On the TV, it shows a tan baseball player, a green baseball player, and a fire pit. The green baseball player releases a projectile and the tan baseball player jumps into the fire pit. (Y/n), Mordecai, Rigby, Muscle Man, HFG, and Thomas, who is still in his pizza costume, are playing together. They all groan in disappointment. Then everyone stares at Thomas. "I told you to jump over the fire pit Thomas, not fall into it." Muscle Man said. "Happy Park-iversarry!" Pops said. He runs into the living room with gifts, laughing. "What's a Park-iversarry?" Thomas asked the trio.

"Dude, "Park-Anniversary". Just break it down." Rigby said. "Pops is gonna give out really lame gifts, but just pretend like you like it or you'll hurt his feelings." (Y/n) whispers to Thomas. "Hey, Pops! Happy Park-iversarry!" (Y/n) said to Pops afterwards. "I come bearing gifts! I've picked out just the right presents for all of you." Pops gives presents to Muscle Man, HFG, and Thomas. "Oh, I can't wait!" Pops waves his arms. "Open them! Open them!" He said. Muscle Man pulls out a can. "Oh ho! Gag Peanut Brittle where a snake pops out!" He opens the can of peanut brittle with his eyes closed, but nothing comes out.

"...Or regular peanut brittle. Thanks, Pops." Muscle Man said. Fives goes through his bag to find green socks with red toe tips, a smiley face, and a text saying "Be Smiley" "Wow! Novelty socks." Fives said. Thomas pulls out a mermaid figurine. "A mermaid statue made of shells? Man, this is... this is..." Thomas looks over at (Y/n) for a moment for help on what to say, a hint of panic in his eyes, and she sighs and face palms slightly before she mouths "neat" he nods at her before looking back at Pops. "Super neat! Thanks, Pops!" He said. "When in doubt, buy shells." Pops said, and Thomas sighs in relief, then gives (Y/n) a grateful smile.

Pops ducks down. Now for (Y/n), Mordecai and Rigby's gifts." He said. He lifts up three gift bags. "I think you're really going to like these." (Y/n), Mordecai and Rigby grab their gifts. Rigby begins ripping the wrapping paper. He sees a box with the text "TANTS CO." in red and sees a man eating a turkey with tants on. He begins reading the text on the box. "'Tants. Dare to dine anywhere with flare in Tants!" "The pants that are also a table!" Rigby said. "Uh, they're great, Pops." Mordecai said.

"Yeah, thanks, Pops." Rigby said. "We love them!" (Y/n) said. Pops laughs. "Wonderful! I knew they'd be a hit. Well, I still have gifts for Skips and Benson. Happy Park-iversarry" Everyone says bye to Pops as he exits the room. "What are we gonna do with 'tants'?" Mordecai asked. "Also, your acting (Y/n)? Was a little over the top." Rigby said, and (Y/n) scoffs. "Like you could do better." She snapped. "I think you hit the jackpot this year. Those tants are pretty fresh," Muscle Man pulls the 'nice' gesture. "You know, I could take those tants off your hands for ya. Free of charge." He said.

"I don't know..." (Y/n) said. "What do you mean? You don't really like it, do you?" Rigby asked her. "Well no, but..." she began. "Then just hand it over. No harm done." Rigby said, and (Y/n) sighs. "Fine..." "Yeah, sure. Go for it." Rigby said to Muscle Man. "A wise decision, bro." Muscle Man said. "I hope so..." (Y/n) said. Later Mordecai is playing video games and Rigby is spectating as (Y/n) watches. Pops enters the room. "Ta-daaa." He is wearing the tants. "Woahhh, what are you wearing?" Mordecai asked.

Pops spins so they can get a glimpse. "Tants! I'm wearing tants! You must have not tried them on yet." He said. The trio laugh awkwardly. "Yeah, you got us." They said. "You know, I didn't want to make a big deal in front of the others, but I gave extra-heart into picking out your presents." Pops said. "Really?" Rigby asked in confusion. "Oh yes! I wanted to use the Park-iversarry as an opportunity to thank you for being such good friends to me." Pops said. (Y/n) covers her face in her paws in guilt and her best friends look at her with concern for a moment. "I thought we could all wear our tants and have lunch together!" Pops said.

"Oh..." (Y/n) said. "Uhhh, we...uh...kinda-don't...have the tants...anymore." Mordecai said. Pops makes a whining sound after hearing the response, crinkling his face so it looks like he's going to cry. "Oh no..." (Y/n) whispers. "We gave the tants-" Mordecai continued. Pops is on the brink of a tantrum. "-Uh-huh, we gave the tants-" tears well up in Pops' eyes. "We gave them to the dry cleaners!" Rigby shouted. "-uh, yeah-yeah! We took them to the dry cleaners to make sure they would be clean the first time we'd try them on!" (Y/n) said quickly. Pops immediately recovers from his to-be tantrum and gasps in relief. "Good show!
