Summary
Ian and Paula are at school eating eggple win sauce, but they notice that's a horribly forced meme. The school bully Shannon appears, as does turtlehat, who then leaves because his presence was a typo. Paula starts babbling bad memes, and Ian is horrified to realize that Shannon is infecting them with forced memes. He panics and runs into W.B. Mason, the principal, who decides to help him. Ian and WB theorize about the origin of the infection, and deduce that it came from Hollywood, who often have outdated references.
Ian's infection worsens, and they have to act fast. He throws WB into the backyard of Holly Wood, who WB for help. Holly prescribes the cure, but is stopped by the sudden appearance of Noriaki Kakyoin, before Kakyoin is dragged away by Fugo. Ian then arrives, still blighted by memes, but his car crashes into flames and melts the pill bottle with the cure in it. They forage for materials, and find a cow, whose milk Ian drinks. In true Minecraft fashion, the milk cures him and the day is saved.
Trivia
- "Eggple win sauce" is an in-joke from a Markov-chain list of fake foods ZiqwerkelSharda generated.
