Written and storyboarded by Owen Dennis and Sarah Oleksyk

Mordecai, Rigby, Muscle Man and High-Five Ghost must find a car in order to get burritos from a drive-thru restaurant that serves burritos packed with every cut of meat ever.

Tropes

  • The Alleged Car: Muscle Man claims that he lied about his car being busted so Mordecai and Rigby would stop borrowing it. The following scenes beg to differ. The outside is covered with rust, the seats are covered with cobwebs and dust, and it takes a long time to start the engine. Said engine also falls out of the car, rendering it completely useless.
  • Ambiguous Situation: After the guys' disappointment at the Every Meat Burrito, Rigby says it tastes like chicken. The "every meat" aspect of the Every Meat Burrito could have just been a lie for advertisement and it really is just chicken.
  • Artistic Licence: As this video shows, an actual Every Meat Burrito would not only be expensive to make, and therefore would have cost more than what a fast food place would sell, but very disgusting to eat due to the different tastes of meat mixing and that each one needs to be cooked at a different amount of time.
  • Call-Back: Benson mentions that his car got totaled, and that Rigby knows Mordecai took Margaret to the airport.
  • The Cameo: Chad and Jeremy are seen eating burritos in the Jimbros parking lot.
  • Jerkass: The Jimbro at the window refuses to serve the guys because they’re in a cart and not an actual car. Legally speaking, the cart still qualifies and there should be a window specifically for people to just walk to for the burritos, something he doesn’t at all bring up.
  • Overly Long Gag: Barry continuously screaming and moving slowly and knocking over items in his pad while Mordecai punches him. It goes on for nearly a minute until he stops.
  • Parody: Of the "Kareteci Kız" death scene in particular.
  • Preemptive "Shut Up": Muscle Man shows off his car, only for it to be falling apart and dirty. Rigby goes to make a snide comment, but as he raises his hand, Muscle Man yells "JUST GET IN THE CAR!"
  • The Secret of Long Pork Pies: One of the meats listed in the Every Meat Burrito is "long pig", which is actually an old term for "human flesh".
  • Tastes Like Chicken: What Rigby says about the Every Meat Burritos at the end.
  • Unnecessary Combat Roll: The burrito thief does an overly long and exaggerated one.
