(''A weird face appears on the seat of the stool and coughs'')\\
'''Strong Bad:''' Euw! Maybe it is time for a re-imagining of my email-checkin' chair.\\
'''Stooly:''' (''coughs'') I just need a lozenge...

Strong Bad checks in at the concession stand to see if

'''Bubs:''' Crabadonk!

First up on the market is a red, white, and blue-striped bicycle seat, which Strong Bad recognizes as "Red, White, and Banana, my old bicycle seat!" While he has fond memories of his "paper route" (which involved throwing flaming newspapers at the neighbors' houses), he also has some bad memories of "a few too many wipe-outs" on it.

Next up is a chair inexplicably shaped like Homestar Runner... or possibly the actual Homestar Runner, as it doesn't seem too comfortable with Strong Bad sitting on it.

'''Strong Bad:''' (''jumps out of the chair'') Waugh!\\
