  Andrew and Keith get all R-rated with two sleazy adventure games and a matchmaking chat program.

Keith struggles to make himself play horror games, but Andrew actively seeks out chances to step on zombie babies. Problem solved! Johnny Bravo impersonations and monster pet names ensue. Remember kids, nothing makes a game scary like a cheerily sung Mahna Mahna.
