Plot
Troy and Abed go to Dean Pelton's office looking for answers about the mysteries surrounding this year's paintball contest. Eric and the Dean are there, but before they can question anyone, Pistol Patty and the City College Storm Troopers arrive. Troy and Abed hide as the other two are shot repeatedly by the invaders. Pistol Patty reveals herself to be Dean Stephen Spreck from City College. Spreck tells Pelton he orchestrated the entire thing in order to get the Greendale students to destroy their own school. The troopers notice Troy and Abed eavesdropping and chase them off. The duo go to the Anthropology classroom where they meet up with the remaining Greendale students.
|
Troy proposes they form an alliance to stop the invasion and win the prize money to repair the damage done to the school. Sensing a paradigm shift to a Star Wars theme, Abed assumes a Han Solo persona and flirts with Annie whom he casts as his Princess Leia. The meeting is interrupted when Garrett spots a modified radio controlled car rigged with a paintball grenade slipping into the room. As everyone takes cover, Magnitude throws himself onto it before it explodes, sacrificing himself for the group. Spreck is in Dean Pelton's office, monitoring the situation through the drone. Jeff notices the camera as he inspects the device, prompting Spreck to reply over the school's P.A. system. Jeff vows that they will beat him and make him pay for what he's done.
|
In Dean Pelton's office, paintball troopers present Dean Spreck with a prisoner, Pierce. He offers to tell Stephen everything he wants to know about Jeff. Back at the Anthropology room, Jeff and Troy rally the Greendale students while simultaneously bickering over the leadership position. Meannwhile Spreck taunts the Greendale students over the P.A. as his troopers continue to rampage across the campus. After eliminating two of the storm troopers, Annie, Abed, and Shirley manage to recover a large cache of paint. They bring it back to the alliance headquarters where Jeff and Troy butt heads over strategy. Troy wants to set up a trap in the library while Jeff thinks they should launch an assault on the ice cream truck and capture the paintball gatling gun.
|
Backed up by Abed, Annie suggests a compromise proposing that they split up their forces and carry out both plans simultaneously. Troy's team will carry out raids to engage as many of the City College invaders as they can; this will force the enemy to split up their numbers as well in order to deal with them. The two reluctantly agree and begin their individual missions. As planned, Troy's team diverts some of the ground forces away from the ice cream truck and into the library. However, the planned escape route is blocked accidentally by Garrett and they must fight their way out before the trap is sprung. On the quad, Jeff and his team launch their offensive, but despite gaining some ground, become pinned down by the gatling gun.
|
Back at the library, Abed and Annie help Troy escape but he ends up running straight into a stormtrooper squad and is eliminated. The Greendale alliance begins to suffer many casualties on both fronts. Abed contacts Shirley over her comm headset and tells her to activate the trap as no one from their team is going to make it out in time. She activates the fire alarm, narrowly escaping the downpour of paint from the sprinkler system as well as a group of invaders chasing after her. Orange rains down, eliminating everyone left inside the building. As City College troopers close in on them, Annie and Abed share a prolonged kiss, losing themselves in their roles as Han Solo and Princess Leia. Meanwhile, Jeff's group is faring no better as they cannot safely approach the enemy base.
|
As Jeff and Quendra take cover, he tries to motivate her with an inspirational speech. He makes an attempt to get his team to continue the assault but ends up getting shot. Britta can only watch as the other students are quickly taken out as well including Quendra. She notices a large crowd of eliminated players on the sidelines cheering her on. Hope then arrives in the form of Shirley who is driving the campus security patrol cart. Relieved, Britta quickly climbs on board, and they continue the mission. After defeating the few remaining guards surrounding the ice cream truck, they finally make it to the machine gun. Britta manages to shoot its operator but gets shot herself by another hidden trooper.
|
Shirley retaliates, taking him out as well. The Greendale students celebrate, thinking that the contest is over. However, two more invaders exit a nearby van and shoot Shirley in the back. A third paintball trooper shows up to congratulate them; he then promptly shoots them both. Revealing himself to be Pierce in disguise, he addresses Dean Spreck who was there to witness the final battle. He tells him to pay up the prize money and to make the check out to Greendale College. The students rejoice as they erupt in a chant of "Human Beings!". Afterwards, the study group assembles for the final meeting of the semester. They all have to decide which course they will take together next year. Jeff compliments Troy for his ideas during the paintball contest and asks his opinion on the matter.
|
Troy accepts the praise and decides they should all just sleep on it. Pierce walks into the study room at that point, looking for his day planner. Jeff attempts to make peace with Pierce and extends an offer on behalf of the study group for him to rejoin them. Pierce refuses, saying he's done with the group for good. He leaves, but Jeff smugly predicts that he will return soon. The study group waits, but it soon becomes apparent that he's not coming back...

Quotes
- “Greendale students, I understand you've unified and intend to draw this game out. Well, if it's a war you want, it's a war you will lose. City College is stronger, faster, our sperm counts are higher-even in our women. Resistance is as pointless as your degrees. Honestly, ask yourselves-what does Liberal Arts even mean?”— Dean Spreck
- “Everyone look alive. Leonard, good enough. Greendale, it's been a pleasure fighting with you. Some of us won't make it, but there is a place where we will all see each other again, and that place is Denny's.”— Jeff
- “Which Denny's? If it's the one near the 15th exit, I'm banned.”— Leonard
- “Then I'll see you in hell!”— Jeff

- “You know, I've been coming to this school for twelve years? I've never been friends with anyone here for more than a semester...probably for the same reason I've been married seven times.
