2 in the AM PM is a student film by J.G. Quintel, who would go on to create Regular Show and Close Enough, during his time at CalArts that was leaked online as an animatic with voice acting by himself and Sam Marin. It involves two clerks (voiced by and greatly resembling Quintel and Marin in real life) working on Halloween night at an AM/PMnote an AM/PM is slang for a gas station convenience store that's open all day and all night. It's also the name of a real-life chain of gas stations.. Quintel offers Marin a piece of candy, which unbeknownst to him contains acid (after Quintel mistakenly tells him the candy is laced with marijuana), and the two proceed to hallucinate some pretty weird stuff.The short is notable for being the origin of the character designs of Mordecai and Benson from Regular Show. It can be viewed here. Note that it has NSFW language (and some brief nudity) and plays out like Regular Show if it was a true adult cartoon instead of a kids' show that has a glut of risque jokes in it.

Vacuum Mouth: The cop sucks down an entire bag of chips in about two seconds, although it may just be another hallucination of the gas station attendants.

Marijuana Is LSD

comment
Marijuana Is LSD: Subverted; while Quintel initially believes the candy had marijuana in it, he remembers that it was acid.

Hey, Wait!: This happens when a cop visits the gas station while Quintel's and Sam Marin's characters are hallucinating on LSD.

Bait-and-Switch: At the very end, once the entire drugged ordeal seems to end, one of the clerks panics and asks if the other hears a noise. Once the other clerk is on edge, he farts.

Slipping a Mickey: The one attendant who is given the candy is unaware that it contains acid until he is told, even referring to it as a "milk-chocolate Mickey".

Artistic License – Pharmacology: The animation is a very inaccurate portrayal of the effects of LSD. LSD doesn't cause you to hallucinate transforming into an animal or a gumball machine. LSD actually causes you to see vivid colors and complex visual distortions such as tracers.

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The Cop. He may be an anomaly of some kind, a hallucination, or, combining the two, a normal person seen through the LSD.

Early-Bird Cameo: Mordecai, Benson, and Pops, characters from Quintel's Regular Show (and, in the case of Pops, from The Naive Man from Lolliland, another J.G. Quintel short film used as the inspiration for Regular Show), appear as hallucinations caused by the acid candy.

Mushroom Samba: Quintel and Marin manage to take on about a dozen hallucinated forms in the span of 3 minutes or so.
