* CoconutSuperpowers: Strong Bad inexplicably decides to do the mile challenge through cartwheels instead of running. This is most likely because these "cartwheels" consist of rotating the model, while running would require a full walk cycle.

Fortunately, however, The Cheat has his own ideas on how to rectify the situation:



"Coach Z", holding an interview with "Strong Bad", wants to know "How did- what's your secret?". Since this is a PBTC cartoon, Strong Bad naturally attributes his success to The Cheat, who for some reason is a millionaire that gets a parade in his honor.

Strong Bad strolls through the computer room, stopping only to flatly announce that he isn't doing an e-mail this week. The Cheat, however, has his own ideas about that...

Cue a Strong Bad Email done in "Powered by The Cheat" style, with Strong Bad getting an e-mail from "Seb" asking if he can run a mile.

->'''Strong Bad:''' You'd better believe it, Seb. I can ride, I can do cartwheels for a mile! Ready, and one, and set, and go!

Strong Bad proceeds to cartwheel away, passing through the TV room as a "TV show about The Cheat in a Trans-am" plays, jumping over some of Bubs' buses ("A New Record!! 19 Buses!!"), getting randomly cheered on by Marzipan and Homestar (the latter of whom Strong Bad trips), and busting through a brick wall on his way to "win the mile".

When Coach Z wants to know "How did- what's your secret?", Strong Bad naturally (since this is a [=PBtC=] cartoon) attributes his success to The Cheat, who for some reason is a millionaire and gets a parade in his honor.

->'''Strong Bad:''' So yes, Jimmy-Jimmy, there have been parades honoring The Cheat. But don't let that from stopping you from organizing your own. He can bee the Grand Marshall. He's also available for proms and pizza parties! So, okay folks, I gotta go to my next show. See you later, nice time!

* StylisticSuck: And how! The cartoon is done entirely in The Cheat's own dodgy animation style, including text so crudely-drawn there's no room for it on the Compy's monitor, forcing The Cheat to use initials instead.
