== History ==
=== Professor Proxy's Wild Ride ===
The crew first appeared after the doppelganger invasion. The first party member to be found was Driving Guy, alongside his new blonde bombshell girlfriend. The others were soon found before the crew introduced themselves. Skunk gave Alice the order to get Driving Guy and his girlfriend new clothes, returning shortly after. The party and the crew were later met with a fork in the road, and taking one path led them to meet... themselves. Gerard reached out and touched one of the figures before they all screeched and contorted back into their true forms, Dondo included. Balgar was attacked by the Dondoganger, and once the Dondoganger was repelled, the party was able to save Balgar. M1 notified Braxton that there was an engine blockage, and once they got into the engine room, they found that the Doppelganger Queen was trying to eat the engine. Braxton attempted to pry the Queen off while everyone else dealt with her minions, including the Dondoganger, who promptly ate Balgar. Once the Queen was pried off, Braxton found out that the engine was still running, and he, the Queen and her minions were all incinerated by the engine's thruster, the party and the remaining crew only narrowly escaping to a nearby catwalk. Skunk interrogated M1 about the incident, to a suspiciously vague response.
With the escape pods online, they entered the escape pod room, only to find that M1 ejected all of them and locked the crew and the party in the escape pod room, forcing them to fight the doppelgangers inside. Skunk accesses a computer terminal in there and runs through M1's files, finding a file named PSS.rat, which had been controlling M1 ever since the party arrived. Gerard is able to pry the escape pod room's door open with Mage Hand, allowing the party and the crew to escape to Proxy's bus.
Alice and Skunk were the only surviving crew members after the incident, and accompanied the party on their adventures going forward. When the P.S.S. detained Proxy and captured his group of anomalies, Alice and Skunk were abandoned by the party, leaving their fates unknown.
== Trivia ==
* Braxton's last name was originally Clark, without the e, being erroneously added by FennekinGalaxy during the summary writing process. Chris made it canon due to it better lining up with the last name of Dead Space protagonist Isaac Clarke, further leaning into the Dead Space references of the segment.
* Alice Howard is inspired by Korsica from Hi-Fi Rush.
* M1 and Dondo's names are references to the lost Weezer album Songs from the Black Hole, and characters from within it.
