Lasko from Milwaukee wants to know why the Cheat never gets to answer any e-mails. As far as Strong Bad's opinion is concerned, the Cheat isn't popular enough to get much fan mail. When he checks his next few e-mails, however, all of them are asking about the Cheat, with one or two fans even saying the Cheat is cute/hot and that they like him more than Strong Bad. The Cheat is watching the e-mail himself, and isn't too happy with how dismissive Strong Bad is with all these e-mails praising the Cheat.
