OF MICE AND MEMES

Pinky is watching television, when Brain comes over and says that watching it would turn his brain to mush if he had one. He tells him to turn it off, but Pinky asks for another minute, since "America's Stupidest Pets" is his favorite show. Brain doesn't get what's so funny, but Pinky just wishes that he could carry the TV in his pocket and watch them all the time. Brain then gets and idea, and spends the next twenty two years creating the internet.

They meet up again, and Brain feels like his plan has finally come to fruition. Pinky thinks that's great and says that he's been getting therapy the last twenty two years, and realized that they're relationship is based on Pinky enabling Brain's emotional and physical abuse and not a shared desire to concur the world. Brain then flicks his nose and Pinky thinks he deserved it. Brain explains that the internet is a powerful tool and asks what most humans use it for. Pinky doesn't think he can say, and Brain explains that he's referring to them watching dumb animal videos. He plans to become the next viral animal, and will use a filter that hypnotizes people to take over the world.

Back at the Acme Lab, Brain dresses up as a baby which Pinky finds adorable. Brain asks him to take a picture, which he does and they upload it online using the mind control filter. They wait for attention, but nothing happens. Brain gets annoyed and kicks the globe, only to get his tail stuck. He spins around it, yelling for Pinky to help. Pinky records it and uploads it just as Brain gets unstuck from the globe. Brain believes that their scheme is over, but Pinky shows him that the video has gone viral. The plan has worked.

While waiting to be brought onto Seth Meyers, one of the roadies tells him that he's been bumped for Business Pig. Pinky recognizes who that is because he shared a video with him, and Brain points out that Pinky uploaded it with his mind control filter. Pinky says that he finds the swirls fun, and the two are kicked out of the building. They head back to the lab, and Brain says they have to prepare for tomorrow night. Pinky asks what they're doing tomorrow night, and Brain says they'll do what they do every night, try and take over the world!

Fanon
Fans tend to believe that the two are a couple, or are at least portrayed that way.

On AO3, Brinky is the most written ship for both Pinky and Brain. It is also the most written ship in the Pinky and the Brain tag and the second most in the Animaniacs tag.

Pinky and Brain's voice actors Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche seem to be on board with Brinky as they often do skits at conventions where Pinky and Brain say I Love You to each other. Maurice even said that the series isn't just about taking over the world, but about two people in love. Rob follows this up by saying "I love you Brain" in Pinky's voice, with Maurice replying in Brain's voice "I tolerate you Pinky"
