    You were back stage in the dressing room. It was the first  live show you will ever perform in. The back stage room had a tv, a clothed rack, a couch, and a place where the cyborg was charging up a bit more. On the couch there was a banjo. You and 2D sat on the couch. You were watching some weird ass thing on the tv, you couldn't even describe it. Murdoc was sticking his face through the little peek hole in the door mumbling about. 2D began plucking the strings on the banjo.

"Shh. Shhh. Shush. Shuuushhh!" Murdoc looked over at 2D, then back to the door."

"SHUT UP! SHUDDUP!", he pointed at 2D, "I'm tryin' to listen to da door.."

2D raised his eyebrows, then continued playing it once more. You looked over at him in concern.

"WOULD YOU PLEEEEEASE STOP PLAYIN' THAT SODDING BANJO!" He looked utterly annoyed.

"But et helps calm my Nerv before dah show!" He tried tuning the banjo and plucked one more string.

"If you strum another bum note on that hillbilly instrument I'll STICK IT IN YA MOUTH!"

2D pulled up his knees and coward with his hands over his eyes. You furrowed your eyebrows looking at Murdoc and crossed your arms. Murdoc shrugged.

"Now...where was I....oh yeah there's definitely somethin' going on out thear.", He tried opening the door. He failed, "Oh this door is jammed...", he turned to 2D once more, "Why's the door jammed!?" He asked him like 2D knew. He hid once more.

"Like hell if he knows." You defended him.

"Hang on! What's that? It sounds like tha warm up band is ready to take da stage. Won't be long now peeps won't be long." He smiled demonically and put his hands together. You rolled your eyes at the green man.

   2D got up and went through a short ass door to go use the bathroom. Murdoc stood at the door impatiently for about two minutes. You were sprawled out on the couch, and the clothing rack was pushed over behind the couch, 2D accidentally bumped it when he was on his way to the bathroom and it fell over, but Murdoc was too focused on the door to even hear it. The cyborg looked like she was getting a bit over charged, she was starting to twitch and you could see visible electric shocks around her. You looked at her, then Murdoc, then the cyborg and then Murdoc.

Murdoc breathed heavily, "HOW MUCH LONGA IS THIS WARM UP BAND GONNA HOG THE STAGE FOR!?.... It sounds like some sort of Gorillaz tribute band.." he did a little weird motion while he said that.

   The toilet flushed. Murdoc looked around then saw the fake noodle getting shocked. You unplugged that power cord and she stopped twitching. Murdoc looked around the room, confused. The small door opened and 2D climbed out of it with his lanky body.

Murdoc pointed to him and shouted, "Where he bloody hell have you been!?"

2D stopped in mid stride and looked at Murdoc slightly terrified, "Toilet."
The way he said it was so cute you smiled a little, sitting up in the couch.

"Toilet!? What do ya mean toilet?" He approached 2D and smacked him across the face followed by you yelling "HEY!" And Murdoc giving you an apologetic look.
"Where the hell did that door come frromm?" He questioned in a surprised matter. You sat up on the couch. 2D stood there, looking like a toothpick, with his scrawny arms downward and pressed to his sides, with his legs as close together as they could get.

Murdoc yanked in the small door's knob, "awwhh it's jammed." He began yanking on the doorknob a bit to hard and it looked like he was humping the door a little. 2D looked uncomfortable and started scooting away from him towards the wall. You looked at your uncle with an amused look on your face mixed with a bit of concern.

"Why are the doors in this dressing room jammed!?" He grunted, pulling his whole body in the door and started pulling on the door aggressively. You and 2D looked over at each other in deep concern.

"Need! to! get! on! stage! now! Can't! Ya! Knob! Any! Harda!" Murdoc broke the door knob and fell to the ground. You started to laugh a bit. 2D looked so scared.

Murdoc stood up and pointed upwards, "RIGHT! Ima smash that door down w brute force!" He announced, confidently running towards the door making weird sounds.
You spotted keys on the table where the chips and other snacks were and covered your mouth to prevent laugher as Murdoc smacked his face into the door. You walked over and picked up the keys showing 2D. 2D smirked in a amusement.

"Oh uncle Mudzzy ~!"

"Yeass deary?" He stood up and brushed some dust off his shirt.

You dangled the keys in front of him, "The door was locked.... and you know you have to turn the doorknob to open a door right..?"

"How long have you known the door was locked, luv." He looked at you with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Oh, just before you smacked your face on that door like an idiot." You said in a cocky tone. Murdoc shook his head and unlocked the door, and then actually turned the knob rather then yanking it. You began walking towards the entrance to the stage.

"Oi! You best be getting off my stage!"
