**- Log -**
The episode begins with the Max the Dog intro (Studio Tree Logo, Showing the characters [Max, Perky, Skippy and Scardy] and the title card). After the intro the episode name and number shows up on the screen. A black stickfigure also appears for a few frames.

We see Scardy walk up to Max.

- what is the abc's

- I can teach you - Max responded. Shortly after, the letters of the alphabet show up on the screen (A B C D E F G H [The stickman appears a second time.] I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y [A severly glitched Max can be seen on a red background for a few frames.] Z). Finally, after the alphabet ends, Max congratulates Scardy on learning the alphabet by saying "you just learned the abc's congrats". Following on, we see the distorted Max again.

The Studio Tree Logo appears for a short moment, then we are greeted to a white background with a sad piano playing. "im alone" - A black label has appeared, followed by "i will get mark first". Few seconds after, a shaking text flows from the right to left, displaying "d2hlbiB0aGUgY2FydG9vbnMgaXMgc3BIYWtpbmcslHRoZSBjb2xvcnMgYXJlIHJhbmRvbS4g", which translates to "when the cartoons is spHaking,the colors are random. ".

A moment later, we get to see a black background with the text "ste-6-facility progress update january 26th, 1978" in the foreground. Max walks out of the void from the left, and stares at a sign - "studio tree presents: STE-6 Facility". Max and the label dissapear, but a new one shows up, this one is describing "We are finishing up the facility.", "It is planned to release next month.", [This phrase appears for few frames, and tilts before it hides.] "We are already hiring people to be facility caretakers".

A unique employee badge pops up. It contains the name of the employee and his/her job. Before it dematerializes, we are able to see Mark's certificate as a caretaker. Scardy has also stood under it, indicating that Mark and Scardy are the same people. Background turns pale white, including earlier said Scardy in the center.

- Hello? Are you guys looking for caretakers?? - Green label showed up, said Mark.

- Yes!! - Somebody with three question marks as its name reacted.

- Can i get a [Unrecognizable, possibly "shot"] I have experiance in caretaking. - The surroundings turn pitch black.

A poorly drawn tree shows up, followed by a turquoise name of the brand Studio Tree Entertainment. Shortly after, tons of the original logos appear [Heavily glitched Max also pops up for a few frames.]. "Character Showcase november 26, 1977" pops up after. We are then introduced to the main characters of the show. A song called "Run Rabbit Run" is accompanying the showcase.

> meet perky the penguin. he is the main characters best friend
>
>
> meet skippy the spider. he is the main villain. He wants to take power of the earth to make whatever he wants
>
>
>
> meet the main character, Max the Dog.

Suprisingly, the music cuts, and said background turns black YET AGAIN, but before it does, Max says "help". Max mildly glitches out, giving an output of him smiling. "i am so happy" - Max said. He glitches even more, and quotes "revenge is all i can think of", "i already got one of them". [Music resumes.]

> meet the scardy cat. he is scared of a lot of things and needs help [This text stays for only a frame, which after it alters to:] with information.

Akward Max materializes again, which Scardy responds with

- where am i

- your with me now

- you will suffer with me - They move into their own directions.

Scardy remains, he is heavily torn, and says "aGVscA==", which translates to "help". That label fills out the screen, but instantly fades away when we see Scardy's outline painted in white. The sprite fills out white few seconds later, then red. Now he phrases "aXQgaHVydHM=", which translates to "it hurts". Normal Scardy pops up right to the figure, and his glitched variant to it's left. "d2hhdCBpcyBnb2luZyBvbg==" - Text appears. Glitched, then normal Scardy dissapear, leaving the figure, which turns white. That specific figure slowly fades, and jumpscares us at the end of the episode.
