Screw the rules Warning: Spoilers
This was actually a pretty good episode, being part of the very promising beginning of the third season of "Regular Show" (before disappointing episodes such as "Best Burger in the World") having all the good elements from the best part of the series, such as the unpredictable stories or the good interaction between the main the characters.

Now, there is one specific moment in this chapter that captured my attention (Warning: This is the part of my review where the spoilers start) and it is when Mordecai and Rigby arrive at one place where there are no rules, so they are able to met characters from the past and the future.

One of those characters is an elderly version of Mordecai, which made a strange comment about how Mordecai will miss Rigby in the future. It is not clear if this is actually a relevant plot point or some kind of random joke, but some fans of the series interpret this as one indication that Rigby is going to die at a young age, being that the main reason of the behavior of Mordecai in some of the recent episodes, where he seems to be more irresponsible and more obsessed with spending time with his friend rather than doing his work.

For me, that moment means something completely different: It was the point where "Regular Show" started to go into a darker territory, something which resulted in the disappointing, more cynical episodes from the third season (Such as "Best Burger in the World" or "Replaced") "Regular Show" has been always a strange series, but at the same time it had one nice side that made it highly enjoyable and special. I hope that this good side of the series never disappears, such as it happened with "The Simpsons" some time ago.

Benson is seriously cramping Mordecai and Rigbys style with a bunch of new rules so they make it their mission to live a rule free life
