While attempting to speak, the scene is cut to the Rooster Teeth studio in Texas, where three cast members of Red vs. Blue are trying to make a new episode, but keep bickering to each other. Rooster Teeth co-creator Burnie Burns, who has become tried of their arguments, proposes an idea to prank the three guys: turn off the RVB Master Switch. Meanwhile, Red Team and Caboose, all agree to enter the teleporter together, to see what is on the other side. However, they all enter the teleporter just as Burnie turns off the Master Switch, and when one of the guys knocks an energy drink onto their Xbox console. (Which happens to be controlling the game Red Team and Caboose are in) This causes some strange electric flairs in the studio, sending the three cast members back into the wall. They stand up to find Sarge, Simmons, Donut, Griff, Caboose, and Lopez standing in front of them, thus scaring them out of the room. The Reds and Caboose believe they are behind enemy lines except Lopez. They all split up and explore the studio. Meanwhile, Matt Hullum finds Joel Heyman in the control room for the CGI animation studio, when they hear strange noises approaching. They duck underneath the table and only notice Sarge's and Caboose's feet. The Reds and Caboose enter another room and find a motion capture computer. As Caboose starts dancing in front of it, Joel can see him on every computer screen in the control room. On the other side of the studio, Griff investigates the kitchen and begins to examine the refrigerator when Geoff Ramsey enters the room. Griff, who is hiding behind the fridge door tells him that he doesn't like cleaning up or doing any work, Geoff agrees with him and the two bond. But Griff accidentally reveals himself to Geoff after he offers him a package of Oreos, and a shot of liquor. Somewhere else, Simmons enters a green screen room, and puts on a headset with a microphone. In the room opposite him, Gus Sorola hears Geoff's scream after he noticed Griff. He puts on another headstand begins communicating with Simmons. Gus then believes that Simmons is his future self. Simmons tells him that humanity is at war similar to the Halo franchise, and tells him that he is engaging the enemy, who is actually Gus. Simmons chucks a grenade at Gus who freaks out, and runs out of the room as Simmons tries to shoot him with his assault rifle. Back in the CGI room, Sarge tells Caboose to stay where he is while he checks out another room. Doing so he runs into Matt and threats to shoot him if he doesn't tell him what's going on. Just then, Gus, and Geoff, who are still terrified for seeing Griff, and Simmons. Bump into Sarge when he tries to shoot Matt. Griff and Simmons enter the room and begin blindly firing at Matt. Meanwhile, Burnie, who has no idea what's going on, finds Lopez in the Red vs. Blue studio fixing the Xbox console to get him and his friends home. Just then Caboose and the rest of the Reds enter the room. Meanwhile, the Rooster Teeth cast members turn off the master switch to RVB just as Donut drops an energy drink onto the Xbox Console, thus sending Caboose and the Reds back to Blood Glutch. Unfortunately, the teleporter also sent Burnie into the game, much to his dismay, and teleported Tucker into the Rooster Teeth studio. |
