One peaceful morning in Finn and Jake's Treehouse, Finn and his mechanical video gaming system pal, BMO were walking around the room with blindfolds over their eyes while Drawer was playing his banjo, getting better at playing songs like Rainbow Connection, Joy to the World, 500 Miles among others. Finn and BMO's arms were outstretched with their hands clasped together and their index fingers pointing like guns. Their fingers met and pressed against each other while BMO's push past Finn's.

"Ha-ha!" BMO laughed. "I win!"

BMO and Finn then took their blindfolds off, just when Jake walked in carrying a couple bags of groceries which he just bought at Downtown CN Central.

"Hey, man." Finn said to him.

"Hi, Jake." Drawer added as he waved. "I'm just performing some music on my banjo here."

"You guys continue doing your things quietly." Jake said to them all. "I need to get into the zone."

He then walked over to the window and looked up as the sun shined down on him. "I am ready to receive instruction from the realm of creation above me and the sandwich I am about to conceive. I am open. Use me."

Jake then turned some classical music on the radio and started dancing as he took a deep breath. He then washed some vegetables and even sharpened knives.

"One, two, three, four, five, six." Jake said to himself as he then placed herbs on a steak. "Rosemary, thyme."

After he did that, he then placed the steak in a bag, sealed it, and placed it in a pot of boiling hot water. "Sous-vide. Keep that at 135 degrees."

As a loaf of bread was cut in half, he then used a blowtorch to toast the inside, which was a clever way to toast bread faster.

"Alright, now we're gettin' somewhere." Jake approved as he then placed each ingredient on the bread as he said their names. "Cream cheese! Pickles from my boy Prismo! And some dill!"

He then grabbed a bird from the windowsill. "Diced boiled eggs! Bird from the window! Yeah, baby, now we're rollin'!"

Finn, Drawer, and BMO then climbed up the ladder to the kitchen as Jake was doing more and MORE work on his tasty creation

"Common cucumber! Sliced Roma tomato. Sweet yellow onion-organic." Jake added as he teared up in amazement before adding the wiped away tears to the sandwich for extra flavor. "Oh, almost done. Tears for salt. Meat prepared sous-vide. Bacon."

He then placed the lobster in a pot of boiling water, which was the important part, but as it was making its soul escape. Jake then shooed it onto the sandwich. "Lobster soul."

He then placed on the top piece of bread, completing the sandwich and causing it to glow blue, making Jake feel extremely amazed by what he created,
But he ended up falling backwards. But luckily, Finn, BMO and Drawer were there in time to catch him before he could fall to the floor.

"This is the greatest sandwich I've ever made!" Jake said to them proudly.

"Is it glowing?" Finn asked in a bit of concern.

"It's probably just for dramatic effect." Drawer replied as they all got up and walked to the sandwich. "That sure does look tasty though!"

"You guys want some?" Jake asked them.

"It's cool, man." Finn replied. "I know you want to eat the whole thing, and I'm cool with that."

"Yeah." Drawer agreed. "I'm not a guy who eats stuff with vegetables, particularly due to me being friends with Bob and Larry."

"Thank you." Jake said as he picked up his sandwich, ready to savor EVERY SINGLE last bite of it, just like he wanted it to be.
