1* Heavy tells a tale about how [[BruiserWithASoftCenter he dug a grave for a sparrow]] during his stay in an assassin's camp as a child. Tycho is reduced to tears, and even [[HeroicComedicSociopath Max]] looks outright ''crushed'' to hear how it ended.
2-->'''Strong Bad:''' Alright, big pretend killer man. Tell me the most awesome story you have with plenty of super cool senseless violence!\
3'''Heavy:''' When I was boy, I was at camp, being trained in many ways of combat.\
4'''Max:''' Assassination camp for kids?! Oh, this is gonna be good!\
5'''Heavy:''' There was sparrow, sitting on fence. [[SnowMeansDeath Snow falls quietly around me.]] Without notice, another boy jumps from behind tree and kills sparrow with throwing knife! The boy runs away.\
6'''Max:''' And then...?\
7'''Heavy:''' I pick up sparrow and hear his last breath before digging him tiny grave...\
8'''Tycho:''' (''quietly cries into his hands'')\
9'''Strong Bad:''' [[EveryoneHasStandards That's not even a little bit funny, man]].\
10'''Heavy:''' (''sincerely'') No. It's not.
11* Heavy's references to being sent to a work camp if he fails. HarsherInHindsight after ''Meet The Director'', which revealed he actually spent time in one as a child in 1941. He was only able to leave with his mother and sisters by killing all the guards and burning the place to the ground.
12* If you win the Iron Curtain in the middle of a game, Heavy murmurs "Goodbye, my love" and hugs her gently before leaving the table, dejected. Happily, you can give her back to him in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''.
