Mordecai: Bought? But we spent our money. How did you get more?
Rigby: Let's just say, I love being a sneaky raccoon.
(Goes to Benson getting his wallet off the table and sees no money in it)

Mordecai: In a minute! Just let me finish this real quick.
Rigby: Ugh, fine.
(Rigby walks to the house and Mordecai sighs and finishes; a man in a suit walks up to him)
Man: Sorry if I'm distracting you but you are a VERY good artist.
Mordecai: Oh, thanks dude.
Man: No problem. (Gives Mordecai a business card) My name is Mark and I promote artists so they can become famous and I think you have potention to be a famous artist!
Mordecai: Really?
Mark: Of course! Just call the number on the card when you want to let me know that you want to be a famous artist! Farewell!
(Mark leaves and Mordecai grabs his things and walks to the house; Rigby is playing the video game and loses)
Rigby: Aw, come on! I played this 10 times and I'm losing to a computer guy! This blows!
Mordecai: Hey dude, can I play with you?
Rigby: Nah, I'm done playing for now. I'm getting a soda.
Mordecai: Get me one too.
Rigby: Yeah, yeah.
(Rigby walks to the kitchen and comes back with only one soda)
Mordecai: Dude, where's my soda?
Rigby: Oh yeah. You can get it.
Mordecai: Ugh, fine.
(Mordecai walks to the kitchen, opens the can of soda and soda goes all over him)
Muscle Man: (Laughs) I KNEW someone would fall for the "shaken up soda" prank!
Mordecai: Thanks alot Muscle Man!
(Benson walks in)
Benson: Mordecai, why are you covered in soda?
(Mordecai opens his mouth to speak but Benson interupts)
Benson: Nevermind. Today is a kid's birthday party and I need you to set up all the chairs in a half hour before the kids come.
Mordecai: Can someone help me?
Benson: Everyone else have their jobs and I gotta make sure everything is perfect since the parents are VERY picky about the way things are. OH and when you get done with that, you have to blow up all the balloons also since no one took that job. Also-
(Skips and Pops walk in)
Skips: Hey guys, have you seen Pops' "celebration" suit?
Pops: Oh Mordecai! Have you seen my suit?
Mordecai: No, I-
Benson: AND you have to set all the tables, broom the party hall-
Skips: And have you guys also seen my keys for my car?
(All the guys talk at once and Mordecai gets mad)
Mordecai: Enough! I can't do everything, you know! I'm sick and tired of all you guys treating me like I'm nothing! I never get treated right around here!
Rigby: Mordecai-
Mordecai: (To Rigby) Like YOU never got me that soda! And YOU dont want to play with me like you said! (To Muscle Man) YOU always prank me and think its funny! (To Benson) YOU always ask me to do jobs that are IMPOSSIBLE to do in a small time when it needs to be done by more than one person! (To Skips) YOU always lose your keys and not put them in your pocket so you won't keep losing them! (To Pops) And YOU don't need a suit JUST for a kid's party! (To everyone) And you know what? I QUIT!
(Mordecai stomps out)
Rigby: Mordecai....

Mordecai: I know you want me back but I'm happy with what I'm doing. Sorry guys but, I'm staying.
Rigby: Mordecai, come on. The Park doesn't feel the same without you! It had some sort of energy when you were around and now....it's dull without you. I miss doing punchies with you winning all the time, I miss slacking and having Benson yell at us because of it, I miss your wise words. PLEASE come back, we all miss you.
Mordecai: Well....
(The guys look at Mordecai with sadness and Mordecai smiles)
Mordecai: Hey, how about I go slack off and play video games with my best bro?
(The guys cheer and a knocking is heard at the door then the door comes down and Dylan has a mad look on his face and is holding the knife)
Dylan: He's coming back?!
Benson: Yes Dylan. Also since he's back, you're fired.
Dylan: Oh no. I am NOT losing my job and my friends! When I was a child, I didn't have any friends since I was picked on all the time and I could never get a job! This was my first time for those two things and now thanks to Mordecai, I lost them! You're gonna pay for this!
Skips: Dylan, don't do anything hasty.
