Drugs

Drugs is the third episode of HTML: The Animated Series. In this episode, the kcarc epidemic hits Malware City, so Spyware Industries, in collaboration with the MCPD, is offering part-time jobs to those who are able to rid the drug off the streets.
==Plot==
The episode opens with a Tony Montana look-alike driving around in an ice cream van, selling ice cream to numerous bikers and grown men and the police eventually become suspicious. Their suspicions are put to a rest, however, when a local mobster approaches the van and shoots the driver at point-blank range. The ice cream man wasn't actually selling ice cream, but instead drugs, specifically kcarc kocaine.
The board of directors of Spyware Industries believe that kcarc kocaine causes an intense high, which could very well ruin their business (Spyware Industries despises anything creative, exciting, or entertaining). As a result, Spyware Industries immediately attempts to get the Malware City Police Department's approval of their plan to get the drug off the street. The corrupt and sinister Commissioner Carl approves of their plan, which is to offer part-time jobs to those who are able to confiscate the drug.
After hearing this news, Bobby is excited as he believes he can work his way up from a part-time job back to his regular position at Spyware Industries. W3 Source questions how Bobby would be able to confiscate kocaine from dangerous thugs and criminals alike, and Bobby responds with a simple shrug and leaves. After Bobby leaves, Source turns on the television and begins watching the Channel 6 News, where Commissioner Carl is giving a speech about the kcarc epidemic. Commissioner Carl covers many irrelevant topics and barely discusses the dangerous epidemic until the end of his speech, where he states (with a devious smirk) that all the confiscated kcarc will safely be kept at the MCPD HQ.
Bobby returns later that night woozy and light-headed and he eventually collapses, and Source discovers that he got shot in his butt numerous times. Bobby wakes up the next morning with his bullet wounds stitched, courtesy of W3 Source. Source then leaves the apartment suspicious, and stalks Commissioner Carl nearly the whole day. Eventually, Carl leads a vice squad and busts numerous drug dealers, and Source begins to think Carl is a legitimate officer until Carl takes the drugs to a harbor warehouse, where several mobsters load the drugs into a truck and Carl is given a wad of cash.
Meanwhile, at the Spyware Industries HQ, Bobby is causing a ruckus and is crying and begging for his job back. Security is called and Bobby is thrown into a dumpster, where W3 Source retrieve's him and explains what Commissioner Carl is doing with the kcarc, and then proposes his plan on how to expose him.
The next day, Channel 6 News is reporting the arrest of Commissioner Carl, who was caught in the illegal act of drug trafficking. W3 Source had previously tipped off the police about Carl, and Bobby states that Source's plan wasn't complicated at all. The episode ends with Source turning his head while the camera zooms in and dramatic music is played.
==Trivia==
*Kcarc kocaine is an obvious parody of crack cocaine.
*The episode is influenced by the real crack epidemic that started in 1984, the time this show takes place.
*This is arguably a children's show, but dark episodes (such as this one) and acclaimed writing grew a more mature fanbase.
