Transcript

HOMESTRIPE: I have an email in store for you!

Hi Homestripe,
Why do you have an email show? I mean, Stong Band and Homestar already have email shows. Why do you as well?
Sincerly,
someone

(Homestripe reads "Stong Band" and "Sincerly" as spelled.)

HOMESTRIPE: Stong Band has an email show? I'll have to check this out. (gets up)

(Cut to Stong Band standing in The Field. Homestripe enters the frame in the foreground.)

HOMESTRIPE: Hey, Stong Band!

STONG BAND: Uhdyeah, what ees it, Homestripe?

HOMESTRIPE: Someone told me you have an email show. Is that true?

STONG BAND: I can start one if you want me to.

HOMESTRIPE: Maybe later.

(Cut back to the Zlappy.)

HOMESTRIPE (sits down, typing): Well, there you have it. Stong Band doesn't have an email show yet. Strong Bad, on the other hand, that's a different story. (stops typing) And so, once again, an email is checked, thanks to Homestripe Runner! Preeeeow.

(The Paper comes down.)
