The groundskeepers are at Pops' House. "This is it, people. The big day." Everyone begins talking to each other, and Benson sighs at this. "Pops?" He asked. "Today is my dad's birthday." Everyone but Pops talks to each other again. "Seriously? Does no one read the emails I send out? " Everyone mumbles in response. "Anyway, everybody knows that Mr. Maellard loves surprises. But they also know that he's impossible to surprise." Benson said. "It must be from his time in the war.

He says he always slept with his eyes open." Pops said, and Benson chuckles. "That's why I've come up with the perfect plan." He flips the chalkboard next to him. It reads 'Fake Surprise' in large white letters. "Bam! 'Fake Surprise'. See, it'll go down like this." He shows what he is planning. "Maellard will show up like...." He and Maellard shake hands. "Hiya, Benson. I'm here to pick up Pops for my birthday dinner." Benson said. "And I'm gonna be all, 'What? I didn't know it was your birthday'." Benson takes Maellard to the snack bar. "That's when I'll take him to the snack bar where," Thomas pops up and gives Benson a cupcake for Maellard. "Bam! Fake surprise." Benson drives Maellard to the house. "He'll be so thrown off by it he won't suspect a thing when I take him to the real party." The groundskeepers are partying.

"Wow, Benson. That was the perfect surprise." He hands Benson a bag of money. "Here's a million dollars." The plan ends, and Benson still continues to narrate what he thinks will happen next. "Gee thanks, Mr. Maellard. You know, it was nothing really." Benson said. Y/N awkwardly clears her throat. "Uh, Benson?" She asked. "Uh, so yeah. That's how we're gonna do it." Benson said, and Pops claps. "Oh, that plan sounds wonderful, Benson." He said. "Alright. Time for your assignments. Skips, set up the table. Muscle Man and Hi Five Ghost, go buy balloons. Mordecai and Rigby, you're picking up the cake. You too, Y/N." Benson said. "Really?" She asked.

"Yeah. It's prepaid and everything. All you have to do is pick it up." Benson gives Rigby the receipt. "Just give them the receipt and bring the cake back. That's it." Benson said. "Aw, yeah!" Rigby said. "♪Picking up the cake, picking up the cake! Picking up the cake, gonna do it great!♪" the duo rapped, and Y/N snickers. "Just pick up the cake and try not to ruin my big day." Benson said. "I thought it was Maellard's day." Y/N said. "JUST PICK UP THE CAKE!" Later, the trio are at Top Tier Cakes. Y/N, Mordecai and Rigby walk in. There's a long line of people. "Man, this place is packed! Why does everyone need a cake so bad?" Rigby asked. Y/N looks at the receipt. "Whoa, check it out. This cake Benson ordered is crazy expensive." She said. "It is?" Mordecai asked, also looking. "$130?!" Rigby asked. "I guess Benson is going all out." Y/N said. "Hey, guys, check out that line." Rigby points at the sign. "Nobody's in it." He said.

"It says "Pre Paid", so yeah; let's do it." Y/N said. "I got my cake, I got my cake!" A man said. As a female customer is about to talk, Y/N, Mordecai and Rigby switch over to the Pre Paid Order stand. "Excuse me, I'm here to pick up a cake." Y/N said. "Oh, if you have a pre paid order receipt, I can get that for you." The employee said. "Yeah, we do!" Y/N said, and the female employee takes the receipt. "Okay, it'll be just a minute." She said. "Excuse me, I was here before they were." A customer said.

"Sorry ma'am, but pre paid customers take priority." She walks away to pick up the cake. "Hey, you three!" Y/N, Mordecai and Rigby look up at her. "That's right, I'm talking to you, bozos. You just cut the line." The woman said. "Uuuhhhh...." Mordecai said. "What? No we didn't." Y/N said. "Yes you did! Get back here and take a number like everybody else." The woman said. "We didn't cut in line. This is the pre paid line." Mordecai said. "Ho, ho. That's a fine excuse for a bunch of LINE CUTTERS!" The woman shouted. "Look, we didn't cut, okay? This is a separate line for people with pre paid receipts." Y/N said. All of the other customers murmur in agreement and start lining up at the pre paid order stand. "But..." the woman said. The female employee returns with a cake box.
