FBI Warning
The FBI warning for Disc Six.
Cast (in order of appearance): Homsar
Transcript
{The standard FBI warning text appears on a blue background.}
TEXT: Federal law provides severe civil and criminal penalties for the unauthorized reproduction, distribution or exhibition of copyrighted motion pictures, video tapes or video discs. Criminal copyright infringement is investigated by the FBI and may constitute a felony with a maximum penalty of up to five years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine.
{Homsar shuffles up to the text upside-down on the ceiling from the upper-right corner.}
HOMSAR: AaAaAaAaAaAaA! AaAaAaAaAaAaA! AaAaAaAaAaAaA!
{He and the whole screen change at different angles with each scream, stopping with the message appearing upside-down, and Homsar now appearing right-side-up.}
HOMSAR: The blueberry billboard forbids you to duplicate!
{As he says "duplicate," his bowler hat splits into two. As it splits, it makes an all-too-familiar gross goopy sound and the two hats land on his head with a clank}
Introduction
Introduction for Disc Six.
Cast (in order of appearance): Homestar Runner, Strong Bad, Bubs, Female Lappy 486, New Paper
Transcript
{Open to a 3D shot of The Field. The camera pans across the grass and then zooms over to Homestar running along.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {approximately singing to the music of the Homestar Runner Theme Song} Hooomestaaar is running. Along. {drifting out of time with the music} Hooomestaaa–
{He collides with a trash can and falls in. Inside, he discovers The Paper's broken printer}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ooh, a crummy, 30-year-old typewriter! Probably belonged to ol' Stro Bro once, I bet.
{He climbs out of the trash can, taking the printer with him}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: I could sell this on Some Type of Online Auction!
{He walks away with the printer in his unseen hands. Cut to a long shot of Homestar walking off with it}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: It's probably gonna be worth less than that breakfast burrito, though. Oh well, one man's treasure is another man's trash.
{The camera zooms out and away from The Field and through a window into Strong Bad's computer room, where Strong Bad is seated at his desk}
STRONG BAD: {looking up} You done yet, Bubs?
{Bubs jumps down from above. He lands on the desk}
BUBS: Oof! I am now!
{Bubs climbs down from atop the desk}
BUBS: Your printer's all hopped up on tri-color diesel and blackberry juice!
STRONG BAD: Colored ink and black ink, right?
BUBS: Yep.
STRONG BAD: Good. Thanks, anyway.
BUBS: My pleasure! Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got me some gnomes to tase!
{Bubs walks off and Strong Bad turns on the Lappy 486. The "dong-ding" startup tone plays as the Female Lappy 486 icon appears on the screen}
STRONG BAD: What do you say, Lappy-pie, should I do it?
FEMALE LAPPY 486: Fake hit way, Strong Bad.
STRONG BAD: Ohbee-kaybee! You heard her, New Papes! Make with some of that new Preeow!
{New Paper comes down with the menu options, making its "Heunh heownh heunh heownh vvvvvt eangt clonk-a-donk" sound}
STRONG BAD: Well, that's like the new Preeow, but entirely different. And, uh, your digits look like an ISBN or something.
{After some time has passed, New Paper falls down}
STRONG BAD: Whoops. Lemme take care of this...
{While humming, Strong Bad walks over to where New Paper has fallen and picks it up. He places some duct tape on top of it to let it stay in place and sticks it back on top of the screen}
STRONG BAD: That's better.
{He turns to the camera}
STRONG BAD: And you out there, quit stalling and make a choice, will ya! The duct tape won't last forever!
{He sits back down on his stool in front of his desk, in his exact same position as where he was before New Paper fell}

Differences Between Website and DVD
- In 4 Branches:
- The Easter egg to make Homestar shoot off more fireworks has been disabled. Instead, it now plays automatically once after The Paper comes down.
- In What I Want:
- Strong Bad does say the email sender's location (Des Moines, IA), pronouncing it, "Dess Moinesia".
- In Strong Badathlon:
- At her tea party with Homsar, Marzipan is wearing a toga (exactly like her appearances in the intro scene of the DVD version of DNA Evidence).
- In Your Funeral:
- Like in "Strong Badathlon", Marzipan is again wearing the toga.
- In Hygiene:
- During the hygiene video, "Gene" has an additional friend: The Cheat, who, like "Gene"'s other friends, has the same stylish blond hair as the rest of them.
- In Slumber Party:
- The Clapping Party game has been disabled, for obvious reasons.
- In Web Comics:
- The Make-O Your Own Stinko Easter egg has been disabled.
- Whereas both appearances by the New Paper feature "the end" on it in the Podstar Runner version, the first appearance by it in the DVD version returns to the message on sending Strong Bad an email.
- In Fan Club:
- The Homsar and Senor Cardgage scenes are no longer picked at random; instead, the Homsar scene is shown automatically by default. To access the Cardgage scene instead of the Homsar one, press the angle button on your DVD remote as Strong Sad discusses the Non Sequitur Championship.
- If you watch this email via the audio commentary or the "play all" option, the Cardgage scene is disabled altogether.
- The Homsar and Senor Cardgage scenes are no longer picked at random; instead, the Homsar scene is shown automatically by default. To access the Cardgage scene instead of the Homsar one, press the angle button on your DVD remote as Strong Sad discusses the Non Sequitur Championship.
- In Shapeshifter:
- The Easter egg at email's end with Strong Bad turning into all the things he turns into during the email has been slightly revised. Now he automatically transforms into all of them, one by one, stopping with him turning back into his old self.
- The Strong Bad Gameways Easter egg has been disabled and is now a separate Easter egg on the DVD menu (see above).
