In Jaime and Rock's apartment; Rock was in the living room reading a newspaper as Jaime walked to the door.
"Okay Rock, now I'm going to go to work. Just stay out of trouble until I get back." said Jaime.
"That's very unlikely." said Rock.
"I know." said Jaime.
He left the apartment.
Rock sighed.
"This is boring already." said Rock, "Can't even find a job on this planet to keep people off of my back."
A knocking sound was heard and Rock walked to the door and looked through the peep hole to see Ray, Jackie, and Ed on the other side.
He put his emo hair over his left eye up and opened the door.
"DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Ray, Jackie, and Ed screamed.
"Never show us that very ugly eye whenever we show up." said Jackie, "It's to disturbing to look at."
Rock groaned.
"I'm trying to be more open." said Rock.
Ray flipped the emo hair back over Rock's left eye, covering it up.
Ed gulped.
"Please don't do that again." said Ed.
"Anyways, what can I do for you?" said Rock.
"Well, Sonic and Edd wound up in a place called the Mysterious Institute for Troubled Boys, and we have no idea where it's at." said Jackie.
Rock nodded.
"Alright, come on in." said Rock.
The group walked into the apartment as Rock closed the door.
"So, any ideas on why?" said Rock.
"Not a clue, but odds are that Edd's doing terribly while Sonic is having the time of his life." said Ray.
In the M.I.T.B; Sonic was karaoke singing.
Edd was currently looking at blue print's for the entire building.
"This might work." said Edd.
He looked at an air vent and opened it up before climbing into it.
Later; the sock headed Ed managed to climb out of the air vent to the outside of the building, only to see some guards looking at him.
Edd chuckled nervously.
Sonic was next to the pool table eating a chili dog when Edd fell into the ball pit.
"First try at escaping?" said Sonic.
"Yeah unfortunatly." said Edd.
"Look, just forget about trying to escape and enjoy yourself. This place has jawbreakers." said Sonic.
Edd sighed.
"Well I do love Jawbreakers." He said.
Later; the two were sitting at a table.
Sonic was eating some ice cream with hot fudge syrup while Edd was sucking on a jawbreaker in his mouth.
"Question, how is it your able to fit a huge jawbreaker in your mouth, and how does your cheek get so big when you do pull off such a feat?" said Sonic.
Edd turned to Sonic.
"I've been wondering that myself. Trust me on this though my friend Eddy loves a certain kind of Jawbreaker from another country." Said Edd.
Sonic nodded.
"Right." said Sonic.
Edd started looking at the blue prints again.
Sonic rolled his eyes.
"Seriously?" said Sonic.
"I'm not even fit to be in a place like this." said Edd.
"No duh, you're not even physically fit." said Sonic.
Edd glared at him.
"You don't look fit either." said Edd.
"I run hour long marathons in only seconds or minutes." said Sonic.
Edd sighed.
"Look, I just want to get out of this place fast." said Edd.
Sonic laughed.
"Of course you do, but I don't." said Sonic.
"Just help me break out of this place and you can return to what you want to do." said Edd.
Sonic laughed
"Sure thing Double D." said Sonic.
Back in Rock and Jaime's apartment; Rock was doing some work on a computer.
Rock yawned.
"There's nothing about this M.I.T.B place." said Rock.
"Try hacking the government mainframe." said Ray.
Jackie and Ed turned to Ray confused.
"What, he's got lots of clearence." said Ray.
"I doubt he has that kind of clearence." said Jackie.
"Done." said Rock.
Everyone became shocked.
"According to this; the Mysterious Institute for Troubled Boys was developed by the government some hundred years ago as a reform school that abused all the boys who went into becoming well behaved." said Rock.
"Wow, and people give villains a hard time for showing no concern for innocent lives." said Ray.
"Yeah." said Ed.
"But thirty years later, the institute changed it's ways by giving the boys who showed up tons of love." said Rock.
"What is this, Paddington 2?" said Jackie.
Ray shook his head.
"Anything on where the place is at?" said Ray.
"Nope, technically it doesn't even exist. One of the American government's well kept secrets." said Rock.
Ray growled.
'Well, another dead end." said Ray.
Rock saw something and became shocked.
"Hold on, take a look at this." said Rock.
Everyone looked at the computer and saw mug shots of two characters who looked like Sonic and Edd, but the two had eye patches over their left eyes.
"Hey, that guy looks like Double D." said Ed.
"Yeah but he's muscular and has a metal arm." Said Ray.
"And take a look at the Sonic looking guy." said Jackie, "He's got robotic legs."
Ed nodded.
"I'm getting a bit of a Darth Maul vibe from this guy." said Ed.
Rock became confused and turned to Jackie.
The skateboarding girl just shook her head.
"He's a character from Star Wars Prequel Series." Said Jackie.
"Right." said Rock.
"But why would Sonic and Edd end up in that institute?" said Ray.
The group did some thinking.
Ed snapped his fingers.
"I've got it, Sonic and Edd were mistaken for those two nut jobs." said Ed.
Everyone glared at Ed.
"You seriously think that?" said Jackie.
"No, I know that." said Ed.
Ray nodded.
"Okay, but what're we going to do now?" said Ray, "We've got to find this institute and these other bozo's who look like our friends."
Rock laughed.
"Don't worry about that, I'll search for the institute, just find the trouble makers." said Rock.
"Right." said Ray.
He walked to the window and climbed out onto the fire escape.
"Couldn't have used the door?" said Rock.
