As I've been doing with other sbemails that don't have easter eggs, easter eggs with dialogue, or additionaldialogue after The Paper comes down, I feel that Strong Bad's send offs, or at least the last thing he or others say, is an acceptable substitute.

* Strong Bad also imagines being in ''[=StrongBadZone=]'', a vector-based game where rather than the player controlling Strong Bad ("'Cause '''''you can't control me!'''''"), the player would control a "spiky-headed 3D cyber-shield guy with a cyber shield". The object would be to deflect "3D geometric attacks" from a giant vector version of Strong Bad's disembodied head as it tries to inflict "certain 3D doom" on the player.
