Channel 6 Leading Anchor Del Hanlon interviews the band for the first time with the hardest-hitting questions.
All their secrets finally revealed tonight at 8:00.
Ohhhhh! Mercury Heat! I can't believe Margaret got us special press passes, compliments of Channel 6! Mordecai and Rigby! You took a DTV from the Dome-itory! DT-what? You know, that very expensive piece of machinery parked outside.
Oh, yeah.
We were only gonna use it for like a minute.
Is that so? Well, I've got surveillance photos that say otherwise! Oh, boy.
Can it! I am so sorry for this, Dr.
Langer.
The DTVs are meant for scientific research.
They could have ruined weeks of data.
There was a line there, and your guys crossed it.
That's why I'm enacting a 24-hour lockdown.
- What? - No way! And Benson here is gonna make sure you don't leave the house.
'Cause if you do, he's fired.
What? You can't do that! Oh, yeah? Who's gonna stop me? You? - Uh - That's what I thought.
Keep them in line or we'll keep them in line for you! I can't believe this! Come on, Benson.
You know these dome rules are ridiculous.
Yeah.
You're just too afraid to do anything about it.
I don't want to hear it.
Lockdown! 24 hours! Starting now! Get inside! Aw, dude! There is no way we're missing Mercury Heat.
No one's getting past me.
No sir.
Thanks for helping us out, Pops.
Of course! I've just about had it with these dome rules.
They're absolute rubbish, if you ask me.
How are you gonna distract Benson? Leave that to me.
Wow, Pops.
That's very impressive.
I've never had a single lesson.
But I think my ears are tired now, so Well, then.
Let's wake them up! Best spot ever! Rubber baby buggy bumpers.
Rubber baby buggy bumpers.
Look! Here they come! Whooooa! Wow.
What an entrance.
Del Hanlon, reporter on Channel 6 News.
Hey.
Dude, I can't believe we almost missed this.
Good thing our plan is foolproof.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Yeah.
You better sleep.
Good evening.
We have a very special treat tonight.
After years of avoiding the press, rock sensation Mercury Heat is with us for our very exclusive interview.
Del Hanlon reports.
Del.
Margaret, I got to say, it's getting pretty warm up here 'cause these guys are bringing in the heat.
Or should I say Mercury Heat! You know, 'cause, uh Now, you guys have been performing together for a while now.
The fans must know Do you like it? Yeah.
Incredible! Now, another burning question for all the true Mercury Heads out there.
Your performances are pretty loud.
How is that on your ears? Aah! Dude, what kind of question was that? What was that? We actually hear very well.
You got some questions for us? Actually, we do.
Like, why does the four-minute-long guitar solo in the song "Flames Forever" end so abruptly? Yeah.
Is it true it's because the mysterious fifth member died while recording it? I want answers! Finally.
Some real questions You.
Out.
You two.
In.
And, scene.
Hmm.
I can't believe Mordecai and Rigby said that to me earlier.
"Meh, Benson, you're just too afraid to anything about the dome rules.
" Who do those guys think they are? I'm their boss, for crying out loud! I don't think you're mad at Mordecai and Rigby.
I think you're just mad at Dr.
Langer 'cause he's technically the boss now and you're not.
Oh, that's completely not true.
Oh, great.
Now there's a malfunction with the dome door and I have to go fix it.
Skips, make sure Mordecai and Rigby don't leave the house.
That's another great question, um, what was your name again? - Mordec - Pizza for only $5! - What was that? - Oh, uh they're selling more pizza for $5.
Huh.
What a deal.
We'll order some when I get back.
Those two have really done it this time.
And that's when I realized, like, I wasn't mad at the world, you know? I was mad at myself.
There, there, Vince.
Cut the cameras! Cut the cameras! That was the best interview anyone's ever given us.
So, want to come party with us on our private jet? Yeah, we do! Lousy dome scientists.
Don't tell me what to do.
Huh? Mordecai and Rigby! Aah! Oh, dear.
Yeah, so I want to graduate high school to impress my dad, you know? I know what you mean, man.
All the fans in the world can't replace a father's love.
Hey.
I know what'll cheer you up.
Hey, Stan.
Can we get a barrel roll, please? Anything for Mercury Heat.
Whoa! Whoo! Again! Again! Dude.
This is seriously the best night of my life.
Hello? The jig is up! Benson just sealed off the entrance to the dome! Aw, man.
Pops, you stall him till we get back.
Benson's onto us! He's gonna find out we're not at the park! What?! There's no way we can get back in time! There might be a way.
You ever wear one of these? Rah! Pops?! What's going on here? Oh, Benson! I'm, uh I'm just as surprised as you! They snuck out! I knew it! I'm gonna fire them before Dr.
Langer fires me! So, once we get close to the dome, spread your wings and coast through the moon door.
I don't know about this! Of course you do! Just follow your dreams! - Aah! - Aah! Whoo! Rock on! Look out! - Ow! - Aah! Mordecai and Rigby! I know you're out here! Dude! Benson's coming! Quick! Down here! I think we lost him.
Mordecai! Rigby! Where are you? Come on! Hurry! Wait.
What's that sound? It's coming from down there.
Aah! - Ohhh.
- Ohhh.
There you are! Benson! Something's down there! There's a huge monster! It looked right at us! That's the lamest excuse I've ever heard.
Benson! Maybe you misunderstood me.
When I told you to keep them in the house for 24 hours, I meant it! I mean, wow.
All you had to do was literally keep them in one place for a day, but no.
You couldn't even do that.
Now they're out here wearing those stupid costumes.
So, congratulations, Mordecai and Rigby! You're fired! - What? - Hey.
If anyone's gonna fire them, it's me! Yeah! I don't tell you people how to do your job, whatever that may be! So you certainly don't have the right to tell me how to do my job! This is my park.
They're my employees.
You people need to back off and quit breathing down my neck! Do I make myself clear? Um crystal.
Crystal clear as day.
Well, it looks like you got these two under control.
I'll I'll just leave you be.
Aah! Stupid jetpack.
Whooooa! We're sorry we made you look bad, Benson.
Yeah, we're sorry.
But seriously, though, that was so cool how you told Langer off like that.
Hey.
What do you expect? I'm the boss.
And as your boss, it's my decision not to fire you.
- Whoo! - Whoo! For now.
- Yeah! - Yeah! Now, take off those costumes.
You two look ridiculous.
They're ready.
And I'm going to the hospital.
