Soon Jeremy's empire fell and left him to the horrid smell of spoiled mayonnaise and rats. He did not care as long as he had his mansion, pile of rotten mayonnaise, and herd of rats. However, soon he had too many rats so he had to find somewhere for them to live. He decided that the sewer would be a great place for them to live. He sent them to scour, take over, and infest the sewers. Days later there was a report of a man named Derek who was chased out of the sewers by the rats. He was rambling about rats, mayonnaise, and communism; but nobody understood him so they thought him crazy and put him in an insane asylum. Unfortunately, the insane asylum was converted into the capital the previous week and no one was told. With all of his ramblings of communism, people believed him to be a political genius. Derek was promoted to supreme warlord and he took over the world! Just kidding. He was given some pushy desk job in which he worked 15 hour days and slept in a drawer. Mean while Brian desperately tried to gnaw his way through the rope tying him to the cactus. Unfortunately for Brian, but fortunately for Derek's loyal primate BoBo, ( who was currently riding on the cactus) the rope proved impervious the futile efforts of Brian and his gingivitis infected gums. Meanwhile, Jeremy's mansion became infested with rebel rats (Derek swore he knew nothing of the curios incident), and Jeremy, being Jeremy, simply walked over, sat down, and mocked Brian's feeble attempts for freedom. While Brian and Jeremy whiled away their time Derek enacted a corporate takeover and came to be the wealthiest man alive, and the ruler of the nation, incidentally. As Jeremy sat in his rebel rat infested mansion, he began to think of a plan; however, he became hungry, and by the time he returned from lunch he had forgotten his idea. He sat in his chair, (being quite full after eating the rebel rats) and began to feel ill. That night he had a wonderful dream and, and the next day he was nowhere to be seen. It is rumored that he was seen frolicking in the Amazon Rainforest, or so people say, but in reality he was enslaved by Brian to untie the cactus from his back. After countless days, (thank you Derek for doing 50,000 knots) the cactus was then ground down and used to feed and clothe millions around the globe, millions of warrior apes who were fiendishly loyal to the Derek. Brian unwittingly fed and clothed Derek's assault troopers and enabled him to complete his conquest of the world. Meanwhile BoBo, enraged at the loss of the cactus he had been riding on, tied Jeremy to a coconut tree with 80,000 knots. Luckily, using the plutonium he had brought from the future, Jeremy had already succeeded in finishing his ultimate creation, a giant, MAN-EATING RAT!!!!! Mwah, ha, ha ,ha ,ha, ha, ha ,ha ,ha, ha, ha ,ha ,ha, ha, ha ,ha ,ha, ha, ha ,ha ,ha, etc… The rat easily chewed through the ropes in a matter of seconds and then put out BoBo's eyes with his tail. Jeremy then left to scour the country for supporters. But every time he found one, the mutant rat ate them. His rating approval fell to 5% while Brains raised to 100% (with a 5% margin of error). Unfortunately, the poll was conducted in the presence of alien invaders who had come to abscond with Jeremy's giant rat. No one knows why. No one knows when. No one knows why the scroll is so long. No one knows why Derek successfully ruled the world for 200 years. It is all a great, good, and glorious mystery sanctioned by The Derek.
