"Last Last One Forever and Ever" was made as a special "live action" episode with the majority of the episode taking place in a live-action set. This episode features comedian H. Jon Benjamin as a live-action version of Master Shake named Don Shake; recording artist T-Pain portrayed a live-action version of Frylock,[2] and a "brownish" exercise ball was used to portray Meatwad.[3] It also featured David Long, Jr., who portrayed the role of their neighbor, Carl Brutananadilewski, after winning an open casting call sponsored by Burger King to fill the role.[4]


Then-Adult Swim vice president Mike Lazzo considered not airing it on television. This episode received a mixed review from Jonah Krakow of IGN, and was the third highest rated program on the night of its original debut. This episode has been made available on DVD, and other forms of home media, including on demand.

Plot[edit]

Frylock discovers that the water in the area is flammable; he tries to warn Master Shake, who is drinking from a hose, and Meatwad, who is bathing at a car wash, which leads to it exploding. Shake and Frylock go next door to warn Carl, who is standing in his pool with sticks of dynamite, but Carl ignores their warning as he farts into the pool, causing a huge explosion seen from outer space.


The scene transitions to a live-action shot of Frylock reading a script, which describes the events that previously transpired, written by "Don" Shake; it is dismissed by Frylock as "terrible". It is soon revealed that Shake has made several attempts to write stories but has failed to receive any compensation, despite promising ten-percent of his future earnings to his roommate. Frylock, growing frustrated with Shake for his lack of income, warns him he needs to leave the house. Meanwhile, Shake goes to the "exercise room" in Frylock's home and sits down next to an exercise ball, from which comes the voice of Meatwad. Shake shares his feelings about Frylock and his method of writing stories; in turn, Meatwad agrees to help Shake write a story, which contains elements taken verbatim from the children's program SpongeBob SquarePants.


Later, while at work at Dr. Weird's Castle (a shoddy children's pay venue consisting of several bouncy castles inside a run down warehouse), Shake seeks an opinion from Carl on the story, and is advised to add scenes with lesbians and women's breasts. Shake heads back to Meatwad to talk more about the story, who reacts to the changes with adamant disapproval. Following Frylock entering the room to exercise and then leaving, Meatwad advises Shake to kill Frylock with a sword in the closet. Shake is then seen sneaking across to Frylock, who is on Craigslist looking for a new roommate, with Meatwad holding up the sword. When Frylock turns toward Shake, Shake nicely offers the sword to Frylock, saying "Here's your sword, I found it in my room". Afterwards, Shake gets an idea for the ending to his story.


The scene transitions back to animation, in which the trio is seen putting their things into a moving truck, and saying goodbye to Carl. Shake says his final words to Carl, and as the camera slowly focuses on Carl, he solemnly intones, "Truly, they were an Aqua Teen Hunger Force." Shake then drives the moving truck slowly away with the emergency brake on while Carl angrily shouts at him for it. As the credits roll, the live-action Carl is seen standing in Dr. Weird's Castle, and soon pumps his fist while shouting one of his famous catchphrases: "Tonight!" The episode ends on somewhat of a cliffhanger, with the storyline being continued in the season seven episode "Rabbot Redux" and the screening says ''The End''.

Reception[edit]

In its original American broadcast on May 31, 2009, "Last Last One Forever and Ever" was watched by 824,000 viewers, making it the third most watched Adult Swim program of that night, behind a repeat of The Simpsons and a new episode of Robot Chicken.[10] Jonah Krakow of IGN gave the episode a six out of ten which is considered "great", calling it "best episode ever" and saying that "the show lost focus and failed to deliver the one thing that has kept it going for six seasons: jokes".[6]
