| After feeling guilty about cheating, Josh would break up with Stephanie on Valentine's Day(Like a true gentleman). He would go on a rant in a video uploaded the same day titled "Happy valentines day", using rhetoric common with the "Nice guy" stereotype. Josh would attempt to recover from this self-inflicted heartbreak and garner more attention with The Secret Video, a video uploaded to an adult website where he masturbated to completion, then talks like any other of his videos. Josh would claim to make a new "secret video" every two weeks, although there is no proof that he's made more than one. | After feeling guilty about cheating, Josh would break up with Stephanie on Valentine's Day(Like a true gentleman).

| The final video of the Couch Chris Saga would be one where Chris, who is dressed in what appears to be a secondhand army ACU, had bizarrely returned once more to sleeping on Josh's futon, only to be treated to a fusillade of troll comments directed at Chris and his behavior during the saga read off by Josh directly to Chris' face. Throughout the video, Cobra is ice cold to Chris and passive-aggressively confronts him while making remarks about Chris' lack of employment and constant weed smoking, while touting his own employment at Wendy's. Couch Chris would never be seen in a video again, marking the end of the saga, and the beginning of the Stephanie Saga. | The final video of the Couch Chris Saga would be the video {{https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTZz9JJLsUs|"Talking with Chris Again"}} on February 28th 2013.

| The Couch Chris saga is a fantastic example of Cobra's very first taste of autonomy, and all the pitfalls that come with it. Much of Josh's habits in later years - Attraction to blondes, letting freeloaders overstay their welcome, doing dangerous things, and spending too much money on cigarettes and alcohol - would only have time to marinate in the coming years as the King continues to sink further into the mire of his own creation. | The Couch Chris saga is a fantastic example of Cobra's very first taste of autonomy, and all the pitfalls that come with it.
