Regular Show (2009–2017): Season 7, Episode 12 - Just Friends - full transcript
After Rigby invites Eileen for his big brothers karate presentation, Mordecai gets concerned and worried when hanging out with Margaret.
[♪♪♪]
In the battleground
of the future, you'll need...
Laser-sharp vision,
laser-fast reflexes.
[PANTING, GRUNTS]
And most of all, you'll need
to know how fire a laser!
Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew!
[ROBOTIC VOICE]
Critical damage!
Beep, beep!
[IMITATES POWERING DOWN]
[ALL LAUGHING]
Aw, yeah! who's ready
for Laser-pocalypse?
That's so cool you got
a four-for-one pass.
Yeah, Laser-pocalypse
gave them to us
after I did that piece:
"Laser Tag,
Fun Game or Funnest Game?"
This is gonna be fun! It's been
so long since we hung out.
[PHONE RINGS]
Yeah?
Let me guess, you forgot.
Forgot what?
Your brother's Judo ceremony!
Taekwondo, Sherm.
Whatever!
Oh, is that tonight?
Don't you use the "was
that tonight?" excuse on me.
I taught you that!
Now, look...
If I gotta be here,
you gotta be here!
All right, all right!
Your dad? Tell him I said hi.
Eileen says hi.
Hi, Eileen!
Hi, Eileen!
ALL:
Hi, Eileen!
Ugh! I gotta go to Don's
Taekwon-dumb thing tonight
for his stupid black belt.
Oh, that's right.
I embroidered this celebratory
headband for him.
[♪♪♪]
I think it could
use more dragons.
Come on. Don't want
to keep Sherm waiting.
[GROANS]
Rigby, can I talk
to you for a sec?
Dude! What the heck?
You can't leave me
with Margaret.
It's fine. You're
hanging out as friends.
I don't know if
she's cool with that.
Are you okay
being alone with Mordecai?
I think so.
We haven't hung out
in a while, so...
So...?
Hey, whatever happens, happens.
Well, either way...
BOTH:
Be strong.
This is familiar, right?
Yeah, last time
we were at the movies
together, we were...
[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY]
But tonight, we're friends
on a fun night out.
Heh-heh, right.
Margaret Smith reporting live
on location of a fun night out.
Uh... No cameras.
[BOTH LAUGH]
[BOTH SIGH]
Okay, let's see
what we got here.
Hmm...
Hmm...
Ooh! I've heard good things
about Lovey Shovey.
[GROANS]
How about...that one?
Carter and Briggs, Heavily
Armed: The Violencetown Files?
All right.
Yo! Got some popcorn.
Nice!
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
MARGARET:
It's starting.
MAN [IN MOVIE]:
Carter...Briggs...7...
Heavily Armed...
[GUN COCKS, GUNFIRE]
[ACTION MUSIC PLAYS]
Whoo! Yeah.
Yes!
All right!
[MECHANICAL CLUNK,
MOTOR SLOWS]
Wha--?
[AUDIENCE SHOUTING]
Sorry, everybody.
Our print of
Carter and Briggs 7
has just
spontaneously combusted.
[ALL BOOING]
In its place, we will screen
Carter and Briggs 6:
The Heart-Shaped Badge.
Enjoy!
[FILM WHIRRING]
[FUNKY MUSIC PLAYS]
Ooh! I've never seen
this one.
[CARIBBEAN MUSIC PLAYS]
Ah, Vacation.
No crime, no guns.
Briggs, there goes
that cute waitress again.
[GROANS]
Don't worry, Carter.
Over the next three
and a half hours,
I'll help you get with her.
She definitely
still likes you.
All you gotta do
is give her a sign.
[GASPS]
I think I've seen this one.
Let's go.
Okay...
[♪♪♪]
[TIRES SCREECHING]
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Nothing romantic here.
Dudes driving fast,
fumes, noisy engines.
What's that?
Exactly.
ANNOUNCER:
If I could have
your attention.
Tonight ain't just any night
here at Kartin' Safari,
'cause tonight's
my 15-year anniversary
to my beautiful Mary-Lee.
Ain't nobody make
my engine rev like you, darlin'.
I love you, baby!
I love you, Wayne!
In honor
of this blessed occasion,
for the rest of the night,
it'll be "Laps Fer Lovers."
So strap in and snuggle up.
Uh, I don't know.
It looks pretty tight.
I call driver's seat!
Your turn, stringbean.
Come on, Mordecai.
Let's hit the track.
Oh! Now, don't be shy.
She won't bite!
Aah!
Go ahead, now.
Scooch together.
[GRUNTING]
[GRUNTS]
Uh, maybe try
putting your arm around him?
Like this?
Now pull his leg in.
Uh... I need to go
to the bathroom.
[♪♪♪]
[CROWD CHEERING]
WOMAN:
Yeah! Take him down!
Now, there's a son
I can be proud of!
[PHONE RINGS]
Yeah?
Dude, this whole "friends" thing
is not working out.
What? Why?
I'm trying to do friend stuff,
and it keeps turning romantic.
Awesome!
No, not awesome.
Margaret's still into me.
Sure, sure.
I need a break from the drama.
You do what you gotta do.
Oh! here comes
the best part!
Hey, man, I gotta go, but have
fun with Margaret tonight.
[CROWD CHEERING]
ALL [CHANTING]:
Don! Don! Don! Don!
♪ Rollin' hard with my boys

[TIRES SCREECH]
Whoa! Whoa, Mordecai!
Uh, so...
See any place you wanna eat?
Oh, hey!
There's Steak Me Amadeus.
I don't know.
Last time didn't go so well.
Right.
Or...Mr. Yakihana-sama.
That place where they
grill the food in front of you?
Isn't it really smoky
in there?
You can barely see
the person sitting next to you.
Works for me.
[BRAKES SQUEAK]
[♪♪♪]
So, where should we sit?
How about...there?
Uh, the one
with the super-old chef
in unflatteringly
harsh lighting?
Yeah, the one right by
the bathroom. Let's go.
[TOILET FLUSHES]
[SNORING]
[CLEARS THROAT]
Hai! I am Daisuke.
Pleased to serve you tonight.
Eh? Eh?
[SPATULA CLATTERS]
So...let me guess.
[SIZZLES]
Anniversary?
What? no!
Aha.
First date.
Oh, n-n-n-n-n-n-no.
What is this?
I see one boy and one girl.
We are
a boy and a girl,
but we're
boy and girl friends.
Ha, ha...
I mean --
Sound like
you don't know what you are.
Tell you what, I will do
the romantic show
for you free of charge.
And whatever
happens, happens.
No, no, no,
no, no --
[GULPS]
Hey, what the --
I said no --
[COUGHS]
I could silence you
with shrimp all night.
It's just dinner,
Mordecai.
Yes, keep up romantic farce
just for dessert.
Ugh, fine.
But only 'cause I'm --
[GULPS]
Hungry.
[♪♪♪]
That's it!
Why does the whole universe
want us to get together?
You noticed it too?
I've been keeping track
of the weird stuff.
I'm a reporter.
What could it mean?
I like lists. Sorry.
[SIGHS]
What is going on, Margaret?
What do you want
to be going on?
Wow. You two
are pretty messed up.
I only know you for one hour,
and already, I'm tired
of the "will they
or won't they" tension.
BOTH: Sorry.
What if there was a way
to see what would happen
if you got together?
Wouldn't your choice
be clear then? Eh?
An onion?
It's not the onion
that is clever.
It is the sauce.
[♪♪♪]
Look at the happy couple.
Whoa. It's us.
[LAUGHS]
Margaret,
will you marry me?
Yes!
Sweet!
Our very own houseboat!
ALL:
Whoa!
We have to be
fiscally responsible.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Mallory!
Don't forget your lunch.
Are you carpooling
today?
DAISUKE:
Your children will
become a pro video-game team
and support you
well into old age.
And finally,
after 50 wonderful
years together,
you die peacefully.
BOTH:
Uh...
You...don't like?
It's just a lot
to take in.
Margaret,
you're really cool,
and our future looks
like it could be cool too,
but after seeing all that,
I'm sure of what I want now.
I think it would be best
if we were just friends.
[SIGHS]
I am so relieved
to hear you say that.
I thought I knew
what I wanted,
but we're still young,
Mordecai.
And I'm definitely
not ready for all that.
I mean,
I have a career.
I think
I just want to...
BOTH:
Live in the moment.
Take it easy right now.
It's best for both of us.
[DAISUKE CLEARS THROAT]
Thanks for wasting my time.
Am I going to have to throw
this couples sundae in trash?
Last chance.
Couple? Just friends?
Couple?
Just friends?
BOTH:
Just friends.
[♪♪♪]
I am okay with that.
Now, take the soft-serve cones
of friendship.
Would you like
the sprinkles of friendship?
Yes!
Yeah!
[GRUNTS]
This has been a great
friends' night out.
Agreed.
Separate checks, when you ready.
Mordo.
What is it, Margie?
They're just friends!
Do you think they can
really be just friends forever?
Only time will tell.
Let's get back
to our retirement.
BOTH:
Mwah!
