Synopsis

Mordecai and Rigby attempt to sabotage a duo Benson is considering hiring to save their jobs.

Plot

The episode begins with a phone message from Margaret and Eileen to Mordecai and Rigby, complimenting them on their party from the previous night. Mordecai, in a daze, realizes that Rigby had set the alarm clock to 6 PM rather than 6 AM, and that they are both two hours late for their meeting with Benson by the Paddle Boats. They hastily clean up the house and drive the golf cart to the paddle boats. As they drive, Mordecai voices his concern that Benson will not forgive them this time, being late five times beforehand.

When Mordecai and Rigby pull up to the paddle boats, they see Benson talking with Jeremy and Chad. Benson instructs Jeremy and Chad to clean and check the paddle boats, and is delighted when they agree easily. Realizing that Benson will fire them, Mordecai and Rigby talk to Benson. Benson tells the two to 'not worry about it', stating people who make mistakes 'end up having to pay for those mistakes'. They insist on being assigned a job, but are reassured by Benson that Jeremy and Chad are capable (hinting that Benson will fire them).

Mordecai and Rigby figure that their only solution is sabotage. All of their attempts to sabotage Jeremy and Chad fail, much to their dismay. On another attempt, Mordecai and Rigby, split open a bag of compost onto the paddle boat, that had just been cleaned, to which Jeremy and Chad become hostile, as Jeremy shoved Mordecai and threatened the two to leave or they'll resort to violence. Mordecai and Rigby leave, still determined to make them leave, without wanting to fight them, they instead come up with another plan: to host a pizza party and invite everybody. Mordecai and Rigby find that as the party progresses, Jeremy and Chad are not fazed from doing their work, so as a last resort, Mordecai and Rigby turn up the music. The blast of the music causes one of the speakers to fall into the lake, somehow, summoning several giant lake monsters. Jeremy and Chad snap, and begin to brawl with Mordecai and Rigby after being prompted by one of the sea monsters, to which the whole party becomes chaotic, with everyone breaking out into a fight.

Soon Benson appears, forcing the partygoers out in a rage and hastily warns them never to set foot in the park ever again, before he proceeds to fire Mordecai and Rigby. Mordecai and Rigby try their best to defend their position, but their attempt is futile as Benson strictly commands them to leave the park, with the implication that they were never allowed in the park again for the foreseeable future, while flashing a camera at them, taking pictures of their expressions of getting fired. After managing to calm down, Benson then offers the jobs Jeremy and Chad, who are exasperated at the events of the day and they rocket away with their phones, saying "Good luck finding two suckers dumb enough to take this job.", to Benson's dismay. Just nearby, Mordecai and Rigby then offer themselves for their old jobs to a mortified Benson and Rigby then takes a photo of him, as payback, thus ending the episode.
