A Tragic Love Story

A Tragic Love Story is the first objection of the Second Season of the PHIS Objection series. It features Joe, Cosmic and Ogi and follows the former two's "love story".

## Plot

The episode starts with cosmic playing a video of a bad Trump model dancing on It's Been so Long by The Living Tombstone. This triggers Joe for some reason, who starts ranting and wondering why cosmic posted this video when he had the choice not to, calling it a curse and a betrayal and even offering him help to become a better person. Cosmic is seen not taking the accusations seriously by posting an edit of Bonnie from Five Nights at Freddy's on Big Chungus, appropriately named later by Joe "Big Bongus". This seems to trigger Joe slightly, but the latter didn't lose his cool and offers his help once again.

Cosmic once again decides not to take the offer and posts a video alternating between Markiplier is real and Markiplier isn't real, triggering Joe once again. Joe drops the shattering truth that Markiplier isn't real before dropping another less important truth; cosmic is sleeping (most likely in a coma) and Joe misses him dearly, remembering all the good time they've spent together. However, cosmic doesn't take the accusations seriously once again and posts a MLP meme video, that Joe stops instantly before continuing. After his heartfelt speech, cosmic simply states that he's going back to gaming, under Joe's pleading cries for him to stay.

This is what causes Joe to snap and reveal that he never loved Cosmic, calling him fat and ugly (how horrible!). At this point, Ogi appears and ask what is going on, before Joe reveals that this is a tragic love story. He goes on to explain his side of the story and the horrible treatment he received from cosmic, which causes him to threaten the latter by posting on his twitter.com. However, cosmic quickly changes the subject by stating that Joe cannot prove he's fat and after a short yet intense argument, Joe manages to somewhat prove his point and offers to settle this outrage in the only place he cannot win: the courtroom.

After electing Ogi as judge, Joe claims that cosmic is ugly, with the proof "Trust me bro". Possibly threatened by this claim, cosmic refuses to show up to court and Ogi teleports him there instead. This doesn't change anything as cosmic quickly escapes the place, giving the win to Joe, who gets to keep the (fictional) children him and cosmic had and states that the cops are on their way to arrest cosmic. Unfazed, cosmic simply says that he can close his phone, but Joe reveals yet another shocking truth: he is the hobo living across the street in front of cosmic's house. Ogi states that this is a jojo reference and breaks time and space, causing Joe to teleport back to court as he is taken in a fit of laughter, before quickly snapping at a bot that tells him he is sending messages too quickly.

Cosmic seizes the opportunity and calls out Joe for "breaking a rule", providing the same Trump video as proof. But before any further debate, Ogi kicks both of them out of his courtroom, causing Joe to simply accept the outcome and teleport away. Finally, Ogi warns cosmic in a friendly matter by stating that posting the same thing twice is pretty annoying, and one frame before the video ends, we can see that cosmic posted the video as an answer to this.

## Trivia

* This is the first "filler" episode in the Objection series and doesn't follow a straight narrative like the Detective Trilogy or the Dad Trials.
* Despite cosmic being very prominent in this episode, he actually debuted in Detective Turnabout.
* This is the episode containing the least amount of characters, being three.
* This is technically the first time that we see Joe as Old Wright. However, an untold trial where Joe, Will and Dr. Will try proving that Cyano is a fraud is the real first time that Joe is portrayed by Old Wright.
* Despite having two different locations (Gourd Lake Park 2 and Courtroom #3), the events all happened in one chat, being lounge.
* Joe and Cosmic never actually had a love story.
* Cosmic isn't in a coma, since he is Joe's therapist. We can only assume Joe didn't get rid of his lying methods by the time A Tragic Love Story happened.
* Despite the objection releasing on September 1st, the discussion happened on August 31st.
