STRONG BAD: Alright people, because this is my fifth e-mail, I'll answer five of your e-mails. {hesitantly} Uh, minus two. 'Cause you know, {whispers, barely audible} five minus two is three. {normal voice} Now let's get this trainwreck a rollin'! {brings up email}

subject: time travel

Dear S and some kind of Bee,

I think you should ask Bubs for a time travel
device and then travel to the ast where you could
change one thing.

-Mitchell Smith (Not Michelle)

{Strong Bad pronounces "ast" with a long A sound. He says "Michelle" instead of "Mitchell" and says "No one cares." for the part in parentheses.}

STRONG BAD: What?! A time travel device? Boy Michelle, you really do have crap for brains. Didn't you watch my last e-mail show, where I used my time travel device to get myself some N & N's? {clears screen} If that's not good enough, dork and some kind of dork, then I'll use my time travel device to travel forward in time to when I've deleted this e-mail and moved onto the next one.

{There is a flash of white light as we cut to Strong Bad in front of another email, which he reads.}

subject: what?

HI STRong BAD!!!!
I'm COOOOOL!! PLS TELL EVERY1 HOW coOOoooL i
am!

FROM...
Rainer,
Australia.

...

!$$$^$%@!*^@%)

{Strong Bad yells the capitized parts, he uses his normal voice on the lowercase text.}

STRONG BAD: {reading the part after "Australia."} Dot dot dot. Exclamation mark. Triple dollar to the power of dollar percent at exclamation mark. Asterisk to the power of at percent. End bracket. {stops reading, clears screen} You know, this e-mail really speaks to me. It like, totally yells at me, "I need to get a life. I also need to get deleted!" So, I will delete this. But, instead of just deleting it, I will go back in time to the ast, {pronounced with long A} and do a bunch of random stuffs that will hopefully lead to this e-mail being deleted.

{Cut to a farther away shot. The Cheat walks in and Strong Bad faces him.}

STRONG BAD: All right The Cheat, let's do this thing.

{The time traveling bright light appears and we cut to Strong Bad and The Homestar Runner on barrels in an Old-Timey scene. There are many barrels in the background. Note that present-day characters and objects in the following scenes are in color. A montage begins with The Homestar Runner's dancing music. After a few seconds, Strong Bad jumps up and punches The Homestar Runner.}

{Fade to The Sneak with a Thai Iced Tea. The Cheat comes with another Thai Iced Tea. The Sneak wiggles his nose and The Cheat does a little jump in response. We zoom into The Sneak's fur.}

{We zoom out to Strong Bad and Sickly Sam standing on seperate steel girders high above the city. Strong Bad jumps and punches Sickly Sam, causing Sickly Sam to "go away."}

{Fade to Strong Bad and Old-Timey Strong Bad standing in a room next to several Thai Iced Teas stacked up on top of each other. Old-Timey Strong Bad says something.}

{The montage ends. The time travel transition is used and Strong Bad is sitting in front of the Tandy.}

STRONG BAD: {typing} So there you have it. I went back in time and messed a bunch of stuff up. I hope you're happy, Michelle! Anyways, only one horrible e-mail left. {he brings it up}

Dear Strong Bad,

ert+

STRONG BAD: {reading, ignoring the first line} Ert plus. {pauses, coughs} Is this what you call an e-mail? This does not even come close to being a decent e-mail. Why, this crap should be crapleted. I mean, a total crap is a crap crap Crautshank. Crappity crap.

{Cut to a farther out shot of the computer. Strong Bad turns to face the camera and it zooms into his face.}

STRONG BAD: Man, this triple email has been a large flop. And not the good kind of flop, either. I'm going to need some serious groodness to get this working again.

{Sterrance appears in front of the camera.}

STRONG BAD: {to Sterrance} Oh, no. I refuse to spend one more minute in this crappy time. Crappy, crappy crap. I like-a to say, "Holy crap!"

{Homestar appears from the right in the old-school style.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh no, it's the Strong Bad!

{Strong Bad goes back to his computer and starts typing.}

STRONG BAD: Ar-guh-huh! {spells "Argh!"} What was that emergency reset word? Uh, crap-for-brains? A load of crap? Tropical lazor crap? Crappity crap? Crap crap crap crap crap crap. Jlammy!

{The time traveling transition plays and Strong Bad is back in front of his Lappy.}

STRONG BAD: Phew. That was exhausting. That's the last time I ever do three e-mails at once.

{The Paper comes down.}

Easter Eggs

  • After The Paper comes down, click on "three e-mails" to activate a .exe.
{"running word_of_the_century.exe" gets typed in. JIB gets written beneath it in big text. It is quickly deleted and replaced with JLAMMY.}
  • Then clicking on "Jlammy" will send you to Homsar's answering machine, version 0.1.
{Homsar's answering machine is similar to Marzipan's except it is a toaster. It is called the "Rocko 1022."}

Homsar's Greeting:

HOMSAR: Hey, Jlammy! I'm not in service, so I'll be tweaking to the beep. {beep}

Message 1

STRONG BAD: Um, hello. Mr. Homsar, I believe {laughs} that you... should come to The Stick for a... um, {laughs} routine analysis. And leave your expieriment room completely unguarded... with all security systems turned off. {laughs} This is, um, Mr. Crautshank. So... hurry it up! {laughs} {beep}

Fun Facts

Trivia

Technicolor!
  • The Old-Timey cast was originally going to be in color.

Goofs

  • In the scene with The Homestar Runner, the barrels in the background don't appear until the time travel transition is completely over.
  • When Strong Bad punches, the skin past his elbow is a different color from the rest of his skin.
  • The Sneak's nose goes in front of his Thai iced tea while the rest of his body is behind it.
  • If you change the Tandy's contrast during the time travel transition scene, a large part of the computer around the screen will turn green. You may need to pause the toon to see this.
  • The moving green lines on the Tandy's screen go in front of "a>" and the email Strong Bad brings up but behind the text he types in.
  • When we zoom away from the Tandy, a whole line of text that Strong Bad supposedly has yet to write has been written down, only to disappear when we zoom in again.
  • The small gap between Sterrance and his right arm is filled in with white.
  • One of the cords of Homsar's answering machine goes inside the table instead of behind it.
