"Drones" is the 6th episode in Season 8 of Beavis and Butt-Head. It is the overall 206th episode.

Plot[]

Beavis and Butt-Head are on a class field trip to a military base (but only half of the class is there, because the school's guidance counselor felt the other students were better served by visiting Hewlett-Packard), where their teacher, Mr. Van Driessen (conducting the trip under protest), tries to present a military career in non-violent and educational terms, only to be cheerfully countered by an Army officer who notes the virtues of pre-emptive strikes and bluntly says that juvenile delinquents make the best warriors. Beavis and Butt-Head have to use a bathroom, so they go look for one. Meanwhile, a lazy trainee leaves the Drone Control Room to get some birthday cake. Shortly thereafter, the duo wander into the Drone Control Room, which they at first thought was a bathroom when they read it as "Drain Central". At the pilot seats, the duo thinks they are playing the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas when they are actually controlling drone planes in Afghanistan (the local villagers are speaking Dari. They start wreaking havoc around the city (Butt-Head) and in Afghanistan (Beavis) while looking for prostitutes, still thinking they are playing a video game. They manage to scare civilians around the world and destroy some property. Not succeeding in finding prostitutes, they eventually get bored of the "game" and leave the Drone Control Room, after which a drone crashes into and destroys the Highland High school bus and two other drones crash into a foreign field. The lazy drone trainee, whose return to his job was delayed when he decided to get some ice cream to go with his cake, is arrested as a saboteur. While he's being beaten up and taken away in handcuffs, Beavis and Butt-Head finish their day by enjoying what's left of the birthday treats.
