At the park we see Mordecai at the living room.

Mordecai: Hurry dude! It's back on!

We see Rigby running as he had snacks in his arms

Rigby: I'm coming!

Then we see you, Steven and Pearl coming into the house as you saw Mordecai and Rigby on the couch.

(Y/N): What's going on here?

Mordecai: Japanese game show.

On TV, a cute purple octupus appears with yellow Japanese words around it; after fooling around once, it gets scolded by a wagging finger; after fooling around twice, it gets punched in the face.

TV Announcer: We now return to... "Fool Me Once, Shame on You. Fool Me Twice, I Punch Your Face!"

Cut to a clapping Japanese audience in a TV studio. A robot who looks like ASIMO, with a green computer screen for a face, appears onscreen holding a microphone.

Announcerbot: Hai! *Japanese for "yes"*I am Announcerbot!

Mordecai: Whoo! Yeah!

Announcerbot: And now here's Shinehara!

Shinehara: Thank you, Announcerbot. I am gamemaster Mitsuru Shinehara. ("MITS!" appears by Shinehara's head) Before break, Clive from U.K. fool me once...

Audience: SHAME... ON... YOU!

Then Benson came in the living room

Mordecai and Rigby: WH-O-O-O-OA!

Benson: What is this?

Mordecai: Japanese game show.

A gong sounds. The same octopus appears, wearing a headband with a rising sun and holding a sign with a number 2 on it

Announcerbot: Round 2!

Then we Shinehara was next to Clive.

Shinehara: Now Clive, try to fool me again.

Clive: Well, I'd like to, Shinehara-san, but you've got some food stuck between your teeth.

Shinehara: Oh! *Covers his mouth* Announcerbot, please, fetch a toothpick.

Clive: Ha ha! Fooled you, mate!

Sirens sound and red alarm lights appear around Clive. The Japanese word for "terrific" (すごい! - sugoi!) appeared on screen.

Clive: Yeeah!

Shinehara: You! Fool! Me! Twice!

Voice: Baka Blitz!

Then we see an obstacle course with a goal at the end.)

Shinehara: You have 10 minutes to reach goal and grab Mystery Prize. But if time runs out or you give up, I punch your face. *Shinehara makes a punching gesture, almost punching Clive's face.*

Rigby: What do you think the Mystery Prize is? I heard it's a bajillion yen, which is like a majillion dollars!

Mordecai: I heard it's an 800-pound tuna. You could buy a house with that in Japan.

Benson: You know what I heard? This show is GARBAGE!

(Y/N): Everyone's a critic.

Clive gets into position. A woman dressed as a cat fires a starting pistol.

Announcerbot: Go!

Clive starts running through the obstacle course.

Mordecai and Rigby: Go! Go! Go! C'mon! Yeah!
