Weekend at Benson's

Weekend at Benson's is the name of the thirteenth season three episode of Regular Show.

Plot
Mordecai and Rigby are changing a lightbulb for a lampost, a task even they cannot handle. Benson begrudgingly steps in to do it himself, in an obvious rush. The duo try to ask Benson what's the big rush, but get into an argument which causes Benson to fall off a ladder and lose consciousness. Wanting to avoid being fired, the duo place shades on Benson and drive him back to his apartment.

Right before they reach his home, Audrey, Benson's neighbor, comes out and tells Benson to come party with her. The duo have no choice but to accept, yet they manage to conceal the fact that Benson is unconcious.

During the party, Audrey's ex-boyfriend, Chuck, walks up and ridicules Benson, challenging him to a eat-off. Benson's unconciousness allows him to easily win against Chuck, who admits defeat. However, Chuck offers Benson a victory drink dubbed "Mississippi Queen". It was right then that Benson regains consciousness.

Benson at first becomes outraged at Mordecai and Rigby, but then less so once he finds out that Audrey is cheering him on. As a result, Benson agrees to drink the Mississippi Queen, on the condition that Mordecai and Rigby drink it too. Surprisingly, the drink was not spicy at all, but instead brought up wild hallucinations that left the three back at the Park on the ground. Mordecai and Rigby would have been fired, had it not been for the "call me" note from Audrey taped to Benson.
