"Boys 2 Dead", Way to Die #87, is the seventh and final death featured in the episode "Death on a Stick", which aired on August 3, 2010, and the eighth death to be featured in "Death By Request: Special", which aired on October 24, 2011.

Plot[]

Over-the-hill one-hit-wonder boy band "4EVER", consisting of Tim, Norm, Jeff, Tony, and Joe, was popular during the 1990's and early 2000's, performing for large crowds in amphitheaters and arenas. However, their popularity soon dwindled and they now perform in dive bars and small nightclubs.

On one night, 4EVER performs on stage for a very small, unenthusiastic crowd at dive bar, with the exception of a single cheering fangirl. Tim, the ego-maniacal lead singer, deludes himself into thinking there is a cheering crowd in front of him and decides to do a stage dive while the band sings their song, "(Stop Callin' Me) Baby". He dives, but with nobody to support him, he falls to the ground, shattering his spine, causing paralysis. His entire body shuts down, and he dies. After mourning him for a few seconds, the rest of the band finish the song in Tim's memory.

Transcript[]

Narrator: While Tim lay there paralyzed, his lungs stopped breathing, his heart stopped beating, and his brain just...stopped. In other words, Tim was dead...4EVER.

(Even Tim died, 4EVER proceeds the song 'till the end)

4EVER: (Singing) Baby, The thing is maybe. I'm not going to save you. From being the baby that's a baby alone.

Audience: (Cheers)
