3	->'''Yellow Guy:''' I'd like to be as smart as a computer!\
4	(Cue an ImagineSpot involving Yellow Guy with an inflated head, sporting the goofiest smile ever)

6	The three friends are playing a board game. They hit upon the question "What is the biggest thing in the world?", and realize they can't agree on an answer. They express their desire to learn about the World, and a globe named Gilbert comes to life. He prepares to sing to them, but Colin, a talking computer, suddenly begins to sing about how clever he is, cutting Gilbert off.
7
8	Red Guy tries to ask Colin if he can solve their question, but the computer instead starts asking the trio a string of increasingly strange and personal questions, despite Red Guy's attempts to get some straight answers from him. Red Guy grows increasingly annoyed with Colin's stalling, until he yells for him to "shut up" and slams his hand on his keyboard. This enrages Colin, and after a black screen with glitches and flashing images depicting Duck Guy, Gilbert the Globe, and a few other references, he promptly takes the characters to the "Digital World", fascinating Yellow Guy and Duck Guy.

10	Yellow Guy and Duck Guy wonders about what it means to have a digital avatar, noting that it is not quite the same as being real. Red Guy, meanwhile, points that it is an interesting question, but asks what you can actually do in the Digital World. Colin explains the three main activities of the Digital World in song -- viewing different graphs, Digital Style, and Digital Dancing. These are repeated until a room becomes populated with distorted dancing clones of Colin, Yellow Guy and Duck Guy. Red Guy finds himself alone in the room where they were at the beginning, with the lights off, and Roy standing in the shadows (although this is not acknowledged), and escapes only to find a film crew wearing spandex suits apparently filming a crude replica of the first episode. Red Guy starts to say "Wait, what--?" before a crewman snaps a clapperboard, whereupon his head suddenly explodes into glitter.
11	----
12	!!Tropes:
13	* AmbiguousSituation: Whether or not Red Guy died in the end. Episode 6 will reveal that he did indeed survive.
14	* AndIMustScream: Colin, Yellow Guy, and Duck Guy are presumably left trapped inside the corrupted world forever in an infinite loop.
15	* CallBack: Duck Guy is left slightly terrified when Colin mentions his proficiency at [[Recap/DontHugMeImScaredTwo telling time]].
16	-->'''Colin:''' And then I'll tell you the time!\
17	'''Duck Guy:''' (''in a panicked voice'') Time?!
18	* ADayInTheLimelight: Red Guy is the main focus this time as he becomes more disillusioned by The-Teacher-Of-The-Week’s song.
19	* DigitalHorror: Losely plays with this on top of its normal DisguisedHorrorStory flavor as a children's cartoon.
20	* GainaxEnding: With hints of a DownerEnding. The digital world deteriorates into a distorted incoherent dance party leaving Yellow, Duck, and Colin (having all their minds presumably destroyed by the virtual world), [[AndIMustScream trapped forever]]. Red Guy manages to escape but stumbles upon a crude recreation set of the first episode filmed by a camera crew. Red says a confused "Wait, what—" and his head suddenly explodes.
21	* LaserGuidedKarma: Colin ends up trapped inside his own rotting digital world.
22	* NiceJobFixingItVillain: As revealed in episode 6, Colin annoying Red Guy is what ultimately makes the latter leave their world.
23	* NoRespectGuy: Colin seems to have it out for Red Guy. Getting the most mad at him and deciding to ruin all of his lines out of spite.
24	* RedHerring: Gilbert the Globe.
25	* RunningGag
26	** Red Guy is continuously interrupted by Colin.
27	** Oats appearing throughout.
28	* SanitySlippage: Yellow Guy, Duck Guy, and Colin all go through this as the deteriorating digital world slowly turns them insane.
29	* WhamEpisode: Red Guy ''supposedly'' dies and Yellow and Duck Guy are still trapped inside Colin's world. Unlike all the previous episodes, this one has no indication that everything went back to normal.
30	* YourHeadAsplode: Red Guy after the ending.
31	----
32	->'''Red Guy''': Wait, what--?\
