Strong Bad briefly considers being taxidermied, suplexing a cougar no less, but then realizes he'd probably be used as a coat hanger by Homestar. Instead, he opts to have his corpse preserved "fetal pig style" in a giant mason jar, filled with "all the salty tears of all the heartbroken private school girls that will pine-uh for me-uh", so he'll be around to be reanimated for the zombie uprising of March 31, 2046.

Strong Bad also considers having Taranchula compose a death metal funeral dirge in his honor, as we see with Strong Sad bearing his brother in a jar to the gravesite to the tune of Taranchula's "Brother in a Jar". Strong Bad will also record his own eulogy and have it played back over five boomboxes, even if Coach Z accidentally records his latest demo tape over it. Finally, Homestar reads from "the Book of Phone" and introduces Strong Sad performing "an interpretive dance based on his brother's life", which is apparently more than Strong Bad's corpse can take.

Strong Bad briefly considers being taxidermied, suplexing a cougar no less, but then realizes he'd probably be used as a coat hanger by Homestar.
