W.M.D. (W eapons of M ass D estruction) is the very first PSA of Red vs. Blue
Characters Red Team Blue Team Synopsis Grif and Simmons attempt to present a warning about weapons of mass destruction as if they were a drug, advising viewers not to fall into peer pressure. However, they are repeatedly interrupted by Church sniping at them.
Transcript Grif and Simmons standing in front of the red base.
Simmons: Hi. I'm Private Dick Simmons, of the popular web-series, Red Vs. Blue.
Grif: And I'm Private Dexter Grif from the same show.
Simmons: But you know what? We're not here to talk to you today as famous actors.
Grif: That's right Dick, we're here to talk to you as friends.
Simmons: In our show, Red Vs. Blue , we poke fun at things like the military lifestyle, and weapons of mass destruction.

Bullet trail over their heads and in to the background and Simmons ducks.
Simmons: Hey!
Grif: Hey!
Simmons: Son of a bitch!
Grif: You.. Cut it out dick! We're trying to do something!
Church: (off screen) Hey red, you suck blue rules!

Another bullet trail over his head and in to the background and Simmons ducks

Grif: Oh, oh that's it. I'm getting my rifle!
Simmons: And remember kids, violence is never the answer.
Screen fades to black More bullet trails over Simmons as he crouches down.
Simmons: You ol' COCK BITE!
Church: Hey, I'll bet that one hurt!
Trivia This episode marks the first time Grif and Simmons reveal their full names, and to date the only instance of Grif referring to Simmons by his first name.
The historical context of the PSA surrounds the USA's decision to invade Iraq. Grif's reference to "everyone doing it" references former President George W. Bush's allegations of Saddam Hussein's Iraq and sponsored terrorists having weapons of mass destruction.
