"S to the B" gets a "MASS" e-mail ("REMOVE ME! UNSUBSCRIBE! TAKE ME OFFA LIST!") asking if there's something could he could plug into the extra plug under his desk.

-->'''Strong Bad:''' Well, HUGE to the DORK, your timing couldn't be more perfect, as I just received my new electric boots in the mail today!

With "no fewer than eight lights flashing at any given time", "solid state" electronics, and a "whisper quiet" motor, Strong Bad is convinced "Ol' Fatty's 'Lectric Boots" are sure to impress the ladies down at the "cloughb". With the boots on his feet and the Cheat plugging them in, Strong Bad fires up his new boots... and while they're definitely flashing, they are anything but "whisper quiet", and the noise soon proves to be too much for the Cheat. The short cord is also something of a problem.

I suppose I can stop typing now. I'm gonna need some help finishing this e-mail without power.

Strong Bad heads to the TV room, where his brothers and the Cheat are entertaining themselves during the power outage by watching "a picture of Andy Griffith's head taped to the TV" with Homestar. Strong Bad proceeds to shanghai the lot of them into finishing up the email.
