Hi Five Ghost is holding onto a dandelion and blows it. A piece of it starts floating around; near a butterfly Pops is trying to catch, past Muscle Man and Starla who are sharing a pie, through the winds over to Skips who is working on his Volkswagen, past a tree with a squirrel and birds, past a poster that says 'Come Celebrate Rigby's Graduation! This Sunday!', until it stops near Mr. Maellard, who shakes hands with Dr. Langer. Dr. Langer then takes off in his jetpack, the dust sending the dandelion floating again. It floats away from the scientists and lands on Benson's car. One scientist is checking his briefcase as Benson appears. "Hey, what's going on?" He asked. "We're done. Dr. Langer gave us the order to pack up our stuff and move out." One of the scientists said.

"Well, if you're all done, then that means Pam and I aren't working together anymore. I could ask her out on a date! Gotta find Pam!" Benson gets into his car and drives off, causing the dandelion seed to float again. It floats in the air for a while before floating near the roof, where (Y/n), Mordecai and Rigby are playing a video game. "Come on....Oh man, come on!" Mordecai said. "Argh! No, no, no-" The seed floats into his mouth, making him choke. He coughs it out. "I win! Whooooaaaaa!" Mordecai said. "Only because I let you win." (Y/n) said, and Rigby snickers, as Mordecai scoffs. "Sure, (Y/n)." He said. "Whatever! I don't even care, 'cause I'm graduating tomorrow. And we gon' par-tay!  You ready for my grad-party, duuuudes?" Rigby asked. "Of course. I'm on the planning committee." Mordecai said.

"Cool, man. What a year. I've been learning and growing and doing so much, all while holding onto a steady girlfriend." Rigby said, and (Y/n) blushes. "I'm really amazing, y'know?" Rigby asked, and (Y/n) chuckles. "Yes, yes you are, Rigby." She said. "Man, the rate I'm going, I'll probably get my college degree before you get yours." Rigby said to Mordecai. Rigby laughs, and Mordecai does so in a weak manner. "Yeah. Well, in my past year I got really good at this video game." He holds up his controller with a grin. A phone is heard ringing.

"Hold that thought, dude." Rigby pulls out his phone. Principal Dean is calling. "Principal Dean?" He answers the call. "Hello? Come to school now? Deadly serious?" He walks away, whispering to Mordecai. "I'll talk to you later." He said. "Oh, no. Graduation's cancelled. No graduation for Rigby!" Mordecai chuckles a bit, then sighs. He puts down his controller and crosses his arms, looking out, and (Y/n) looks at him. "Are you okay, dude?" She asked suspiciously, which startles him and he turns to her. "Huh?! Oh, yeah. I'm fine." He said.

But (Y/n) wasn't buying it. "Nice try, Mordecai. But I've known both you and Rigby long enough to tell when you're lying." She said. Mordecai looks a little annoyed. "Seriously, I'm fine, okay?" He snapped. "Okay..." she said. At West Anderson High School, Rigby is with Principal Dean in his office. "Come on, Principal Dean! You can't fail me!" He protested. "Who said anything about failing you?" He asked. "On the phone! You said it was

"deadly serious". Rigby said. "Okay, I can see how that could sound ominous, but this is good news! Are you familiar with the television program "Inspire America!"?" Principal Dean asked. "You mean that cheesy show with inspirational stories, then everybody cries, then everybody dances at the end?" Rigby asked. "That's the one! See, Rigby, apparently you're an inspiration to this country. Most kids who drop out don't come back, but you did. So you, Rigby, are gonna give this year's graduation speech on TV." Principal Dean said.

"But graduation's tomorrow!" Rigby said. Principal Dean claps. "Better get moving. Oh, and Rigby..." he said. "If you screw this up for me, I'm gonna eat your diploma." Rigby has a nervous and sweaty expression on his face. Dean suddenly points a finger. "Ha, I'm just pulling your chain. Actually, no, yeah. I will eat it." Rigby whimpers. At  Eileen's house, Mordecai, (Y/n),

Anna, Olivia, Margaret, Sam, Rigby and Eileen are watching "Inspire America!". The host, Flannery Shedlawn, is talking with an old lady. "And now back to Inspire America! Now, you have been baking cookies for lawyers for how many years now?" Flannery Shedlawn asked. "37." An old lady replied. "An eternity! And it never occurred to you that lawyers probably make enough to buy cookies if they want them?" Flannery Shedlawn asked. The old lady shakes her head. "Never. Not once." Flannery sheds tears as he holds up a cookie.
