Scene 1:Jon's Apartment

A candle is seen on the floor. The power is still out from the previous episode. A farting noise is heard and Chief is seen squatting over the candle.

• Chief: PARDEN ME  /  LOL
• Arbiter:  Mature.

The two are shown to be playing scrabble. Chief sits down across from Arbiter.

• Arbiter: My letters are crap.
• Chief: ur face is crap  /  hury up and go alreadie
• Arbiter: Don't start. You're a thousand times worse. That frying pan would make for stiffer competition.
• Chief: nobodys stiffer than teh chief babby  /  ask ur mom  /  ;)  /  GO
• Arbiter: Fine. Fuck it.

Arbiter plays.

• Arbiter: 'At.'
• Chief: u suck
• Arbiter: Yeah, yeah. Two points. You keeping score or not? Two.

Chief does nothing.

• Arbiter: You keeping score or not? Two. Write it down.
• Chief: ill remembered it
• Arbiter: You won't remember shit. Write it.
• Chief: omg
• Arbiter: Your go. Wake me up when you're through.
• Chief: BUT IM REDY AS SPAGETI ARBITUR
• Arbiter: Reallly? Wow. You taking a turn lasting any less than an hour ought to be televised.

Chief plays.

• Chief: 'CUMFART'
• Arbiter: Okay, this isn't right. How are you able to put down revolting words every single time?
• Chief: 1 2 3 4 5 6 sevin thousind points
• Arbiter: Might wanna double-check that, genius.
• Chief: no its k  /  :3
• Arbiter: Every player's points combined after a full board couldn't even come close to that. How the fuck did you get seven thousand from 'cumfart'?
• Chief: TRIPEL WERD SCOAR DIPSHIT
• Arbiter: I'd ask you to explain your reasoning but I wouldn't want my head to explode.
• Chief: i exploded in ur moms head  /  ROFL
• Arbiter: You're not even allowed to put 'cumfart' down. In fact, every single one of your words is invalid. You can't put curse words.
• Chief: who the hell w00d play that shit  /  thats stuped  /  n e wayz ur just scaered cuz u no im way beter than u at this gaem lol
• Arbiter: Sigh. Whatever. Pass me the letters.

Chief throws the letter bag over.Arbiter draws his letters.

• Arbiter: Hey, you know that hacker pair? The Elite and that horrendous kid?
• Chief: yes arbitur  /  i noes them
• Arbiter: I think I remember catching a glimpse of their tags in that match. When I put my cusor over them. Remember we couldn't see them before? On Breakpoint?
• Chief: yeh  /  i cudnt add that hot sounding chick 2 mai frends list  /  :(  /  so wat
• Arbiter: So we know who they are. We can let TOSERS know and they can kick their asses off the network. I think it was because we picked up those modded weapons. Maybe people with the same hacks can see each other's tags.
• Chief: nao just u wait 1 secinds there arbitur  /  if we have teh 1337 hax alredies then y did we n33d 2 downloaded them frum teh intra tubez?
• Arbiter: I'm pretty sure our console-bricking abilities were temporary. The actual files are needed to reproduce those effects from game to game. Anyway, those guys might be in our recent players list. I can't remember the tags exactly. One was 'MILF-something' or other. Stupid.

Arbiter looks and notices Chief's other leg is shown coverd in tape.

• Arbiter: Shit, did your other foot come off?
• Chief: huh?
• Arbiter: I just noticed your other ankle's all taped and glued up.
• Chief: oh  /  yeh  /  :(
• Arbiter: Jeez... I saw this great movie the other night. I streamed it on the Xbox. You oughta check it out. I really think you'd dig it.
• Chief: wat m00v33
• Arbiter: Footloose.
• Chief: go 2 hell
• Arbiter: Hahaha.
• Chief: at l33st i dusnt l00k liek i just  had a sleepovar @ peter norths house
• Arbiter: What's that supposed to mean?
• Chief: l00ks liek sum dude drained his balls in ur helmet b4 u put it on lmao
• Arbiter: It's glue!
• Chief: k watevir u sez arbitur  /  watevir u sez.
• Arbiter: [beat] We're not doing so hot, are we?"
• Chief: wat u m33n?
• Arbiter: My armor's coming apart in all places. I can feel my joints getting loose. I used to be so rigid.
• Chief: im allways rijid  /  :)
• Arbiter: You? You're worse off than me, man. You're barely keeping yourself together. The only thing left to come off is your head. Your visor's already detachable.
• Chief: :'(
• Arbiter: But I suppose it doesn't really matter. In a way, your head's already long gone.
• Chief: wtf is that suposed 2 m33n
• Arbiter: Surely you must realize by now that you're mentally retarded, right? And I don't mean that in derogatory slang, I mean literally retarded.
• Chief: FUCK U ASSHOLE  /  im a genious
• Arbiter: No.

Chief gets up angrily and flips the Scabble board. Arbiter gets up too.

• Arbiter: Every game! Every fucking game you flip the board! You need a severe kick in the ass!
• Chief: u n33d a severe cock in teh ass  /  but ud <3 that i gess
• Arbiter: You think you're so funny, don't you? Sorry to burst your little bubble. You aren't. You've really changed, you know that?
• Chief: LOL WUT
• Arbiter: I mean you've always been an utter moron, but there was a time when it was at least somewhat charming. You didn't know any better. It was innocent. But now it's like you're self-aware to some degree. Instead of shouting outrageous things in sheer ignorance it's like you're genuinely out to antagonize and hurt people. It's not funny anymore. And you've killed your 'mom' and 'dick' jokes stone-dead with years of incessant repetition. Now you're just offensive.
• Chief: ROFLMAO  /  wat, u think ur n e fun 2 lived w/?
• Arbiter: No, I know I'm not perfect either.
• Chief: YEAH NO SHIT SHAMROCK  /  when ur not paraeding around h33r pretending 2 sound samrt ur sitting arond all :( drinking all teh bewze whining liek a little cunt about hao much dick ur lief sux  /  NOT 2 MENSHIN HOW FUCKING GROSS U R 2 L00K @  /  IF I WAS FORSED 2 PICK ID EASILY BEAT OFF 2 A PICTUER OF GREG OVER U U UGLY FUCK LOL
• Arbiter: At the very least, I have the desire to better myself.
• Chief: GOOD FOR U FAGGOT NOBODY FUCKING CARES  /  its just u and me h33r  /  teh only othar pplz who noes u is claire and she thinks ur a fucking douchebag
• Arbiter: Greg would still be here if you didn't treat him like shit!
• Chief: besieds u already said u dusnt think thers n e points 2 n e thing so wtf r u evin woried about  /  MAKE UP UR FUCKING MIND  /  BETER YET JUST KILL URSELF ALREADY U PATHETICK FUCKING LOSER  /  LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Arbiter starts moving to attack Chief.

• Chief: BRING IT ON COCKSUCKER  /  H33R PUSS PUSS PUSS PUSS PUSS  /  HAHHAHAHAHHAH

The kitchen light flickers on as the power comes back on. They both stare at it and then at each other.

Opening credits roll.

We were mistaken."

Arbiter and Chief are seen watching the anouncement on Jon's computer.

• Arbiter:You couldn't sign back on?
• Claire:Nope. Tried a million times. Then I checked my social networking accounts. They were hacked. Someone spammed a bunch of obscene status updates. It freaked me out 'cause I use the same password for a lot of other stuff. So I spent all morning changing them for all the accounts I could think of.
• Arbiter:That's terrible.
• Claire:And apparently I have a package coming. I have no idea what it is. I'm worried.
