''{The toon opens in the basement of the Brothers Strong. Strong Sad, the King of Town, and Bubs are sitting on the couch. Coach Z, Strong Mad, the Poopsmith, Pom Pom, and Marzipan stand behind the couch, and The Cheat stands in front of it.}''

BUBS: Hey, the King. Didn't you order pizza a couple hours ago?

THE KING OF TOWN: Pizza? {he looks around} Oh, yes. {burps} It came.

{Bubs frowns.}

POM POM: {bubbles; laughing} COACH Z: {simultaneously} Ah, fer cryin' out loud. Try havin' a praper reunion party with this guy around.

STRONG MAD: I WANT ANCHOVIES!

MARZIPAN: Does anybody know where Strong Bad is? Someone invited him, right? ''{During the last part of her line, a silhouette of Homestar Runner starts to walk oncreen from the right, in the foreground. He stops in the center of the room, in front of the TV.}''

STRONG SAD: I dunno. It wasn't me.

{Cut to a front view of Homestar in front of the Telebision.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ahem. My good friends, colleagues, and accolades. It is such a special honor to be gathered here in celebration of&mdash;

''{Cut back to a wide shot of the room. Strong Bad is standing to the left, apparently having just walked in.}''

STRONG BAD: Hey. What the crap y'alls are doing in my house?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Happy years reunion, Strong Bad!

THE CHEAT: {The Cheat noises, to Strong Bad}

STRONG BAD: Twentieth anniversary? That's today? That's this year?! HOMESTAR RUNNER: That's right that's right! Two thousand twenty-kay sixteen! This year, our scrappy children's book selves are headin' for that big 2-0!

COACH Z: {holding up a Cold One bottle} Just one year away from legal Ones age!

STRONG BAD: Shouldn't several years of completely not activity... not count toward anniversaries?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I dunno about your show. But all the classic Hremails came out between aught eleven and aught fourteen. Decemberweener? Pants-leg? Hremail207?

{Cut to a close-up on Strong Sad.}

STRONG SAD: Not to mention! The Strong Sad fanbase hit its greatest number of users at almost negative two!

STRONG BAD: Yeah, that's not&mdash;

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Anyways, where was I? Oh yes. On a special day like this, it is important to take a look back on some of our fine musty old memories. ''{As he continues to talk, the background behind him fades to the Storybook World, where The Homestar Runner and Pom Pom are seen. Pom Pom is bouncing up and down. Tiny-Handed Strong Bad hops onscreen from the right. The Fat Bee flies slowly overhead.}'' It all started twenty anniversaries ago, when three very special people decided to enter a contest. Now, I don't remember who those people were, or why that block of cheese kept showin' up, but from that day came a fruited era of cartoons with bad plots and bad graphics. Sniff. I'm moved to an emotion.

''{Cut to a close-up of the Storybook field, where The Homestar Runner and Tiny-Handed Strong Bad stand in the foreground. Modern-day Homestar is no longer visible.}''
