[edit] Synopsis
[edit] Cold open
Dr. Weird reveals himself. He asks Steve if he is invisible, to which Steve says he isn't. Meanwhile, the Mooninites' ship passes by.
[edit] Plot
Meatwad is counting the number of Harvest Time tickets he has, as he's trying to get a ten-speed. The Mooninites show up, but Frylock throws them out. Meatwad asks them to help him win the ten-speed. They go to the Harvest Time carnival, where Err cheats on the skee ball machine to get more tickets. Instead of getting a ten-speed, the Mooninites leave with the Foreigner Belt, a belt that bestows upon them the powers of the super group Foreigner.
The Mooninites first use the belt on Carl, freezing him by using the belt with the song "Cold as Ice", then take his pornography and dresser. They burn the dresser in the woods and go back to the Aqua Teens' house. They then blur Frylock's vision with the song "Double Vision", so he can't shoot them with his eye blasts. Afterwards, Master Shake asks Ignignokt to use the belt to help him get girls. Err uses the belt on Shake with the song "Turn Me Loose", but it has no effect as it's a song by Loverboy. Meanwhile, Carl thaws himself with his tanning bed set on Jamaican, and steals the belt to use against the Mooninites. With the song "Hot Blooded", he boils the water in his pool, causing the Mooninites to flee. Frylock then shows up with Carl's ezalia bushes in his fries, thinking they are the Mooninites. Carl asks if there's a reverse on the belt, to which Meatwad replies yes. Carl attempts to reverse the effects of the belt to undo the damage the Mooninites did, only to have the top of his head turn into a Connect Four board, learning that the belt was set on "Head Games". Meatwad tries to make Carl feel better by telling him that with computers, he can talk to people without having to leave the house.
[edit] Cultural references
- Ignignokt claims his God is "an Indian who turns into a wolf", but Err corrects him that he may be referring to Wolfen.
- The Foreigner Belt uses commands named after songs by the rock group Foreigner. The songs referenced include "Cold as Ice", "Dirty White Boy", "Double Vision", "Hot Blooded", "Head Games", and "Urgent".
- Carl claims he saw Foreigner performing with Canadian rocker Bryan Adams at the Meadowlands Arena.
- The Loverboy song "Turn Me Loose" is used by Err with the Foreigner Belt, but as it's not a Foreigner song, it had no effect. Carl also claimed that he saw Loverboy at Madison Square Garden.
- Err sings part of the Styx song Mr. Roboto.
[edit] Notes
- The music during the end credits is "Mooninites Death March" in place of the original song.
