IKEWH!: Heartstrings Ep 2.

After Derp tries to strike him, HorseFace proposes a bet. They will hold a concert and whoever the crowd likes the best will be the winner. If your band loses, you must become the other person's Butt-monkey.

You don't mean that in a literal sense, right?

Still not a pervert.

The rest of the students learn about the wager and the university is thrown into turmoil. Even Mr Broadway finds out and lets Derp know that he believes in her.

Tentacles.

HorseFace is starting to get nervous about the bet. What if he loses? What kind of embarrassing things will Derp make him do?
The band isn't helping with their super-perverted suggestions.







Lucy comes looking for HorseFace but all she finds is Worms.
Worms has to tell her that he is the drummer in the band. It seems his Clark Kent glasses really work.

Mind. Imploding.

Ask me what happened to your mother.

That night, Derp is talking to her father on the phone.
She has to keep it a secret from Grandpa as he would kill her father if he ever found out where that deadbeat arse is hiding.

Seriously Big-Hat Guy, WTF?

Back at the university, the student population continues to lose their collective shit. They've made big posters and everything.







Meanwhile at Mr Broadway's house, he and his friend are watching videos of Ballerina dancing. This proves he is not a per-WAIT A SECOND....

Why isn't this guy the main character?

I mean, COME ON.

As his friend is way too attractive to hang out with, Mr Broadway goes to see Ballerina. She is still practising graceful falling.

He talks, she cries, he leaves. Mission accomplished.

Hey, I was just watching some videos of you... Not a pervert.

Now that the housekeeper is dead, Derp must do all the chores for Grandpa. Unfortunately she is terrible at cooking and Grandpa Derp is worried that she will shame the family by being a terrible Butt-monkey.

I am... disapoint.

The only option is to practice playing her instrument all night so she can't possibly lose the bet.




Lucy is practising her dance moves again, this time to the dulcet sounds of Beyonce. Worms takes this chance to spy on her.
He is spotted and and she takes his chocolate bar as compensation. She's still very angry though so she sends him out to buy more food.
When he gets back, Lucy has disappeared. Maybe she went to class.

Nope.

Wow... Wow. Did not see that coming. As 'interesting' as some K-dramas are, I didn't think that they would actually show bulimic behavior.
This must be morning sickness.
Yeah.
Lucy is pregnant with HorseFace's baby. I bet he won't even pay child support.



Seeing as he can't find Lucy, Worms goes to see the band. He finally gets to tell them the name of the girl he is in love with.
They are all shocked, especially HorseFace. Should he tell Worms that Lucy is pregnant with his child?

File under 'Deal with Later'.

It's finally time for the contest! Lots of people have come to see it, even Grandpa Derp. Stupid wins the coin toss so they go first. Everyone is very impressed. Derp starts to get really scared.
After a pep-talk from Grandpa, she's ready to take to the stage. Everything is going so well until...

Balls.

Stupid has won the contest and Derp has to become HorseFace's Butt-monkey. At first Grandpa Derp is upset but once he calms down he realises that this could be a good thing. By becoming a Butt-monkey, Derp may actually learn how to properly maintain a home.

Now I won't have to hire a new housekeeper!

Worms and Moe go out to eat. Worms isn't wearing his Clark Kent glasses so Moe hasn't realised that he and the weird guy that eats too much are the same person.
Both of them forgot to bring money so Derp and HorseFace have to come to the restaurant to bail them out.



HorseFace returns home where we find out that the Plot Device young lady-friend is actually his sister.

I did not expect to see this character again.

Their mother gets a phone call from the hospital. HorseFace's father has asked to see him.

But not his sister.

Braaaaiiiinnnnnssss! I mean, Nuuuuummmbeeeerr!

The next day, HorseFace hunts down Derp to exchange phone numbers. She can't be a good Butt-monkey if they don't have each other's number. All the other girls swarm her in an attempt to get his number too.

Wow, she even looks like a Butt-monkey.

That night, HorseFace gives his sister a lift home on his bicycle. They happen across Derp and Moe sitting at a bus stop. They pause so that his sister can properly insult Derp's looks.








After they arrive home, their mother tells them about their father's request. It seems that he is dying of a disease that is destroying his ability to play the guitar. A disease that may one day affect HorseFace.

:cough:

The hospital visit must take place tomorrow so Derp's first job as a Butt-monkey is to go to HorseFace's classes and pretend to be him.( HorseFace has missed so many classes that he may be kicked out of university.)

She fails.

You're shitting me, right?

While in the hospital, HorseFace and his father play a duet together in a incredibly heart-felt moment. It is a touching scene between a father and his child.

She's not invited.

Rounding out the episode, Derp and Moe head to the club to hear an acoustic set by Stupid. I guess if you're going to fill your cast with the members of CNBlue, you might as well use them.

Most interesting character: Lucy.
Most Boring Character: Ballerina.
Most WTF Moment:

Seriously, what the hell?
