'''Zarel E-Mail #1'''

Zarel is asked if he would rather be single or date someone.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' Zarel, Strong Bad, Strong Sad, Homestar, Marzipan

'''Places:''' Zarel's House, Strong Sad's Room, The Field

==Transcript==

''{Cut to Zarel's Room. The desk there is empty, and footsteps are heard, as well as indistinct conversation. The conversation gets clearer as Zarel approaches.}''

''{Zoom out to show Zarel and Strong Bad. Zarel is holding a large box.}''

'''ZAREL:''' ...so I just set it up here on the desk and then wait for the emails to come in?

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's how it's done. Now go out there and check the crap out of those e-mails. Just don't bite my style, and if you get any boxing glove emails...do ''not'' forward them to me. Just...delete them.

'''ZAREL:''' Roger!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Nononono...my name is Strong Bad. ''Strong.'' ''Bad.''

'''ZAREL:''' Uh...alright then.

''{Strong Bad walks away. Zarel places the box on his desk, opens it, and tears through it wildy. Several packing peanuts and pieces of cardboard can be seen flying about.}''

'''ZAREL:''' Ah, here it is! ''{pulls out a monitor}'' A Cappy brand computer, Model DT8! Or...just the Cappy DT8. ''{places it on the desk}'' And we need this- ''{pulls out keyboard}'' this- ''{pulls out mouse}'' this- ''{pulls out tower}'' and...this? ''{pulls out a burrito}'' Since when did computers come with free burritos? Oh well, can't let this go to waste.

''{The camera switches to a closer view of the Cappy. (y'know, with Zar's reflection and all) Zarel eats his burrito, making several "Om nom nom" sounds. He clicks on the email icon on his computer.}''

<blockquote class=zarel>
<div>subj: an email in rhyme? it's limerick time</div>
Dear Zarel, my most trusted of buddies!<br/>
Here, now, is a question to study;<br/>
if given the chance<br/>
to choose play or romance,<br/>
would you rather be smitten or muddy?<br/>

- Skully B, a Rhyming G
</blockquote>

''{Zarel begins reading the email with his mouth full, but then gulps down the food in his mouth and reads it again. He reads "Skully B" as "Skully-buh" and "a Rhyming G" as "a Rhymin-guh.}''

'''ZAREL:''' ''{typing}'' That is a very good question, Skulliba. However, it'd be much much better if you...I dunno, made sense? ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' So what you are asking me is if I could choose between playing or romance, would I rather be murdered or dirty, yes? Well...I'd ''definately'' rather be all covered in even the smelliest mud ''{he talks the small partunder his breath}'' <small>unless said "mud is courtesy of the Poopsmith,</small> then be brutally killed by someone. I think I'm going to have to ask an expert translator of such...lime Ricks, or whatever they are called for the other question.

''{Cut to Strong Sad's room}''

'''ZAREL:''' ''{peeks through the doorway}'' Strong Sad? I...eh...need your help on something real quick-like!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, hey, Zarel. What do you need?

'''ZAREL:''' I need you to translate this Liam and Ricky for me.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, you mean a limerick, right?

'''ZAREL:''' Yeah! A...whatever you said!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Alright, hold on a sec. ''{shouts to the other room}'' See? I told you I had a purpose!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' Yeah, and that's all you're good for!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh...

''{Cut back to Zarel's room}''

'''ZAREL:''' Alright, what does it say?

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ah, this limerick is simply asking you if you would rather be single or date someone. It has nothing to do with murder or dirt at all.

'''ZAREL:''' Thanks, Strong Sad. You may go now.

''{Strong Sad walks off, cut back to the Cappy}''

'''ZAREL:''' Alright, now that I have a translation... ''{typing}'' So anyway, Skeletor, would I rather have the single life or date someone... ''{when he types the ellipsis he says "dot, dot, dot"}'' probably single. There aren't many girls here in Free Country, just Marzipan. And what kind of idiot would want to date her?

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{offscreen}'' Marzipan...

'''ZAREL:''' ''{dejected look}'' Oh. ''{looks out window}''

''{Cut to the Field, Homestar walks up to Marzipan}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Marzipan, I got you these flowers and a dead possum for Valentines Day!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sigh}'' Homestar, I thought you knew I protest against the giving of dead animals as gifts! How do you think they feel? Also, Valentines isn't until a month later!

'''HOMESTAR:''' Oh...I guess I'll just...um...food...someplace. Bye! ''{runs off}''

''{Cut back to Zarel}''

'''ZAREL:''' ''{sigh}'' Hippies.

''{The Paper comes from the top of the screen, reading "Click here to e-mail Zarel @ zarelthewinddrgn@aim.com"}''

'''ZAREL:''' What the crap is that thing?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh! Allow me to explain! When you signed up for this email-checking gig, I gave you your own complimentary The Paper! Well...I really just taped a printer to your wall and filled it with yellow notebook paper...because you're yellow and all.

'''ZAREL:''' That's cool and all, but how long will this tape hold?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, about 173 emails or so, give or take.

''{Zarel starts poking The Paper}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What are you doing?

'''ZAREL:''' I'm trying to email myself!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sigh}'' Looks like we've got another idiot here...
