GoodTimesWithScar's Secret Life: Episode 2

**The Secret Life Courthouse!!** is GoodTimesWithScar's second episode of Secret Life. It was uploaded on October 27, 2023.

## Plot

Scar starts off session two by doing some quick fishing before being met by Tango and Skizz. The two begin a pitch regarding their alliance before being interrupted by the secret tasks rolling in. They disperse momentarily to read them, with Scar's being: "Be PearlescentMoon's hype man for 30 minutes of the session and don't get called out". He seems confident he can do so, expressing some worries about the last part, before regrouping with the others.

Tango leads him over to Love Island, and Scar gives Pearl a quick shoutout before they continue to describe their idea for a heart service across the server, in which they can both take and distribute the hearts each player gets to give per session. It then cuts back to Trader Scar's, where he discusses plans to build up his town and hopefully tame some dogs.

He then goes off in an attempt to carry out his task, finding a group consisting of Mumbo, Martyn, Bdubs, and Pearl herself. He briefly pauses to hype her up before stumbling upon Lizzie and Cleo, asking the former for some sugarcane. She agrees in exchange for use of his enchanter when finished, and Scar's able to put in some good words about Pearl while he's at it.

Tango and Skizz call Scar back to Love Island, as they hadn't finished their pitch when he wandered off. They cut to the chase, asking him to be part of The Heart Foundation, as his ability to swindle would be useful for the alliance. Scar agrees for both of their hearts, and after further prompting, admits he'd see this as an alliance rather than a group effort/actual commitment. Not what they were looking for, the two send him on his way with the offer still standing. Each gift their hearts to him in an act of good faith, and he heads off on his way.

Scar runs into Martyn building a pool of sorts for their diving board, and is further introduced to the Big Man Shack by Jimmy. He makes a deal with them for some bones in exchange for flint and steel, however only giving them the flint. He promises the iron later before making his leave off the diving board. He goes back to Trader Scar's where he is met by Grian, with Martyn and Jimmy following suit for their promised iron. Scar offers a trade: a heart for a golden apple, which Grian initially accepts before realizing Scar was the one who'd be on the receiving end of the heart. Overall, it goes nowhere.

The next day, Scar passes Bdubs and offers him a ride on his camel, which the latter is hesitant to accept, given the camel's reputation for costing players hearts. Neither take damage along the way, however, and Scar drops him off at Pearl's mound to admire it. This somehow devolves into Scar taking camelback tours of the server, hyping up Pearl the whole way and letting them off at her base.

Tango drops by Trader Scar's to see if he has any good trades and to check up on the status of his and Skizz's invitation. Scott joins the two, and Tango proposes a wager in which they'd bet on whether Scar or Scott would pick up a thrown golden apple. The latter successfully does so, winning Tango the wager and putting Scar out two iron. He then builds a review board for the two, with each cheering about getting free stuff. While at it, Scar also puts up a sign in his base, reading: "We are big Fans of Pearl here at Trader Scars" to further his task.

Scar then reveals his plan to build a courthouse to settle various debates on the server. In need of green dye, he makes a deal with Grian in which he'd receive a cactus for his heart. He returns to his base to find BigB asking for directions to Pearl's, and after noticing his camel was gone, Scar walks him over instead. They arrive to Pearl, Mumbo, and ImpulseSV in a trapdoor pile, which quickly grows into a server-wide party. Once over, he heads to The Secret Keeper to submit his task, which he deems successful.

Once back at his base, Scar shows his newly-established sugarcane and cactus farms, as well as a mineshaft. This leads down to a large dripstone cave, which he considers making his red-life base. After some mining, he sets to work constructing the courthouse, finishing off the exterior with colors representing each of the lives given in the series. Scar then ends the episode with his hopes for the courthouse and eventual town.
