

Plaque (dog)

STRONG BAD: {reading plaque} "The Cheat, watch your freakin' back, Squeaky!" Man that's one intimidating hushpuppy.

Outside

Mail Box

STRONG BAD: Checkin' my snail mail, checkin' my snail mail! Hmmm, what's this? {finds a ski cap} I'm ready for the big heist! Those smoky red laser beams don't stand a chance when I'm in this get up! STRONG BAD: Hmm, I think I'll put it in my fancy schmancy transdimensional photo-booth wardrobe. After being emptied STRONG BAD: It's empty now. On account of all the emptyin' I did earlier.

Pile of Dirt

STRONG BAD: Oh nophers, we've got gophers. STRONG SAD: {pops out of the bushes} Actually, true gopher holes are more elliptical in nature, and— STRONG BAD: Yeah, it's gophers... STRONG SAD: (Sigh)... {leaves scene}

Treasure Marker

STRONG BAD: Whoa, there's buried treasure just outside my front door! I hope it's a bubblin' crude.

Shovel → Treasure Marker

STRONG BAD: All right, front yard, hit me with your best shot! {digs} What the—!? {finds a page of the Snake Boxer 5 manual}

Strong Bad Emails

When sitting down

If Strong Bad is wearing the Homestar Runner costume STRONG BAD: {taking off Homestar suit} I don't think I should wear my Homestar costume here. It's too confining and um, clumsy.

During game intro only STRONG BAD: {singing} I'm gonna check my email, my email, my email. I'm gonna check my whaat?

STRONG BAD: I'm just over here checkin' my e-mail, and your breath smells really bad...

>beating the snot out of Homestar soon? Because I'd
>like a piece of that action. Taking the under over,
>Dan O'Meara, County Cork, Ireland.

{Strong Bad pronounces the last name "Oooh Meeeera", and says "Country Crock" instead of "County Cork"}

When checking the email a second time STRONG BAD: Oh yeah, beating the snot out of Homestar. I should probably get back to that someday.

Email 3: Got Bulk?

>subject: Got Bulk? >Dear Mr. Strang L. Bod, Are you feeling athletically
>inadequate? Is your six-pack more of a pony keg? Do your
>muscles have less definition than a first grader's dictionary?

>Awesome!!! Order a free sample of TOTAL LOAD TOTAL
>BODY FITNESS ENERGY ENHANCEMENT POWDER today,
>and begin to TOTALLY TRANSFORM your body today!!!!Limit
>one per customer.

{Strong Bad reads his misspelled name as a question. After reading the product name the first time, he looks at the camera and says "Hey, this stuff sounds great!", and stops reading the email at that point} STRONG BAD: {typing as he speaks} Dear Total Load Peoples, Although I personally am endowed with bulging biceps that have been described as "bad boys," "pipes," and "thunder bludgeons," it never hurts to get a heroically chiseled leg up on the competition. Please send me a free sample of your wonderful product immediately. Grape flavor. Yours truly, Strong Bad.

When checking the email a second time STRONG BAD: I probably can't get another free sample.

Email 4: Your Head

>subject: Your Head >Dear Mr. Bad, MY BROTHER AND I WERE WONDERING
>WHOSE HEAD IS BIGGER: yours or Homestar's?
>Quizzically, Jay and Jim Rosen, Brookyln, NY.

{Strong Bad shouts the capitalized part} STRONG BAD: Hmm, that's a good question. I should go do some field research.

STRONG BAD: Hmm.

Email 5: Hey There!

>subject: Hey There! >Hey there, every peoples! If you're one of the many bodies
>watching the Race to the End of the Race today, why not

>supplies last! Bubs Concession Stand - We've Got
>Everything, Twice!

STRONG BAD: Free, eh? I might be able to afford that...

STRONG BAD: I never should've signed up for Bubs' Free Weekly Spamvertisements. Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I never did.

Email 6: Tie-Things

>subject: Tie-Things >Hey Strtong Bad,
>What's the deal with the little tie-things on
>the backa your mask?
>-Christine B

{Strong Bad pronounces "Strtong" as "Stir-tong"} STRONG BAD: More like Christine D+, as in you get one, in life! Y'know, I was gonna ask you something similar, Christine. What's the deal with that giant nose-thing on the front of your face?!

Email 7: Total Load Confirmation

>subject: Total Load Confirmation >Dear Mr. Strang L Bod, THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN
>TOTAL LOAD TOTAL BODY ENERGY ENHANCING POWDER!!!
>A SAMPLE JAR OF TOTAL LOAD TOTAL BODY ENERGY

>WHEREHOUSE TO OUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR - BUBS C.
>STAND. You will be notified by email when your totally
>awesome jar of TOTAL LOAD TOTAL BODY ENERGY
>ENHANCING POWDER arrives. Thanks you for your interest,
>TOTAL LOAD TOTAL etc., INC.

{Strong Bad stresses the incorrectly plural word "Thanks"} STRONG BAD: Bubs distributes Total Load? Man, he carries everything!

Email 8: Total Load Arrival

>subject: Total Load Arrival >Dear Mr. Strang L. Bod, WE'RE PLEASED TO INFORM YOU
>THAT YOUR FREE SAMPLE SHIPMENT OF TOTAL LOAD
>TOTAL BODY ENERGY ENHANCING POWDER HAS ARRIVED
>FOUND ITS WAY TO OUR LOCAL DISTIRBUTOR - BUBS C.
>STAND. And may be picked up at your convenience. Thanks
>again for your interest in TOTAL LOAD, TOTAL LOAD TOTAL
>Etc., Inc.

{Strong Bad ignores the extraneous word "arrived" on the third line, as well as the misspelled word "distirbutor"; He says "etc." twice and adds "whatever" at the end of the email, but makes no further comments}

Strong Bad's Room

7 Track Player

STRONG BAD: Ah, the short lived 7 Track. Your lack of a play button was your undoing.

Drawing Table

At the start of the game First time only STRONG BAD: You know what I need to add some much-needed hooah! to my day? A little thing I like to call Teen Girl Squad! {Teen Girl Squad mini-game starts.} {After the mini-game is finished} STRONG BAD: Man, I can never get enough of that Sassy, Injury-Prone Teen Girl Squad! The only thing that could possibly make their adventures even more unfortunate would be if I used those Really Cool Teen Girl Ideas I jotted down last night after a fried chicken pizza bender— {looks around the table} STRONG BAD: Hey, what happened to all my Really Cool Teen Girl Squad Ideas?

When Homestar is blocking the table First time only STRONG BAD: Ah, Teen Girl Squad... which one of you wants to get trampled by stampeding Venus fly traps today? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Get away! I'm pouring my crushed soul and grody guts into an epic 23-part comic 23-part comic zine graphic novel about a really cool guy who wins the Race to the End of the Race! STRONG BAD: Can I see? HOMESTAR RUNNER: NO! NOT UNTIL I'M DONE! STRONG BAD: When will that be? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Not until I've emptied out the contents of my tortured brains. STRONG BAD: So, what, five seconds ago?

STRONG BAD: Done with your "fictional" story about a cool guy who wins the Race to the End of the Race yet? HOMESTAR RUNNER: NO!

While Homestar is still in the house, but not standing at the table, or during the party STRONG BAD: I probably should get back to kicking Homestar out of the house, but I just can't resist that perky Teen Girl Squad! {Teen Girl Squad mini-game starts.}

Fun Machine

STRONG BAD: Nothing like a little snake fisticuffs to clear the mind... {picks up controller} Ok, show me that logo! {singing} Do do dooo doo... DIII! Awesome, Snake Boxer 5! So much better than the unfortunate Snake Boxer 4: Lady Snake Parade. {after the mini-game} STRONG BAD: That was awesome! The only thing that could make Snake Boxer 5 even cooler is using that secret code to unlock the game's controversial hidden mode. It's a good thing I wrote down the code in the manual right— over— {looks around} Hey! who took my Snake Boxer 5 manual?

STRONG BAD: Must. Punch. Snakes. STRONG BAD: Whoa! This game is already, like, 50 times cooler than Snake Boxer 2: The Biting of Boxer Joe!

STRONG BAD: Snake Boxer 5 really put the series back on track. Especially after Snake Boxer 3: Solving Problems through Diplomacy.

Snake Boxer 5 Gameplay

Normal gameplay STRONG BAD: Eat my red blocky pom-poms!

STRONG BAD: Your Cobra Style is no match for the Way of the Drunken Five-Pixel Power Punch!

STRONG BAD: Here we go...

STRONG BAD: Where's that hot girl that tells me what round it is? Oh, yeah. I see her. I think she's that box.

STRONG BAD: Come on! That's not fair!

STRONG BAD: Total knockoutitiude!

STRONG BAD: Take that!

STRONG BAD: No way!

STRONG BAD: Oooh! Right in the face!

STRONG BAD: This game sucks!

STRONG BAD: I did not just get beat by a stupid snake... unless it was on of those two-headed freak show snakes. Then it's an honor.

STRONG BAD: Ka-pow!

STRONG BAD: Body Punch!

STRONG BAD: Taste my glove, snakey!

STRONG BAD: Everybody knows the game cheats.

STRONG BAD: Oh man....

STRONG BAD: You're going down, snakes!

STRONG BAD: No one boxes snakes better than me!

STRONG BAD: Upper blow!

STRONG BAD: Yeah, I'm pretty much the coolest.

STRONG BAD: Man, that was hard!

STRONG BAD: Quit biting me, snake!

STRONG BAD: This screen isn't big enough for the two of us.

STRONG BAD: Ring the bell! Ring the Bell!

STRONG BAD: What? I did not just get snake boxed!

STRONG BAD: What? Oh, that so cheated!

STRONG BAD: ...And Strong Bad steps into the ring! {makes crowd noises}

STRONG BAD: And the snake goes down!

STRONG BAD: Stupid Snake!

STRONG BAD: I've been bited!

STRONG BAD: Oh, my hand slipped off the controller!

STRONG BAD: You only got me cause my eyebrows were blocking my view!

STRONG BAD: DING DING!

STRONG BAD: Snakes, gert ready for the pummeling!

While using the secret code STRONG BAD: That is some sweet low-res fire breath!

STRONG BAD: Catch fire, snake! {makes fwoosh noise}

STRONG BAD: BURNINATE!

STRONG BAD: Whoa, snake fire! Awesome!

STRONG BAD: I am the boxy serpent of doom!

STRONG BAD: Float like a green snake, sting like a light green snake!

STRONG BAD: Your Marquee de Queensbury rules are no match for my Kill You Dead with Venom rules!

STRONG BAD: The black border's great, because it lets you imagine a crowd cheering you on!

STRONG BAD: Man, if I had fangs like that, I'd finally get rid of my staple remover.

STRONG BAD: Taste my pixelated venom!

STRONG BAD: Oh, I must be some kind of King Cobra, or Czar Cobra...or Genghis Cobra!

STRONG BAD: Stop trying to get to First Base with me!

Homestar → Teen Girl Squad

First time only STRONG BAD: Put your hands up, and back away from the Teen Girl Squad, Homestar. We don't want this situation to escalate. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Not yet, Strong Bad. I've got to finish my 23-Volume Epic Graphic Novel Zine about a Really Cool Guy who wins the {fanfare} Race to the End of the Race, and slays a dragon, and starts dating a supermodel and makes his old boring girlfriend jealous, and— STRONG BAD: Yeah, yeah, I get it. How long will it be before I can use my drawing table again? HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh it might be a while. I still haven't figured out what to call my Really Cool lead character. STRONG BAD: Grr...

Second time only STRONG BAD: Are you done with your moron opus yet? HOMESTAR RUNNER: I'm almost ready to start... what do you like better, "Goldstar Stunner" or "Dash Bigstar"?

Each time thereafter STRONG BAD: Finish your comic already! HOMESTAR RUNNER: I'm trying, but the words keep coming out all misspelled and unintentionally humorous! Oh, if only I knew what it was like to be a winner!

Homestar's comic

STRONG BAD: Wow, Homestar's comic is really something... {cut to a view of Homestar's comic, which depicts a story titled "Run For Beans! (and more)"} something a blind cat might've thrown up after eating a blind rat.

Messy Pile

STRONG BAD: It's possible that my bed's under there, but I'm not touching it to find out.

STRONG BAD: I sent some Sherpas in there a few weeks ago, but they haven't reported back.

Metal Detector

STRONG BAD: All right, the Taranchula Black Metal Detector! I had to sell, like, 500 magazine subscriptions to get this baby. But it was totally worth it to be able to shoot radioactive positrons into the Earth's crust in search of rusty pennies!

Trophy → Homestar

STRONG BAD: {talking to camera} Hmm, this will require some stratergery... {talking to Homestar} Hey, look at that, thing... over there. HOMESTAR RUNNER: A thing? Where?! {looks around, Strong Bad hits him over the head with the trophy, he collapses} STRONG BAD: Hey, dumpwad, wake up! HOMESTAR RUNNER: {gets up} Who? What? Why? Oh, crap! I just had a wonderful dream where I won the Race to the End of the Race! {fanfare} STRONG BAD: But Homestar, it wasn't a dream, see? {gestures to trophy, now sitting on the table} You really did win the Race to the End of the Whatchamacallit! HOMESTAR RUNNER: I did? But how? STRONG BAD: How should I know? Maybe you were... sleep-running or something. HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yesss... that makes perfect sense. Well, looks like my 23-part graphic novel can wait for another day. {leaves, with trophy} STRONG BAD: Finally, I was thinking I'd never get to maim another badly drawn teen girl ever again!

Videlectrix Poster

First time only STRONG BAD: That's my Videlectrix Poster that I got for sending in ten bucks to become a member of the Videlectrix Good Graphicketeers!

STRONG BAD: "Videlectrix — We Use Computers... to Make Video Games!" I don't know why no one else has thought of that...

When entering the room

Only if Homestar is present {music} STRONG BAD: What? How? Huh? You were just— HOMESTAR RUNNER: {sighs} (if in kitchen) Siiiiigh...

Strong Sad's Room

Strong Sad's Door

First time only STRONG BAD: Hey Strong Sad! You in there? STRONG SAD: Yes! STRONG BAD: C'mon, lemme in! I just wanna punch you a few hundred times! STRONG SAD: Not interested. Second time only STRONG BAD: C'mon Strong Sad, I've got your favorite food, some nasty ethnic food! STRONG SAD: I don't believe in favoring one food over another. Each time thereafter STRONG BAD: Strong Sad Raymond Jenkins, you open this door right now or I'll— I'll— I'll— STRONG SAD: You'll what? STRONG BAD: Oh, we'll just wait until your father gets home and see what he says! STRONG SAD: You're not even my real mom! STRONG BAD: Fine. I didn't want to go in your purple room of doom and gloom anyway!

Candy → Strong Sad's Door

STRONG BAD: Strong Sad, if you open the door I'll give you a box of ChocoOpps. STRONG SAD: You know I can't have peanuts!

Game Epilogue

{Cut to Strong Bad sitting at the Lappy, typing} STRONG BAD: So there you have it Monsieur Manure: the video game adaptation of how I finally beat the snot out of Homestar, in the most direct and least convoluted way. Man I'm awesome. Eat snail, Strong Bad. {camera pulls back, Strong Bad turns around and stands up on Stooly} STRONG BAD: {half singing} So you see people, that's why you can't, no you can't, uhn, handle my style, because it's hot, {jumps off Stooly, and lands on the washer (in the basement), hops down and walks to the couch} {very quickly} so please allow 10 to 15 minutes for it to properly cool before you try to handle my styyyyle! {lies down and closes his eyes, camera pans up and left, cutting through the wall and to the lappy. Ominous music is heard. The Municipality logo is seen on the Lappy's screen. Slow zoom in and fade} {Credit roll b/w dimmed out scene of Strong Bad sleeping on the couch} {Following credits, a preview for Strong Badia the Free is seen before returning to the game menu}
