The Remaking of Heroes

It's time for a new beginning. The episode starts with the intro, which shows that the show's graphics have been revamped. The episode zooms in on the setting of Mike's garage. Mike is just your average kid. His best friend Rob seems to be visiting and asks Mike about what he's doing. Mike says he's playing Unforgotten Realms, an RPG, and asks if Rob wants to play. Rob makes a huge list of reasons on the other fun things he can do and why he can't do them, and decides to play. He gets his first disappointment when he realizes that he can't play as a dragon. Instead, he decides to be a dwarf. After insisting that lumberjack is a class and ruining Mike's Limited Edition Rulebook, Rob unwillingly becomes  a sorcerer. He decides to name himself Sirschmoopy of Awesometon (who will be referred to now as Sirschmoopy). After making fun of Mike's wizard: Eluamous Nailo (who we will now call Eluamous) for not having a monocle (it's Rob's belief that all wizards wear monocles), Rob finds out that they're on a quest to save Sirschmoopy's dying grandma. After convincing Rob to make-believe, Rob makes his character search for traps and hidden walls. Mike begins to now argue with Rob and question why he's playing with him. The two go to the town of Cotswell and enter a tavern. Now, things are getting even more heated up, and after Rob deliberately controls an NPC to insult Mike's character, Eluamous tries to cast a fireball at Rob, but misses and hits a nearby rogue, killing him. The duo are then sent to court and sentenced to death by a judge (Judge) who thinks they're lumberjacks. Sirschmoopy's grandmother then dies. Mike ends the show pointing out for the a millionth time he hates Rob.
