Over the Top

''[Episode begins at the hospital. Rigby is lying dead on a stretcher, and Mordecai, Pops, Skips and Benson are standing around him.]''

Doctor: [shuts Rigby's eyes and pulls sheet over him] I'm sorry. There was nothing we could do.

(Mordecai, Pops and Benson bow their heads]

Mordecai: (spitefully) You couldn't let it go. Well, I hope you got what you wanted.

(They all leave, while Skips looks after Rigby. Flashback begins at McHooligan's.)

Benson: Hey! Let me tell you guys something. This guy, this guy right here is so strong. He could take any one of you out in arm wrestling.

Skips: Nah nah. [laughs modestly]

Benson: Skips, Skips. I am your boss, and as your boss, I order you to arm wrestle me!

[Everyone chants 'Skips']

Skips: Alright, alright, if you insist. [slams Benson's arm]

Everyone: OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Benson: What did I tell you, what did I tell you?

Pops: Oh, oh, me, me!

''[Skips slams Pops' arm. Pops giggles]''

Mordecai: Set 'em up Skips, you can't take none of this. Yeah, yeah yeah yeah!

[Skips slams Mordecai's arm']

Mordecai: OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[Everyone chants as Skips slams Hi Five Ghost. Skips slams Muscle Man. Everyone chants 'Skips']

Rigby: Now me.

[Everyone laughs]

Rigby: C'mon Skips, set 'em up!

Skips: Okay, I'll go easy on you. [clasps Rigby's hand]

Benson: This is gonna be hilarious! Okay, ready, go!

[Rigby slams Skips]

Rigby: Haters gonna hate!

[Everyone laughs]

Skips: Enough! We're going again, I wasn't ready.

Rigby: Maybe. Or maybe you're just getting weak in your old age, gramps.

[ Skips and Rigby clasp hands]

Benson: Okay, ready, go!

''[Everyone chants 'go'. Rigby slams Skips]''

Rigby: Yeah, yeah yeah! Who's the strongest now!? Two in a row!

''[Everyone cheers and leaves. Skips stays behind]''

Mordecai: That was awesome, man!

Rigby: It's all in the wrist. And also it's in the muscles.

''[Cut to Skips sitting on the front steps. Pops sits next to him]''

Pops: Hi Skips! You sure did a bang up job at arm wrestling yesterday. You were beating everyone!

Skips: I didn't beat Rigby.

Pops: Yes, he's quite the arm wrestler isn't he?

Skips: I'm not the strongest anymore.

Pops: Boulderdash! You're the strongest person I know. You were just having a bad day. You should go up to Rigby and demand a rematch. Then you'll see who the strongest is. [giggles and walks away]

Skips: Thanks, Pops.

[Cut to Mordecai and Rigby inside playing Guitar Dudes Reunion Tour.]

Mordecai: Here comes the power move! [presses a button on guitar]

[Character on screen starts shredding his guitar]

Mordecai: [laughs] Dude, this is just like playing real guitar!

Rigby: Check this out! [plays guitar behind his head]

[Buzzing sound plays]

Rigby: No!

[Character on screen starts being pelted with bottles]

Mordecai: Dude, dodge the bottles! Up up down down left right left right!

[Skips blocks the television]

Mordecai: Aww what?

Rigby: Come on!

Skips: Rigby! Me, you, rematch.

Rigby: No.

Skips: I said I want a rematch!

Rigby: I'm busy.

[Skips rages and breaks the console in half then exits]

Mordecai: Dude, not cool.

Rigby: Eh. He'll get over it.

[Cut to Skips working out in his room. Benson knocks]

Skips: Come in.

[Enter Mordecai, Rigby and Benson]

Benson: Skips? Skips did you break their video game?

Rigby: Yes, yes he did I already told you!

Benson:  I want to hear it from him!

[Rigby growls]

Skips: Yeah.

Benson: What!? Wow, uh, I'm sorry Skips, but, you're gonna have to pay for it.

Rigby: Hm hm.

Skips: Oh I'll pay for it after Rigby gives me a rematch!

Benson: What? That's what this is about?

Skips: You wouldn't understand.

Benson: [scoffs] Yeah I guess I wouldn't understand.

Rigby: I understand. You just want to lose again. Let's go.

[Skips sets down a chest and puts his arm on it]

Skips: Set 'em up.

[Rigby clasps his hand with Skips']

Benson: Ready? Go!

''[Rigby slams Skips' arm. Skips makes a noise of surprise]''

Benson: Make sure you pay him by the end of the week.

Skips: I will.

Rigby: What was that? I couldn't understand you. I don't speak second place. Make sure you pay me by the end of the week.

''[Exit Mordecai, Rigby and Benson. Skips smashes the chest. Cut to night time, everyone about to leave for 'McHooligan's']''

Muscle Man: Aww, yeah! McHooligan's, round two! [slides down banister]

Hi Five Ghost: [goes with Muscle Man] Shotgun!

Benson: [walks down stairs] I hope you guys got your drink tickets 'coz the drinks are on me up a dollar fifty value!

Pops: [walks down stairs] Splendid, I can't wait to get an aguarita!

Rigby: [walks down stairs] I'm gonna get me an ice on the rocks, woo!

Mordecai: Aww man, my drink tickets!

Benson: Hey Mordecai, let's hustle!

Mordecai: I'll be back in a sec, guys!

[Cut to Mordecai and Rigby's room, Skips is going through Rigby's drawer]

Mordecai: Aww what, Skips? What are you doing?

Skips: Uh, nothing. Uh, going through Rigby's stuff. Rigby, the strongest. There's gotta be a trick.

Mordecai: Dude, Skips, I can't stand to see you like this. Listen. Don't tell him I told you this, but Rigby's been pranking you.

Skips: What!?

M: [picks up drink ticket] Two words: "Playco Armboy". [exits] Look it up.

[Cut to Skips using the computer. ''He watches the Playco Armboy commercial. A father and his son are arm wrestling]''

Father: So, you think you can take on your old man? [slams son and laughs] Easy!

[Son frowns, Playco Armboy appears and son smiles]

Announcer: How to use Playco Armboy! First, put on Playco Armboy! Second, conceal Playco Armboy! Third, sign our legal Playco Armboy waver!

[Father and son are arm wrestling again]

Father: Ready for round two, eh?

SMASH!

Father: [yelps] Aww! That really hurt, son.

Other Announcer: A subsidiary of Yoshimoto Cybernetics!

[''Commercial ends, Skips becomes furious. Montage of Skips training himself and leaving his room. Cut to McHooligan's'']

Benson: Hey Mordecai, what ever happened to Skips?

Mordecai: Uh. He had stuff. To do.

Rigby: Hm hm! Probably resting his old man bones.

[Door slams, Skips appears]

Rigby: OHHHHH! Look who's back for thirds!

[Skips sits down next to Mordecai]

Benson: Don't do it, Skips.

[Skips props his arm up]

Rigby: [props arm up] Say goodnight, gramps.

(Arm wrestling. Skips pulls out Rigby's Playco Armboy and arm wrestles again.)

SMASH!!!!

(End flashback.)

Skips: I'm sorry, Rigby. I'll make it up to you.

Death: [laughs] Well well well. If it ain't old Skips.

[Portal appears and Death rides through on his motorcycle and gets off]

Skips: Death.

Death: [laughs] You haven't changed a bit! So what's the occasion here, Skips? Is that your buddy there? Finally killed someone, eh?

Skips: I want him back. Let's arm wrestle for him. If I win, I keep him. If you win, you can take me instead.

Death: Aww, big old Skips finally coming in for some good old fashion arm wrestling, eh? 'bout time. You've been dodging me for years. Now I get to beat you and take your immortal soul?

[Skips nods]

Death: Deal.

[Death and Skips shake hands. A table appears]

Death: I've been waiting for this day. [takes off jacket to reveal an arm as muscular as Skips' and kisses it] Set 'em up.

Skips: Hm.

''[Death and Skips clasp hands. A referee appears]''

Referee: Ready? Go!

''[Death and Skips arm wrestle. Sparks appear from their combined fist and the table rises in the air. A whirlpool appears in the ground]''

Death: [laughs] Your soul is mine! [laughs and almost slams Skips' arm] Any last words, Skips?

Skips: Two words! Playco Armboy!

Death: Huh?

''[Bright white beam emerges. Skips slams Death's arm''. The room clears]

Death: No, how is this possible!?

Skips: Death, I won. Bring Rigby back and take a hike!

Death: Skips! Mark my words. [get in motorbike] Someday I will have your immortal soul! [makes a portal in the wall and spits Rigby's soul into Rigby's mouth]

''[Rigby coughs and wakes up. Death rides his motorcyle into the portal]''

Skips: Listen Rigby, sorry for, you know, killing you back there. It was unprofessional.

Rigby: Huh? [turns and sees stitches in back] You know what? Water under the bridge. So you ended up cheating death, huh?

Skips: I learned from the best. [lifts up Playco Armboy]

Rigby: Ohhhh!

[Skips and Rigby laugh]

Skips: Seriously though, you shouldn't cheat. I only did it to save your life.

[Cut to Rigby and Skips walking in the hospital hallway]

Rigby: So, everybody thinks I'm dead?

Skips: Yep.

Rigby: Dude! We gotta prank 'em!

Skips: Uh, y'know Rigby, I think I've had enough pranks for today.
