Official overview[]
Soos fixes up a Cuckoo Clock and gives it an ultra-awesome remodel.[1]
Synopsis []
After the intro, the short begins with Soos saying that Fixin' it with Soos is the only program created and edited by him on his very own computer, which he demonstrates by giving a computer-generated hand a high five. He then shows a broken cuckoo clock Stan told him he broke by accident (in reality, he deliberately hit it repeatedly with a baseball bat because it wouldn't stop cuckooing). After poorly repairing the clock, Soos decides to add decorations. Mabel walks in and suggests leopard print, while Soos adds a second home "so the cuckoo can live in style." This goes on with them adding more and more weird and cool stuff, so when they show it to Stan, the clock is barely recognizable and doesn't even work, them having added so much stuff, they thought he wouldn't notice. However, Stan gives them a 10 out of 10 rating anyway because it doesn't make an annoying cuckoo noise anymore. The short ends with CGI explosions and Soos saying that next time, he'll fix the computer he broke "making these awesome CGI effects possible." The computer then explodes in the background.
