"Ugh," Tobuscus groaned.

"What?" Gabuscus asked.

"I'm BORED!" Tobuscus shouted.

"Why don't you go on the Internet for once? There's plenty of stuff for you to do there."

"That's perfect!" Tobuscus exclaimed. "I'm glad I thought of it." Tobuscus rushed to the computer as Gabuscus rolled his eyes.

When Tobuscus got to the computer, he went to search how not to be bored. He said this aloud as he typed it. Slowly. Very slowly. "How... to... be... not... bored. There." Gabuscus smacks himself in the face as Tobuscus presses Enter.

There silence for a moment.

Just a moment.

"Oh, look, Gabuscus! Look what I found!"

"No." Gabuscus continued to read his magazine.

"Come on!" Tobuscus tugged on Gabuscus' shirt.

"Go away," Gabuscus said, smacking Tobuscus' hand away.

"PLEASE?"

"Fine." Gabuscus muttered reluctantly.

When the two arrived at the computer, Gabuscus noticed something strange on the screen. It was just black, aside from a few words in white text and a red button. "This says that if I click this button, I won't be bored!" Tobuscus exclaimed gleefully.

"Wait, why would there be a website for-" Gabuscus was asking as Tobuscus clicked the button. Out of nowhere, they were sucked into the computer.

Well, I guess if it's from the computer, it wouldn't be out of nowhere.

ONWARDS!

When the men came to their senses, they found themselves in a dark room. If the camera were to zoom in on the floor, you could see that it sort of looks like a combination of computer chips. Sadly, we have a cheap camera that can't zoom in and a lazy cameraman.

"Whoa..." said Tobuscus in awe. "Wow. I'm... not bored!"

Gabuscus, on the other hand, wasn't so enthusiastic.  In fact, he was speaking rather rapidly out of panic. "Oh my God, oh my God! What the heck, what the heck?! Where are we?!?"

"It looks like we are in some sort of computer-like room... like the inside of a computer!"

"What?!" Gabuscus shouted, not sure what to believe. "How do you know?"

Tobuscus scoffed. "Isn't it obvious?" Actually,  I'm finding it very hard to believe that Gabuscus doesn't know this. He must be a real idiot!

Gabuscus looked around.

"And if we go this way, we'll find..." Tobuscus said as he and Gabuscus rounded the corner.

Um, excuse me cameraman, could you move to your spot? WITH the camera, mind you? Thank you.

"... a castle! Yep, here it is."

Gabuscus just stared at the castle, his eyes twitching.

"I wonder if anyone's home?" Tobuscus said to no one in particular and went to the large door.

At last, Gabuscus manned up and spoke for himself. "I'm going home and getting out of this crazy place. Come on, Tobuscus." Gabuscus turned around to leave.

"But I want to stay!" Tobuscus replied in a whiny voice (which, personally, I'm surprised he used. It must be some brain magic that he's trying to use).

"We're in a computer, for God's sake! I don't want to be trapped here. Now are you coming or not?"

Tobuscus put on a spoiled child's face (and sounded like one too), and said "No. I'm not going."

Gabuscus exhaled angrily. "Don't make me drag you home."

Arms crossed and head tilted up, as well as pouting, he refused. "No. I'm tired of you telling me what to do."

"Me?!" Gabuscus sputtered. "Do you not remember all the crazy stuff that you dragged me into?!"

(Cue super-fast compilation of flashbacks)

Tobuscus pondered for a second. "Oh yeah, like when we turned into zombies in the first episode."

"Wait, what?"

"I'm going in, and I'm going to be king!" Tobuscus proclaimed.

"Whatever. I'm getting out of here." Gabuscus walked away.

"FINE! I don't need you!" Tobuscus went opened the giant door, went into the castle, and slammed it.

After around 30 seconds of walking around, Gabuscus decided to go back. He kept on saying that it was because Tobuscus was probably very scared at the moment, but we all know that it's because Gabuscus is a scaredy-cat.

When Gabuscus went in, he found Tobuscus on a throne, surrounded by goblins. They were carrying him to a large computer volcano.

Quickly, our hero jumped up and grabbed Gabuscus, went outside the castle, pushed a magical floating button that was in front of them, and they were home.

"Oh, thank goodness. It was starting to get boring there."

Gabuscus slapped himself in the face.
