Search Squads

## **Plot (simplified):**

It starts off with Alarm Clock and Blue V Buddy waiting for Laptop to arrive at their location in a forest. Laptop comes out of nowhere and disrupts Alarm Clocks' train of thought. Laptop tells the two that he's planning on restarting JS Show again. Cinder Block appears out of nowhere to complain and Laptop responds in confusion since he doesn't know how he got here so suddenly. Zoon Player does the same thing shortly after. Afterwards, Laptop tells everyone that he's restarting the show, again, and looks around for more of the cast he had before, to no avail. Stress Ball also comes out of nowhere and is disappointed with Laptop since he knows the show might get cancelled again, in relation to how most object shows get canned after their first episode. Laptop reassures Stress Ball that it won't get cancelled and will go just fine, but Cinder Block thinks otherwise. Laptop then gives out the first challenge, where their objective is to find the rest of the cast from the previous show that were teleported around the island as a result of the cancellation.

We cut to the cast figuring out their plans on a beach. They all split up into separate groups of two. Stress Ball doesn't want to do the challenge with Sticky Note, and decides to stay on the beach instead. He does tell Sticky Note where one of the missing contestants, 3DS, could be. Mt. Archipelago, a mountain located on the island they're competing on. Traffic Cone suddenly bumps into Blue V Buddy. He reminds Traffic Cone that the show is starting over. Traffic Cone is kind of appalled at the thought of another show, wondering if it'll make him stay longer on the island. He tells Blue V Buddy about how he ended up where he is, and he was originally in a hole in the desert biome before wandering off to the forest. It cuts to Zoon Player and Cinder Block talking about Pineapple, and how she originally was mysterious to them both even before the previous show got cancelled. Cinder Block comments about Pineapple and how he doesn't understand who they.

Pineapple finds Stress Ball on the same beach they're on. Blue V Buddy and Alarm Clock are walking with Traffic Cone, in the forest, named The Rose Woods. Traffic Cone goes on a rant about Laptop's intentions, making Blue V Buddy and Alarm Clock feel uncomfortable. But Traffic Cone eventually gives up and goes with them both to Laptop**.** Sticky Note goes out into the forest to find Mt. Archipelago, but accidentally encounters Blackberry Juice, who comes out of nowhere and reminds him that he's close to where he needs to go. Before he can explain his story of how he got to where he is now, he's cut off by the disappearance of Sticky Note as he's going up the mountain by the time he starts explaining. He gets to the top of the mountain 10 minutes later, and finds 3DS waiting for him at the top with his shades on. Sticky Note kind of ruins his fun by explaining how there's a new show happening and his disappointment is inevitable. They both go down the mountain with Sticky Note's trusty parachute, and then once at the bottom, he tells Blackberry Juice to start running with them.

Blue V Buddy, Alarm Clock, and Traffic Cone walk through the forest, but as they do so, they come across Remote who glitches out often, even after the show ending so suddenly. Alarm Clock decides that he wants to take both Traffic Cone and Remote to Laptop and get the immunity, to which Blue V Buddy argues with him, to no avail.

A few minutes later, it shows everyone being at Laptop's location, and he goes over who got points. Alarm Clock gets 2 points, Sticky Note gets 2, and Stress Ball gets 1 point. The contestants aren't really too happy with the results as there was a clear lack of clarity with the rules. Not much is said about it. For some odd reason, even the contestants brought back were put up for elimination, most likely due to them not being a part of the challenge beforehand, though the challenge was revolved around them... anyways whatever.
