"The adventures of Flowerman and Pollen will continue next week !". The voice over on the TV screamed as the closing credits began to roll.
"ah man, that show rocks ! we should totally make super hero costumes" chirped Rigby.
"Dude that's an awesome idea", agreed Mordecai, "we would make awesome crime fighters !..."
They both heard someone coming down the stairs behind them.
"Oh ! What is happening here Mordecai and Rigby ?" said Pops as he entered the room.
"Hey Pops, we were just saying how we would make awesome crime fighters", answered Mordecai.
"Oh really ? How wonderful ! Did you two know that in my youth I also used to be good at that ?"
"no way Pops", shouted Rigby.
"It is quite true - I have photos to prove it; I shall go to retrieve my photographic album. I will be right back !". With that, Pops ran out of the room, laughing as he went.
Mordecai and Rigby exchanged glances but before they could move, Pops returned. He flicked through his large old album as he walked.
"Ah, here is the page !" He said, as he let them see the pictures.
"Erm, what is this supposed to be Pops ?.." Mordecai asked hesitantly.
The picture showed a much younger Pops, dressed in an apron, wearing rubber gloves and carrying a toilet plunger.
"It is I !", Pops exclaimed - clearly pleased with himself, "I used to be quite the grime fighter...my counter tops were always shiny"
"we we're talking about CRIME fighters, Pops"
"Oh my, I never used to break the law, I can assure you !". Pops looked immediately worried.
"Whatever Pops", continued Mordecai, "so who's in ?. We will work on our costumes tonight, and meet back here tomorrow morning - agreed ?"
"hmmm hmmm", nodded Rigby
"Oh ! What a wonderous notion !", exclaimed Pops, "see you fellows tomorrow then" and he ran back out of the room.
