Dearly Departed is the sixteenth episode of Season 11 and the 285th episode overall of Beavis and Butt-Head.
Synopsis[]
Beavis and Butt-Head think Beavis has died and is now a ghost.[1]
Plot[]
Beavis enters the living room with a plate of nachos which he drops in front of the sofa. When he scoops up the nachos from the disgusting floor, a mouse scurries out from under the couch, grabs a nacho and runs off. Beavis pushes the couch to the right to get it, revealing a broken vent into which the mouse now flees. Beavis rips off the grating to climb into the vent and gets stuck.
Th next day, Butt-Head comes in and sits down on the sofa, shouting for Beavis without noticing his legs sticking out of the vent. He concludes his friend must be dead when Beavis awakes inside the vent and starts to groan. His voice distorted and echoing inside the vent, Beavis starts calling for Butt-Head who asks if he is now a ghost or something.
Beavis doesn't think he is dead but since Butt-Head can't see him and his voice sounds so strange, he disagrees. Butt-Head even manages to convince Beavis himself of being dead because he is stuck in a dark place and can see a light at the end of a tunnel. After all, that is exactly what it says in movies and the bible.
Butt-Head is next seen in a grimy bathroom in front of a mirror, practicing a spiel to use Beavis' death to come on to girls. Having freed himself from the vent, Beavis approaches him from behind and gets slapped in the face. Butt-Head asks him what it is like to be dead, which Beavis thinks is pretty cool. He tries to demonstrate walking through walls but bounces off, leading him to think the wall must be broken.
Musing about the mortal coil and futility of existence, Butt-Head taunts Beavis by bringing up that he never "scored" and now will never get the chance. Beavis disagrees, believing he can still score with dead girls using his ghost shlong. They decide to go to the graveyard to find ghost girls and maybe even a half-finished forty.
At the cemetery, Beavis starts coming on to a gravestone when Butt-Head spots a funeral. Thinking it must be Beavis', they wander over. Both ignore the portrait of the deceased, who was clearly an older military man, as well as the fact Beavis fails to recognize any of the mourners. It merely leads Butt-Head to think they must all have banged Beavis' mom at some point. Curiously, Beavis' mom is also absent, but apparently she never turned up for many events in Beavis' life.
When Beavis spots the coffin, he starts to wonder who is in there. Butt-Head tells him that he is supposed to be in there and people will kick his butt if they open up the coffin and fail to find him inside. This leads Beavis to run to the coffin and pry it open while the flag is being presented to the grieving widow in a solemn ceremony. He tries to pull the body out of the coffin in the background while taps is played and the flag rolled up, but fails and finally climbs into the coffin on top of the deceased. The coffin is lowered into the grave with an oblivious Beavis inside it and Butt-Head buggers off home.
