Skunked is the twenty-seventh episode of season two (and thirty-ninth episode overall) of Regular Show. It originally aired on July 25, 2011.
Synopsis
Rigby becomes possessed by a curse in which he transforms into a skunk after being sprayed by the infamous creature.
Plot
Mordecai and Rigby are forced by Benson to play "Roadkill Bingo" which involves finding dead animals around the park to mark off a bingo card. After eight hours of searching, they finally complete the bingo by finding a skunk.
Rigby tries to grab the skunk, but finds out that it is still alive when it sprays him. The skunk will not tell Rigby how to get rid of the smell; Rigby calls him a jerk. The skunk and Rigby begin to fight, but Mordecai threatens the skunk with a shovel and he runs off.
Mordecai tells Rigby that he stinks. Rigby is furious and grows in size just like the skunk did, and almost chokes Mordecai to death. Rigby then turns back to normal, but Mordecai thinks the duo should go and see Skips to figure out what's going on.
Skips says that Rigby was sprayed by a were-skunk, and that Rigby will turn into one too if he cannot get the smell off. Skips suggests taking a shower and drinking coffee. Once again Rigby expands in size and hurls Skips to the ground before turning back to normal.
Mordecai and Rigby hurry over to the house, where Rigby then takes a shower with all the cleaning materials in the house. This fails to get rid of the smell. Mordecai tells Rigby that he can't even wash his own hair, so Rigby enlarges once again and throws Mordecai against a wall before turning back to normal.
The duo head to the coffee shop. Mordecai tells Margaret and Eileen about Rigby's problem so they bring him a coffee. This has no effect on Rigby. Eileen suggests pouring it on Rigby; Rigby tries this, but just ends up being scalded. Eileen giggles at the scene. Rigby became upset, so he expands once more and grabs Eileen violently. After seeing how scared Eileen is, he puts her down, turns back to normal, and apologizes, before heading off to the woods in the golf cart to find the were-skunk who sprayed him.
Finding him in a log cabin in the woods, Rigby begs the skunk for information on how to get rid of the smell. The skunk tells Rigby that he hates being the only skunk in town, and wants Rigby to share in his misery. Only by attacking the were-skunk is Rigby able to beat the secret cure out of him: it is pineapple juice.
Rigby has to hurry back to the house to find pineapple juice, but he is growing more skunk-like by the minute, his stench causing the cart to melt. As he runs back to the house the path melts in his wake. Smashing through the door and knocking down Benson, Rigby makes his way to the kitchen and finds the pineapple juice.
After pouring it on himself, Rigby realizes that it didn't work. The skunk catches up to him and laughs that he was lying about the pineapple juice. Arriving shortly after, Mordecai tells Rigby through the locked kitchen door that the real cure is tomato paste. As Mordecai struggles to get inside to help, Rigby and the were-skunk fight fiercely over the paste.
Finally Mordecai crashes the cart through the wall and into the house, ending up pinned under the cart. He is able to toss the paste to Rigby. Just before his transformation is complete he is able to smash the can with a sledgehammer, sending paste flying everywhere. Rigby turns back to normal; so too does the were-skunk, who is revealed to really be a human, he thanks Mordecai and Rigby for changing him into human. Thinking that this still counts as a dead skunk, the duo once again shout, "BINGO!"
