Workaholics season 4 episode 1, titled "Orgazmo Birth," opens with the gang in their office discussing their latest project. Adam has come up with an idea for a new video game called "Orgazmo," where players can simulate giving birth to babies. The gang is all in on the idea, but they quickly realize they have no idea how to develop a video game.
Determined to make the game a reality, the gang enlists the help of a professional game developer named Topher. They meet with him at a local coffee shop, where he gives them a crash course in programming and game design. However, the gang quickly becomes distracted by their own personal problems.
Blake is still heartbroken over his breakup with Jillian, and he's desperate to win her back. Ders is struggling with his own relationship issues, as his girlfriend has just dumped him for being too boring. Meanwhile, Adam is dealing with his own existential crisis, wondering if he's wasting his life on meaningless projects.
Despite these distractions, the gang manages to make progress on the game. They start developing characters, designing landscapes, and writing code. However, they soon realize that they've created a game that's far more disturbing than they intended.
As the game takes shape, it becomes clear that it's less about childbirth and more about a bizarre, psychedelic journey through the human body. Players are tasked with helping a tiny, cartoonish baby navigate through various bodily systems, including the digestive tract and the circulatory system.
The gang is initially thrilled with their creation, but they soon realize that it's too weird for most people to play. They decide to try to market the game to a niche audience, targeting new-agey types who might enjoy the psychedelic visuals and bizarre storyline.
They book a booth at a local alternative health expo, where they hope to attract potential players. However, they quickly discover that the audience isn't quite what they expected. They're bombarded with strange questions about the game's spiritual implications, and they're forced to entertain various weirdos who are convinced that the game will unlock the secrets of the universe.
Just when things can't get any weirder, Topher shows up at the expo with some bad news. It turns out that the gang accidentally used some copyrighted material in their game, and they're at risk of being sued. The gang is panicked, but Topher assures them that he has a plan. He enlists the help of an eccentric lawyer named Barry (played by Jack Black), who promises to help them navigate the legal system.
The gang is skeptical of Barry at first, but they soon come to rely on his over-the-top antics and his bizarre courtroom tactics. As they battle to save their game, they find themselves drawn into a world of corporate espionage, sabotage, and high-stakes legal drama.
"Orgazmo Birth" is a hilarious and surreal episode that captures the essence of Workaholics' unique brand of humor. It's a testament to the show's creativity and irreverence, and it keeps the audience laughing from start to finish.
