Tim and Ben discuss submitting a deliberately absurd, nonsensical sketch to TBS's Tournament of Laughs, recalling how TBS editors previously butchered their footage, and ask fans to vote.
- Tim explains they submitted an intentionally ridiculous sketch to the TBS Tournament of Laughs as a dare to put it on television.
- Previous sketch with Devon at a dinner table had all its context removed by TBS editors, destroying the premise.
- New sketch submitted is so absurdly nonsensical it rivals Freddy Got Fingered but makes even less sense.
- Tim notes that every sketch they've submitted has made sense until TBS's editing decisions ruined them.
- Tim says he doesn't care about the competition—he just wants to watch gypsies get married and get Postmates orders on time.
- TBS sent Tim a promo to share but didn't include him in it, so he refused to promote a show his fans won't want to watch.
- Tim predicts the television industry will take a major financial hit and most people currently employed in it shouldn't have jobs.
- If they advance to round four, the abomination sketch will air; otherwise they'll release the raw footage on the show.
- Their strategy is to deliberately confuse and puzzle TBS's editors with incomprehensible footage that forces them to figure out what to do with it.
