'''Airdate:''' Monday, May 7, 2007
'''Sender:''' [=PlasticDiverGuy=], Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
[=PlasticDiverGuy=] wants some hints on talking to a "smelly underling" about their hygiene with tact and professionalism.
-->'''Strong Bad:''' Now lemme tell ya PastyDeadGuy, you came to the right man. I've got so many underlings, I've had to deal with nearly every awkward social situation under the awkward social sun. I'm an expoit!
Strong Bad's suggestions on discreetly discussing things with smelly underlings include:
* Wearing a "hilarious novelty t-shirt" with something like a picture of a scientist wearing a clothespin on their nose and the caption "You-Reek-A!", to send a message to one's "smunderling" while staying safely out of stink's reach.
* "Slowly revealing a sensitive topic to a friend or loved one with a clever connect-the-dots puzzle", as seen with Strong Sad.
* "Breaking tough news to someone with a reverse sunburn your brother's giant, square, billboard-sized back", as seen when Strong Mad convinces Coach Z to change out of his "tiny bathing suit"... unfortunately, Coach Z takes it off while he's still in the pool.
-->'''Strong Mad:''' PUT IT BACK ON! PUT IT BACK ON!
* "A hidden message written in condiments", as seen with Strong Bad breaking the news to Homestar that "You've had that piece... of cilantro... stuck between your teeth... since we ate at that Mexican restaurant... two weeks ago."
Strong Bad closes with an awkward outro in which he makes promises to work hard and get Mrs. Hardmaster fired "if elected class president", but quickly snaps out of it.
