Transcript

{Strong Sad is at his writing desk (as in the canon), writing in his fancy handwriting}

STRONG SAD: {reading} ...bile spew forth from...

{His computer turns on and shows the following email}

Dear Strong Sad,

I have seen your blog and have noticed that you like the old movie Noseferatu.
So I just wanted to know,do you like any other movies from the 1930's?
If so, which ones would you suggest?

-Signed, Your Biggest Fan: Invader T.K.

STRONG SAD: Huh, that's weird.

{Strong Sad walks over to his computer and sits down}

STRONG SAD: {reads email, says "1930's" as "ninteen-thirty unnecessary apostrophe"} Greatest fan? That's the most depressing thing I've heard, even including my last story about a puppy with laser eyes. So, Invader Not Approved by Jhonen, you want my opinion on cienma? I think...

{Before he can say anything the words on the screen melt and water flows out of the computer. New words appear on the screen} 

 Before you die you see student films.

STRONG SAD: What? 

BOO!

STRONG SAD: Ahhhh! {runs out of the room}

{In the Strongs' dining room (whatever that looks like), Strong Bad is entertaining a young Japanese woman wearing a hospital gown. Long black hair obscures her face. The lights flicker ominously.}

STRONG BAD: So baby, what do you suggest we do tonight?

{Strong Sad runs in}

STRONG SAD: Strong Bad, you need to get out of the house!

STRONG BAD: More like you get out of the house! I'm entertaining this fine lady and I don't want you to nerd her off before I get to first base.

STRONG SAD: {looks at woman} Ahhhh, it's her!!!

STRONG BAD: Yeah, she's a woman, dumpus. Your point?

STRONG SAD: My point? She's Sadako, the Japanese version of Samara from "The Ring". She's the evil spirit of a murdered psychic bent on destruction! My point is she'll kill you!

STRONG BAD: Counterpoint: She's hot.

{Pause}

STRONG SAD: I'm going over to Homsar's for a few decades. I hope Strong Mad has more sense than you. {leaves}

STRONG BAD: {to Sad} Yeah, I bet you hope he has more sense than me! Loser! {to Her} So, what about that tape you were talking about?

{A horse runs through the hall behind them}

STRONG BAD: Stupid recessed lighting.

{Cut to a beaten up mailbox with "Homsar" written on it}

STRONG SAD: {from inside mailbox} ...and I think it would make a great date movie, but I wouldn't know about that. So watch those movies and tell me what you think. Just make sure not to watch any unlabeled VHS tapes. Sighed, Strong Sad.

HOMSAR: {inside mailbox} Frolic in brine, goblins be thine!

{The End}

Easter Eggs

  • Click any where on the screen for this H*R version of the cursed tape:
    • A coffee cup "ring" on a doodle of Strong Bad
    • Sanka being poured into a cup of orange juice
    • Strong Sad with a paper bag over his face falling off a cliff.
    • Homsar shierking
    • Gavin
    • Naked Homestar: Boo!
  • Oh, but don't watch it (or read that list) or you'll die. Sorry about that.

Fun Facts

Explanation

  • This whole email is a reference to the Ring series. Based on a novel by Suzuki Koji, it has spawned several Japanese movies, a Japanese televison series, and an American version starring Naomi Watts. Most of the references here refer to the American movie, since I have not seen the Japanese version yet. I used Sadako instead of Samara because it would be too creepy for Strong Bad to romance a little girl. But which Sadako is he courting? That's for you to decide.
  • "Frolic in brine, goblins be thine" is from a translation of line in one of the Japanese movies. I don't know which one! I'm using references I don't know about!
  • The "Invader Not Approved by Jhonen" refers to Invader Zim. Jhonen Vasquez, the creator, says he named all the invaders in the first scene in the first episode. You're not an Invader, kid.

Note

  • I don't know anything about 1930s movies. Maybe you should try Casablanca, T.K.?
