Script
SIR PHOTO: Salutations. I am Sir Richard Photograph, or Sir Photo for short, and this is my friend The Troll. THE TROLL: Grr... {Old-Timey Strong Bad walks by} SIR PHOTO: Can you please come on in here, ma'am? OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD: Ahh, jibblie! How that painted artwork frightens me so! Jibblie, I say! SIR PHOTO: I must sing a song now. {singing} I'm going to check my mailbox to see... if there is anything... inside of it... {Walks to mailbox and gets some mail}

SIR PHOTO: Well, Graycolorsworth, that is certainly a peculiar question. I may be a more frightening painting with big red eyes holding a torch, or maybe I might be a millionaire living in the Museum of Painting History! There truly is no way to know for sure. Instead of answering mail from the mailbox, I may use an electronic device to read mail and instantly respond to them in a humorous way whilst The Troll does his new tap-dancing routine!

THE TROLL: {does a tap-dance while classical piano music plays in the background}

SIR PHOTO: I might even become a COLOR photograph! This grayness may seem slightly boring until you get used to it. Yes, that might be what may happen in a mere 8 decades of mail-checking. So, that's all for this mail show. Join me next time, and I'll be a colorful painting, humorously checking mail on an electronic device. So long, folks!

 * GOBLIN: Hey, HP. Want me to perform my new tap-dancing routine?
 * HP: Not now, I'm busy checking mail on my electronic device. It asks what I would have been like in 1936.
 * GOBLIN: Maybe you would've been a black-and-white photograph wearing a top hat and answering mail on your telegramophone.
 * HP: Thaaat's ridiculous! C'mon, try being realistic!
 * GOBLIN: You might be a creepy picture answering emails from Browntants and asking everyone for a challenge.
 * HP: There you go.
