Synopsis[]
Mordecai, Rigby, CJ and Eileen get trapped inside a scary movie.
Plot[]
The cut shows Mordecai, Rigby, CJ, and Eileen watching a movie called "Heads, You're Dead". After the movie is over, Mordecai and Rigby scoff about how terrible the movie was. Right after Eileen's personal opinion of the movie, Rigby shows them a VHS Tape called "Triple Threat" and tells them about the story of it, dating back to the 1970s where 3 members of a company think about a VHS Tape that could make or break them. One of them suggests a hack and slash movie called "Wolf Woods", another suggests a black and white film called "The Barber", and the other suggest a Japanese film called "Smile". Then, out of nowhere, ball lightning strikes the table, fusing all 3 VHS tapes into one, called "Triple Threat". They then played the tape, but their bodies were sucked into the movie. Rigby then tells them that according to legend, no one has survived the entire VHS tape, which Rigby bought for $1.99 with free shipping. CJ tells Rigby to put the tape in. After only a few minutes of it, the power goes out. But Mordecai notices that the VCR is still running. Rigby sees inside the VCR, and a werewolf hand not only sucks him, but the rest of them. They then see the VHS team in "Wolf Woods", skeletons with clothes still intact and a werewolf eating the third. The four run into a house and hide. After they run away, they then see Wyatt, who's getting a haircut by "The Barber" who told him to meet him at an insane asylum. After hearing his demonic laughter, the five then run up a spiral staircase and go into a so called morgue. Wyatt then assumes that the barber may be nice and not trying to kill them. Mordecai begs him to go with them, telling him that his hair is fine. But Wyatt ignores him and goes anyway, getting his head chopped off. After going out the door, they then enter the third and final movie, "Smile" where they see two schoolgirls, one of them tells the other that she is lonely due to everyone else being scared of her. When they meet, the wide open eyed one swallows the other whole, and then tells the four if they want to play with them. After CJ tells Rigby that she will never forgive him, Mordecai tells them that they are in the credits. They successfully escape the movie, however, the VHS tape is destroyed and ball lightning fuses all their butts together. Rigby curses the Triple Threat tape.
