### Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two

In "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?", 9-Ball is first shown with the contestants and the eligible debuters on the ground when Two flies up to the top of the Hotel. Due to being high up, the contestants cannot hear Two's calls to do Cake at Stake. After Nickel fails to hear their calls, Two uses their telekinesis to bring the contestants and the eligible debuters up.

9-Ball gasps when Rubber Spatula is sent falling through the floor. Later, Two tells them that they only got 1,033 votes. They comment that that number sounds hard to spell, and that they wouldn't care anyway. 9-Ball can also be seen inside the hotel as Two and the contestants take the elevator down.

* 9-Ball, Avocado, and Onigiri were each one of the many recommended characters that were recommended on Reddit for IDFB 2, but were instead put in BFB 2.

	+ 9-Ball is also the only one of these three to be recommended prior to this, and the only one to not be food.
