## Plot - ***THIS SECTION IS UNFINISHED***

### Cold Open

Some time after Dog Tag pressed a mysterios button, Globe calls out their name, with Clay Pot wondering about their whereabouts as well. Heavily annoyed, Grape Juice states that they ran away to get a break from Globe. Indian Drum demands silence, assured that nobody cares about Dog Tag and asking Globe to find something else to worry about. Globe declares them not as a pet, but can't find another word to identify them as, exactly what Indian Drum was expecting from him.

Cinderblock asks Picture of Picture of The Simpsons if Gaming Device wasn't announcing the first challenge, and POPOTS confirms that question. Gaming Device does remember and tries to present it, but he's interrupted as he starts to float in the air. So does everyone else. They all return back to land as a new style emerges from their landing. Cherry Cola unfortunately bursts in pieces as he is turned into stone. Mr. Snow witnesses another death, that being the one of Clay Pot.

Gem Token approaches Gaming Device, questioning his new appearance. After Gem Token has said that Gaming Device looks strange, Grape Juice finds Gem Token to look weirder. Gem Token gives Grape Juice the same comeback as POPOTS breaks up a potential fight, asking Potion about the strange art style change, as she knew the exact landing time of the contestants. Thus, all contestants encircle her, with Mr. Snow remembering the mention of an invention of Potion's, followed by Scroll's suspections of her always engaging in experiments and X-Acto Blade's knowing about how Potion is thte only one smart enough to do these kind of things. Meanwhile, Sword munches popcorn and watches how Potion will confess, much to POPOTS' confusion. Potion admits the creation of a certain device that has been dislocated, confident that no one would randomly press the button. Dog Tag returns with the exact same machine in their mouth, which Globe shows her. Gaming Device interrupts the situation, reannouncing the challenge, but Chew Toy is concerned about the deceased objects and requests Gaming Device to recover them. Resurrected, Cherry Cola wants to speak, but with a loud "blah, blah, blah", Gaming Device finally grabs the chance to fully explain his challenge.

### Challenge - Retrieve Your Team's Flag

**THIS SECTION IS UNFINISHED**
On the island, Gaming Device has teleported three differential flags on random areas. The soon-to-be-winners must retrieve their designated flag and hand it to Gaming Device. The first team to have done this is safe, as oppose to the other two, who shall be up for elimination (UFE). Scroll questions the possibilty of another team hiding another team's flag, to which Gaming Device assures her that they'll be automatically disqualified and be UFE.

Clay Pot, wanting to plan their victory, is hindered by Indian Drum's fierce plan. Grape Juice asks who decided to elect her as the team leader. Indian Drum replies that losing the first challenge is not as awful for their reputation then Grape Juice being the leader. Globe would've found it better if the leader would rather wield responsibility, as to which Indian Drum needs Globe to let it go. Clay Pot tries to warn the two about Dog Tag wandering off as they argue, she gives up eventually. Chew Toy guarantees the team shall wind up okay, but Grape Juice says otherwise. Globe has again lost Dog Tag, which Indian Drum sarcastically finds responsible.

Meanwhile, NASTY! team member Potion wants suggestions for any effective strategies. Cinderblock has none that will be of good use, but Cherry Cola announces the idea of splitting into two groups of three, which Hamster Ball and Potion approve. So, Cherry Cola splits Picture of Picture of The Simpsons, Cinderblock and Hamster Ball and Potion, Gem Token and himself up. Gem Token rather thinks of this as a race and determines to find the flag first, with Cherry Cola dragging Potion as he chases him.

um team member X-Acto Blade reincarnates the idea of Cherry Cola as three groups of two, which Sword approves. X-Acto Blade splits Sword and Outlet Cover, Mr. Snow and Scroll, and herself and Bell Pepper up in groups.

Globe and Indian Drum are still in a heated squabble, which limits Clay Pot's breaking point. She tells them that a team is meant to cooperate instead of engaging in continuous bickering. They'd lose the challenge like this, and for every other challenge to come with countless disagreements. Which concludes Clay Pot's heartful speech. Dog Tag returns with a flag, but Globe is most concerned about Dog Tag themselves. Gaming Device sees the flag however, and announces that team the. is up for elimination, as the flag is not theirs. Indian Drum sarcastic remark leads to another fight, and Clay Pot mourns, deemed typical by Grape Juice.

Noticing Cherry Cola's request to stop running, Gem Token halts. Potion asks to be released from Cherry Cola's grip, which he strongly does. After being asked why the flag might be, Gem Token suggests to search inside a cave, which he runs at. Cherry Cola and Potion chase him once more.

Hamster Ball calls out for his team's flag, which Cinderblock points out that it will not work. Still confident that it might, Cinderblock denies. POPOTS suggests to let him be. Hamster Ball chases a butterfly he has found, and POPOTS assures him to not care about Hamster Ball and focus on finding the flag. As they travel, POPOTS asks which way they should use, so Cinderblock comes up with the idea to go on seperate paths as POPOTS suggests to meet back at the spot of Cinderblock's decision; in case of not finding the flag. This happens whilst Hamster Ball runs after the butterfly.

Bell Pepper and X-Acto Blade are searching for their designated flag. Both not having found anything yet, X-Acto Blade decides to jump on top of Bell Pepper, not seeing anything nonetheless. She is then demanded to get off Bell Pepper.

Outlet Cover skims through bushes and shocks as Sword points out that that is not helpful behind her. Outlet Cover would appreciate if Sword would help her find the flag, but Sword needs her to quit complaining as she'd look like an even bigger idiot. After a worse comeback of Outlet Cover, Sword suggests Outlet Cover to search a cave as he searches the forest.
