Sender: Ali, Not-Ali
Strong Bad: Ah, the old girl's working again. What do you got for me?
Strong Bad has the Tandy back in working order, and much to his delight gets an e-mail from a girl who (along with her sister) think Strong Bad is cool and asks "Do you have a girlfriend? There is two of us." Strong Bad is intrigued by this offer, but much to his horror the Tandy malfunctions and deletes the e-mail.
Strong Bad: DELETED?! What?! Oy, what happened? No! Undeleted! Undeleted! I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT!!! Awwwww, man!!!! Come back, Ali! Come back Ali's sister! You two mean everything to me!!
Strong Bad waits to see if he gets another e-mail from Ali, but all he gets is an unsigned e-mail reading "I am write single to salute and wait for answer again"
Strong Bad: Whaaat. You're not Ali! You're not even... literate.
As he tries to delete the e-mail with extreme prejudice, the Tandy glitches again and has it "saved. forever.", much to Strong Bad's frustration.
Strong Bad: Oh, that's great. Great, thank you. Yeah, go ahead and save that one, why don't you, yeah.
Tropes:
- A Threesome Is Hot: Strong Bad is very accepting of the prospect of getting two girlfriends.Strong Bad: Oh, there's two of them!
- Double Take: Strong Bad's reaction when he accidentally deletes Ali's email.Strong Bad: [typing while speaking seductively] Well, Ali. There's ONE of me... [email gets deleted, no change of tone] a-deleted... [shocked] DELETED! What?! Oy, what happened? No! Undeleted! Undeleted!
- Flat "What": Strong Bad's reaction to getting a nonsensical, anonymous email instead of a second email from Ali is a deadpan "What?"
- Head Desk: Strong Bad repeatedly slams his head against his keyboard after the Tandy accidentally deletes the e-mail from Ali. He's somehow able to type the words "head hit keyboard" while doing so.
- Opinion Flip Flop: In "gimmicks", Strong Bad insists that he should just get the Tandy fixed, saying "I liked that computer!" After the Tandy accidentally deletes a wanted e-mail and saves an unwanted one, Strong Bad gripes "I hate this computer!"
- Shout-Out: The Imagine Spot images of Ali and her sister are taken from the first two Leisure Suit Larry games.
- Snarky Inanimate Object: Even in a glitchy state, the Tandy makes fun of Strong Bad when it saves an email he intends to delete.
Strong Bad: (continuing his tirade) So I can treasure it for years and years, and show it to my kids. The ones I should be having with Ali and Ali's sister! I hate this computer...
