Uncle Gilbert Hates Area 51!

Uncle Gilbert Hates Area 51! is an upcoming YouTube skit written and directed by Rebecca Leonard.

Plot
Although Area 51 isn't a tourist attraction, Uncle Gilbert visits there anyway, only to voice his disapproval. He wishes Area 51 provided rock climbing and asks anyone of they would help him turn Area 51 into an outdoor nightclub. Gilbert then wants a UFO to take him to Madison Square Garden, a well-known arena in New York City, so he can see a Hannah Montana tribute act. A helicopter takes him to the airport in Las Vegas, where he catches the first plane to New York City. While Gilbert explores the New York Penn Station, he sees an advertisement for the Hannah Montana tribute show, where a newspaper woman encourages people to buy tickets, much to his excitement.

Meanwhile, a construction team is in the midst of turning Area 51 into a nightclub by Gilbert's order. The construction team's leader uses drawings in a fashion similar to Twinkle from Higglytown Heroes in order to explain plans for Area 51's replacement building, much to the team's approval. Through a brief phone call, the leader of the construction team informs Gilbert that an outdoor nightclub is about to be built in place of Area 51, much to Gilbert's excess happiness.

Outside Madison Square Garden's entrance, Gilbert and other people are waiting in line for tickets to the Hannah Montana tribute act, and the box office manager finds the last ticket after it was accidentally mixed with tickets from a Selena Gomez concert in 2013. After the Hannah Montana tribute show ends, an overwhelmed Uncle Gilbert heads back to his hotel room, still crying tears of joy as he precedes to go to bed.

Two weeks later, the nightclub that replaced Area 51 has its grand opening, and Gilbert watches footage from outside, thus having won the bet. He voices his victory before the screen goes black and the credits roll, thus ending the video.
