Dude! Check it out, man! They're here! What's here? Our fake band t-Shirts that we ordered from that site last night.
What? Last night, I asked you if you wanted to be in a band and you said Yes! I wanna be in a band with you.
Alright, but we gotta have a cool band name.
What do you think of "Cool Dudes"? "Face Punch.
" "Rad 'N' Subtract.

Awesome, right? But that's just our names! We aren't really going to wear these around, are we? Woah, rad shirts! What are those for? They're for our band.
You guys are in a band? "Mordecai and the Rigbys"? That's so cool.
No, no, no, we're not in a band, heh So, what, it's some sort of fake band? No, it's a real band, but just not a big deal, you know? Your band should play the open mic tomorrow night! Yeah, for sure, uh totally.
Awesome.
I can't wait to see you guys play.
Well, I guess I'll see you then.

You're gonna be fine! Besides, it's too late to teach you anything else.
Gig's in 20 minutes.
We're screwed.

Yeah! Yeah, baby! You can stop now.
Wait, wait.
I can explain, I can explain! We were lip-synching.
Hey, look, I don't blame you.
We thought we could just order some t-shirts and pass ourselves off as a band.
But it turns out playing music's really hard to do.
We just got caught up in the dream, man.
And just for a little while it was real.
But that's over.
And lip-synching's not cool.
So we're breaking up the band.
Why'd you stop? It was going great.
You tricked us into lip-synching! Look.
We've become rich and famous because of lip-synching.
Don't you wanna be a part of that? No, that's lame! You may be me, but that's not the me I wanna be.
Me neither! Mordecai and the Rigbys is over.
OK, dude! Think about what you're doing! Yeah, stop, man! If you break up the band, what are we gonna do in the future?! I wouldn't wanna ruin the surprise.
Nooo! Yeah! Alright! I don't know why you thought this open mic would be embarrassing.
This is awesome! Mordecai! Mordecai! Margaret! Margaret! - Mordecai! - Margaret! That was pretty cool, what you said up there! Thanks, Margaret.
Oh, hey, have you met my new boyfriend, Angel? C'mon, baby.
We don't wanna be late for our dinner reserva-ations! Oh, yeah.
See you, guys! Oh, Angel, you have such a great voice.
Maybe you should have just kept lip-synching.
