across the floor of the Red base. Cut to Tucker watching Simmons working on a console. Wash walks up.

“What is all this?” washington asked 

“It's the future.” simmons said

“Where the hell have you been?” tucker asked

“I've been doing everything I can to keep us alive.” washington said

“Oh really? Then where were you when Freckles tried to kill me for calling his tiny hat stupid!?” tucker said 

“I thought you didn't need me protecting you, Tucker.” washington said throwing back tuckers old word 

“Hey, guys. I'm trying to revolutionize the world of inter-canyon communication. So if you could keep it down that'd be great!” simmons said 

“What is he talking about?” washington said

“I'm talking about... the internet!” simmons said

Simmons stands up and reveals the new "Simmons" search engine.

“Welcome!” the computer said 

“Oh my god! Everybody leave! Everybody leave right now! There's something I've gotta do.” tucker said

“The internet?” washington said confused 

“Seriously. You're gonna see some shit if you don't leave.” tucker said

“Well, it's not really the internet. The only two points of communication are Red and Blue base.” simmons said as Tucker then looked disappointed 

“Why would you lie to us like that?” Tucker said as Tissues and Vaseline are seen in the background behind Tucker.

“You put one of these at Red base too?” washington asked

“Yeah. I had to sneak past Freckles but it was totally worth it.” simmons said

“Why?” washington asked

“Behold!” Simmons said as he gestured to  the "Basebook" homepage.

“Basebook?” washington said in confession 

“Yeah. It's a site that lets you post pictures, videos and even text posts so that your friends always know what you're up to. It's revolutionary!” simmons said

“Revolutionary? The first social media sites were created hundreds of years ago.” washington said 

“And there are no friends in this canyon. Only forced acquaintances.” tucker said

“Yeah, but those old sites just turned into amogarations of attention whores. Nothing but teenagers who wanted to prove they were cool and old people who wanted to prove they were still relevant.” simmons said

“So what's the point of Basebook?” tucker asked 

“Oh, y'know. Just wanna keep in touch with my friends on the Red team while I'm your prisoner. Can't let them forget about Ol' Simmons! Ha ha he, huh ha ha he,” Simmons said as he started  crying

“Well... I'm glad you spent your time in captivity on something meaningful.” washington said

“So you made it. What now?” tucker said

“Well, let's see what Sarge is up to.” Simmons said as he checked the computer. Then he noticed something “Uh huh. Hmm. Hasn't set up his profile yet... That's cool. Umm I'll just wait for an update. He has to have an update.Yeah I'm sure It'll come eventually. Huh Updates. He he ha, he he…” simmons started to go a little crazy washington and tucker saw this and looked at each other
