Chief Executive Officer

**Preceded by:**

Big Cheese

*None*

The **Chief Executive Officer**, commonly abbreviated as the **C.E.O.**, is a Cog Boss, and the Cog Boss of all the Bossbots. He resides inside the Bossbot Clubhouse in Bossbot Headquarters and can be infiltrated by Toons.

Toons must build their Bossbot Cog Disguise before being permitted to enter the Bossbot Clubhouse and defeat the C.E.O.

Defeating him in a long boss battle will result in Good ol' Gil Giggles rewarding the Toon(s) with Pink Slips which will give them the ability to fire Cogs in battle.

## Appearance

The C.E.O. is a large Cog with a dark brown suit, in traditional Bossbot colors. On top of this suit he wears a golfer's outfit. He occupies 3x3 squares of space on the battlefield. He wears a golfer's flat cap on his head. His body rests upon a gold gear-shaped podium, which is attached to an undercarriage, and moves by a large metal track underneath him.

Unlike other Boss Cogs, the C.E.O.'s undercarriage does not store other Cogs.

## Battle

The C.E.O. battle is split into four separate rounds. The difficulty of the entire fight, including the average Cog level, number of Cogs, and the C.E.O.'s damage, depends on the elevator party's Variable Difficulty.

1. Before battling the C.E.O. and his Cogs proper, Toons will be infiltrating the Bossbot Clubhouse's kitchens, and fight off the Head Chef, Head Waiter and Bossbots ranging from levels 6-12, with some Version 2.0 Cogs thrown into the mix.
2. Players will then play a minigame to serve a banquet for the Bossbots in the Banquet Hall of the Clubhouse. Cogs seated at the tables can either be either Corporate Raiders, Big Cheeses or Field Specialists ranging from Levels 9 to 12, and all of these Cogs are Version 2.0. Good ol' Gil Giggles has rigged the food so that Cogs eating the food will explode. Toons must feed as many seated Cogs as possible by serving them with oil cans distributed from the conveyor belts.
3. Any leftover Cogs not destroyed during the feeding round will be battled.
4. Last, Toons fight the C.E.O. itself.

## Dialogue

### Before Feeding Round

* What's taking so long?
* I'm not paying you all to stand around! Get cracking and serve my banquet!

### During Feeding Round

* Now, let's get down to business...
* Please review the foreword for today's meeting - I listed several great links in there. You will find them at pages 2, 43, 501 and 27,330.
* This year we've made a significant increase in our average CUP. That is, Course Under Par.
* Due to our big swing this quarter, sales are predicted to land a hole-in-one.
* None of you will ever make it in business without following through. That's the key to good swing.
* I'm going to table that to make room for the main course.
* Where is my slide deck for this meal? We must go over the topics to be consumed.
* I'm glad sufficient budget has been allocated to this banquet. On an unrelated note, you will be receiving a 20% pay cut.
* There are job openings in dining services for the country club. My last staff of waiters was attacked by Toons.
* A position is also open for the Club President. The former President went AWOL under mysterious circumstances.
* We are currently investigating the disappearance of our previous Club President. Toons are suspected to be involved.
* Somebody call my Flunky. I have an 11.30 to reschedule.
* I see someone spilled oil on the seat. You can pack up your desk after the banquet.
* Waiters, you'll find yourselves out of a job if my guests aren't kept fed.
* Waiters, what's taking so long? The oil's starting to get lukewarm.
* Waiters, the food is not oily enough!
* I'll need all of you to come in on Saturday for the Stock Option report.
* And I'll need all of you to come in on Sunday to review this banquet's budget.
* I expect everyone's promotion paperwork to be filed by the end of this banquet.
* Save all questions for two to three business days, and allow at least two weeks' processing time.

### Second Phase

* (If no Cogs are destroyed)
	+ I'm glad that everyone has stayed to the end of this meeting.
	+ I have an announcement to make, my fellow subordinates.
	+ It has come to my attention that... there are TOONS in disguise in this banquet!
	+ Fortunately for us, none of us were harmed. I can't say the same of our Toony companions here.
* (If at least 1 Cog is destroyed)
	+ I notice there are a handful of leavers. No matter. I will have them melted down for scrap.
	+ But before I continue, I have an announcement to make, my fellow subordinates.
	+ It has come to my attention that... there are TOONS in disguise in this banquet!
* (If at least half of the Cogs are destroyed)
	+ And with that, I conclude this evening's-
	+ Odd. I could swear that there were more of us at the beginning. That can't be right.
	+ Argh! I should've known. There are TOONS in disguise in our midst!
* (If most/all Cogs are destroyed)
	+ And with that, I conclude this evening's -
	+ What the- Where did everybody go? Why, I ought to have all of you scrapped.
	+ Argh! I should've known. This was clearly the work of the TOONS!
* Why are you all sitting around? GET THEM!!!

### Final Phase

* Hrrrmmpph. When I need a job done right... I'll do it myself.
