MK is snoring in bed. Suddenly, his room begins to shake.
"What? Earthquake! Oh, no-o-o-o. All my pwecious pwossessions. Huh? 9:01. I'm late for work! My , my staff, where's my staff? Staff? 's gonna kill me! Okay. Socks. Jacket. Bandana. Let's go."
He dashes downstairs to Pigsy's Noodles.
"And I'm here. Pigsy! I'm so sorry I'm late. I overslept, and I guess I didn't set an alarm? Honestly, I don't even remember going to bed. And the earthquake, and-and-and-- please don't fire me."
"Fire you? Ha! Why would I fire you?"
"Uh, well, last time you said, "If you are one minute late ever again, you are fired."
"I said that?"
"That doesn't sound like my best friend Pigsy."
"Uh --"
Tang and Pigsy laugh together. The world shakes again.
"It's happening again!"
"Again? What you talking about, MK?"
"Did you not feel that?"
"Feel what?"
"I think MK's got a real case of the Mondays, hmm?"
"Hmm, maybe it's an inner ear thing? Oh, the staff. Yep. Uh, must be in there real good."
Pigsy Laughs. "Your staff ain't in your ear, kid."
"Oh. That's a relief. Wait, where is it?"
"On top of the mountain, sealing away the Demon Bull King."
"Uhh, say what now?"
"You do remember, right?" He sighs. "I keep saying you work him too hard."
"That's it. You're taking a day off."
MK leaves the noodle shop in excitement.

Lydia is sleeping soundly on her bed when she is awoken by loud rapid knocking making her jump out of bed. "Who the hell could that be?" She yawns. She goes to open the door in her pajamas.
"LYDIA GUESS WHAT?!?"
"What Mk..."
"PIGSY GAVE ME THE DAY OFF!"
"Ok first of all stop yelling...and that doesn't sound like something Pigsy would do."
"I know right! Oh also you look great today!"
"What do you mean?"
"Your eye bags! They're gone!"
"REALLY?!?!" She rushes to the nearest mirror and checks "Holy crap your right."
"Put some clothes on! Let's hang out today!"
"Alright."
