## Detailed plot summary

Carlos, a cartoonist lad, is drinking some tasty-ass *Wumpa Whip™*, but then Booch the camel guy comes in and greets him, frightening the shit out of him. When telling him off for his blunder, Booch inquires how much Carlos earns. Carlos obliges this request, only for Boomy the balloon to interrupt him and say that he and Rita the pig went to the attic and found a "weird hand thing" that challenged them to a game of rock-paper-scissors and lost because of Boomy's lack of hands. Carlos is pissed at this, but he reveals after Booch makes a horrible pun that this hand is his first ever character. Booch says this is tied to an incident that sees a piano fall on Carlos whenever someone utters a cursed phrase (**you all know what it is**). A piano falls on, and Carlos storms off to go save Rita out of spite for Boomy's cuckold ways.

Upon getting lost in the non-Euclidian hallways of the hotel, Carlos consults his map. Said map is actually everyone's favourite character Gabrol G. Gabrolington. Gabrol forces Carlos to listen to his half-heartedly Seinfeldian puns until he turns into Kanye West. Carlos is tired of this, and heads off further into the hotel, where he meets Dr. Robone. Robone hears about Carlos' plight to save Rita and tags along with him, turning into Aku Aku as he rambles about fighting evil. It takes them a full hour to reach the attic, and by then Booch, Boomy and Gabrol are already there ("We took the elevator, man!").

They go inside and are greeted with the sight of a horrifying brown sight: Haddy, the first ever character conceived by Carlos, with Rita imprisoned in his poop bubbles ("G̸̰̰̒͂͋̾̿̈́̇̉̊̆͘͝͝I̵̦̤̎͗͒̃̄̅̉̈̄͐̀V̶̧͈̦̮͇̣̦͚̯̅̇̆͌̅̐̆̌̑̓͋̚͝E̵̫̘͛̍̽̾́̈́͗̽ ̷̤̼͒͛͐̔̀̀̆͑̈̂͐͒͒̚͠M̴̹̲̯͙͔̯̯̝̞̆͐̔̔͋͑͂̆̚͝Ȩ̴͚̙̭͕͑̐̒͘͘͜ ̶̨̡͇̤̺̲̰͔̱̲̰̪̮̫̳̈́Ä̴̬́̍̑̌ ̵̲̺̲̋̈́̈́̍̽́̑̂H̷͙̖̭̤̫̿̄́̉̃͋̏̀͊̏͊͑͝I̴͖̳̙̰̻̹̩͉͔̮̼͛̋̃̾͒͌͂͐͘͝Ģ̵͓͓̦͔̜̳̻̲̈́̀̐́͒H̸̨̤̗̟̯̆͋̄̈́̃͐̏̍̇͆͑͝ͅ ̸̡̝̻̭͚̯͎̰̜̣̅͗͆́͋̃̍F̷̛̞̻͕̺̫͎̠̆̎̏̓̄͒̐̄̐̄̚I̸̢̗̩͓̪̥͂̽̽̀̐͛̚͝V̷̘̹̣͉̰̣͚͌̂͜͜E̸̖͎̓̎̔"). Robone charges into battle and gets obliterated ("He really is bad to the **BONE!!**") before Haddy grabs Carlos and yells for a high five. Carlos says the cursed word and a piano smashes them both. This knocks Haddy out long enough for Carlos to pop out, unscathed somehow. As Gabrol makes one final horrible joke and turns into Butch Hartman, Booch suggests they all get icecream to celebrate. The short ends with a bootleg version Ray from Star Sweepers stepping in to make his obligatory cameo ("Ugh, cameos...").
