In Workaholics season 2 episode 5, titled "Old Man Ders," the trio of best friends Blake, Anders, and Adam are back with another wacky adventure at Telamericorp. This time, the focus is on Anders who becomes obsessed with the idea of aging gracefully after he overhears a group of seniors talking about their "golden years."
Determined to stay youthful and active, Anders is inspired to take up a new hobby: rollerblading. However, his attempts to relive his youth on rollerblades turn out to be a disaster as he repeatedly falls, trips, and draws attention to himself in the office. Meanwhile, Adam and Blake set out to help Anders fulfill his dream of being a "young spruce" by enlisting the help of an expert who can teach him the ways of the skateboard.
As Anders' obsession with aging takes over his life, he becomes increasingly isolated from his friends, co-workers, and even his own body. He starts to embrace his newfound identity as an old man, even wearing a prosthetic nose to make himself look more elderly. However, his plan to become older backfires when he realizes that he's missed out on the joys of youth like eating sweets, going to concerts, and dating.
As the episode progresses, the storyline takes a hilarious turn as Anders realizes that he's been duped by a group of seniors who are actually con artists trying to scam him out of his money. In true Workaholics fashion, the trio sets out to get revenge on the con artists and teach them a lesson they won't forget.
Throughout the episode, viewers are treated to the same zany humor and over-the-top antics that have made Workaholics a fan favorite over the years. From Adam's irreverent jokes to Blake's deadpan delivery, the show's signature style is on full display in "Old Man Ders."
Overall, Workaholics season 2 episode 5 is a hilarious and entertaining installment of the popular comedy series. By focusing on the theme of aging and youth, the episode offers a unique perspective on what it means to grow old. Fans of the show will love the non-stop laughs, while newcomers will appreciate the show's unconventional humor and zany characters.
