Comedy World: Eric Come Home

[Theme song; title card; cuts to Eric and PC Guy in the kitchen, yelling at each other]

Narrator: Well well, what is this? Eric and PC Guy arguing? Gee, how unusual. Let's see how this will turn out...

PC Guy: It's pronounced "volleyball", not "bolleyball", you simpleton!

Eric: Nuh-uh!

PC Guy: Augh! You and your brain-dead fantasies, Eric!

Eric: I can get a dictionary from your bedroom.

PC Guy: Yeah, yeah, go ahead.

[4 seconds later...]

PC Guy: That was quick.

Eric: Thank cartoon logic.

PC Guy: Anyway, look up "bolleyball" in the dictionary. I'll bet you one buck it's not in there!

Eric: Can you bet me $1.10?

PC Guy: Um... [hesitates] no!

Eric: $2.50?

PC Guy: Alright, alright, fine. [Eric flips through a couple of pages. He looks nervous] Ha! I told you it was "volleyball" all along, you imbecile!

Eric: All I found were the words "bacteri—

PC Guy: See? That's proof that I'm right, and you're wrong!

[Eric goes upstairs to his bedroom and slumps in his bed]

Eric: Man, I hate PC Guy's bossiness! [with a scheming look on his face] Hey, wait a minute. I can always run away. Besides, I've seen it in several cartoons! Wait a minute... what if I get "The Belt"?

[A dream sequence begins. It shows Eric getting whipped by a belt. He starts crying. It ends 8 seconds later]

Eric: Okay, forget that. Mom, dad, and PC Guy won't bother looking for me.

[Eric leaves a note on his computer desk, grabs a bindle stick, and jumps out of the window]

["SMASH! CRACK!"]

[Eric lands in the front yard, bruised]

Eric: That was worth it!

[Cuts to PC Guy in the living room]

PC Guy: I'm glad he's in his bedroom. Peace and quiet shall soothe my nerves.

Narrator: Eleven minutes later.

PC Guy: Eleven minutes passed by? Gee! That's the average length of most episodes of cartoons out there!

Narrator: Twenty minutes later.

PC Guy: Peace and quiet...

Narrator: Fifteen minutes later.

PC Guy: Okay. It's too quiet. [turns the TV on]

Clown: HEEEEEEEEY, BUCKOS! BUTCH THE CLOWN HERE!

PC Guy: What a ripoff. [changes the channel]

Girl #1: IT WAS YOU THAT OVERUSED MY CHERRY LIPSTICK!

Girl #2: YOU LIAR! FOR YOUR INF-

PC Guy: [changes the channel, then looks at the audience] Remember, kids. Never watched TV shows that have a female or two as the protagonist. Hey, what's this?

Announcer: Hello, and welcome! Thank you for tuning into Lakeside City's biggest boxing match! It won't be like any other match. Why? We have real boxes!

PC Guy: Boxing... boxing... ohhh, I get it! I hope the announcer is just being "punny."

[Two muscular men are fighting each other. Their boxing gloves have been replaced with cardboard boxes]

PC Guy: They totally butchered Lakeside City Boxing! I was itching for blood and wounds! [presses the "OFF" button on the remote]
