## Plot

Team Blue has won the quarterfinals and they’re going to be the champions soon! But they soon wonder why they wanted to be the champions in the first place! They have a feeling they might have forgotten something, Then they see an angry Crusty Sean pointing to his destroyed food truck, Team Blue were supposed to win the tournament to rebuild Crusty Sean’s shop! Headphones asks Crusty Sean if there’s anything that they can do, and Crusty Sean puts aprons on for Team Blue, He needs help with his food stall and Team Blue decides to help. Headphones serves customers and does drinks, Specs prepares food with his fast speed, Bobble Hat operates the fryer and Goggles… creates publicity, and… eats the food even though he’s not the one supposed to be eating it! Bobble Hat feeds him more tempura she fried from the fryer making Goggles round. He flies up high in the air. Crusty Sean orders Team Blue to work really fast and tells Goggles to come down, But during break, they can go take a look around town.

During their break, Team Blue heads off to Inkopolis Square to take a look around town. and Crusty Sean tells them about the stores and waves goodbye, Specs want to go to the Weapons Store but Goggles and Bobble Hat go off to the Shoe Shop where they meet Gloves and the shoe shop salesman, The salesman has a lot off legs which means he can wear a lot of shoes at once! Gloves wants to wear all the latest trends in shoes at once and Goggles puts on many shoes on his tentacles which almost made Gloves lose his cool! They decide to go to the other shops too and think they’ll might run into more of their friends.

They see Aloha getting kicked out of the Clothing Shop, Army in the Headgear Shop asking Flow; the saleswoman any headgear she’ll recommend for his manual and Mask playing a game in the Shoal: the arcade, with many people watching him, If three of the S4 members are here, Skull might be here too! They see him getting lost on the roof looking for the Weapon Shop and he walks away even though Specs tells him where the shop is. Then Team Blue hears some beats and they see Off the Hook: the hottest band around in the studio in Inkopolis Square! They get to see them live in Inkopolis Square! Then Goggles puts his face on the window and they ask if they’re Team Blue, They said that Team Blue is famous for being ridiculous which Specs wasn’t happy about, Apparently they’ll be doing the play by play report for the semi finals and ask Team Blue to send the news about the Semifinals to everyone! The teams that made it into the semifinals are: Team Blue, Team Gloves, Rider’s Team Yellow-Green and defending champions Team Emperor, A guy hears them talking about the semifinals and asks if he can join in.He is Squidkid Jr a member of Team Emperor! and so many people crowd around the group, Apparently Squidkid Jr is faster than Aloha…! For Jr, the Semifinals is going to be a cinch, He has heard that Rider has been defeated by a lower ranked team! (Team Blue) He then swiped the pickled plum that Goggles was going to eat, and tells the group that the other teams can’t match up with us, Gloves tells him he shouldn’t underestimate the rest of us and attempts to swipe the pickled plum off Jr. But Squidkid Jr notices him and leaps to dodge him, He warns them that Emperor is even stronger than him, The Goggles bit his arm and got his pickled plum back and tells him that Rider’s strong too! and Jr couldn’t read his moves! Specs and Team Blue drag Goggles away.

Meanwhile in the firing range Rider was training for the semifinal match and he sees Skull who asks him where is he, He tells Rider that the S4’s plan was to take them down each, But they were overwhelming, All of their members are incredibly strong! They were no match for one-on-one, Rider tells him that Turf War is a team sport and his battle with Goggles changed the way he fights, so he’ll be able to defeat Emperor too! Skull tells him about Prinz, the one who bugs him isn’t Emperor, it’s the other one… He wasn’t doing anything impressive. He’s just like Emperor but also different…. Rider tells him that he’ll crush ‘em **ALL!!**

Later that evening, closing time came for Crusty Sean and Team Blue has made it through the whole day! Goggles is wearing his fried batter outfit and Specs looks like that he’s been fried too! Then Goggles takes it off because it’s a costume, Crusty Sean then gave them some fried food as a reward for their excellent work, and Goggles cooked up a fried Rider with his pants down, Then they see Rider who grabs Goggles and asks wwhat he was doing? Crusty Sean ate the food and his batter coat was blown off because the food was delicious! Then, the S4 and Gloves started to eat it! Rider tells Goggles to watch the semifinal match carefully because he’s going to face him in the finals and Rider, Gloves, and Goggles began to argue about who’s going to the finals.

On the day of the Semifinal match Rider’s Team Yellow-Green are facing the defending champions; Team Emperor!!
