| - (Starts with Mordecai and Rigby walking into their room) Rigby: So he thinks the doctor can sew it back on? Mordecai: Yeah, Muscle Man thinks so. He said it happened to his brother, too. Rigby: (Whistles) Man, he's lucky. Mordecai: Tell me about it. Anyway, it's getting pretty late; I'm gonna call it. (Mordecai turns around, pulling back the blankets. A soda is heard being opened, and he turns to see Rigby drinking it.) Mordecai: Are you seriously drinking a soda right now? Rigby: (Burps) Yeah, you want one? Mordecai: Dude, what? We'll be up all night and we have to work tomorrow. Rigby: Nah, don't you watch the news? It's Daylight Savings tonight. Mordecai: So? Rigby: So, the clocks get set back an hour and we get to sleep in tomorrow morning! Mordecai: Oh, yeah. Well, in that case: Soda me, broda me! (Rigby throws him a soda) Mordecai and Rigby: (Rapping) WHOO! Have a ball, baby. Let the party begin, it's Daylight Saving's when we get to sleep in! (They open their sodas, spraying each other. Scene goes to the next morning. Mordecai and Rigby are walking to their designated area.) Mordecai: (Yawning) Dude, I feel so rested. Rigby: Me, too. Man, I wish every day was daylight savings. (They walk to the house where a meeting is taking place) Benson: Well, look who decided to show up. An hour late. (Mordecai and Rigby laugh) Rigby: They don't know. I guess you guys haven't heard of a little something called Daylight Savings. (The others don't say anything) Mordecai: Haha, yeah. Technically, you guys showed up an hour early. (Rigby laughs) Benson: (Benson mocks Rigby's laughter) Technically, Daylight Savings isn't until tonight. Rigby: Really? Huh. Mordecai: Oops. Rigby: Whatever, dude; it's just an hour. Benson: Oh, is it? Well, I guess you won't care that it's an hour you aren't getting paid for. Mordecai and Rigby: Aw, what? Mordecai: C'mon Benson, what's the big deal? Benson: Being on time is the big deal. This is a business we're trying to run. If everyone showed up late like you two, this whole park would fall apart. Mordecai: It was an honest mistake, Benson. It's not like you've never been late to work. Benson: Actually, I haven't. Because, unlike you two, I take my job seriously. And since you're having so much trouble keeping track of time, you can be in charge of setting the clocks back for the real Daylight Savings Time. Mordecai: Ugh, fine. Come on Rigby, let's get this over with. Benson: Hold it, not yet. You're gonna do it when the rest of the world does it: at two in the morning. Mordecai: What? That doesn't even make any sense. What does it matter if everyone's on the same time? Rigby: Yeah, what difference does it make? Benson: Are you seriously making me defend the right time? You either set the park clocks back at two in the morning like everyone else, or you're fired! Mordecai: Dude, what time is it? Rigby: It's 10 o' clock. That's like 4 more hours! Mordecai: I still can't believe Benson is making us wait until 2 to set the clocks back. Rigby: I know! How does it even matter if the clocks are set to exactly the right time? Mordecai: It doesn't! He acts like he'd be able to tell if the clocks were a little off! He wouldn't be able to tell. Rigby: He totally wouldn't be able to tell! Rigby: You know what, though? Technically we agreed to set all the clocks at the same time... but we didn't say anything about setting the clocks at the right time. Mordecai: What are you thinking? Rigby: How about we do what Benson says and set all the clocks back for Daylight Savings, but first, we set every clock in the park to the same wrong time, just to show Benson and everybody else that it doesn't even matter? Mordecai: And then we'll come up to Benson in the middle of the day tomorrow and be like, "Hey Benson, all the clocks are wrong! You had no idea, did you?!" Rigby: I can't wait to see the look on his face when we tell him! Mordecai: Man, this is gonna be awesome! Mordecai: (Angrily) Aw, come on, dude! I gotta wash my face, now! (Song: The Clock Song ) Rigby: Well, I think that's every clock in the park. Mordecai: Heh, heh. This is gonna feel like such a- oh. Wait. This isn't gonna work unless we change the clocks in Benson's apartment. Rigby: Coast is clear. I'm pretty sure Benson keeps his spare apartment keys in his office. Mordecai: Okay, there's only one more clock in the house. Moment of truth: Are we bad enough dudes to teach Benson a lesson? Rigby: Heck yeah, we are! Both: Hmm! Hmm! Benson: Huh? Benson (mutters): Fine, I'll eat around it, then. (Drifts back to sleep) Both: (Chuckle) Yes, we did it! Haha! Benson: So, the mower's fine, car needs new tires...(Notices Modecai and Rigby) Are you two actually the first ones here? Mordecai: Mmm, yeah we are. Rigby: We figured it was about time we started acting responsibly Benson: Well, good. I'm actually glad to see you guys take a little initiative for once. Rigby: Well, it had to happen eventually. Mordecai: Haha, yeah. It was only a matter of time. Benson: Ok. Now that everyone is here, let's get started. Some teens tipped over the porta potties again so someone's gonna hav- Pops: Oh, good show! Benson: Uh, what is it, Pops? Pops: It's the songbirds. (Chuckles) They usually don't come visit me until the afternoon! Benson: Ummm...oh. I see. Well, next on the list is.... Benson (continued): ...is uhh... Garbage Man #1: Hey, yo. Mickey! How many bags you lugging over there? Mickey: I got four stinky bags! What do you care? Garbage Man #1: I'm just trying to make polite conversation, you lousy mug! Jeez! Benson: That's weird. Garbage pickup isn't usually until eleven. And come to think of it, it's alarmingly hot for nine in the morning. Something's not...quite..(Sprinklers start hitting Benson) Gah! Why are the sprinklers going off two hours early? Mordecai: We seet all the clocks to the wrong time and nobody even noticed! Everyone showed up two hours late today. Both: Whooaaaaaa! Rigby: We got you good, Benson! Mordecai: And it was business as usual. Rigby: Yeah! We told you it didn't matter if everyone was on the right time. Besides, time's just an abstract concept, anyway. It's not like anything bad is actually gonna-- (Rigby screams as the house starts shaking) Pops: Goodness, the park is floating! Muscle Man: I'm gonna hurl, bro. Rigby: LET ME OFF! Benson: What did you two do?! Mordecai: Nothing! Honest! Well, something, but... Rigby: We set every clock in the park back three hours to mess with everyone! Mordecai: It was just supposed to be a harmless prank! Benson: This doesn't look harmless to me! How on earth are we gonna fix this?! Skips: Mordecai, Rigby, you've made a terrible mistake! When you changed every clock in the park, you officially changed the park's time zone. Rigby: What does that even mean?! Skips: It means that unless we can change every clock back to the right time, the park is gonna relocate to the new time zone. That means it's gonna set down somewhere in the middle of the ocean, and I don't think this rock is gonna float! Rigby: Jeez, I always knew the park would sink, but I didn't think it would happen like this! Benson: Nothing is sinking on my watch! Mordecai: Benson, look out! Benson: Alright, everyone! Reset all the clocks in the park! Mordecai: Hurry! Pops: Bad show! Hi Five Ghost: Muscle Man! Rigby: Why isn't it working?! Skips: You must resest all of them! All of them! Hi Five Ghost: (pointing) Everybody look! Mordecai: Oh no! Benson's apartment! Benson: What? You guys changed the clocks in my apartment? Rigby: Sorry, man. It wouldn't have worked if we didn't change-- Benson: Aaaaah! How are we supposed to get over there?! Pops: Get in! Muscle Man: You got this, bros! Rigby: We're setting down in the time zone! Benson: Come on! I have a key! Benson: That's all of 'em! Mordecai: No! The park! Thomas: They're never gonna make it! Benson: What are you guys forgeting?! Mordecai: I don't know! (he sees Rigby's watch set wrong) Rigby, your wa- (drown) Rigby: ♪This is the clock song, we're setting all the clocks wrong-♪ Mordecai: Not now, dude.
