(A/n: Feeling a little better, still not fully back yet, but I've written the ending of this story. Update every Saturday, hope you enjoy!)

[The episode opens with Richard, Y/n, Gumball, Darwin, and Anais, in their car. Richard has just pulled into a parking spot outside of Elmore Mall, when they are rear-ended by Harold Wilson]

Harold​​: [Exits his vehicle] All right, Richard. I'm gonna need you to move her every hour to keep her in the shade, okay? [Throws his keys in Richard's face]

Richard: [Chuckles nervously] Sure thing, Harry. Uh, Harold?

Harold​​: [Glares at him] Hm?

Richard: [Flinches; timid] Mr. Wilson.

Harold​​: Oh, by the way, you must've heard about my birthday party, I guess.

Richard: Oh, sure. Uh, where is it?

Harold​​: Yeah, I've uh, booked a table at that new Mexican restaurant. It starts at seven, got it?

Richard: Yeah!

Harold​​: Great! Then make sure you don't turn up by mistake. [Snickers]

Richard: [Feebly] Sure.

[The four kids look at each other, puzzled. Inside the mall, the family meets up with Harold again while in the clothing department]

Harold​​: You buying new pants for your wife?

Richard: What?

Harold​​: Well, she's the one wearing them in your relationship, right? [Snickers]

[Richard laughs along, as his kids watch in disapproval. Harold then takes the pants that Richard is carrying, and drops them on the floor]

Harold​​: [Shakes his head] Mm-mm-mnh. [Hands him a feminine pair instead] Try these on. I think they're more you.

[Next, the family goes grocery shopping, with Richard now wearing the tight yellow pants]

Gumball: Dad, is it me, or is this guy kinda being a total thunder jerk to you?

Richard: Oh. [Embarrassed; chuckles] H-He's not that bad.

Y/n: Then why did he steal your pants?

Harold​​: [Over the store's intercom] Do do do. Can Richard Watterson please come to collect his dignity from the front desk? [Snickers]

[They return outside to their vehicle, which was left in the hot sun]

Y/n : I'm sorry. That's not just friendly teasing. [Burns his hand on the trunk latch, though he feels nothing] Hm.. anyways, he's being really mean to you.

Richard: [In denial] No, he's not.

[Harold appears behind Richard and gives him a wedgie, pulling the underwear over his shoulders. Richard whimpers in pain as Harold enters his car, snickering, and drives away. Aggrieved, Gumball and Y/n gesture at the event that just took place]

Richard: What? I just didn't want to have a visible panty line.

Gumball: N-Not that! You need to tell Mom about this.

Richard: [Ashamed] I can't. Your mom sees me as an average looking underachieving slob. It would break her heart to think it was all too good to be true.

Anais: Dad, you need to deal with this like an adult.

Richard: I am dealing with it like an adult. I'm pretending nothing's wrong until I get a chance to cry about it when I'm alone.
