| OOOOOOOHHHHHHH! |
(A lot of time has passed since the Park returned to Earth following three years of being in space. The sun rises as birds chirp and the sprinklers go off. Some pigeons are pecking their food in front of the Snack Shack. The wind blows the banners hanging from the circus tent. Cobwebs are growing on a tree close to the house. Still standing in the middle of the Park is a statue of Pops, also known as "Mega Kranus", who sacrificed himself to save the universe. "Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra begins to play, as we zoom up into The Afterlife. The pearly gates open at 6am, as Pops wakes up and smiles a huge smile. He puts on his clothes, including his hat, and speaks to himself, excitedly)
Pops: Time for another perfect day!
(Outside Pops' house, which is almost identical to his house from Earth, Pops is driving a car made from clouds. He laughs loudly as he drives around into his local town. At the side of the road is a concierge, his father, Mr. Maellard, and two new friends, Benjamin Franklin and Caveman. He waves at them)
Pops: Hello!
(They all wave back)
Franklin: Pops, how are ya?
Concierge: Hey, Pops!
Caveman: Pops, hey!
(Pops turns and waves at another new friend, Gail)
Pops: Hello, Gail!
(Gail is eating soup on her porch)
Gail: Hi, Pops!
(Pops laughs as he suddenly hears the voice of his brother, Anti-Pops, coming from the other direction. He is riding a zipline)
Anti-Pops: Hey, Pops! Come check out the new zipline! It's dangerously fun! (laughs)
(Anti-Pops lets go of the zipline handle and drops into some water)
Pops: Oh, I will! Right after I grab a bite to eat! I'm so glad my evil brother turned good.
(At the Grill 'Em Up Truck, Ajay Maldonaldo is serving the Ulti-Meatum to Jimmy and Leon. Pops also takes a bite of the burger. Later, at a Cheezer's pop-up store, Pops is stuffing a grilled cheese sandwich into his mouth, while Ace Balthazar watches in disgust. At the Apple Fritters store, Johnathan Kimble picks out an apple fritter, ready to eat it. Pops then zooms past him, completely hyper while eating apple fritters. Johnathan sees this and puts his apple fritter back into its box. Pops then speeds through the following arcade games: Hats 4 Sale, Lemonade Stand, Ball of Yarn, Candle Maker, and Deli Dude. As he does this, a soundbite is played from each machine, saying either "You Win!" or "High Score". Pops then goes down the zipline recommended by Anti-Pops, plays some shuffleboard, goes go-karting, and skydives with a parachuting. Pops laughs loudly once again. Pops suddenly stops to speak to himself once again)
Pops: Oop, now time for my favorite activity!
(Pops laughs as he descends through a rollercoaster, and down to his house, where he faceplants into the ground. Pops gets up and continues laughing as he runs into his house. Displayed on his shelf is a VHS tape labelled "Regular Show". Pops grabs the tape and stares at it with a huge smile on his face. He inserts it into his Hanatronic TV. A scene from "Caffeinated Concert Tickets" plays, featuring Pops' friends, Mordecai and Rigby)
Mordecai & Rigby (on-screen): OOOHHH!!!
(Pops laughs. Another scene plays, this time featuring Benson from "The Power")
Benson (on-screen): Now clean up this mess or you're fired!
(Pops laughs. Another scene from "The Power" plays, this time featuring Skips vanishing in mid-air, being sent to the moon. Pops falls back in laughter. Another scene plays, this time featuring Muscle Man and The Hammer from "Rage Against the TV")
Muscle Man (on-screen): Dudes, take my picture wi-
(The Hammer punches Muscle Man, who is instantly slapped in the face by his own breasts. He falls back. Pops continues to laugh wildly. A scene from "Guy's Night" plays on the TV, featuring Mordecai, Rigby, Muscle Man, Hi Five Ghost, and Pops himself, chugging a milk jug)
All but Pops (on-screen): Pops! Pops! Pops! Pops! Pops!
(Pops laughs even harder. Another scene from "The Power" plays, featuring Mordecai, Rigby, Benson, Skips and Pops screaming as they fly through space. Pops' laughing continues on and on. A scene from "Party Pete plays, featuring Mordecai and Rigby)
Mordecai (on-screen): Hummus for these mini-toasts!
Mordecai & Rigby (on-screen): Hummus!
(Pops laughs, then presses rewind on his remote)
Pops: Again! Again!
Mordecai & Rigby (on-screen): Hummus!
(Pops rewinds the tape again and swings back and forth on his chair laughing)
Mordecai & Rigby (on-screen): Hummus!
(The tape begins to glitch. The image is distorted and begins to play slowly. "Mr. Blue Sky" ends, and Pops gasps as he tries to rewind the tape again. Smoke is emitted from the VHS slot on his TV. Pops panics and rapidly presses the eject button. The scenes on the tape quickly glitch to the Regular Show opening titles, still distorted and slow. Pops bangs his fist against the top of his TV three times. Suddenly, loose tape is ejected from the VHS slot. After a beat, the tape container is flung out of the slot and hits Pops in the face. Pops picks up a pile of the tape, and groans sadly. Pops opens up a drawer and pulls out some sticky tape. He sits with the VHS and tries to stick it together, but gets sticky tape stuck to his hand. Pops waves his arm to try and get it off, but it just ends up sticking to his head as well. Pops stands up waving his arms around, and gets tangled up in the tape. He falls back into a cabinet, then falls forward into the tape, which is now stuck on his face. Pops screams as he tries to pull the tape off, but he falls back into the bathroom and hits his head on a mirror cabinet, which opens. He then falls back into the shower lever, which turns on the shower, then stumbles forward, ripping the tape off his face and flinging it across the room. The tape falls into the toilet. Pops looks into the toilet to see the tape completely destroyed)
Pops: Bad show...
(Meanwhile, at Gail's house, she is eating soup, whilst being visited by Jampft, the president of JampftCo. A video of her buying soup is playing on her TV)
Jampft: Now tell me, Gail. What would you say is one of your happiest memories?
Gail: Well, one time I found a deal on nearly-expired packs of chicken tortilla soup. I love re-watching that one.
(The exact moment she just described is playing on the TV)
Gail (on-screen): Two-for-one? Oh, I gotta get this!
Jampft: A beautiful memory worth upgrading for.
(Jampft passes a clipboard and pen to Gail)
Jampft: Just sign here, and -
(Suddenly, Gail's doorbell rings and a knock is heard at the door)
Gail: Ooh, who could that be?
(Gail stands up and heads to the door)
Jampft: You don't wanna miss this deal!
(Jampft groans as Gail answers the door to Pops, soaking wet)
Gail: Oh, Pops! What happened?
Pops: Oh, Gail. My memory tape broke and I can't seem to fix it!
(Jampft plays a tune on a harmonica)
Jampft: Did somebody say "Memory Tape"?
Gail: This is my neighbor, Pops.
(Jampft looks at his clipboard)
Jampft: Pops...Maellard! Ah, yes! I was just about to come see you next. Look at you, you saved me some time by coming to see me!
Pops: Oh, I did?
Jampft: The name's Jampft.
Pops: J-am-pfff-t?
Jampft: Jampft Grimpton. Just another man pushing full time. That's a bit of sales lingo, pushing product, but enough about me. Sounds like you have a problem with your tape.
Pops: Oh, you can fix my tape?
Jampft: Well, in a way. You give me your tape and I'll digitize or transfer all your memories and stream them directly to your TV for instant access. We call it JAMPFT-ing: Joining All Memories and Preserving Faulty Tapes. Your friend, Gail, was just about to sign up. Isn't that right, Gail?
Gail: Oh, what the heck?
(Gail grabs Jampft's pen and signs his clipboard)
Gail: Time to get with the times, I guess!
Jampft: And your tape, please? We can't JAMPFT without it!
Gail: Of course! Where's my head?
(Gail ejects her tape, labelled "Soup Show" from her TV, and brings it to Jampft)
Gail: Now, will I get this back or...?
Jampft: Heh, no!
(Jampft swipes the tape from Gail)
Jampft: There's no need for this cumbersome piece of plastic after the JAMPFTing process.
(Jampft throws Gail's tape into a briefcase with other tapes. He picks up the briefcase and passes Pops the clipboard)
Jampft: Okay, Pops. If you sign right here, we can get you back to watching your memories in no time.
(Pops looks at his tape and whimpers)
Pops: But I like my tape. I don't wanna get rid of it, I just want it fixed.
(Jampft grunts through his teeth while shaking, then suddenly stops and puts his clipboard away)
Jampft: I'm right there with you, Pops! I'm a bit old-school too, so I want you to think about it, and when you change your mind, you just call me right up and we'll go from there. How's that sound?
(Jampft passes Pops a business card)
Pops: Okay.
Jampft: Now, if you'll excuse me. Gotta keep pushing along!
(Jampft leaves Gail's house, playing his harmonica. Pops looks down at the business card, and reads it out loud)
Pops: "JampftCo. The Future of Remembering the Past"?
(Later, Pops visits a Concierge working at a reception desk. He rings the bell stationed on her desk)
Pops: Excuse me, can I get another memory tape?
Concierge: Oh, sorry...They only give you one when you get here. We don't have copies.
Pops: Well, in that case, my tape is broken and I need it fixed! Surely, you understand?
Concierge: Well, us Concierge Workers were brought into existence to do just this, and all our memories are Concierge-related, so I don't exactly get it, but I see that you're sad, and that makes me sad, why don't you try the Record Keeping Department?
Pops: That was a very long sentence, thank you.
(Later, at the Record Keeping Department, Pops parks outside and enters, where a clerk, wearing sunglasses, is sitting back on a chair with his feet up on the counter. Pops approaches him)
Pops: Hello there! I'm looking to get my tape fixed.
(The clerk lifts his sunglasses)
Clerk: Oh, uh...I'm not really trained to do that. We have plenty of other tapes though.
(The clerk points to a shelf holding some employee favorite tapes: "Benj. Franklin Show", "Caveman Show", and "1960s Stunt Show")
Clerk: Like you could check out some classics or some employee favorites, or maybe a new release?
(The clerk holds up a tape labelled "Deez Show", featuring an image of a squirrel holding two nuts)
Clerk: It's exactly what you think it's gonna be.
Pops: Thank you, but I don't want to watch Deez...video. I want to enjoy my tape with my memories.
Clerk: I don't think we have that one, and I can't really fix tapes.
(Pops grabs the clerk and pulls him up close)
Pops: But if my tape can't be fixed, I can't see my friends again! And if I can't see my friends again, I could forget them!
Clerk: Listen, man! There are a few tapes in the back, you can go check to see if there's a copy of yours, heh?
Pops: In...back?
Clerk: Yeah! Back there. I gotta stay out here, 'cause like, I'm swamped.
(The clerk signals to the one customer in the store, VG, who is browsing through a bin of tapes)
VG: You got a copy of Planet Starlight Chasers Excellent?
Clerk: See? Anyway, if you wanna look for yours, you can check in back.
Pops: I think I will.
(Pops lets go of the clerk)
Pops: Thank you, my good man.
(Pops walks through a door and into the back. He is greeted with a huge storage room, featuring countless shelving units containing countless bins holding countless tapes)
Pops: Oh, my...
(Pops spends a lot of time walking through the back, looking around for his tapes. Later, he sees a single tape sat on top of a shelving unit, that appears to be labelled "Regular Show". Pops stares and climbs up the shelving unit. He grabs the tape and disappointed, sees that it is labelled "Regulus Snow", with the subtitle "Accountant to the Accountants")
Pops: No, no, that's not it!
(Pops' leg is standing on Regulus' bin. He stumbles and falls down to the ground, with all of Regulus' tapes fall on top of him. Pops' hand is sticking out of the pile of tapes. Suddenly, his hand is grabbed by a muscular man. Pops emerges from the tapes and gasps)
Pops: Thank you for saving my life, Mister...?
Barry: Barry Sliceman, Pro Disc Golfer!
(Barry spins a disc on his finger, and helps Pops further out of the tapes)
Barry: Well, ex-pro Disc Golfer, I guess. Ever since I got this injury.
(Barry turns his head and lifts his hair to reveal a disc wedged into the back of his neck. Pops winces)
Barry: Word of advice: When your buddy, Kent, is slinging choppers down the fairway, do not get in their way, brother.
Pops: Oh, that's good advice, I suppose. My name is Pops Maellard.
Barry: See ya, Pops Maellard! I got a memory tape to find.
(Barry jumps down from the pile)
Pops: Wait! I'm looking for my memory tape, too!
(Pops jumps down from the pile)
Pops: Maybe we can work together? Two heads are better than one!
Barry: And in your case, brother, more like five heads! Am I right?
(Pops begins laughing hysterically)
Barry: I'm right!
(Barry joins Pops in the laughter. A montage begins of Pops and Barry searching for their tapes. They search through several tapes, but to no avail)
Pops: We've been running around and search-
(Barry suddenly lifts his hand up, accidentally slapping Pops in the face. They stop in their tracks as Barry whispers to Pops)
Barry: Shh! We're being watched.
(Pops whimpers. Barry then shouts out loud)
Barry: What's that, Pops!? My laces are untied!?
(Barry gets down on his knee to tie his shoe)
Barry: I totally could've tripped or something. That could've been really -
(Barry unveils a disc from his bag and throws it in the direction of where they're being watched)
Barry: Tomahawk!
(The disc is caught by a giant man made from VHS tapes, who reels the disc in)
Pops: Who are you?
VHS Man: Who I am is not important. But you...
(The VHS Man moves in on Pops)
VHS Man: You are looking for something...Pops Maellard!
Pops: Yes, I'm looking for my bin to find my tape.
VHS Man: (laughs) To uncover the secrets of the bins, you must remember this tune.
(The VHS Man sings)
VHS Man: A-B-C-D-E-F-G...
(Pops and Barry talk to each other)
Pops: Alphabetical?
Barry: I wanna say alphabetical.
(The VHS Man continues to sing)
VHS Man: Figure out my sequence and...
Pops & Barry: Alphabetical!
VHS Man: Yes, alphabetical!
Pops: Oh, I knew it was that!
Barry: Yeah, the letters were sung in order, yep. Mhm.
VHS Man: But you must make haste, lest your memories be...JAMPFTed!
(The VHS Man points behind Pops and Barry, then climbs up a shelving unit to leave. Pops and Barry look around the shelving unit behind them, and gasp as they see a large machine with multiple screens and VHS slots labeled "JAMPFTCO". Multiple guards are operating the machine. One is holding Gail's tape, "Soup Show", and inserts it into a VHS slot)
Gail (on-screen): Two-for-one? Oh, I gotta get this!
(As the video plays, it becomes more and more distorted until there is nothing left. The screen now simply displays text reading "JAMPFTED.", followed by text reading "ANNIHILATING TAPE HUSKS...". The tape is shredded at the top of the machine, with tiny tape bits scattering over the ground)
Pops: This doesn't seem good.
Barry: Pops, check it out!
(Barry passes Pops his futuristic telescope. Pops looks through it and sees a bin on the adjacent shelving unit labelled "Maellard, Pops")
Pops: (gasps) My bin!
Barry: We gotta move now. How are we gonna get passed them?
(Pops lowers the telescope)
Pops: Leave it to Pops.
(A JampftCo Guard suddenly hears something fall to the ground near him. He gasps and turns to see four lollipops on the ground)
Guard 3: Oh, sick.
(The guard picks up the lollipops. At the top of the machine, another guard sees him and shouts)
Guard 1: Hey, yo! Are those unwrapped, old-timey lollipops that you found on the ground?!
Guard 3: Yeah!
(All the other JampftCo Guards excitedly run towards him, murmuring. Meanwhile, Pops and Barry sneak past them and reach the shelving unit with Pops' bin. Barry bends forwards and Pops jumps onto his back, with his legs wrapped around Barry's neck. Barry moves Pops towards his bin. Pops whimpers as he looks down into his bin, to see it completely empty)
Pops: No, no, no, no! It's empty!
Barry: (whispering) Are you sure there's nothing up there?
(Pops pulls his bin away and drops it to the ground. Behind where his bin was is a box)
Pops: Wait! I see something else!
(Pops pulls the box forward. Inside are 24 new tapes, all labeled "Regular Show")
Pops: (gasps) It's more tapes! I've never seen these before!
Barry: Grab them! We don't have much time!
(Meanwhile, the JampftCo Guards are each holding a lollipop, with Guard 2 licking his)
Guards 1,3&4: Lick! Lick! Lick! Lick!
(Pops and Barry get down to the ground. Pops is holding the box of tapes)
Barry: Oh, I got the perfect thing!
(Barry pulls a giant fanny pack out of his pocket)
Barry: Check out this huge sack!
Pops: Ooh!
(Pops zips up the bag and straps it around himself. Now, Guard 1 is licking his lollipop)
Guards 2,3&4: Lick! Lick! Lick! Lick!
(As Pops and Barry move to the exit, they see a video playing on the JAMPFT Machine screen. It's the tape that Barry has been looking for, featuring himself and his friend, Kent)
Barry (on-screen): Nice play, brother!
Kent (on-screen): Dude. Thanks, dude.
(Barry looks up at the screen)
Barry: Kent?
(In the video, Barry and Kent jump up and throw their discs from under their legs)
Barry & Kent (on-screen): Blink-o!
(Kent's disc scores. Watching the tape, Barry tears up)
Barry: (gasps) That's the memory tape I've been looking for!
Kent (on-screen): Yeah, aced that Par Four!
(Barry & Kent high-five in the video)
Barry: We were so young. Just a couple of dudes whippin' our disks out.
Kent (on-screen): Dude, I'm gonna remember this forever!
(The screen is distorted and turns static. Text then appears reading "JAMPFTED.", followed by "ANNIHILATING TAPE HUSKS...", and the tape is shredded)
Barry: Kent! NO!
(Guard 2 is licking his lollipop)
Guards 1,3&4: Lick! Lick!
(They hear Barry screaming)
Guard 1: What the?
(The guard sees Pops and Barry)
Guard 1: Hey!
(The guards charge towards Barry and Pops. Barry screams, then stands up and throws discs at them)
Barry: Undercut! Buzzcut! Jeri curl! Combover!
(He knocks out the guards)
Pops: Barry! That was incredible!
(Barry holds Pops' shoulders)
Barry: Pops, you need to run. No matter how mightily they are thrown, flying discs are still made of plastic. It won't be long until they wake up.
(Barry pulls a disc out of his bag)
Barry: Pops, I want you to have this.
(Barry cracks the disc and it glows green)
Pops: A glow in the dark, non-branded flying disc?
Barry: It's a beacon. Follow it, and it'll take you home! And...go!
(Barry throws the beacon, just as the guards awaken. Pops chases after the beacon)
Pops: I'll never forget you, Barry!
(The guards surround Barry)
Barry: This is for Kent!
(Barry throws a disc at Guard 3, who dodges it)
Barry: And for Pops!
(Barry throws a disc at Guard 1, who dodges it)
Barry: And that soup lady!
(Barry throws another disc at Guard 3, who dodges it. The guards all close in on Barry as he cries a battle cry. Meanwhile, Pops is chasing the beacon through the storage room. It ricochets off a wall, then bounces on the ground, leading Pops to the exit, where it stops on the ground, and loses its glow. Pops opens the door and escapes, as he is being watched by the VHS Man. Pops returns home in his car. He slams the door behind him and closes his curtains. He places the broken VHS on a shelf, then unzips the giant fanny pack. He pulls a blue tape from the sack and gasps as he looks at it. He inserts it into the VHS Slot on his TV. As the video begins to play, Pops gasps and his pupils inflate in amazement. A whole new series of adventures begins)
End of "Fix That Tape"
