TIME JUNCTION
(We see Bow Kid in her office, going through a checklist)
Bow Kid: Artificial light operational? Check! Temperature regulated? Check! Quality of water? Check- (stops herself before she can finish drawing a tick) Wait, no! I haven’t checked that!
(A Roombot enters the office, holding a plate of cookies)
Roombot: YOUR COOKIES, MADAM.
Bow Kid: Thanks! But, uh, I’m off to the water station.
Roombot: SHALL I REDIRECT YOUR COOKIES TO THE WATER STATION?
Bow Kid: You can just leave them on my desk. Although I think Sea Fairy Cookie would appreciate the odd snack...
Roombot: ORDER ACKNOWLEDGED. TAKING COOKIES TO SEA FAIRY’S DESK.
(the Roombot goes off to deliver the cookies)
Bow Kid: Wait, what am I saying!? She’s literally a sentient cookie! That’d be delicious cookie cannibalism!
(Bow Kid runs after the Roombot. She passes the Mafia Boss’ room, where we see him polishing his knives)
Mafia Boss: It is important to keep knives clean and sharp! (shivers) Seems like there’s a slight draft in here… I’ll turn on the heater.
(Mafia Boss walks over to find the heater, only to stop)
Mafia Boss: Oh, right. The hotel has no heater. Because it is supposed to always be kept at a comfortable temperature.
(Mafia Boss sits back down and continues polishing his knives)
Mafia Boss: Back in Mafia Town, we would never let a draft in our hotels. If only I ran this place instead of that useless kid with the hat...
(Bow Kid runs past Owain’s room, where we see him trying to write something)
Owain: ...no, this isn’t right.
(Owain erases what he just wrote, then taps his pencil in boredom)
Owain: No ideas… no ideas! I guess I should take a break.
(Owain gets up to get a drink, only to find that the water tap isn’t working)
Owain: ...huh?
(Owain tries again with the tap, only for a icy mist to seep out instead)
Owain: Wait, what’s this?
(Bow Kid continues making her way to the water station, chasing after the Roombot, only to find that the door is locked)
Roombot: ACCESS UNAUTHORISED. COOKIES ARE REQUIRED TO WAIT.
Bow Kid: Why would she lock it, though?
Roombot: I AM AUTHORISED TO PERFORM EMERGENCY DOOR ACCESS IN THE CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.
Bow Kid: Emergency?! What kind of emergency?!
Roombot: AN EMERGENCY THAT REQUIRES EMERGENCY DOOR ACCESS. MY SENSORS INDICATE THAT THE TEMPERATURE IN THE WATER STATION HAVE FALLEN DRAMATICALLY.
Bow Kid: You don’t think there’s been some sort of problem with the water systems, right? How could it drop like that!?
Roombot: I DON’T KNOW. I’M NOT PROGRAMMED WITH BASIC SCIENCE.
(Bow Kid activates a nearby Charu monitor)
Charu: Hello, how can I help?
Bow Kid: Can you unlock the access to the water station?
Charu: Right away!
(the doors open, sending a wave of icy mist that engulfs Bow Kid and the Roombot)
Bow Kid: Sea Fairy! Are you okay?
Sea Fairy: …
Bow Kid: Sea Fairy?
(the mist clears, and Sea Fairy is revealed to be frozen solid)
Roombot: MY SENSORS INDICATED SEA FAIRY COOKIE’S FORM HAS SOLIDIFIED.
Bow Kid: No kidding! She’s practically an ice sculpture!
Roombot: THAWING PROCEDURE ACTIVATED. PROCEEDING WITH JET FUEL PROCEDURE…
Bow Kid: Wait, don’t! That’s too dangerous! 
Roombot: I NEVER GET TO USE THE JET FUEL...
Bow Kid: If Sea Fairy’s like this, nobody in the hotel will have access to water! Charu, alert Hatti immediately!
Charu: There is nobody named “Hatti” in the database.
Bow Kid: (sigh) I mean Hat Kid!
Charu: I’m sending an urgent notification to her right now.
(Hat Kid is on the phone in her office)
Hat Kid: So, you’re saying that the pool temperatures are going down?
Susie: That’s right. If we don’t do something about it, we’ll start getting less swimmers.
Hat Kid: I see, Susie. What if-
Charu: (suddenly pops up on the Charu screen) Hello?
Hat Kid: Wagh! (almost drops the phone) Is that you, Charu?
Charu: Yes.
Hat Kid: When did you hijack the phone?
Charu: I’ve come to give you an urgent notification. Sea Fairy has been frozen over, and the hotel has lost its water as a result!
Hat Kid: Wait, WHAT!? Sorry, could you repeat that?
Charu: Sea Fairy is frozen. Without her, nobody in the hotel has access to water.
Hat Kid: She’s… frozen? Okay, I need to take a look at this.
(Hat Kid arrives in the water station, where she finds Bow Kid and the frozen Sea Fairy)
Hat Kid: So you just found her like this?
Bow Kid: Yeah. No clue why she’s frozen.
Hat Kid: It’s baffling. ...maybe I should ask the other cookies? They at least knew her before, so they might have an idea on what’s going on. In the meantime, try and find a safe way to thaw her.
Roombot: UNDERSTOOD. REACTIVATING JET FUEL…
Hat Kid: A SAFE way to thaw her.
(Meanwhile, Basil is busy tending to plants in his room while wearing a thick coat)
Basil: It’s absolutely freezing today… will the plants be alright in this chill?
(Basil turns to look at the plants he moved to the side, which are now covered in ice)
Basil: Ah! I gotta warm them up!
(Basil runs to find the heater only to inevitably find no heater)
Basil: Wait, there’s no heater!? This is bad, why did they never install a heater? I’ll go find the other gardeners, maybe they can help me warm up the plants...
(meanwhile, Orange Cookie is at the reception, bored, and wrapped in an orange hoodie)
Orange: Nothing new… brrrrrrrr, it’s freezing!
(she attempts to take a drink from her squash bottle, only to find that the squash is frozen)
Orange: It’s basically an ice lolly at this point. Why is it so cold today? We never get weather in the hotel!
(a time portal emerges, and a group of little gelatine blocks roll out)
Orange: Hey, did something…
(Orange looks over the counter to see the Gummi on the floor)
Orange: ...Oh my gosh, they’re adorable!
(the Gummi notice Orange, and attempt to climb up onto the counter, but fail. However, one large, block-shaped Gummi gets an idea)
Orange: Hi, welcome to the Time Junction! It’s unusually cold today, but feel free to check in anyway!
(Blockbo jumps, creating a heavy ground pound that launches the other Gummi into the air, and onto the counter)
Sugarspike: We’re the Gummi Squadron! We urgently need to know where we are, and how we can get back to the battlefield!
Jelli: … 
Orange: This is a time nexus. After somebody breaks the time barrier, they end up here.
Solagum: The time barrier? What’s that?
Professor RC: I’ve done research on it. It’s like a wall that controls the flow of time, but can be broken by excessive energy or speed.
Gumvolt: K-k-kinda like if you time travel o-o-outside the boundaries of time itself.
Unispike: So we travelled through time… but what time is this?
Professor RC: It’s no time. A point where all of time links together - one could say, (looks up at the Time Junction sign), a Time Junction.
Orange: That’s right! We’ve got loads of people from different worlds here. I can check all of you in for- actually, you’re all so tiny that you might as well just share a single room.
Tangle: Which room are we staying at?
Orange: Here, take this key! (puts the key to room 0003807 on top of Blockbo)
Blockbo: How are we supposed to put this in the door?
Orange: Uhhh… (to Helisprout) Can’t the one with the propeller fly?
Helisprout: What, do you want me to put it in with my mouth?
Sugarspike: Don’t you make seed bullets out of-
(Hat Kid runs in while wearing several layers of winter gear)
Hat Kid: Orange, I need your help!
Orange: Huh?
Hat Kid: Sea Fairy Cookie’s frozen solid. Do you know why she’s in that state?
Orange: Sea Fairy… frozen… (gasp) !! Frozen?!
Hat Kid: Orange, what do you-
(Orange Cookie runs out of the reception)
Orange: We have to gather the other cookies! They can help me explain!
(the staff gather at their meeting table, with Cherry Blossom at the front)
Cherry Blossom: Okay, so… Sea Fairy was frozen by a curse long, long ago. And because of her grief, she refused to thaw out… 
Lemon: But then, we found her, and she was convinced to come back to life when she… saw how happy our time was.
Vanessa: That’s all? We only have to show her happiness?
Snatcher: Ooh! I can conjure up a circus!
Cherry Blossom: ...it’s more complicated than that. She’s not frozen because of her grief - it’s her grief that makes her refuse to unfreeze.
Octavio: I think we’re failing to address the obvious, there’s no water! We’re all gonna die!
Dedede: Don’t you dissolve in water?
Octavio: Only large amounts of water. Drinking is safe.
Celica: If it’s any consolation, I can melt water using fire magic.
Hat Kid: It’s not going to stay melted, though… not with th-th-this… f-f-freezing…
(Hat Kid gets out of her seat)
Hat Kid: I’m going to get a coat!
Orange: Another one? You’re already wearing five!
Hat Kid: It’s just that cold!
Bow Kid: And the two of us are much more used to extremely comfortable, cozy and most importantly warm environments.
Hat Kid: I miss my spaceship’s heating...
Vanessa: I think I might have an idea.
Bow Kid: About the spaceship?
Vanessa: No, about our general heating. Did you know that there’s an entrance to the system?
Hat Kid: We don’t even have heating, though. Time-space is permanently a comfortable 19 degrees.
Herb: We do have artificial heating and cooling in some rooms, though. Like in our gardens, to keep the plants growing in the right conditions.
Vanessa: Hmm… could you rework those systems to cover the entire hotel? In an extremely short timeframe?
Herb: No, I think that’s the source of our problems. Whoever hijacked the cooling, they must have done it from the garden systems, and powered it up to spread from there.
Hat Kid: You’re suggesting that whoever hijacked the cooling was able to freeze Sea Fairy solid as well?
Herb: Most likely.
Hat Kid: Alright, then that’s where we’re heading first! To the garden!
Orange: While you figure that out, me and the other Cookies could try and find a way to unfreeze Sea Fairy like last time. If we did it before, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem again, right?
Hat Kid: ...wait, where’s Susie?
Bow Kid: Last I checked, she’s dealing with the pool.
Vanessa: Oh, right! It’s frozen solid! And I think there are still people inside!
Hat Kid: Uh… I hope not…
Bow Kid: I’ll, uh, go check up on that. Good luck with catching our sneaky temperature-tamperer!
Dedede: Looks like the rest of us will have to do a little detective work… Put your Sherlock hats on, gang!
(Bow Kid heads to the pool, followed by Vanessa and Snatcher. Hat Kid, Dedede, Corrin, Chell and Octavio head towards the garden, leaving only the cookies)
Lemon: Okay, so… how are we going to unfreeze Sea Fairy?
Cherry Blossom: ...I’m not sure myself.
Herb: We could try reminding her of all our memories together… does anyone here have a photo album?
Orange: I could call up the Snatcher and get him to try that circus thing...
(Bow Kid, Vanessa and Snatcher arrive at the completely frozen pool)
Bow Kid: Okay, so what do- (gasp)
(Bow Kid notices that the pool is frozen, with no sight of Susie. The only person in the pool is Mari, half-frozen)
Mari: Bad morning for a swim, am I right?
Snatcher: AHAHAHAHA! YOU’LL SOON DIE OF HYPOTHERMIA! IT’S HILARIOUS!
Mari: (huffs)
Bow Kid: Hold on, we’re-
(Vanessa and Bow Kid run to Mari, but quickly slip and fall as they step on the ice)
Bow Kid: Ugh… (gets back up, then tries to run on the ice again, but falls again)
Vanessa: The ice is just too slippery to move on…
Snatcher: Would you rather it all melted?
Bow Kid: Yes!
(Snatcher conjures a fireball)
Snatcher: Glad you asked! Let’s get things fired up, shall we?
(Snatcher lobs the fireball, melting the ice below Bow Kid. She jumps out of the way before she can fall into the ice hole, however)
Bow Kid: Aaaaah! You’re supposed to be saving people, not drowning them!
Snatcher: You asked for fire, kid! Don’t blame me for taking things literally!
Bow Kid: I didn’t ask you for fire at all!
Snatcher: Don’t blame me for putting words in your mouth either!
(Vanessa, meanwhile, is tip-toeing across the ice, managing to get close to Mari)
Vanessa: Bow? I have a plan, but I need you to come here.
Bow Kid: Okay, I’m comi-
(Bow Kid slips again, but this time ends up sliding, while spinning, until she bumps into Mari)
Vanessa: Snatcher, if you throw a fireball this way, we can break Mari out before it freezes over again!
Bow Kid: Isn’t there a chance it could hit her!?
Vanessa: ...50/50, really.
Mari: Wait-
Snatcher: I like those odds!
(Snatcher lobs another fireball, this time aiming near Mari and melting some of the ice near her)
Vanessa: Now!
(Vanessa and Bow Kid quickly tug Mari out of the ice hole, before the water freezes and re-seals the ice)
Mari: Phew… hey, why did you think throwing fireballs at me was a good idea!?
Snatcher: Kiddo, why WOULDN’T it be!?
Bow Kid: At least we got you out of the ice. But where’s Susie?
Mari: She’s on lifeguard duty, and… (looks to see nobody in the lifeguard chair) ...oh, no, is she trapped under the ice?
Snatcher: Only one way to find out! (starts conjuring more fireballs)
Vanessa: It’ll just refreeze! We can’t melt that ice until the temperature is fixed!
Snatcher: Ah, well! I guess we’ll just have to leave Susie to die! What a shame!
(Bow Kid just stares at the Snatcher)
Snatcher: (sigh) Fine, let’s go help the others.
(Meanwhile, Hat Kid, Dedede, Corrin, Chell and Octavio are in the garden area, finding a freezing Crazy Dave and Jasmine huddling near some fiery plants)
Hat Kid: Well, we’re here- wait, there’s a fire?!
Corrin: Hold on! I think the fire’s coming from the plants.
Crazy Dave: That’s just our Fire Peashooter! It’s a Peashooter I set on fire!
Octavio: You set a PLANT on fire?!
Jasmine: Actually, leafy plants go well with fire.
Crazy Dave: You should see the others I've got. A Peashooter that’s frozen, a Peashooter that’s electric, a Peashooter that’s deathly toxic, a Peashooter with three heads, a Peashooter with-
Dedede: Alright, we get it.
Corrin: Why did you transform all of those innocent peashooters!?
Crazy Dave: Because I’m CRA-
Dedede: I SAID WE GET IT! WE’RE ALL GONNA FREEZE TO DEATH IF WE DON’T SORT THIS OUT, SO SHUT UP!
Chell: (sign language)
Octavio: What’s that, Chell? 
Hat Kid: She says she might have found something. ...while we were too endorsed in plants.
Corrin: Which way?
(Chell gestures for the other staff members to follow.)
(Chell reaches a wall panel, which she lifts up to reveal a short hallway, leading to a dead end)
Hat Kid: Huh? A secret passageway?
Octavio: Not much use if it stops so soon.
Corrin: No. I think there might be something more to this.
(Chell taps on the door with her fist, then turns to Hat Kid with sign language)
Hat Kid: ...a… super-thin wall?
Corrin: If the wall is thin enough, then maybe… that’s it!
(Corrin takes out his Dragonstone, using it to enter his dragon form, and blasts the wall with a pressurised water jet, splitting it open to reveal a dimly lit corridor)
Hat Kid: I never saw a corridor here on the floor plan…
Corrin: Well… the Roombots were the ones that built it. Maybe they added nooks and crannies that we’re not aware of.
Hat Kid: Unless this corridor was here before we arrived… I still don’t know much about this place’s history, even after a year.
(the group travel down the corridor, quickly entering pitch darkness, with only the characters’ eyes visible)
Dedede: It’s dark. Too dark.
Octavio: Does anyone have a light?
Hat Kid: Ummm… (gets out her Dweller Mask) I think this will let me see in the dark.
(Hat Kid activates the Dweller Mask, emitting a field of green light. She turns to see Chell, who had been trying and failing to talk in sign language all this time)
Hat Kid: Much better!
(the group keep on going forwards, until they bump into a green wall)
Hat Kid: Agh!
Corrin: Is this some kind of magical construct?
Octavio: Seems like magic to me.
Hat Kid: Wait, I know! This wall is made of a special material that becomes tangible when in-range of my Dweller Mask. If I turn it off…
Corrin: We’re going to lose our light if you do…
Hat Kid: Just for a bit!
(Hat Kid turns off her mask, and the wall in front fades into a green outline)
Dedede: Now, who in their right mind would even put dweller-thingamajig walls in a secret corridor to begin with?
Corrin: Maybe whoever put them there was trying to keep people out. Or… to keep something in?
(the group carry on through the tunnels, passing below Sanae’s room, where she, huddled up in blankets, is continuing to develop her card game)
Sanae: Brrrrrrrrrrr… 
(Sanae is writing down ideas for cards, only to stop as she runs out of ideas)
Sanae: … Let’s see… I could add some ice-related cards…? Wait, that’s what I’ve been doing for the past 30 minutes…
(meanwhile, the cookies are busy showing their photo album to the frozen Sea Fairy)
Orange: See, Sea Fairy? These are all our memories together!
Cherry Blossom: We went on a ton of adventures!
Lemon: Orange, Cherry… I don’t think it’s working.
Herb: I get the feeling… she’s not cursed.
Cherry Blossom: Huh?
Herb: I mean, like… she’s literally just frozen solid. What if all we need to do is just warm her up?
Lemon: Good point. So, who do you think froze her?
Herb: Probably the same person who made the hotel cold.
Orange: Then we just need somebody to make the hotel burning hot!
Lemon: That’s a good plan, actually. Now who can give us heat…
Cherry Blossom: Nobody comes to mind… in this hotel, at least.
Orange: There’s a way. It’s called time-bypass summoning. Hat Kid told me all about it, but said it was highly illegal, so I don’t really understand why she bothered to tell me in the first place.
Lemon: Uh… doesn’t sound good…
Cherry Blossom: Who were you thinking of summoning, Orange?
Orange: You remember Fire Spirit Cookie, right?
Herb: That guy? He set all my plants on fire!
Orange: Exactly! He’s perfect for warming this place up!
Cherry Blossom: I’m not sure. Would counteracting a powerful force with another powerful force work? It might just skew things on the hotter side…
Orange: I’m just sick of this cold. It’s worth a shot, even if we get arrested...
(Meanwhile, Hat Kid’s group keep on travelling through the tunnels, only to find a jet of icy wind blowing at them from one of the corners)
Octavio: Hey! It’s gotten even colder!
(Dedede steps forward and a crunching noise is heard, alerting the whole group)
Dedede: ...Uh, I stood on a frozen leaf. That’s all.
Corrin: Leaves? Hmmm...
(The group carry on walking, as Dedede keeps stepping on frozen leaves, and Hat Kid continues having to switch off her Dweller Mask to make it past the green walls. They soon find icicles protruding from the ceiling of the tunnel)
Hat Kid: Icicles? We’re getting closer to the cold!
Corrin: This must be where the source of the temperature is!
(After more walking, the group come across a small hideout filled with sketches and sleeping bags)
Hat Kid: Some sort of secret hideaway…
Corrin: Wait, this is a map of the hotel!
Octavio: Now who would be camping out in a place like this!?
Dedede: It’s normally not so cold in these tunnels, remember?
Hat Kid: True, but why keep their sleeping bags in here? Surely they’ve got to be close by.
Corrin: Maybe- (notices one of the sleeping bags is full) Wait, there’s somebody in there!
(The group peers in and sees a sleeping Iceberg Lettuce, which quickly wakes up)
Dedede: Looks like one of the gardeners’ plants. Hey, little buddy, what are you doing here all by yourself?
(The Iceberg Lettuce panics and begins glowing, as its eyes turn white)
Dedede: Uh-
(The Iceberg Lettuce releases a blast that freezes the entire room solid and quickly hops away)
(the completely frozen Dedede quivers for a moment, then pushes himself over, the ice breaking open as he hits the ground)
Dedede: That is one mean lettuce… (turns to the frozen Octavio) Wha-?! We were ALL frozen?
(Dedede hits Octavio with his hammer, breaking the ice)
Octavio: Agh! That thing made me into frozen octopus!
Dedede: Yeah, that pesky plant froze us all! (smashes Hat Kid’s face in with the hammer)
Hat Kid: Brrrr… Did that cute plant just attack us? Maybe it felt threatened…
(King Dedede breaks Corrin out of the ice)
Corrin: So… there are things living in the walls.
Hat Kid: You think it could’ve been one of the gardeners’ plants and gotten lost?
(King Dedede breaks Chell out of the ice)
Chell: (sign language)
Hat Kid: ...you’re right. There must be more people living here, since there’s all these sleeping bags around.
Chell: (more sign language)
Octavio: What’s that?
Hat Kid: You think… that ice plant could be responsible?
Dedede: I knew it! That’s the thing that’s been freezing up the place!
Corrin: The entire hotel? Frozen by one small plant?
Octavio: Hey, it’s not like we have any other ice-powered culprits at hand.
Dedede: It’s settled, then. We need to catch that organic perpetrator!
Octavio: Right! But where’d they go?
Hat Kid: I didn’t see… being frozen. You were holding the plant, Dedede, do you have any idea?
Dedede: I’m gonna bet… (points down a hallway) ...that-a-way!
(The staff run down the hallway and dive deeper into the tunnels)
(meanwhile, Bow Kid, Vanessa and Mari are running in search of frozen guests, and soon arrive at the rowing lake, which has been completely frozen similarly to the pool)
Bow Kid: Looks like the lake is frozen over too...
Mari: Just like the swimming pool?
Bow Kid: And every other body of water in the hotel, presumably.
???: … Unbelievable!
(the Snatcher rises up from Bow Kid’s shadow)
Snatcher: Take a look at all those sitting targets, kid!
(Bow Kid takes a look at all of the rowboats stuck in the ice)
Vanessa: I don’t see any people. Have they all died?
Mari: No, I think they just left.
Bow Kid: You don’t think anyone’s trapped under the ice, right?
Snatcher: Let me take a peek under...
(the Snatcher slinks into a shadow and swims under the ice)
Snatcher: (Hmm, not seeing anyone here…)
(the Snatcher comes across Girlfriend, frozen under the ice)
Snatcher: (Ah! A cold, dead soul! Feels just like home!)
(the Snatcher swims back and emerges from the shadows behind Bow Kid)
Snatcher: Good news! I found the corpse!
Bow Kid and Vanessa: (two very different kinds of gasp)
Snatcher: I mean… they’re not dead yet. Give it 10 minutes or so for the hypothermia to set in.
Mari: Wait, who’s corpse?
Snatcher: None other than… uh… I don’t know her. She was wearing a red dress… 
Bow Kid: Oh no, it must be Girlfriend. We’ve gotta melt that ice!
Snatcher: Okay! More soul-snatching fireballs coming up!
Mari: You better be more careful with them this time!
(Snatcher starts lobbing fireballs at the lake)
Vanessa: This is much worse than Mari. Her entire body is frozen solid. Bad news for her well-being!
Bow Kid: I hope the other staff are sorting the ice out… We can’t keep thawing people like this…
Snatcher: Ah, please. You think I can run out of these things?
(Snatcher continues lobbing fireballs until the whole lake is steaming)
Snatcher: Alllllll done. Anyone here a lifeguard?
Mari and Bow Kid: No.
Vanessa: ...
Snatcher: Hey, this gives me an idea. If we go back to the pool, I could heat up the whole thing and make a huge hot tub for all the freezing guests!
Mari: As if I could trust your fireballs… you almost burned me to a crisp…
Bow Kid: It might work to keep the guests out of the cold while we search for anyone in danger.
Snatcher: Yeah! Let’s do it!
Vanessa: Oh, right! I nearly forgot about the unconscious woman in the lake! We should probably give her medical attention!
(meanwhile, Hat Kid and her group are continuing through the icy tunnels, until they reach the main temperature regulation room)
Octavio: Quite a way just to check the temperature! Who designed this place?
Corrin: Your guess is as good as mine, Octavio.
(Hat Kid runs up to the control panels)
Hat Kid: Okay! Time to see if we can fix the cold!
(As Hat Kid walks to the controls, a group of three plants peek out of the shadows, then jump into view - Ice-Shroom, Ice Bloom and Iceberg Lettuce)
Ice-Shroom: (These foolish hotel goers believe they can mess…)
Ice Bloom: (With our subzero sabotage…)
Iceberg Lettuce: (Created by us, the Foilage Frosties!)
Hat Kid: ...huh? Did someone say something?
Corrin: ...just sounds like rustling leaves to me.
Ice Bloom: (No! You will pay for disrupting our subzero splendor!)
Ice-Shroom: (Prepare an icicle blast attack, Frosties!)
Octavio: Eugh, these must be the plants that caused this whole mess!
Corrin: We’ll hold them off. Hat Kid, you fix the temperature!
(Hat Kid runs for the controls, while the Foliage Frosties bombard the others with ice shards)
Ice-Shroom: (Initiate Iceshard Burst!)
(Corrin slices away the Ice-Shroom with his sword, as the Ice Bloom jumps on him. Octavio runs up and knocks the Ice Bloom off with his tentacles.)
Ice Bloom: (Agh! Iceshard Burst isn’t working! We need a new plan!)
Ice-Shroom: (...Initiate Iceshard Megaburst!)
(Iceberg Lettuce summons an icy wind, as pillars of ice form around Corrin and Octavio, trapping them. King Dedede smashes the pillars with his hammer as Chell portals herself behind the Iceberg Lettuce, cornering it)
Iceberg Lettuce: (ICESHARD MEGABURST ISN’T WORKING!!! WE NEED A CONTINGENCY PLAN!!!)
Ice-Shroom: (Very well. Initiate Iceshard Spiral!)
(Ice Bloom summons a tornado of ice shards that spreads out, pushing Chell, Corrin, Octavio and Dedede away)
Dedede: They’re packing punches for such tiny things! Hat Kid, how are you doing on them there controls!? It’s kinda urgent!
Hat Kid: I, uh. Forgot the admin password.
Chell: (sign language)
Corrin: You know the password? You’re not going to try and sign the whole thing, are you?
(Chell jumps back into her portal, re-appearing next to Hat Kid, and hands over a card with an admin password)
Hat Kid: You’re a lifesaver!
Ice Bloom: (Wait a sec! Frosties, focus on the hatted child! She’s the one who’s going to destroy our subzero splendour!)
Iceberg Lettuce: (I know that!)
(The Frosties turn to Hat Kid, as she wields her umbrella)
Corrin: We’ll defend you!
Ice-Shroom: (FROSTIES, INITIATE EMERGENCY SNOWGRAVE!)
(In the reception, the cookies have set up a pentagram using pictures of Fire Spirit Cookie and other assorted fire-related items)
Herb: Uh… are you sure this is how it works? Hat Kid wouldn’t approve of illegal stuff like this, you know...
Cherry Blossom: This summoning stuff just sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me.
Orange: (takes a deep breath)
Lemon: This seems more demonic than scientific.
Orange: I SUMMON THEE, FIRE SPIRIT COOKIE, FROM THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR!
(Nothing happens)
Orange: Ah. Never-
(A red rift appears in the middle of the pentagram, which shoots out a cookie that bounces into the ceiling and falls facefirst onto the floor)
Orange: I stand corrected!
Herb: Fire Spirit…?
???: ...W-what just happened?
Orange: STRAWBERRY!?
Strawberry: No, seriously! What is going on!
Lemon: You summoned the wrong cookie.
Orange: Okay! Attempt 2! I SUMMON THEE, FIRE SPIRIT COOKIE, FROM THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR!
(another rift appears, as Fire Spirit Cookie slowly rises out emitting flames)
Strawberry: C-can somebody please explain what’s going on here!?
Fire Spirit: Ahahaha… I have been brought here to spread my eternal fire across the space-time continuum!
Herb: Alright, Fire Spirit! We need you to thaw all the ice!
Fire Spirit: ...eh? You summon me from the depths of despair and you want me to be a living radiator? Who do you think you are?
Cherry Blossom: Sea Fairy’s been frozen solid.
Fire Spirit: So that’s why you want me to spread heat! Well, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
(Fire Spirit charges up and releases a blast of energy that sends heat across the room, as Sea Fairy slowly thaws)
Orange: Sea Fairy! You’re back!
Sea Fairy: ...thank you. These strange plant creatures somehow snuck through the vents and attacked me.
Strawberry: Plant creatures? Really, though, where are we?
Cherry Blossom: Hmm, they must be the ones that froze the entire hotel over.
Fire Spirit: Now, if you excuse me, I’m off to make this entire hotel as hot as an oven. Ahahaha!
(Fire Spirit flies off)
Cherry Blossom: Uh… maybe that wasn’t the best of ideas...
(Meanwhile, after throwing the Frosties off, Hat Kid finishes with the controls, and sees the temperature listed at -12 degrees. The temperature begins to increase, but much faster than she anticipates)
Hat Kid: Huh?
Dedede: Somethin’ the matter?
Hat Kid: The temperature! It’s going up FAST!
(the room changes colour from blue to red, and the surrounding ice bursts into flames)
Iceberg Lettuce: (AGH! YOU HAVEN’T BEATEN US! THAT WASN’T THE REAL SNOWGRAVE! JUST OUR WARM-UP SPELLS!)
Ice-Shroom: (But what is this heat? We cannot counterattack in this state!)
Ice Bloom: (I’m too weak....)
Ice-Shroom: (Frosties, retreat! ...I’m too hot to move…)
Iceberg Lettuce: (I’d rather just pass out instead…)
(All three plants collapse to the ground, as the staff turn round to see Fire Spirit Cookie floating down from the ceiling)
Fire Spirit: This is where you monitor heat, right? I sure hope you don’t mind me helping your frost problem a little...
(Chell points her portal gun at Fire Spirit Cookie)
Octavio: Who’re you?
Dedede: Yeah, and howd’ya know about our ice problem?
Fire Spirit: I’m… helping you? The other Cookies summoned me here from the depths of despair. There was a cool pentagram and everything.
Hat Kid: Oh no… Did they seriously do a time-bypass summoning? After I specifically taught them how to do that so they’d be warned against ever trying it?
Corrin: Wasn’t that how the Deals Warlock summoned that futomaki monster?
Dedede: Huh. I gotta try one of those things on my pal Escargoon. He’d be fun to have around.
Hat Kid: They’re illegal for a reason! We can’t keep messing with time! It could straight-up damage reality itself!
Octavio: Wait, why did you tell Orange Cookie about it?
Hat Kid: ...She asked me about summoning in Truth or Dare. You can’t lie in that. That’s even more illegal.
Dedede: They have a police for that kinda thing?
Hat Kid: I don’t want to go back to Truth Jail.
Chell: (sign language)
Corrin: Chell? Is something wrong?
Hat Kid: She says we should be checking for fires. A lot of them could have been caused by the sudden temperature change… you’re right! (puts on her Sprint Hat) We’ve got to hurry!
(The staff run, but pause as they see the unconscious plants)
Dedede: Should we just leave them here?
Hat Kid: ...no, they could die in this heat. We should bring them to Jasmine and Dave.
Octavio: Seriously!? After they tried to freeze us solid?
(The staff pick up the plants and continue chasing after Fire Spirit down the hidden passageways, while fire blasts out of the tunnel rim)
(Meanwhile, the hotel pool is packed with guests as Snatcher keeps the water warm with his fireballs)
Snatcher: I’ve gotta say, this whole subzero splendour has been great for business!
Bow Kid: I never thought having a huge jacuzzi would work. Props to you, Snatcher. We’ve kept all our guests safe and warm!
Snatcher: Well, I’m the hotel’s financial advisor. Of course I have good ideas.
(While they talk, people start running out of the pool as the room gets warmer and warmer)
Bow Kid: Hopefully this… cold… doesn’t… last. Wait a second. It’s not cold.
Vanessa: Maybe our nerves have gone into shock.
Bow Kid: No, look! The guests are running out of the boiling water!
Snatcher: Oh, dear. Bad day for business, kid.
Bow Kid: That’s one way of looking at it! (starts throwing coats off)
Vanessa: At this rate, we’re going to need to put the guests in freezers!
Bow Kid: (wheeling in a wheelbarrow filled with electric fans) It was freezing a moment ago! Did they fix the controls?
Snatcher: I wouldn’t call this fixing. It’s just melting. Ah, whatever! A great businessman can adapt to any situation! Bust out the sun chairs and tropical drinks!
(Meanwhile in the radio room)
Alm: And in recent news… the freezing chill that spread over the entire hotel is over!
Celica: Currently it’s absolutely boiling instead.
(Hat Kid bursts through the doors and grabs the microphone)
Hat Kid: Attention all guests! There is a malicious cookie on the loose that is causing this sudden heatwave! If you can spot him, inform the staff immediately. And stay hydrated.
(meanwhile, Miroir is in his room, seeing as the reading on the room’s temperature checking skyrockets)
Miroir: I could really use some fresh air… (you know, even though he’s actual glass and glass can’t breathe)
(Miroir walks out of the room, only to bump into a Roombot)
Roombot: CIRCUITS… TOO HOT… FIRST LOW ON ANTI-FREEZE… NOW LOW ON PRO-FREEZE… D-D-D-DELIVERING 9-999 SUPPLIES OF STRAWBERRY JAM TO ROOM #33101…
(The Roombot opens a door down the hallway)
Roombot: HERE IS YOUR 999999 JAM TO GO WITH YOUR 99999999 BREAD.
Miroir: Oh, this is bad.
(Miroir runs down the hall, searching for signs of human life, when he bumps into Sanae, causing her to drop some cards)
Sanae: Ah! ...oh, Miroir!
Miroir: Hi, Sanae. This is insufferable, isn’t it?
Sanae: Absolutely. At least it’s giving me some nice ideas for my card game - fire and ice in the water!
Miroir: Sweet. ...by the way, do you know where the cold water is?
Sanae: You’re glass, you don’t need cold water, do you?
Miroir: Not for me. For everyone else.
Sanae: We can go and check with Sea Fairy, if she’s alright. Hey, do you think she could turn into a Steam Fairy Cookie?
Miroir: ...probably not.
(Miroir and Sanae run down the hallway together, and pass Verriere, who we follow as she goes her own way, when Fire Spirit Cookie flies through the hallway past her)
Verriere: Huh? Who are you?
Fire Spirit: Hmm… how would you feel about becoming a beautiful molten glass sculpture?
Verriere: I’d rather not. This form is much more convenient.
Fire Spirit: Suit yourself…
Roombot: HELLO SIR. YOU ARE NOT ON OUR GUEST DATABASE. THEREFORE, COULD I INTEREST YOU IN SOME FUTOMA-
(Fire Spirit sets the Roombot alight and passes on through the corridor)
Verriere: Wait! You can’t just...
(Verrie runs after Fire Spirit, who slips into the rowing lake which quickly starts evaporating and creating a thick barrier of steam that blocks Verriere’s view)
Fire Spirit: How’s that for a smokescreen!? Time to turn this lake into a spitting pillar of fire!
(While searching the corridors, Hat Kid and Corrin see a burst of light coming from the entrance to the rowing lake)
Hat Kid: Uh oh. That can’t be good.
Corrin: That must be where that cookie went!
(The two run inside to see Fire Spirit Cookie creating a vortex of fire in the empty lake with the rowboats spinning around it in mid-air)
Hat Kid: What the-
Verriere: He’s taken control of the pond!
Fire Spirit: Ah! It’s you! I’ve gotta thank you for letting me create such a wonderful inferno in your establishment!
(Bow Kid runs into the room)
Bow Kid: Hat Kid! What’s with the- (looks up) Oh.
Fire Spirit: (speech)
Bow Kid: Who ARE you, anyway?
Fire Spirit: I am Fire Spirit Cookie! 
Bow Kid: Well, you’ve gotta stop all this right now! You’re endangering the guests!
Fire Spirit: You want me to stop? After you invited me here?
(The Cookies run in, followed by Miroir, Sanae and Nova)
Cherry Blossom: Fire Spirit! Stop your rampage!
Orange: We didn’t summon you for this!
Strawberry: Wait, why is he doing this?
Fire Spirit: Oh, look. My “friends”. Won’t you help me spread my wildfire?
Sea Fairy: We won’t stand for this reckless use of your powers!
Nova: Leave this to me! I will deal with this pest- (gets crushed by a rowboat)
Fire Spirit: Blunt force trauma, works every time. Alright, who’s next!?
(Fire Spirit levitates and throws another rowboat at Miroir)
Sanae: Back off! (summons wind that catches the boat and throws it aside)
Fire Spirit: Who do you think you are? (sends a blast of fire at Sanae)
(Miroir jumps in front of the attack, with his glass body reflecting the flames)
Fire Spirit: Oh, wow. Teamwork. Colour me impressed. Oh, wait! I have more rowboats!
(Fire Spirit throws more rowboats at multiple angles. However, Corrin shapes his hand into a dragon’s maw and summons a cyclone of water, blowing the boats back)
Corrin: We can’t keep blocking forever! How can we cool down his fire?
Verriere: Hold on, I have an idea.
Miroir: You do?
Verriere: Let’s use the rowboats as platforms to get closer.
Miroir: Verriere, that’s ingenious!
Sea Fairy: Let me take the front line. My water powers will be-
(Fire Spirit throws a boat and Sanae stops it with her wind. Miroir, Verriere and Sea Fairy then jump on the boat)
Sea Fairy: Alright, Sanae, bring us in close.
Sanae: Right away!
(Sanae propels the boat through the air with her wind magic, dodging Fire Spirit’s fireballs)
Hat Kid: Wait, what are they doing?
Lemon: It looks like they’re trying to… ride the boats in midair?
Herb: We can try and distract him from the ground!
(the Cookies run around trying to catch Fire Spirit’s attention, but he ignores them and continues throwing fire)
(Sea Fairy and the Mirroids, meanwhile, are riding on their wind-guided boat closer to Fire Spirit)
Miroir: Okay, we’re getting close-
(Fire Spirit flings a boat at the one that Sea Fairy and the Mirroids are riding on. The boat is smashed, but Miroir and Sea Fairy jump off to another nearby one in time. Verriere, however, is slightly too late, having to be caught and dragged onto the new boat by Miroir)
Verriere: That was close…
Sanae: We’re almost at the centre. Sea Fairy, what are you planning to do?
Sea Fairy: ...if I release my power in the very middle of the inferno, it could counteract the force and send a freezing power across the room.
Miroir: Not too powerful, right? We don’t want a repeat of the cold temperature.
Sea Fairy: It should be contained within the rowing lake.
Verriere: That’s good. Alright, Sanae, let’s-
(the boat gets smashed, and Sea Fairy and Verriere jump off in time, only for Miroir to get knocked off)
Verriere: Miroir!
(Miroir falls down to the ground, where Strawberry and Herb catch him)
Miroir: Aaah- phew.
Herb: Glad to have caught you.
Strawberry: Ummm… what are you? Why are you made of glass?
Miroir: I’m a Mirroid.
Strawberry: Okay… and, who are the others on the flying boat? Besides Sea Fairy.
Miroir: Oh, that’s Verriere. ...another Mirroid. We’re just… glass people.
(In the background, Nova gets up and pushes off the rowboat, only to get hit by the pieces of the smashed boat and fire)
Strawberry: Right. 
(meanwhile, Verriere and Sea Fairy are still riding their boat, when it suddenly stops)
Sea Fairy: Why have we stopped?
Sanae: You’re too high up, my wind can’t reach! You’re going to have to parkour on the stationary boats!
Sea Fairy: Understood.
(Sea Fairy and Verriere hop between boats, as Fire Spirit shoots flames to incinerate them. Once the two are three boats away from reaching him, however, Fire Spirit readies a giant flame to attack)
Fire Spirit: I won’t let you ruin my flame frenzy! Get out of that boat!
(Fire Spirit launches the flame at Sea Fairy, only for Verriere to jump in front of her and reflect the blow)
Sea Fairy: Verriere!
(Verriere falls down, being caught by Orange and Cherry Blossom on the ground)
Cherry Blossom: Whew! Thank goodness your glass body is so light.
Orange: How’s Sea Fairy doing?
Verriere: Only a couple of boats away. She’ll reach the centre soon!
(meanwhile, Sea Fairy hops between the last few boats, while Fire Spirit gathers all of the flames in the room into a centre point above him)
Fire Spirit: If you won’t listen, I’ll melt you to pieces!
(Sea Fairy jumps onto the boat closest to Fire Spirit, and raises her sword)
Sea Fairy: I won’t let you incinerate my friends…!
(Fire Spirit takes out his staff and the two clash weapons, releasing a blast that blows away everyone in the room)
Hat Kid: Augh! (gets back up) ...how is everyone?
Lemon: (slowly gets up) Not too bad… but that was an intense blast.
Corrin: What kind of battle are they having up there?
Nova: Seems like a battle of ideals. Of fire and ice. (blocks a chunk of ice thrown from the battle) ...can they stop throwing things at me!?
Strawberry: They’re just settling their differences in the cookie way.
Nova: ...the cookie way. Yeah. I understand.
(meanwhile, at the top of the room, Sea Fairy and Fire Spirit battle. Fire Spirit launches a flamethrower, which Sea Fairy jumps to the side of. She then summons a whirlpool around her opponent, only for Fire Spirit to summon a burst of flames around him, dispersing the whirlpool and pushing Sea Fairy back)
Orange: (shouting) I believe in you, Sea Fairy!
Cherry Blossom: (shouting) You can defeat him!
Strawberry: (shouting) I still don’t know what’s going on, but you can do it!
Herb: (shouting) Remember our friendship!
Lemon: (shouting) I’m not sure what to say, but good luck!
(The encouragement from the other cookies strengthens Sea Fairy’s power)
Sea Fairy: This is why I unfroze! The power of friendship!
Fire Spirit: Friendship!? What are you, a walking cliche?
Sea Fairy: Maybe if anybody liked you, you’d understand!
(Sea Fairy summons a giant column of water that engulfs Fire Spirit. Cold mist bursts out, and the water pours down into the dried-up lake, re-filling it)
(meanwhile, Alm and Celica are talking on the radio)
Celica: The temperature is still unbearably warm, as-
(cold mist from Sea Fairy’s blast passes Celica)
Celica: News flash - our radio booth has begun to cool!
Alm: You can all expect more comfortable rooms very soon!
(the cold mist spreads through the hotel, turning down the temperature in various rooms. We see Pearl and Marina in their room sweltering, before the mist hits and cools them down instantly)
Pearl: Wow! They fixed the pipes! Took them long enough!
Marina: I didn’t even realise there was a heating system here in the first place...
(next, we see the cold mist enter Wet Balloon’s room, as they stare boredly at steam. However, the steam soon condenses into water, raining down on them)
Wet Balloon: Ah! Water! I’ve missed you so much!
(cold mist fills the garden as well, and as Jasmine and Dave tend to the melting Frosties, the temperature drops and they quickly recover)
Jasmine: Looks like the plants are feeling better now.
Dave: The temperature is better too!
Ice Bloom: (Frosties! We’re back in action!)
Iceberg Lettuce: (Time to freeze-flamberge these fools!)
Ice-Shroom: (Frosties! Initiate the Icicle Gigablast!)
Jasmine: Hmm… do you think they still need a good leaf massage?
Dave: You read my mind!
Ice Bloom: (...Actually, that sounds quite nice.)
Ice-Shroom: (Okay. We will remain in strategic captivity for a while longer.)
(at the pool, the Snatcher is putting the finishing touches on the tropical decorations)
Snatcher: Finally done! Time for the grand opening of Subcon Resort!
Mari: Congratulations!
Girlfriend: Yeah… actually, it’s not that hot anymore. Kind of spoils the tropical style.
Snatcher: AGH! I QUIT!
(back at the lake, Fire Spirit Cookie is frozen solid and floating in the water. Most of the other cookies are in rowboats, as are Miroir, Verriere and Sanae)
Sanae: Well, we did it!
Verriere: The lake looks especially pristine now.
Sea Fairy: ...what should we do with Fire Spirit Cookie, though?
(Corrin, in his dragon form, wades in, Hat Kid and Bow Kid riding on his back)
Hat Kid: I say we return him back to his own time. Before we mess up the space-time continuum. Speaking of that, I’m vocally preparing myself to start shouting at Orange Cookie.
Orange: …
Miroir: How do we send him back, though?
Hat Kid: It’s called a time reversal desummoning. It’s essentially a forced rift opening, and just as illegal. But seeing as it was illegal to summon him in the first place, we can call it even.
Strawberry: What about me? I was summoned too, by accident…
Hat Kid: Oh, yeah. Uhhh… we can’t safely return multiple people at a time, so… welcome to the Time Junction.
Orange: Wait, but you can remove Fire Spirit safely, right? Just like you did with Poison Balloon.
Hat Kid: Yeah, just like I… wait, no, we kept them around for the interview.
Miroir: But they didn’t get away after that?
Hat Kid: I entrusted the… Roombots. Uh oh. We might have a problem.
(two Roombots, meanwhile, are busy staring at Poison Balloon in a locked cupboard)
Roombot 2: SIR- MADAM- TITLE UNSURE, WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO PLACE YOU IN THIS CUPBOARD FOR SAFE-KEEPING.
Poison Balloon: You can’t be serious. This is just a cupboard.
Roombot 1: UNDERSTOOD. INITIATING JET FUEL PROCEDURE…
Poison Balloon: I literally didn’t say ANYTHING about jet fuel!
(another Roombot floats down the hallway)
Roombot 3: I HAVE BEEN GIVEN INSTRUCTIONS TO ESCORT THE TITLE UNSURE TO A SPECIFIED HOLDING CELL FOR LATER DESUMMONING. PLEASE UNLOCK THE CELL.
Roombot 1: OK. I BUY THAT COMPLETELY. HERE YOU GO.
(The Roombots unlock the cupboard and hand Poison Balloon over, as they follow Roombot 3 down the corridor)
Poison Balloon: So… where you taking me? Space jail? Death row? Depths of despair?
Roombot 3: WE HAVE OTHER BUSINESS TO ATTEND TO.
Poison Balloon: Something tells me you’re not like the others.
Roombot 3: (laughs) That voice is surprisingly easy to replicate. But it looks like I can’t copy the sheer stupidity.
Poison Balloon: Okay. Just cut to the chase. Why do you want me to help with whatever insane stuff you’re planning?
Roombot 3: We will discuss that later. After that stunt at the pool, you’re certainly a tool I can’t pass up. The others are waiting for your arrival.
(A familiar-looking portal shoots out of the Roombot’s arm, as the two enter and the portal closes behind them)
Written by MirrorSamurai and MR Z BRAINZ
(we see the hotel at the dead of night. A time portal enters, and two short, shadowy figures, one humanoid with a pointed hat and one mushroom-shaped, hop out)
Humanoid Shadow: Well? We made it in. This is the Time Junction, right?
(the mushroom starts hopping on the spot)
Humanoid Shadow: I thought so. According to King Gnomus’ report, a Gnome Floatie crashed into the hotel trying to get in. We’ll have to find it and affirm the survival of the rider...
(the mushroom hops faster)
Humanoid Shadow: What is it, Shroom?
(the mushroom keeps hopping)
Humanoid Shadow: What’d you say? 
(the mushroom slows down its hopping)
Humanoid Shadow: ...yeah, you’re right. We’ve got a lot of ground to cover. And this mission is gonna require...
(the gnome steps out of the shadows)
Gnomeo: ...maximum stealth.
