This summer, one of my goals is to complete a parody of "Macbeth" called "Strong Bad, KoT". I've already written one scene, a parody of the "Out damned spot!" scene from Act V. Crap is the blood, Bubs is the Doctor, Coach Z the Old Man, & Strong Sad is Lady Macbeth. Take a wild guess who Macbeth is.

In the story, SB & SS plot to "shovel" the KoT, but they use The Poopsmith's one. The plot basically unravels like "Macbeth". Strong Sad goes nuts from the guilt, SB gets mad for power & shovels his best friend, Homsar is all 3 witches, and more! Stay tuned...

(Scene: Bubs’ Conces5ion Stand. BUBS is behind the counter; COACH Z is in front.)

BUBS: I think it’s your lawnmower.

COACH Z: I think it’s the oven.

(STRONG SAD enters stage L. He looks desperate.)

STRONG SAD: Hey, Bubs! You got any bottles of water? I’ve got this piece of crap on my hand that I can’t wash off.

(Close-up on Strong Sad’s hand. It’s clean.)

BUBS: Looks clean to me!

STRONG SAD: No, really, there’s a HUGE piece of crap on it!

(Close-up on Strong Sad’s hand again. It’s still clean.)

COACH Z: I don’t see nothin’ either.

BUBS: Why do you need bottles of water, anyway?

STRONG SAD: Strong Bad didn’t pay the water bill again.

(Cut to STRONG BAD with a big container of Durkshire House’s Fine Crown Polish, polishing his crown.)

STRONG BAD: Yeah, that’s the stuff. Nice n’ shiny, my little golden éclair!

(Cut back.)

STRONG SAD: Apparently, crown polish is really expensive. The guy goes through it like a bag of Cheez Thing-a-Ma-Bobbers!

(Cut to STRONG BAD eating a big orange bag of Cheez Thing-a-Ma-Bobbers.)

STRONG BAD: Ah, nothing like Cheez Thing-a-Ma-Bobbers on the throne!

(Cut back.)

STRONG SAD: So can I have some bottled water or not?

BUBS: Sorry, Strong Sad. All’s I got is Gatorade. 27 bottles.

STRONG SAD: I’ll take ‘em all! (puts a load of cash on the counter.)
Keep the change. (Starts opening the Gatorade bottles & pouring Gatorade on his hand.)

COACH Z: Wha-wha-what are ya doin’? You’re wastin’ precious carbohydrates and electrolytes!

STRONG SAD: Forget your electrolytes! I’ve got crap on my hand!

BUBS: (to COACH Z) I think he’s going crazy.

COACH Z: Maybe his, uh, blog’s broken.

STRONG SAD: Darn it! I’m out of Gatorade and there’s STILL crap on my hand!

COACH Z: I got some Listerine! (Takes a bottle of Listerine & pours it on STRONG SAD’s hand.)

STRONG SAD: OOOWWW! It burns!

COACH Z: (Thumbs-up.) That means it’s workin’!

STRONG SAD: No, it's not! (Pulls his hand away.) I'll just wait for a rainstorm. (Exits stage L.)

(BUBS & COACH Z stare at STRONG SAD for a few seconds.)

BUBS: I still think it's your lawnmower.

COACH Z: I'm tellin' ya, it's the oven!

Not bad, but I don't think Strong Sad would say "crap" like that so many times. He would probably just say blood...or...whatever's on Lady Macbeth's hands(I forgot).

Please don't cuss.

not bad. But what's with the crap?

When it's quoting Shakespeare, I don't think it's a huge deal. Many of you will read Macbeth in high school anyway.

Wow, pretty good.
I last read Macbeth a real real long time ago.
Not my favourite Shakespeare though.
I quite liked Hamlet
