Until now.
Channel 6
Leading Anchor Del Hanlon
interviews the band
for the first time
with the hardest-hitting
questions.
All their secrets finally
revealed tonight at 8:00.
BOTH:
Ohhhhh!
Mercury Heat!
I can't believe Margaret
got us special press passes,
compliments of Channel 6!
Mordecai and Rigby!
You took a DTV
from the Dome-itory!
DT-what?
DTV.
You know, that very expensive
piece of machinery
parked outside.
Oh, yeah.
We were gonna use it
for a minute.
Is that so?
Well, I've got surveillance
photos that say otherwise!
[♪♪♪]
Oh, boy.
[CHUCKLING]
Can it!
I am so sorry for this,
Dr. Langer.
The DTVs are meant for
scientific research.
They could have ruined
weeks of data.
There was a line there,
and your guys crossed it.
That's why I'm enacting
a 24-hour lockdown.
What?
No way!
And Benson here
is gonna make sure
you don't leave
the house.
'Cause if you do,
he's fired.
What?
You can't do that!
Oh, yeah?
Who's gonna stop me?
You?
Uh...
That's what I thought.
Keep them in line or we'll
keep them in line for you!
[GROANS]
I can't believe this!
Come on, Benson. You know
these dome rules are ridiculous.
Yeah. You're just too afraid
to do anything about it.
I don't want to hear it.
Lockdown! 24 hours!
Starting now!
Get inside!
Aw, dude!
There is no way
we're missing Mercury Heat.
[SLURPS]
No one's getting past me.
No sir.
Thanks for helping us out,
Pops.
Of course!
I've just about had it
with these dome rules.
They're absolute rubbish,
if you ask me.
How are you gonna distract
Benson?
Leave that to me.
[DISCORDANT NOTES]
Wow, Pops.
That's very
impressive.
I've never had
a single lesson.
But I think my ears
are tired now, so--
Well, then.
Let's wake them up!
[DISCORDANT NOTES]
[♪♪♪]
Best spot ever!
Rubber baby buggy bumpers.
Rubber baby buggy bumpers.
Look!
Here they come!
[WHOOSH]
BOTH:
Whooooa!
[♪♪♪]
[COUGHS]
Wow.
What an entrance.
Del Hanlon, reporter
on Channel 6 News.
Hey.
Dude, I can't believe
we almost missed this.
Good thing
our plan is foolproof.
[♪♪♪]
[SNORING]
[SNORING CONTINUES]
Hmm.
Yeah.
You better sleep.
Good evening. We have
a very special treat tonight.
After years
of avoiding the press,
rock sensation Mercury Heat
is with us for
our very exclusive interview.
Del Hanlon reports.
Del.
Margaret, I got to say,
it's getting pretty warm up here
'cause these guys are
bringing in the heat.
Or should I say
Mercury Heat!
[DEL LAUGHS]
[CONTINUES LAUGHING]
You know, 'cause, uh--
[CLEARS THROAT]
Now, you guys have been
performing together
for a while now.
The fans must know--
do you like it?
Yeah.
Incredible!
Now,
another burning question
for all the true Mercury Heads
out there.
Your performances
are pretty loud.
How is that on your ears?
Aah! Dude, what kind
of question was that?
What was
that?
We actually hear
very well.
You got some
questions for us?
Actually, we do.
Like, why does the
four-minute-long guitar solo
in the song "Flames Forever"
end so abruptly?
Yeah.
Is it true it's because
the mysterious fifth member
died while recording it?
I want answers!
Finally.
Some real questions
You. Out.
You two. In.
[BOTH GASP]
And, scene.
[MUNCHING]
Hmm.
I can't believe
Mordecai and Rigby
said that to me earlier.
"Meh, Benson,
you're just too afraid
to do anything about
the dome rules."
Who do those guys
think they are?
I'm their boss,
for crying out loud!
I don't think you're mad
at Mordecai and Rigby.
I think you're just mad
at Dr. Langer
'cause he's technically
the boss now and you're not.
Oh,
that's completely not true.
[MACHINE BEEPS]
Oh, great.
Now there's a malfunction
with the dome door
and I have to go fix it.
Skips, make sure
Mordecai and Rigby
don't leave
the house.
That's another great question,
um, what was your name again?
Mordec--
Pizza for only $5!
What was that?
Oh, uh...
they're selling
more pizza for $5.
Huh. What a deal.
We'll order some
when I get back.
Those two have really
done it this time.
And that's when
I realized, like,
I wasn't mad at the world,
you know?
I was mad at myself.
[CRIES]
There, there, Vince.
Cut the cameras!
Cut the cameras!
That was the best interview
anyone's ever given us.
So, want to come party with us
on our private jet?
BOTH:
Yeah, we do!
Lousy dome
scientists.
Don't tell me
what to do.
Huh?
[♪♪♪]
[GROANS]
Mordecai and Rigby!
[GRUNTS]
Aah!
[SCREAMS]
Oh, dear.
Yeah, so I want to
graduate high school
to impress my Dad,
you know?
[GROANS]
I know what you mean, man.
All the fans in the world
can't replace a father's love.
Hey.
I know what'll cheer you up.
Hey, Stan. Can we get
a barrel roll, please?
Anything for Mercury Heat.
ALL:
Whoa!
ALL:
Whoo!
Again! Again!
Dude. This is seriously
the best night of my life.
[CELLPHONE RINGS, VIBRATES]
Hello?
The jig is up!
Benson just sealed off
the entrance to the dome!
Aw, man. Pops, you stall him
till we get back.
Benson's onto us! He's gonna
find out we're not at the park!
What?! There's no way
we can get back in time!
There might be a way.
You ever wear
one of these?
Rah!
[GRUNTS]
Pops?!
[SNORING]
[GRUNTS]
What's going on here?
Oh, Benson!
I'm, uh--
I'm just as surprised as you!
They snuck out!
I knew it!
I'm gonna fire them
before Dr. Langer fires me!
[♪♪♪]
So, once we get close
to the dome,
spread your wings and coast
through the moon door.
I don't know about this!
Of course
you do!
Just follow your
dreams! [GRUNTS]
[SCREAMING]
Whoo!
Rock on!
Look out!
Ow!
Aah!
[BOTH GROAN]
BENSON:
Mordecai and Rigby!
I know you're out here!
Dude!
Benson's coming!
Quick!
Down here!
[BOTH PANTING]
I think we lost him.
BENSON:
Mordecai! Rigby!
Where are you?
Come on! Hurry!
[GROWLING]
Wait. What's that sound?
It's coming from down there.
[GROWLING]
[GROWLS]
[BOTH SCREAM]
[BOTH PANTING]
[GRUNTS]
There you are!
Benson!
Something's down there!
There's a huge monster!
It looked right at us!
That's the lamest excuse
I've ever heard.
Benson!
Maybe you misunderstood me.
When I told you to keep them
in the house for 24 hours,
I meant it!
I mean, wow.
All you had to do
was literally
keep them in one place
for a day, but no.
You couldn't even do that.
Now they're out here
wearing those stupid costumes.
So, congratulations,
Mordecai and Rigby!
You're fired!
BOTH: What?
Hey.
If anyone's gonna
fire them, it's me!
BOTH:
Yeah!
I don't tell you people
how to do your job,
whatever that may be!
So you certainly don't
have the right
to tell me how to do my job!
[WHOOSH]
This is my park.
They're my employees.
You people need to back off
and quit breathing down my neck!
Do I make myself clear?
Um...crystal.
Crystal clear as day.
[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY]
It looks like you got
these two under control.
I'll just leave you be.
Aah!
[GRUNTS]
Stupid jetpack.
BOTH:
Whooooa!
We're sorry we made you
look bad, Benson.
Yeah, we're sorry.
But seriously, though,
that was so cool
how you told Langer off
like that.
Hey.
What do you expect?
I'm the boss.
And as your boss,
it's my decision
not to fire you.
BOTH:
Whoo!
For now.
BOTH:
Yeah!
Now, take off
those costumes.
You two look ridiculous.
[♪♪♪]
They're ready.
And I'm going
to the hospital.
