-->'''Strong Bad:''' The year was 1987, not a very good year for productivity. And as a result, productivity was down something-eight percent. I realized things were gonna spiral out of control unless I gave them a little jumpstart. A sign that said "No Loafing" was the answer.

Ryan wants to know what happened to the "No Loafing!" sign. Strong Bad first delves into the sign's brief history.

-->'''Strong Bad:''' The year was 1987, not a very good year for productivity. And as a result, productivity was down something-eight percent. I realized things were gonna spiral out of control unless I gave them a little jumpstart. A sign that said "No Loafing" was the answer.

Strong Bad decides that "Ol' Loafy might be losing his edge", and it's time to add some more motivational posters, with whales and sunsets and stuff about determination and all that, to jump-start things again.

Strong Bad approaches The Cheat and Strong Mad, scolding them for goofing around on their vaguely-definely job involving a pipe and muffler. He puts up some extra posters to hopefully inspire his lackeys to quit with the loafing already:
* One of "Some kinda whale in space" with "Remember the 'tivities: Creativity; Productivity; Activity; Get Back to Work".
* A windsurfer reminding viewers "Failure is not a four-letter word".
* An "incredibly inspirational" poster of a man leaping out of water with the caption "I HAVE FRIENDS! Keep working, little man"
* A picture of a dog bluntly captioned "The Cheat, watch your freakin' back, Squeaky".
* A wood-burned image of a horse with the caption "The loneliest goat sees the last sunset last..."

Inspired, the Cheat and Strong Mad go back to what they were doing... which was apparently pummeling the muffler with the pipe.
