Pickle's service. How many days has it been since he died? A distinguished gentleman says nice things about Pickle, calling Mrs. Pickle his "devoted wife, Virginia." Ted and Emmett are very, very late for the service and walk in talking. Not rude at all. Ted remarks on how many A-list people are in attendance. Jesus, Ted, give it a fucking rest. Emmett says that none of these people had anything to do with Pickle while he was alive. Why is Emmett half an hour late to the service? Emmett and Ted walk all the way down the aisle and practically sit next to Mrs. Pickle, talking the entire time. Just as they start wrapping up the service, Ted tells Emmett it's time for him to speak. Emmett stands up and starts walking toward the front, interrupting and saying he'd like to talk. Mrs. Pickle motions for Security, and guards escort Emmett out (as he shouts, "I'm more than a friend!") of the service as the minister continues the ceremony. Ted follows Emmett out, shouting for them to take their hands off Emmett. Why crash a funeral and then get upset when they don't let you talk?
Brian comes home to Fatboy Slim playing and his loft in a complete shithouse mess. Michael and Justin, two people who don't pay rent on that place, have turned the house into a comic-book studio. There are papers everywhere -- hung up on clothesline, covering the floor, taped to the walls...everywhere. That Justin draws like a fucking maniac. Justin and Michael don't even acknowledge Brian until he starts talking, and then they just start talking to each other about the superpowers they've given Rage. If they're still working out what he looks like and what powers he has, then what are the hundreds of papers tacked all over the apartment? Brian says he'd like his loft back, and rips down one of the papers. Michael and Justin yell at him not to touch anything, since the drawings are all in sequence. Brian asks how he's supposed to get to his bedroom. Michael tells him to go around. Brian doesn't, and Michael yells at him again. The boys go back to planning their comic book. Michael's character's name is Zephyr. He asks if they can make him taller and give him bigger pecs. He says Rage's best friend should look almost as good. Brian says it's Chest of Death night at Babylon, so they need to get ready. Justin says they need to finish what they're doing first, so they'll meet him at Babylon. Brian actually says the line, "All work and no dick make Mikey and Sunshine dull boys." I could have written this script when I was ten.
