Well, it's definitely not my favorite episode, but it isn't my least favorite, either. I can easily agree that Muscle Man's actions were detestable, but he acted like a jerk numerous times in the beginning of the series. Looking back at episodes such as My Mom and Party Pete, I can't say Muscle Man was at his worst here. That being said, it did bother me that he was willing to go to such extreme lengths just to prank Mordecai and Rigby. It really wasn't that funny, and it just made me despise how he was treating them. He certainly should have approached them differently, but since this is Muscle Man we're talking about, I can see why he didn't. Although his actions were wrongful, I think he was just being himself. He still likes to prank people to this day, which is evident in episodes such as Prankless and Starter Pack. Now that I think about it, the way he treated Thomas in Starter Pack was practically identical to the way he approached Mordecai and Rigby in See You There. Perhaps he thinks he is above everybody until he gets to know them. No matter what Muscle Man's excuse was in this episode, he seems to be much more mature by this point. Sure, he still likes to prank people and cause trouble, but at least he can finally stand up for himself and watch out for his friends. As long as he's matured, (Which he has... in his own way, that is) I can easily forgive him for what he did in the past. While See You There isn't on my favorites list, I don't hate it. Seeing as it aired very early in the series, Muscle Man really didn't have a chance to develop as a character. The mistakes he made probably helped mold his character into what he is today.
