Summary
A birthday party is scheduled, and everyone has jobs to do. Muscle Man and High-Five Ghost are in charge of picking up the special entertainment, Skips inflates the bounce-house, and Benson goes to pick up the children. However, Mordecai and Rigby are enlisted with the lame job of setting up the chairs for the party, as Benson cannot trust them with something important. In order to prove they are not slackers, the duo agreed to set the chairs without slacking off in exchange for not setting up the chairs next time.

But Mordecai wants to do the job, and Rigby wants to slack off, causing conflict. But Mordecai convinces Rigby that if they set up the chairs without slacking off, they may be next in charge of picking up the special entertainment next time, which motives him to help set up the chairs. But when they realize there are not enough chairs, they try to find the rest they come across a room and Mordecai crashes into the door when it was locked and badly hurt his arm. Then go inside and find that the room filled with old arcade games, and they both decide to play them rather than doing their job and Mordecai wins every game (much to annoynce of Rigby).

When they find one of the games requiring service, they find a note attached that says "In the name of all that is holy, don't connect the red wire to the blue wire. Thank you." Rigby unleashed a demon known as the Destroyer of Worlds who begins creating chaos and destroying the park, even killing the special entertainment and attacking the children. With help from Skips, the duo form a giant arcade graphics robot designed to fight the Destroyer of Worlds which each of them controlling one body part. But Skips is knocked out, and Mordecai goes off to set up the rest of the chairs, leaving Rigby to control the robot all by himself. In order to save Mordecai, Rigby excessive button-mashing is powerful enough to destroy the Destroyer of Worlds and save the day.

Mordecai then congratulates Rigby on a job well done, as he said "That was some sweet button mashing" and Rigby proved that he has skills, but the moment quickly ends as an angry Benson comes out and confronts the two, but it shows that Mordecai and Rigby have succeeded in setting up the chairs, Benson angrily tells them that's the last time that he assigned them to something important such as the chairs, They are thrilled that they don't have to set up the chairs next time, but they are given a new assignment and that's sweeping up the remains of the special entertainment, The two agree to get to it, after they have their break of course.
