Plot synopsis[edit]
The segment starts with a toy mechanical tricertops appearing on Club Mario, with Tommy Treehugger mentioning that his and Co-MC is on the air. He then welcomes the viewer to their show, explaining that the triceratops, along with similar toys, will appear on their show today. The phone then rings, prompting Tommy to pick it up. He then asks where Co-MC is, and learns that he is a barbecue at MC Hammer's house. Tommy explains that he has a barbecue at Club Mario, before continuing by saying that his evil twin brother, Evil Eric, was at Club Mario last week, who turned him into a fern, explaining that he had a terrible weekend due to this. He then continues on by saying that there will be some serious reprimanding on Monday, before explaining that he does not want hear anymore of his excuses. He then tells the viewer that he does not believe Co-MC's excuse, explaining that he is up to mischief again, before giving a synopsis of The Legend of Zelda episode "Cold Spells," explaining that it involves Link calling out sick, pretending to have a cold, which he remarks is similar to Co-MC. He then tells the viewer that they will be doing some "satellite surfing," but suddenly notices Evil Eric, who is popping out from behind the TV. Because of this, he decides to watch Spaced Out Theater instead.
On Spaced Out Theater, Princess Centauri explains that she and her viewers left off with Bhodi Li and his partners trying to cheer up a depressed king, though mentions that Bhodi Li was about to be zapped himself. She then shows several clips from the Photon episode "No Laughing Matter." After showing the clips, Princess Centauri then comments that she is glad that the planet Gafar is safe for vacationers again, explaining how she hates it when a nice resort goes downhill. She then asks her viewers to see her next week, where she will have her hair done by an octopus.
Later, Evil Eric is playing with a Mario doll, which he makes punch a Hulk action figure. Tommy welcomes the viewer back to his show, explaining that he is stuck with Evil Eric, but admits that he is quite entertaining right now with him controling the Mario doll to beat up all of the "bad guy" action figures. He then explains that all of the action figures on their show are Horizon models coming from Los Angeles, explaining that they come a specific box including all of the pieces needing to assemble the action figure. He continues on by saying that one puts the pieces together to assemble the action figure, and can paint them any color they want, though mentions that the Silver Surfer will always be silver. Tommy then informs the viewer that their inclusion of these action figures is technically a violation of standard merchandising procedures, as he and Evil Eric are cross-promoting with other products. However, Evil Eric counters this, saying that Club Mario is his show, before Tommy corrects him by saying that Club Mario is their show, explaining that they can do what they want. Tommy explains some of the electronic toys on the set, saying that one can assemble one in about a half hour and, once assembled, begin working. The camera then zooms out to show cheering on a mechanical dragon toy as towards a mechanical scorpion and the triceratops shown earlier in the episode.
Tommy then explains that he and Evil Eric are going to have a barbecue, explaining that it is "barbecue day." He then explains that he will be having a delicious muffin for lunch, and asks Evil Eric what he will have. Evil Eric explains that, since he would not buy him some sloppy joes, he brought some "gator chowder" and "gator sauce." Tommy is surprised by this statement, though Evil Eric explains that he killed an alligator to get the chowder and the sauce. Tommy finds this horrendous, and then tells the viewer that, while they are preparing the barbecue, they will be going "satellite surfing." He then "satellite surfs" to channel showing Gatorworld, where one of the park workers how they take their alligators with their mouths shut. He then explains that they do not bite people at all, but if he gets little too close, there is no telling what would happen.
The scene cuts back to Club Mario, where Tommy mentions how much of a "killer" session his "satellite surfing" was. He then tells the cameraman to pan up to him and Evil Eric. After Tommy flies the Silver Surfer action figure over the grill after opening its lid, Evil Eric remarks that his "gator sauce" takes great. Tommy then remarks that he and Evil Eric had a wonderful show today, explaining that they had the Horizon action figures, with him also adding that Evil Eric was well-behaved today, unlike how he usually is. After thanking him for being on the show, he then points to the camrea, telling Co-MC that it does not matter if he decides to take more time off. He then says goodbye to the viewer, telling them that he hopes to see them later, "where the airwaves are [his] waves," with Evil Eric finishing the sentence. However, this leads to an argument between them over who the airwaves belong to.
