Synposis
The episode begins with Mordecai and Rigby playing a video game and Rigby finds Pops' "Mustache Monthly". The pair play "Rock, Paper, Scissors" to deliver Pops his magazine and however, Mordecai loses. Mordecai "walks in" on Pops and sees him nude in the buff. An awkward moment ensues and Mordecai tells Rigby about his encounter with Pops. Rigby decides that Mordecai needs to play "Strong Johns" to relieve him of his stress. This does not work, so Rigby takes Mordecai to see Magaret. But, Mordecai hallucinates again. Finally, Rigby and Mordecai go to a video store and make a purchase (mostly for a copy of "Good Cop, Sad Cop"). Rigby talks to The Movie Shack Hut Employee (Brain Eraser) and Rigby sees an oppurtunity to cure Mordecai of his bad memory. Eventually, Rigby forces Mordecai to watch Planet Starlight: Chasers Excellent and the video erases Mordecai's memories and thoughts. Rigby attempts to have fun with Mordecai by going bowling and throwing balogna on Muscle Man's car, but it does not work. Rigby turns to Skips for help. Skips and Rigby, then watch the video, encasing them in the same place as Mordecai. The trio then search around in Mordecai's memories and find The Naked Pops Memory. They began chasing The Naked Pops Memory, but Mordecai remembers his "bad" memory happening fast and the pace reflects on The Naked Pops Memory's actions. Mordecai starts remembering things to hinder The Naked Pops Memory's path, but it has no effect. Mordecai decides to drive off a steep cliff and cover The Naked Pops Memory once and for all. Mordecai then wishes for something to break his fall and the trio meets the video store clerk. He tells them the way out and Mordecai, Rigby, and Skips are back into reality. While Mordecai is celebrating his memory's displacement, Benson walks into the living room, fussing. While Benson is castigating everybody, his body towel slips off, revealing his "junkmail". And the episode ends, abruptly.

 * Goof: The Movie Store Employee is still able to talk and move with his pupils not enlargened like Mordecai while watching Planet Starlight Chasers Excellent but when Mordecai watches the tape, he can't talk and he couldn't move although he was still able to be at different places like the Arcade or bowling alley. When Skips and Rigby watch the tape, they are frozen outside their minds in the tape.
 * This is the third time that Mordecai lost to Rigby in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, first being "Pilot", the second being "Rage Against the TV".
 * Goof: When Rigby looked at the Planet Starlight Chasers Excellent tape for the first time, he didn't get affected although his eyes felt pain, but the second time, his mind was sucked into the tape.
 * This episode is a parody of the infamous Pokemon Shock. It starts when Mordecai's eyes get bigger.

 * In Mordecai's memory, a bunch of Bensons say "You're fired", which notes that Benson told Mordecai he's going to fire him more than Rigby.
 * It is revealed that Muscle Man drives a rusty car.
 * When movie films began to come out of Mordecai's eyes we see that the movie film had pictures of the past episodes.
 * When Pops was seen naked, he had hair, but in previous episodes where he is seen naked, he has no hair (probably wearing a shower cap) or simply when he takes off his hat, such as Jinx and Go Viral.
 * In the shots before Mordecai, Rigby, and Skips entered the door marked "Mordecai's Memories" there were several other doors with other people's names, probably referring to other people that have watched the anime video.
 * The Movie Shack Hut employee is in Mordecai's memories as a young man, even though Mordecai saw him as his present self.
 * It's also revealed that Mordecai and Rigby like to throw stuff at Muscle Man's car.
