Plot[]
The video starts with Marvin asking Rose what she wants for dinner. Rose says she wants Jellybeans as she pulls out a bag of Jellybeans, which Marvin says Jellybeans aren't a meal for dinner as Jeffy then comes in, singing a version of the Scooby Doo song, which ends with "I want a Scooby Snack now" as Jeffy says he wants "Scooby Snacks", but Marvin says they don't have any. Rose says Jeffy means Jellybeans, which Marvin says he doesn't mean Jellybeans, he wants a "Scooby Snack", which he claims is a dog treat as Jeffy opens his mouth and says "Right here, put it in my mouth". Rose says "Catch" as she then tosses some Jellybeans in Jeffy's mouth, which Jeffy tries catches them as Marvin then tells them to stop as they're making a mess on the Red Couch, which Rose says she's sorry, but then says "Oh look, the news" as the video cuts to the news, with Mr. Goodman reporting that a man was awarded $50 million from Starbucks after he spilled coffee in his lap, suffering serious burns. Goodman then asks if it's real that the guy got $50 million for spilling coffee on himself as he then runs off. After the news, Marvin gets shocked about hearing about the man getting $50 million just by spilling a Starbucks drink on himself as Jeffy then asks where's "Scooby Snacks". The doorbell then rings, which Marvin says "Who's at the door?" as he then leaves to get it, which Marvin opens it to reveal that it's Goodman, holding a Starbucks drink. Marvin asks what's he doing and why he doesn't have his shirt on, which Goodman says he's about to make $50 million. Marvin asks how he's going to make $50 million, which Goodman doesn't answer as he lifts his Starbucks drink and pours it on himself, which shocks Marvin as Goodman tells Marvin to call a lawyer right now as he's about to be so paid. Marvin asks if he's getting paid, but Goodman yells at Marvin, telling him to call a lawyer, which Marvin runs inside as the video cuts to Brooklyn T. Guy, saying "Hey there, what brings you to my lawyer's office today?". Goodman says he would like to sue Starbucks for $50 million as he claims that he was drinking one of their hot coffees and it attacked him. Brooklyn Guy gets confused as he says "It attacked you?", which Goodman says it did as he explains that he was holding the coffee, and when he went to take a sip, he flipped it upside down over his head, and it came gushing out, and burnt his face. Brooklyn Guy asks why did he flip it upside down above his head, which Goodman says it was because he was trying to waterfall it when he was taking a sip as he was planning on sharing his coffee, and he didn't want give anyone else any germs, but the lid wasn't secure, so it got all over his face and burnt it. Brooklyn Guy says it sounds a lot like the other case where the guy burned himself on hot coffee and got $50 million, which Goodman says that's exactly what he's trying to do, but Brooklyn Guy says after that case, they started to secure the lids better, which Goodman says "Well not mine, my lid was not secure cuz look what it did to me". Brooklyn Guy thinks and says it seems too similar to the other case, and the judge is going to throw it out as a frivolous lawsuit. Goodman asks "What about ice coffee" as he slides over a cup of ice coffee. Brooklyn Guy asks "What about it", which Goodman asks what if he were to take a sip of his iced coffee, and then it came out all over his face, and then he gets frostbite or hypothermia because of it being too cold. Brooklyn Guy says he doesn't know, and it sounds like he's just trying to get money, which Goodman says "Exactly!" as he says he wants $50 million so easy, it's like $50 million in 3 seconds just for spilling something on his face. Brooklyn Guy asks if he's already rich, which Goodman says he is, but he can always be richer as Brooklyn Guy then says he doesn't want to be part of it as it seems wrong, but Goodman tells him if he helps him with his lawsuit and he wins $50 million, he'll give him $5 million of the $50 million, which Brooklyn Guy says he's got himself a case if he were to accidentally spill the cold coffee all over himself, which Goodman says "Oh yeah, of course it would be an accident" as he then spills the cold coffee allover himself, which Goodman screams in pain as he says the only thing that will warm him up is $50 million, which Brooklyn Guy says he saw it and it was an accident as he then says "Come on, let's go to court" as he and Goodman then leave.
At the courthouse, Judge Pooby says that today, they will be hearing the case of Goodman, who is suing Starbucks for $50 million because he spilled an ice coffee on himself, and claims he got frostbite because of the drink being too cold. Judge Pooby then asks Goodman to explain, which Goodman says "Ow" as Brooklyn Guy then says he will be representing his client Goodman as he says Goodman is unable to speak due to the injuries caused by the coldness of the iced coffee as he then explains, saying that his client just wanted to start his day with and iced coffee, but instead, he started his day in the hospital in unbearable pain, disfigured from the severe frostbite and brain freeze. Brooklyn Guy then says "Starbucks should be not be serving their iced coffees that cold", which Judge Pooby thinks and asks if the coffee was really that cold to cause frostbite, which Brooklyn Guy says it was, and he brought an iced coffee for him to touch as he then hands the iced coffee to Judge Pooby, which Judge Pooby says "Let me see this here" as he takes the lid off and touches the ice coffee, which he feels the coldness of the iced coffee as he says "That is quite chilly". Judge Pooby then asks "Mr. Starbucks lawyer" what he has to say about it. Steve Staleburger introduces himself as a representative of Starbucks as he says "This is utterly ridiculous your honor" as he claims that it's a clear cash grab, and a frivolous lawsuit just to get millions of dollars as he then says their iced coffees are no colder than any other drink. Judge Pooby says "I don't know, this is making my hands quite cold while holding it", which Steve says even if the drink is cold, it's not their fault that the plaintiff spilled the drink onto himself as he says once the drink leaves their store, it's no longer their problem and he should have been more careful while handling the drink, but Brooklyn Guy calls objection, saying "They're telling me if I go to a bar and get drunk and drive him and kill someone, it's my fault, not the bar's fault for selling me the alcohol?" as he then says Starbucks needs to understand that if it wasn't for them selling coffee, his client wouldn't of went there to get coffee, and therefore wouldn't have spilled the drink on himself, causing lifelong injuries. Judge Pooby says it is true as he says if Starbucks never sold coffee, they wouldn't be having the conversation, but Steve tells Judge Pooby to use common sense as he says they just settled a lawsuit over their drinks being too hot, now the man is claiming that their drinks are now too cold, which he says doesn't make any sense as he asks if they should only serve room temperature drinks. Judge Pooby says it would be icky as Brooklyn Guy asks if he has any children, which Judge Pooby says "I do not, but IU do have a 5-year-old poodle name Porkchop, and I love her dearly" as Brooklyn Guy then says he has a daughter and asks what would happen they let their children and Porkchop grow up in a world without consequences, which he says without consequences, people would steal, murder, and pillage, which he says it is just an iced coffee, but then says "What will Starbucks get away with next? Rat poison in their Caramel Macchiato? Cyanide in their Cinnamon Dolce Latte? Ryson in their pup cups?" as he then says if they lay the hammer on them now, it will stop them from feeling like their invincible. Judge Pooby sheds a tear as he then says "Starbucks! How dare you! You bastards want to poison Porkchop?", which Steve says he can assure him that they're not trying to poison their customers, but Judge Pooby tells Steve to look at Porkchop as he claims that he wants to see her foaming at the mouth and want to take his only happiness away. Steve says no, but Judge Pooby says he has enough as he says he finds Starbucks guilty of gross negligence, and improperly serving their iced coffees too iced as he says he awards the victim $50 million, and orders Starbucks to make sure that they don't their coffees too hot or too cold, make sure that the lids are hot glued and taped on, and have warning label on the cups, saying that the drinks are going to be hot or cold and handle to care, and train their employees on how to serve the drinks properly as he then taps his gavel, saying the case is dismissed. Steve is upset about him losing the case while Goodman and Brooklyn Guy celebrate them winning the case, which they celebrate for some time as they then leave.
The video then cuts to the Red Couch, where Rose asks Marvin who was at the door a few days ago, which Marvin says it was Goodman. Rose asks what did Goodman want, which Marvin says Goodman poured a hot Starbucks coffee on his face because he was trying to sue them to get $50 million. Rose asks if he got the money, which Marvin says he doesn't know, and he hasn't heard from him as Rose says "Marvin look, the news", which Marvin looks as the video cuts to the news, with Goodman saying that that he is paid as he reports that he just won $50 million for suing Starbucks as he explains he was drinking an iced coffee, and it gave him frostbite from how cold it was as he says "How dare them, poor me!". Goodman then says the good thing with his new $50 million is that he was able to buy a new face, and they can't tell anything happened as he says he's still suffering. Goodman then says he hopes that Starbucks learned their lesson so other people don't have to suffer like him. After the news, Marvin gets shocked as he says "Oh my god, he actually did it, he got 50 million dollars by pouring a Starbucks drink on his face" as Brooklyn Guy and Goodman then come in, holding money up to their faces, being excited about being paid. Rose says all three of them have the same hair and mustache color, but Goodman says "Don't compare me to poor people, I'm rich". Brooklyn Guy says he has $5 million, but Goodman says it's still upper-lower class, and he's richer. Marvin then says they committed fraud and got a bunch of money from it, but Brooklyn Guy says no and they won the money legally while Goodman says it's not fraud and he suffered as he points to Marvin, saying "You saw me pour a hot coffee on my face". Goodman then points to Brooklyn Guy, saying "You saw me pour an iced coffee on my face" as he then says he should actually get $100 million. Goodman then says what he's going to do is he's going to go to Starbuck, get a hot coffee, "boof" it, and then says it was too hot for his butt, and then he can get $150 million. Brooklyn Guy agrees, saying it's a good idea and they should do it, but Marvin doesn't agree, saying they're taking money from people who actually suffered while he poured it on his on purpose. Goodman says he did suffer as Marvin then scoffs and says they got so much money for no reason. Brooklyn Guy then asks Goodman to ask him what he's going to do with his $5 million, which Goodman does so as Rose asks if he's going to give it to Charity, but Brooklyn Guy says no as the money is reserved for the hooker he wants, which he says some of them might be named Charity, and then he will give to Charity, being his "seed" on her face, and she'll smile from his stacks of cash, otherwise she'll be mortified as he then asks Goodman what he's going to do with his $50 million, which Goodman says he's get a "blumpkin" from Melania Trump, eat a Ostrich wiener, eat a Jellyfish wiener sashimi, and invest in the S&P 500 because S&P 500 is doing bad, and then when it goes back up, "yummy" as he then says "You think I'm paid now? You should see my money when I get the S&P 500 to go back up". Marvin then says they're just talking about the fun stuff with their money while he's just sitting there while being poor. Brooklyn Guy says "Yeah Marvin, get in the fast lane, commit fraud" as Marvin then asks if he can, which Brooklyn Guy says anyone can do it as he and Goodman then leave. Marvin asks if he really should go to Starbuck and pour coffee on his face for money, but Rose says no, it's ridiculous and Biggie said "More money, more problems". Marvin then says he's going to Starbucks to get a drink as he then leaves. The video then cuts to the kitchen, where Marvin says "Okay, 50 million dollars, here I come" as he pours his Starbucks coffee on his face, which Marvin spits some out of his mouth, saying it was not hot at all, it was like room temperature, and he's not hurt at all as he then leaves, saying he'll try to sue them. The video then cuts to Marvin, saying "I did it" as he walks onto the Red Couch. Rose gets shocked as she says "Marvin, we've talked about this, blackface is wrong", which Marvin says he spilled coffee on his face, and it didn't even burn him as he says it was like room temperature. Rose asks Marvin why would he do it, which Marvin says he wanted $50 million, it didn't burn his face, and it was room temperature as Rose says "Marvin look, the news", which Marvin looks at the video cuts to the news, with Steve saying that he's representing Starbucks, and he's here to make a statement on their behalf as he says that Starbucks will no longer be selling drinks, hot or cold, and from now on, all their drinks will be room temperature so nobody can get injured, and no one will sue them again. After the news, Marvin angerly asks if he poured coffee on his face for no reason, which Rose nods yes as Jeffy comes in, saying "Hey Michael Jackson!" as he then says "Hehe" in a high-pitched voice.
