Synopsis[]
Muscle Man and High Five Ghost want to crash an old RV into a pit.
Plot[]
Muscle Man and Hi Five Ghost begin by walking back to their RV and are then caught in a fog. Muscle Man then trips over a rock in the fog, frustrated Muscle Man throws the rock and hears a noise believing he hit his RV and rushes to see that it is a different RV.
Muscle Man and Hi-Five Ghost then get an idea by sending the RV to the crash pit. Muscle Man then contacts Scottie to get a group of people to see the RV hit the crash pit. Next, Muscle Man attempts to open the door but has difficulty opening it, then opens the door and could see ghosts coming out causing Hi-Five Ghost to said: "What was that?" Muscle Man replies saying "It's probably just the wind." They then enter the RV, go to the driver's seat, find the keys and turn on the RV. While driving, they begin to see three ghosts appear right where they stand.
The ghosts then grab Hi-Five Ghost and Muscle Man and then asks them who they are. The ghosts explain that they are an 80's metal rock band called Skull Punch and are furious at Muscle Man for trying to crash their resting place into the crash pit. However, Muscle Man decides to take action and headbutts one of the members (not before saying his "My mom" jokes in the process) and kicks him. He then proceeds to help Hi-Five Ghost but is punched in the face and grabbed again. Muscle Man then begins by apologizing to the group to never bother them again. However, the leader says it's too late and he is going to see the crash pit with him and Hi-Five Ghost, still in the RV.
Desperate to think, Muscle Man then says they need to put a show before crashing the RV, otherwise, the people will call them lame. Hearing this, the lead member decides to put a show for the audience but they're being jeered at. Muscle Man dislikes their music so much that he gets into their RV to crash it.
He then sees a cinder block and then throws it at the acceleration pedal causing the RV along with Skull Punch to fall down the pit and are killed followed along by a nuke that also kills the audience. Muscle Man and Hi-Five Ghost are then seen ascending from the crash pit while Muscle Man is glad that the terrible music has finally ended and then realizes he is now a ghost as well and is disappointed, but he tells Hi-Five Ghost that it was the best crash pit ever.
