Moldy’s Childhood

Moldy’s Childhood is a deleted scene from One: Faith of my Friends, in which Moldy tells Light, her team and Carl’s team her childhood when Rocket and Amber ask about her early life before she when spelunking and got the mold.
== Synopsis ==
After Subway Seat tells about the time a person spilled coffee on him while he was still an inanimate object, Amber is curious and invests on Moldy’s early life. Rocket agrees, asking Moldy about what her early life experience was. Moldy was reluctant at first, but after Fluffy begs, she decides to tell them her childhood.
In a flashback she reveals that her mother abandoned her in the streets when she was a baby, due to her looking too much like her father, who passed away before she was born. Patchwork (who was a very tiny kitten at this time) finds her and keeps her warm in order to stop her crying.
Patchwork then takes her to an orphanage, where the owner, a bamboo flute, takes her in and names her Charlotte. Few days later, Charlotte, now a kid, is excited to be adopted. However, due to what people call her “bland-looking”, she was ignored by potential parents, who prefer the other kids. 
And despite the bamboo flute’s kindness, she never stood up for Charlotte when the other kids were bullying her. The only friend she had was Patchwork, who was the only one to stand up for her. She always idolizes a famous dog (who she describes as a “famous astronaut explorer who explores the galaxy to this day”) Laika and wishes to be unique like her. 
Then one day, she accidentally knocked down a frying pan, while the heat was still on, and set the orphanage on fire by accident. Patchwork manages to rescue all the kids, however, the bamboo flute didn’t make it, stated that she died from being crushed to death and smoke inhalation. 
All the kids, except Patchwork, blame Charlotte for the orphanage owner’s death. She runs away crying before Patchwork can even stand up for her. Patchwork manages to catch up to Charlotte and comforts her, taking her to an apartment to check in for her and promising that she’ll help her success her life, no matter what.
After the flashback ends, Light, who’s slightly in tears tells Moldy that she didn’t deserve to have a rough childhood and that she deserves better. Light also tells her that her hero has never explored the galaxy when her hero went to space because Laika died a really long time ago, due to suffocation hours into the flight.
Light comforts Moldy when she hears about this and tells her that even that she’ll never go to space, she’ll always be a great friend to everyone.
== Why it was deleted ==
Producer Ellen DeGeneres states that the reason why it cut is because it would be too depressing for a kids film, saying that Quackers’ and Light’s deaths were depressing enough.
