The Big Boss

Rockbert fanfic

A bit suggestive at the bottom

Rocko walked into Mr. Smitty’s office, after being summoned. Mr. Smitty is going away for a while and won't be back until tomorrow. Rocko has to hire someone again and work as a team that way it wouldn't be too stressful. Rocko immediately wanted to decline but he also didn't want to get fired. He nodded sadly and watched as his boss left but he stopped in his steps and turned around. “Once again I will warn you. Don't Touch the Green Button.”, Mr. Smitty said as he left. Rocko understood clearly. He didn't even want to sit on that chair again! He soon called Heffer and Filburt and asked to come by the comic book shop to earn a few extra bucks. They both agreed gladly but Filburt was a bit cautious. Rocko wasn't himself last time but Heffer will be there. Maybe it'll be different.. Hopefully.

Rocko gave Filburt the job of being the cashier and Heffer to clean around the store. “Ohh why do I have to clean! Why can't Filburt do it!! All he's going to do is just stand there and do nothing!”, Heffer complained. Rocko looked at him and crossed his arms, “Because Filburt never steals money to buy food, Heffer. He also knows how to use the register and give the correct change. You on the other hand will eat the change itself. So Filburt takes register duty while you take the cleaning duty. I, on the other hand, will order new stuff that needs to be sold and check on bills.”. Filburt felt touched that Rocko defended him and made him feel like he's better than Heffer. Heffer on the other hand rolled his eyes and took the broom and began sweeping the floors. Rocko patted Filburt's back and smiled, “Anything happens let me know.”. He then walked upstairs to the office and sat on the chair. He felt PTSD kick in and jumped off terrified. 

“What's up with that chair Rocko?”, Heffer asked while pointing at it. Rocko panicked, “N-Nothing. I just… Didn't feel like sitting down.”. Heffer chuckled, “Why? Don't know how?? It's easy! Here lemme show ya!”. He lifted him up and Rocko cried out in panic, “Wait No!!!”. Filburt walked upstairs to see the commotion, “What's going on here guys?”. Heffer sat Rocko on the seat, “Just helping Rocko sit down on this big chair.”. Rocko tried to get off, “Please!!! I need to get off of this thing!!!”. Heffer ignored him and noticed the green button. “Huh. This looks interesting.”, Heffer said as he pushed it. Rocko cried out, “No!!! Not Again!!!”. He felt the hypnotic massage and tried to get off. He held his head as the pleasure took over, “F-Filburt!!! Leave!! Leave Before it Comes Back!!! G-Get Norbert Aw-!!!’. Filburt watched worried but as Rocko opened his eyes his heart sank in fear. Not this again! He grabbed Heffer and tried to run out, “Not Again!!!”. He heard his name getting called out but continued to run. Just as he made it downstairs he saw the doors going into a lockdown and panicked. “Nooooo! I don't want to work here!!! Please fire me!!!”, Filburt cried. Heffer was panicking, “Wh-What was he?!”. They soon heard loud footsteps and turned to face their best friend who didn't look very nice at all. “I'm your Boss. Boss Boss to be precise. And I Expect this Floor to be Cleaned and Mopped!! Understand you Cow!!!”, Boss yelled angrily. Filburt and Heffer held each other close in fear, as Rocko towered over them. 

Norbert and Daggett were walking towards Rocko's work to hang out with the boys. Daggett got a message about them working at Rocko's work and wanted to come over and surprise them. Norbert joined immediately because Rocko would be there and as they both walked in, it looked spotless and…. Unsettling. Norbert looked around and noticed Filburt standing at the register with a forced smile on his face. He felt concerned, “Filb? What's going on here??”. Filburt looked at the camera then back at Norbert, “Nothing's wrong. Happy to work here with the boss.”. Daggett felt suspicious about this and looked behind him to see Heffer scrubbing the floor faster. He rushed up to him, “Hey buddy that's already cleaned.”. Heffer looked up at him with a forced smile, “It's clean when I see my reflection!”. Daggett felt nervous and looked at Norbert, “What happened to them?”. Norbert felt concerned too but grew more worried about Rocko, “I need to speak to Rocko.”. Filburt immediately looked at him, “Don't!”. 

“Filburt!! Send the Beavers to my Office!!”, A loud gruff said through the speakers. Norbert knew that voice and felt offended. “Beavers? I have a Name, Rama!”, Norbert yelled and stormed upstairs. Filburt tried to follow but felt the chain pull him back to the register. Daggett grew worried but followed Norbert. Norbert barged inside the office and looked around for the Wallaby. “Alright Rocko. I'm here. Now explain to me why our friends are smiling like the Joker?”, Norbert said as he crossed his arms. He noticed the Wallaby's ears peeking from the top of the chair and stormed towards it. Daggett grew worried and tried to stop his brother but was grabbed and taken to the darkness. Norbert made it to the chair and felt something latched around his throat. The chair turned and he was faced against the Big Boss, Rocko has nightmares about. His eyes widened, “Y-You…”. Boss smiled and pulled him close by the chains, “Yes. Big Boss. The one Rocko warned you about, I must say. You look more attractive up close. I have a special job for you.”. Norbert felt his face flush but fought it. This isn't Rocko. Boss held up a small costume and smirked at him, “Put this on in front of me.”. Norbert frowned and tried to back away, “Never! I won't do anything for you!”. Boss smirked and grabbed his chin, “If you don't then I'll have your brother thrown out the door and deal with the chaos outside. He forced Norbert to turn and see Daggett tied up and duct taped at the mouth.

“Daggett!”, Norbert cried out but felt his face turn towards Boss. “If you don't do as I say, he'll be the one to pay the price.”, Boss said as he inhaled the cigar and blew it in his face. Norbert coughed and fanned the smoke away from his face, “Fine. Just let my brother go. I'll do whatever you want as long as you Free Him, Heffer, And Filburt.”. Boss arched a brow, “You're pushing your luck, Weasel.” Norbert felt anger rise and calmed himself. He grabbed the costume and sat on his lap, “I would do more than just. Sit on your lap Big Boss. Maybe I can. Be more than just a maid.”. Norbert traced circles around his chest and felt the small shudder. Boss thought about it and smirked, “Alright then. I'll free your Pathetic friends, in exchange you'll be my personal maid until I grow tired and find a New one.”. Norbert felt his heart clench but knew it was a mind game. He nodded, “Deal Big Boss.”. He left the slimy tongue on his neck and shuddered at the feeling. Rocko snapped his fingers and Heffer, Filburt dropped Daggett and rushed at the desk. “Get out of my sight and take the otter with you. If I see you three step foot into My Store again I'll take you back in and you'll be scrubbing the restroom with Your Tongues!”, Boss yelled while holding Norbert close. 

Heffer and Filburt nodded quickly and grabbed Daggett and ran out of the store. “Wait!! Norbert!!!”, Daggett cried out for his brother but was muffled from the tape. Norbert watched sadly as his brother was taken and felt the fabric shoved into his hands. “Dress up. And do it slowly. Doll.”, Boss ordered while smirking. Norbert frowned and got off his lap and began looking at the short maid outfit. Daggett was trying to fight against Filburt and Heffer as they ripped the tape out of his mouth, “We can't leave them there!! We gotta save them!! We gotta save my brother!!!”. Heffer grabbed his shoulders, “We can't!! Big Boss took over Rocko's body and it's all my fault! If I hadn't pushed that darn button, none of this would've happened!!”. Filburt grabbed Heffer, “It wasn't your fault, Heff. You didn't even know about the incident between me and Rocko.”. Heffer sat down and slumped, “Still my fault… I've done nothing but mess up. No wonder Rocko trusts you with everything..”. Filburt felt awful but then sat next to him, “Heffer. Remember the time Rocko and Norbert broke up and you noticed Norbert was about to win him back but left after he saw Rachel and Rocko? If it wasn't for you then Rocko and Norbert wouldn't be here together. They still would've been depressed and probably moved on with someone else and feel the pain of that lost love.”. Daggett then spoke up, “And if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be myself and just stay home alone. I never had friends, who accepted me for me, before. I would've just stayed home and watched my life go by without me… You accepted me for who I am and introduced me to Filburt. Now we're the three weird musketeers!”. Heffer smiled softly, “Thanks guys.. I don't know what I'd do without you guys.”. Filburt smirked, “Probably go to Chokey Chicken and eat everything on the menu.”. The three laughed and hugged. Now to save Rocko and Norbert.

Norbert was sitting on Boss's lap and took out the cigar to let him blow out the smoke. He then placed it back and felt his tail getting grabbed. He shuddered, got off and grabbed the ashtray and held it up. Boss tapped the ashes on his hair instead and placed the finished cigar on the tray. Norbert frowned and shook the ash out of his hair and put the tray down. He grabbed the new cigar and lit it up. He gave it a few puffs to get it ready and placed it back on Boss's mouth. Boss smirked and held Norbert close, “Do me a favor doll and press the green button. Big Daddy needs a new massage. Norbert looked at the button and remembered the way Rocko sounded when someone brought it up. “Don't Press it!!! He'll take over again!!!!”, Rocko said and clutched his head. Norbert felt his heart clench and shook the thoughts away. He frowned and crossed his arms, “No.”. Boss growled, “What was that Doll?”. He grabbed the chain and pulled Norbert close and blew the smoke at his face. Norbert coughed and shoved him away, “I said I won't do it! You think you can continue to take over my Wallaby? Well you thought wrong!”. He yanked the red rod forward and they were thrown off the chair and Boss grew infuriated. “You little Brat!!!”, Boss yelled as he pinned Norbert down. He was about to yank the chain up but was attacked by Heffer and Filburt. Norbert got up and backed away fast and watched as the two wrestled the large Wallaby. Daggett slid next to him and tried to break the chains with his teeth, “Don't worry bro! We'll save you and Rocko!”. 

“Don't worry about me, get rid of that chair!!!”, Norbert yelled as he pointed at the large chair. Daggett nodded and rushed towards it. “No!! Get away from that you little shi-”, Boss yelled but his face was slammed down by Heffer. “Rocko!! We know you're in there!!! Fight him!!!”, Heffer yelled. Daggett ripped the chair to shreds and the button flew out of it. It landed in front of the boys and Boss noticed it. He growled and screamed as he threw off Heffer and Filburt. He rushed towards the button but Norbert jumped on his face and held him close, “Rocky Road please. Fight him! We need you! I need you!!”. Boss gripped his chains and threw the beaver off and rushed towards the button. He then saw Heffer and Filburt placing their foot on it. “Your days are over Evil Boss Man!”, Heffer yelled. He and Filburt then stomped on the button, shattering the whole thing. Boss yelled in anger and grabbed his head. Norbert took off the cuff and coughed for a bit. Daggett was checking on him but Norbert smiled and hugged him. 

Boss fell to the floor and his body deflated. Heffer and Filburt walked towards the body and poked his head. The red spots disappeared and they soon heard a soft groan. “Owwww. My head…”, Rocko groaned in pain. Heffer and Filburt hugged him tight, “You're Back!!!”. Rocko smiled and hugged them tight, “I'm sorry. I couldn't control myself..”. Heffer then spoke up, “No I'm sorry. I shouldn't have placed you on that chair and pushed the button to begin with.”. Rocko shook his head, “No I should've told you about that monster. He's been haunting me for years… I-I feared that he'll be back and stay there forever. But you guys stopped him! You destroyed the green button and I owe you so much for that.”. Heffer and Filburt smiled and held him close, “We're just glad you're back.”. Rocko then remembered something and pulled away fast, “Norbert!! Is he ok?!”. 

“I'm ok Rocky Road.”, Norbert smiled while appearing in front of him. Rocko felt his face flush red and looked away, “O-Oh My. Uhhh… T-That’s a lovely outfit you have on.”. Norbert chuckled while everyone got up and left to clean up the mess. Norbert sat in front of him and kissed his lips, “I rather wear this when you're you.”. Rocko took off the green shirt and placed it around him. He put on his original shirt and picked up Norbert. Norbert held onto Rocko, “I can walk honey.”. Rocko nuzzled his cheek, “Not in those heels. They're going to give you blisters.”. He placed Norbert on the desk and helped the boys finish cleaning. After everything they closed up shop and left. Heffer decided to take the blame to prevent Rocko getting fired. Filburt joined in the blame and Rocko appreciated them for doing that. Once they all went home and Daggett stayed at Heffer's. Rocko walked into his room and saw Norbert, still in that outfit, sitting on his bed smirking. “Welcome back. Big Daddy.”, Norbert said seductively. Rocko turned red at this, “Oh my.”. 

Heffer was eating the food and spoke up, “I bet Norbert is wearing that outfit to get in Rocko's pants.”. Daggett spat out his food, “Heffer!!!!! I didn't need to know that!!!! Eugh!!!”. Filburt laughed hard, “Norbert is gonna call Rocko Big Boss but in a good way!!”. Daggett screeched and threw food at them. They both laughed and Daggett then spoke up. “Yeah I bet Rocko will pull out his big sausage for Norbert!!”, Daggett yelled. Heffer and Filburt frowned, “Eugh!!!”. Heffer threw the sausage down, “Come on man I was just about to eat my sausage!!”. Daggett laughed, “Now you know how I feel!!”.

Netflix released their Jan-June 2023 viewership data which is very exciting for kind of dull people like me who want to post mildly interesting facts about the shows they like

Anyway, some fun Saiki K stats:

Total hours watched (all seasons plus Reawakened): 29,100,000

Hours per day: 161,667

That's over 18 years of this show watched in a day! It's like the whole anime is being binged over 6,800 times all at once.

Now some comparisons:

(I'm not including anything that isn't available on Netflix globally)

Some things that had fewer hours of viewing than Saiki K season 1 (the highest, at 17,100,000 hours):

A Series of Unfortunate Events: Season 1

Heartstopper season 1

Big Mouth season 1

Bojack Horseman season 1

Seinfeld season 1

Some things that had fewer viewership hours than Saiki K season 3 (the lowest, at 600,000 hours):

Monty Python's Flying Circus series 1

Bill Nye Saves the World season 1, 2, and 3 (separately)

Neo Yokio season 1

Rocko's Modern Life: Static Cling

And some things that had more viewership hours than any season of Saiki K (in case you're like me and also think it's funny to see what things are more popular than your fave):

The Boss Baby: Back in Business: Season 1

Jane The Virgin: Season 5

Little Baby Bum: Nursery Rhyme Friends: Season 1

Dynasty season 4

Pride Month Triple Feature Finale: Rocko’s Modern Life: Static Cling (Commission for Weird Kev 27)

Well this last installment is a bit late, but any month can be pride month if you belivie in yourself, so we end this pride month trilogy with Rocko’s Modern Life Static Cling, something i’ve been wanting to cover for years, but usually something came up or I realized I forgot to include it by the time the schedule was already full up. But with violence, legeslation, and outright bigotry towards Trans Persons only escalating, it felt like the right time.

For those not as familiar with Rocko, quick refresher: Rocko’s Modern Life was one of the earliest Nicktoons, created by Joe Murray and being a hit not just with the networks target demo, but adults who related to the series, a 20 something hang out sitcom but with all the lunacy animation allows. Our Rocko, his doofy friend Heffer and nerdy best friend Philbert dealt with nipples of the future, death, time travel with the elderly, elves, and recyling. The show was very of it’s time but also timeless as MANY of the fairly adult subjects it tackled in it’s unique goofy way still resonate: the show tackled topics like your parents not approving of a mixed marriage, the struggles immigrants face, homosexuality (via clowns), a sexually unsatisfying marriage leading to a wondering eye (done ENTIRELY straight to the point the episode was banned), finding out your adopted, bosses treating their workers like a commodity instead of a person, megacorporations running our lives, credit card debt, and even sex work

It’s thanks to Rocko we have classics like Regular Show, it’s successor Close Enough and Tuca and Bertie. The kind of show that uses wacky humor while still showing some very real shit we have to deal with. 

So in hindsight. .it’s not really a stretch that with changing times, rocko would go from having to use clowns to cover queerness to doing a full coming out episode in it’s revivial special, a pogniant well done story that deeply reconteculaizes a beloved character

Pig you’ve been out since 1996. 

So let’s look at this touching tale and all the other neat stuff just in time for the show’s 30th anniversary shall we?

Static cling follows our boy, his bulbous buddy and his somethign else rhyming with b , picking up where we left off.. and the original finale to the series had our heroes shot up into space, returning as the elderly. The last part is stricken from the record Roseanne style, and instead our heroes have largely settled in: Filburt misses his wife tails, he misses her a lot, but otherwise our heroes are doing fine on fatheads reruns... till Filburt notices the remote has been jammed up Heffer’s butt for the past decade, they fight as usual and Rocko has to scream at them to “PUSH THE BUTTON”. TV’s Frank would not abide. 

SO with that our heroes return to earth. There’s also a nice small joke in that... most people really aren’t phased our heroes were gone 20 years: while we sadly dont’ get a scene with Heffer’s family , easily one of my faviorite parts of the series with Rocko’s dinner visit being one of my faviorite episodes, we do get to see his beaver hating grandpa, with all his innuendo glory, the only change being

And Filburt naturally easily reunited with Hutch because their perfect and we need that. It’s like our heroes were never gone for the most part.  The real exception is ROcko.. and i’ts easy to why: Filburt had a wife and four adoring children eager to finally get to know their dad. Heffer’s family is implictly there and his grandpa is still around only now he can posses lawn gnomes. Nothing’s really changed for either in a way that harms them. Filburt missed most of his kids’ lives, but they seem to have grown up fine.  In contrast when you think about it.. no one was really waiting for Rocko. He hit it off with Shiela well, but that was one episode towards the end. I mean he could look her up on face-o-rama, or something, so ti’s not lost, but when you think about the series with his family in australia.. all Rocko had were his friends, mrs. bighead (who warmly welcomes the guy back and gives him some needed support), and Spunky. Rocko really has nothign to come back to: his job is gone and while his friends adapt to the 2010′s really well... it’s all too much. it also makes sense: Heffer always went with the flow and while Filburt seems a bit too accepting on paper, he’ sa giant nerd in a world where he can livesteream being nauseous and blather about his opinons for an adoring public. I mean I woudnln’t of had the tools to do this when the show aired. I was two and the internet wasn’t easy to come by. Six maybe. 

While the montage of various “new” things was.. dated even by when it came out and is kinda just there outside of Schlammo, the unhealty energy drink , it hammers home that while his friends have accepted the present.. Rocko is lost in it. He was never one to easily accept new trends in the show itself, usually being pulled into things like health clubs or credit cards by Heffer, so it’s entirley in character that being stuck in a world 20 years later with nothing to really hold him there shatters his normal optimisim. I’ts pretty heartining to see rocko shattered a bit when bev finds him. It makes her trying to support him and help him heartwarming.. but it can’t really fix the problem of feeling like the world’s passed you by. It was striking to realize how deep Rocko’s story comes off, a story about nostalgia and how it can help us when we feel lost.. but how we can cling to it as our only salvation. I’ll admit to having dived into my various coping mechanisms, comics, games, tv, youtube, to escape... and to have a minor panic attack if one’s missing, so I may just relate to rocko a bit.. but it still works.  It also kicks off the plot as the fatheads is gone, and Rocko badly needs it. HIs cries for it fall on deaf ears for mr bighead though, who just oopsied at work.. and now his world is collapsing for real, with his job gone and his house soon to be gone. “A tv show won’t solve your problems rocko”. It’s a simple statment.. but one that’s true. TV can offer an escape.. but it’s not going to fix what’s wrong with yoru life. It’s the thesis statment of this special.  Granted it can at least save ed’s job and house and conglomo as the special revenue would do it. It’s heavily spoofing how much companjies rely on these revivials and nostalgia pops, with the series lovingly mocking how much money fans think a rocko special would bring nick.. and then accidnetly being accurate as while Static Cling didn’t bring in millions upon millions of dollars, it was still a success all the same. 

The problem is the head of congolmo wants the chameleon twins to make it cheap with CG. I mean grante dth eproblem is the fatheads also you know.. ende din the run of the show, but honeslty i’m willing to ignore that for what a good story it is and it could easily be said Rachel just had to go back and make more to pay the bills or something. This was also built both off the actual rumors, that later came true of a CG Rugrats reboot, which honestly dosen’t LOOK bad.  So with that our heroes decide to search for the series creator, “Ralph” Bighead, who disappeared during the time skip, as all the money, all the success didn’t make them happy. We get some fun gags including a faviorite of mine “Culturally ambgious pillows”, as our heroes tour the world to find the creator.  And thus about halfway into the special they find them int he desert.. and find out why no one had seen them. See while they last saw them as “Ralph”.... our heroes instead find RACHEL Bighead. 

And honestly ti’s excellently done for the most part. Before we get to all the good let’s get the elephant out of the room: Joe Murray should not have continued playing rachel. Joe.. is a cis man. A cis man should nto play a trans woman. I can however accept this wasn’t done with any malcious intent, and was likelky done to hide that Rachel was trans now, as the special has it as a twist, wtih Rachel having a hat on and only revealing their trans by steping out of her fatheads foodtruck. Having a new VA might give that away. I still wish they’d swapped them but I get Joe meant well.  I mostly get that.. because everything ELSE is done well. When you look back on who rachel was.. they were miserable. They had all the money in the world, but could never find creative fufillment with the fatheads, to thepoint they tried sabotaging a followup with wacky delli. I mean we got the cheese, the best character in the show, but Rachel never found fufillment. It was only by realizing who they always were and making their body into what they truly always wanted that Rachel is happy. Said happiness.. allows her the reconciatlion with her creatoion she never got in the original show, selling fatheads freezie pops. She found a new art, the life she alwasy wanted she’s content. She even refuses to do the special, and rightfully so: while the creator SHOUDL revivie a work if possible, if they don’t want to.. they shoudlnt’ be forced to. Rachel only agrees because her parents are in danger.  I also love the acceptance rachel gets: the boys all think it’s neat and instantly accept it, as you should. The reveal itself is simply done: Rachel steps out, says “I’m rachel now”.. and the boys all think it’s neat and accept it, attaching their drone to the ice cream truck and flying off. Bev also fully accepts it, happy their daughter’s happy and even finding her some cute shoes. It makes sense for all involved: while all from the 90′s, Rocko’s group has always been an accepting bunch for the most part, while Bev was always the parent that accepted their kid more.  It’s harder for Ed.. but it’s a well done harder. He’s bigoted, and potrayed as stupidly as that sounds: he rejects the idea of the special simply because he rejects the idea he has no son but a daughter. I also like the stealth pun there: he once claimed he had no son when he disowned rachel.. and it turns out he never did. Everyone around him rightfully sees this as stupid, and it’s portrayed as such, but what i Like is that they play this realistically. Instead of Ed throwing out slurs or throwing a tantrum, which sadly could very well happen, he just disowns his child, again, and storms off. He can’t accept a trans daughter because to him it’s a change. To Rachel.. it’ sbeing who she was always meant to be. Rachel ends up still making the special, remembering her past, including biting ed’s eye as a baby.. and using that. And while Ed has to be dragged to the premiere, as many a person has to be dragged into acceptaince... it’s said work that helps Ed see what a fool he’s been. Rachel reworks the fatheads.. but now includes a baby based on themselves. It adds great new jokes to the bit.. but it’s the last one, a reinactment of her “damaging her fathers retina”.. that makes Ed realize what he shoudl have all along: this is his child and who they always were. Being a woman not only allowed them to be happy.. but it dosen’t change who they are.. because this is who they ALWAYS were. And what helps is that... Rachel didn’t NEED ed’s acceptance. Their disapointed, but when he wails no at it, she simply says yes. They do the short because, even if Ed dosen’t accept her, she wont’ leave her parents homeless and still loves them both. And it’s ED who has to come around and accept that he has a daughter, he always did.. and that’s wonderful.  We also get Rocko.. not accepting the change. A baby, how dare he.. but ed talks him down, getting to the point of the special in a truly lovely speech. 

“Rocko we can’t live in the past, we can be grateful for it, but life isn’t permenant, and if we don’t embrace what’s now, we miss out on a lot of the important stuff. “ I couldn’t of said it better myself and belivie me i’ve tried. And it’s a perfect message for this special.. and for Rachels’ story. embrace what you have, not what you thought you had. This special is phenominal, with tons of great gags, a truly amazing story at the core, and lots of great cameos in some lovely animation. Check it out wether your new to rocko or want to revisit an old friend. Thanks for reading and happy belated pride.

did not realize i didn't post this here yet so hello t*mblr, meet Aimee! my rocko character who's development dates back to 2020 c:

Aimee is a chihuahua gal who's moved to O-Town not long after graduating college. In search of better opportunities (and a place decent enough for her to be away from her family) she settled in an apartment and lands a job working in an art store downtown. It would be there where an art show takes place and 2 peculiar characters would visit...Heffer had heard there would be food, and his buddy Rocko just tagged along. Aimee would acquaint with these fellows, but days later Rocko, at his job, would get some posters for an upcoming special issue of RRBM ruined by accident, and so his boss tasks him with replacing them somehow lest he loses his job (that was all the copies they could receive so someone had to replace em!) After struggling, Rocko would seek advice from Aimee, but she was more than happy to make the poster for him, with his assistance of course...spoilers: they succeed. they become friends then lovers and la la la. yeah

Did i mention Aimee's part dingo?
