## Synopsis

The episode begins with the Egg floating in the Void. The CatGhost title screen appears soon after and it transitions to Gideon in the dark. Gideon wakes up and realizes that he does not know where he is. Naarah shouts at him for panicking and gets annoyed. After some talking, A light appears from Naarah, lightening up their surroundings. They find out that they have new forms. Gideon is now a piece of log, and Naarah seems to be a jellyfish.

After playing around with their new forms, Elon stumbles upon them. Elon, not knowing her new form, becomes horrified after Naarah points out that she has changed. They talk for a while about Elon's new bat form, commenting and teasing on it. After Gideon accidentally offends Elon with a comment, Naarah snaps and attempts to strangle Gideon by flying around with him.

Elon separates from the group to calm herself down about her current situation. She encounters a frog creature. She panics and immedietely tries to eliminate it with a knife. Before she can kill it though, Elon hears a familiar voice. A portal appears and Malone comes through it. Elon starts to get furious as Malone tries to tease her.

Meanwhile, Naarah and Gideon try to search for Elon as they realized that she went missing. The duo encounters a computer in their search and it starts, revealing the skeletons and items from the game *Happybirthday*. Elon and Malone continue facing off each other. Whatever Elon says is displayed in the computer screen. After some talking, the computer flashes a bright light, overwhelming Gideon and Naarah. The episode ends with the Egg cracking and the credits.

## Trivia

* During the scene when the Egg is floating in the Void during the beginning, a faint picture can be seen in the background. Once enhanced, the background is revealed to be a person sitting on a chair, facing a computer on a desk.
* Throughout the episode, brief flashes of letters appear at the bottom left corner. Once all the letters are found and paired together, it forms "IWSSSPPOSEOTOBEYOURBESTFRIEND".
* In a frame during 4:02 right before *Happybirthday* starts, the symbols for Chi, Alpha and Omega coupled by the frog creature replace the shovel for a brief moment.
