Psycho Dad Axes Laptop

"Jesse gets his brother's laptop destroyed by his psychotic father."

- Description

Psycho Dad Axes Laptop is the third episode of the Psycho Series, uploaded onto the McJuggerNuggets YouTube channel on May 26, 2014.

Synopsis
After getting his Xbox destroyed and his camera shattered, Jesse plots for revenge on both his father and brother by showing footage of his father destroying Jesse's Xbox online, to Psycho Dad.

Plot
Jesse attempts to get payback on both his brother and his father for his broken possessions (the Xbox 360 from Psycho Dad Destroys Xbox and the camera from Psycho Brother's Filming Freakout). Jesse convinces his brother, Jeffrey Jr. to give him his laptop to talk to a girl online. What he really intends to do with the laptop is to show his father, Jeffrey Sr., the Psycho Dad Destroys Xbox video. Jesse goes outside and finds his father chopping wood. Jesse shows him the video, leading to him thinking that Jesse is trying to make him look like a fool, and without hesitation, axes the laptop. Jeffrey Sr. then snatches the camera from Jesse and forces him to bring in what is left of the laptop to his brother. When Jeffrey Jr. sees the scraps of his laptop, he chases after Jesse in furious rage. Jeffrey Sr. looks out the window and calls the boys out for their actions.

Some viewers believe that Psycho Dad Axes Laptop is fake since Jesse referred to the McJuggerNuggets YouTube channel as "My brother's account...".

However, Jeffrey Jr., during the time of Psycho Dad Axes Laptop, was in charge of the channel. (Note that in Psycho Brother's Filming Freakout, the on-screen text is clearly from Jeffrey Jr.'s perspective.)
