Added DiffLines:

* TakeOurWordForIt: We don't know specifically what the final solid Rigby made Mordacai do was. But it was apparently very humiliating for him, involving him sitting on the floor and making weird noises while doing something off-screen with nearly everyone but Rigby watching with looks of shock and/or disgust.

* BadDate: Rigby forces Mordecai to ruin his first ever date with Margaret. He also obnoxiously sandbags his own date with Eileen, even inviting Muscle Man and Hi Five Ghost to crash it.
* ButtMonkey: Mordecai finally gets a date with Margaret! Only for Rigby to ruin it at every opportunity in ways exclusively to hurt Mordecai. This culminates in Rigby almost getting Mordecai and everyone else killed, and Mordecai's the one supposedly being unreasonable. And Mordecai finds out Margaret was only there as a favor to Eileen.
