Maxin' and Relaxin'

2½ HOURS LATER

Mordecai, his parents, and Anna are at the dinner table. "He kept running and running." William said. "And he shoots the ball into the other team's basket!" Mordecai's parents and Anna laugh while Mordecai hides his face and pounds on the table. "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He groans. "Oh, memories. I've been collecting them, you know, Anna." Hilary said. "Yeah." She playfully elbows Mordecai. "I'm collecting a few interesting ones myself." She said.

"No, I mean on tape. It's called "Mordy Moments." Hilary said. Mordecai looks mortified. In a flashback, Mordecai sits next to his dad, his uncle Steve, and his aunt Maxine while his mom holds a video cassette labeled "Mordy Moments" "Okay, who's ready for some "Mordy Moments"?" Hilary puts the cassette in the VCR and joins her family on the couch. "Bum-da-da-bum! Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-buuuum! "20th Century Mom" Presents Mordy Moments!" In the first scene,

kid Mordecai gets tangled up in a Slip 'N Slide. "Yea-ah! Ohhhh! Ahhhh!" Mordecai's parents, uncle, and aunt laugh while he watches in utter shock. In the next scene, young Mordecai is Peter Pan in a school play. "Just think a happy thought, and you can fly too!" When he jumps, his harness malfunctions, giving him a bad wedgie and he fell. Uncle Steve is so amused, he does a soda spit-take. In the next scene, infant Mordecai is covered in spaghetti and meatballs. "Pasghetti" everywhere!" He shouted. "Pasghetti" on your tushie!" In the next scene,

teenage Mordecai is playing saxophone in a marching band. When his pants fall down, he trips, falls on his face, and his mouthpiece gets stuck in his beak. As his parents and relatives laugh, Mordecai blushes. As he slides onto the floor, the flashback takes a disturbing turn, with Mordecai's parents and relatives towering over him in deep, distorted laughter. Mordecai slams his fists on the floor in humiliation. The flashback ends. "You remember that tape, Mordy?" Mordecai's parents and Anna look at him. "Oh. Yeah. Mm-hmm." He replied.

"You know, you two should stay for a bit longer. We could eat the special dessert I made for Anna, then we could watch the tape!" Hilary said. "Now where did I put it?" William asked. "I think you put it in the basement." Hilary said. Mordecai quickly gets out of his chair. "I'll intercept-- I mean, look for it." He runs out of the kitchen. "Anna, you're in for a real treat." Mordecai goes into the basement and finds a cardboard box labeled "Mordy's Stuff" "Yes!" Inside the box, Mordecai finds both his "Maxin' and Relaxin'" mix tape and the "Mordy Moments" video cassettes.

"Jackpot." Upstairs, Mordecai hears the others talking. "So why do you guys have so many prunes again?" Anna asked. "Once Mordy brings up the tape, I'll show you why." Hilary said. "Sorry, Mom." Mordecai tries breaking the tape with his forehead, but he only hurts himself. "Aaaahhh!" Mordecai then tries breaking the tape by throwing it against the floor, but it bounces across the room and into a VCR. As it begins playing, spirits fly out of the TV screen. Mordecai runs away, but the spirits shove him back onto the floor. "Where's the mix tape?" He asked.

"Oh, you mean... this mix tape?" A ghost of young Mordecai tangled in the Slip 'N Slide holds up "Maxin' and Relaxin'" "Hey, give it back!" Mordecai tries to take the tape back, but "Slip 'N Slide" Mordecai throws it over to a ghost of teenage Marching Band Mordecai. "Aah! What the heck?!" Marching Band Mordecai then throws the tape over to a ghost of "Peter Pan" Mordecai. "Who are you?!" Slip 'N Slide" Mordecai, Marching Band Mordecai, and "Peter Pan" Mordecai stand side by side. "Whoa... You're all me!" He said. "Brilliant. Grab him!" "Slip 'N Slide"

Mordecai and Marching Band Mordecai shove the real Mordecai into a chair. "Ugh! Get off!" Mordecai is tied to the chair by a watering hose. "Aah! Aah! Help! Anna! Mom!" Mordecai shouted. "Pfft! Yeah, right. Why would Mom want to help you after tonight?" "Peter Pan" Mordecai asked. "What does that mean?" Mordecai asked. Marching Band Mordecai plays a low note on his saxophone. "Yeah. It means that while you were busy looking for your dumb little mix tape, we put together a little mix tape of our own." The TV screen plays back several "Mordy Moments" from earlier in the evening. "Stop!" Hilary shouted. "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Can you just be normal?" Mordecai asked. "Normal?" She asked. The TV turns off. "Alright, fine. I admit I haven't been super nice to Mom tonight. But of all people, can't you guys understand? She humiliated us! She put our most embarrassing moments on tape, and now you're stuck like this forever!" Mordecai shouted. "You have to learn to let go, dude. Embarrassing moments make us who we are. The problem isn't that we're stuck like this on "Mordy Moments". "Peter Pan" Mordecai points to Mordecai's head. "It's that we're stuck like this in here." He said. "Besides, Mom can be really cool. Remember after I got caught in the diving slide?" "Slip 'N Slide" Mordecai asked. "Oh, yeah... To make me feel better, she took me out for the biggest sundae I ever saw. I guess that was really cool of her." The Slip 'N Slide stuck around "Slip 'N Slide" Mordecai unravels.

"I'm free!" He said. "Yeah. She had to pull a lot of strings to find a good doctor to remove that saxophone." As Marching Band Mordecai plays a note on his saxophone, the saxophone vanishes. "Yea-ah!" He said. "And after the play, she hunted around for weeks to find me a new pair of rocket-ship underwear." "Peter Pan" Mordecai said. "Aw, man. You guys are right. Mom's totally rad, and I've been a complete jerk to her all night just because I wanted Anna to think I was cool.

"Peter Pan" Mordecai's harness disappears, dropping him to the floor. "Dude, Anna does think you're cool. "Slip 'N Slide" Mordecai frees Mordecai from his watering hose binds. "But girls don't dig guys who are jerks to their mom." He said. "You're right, guys. Thanks. I needed that." Mordecai said. "Glad to help, bro." "Peter Pan" Mordecai said. "See ya! Wouldn't want to be ya!" The other Mordecais said. The three ghosts of Mordecai's past vanish. "Heh. I guess that stuff is pretty funny. "Maxin' and Relaxin'" and "Mordy Moments" appear in front of Mordecai. He leaves the basement, and his mom walks up with the Anna gelatin in her hands.

"Mordecai? Did you find "Mordy Moments"?" Hilary asked. Mordecai shows his mom the "Mordy Moments" cassette. "Oh, good. Come on. Everybody's in the living room. Uh, Mordy, we don't have to watch it if you don't want to. Is it embarrassing for you? Do I embarrass you?" Hilary asked. "Mom, you don't embarrass me. I've been acting totally crazy. Sorry about being a jerk tonight." Mordecai and his mom share a hug. "Aww. My little boy could never be a jerk." Mordecai and his mom join Anna and William in the living room. "Well, look who it is. You found it?" William asked.

"Yup." He replied. "And here's dessert!" Hilary sets the gelatin down on the table. "Wow! It's like looking in a jelly mirror." Anna said. "Oh-ho-ho-ho! This one's a keeper, Mordecai." Hilary said. "Okay, okay, everybody, settle down. Welcome to the 10th annual screening of "Mordy Moments". I need everybody to turn off their cellphones, and no food or drink in the theater -- except Mom's dessert."

Mordecai's parents and Anna laugh. "And I'm gonna need everybody to sign a nondisclosure agreement." Mordecai's parents and Anna continue laughing. Mordecai joins in the laughter and plays the tape before sitting down next to Anna. "Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-buuuum!" Hilary said, imitating a fanfare. Anna leans on Mordecai. "This is way cooler than a mix tape." She said. " ..."Mordy Moments"!" Behind the couch, the three ghosts of Mordecai's past look on before disappearing. "Yea-ah! Ohhhh! Ahhhh!" "Pasghetti" everywhere!" Mordecai, his parents, and Anna laugh.
