"Arm Skills"

Arm Skills was the second of three short stories in Regular Show Issue 3. It was written by Kevin Church, illustrated by Brooke A. Allen coloured by Whitney Cogar.

Plot
Mordecai and Rigby are looking at a board in the park, which has a poster for a slot car set, sold by pops, an arm-wrestling and the prize was $2,000 and also strength classes with Skips. They immediately go see Skips train them in the arts of Arm Wrestling. So follows a training montage, of hard training, intense training. At the day of the Arm Wrestling Fest, Mordecai are winning over all, alongside another group known as Das Robots, At the final events, Mordo and Rigs and Das Robots, and they seem to open some kind of vortex that awoken Pain Giver Prime. Das Robots can not allow humans to die, or experience pain, so they sacrifice their lives to kill Paingiver Prime. Mordo and Rigs think that they win by default, but they don't, because for saving the universe, they win memorial fund. The already mad Mordo and Rigs receive some more bad news from Skips. It turns out the slot car set was only $10, and now in Muscle Man's possesion.

Trivia
The Slot Car Set was $10, which according to the poster in the begining, was ironically cheaper than the contest entry fee, 50$.

The "I Want To Teach You" poster is a reference to the "I Want You!" Army poster.
