Red vs. Blue vs. Rooster Teeth
The Crew prepare to meet their maker.
"Now, I know it's been a while since we covered it, but, for this last piece I'd like to bring up the whole Multiverse Theory again. See, I was digging through my archives and I found something ca-razy. I mean, seriously dude, C-A-R-AZY. It's a theory about a universe where Red Vs. Blue is just a cartoon! Made by a bunch of losers in Texas! Heh, I mean, talk about far-fetched! But still, seemed entertaining enough, so let's just humor the idea."

An accident combined with some messing around ends up bringing Reds and Caboose into Rooster Teeth headquarters. Hilarity Ensues.
Tropes
- Actor Allusion:
- Barbara punches Tucker in a manner reminiscent of her RWBY character Yang.
- Joel's pechant for discussing investing in gold appears in his scene with Caboose.
- Adam Westing: The staff are doing exaggerated versions of themselves, including Miles Luna as a showrunner focused on making the show more complex.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Each actor is dressed in the color of the character they're voicing (Burnie = Brown, Matt = Red, Joel = Blue, Gus = Maroon, Geoff = Orange).
- Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Lopez's speech to Burnie.[The man that created me brought us all here, and now we seem to be stuck. I want to finish my mission knowing that we did the best work we possibly could, and we never compromised our integrity. Now, after fourteen years, it is time, finally, to go home.]
- Noodle Implements: The machinima kill switch, an energy drink, and a machine built by the Reds and Blues end up causing their arrival in the real world.
- Product Placement: Of a fictional "Rocket Rooster" energy drink.
- Pun: "Joel?" "Hey, man!"
- Real-World Episode: The Reds and Blues are brought into the Rooster Teeth offices.
- Roger Rabbit Effect: The Blood Gulch crew appears in the real world in high quality computer graphics.
- The Scream: Miles, Kyle and Josh scream in horror at the Reds and Blues appearing before them, before rushing out of the offices.
- Self-Deprecation: It's the Reds being their usual obnoxious selves to their creators and voice-actors. What do you think is gonna happen?
- Shock Site: As Joel is messing up with a few browser histories, Matt suggests one of those to him before they're interrupted.
- That Came Out Wrong: This exchange, not helped by how Josh is Black:Miles: Guys! Look, Tucker's black when he comes out of the teleporter, OK? It's not important, because black lines don't matter!
Josh: Boy, what the fuck is that supposed to mean?! - Trapped in TV Land: The end of the episode returns the Reds and Blues to their world... along with Burnie.
