Mordecai and Rigby are back with an all-new adventure on Regular Show season 2 episode 16. This episode, entitled "Do Me a Solid," finds the two friends engaging in a game of "solas" in which they compete to outdo each other in performing outrageous favors. When Rigby goes too far in his attempts to "even the score" with Mordecai, the two find themselves locked in a never-ending cycle of ridiculous tasks.
The episode opens with Mordecai and Rigby lazing around the park, as usual. While trying to decide what to do with their day, they stumble upon a forgotten game from their childhood called "solas." The friends quickly become engrossed in the game, which involves performing a favor for the other person and demanding a "solid" in return. As they begin to compete, the favors become increasingly silly and absurd.
Rigby soon realizes that Mordecai is winning the game, and becomes determined to turn the tables. He sets out to complete an outrageous favor that will give him the upper hand, but his plan backfires when Mordecai makes a seemingly impossible request in return.
Refusing to be outdone, Rigby sets out to fulfill Mordecai's demand, and the two quickly become embroiled in a cycle of escalating favors. From washing the dishes with their feet to performing a "magic trick" that involves making a sandwich disappear, the friends are soon engaging in increasingly ridiculous tasks.
As the favors become more and more ridiculous, the episode takes on a surreal, dreamlike quality. The animation becomes more abstract and exaggerated, with the characters morphing and stretching in strange and unexpected ways. The world around them seems to bend and warp in response to their absurd actions.
Amidst all the craziness, the friends begin to feel a sense of exhaustion and frustration. They realize that their game has gone too far and that they need to find a way to break the cycle. In a moment of clarity, Mordecai realizes that the only way to end the game is to perform a final favor that is so outrageous that no one could possibly top it.
What follows is a wild and hilarious sequence that involves Mordecai enlisting the help of all his friends to fulfill his final request. The resulting "solid" is one of the most memorable moments in the show's history, and sets the stage for even more absurd adventures to come.
Overall, "Do Me a Solid" is a classic episode of Regular Show that fully embraces the show's wacky, surreal humor. It's a perfect example of the type of humor that has made the show such a beloved cult classic, and is sure to delight fans both old and new.
