## Overview

Based on January 3, 1983, in this episode, J decides to leave his house through the front door and when he opens it, he sees Rod's van in front of his house with Rod inside, humming his tune. That was when Mike walked to the ice cream truck, wearing a helmet and wielding an Electro Gun. Mike then angrily confronts Rod, demanding him to set Lis free. Rod tells him that he was confused and that he didn't know what he was talking about. Mike denies and again tells him that he saw Lis being captured, and threatens Rod that if he doesn't free Lis, he would fry Rod's brain with his Electro Gun. Rod sarcastically acts scared for a moment and laughs evilly asking Mike if he would think that Rod would actually know who Mike was talking about, as Rod doesn't even care to remember any of the names of the kids he captures. Angered by Mike's confrontation, Rod smacked the Electro Gun out of Mike's hands and choked him on the neck, calling him a "stupid boy," and tells Mike that he was messing with the wrong person, questioning Mike's audacity to face him. Rod was angry as Mike wasn't fat enough to be useful for him, but that was when Rod had an idea. He made Mike eat one of his special ice creams, to which Mike fell on the road. Mike was confused at first, wondering why Rod fed him a random ice cream, but did find Rod's ice cream delicious. However, Mike was still determined to "exterminate" Rod with his Electro Gun, when he noticed in horror that he was getting fat as a result of the ice cream's Secret Ingredient. Terrified, he tries to flee but Rod catches him and freezes him, eventually kidnapping him. All of this was witnessed by J, who was hiding behind the front door of his house the entire time.

Like the other games, J has 3 lives, and if he gets caught all three times, it will result with Mike being frozen in a freezer, thus being a game over. In order to achieve the Good Ending, however, J will also need to convince Charlie and Lis. who are hiding from Rod after the latter manages to jump from the van a while later. J needs to convince them to be brought to Rod's truck so that they all could come back home after rescuing Mike. In the Good Ending, Mike and others cheer in happiness on how they all managed to get home together safe and sound. Unfortunately, Rod hears them and confronts them again before freezing them. It ends with Mike, Lis, and Charlie all getting captured by Rod, but J manages to escape by hiding behind his friends and gets the secret ingredient that Rod uses in his ice creams to make people fat. Later, J manufactures all the ingredients (including the ones we got from the previous episodes) to make the special ice cream to turn himself obese to lure and get captured by Rod so he can go to his factory and save his friends from ending up in the Extraction Room of the factory.
