Skips: Yeah, that would be pretty fun!

Benson: Alright.

Mordecai and Rigby: (disbelievingly) What!?

Benson: Well I have been working you all pretty hard lately, so how 'bout we all go out tonight and karaoke it up, my treat?

(Pops, Muscle Man, Skips and Hi Five Ghost cheer)

Benson: Great idea guys. Alright, let's finish our work for the day, fellas.

Muscle Man: This is gonna be awesome!

Pops: Ooh, I can feel the excitement in my bladder!

Rigby: Man, we're totally dead.

Mordecai: Dead? Dude, they're gonna hate us forever! [facepalms] Awww, why are we so dumb?

Rigby: It was the music, man! It fueled our frustrations, it wasn't our fault!

Mordecai: Whatever, we just can't let them see us trashing them. We gotta go find that master tape.

Rigby: But how are we gonna do that?

Mordecai: Dude, it'll be easy. We'll just go ask that fat dude for the tape, and if he says no, we'll just take it from him.

[Cut to Mordecai and Rigby being kicked out from the back door of Carrey O' Key's]

Carrey O' Key: I said no! I can play that tape whenever I feel like it and there's not a darn thin you can do about it. I don't wanna see you punks back here again. You're banned! [slams door]

[Scene cuts to the snack bar. Mordecai and Rigby walk up to Benson]

Mordecai: Benson! Hey man, we need to talk to you about tonight.

Benson: I'm only paying for the songs. You're on your own for food and drinks. [walks away]

Muscle Man: Aww what? Well, I've always got my gravy pouch. ''[pulls up shirt to reveal gravy pouch. Sucks gravy from a tube]'' Ahhh.

Mordecai: No, Benson, wait! We don't think going to karaoke tonight is such a good idea.

Benson: Why not?

Rigby: Karaoke's lame. We should do something really fun, like bowling!

Mordecai: Yeah, bowling's good! Or pool, the pool hall's always fun. Rack 'em up!

Benson: Guys, please.

Rigby: If we're throwing out halls, why not the greatest hall of them all?

Mordecai: Dance hall.

Rigby: Bingo!

Mordecai: (taking Rigby literally) Oh bingo? Really?

Benson: Guys.

Rigby: No no no, dance hall, I was saying bingo like you got it! Bingo halls are for losers.

Benson: Guys! What is it with you two? I'm trying to do something nice for everyone, boost morale around here. Besides, I've already called the karaoke place and reserved a table.

Mordecai: But wait, can't we just-

Benson: No, we're going to karaoke, and you know what, now it's mandatory. Yup, mandatory having fun at karaoke night. You don't come and you're fired. [runs away] So deal with it!!!

Mordecai: Now what.

[Cut to Carrey O' Key's]

Pops: Ooh, look how many songs. I'm gonna sing them all!

Benson: No Pops, just one. (smiling) Skips, what're you gonna sing?

Skips: Do they have anything with Spanish guitar?

Muscle Man: [fist pumping] Woo! Skips bringing it old school! Woo!

Benson: Ugh. Where's Mordecai and Rigby?

Waiter: Uh, ready to order sir?

Benson: No, we're still waiting for two. They don't think I was serious about this being mandatory I was being serious. If they don't show up they're fired.

Pops: Ooh, they'll be here!

[Pans to vents above where Mordecai and Rigby are]

Rigby: Oh man, we gotta hurry this up, Benson's gonna blow a fuse!

Mordecai: Rigby! [crawls towards a vent grate] Hey, I found it.

[Scene pans down the grate to a office]

Carrey O' Key: Hey Carl, how many signed up for karaoke so far?

Carl: Just one, boss.

Carrey O' Key: Well dangit that's not enough! We can't keep this place going with just one singer a night! It's time to play that dang tape! If that won't get people singing nothing will. Now get me ready like we talked about, you know how I got stagefright.
