The local country club patrons are a bunch of bullies, but when Mordecai and Rigby try to even the score after their golf cart gets taken away destined to be turned into a toilet in a nightly ceremony. Despite having some of their shit taken, the rest of the park employees not named Benson want nothing to do with helping Mordecai and Rigby get their cart back so it looks like our titular heroes are gonna have to do it themselves! The guys end up breaking into the club, but they get knocked the hell out in ‘throne’ room and wake up strapped to two boards.  When they come to, the patrons tell Mordecai and Rigby that they plan on turning their golf cart into a toilet! Thankfully, Benson shows up and declares war on the country club like a boss and Thomas frees Mordecai and Rigby.  A big huge fight ensues between the employees and the patrons with the park dudes able to save the golf cart before it meets its doom! One of the country club dudes gets turned into a toilet and gets sent into outer space and the park employees get all of their belongings back.

With the exception of the climactic battle near the end which was pretty much awesome, a lot of the plot points this week have been done elsewhere. Whomever wrote this one up definitely took a pad and pen taking notes on Monty Burns and Carter Pewterschmidt and wrote down some of their most memorable jokes only to put them in a Regular Show episode. Toilets are always a great idea, but I also wasn’t crazy about how Muscle Man and Skips were basically taken out during the skirmish as both usually put up better fights than that. In any case, the episode was really, really funny and should definitely be watched.
