Sender: Nicolas
Strong Bad: (vocalizing) Ow-mnow, mnow, mnow... (vocalizes louder) Mow-mnow, mnow, mnow...
Nicolas asks if his brothers' claims are true that Strong Bad's legs are made of tape, something to which Strong Bad deeply takes offense.
Strong Bad: I mean, do I look like some kind of tape-leg? I can guarantee you, man, I am not a tape-leg.
Strong Bad lifts his leg up to show, but is rather surprised to find a piece of tape stuck to his shoe, which he hastily removes.
Strong Bad: That's what they were probably talking about. Yeah. You probably misunderstood them, man. No, they probably said I had tape on my leg or my shoe and you thought they said that my leg was made of tape. My leg is not made of tape. Pfffph! I must've just stepped on an innocent piece of tape...tape.
Tropes
- Big "WHAT?!": Strong Bad's response to Nicolas's brothers claiming he has legs made of tape is an indignant "They said my legs were made of tape?! WHAT??"
- Felony Misdemeanor: Strong Bad is affronted that Nicolas and his brothers would accuse him of being a "tape-leg".
- Running Gag: The email itself has become a running gag, due to its mediocrity.
Strong Bad: All right, so until next week, send me some good ones. You know, some good ones.
