When Dr. Eggman discovers that he has no friends on social media, he creates Scrambler, his own social media network.

----

!! This episode provides examples of:

* AgonyOfTheFeet: Eggman helps Redd Heron move his boxes into his new home in exchange for the latter being his third [=FriendSpace=] friend, only to find out that the latter's computer is in one of the boxes and won't have internet hooked up for a few weeks at the least. Eggman drops Redd's boxes on Redd's foot upon hearing this.
* BlackComedy: Dave repeatedly hits the Old Monkey with his car. [[BloodlessCarnage There's no blood]] and the monkey doesn't get harmed, but still.
* BlandNameProduct: The social media networks in this episode include [[Website/MySpace FriendSpace]], Snarkchat, and [[Website/{{Twitter}} Scrambler]].
* ChainLetter: Both the title and premise of this episode. Eggman gets one from [=FriendSpace=] in his email account and is advised to forward it to three friends or be cursed with bad luck forever.
* DiscreditedMeme: An InUniverse example;
-->'''Sonic''': Dude, this meme is like five years old!
* HelpingGrannyCrossTheStreet: In an attempt to get the Old Monkey to be his third friend on [=FriendSpace=], Eggman helps him cross the street. When Eggman asks the Old Monkey to send him a friend request on [=FriendSpace=], the Old Monkey gets confused and Eggman leaves him in the middle of the road, where he gets run over by Dave's car.
* TheInternetIsForCats:
** This line from Sonic:
-->'''Sonic:''' Another cat video?
** Later...
-->'''Amy''' ''(laughing)'' A cat with a bag on its head?
* OnlyUsefulAsToiletPaper: A variant; when Sonic complains to Tails, Knuckles, and Amy about Eggman messaging him non-stop, Tails tells Sonic to ignore him, the way Meh Burger ignores their customer complaint forms. Dave tells Tails that he isn't ignoring the complaint forms, but rather using them as a substitute if they run out of napkins. After Sonic squeezes his drink when Eggman messages him for the umpteenth time, Dave tells him that he'll need a two-ply to clean it up, and offers him many complaint forms from a single customer.
* PhoneAHolicTeenager: The Rabbit Girl that Eggman tries to get to be his third [=FriendSpace=] friend is constantly on her phone.
* ShoutOut: Sonic plays a game of soccer with his friends. At one point, when he is about to kick the soccer ball, Dr. Eggman snatches it from him the way Lucy does to Charlie Brown in ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}, causing the hedgehog to fall on his back and say "Good grief!".
* StartMyOwn: After Sonic bans Eggman's friend request, Eggman decides to start his own social media network called Scrambler.
* TakeThat: This episode pretty much satires social media, such as Eggman repeatedly sending messages to Sonic, a jab at TheInternetIsForCats, and a scene of almost everyone looking down at their cell phones.
