"That's not my car, Homestar. That's the CEO's car." Matt explained.
"Oh. Whewe is your cawr?" Homestar wondered.
"It's in the back row. That one on the end." Matt pointed to a squat, maroon commuter car with a bent hood.
Homestar stared. "Youw kidding wight?"
"Unfortunately I'm not." Matt mumbled as he flipped through his keys.
"Sooo… can I dwive?" Homestar asked while waiting for Matt to unlock the door.
"I don't think you know how, Homestar." Matt replied.
"Of couwse I do." Homestar argued.
"Trust me. We'll get there much faster… and in one piece… if I drive."
They got in Matt's junker and drove out of the lot to head downtown. Homestar stared out the windows and marveled at the sights and sounds of the city until they arrived at another office building.
"Thewe's just one thing I don't undewstand about all this." Homestar stated as Matt parked the car.
"What is that?" Matt inquired.
"Whewe in the heck is Mawzipan! Sewiously… I looked fow her evewywhere."
"I'm sure you'll find Marzipan once we get you back to your web site. You always do."
"Yeah. I guess your pwobably wight."
EARLIER THAT DAY… BACK IN FREE COUNTRY…
"I BROKE THE STIIICK!" Strong Mad shouted. He held up a rake that had been snapped in two.
"That's okay, Strong Mad. You did a wonderful job helping me with my garden today. Let's call it quits." Marzipan suggested. She and Strong Mad had been weeding the garden behind Marzipan's house all morning.
Strong Mad departed happily, throwing aside the snapped rake. Marzipan retrieved the rake and took it over to the garbage. "That's the third rake this week." She commented. Then she paused. "Well that's strange. I haven't seen Homestar around. Usually he is out here pestering me by this time of day. I hope he didn't get himself knocked unconscious again, or fall into a hole, or stick a fork in an electrical outlet (no wait, he hasn't done that yet), or get sick on marshmallows…" Marzipan walked away, still listing stupid things Homestar had done in the past.
Fifteen minutes later, Marzipan arrived at Strong Bad's place. Strong Bad was still sitting on the couch, but now seated next to him was Strong Mad. Strong Bad was just starting to sneakily chow down on a suspiciously familiar sandwich, but when he saw Marzipan he hastily tucked the sandwich behind his back. "Oh, uh, hey Marzipan. I think Homestar was looking for you." Strong Bad said.
"He was? When was that?" Marzipan wondered.
"I don't know… a couple of shows ago. Then he wandered off and must've found something else to do cuz he hasn't been back to get his sandwi- er, I mean I haven't seen him since." Just then a slice of tomato decided to fall out of the sandwich onto the couch.
"Is that a veggie burger?" Marzipan asked suspiciously.
"Erm, no… it's a tomato sandwich burger… that is now tomato-less." Strong Bad fibbed.
"YOU STOLE MARZIPAN'S BURGER!" Yelled Strong Mad.
"I did not! Waitaminute… how did you… who did you… THE CHEAT!" Strong Bad dropped the sandwich on the couch and shook his fist at The Cheat, who was peering out from behind the couch. He didn't have time to give The Cheat a proper kicking, though, because Strong Mad leapt up from the couch and started going after Strong Bad, yelling "YOU STOLE SANDWICH!"
Marzipan quietly left the room. Behind her, Strong Bad was pleading with The Cheat. "I'm sorry, okay! Ouch! I just didn't think you could finish- ouch! -that entire sandwich anyway!"
Next, Marzipan visited Strong Sad. He was playing battleship with Homsar in his room.
"Queen to B-45," said Homsar.
"Homsar, it only goes up to twelve," Strong Sad pointed out. "Oh, hello Marzipan."
"Hi Strong Sad. Have you seen Homestar anywhere today?" Marzipan inquired.
"AaAaAaAaA, I won the blue starch panda!" Homsar replied unintelligibly.
"Actually, I saw him this morning over by the stick looking for you, and then later I saw him wandering off in that direction." Strong Sad pointed. "I don't know why, because there really isn't anything out that way… of course there was that one time when I went for a walk because these kids at school-"
"When did you see him over there?" Marzipan interrupted.
"I guess it was a few hours ago." Strong Sad recalled.
"Well he can get himself out of trouble this time. I'm not going after him every time he does something stupid. Thanks Strong Sad." Marzipan left the room.
