### Main Episode

The Episode Starts And In The MMC Art Style (Which Is Basically Bfdi Assets). James Lynch & Ryan Shafer Are Reading Their Old 2295 Middle School Yearbook. They See That Dixon Was The Most Likely To Get A Girlfriend, And That Was Proven Right Since He Has Been Dating Catherine Musumeci Since High School. James Was Shocked About Him Having The Best Hair, Since He Is A Cyborg. Ryan Tells Him That This Was Prior To The Events Of Cyborgtic Vengeance (The 7th Main MMC Game/Film). They See A Photo Of Them With Brandon, Ryan D, & Alex, And They Realize They Were The Best Of Buddies Back In Middle School And High School. James Tells Ryan That They Were The Ones To Help Brandon And Cheyenne Miller Get Back Together, But Ryan Tells James That They Were In A Relationship Since Third Grade, But Hardly Interacted During Middle School. It Wasn’t Until Jesse Hanville’s Dad, Jordan Hanville, Aka Gold Vile X Attacked The High School And Brandon Defeated Him That They Got Back Together, Which Was What Happened In The First MMC Episode, The Dark Beginning. Also The Fact That Jesse Almost Ruined Miller’s 9th Birthday Thanks To His Blatant Lies, Which Is A Reference To TLND Origins. Shafer Says That It's Weird That Their Gone, And James Asked Him If They Should Ask Ross If They Can Join Them. Ross Says "Don’t Bother, Now That We Know That Sniffles And Rosalie Are Creating A Machine That Allows Our Comrades To Exist In Both The MMC And HTF Dimensions With The Help Of Donovan And Emily, We Allow Anyone To Join Their Friends In The HTF Dimension If They Miss A Certain Person." Alisia Brings Up That He Would Be The Exact Opposite The Very Next Episode, But Ross Tells Her That The Beginning Of That Episode Is Getting A Massive Overhaul For What It Is, But It Will Have The Same Concept, Causing The Fourth Wall To Fall On Trip. He Gets Annoyed At What He Just Said And Tells Ryan And James To Go. So They Head Off To The Dimensional Transportation Modulator, Activate It, And Step Right In As It Fades To Black Once We Go Into The Vortex We Then See The Famous Vortex Like Backdrop With The Series Title With Cold's Remedy Playing(Ment For The TV Release, Youtube Release Will Have Mvci’s X Vs Zero Track [25% Faster And 3 Pitches Higher] Replacing Ethan Maxwell's Demise As Of 2/12/2021). We Then Transfer Into The HTF Dimension, We See Carina With Trevor Watching A News Article About People With OCD. Anchorman Skaggles The Squirrel States That "People With OCD Can Turn Evil Under Extreme Pressure, Much Like PTSD Sufferers, And Anyone Who Has A Mild Case Of PTSD Still Can Turn Evil Like Chronic PTSD Sufferers" Trevor Spits Out His Drink And Is Shocked By This, And Says That Both Zoe And Petunia Have OCD. Carina Tells Him That Zoe's OCD Is Much Severe Than Petunia, Due To The Fact She's Also Diabetic. Trevor Asks Carina If She Heard The Other Thing The Newsman Said, And Carina Says She Already Know What He Said About People Like Her. She Says That Her Evil Alter Ego Only Engages When She Feel Threatened, Or If She Sees Anyone Else Is In Danger. This Wasn't Effective Against The Fourth Of July Fireworks Though, As She Said That She Murdered Everyone On That Night, And She Was So Traumatized From That Moment, As Well Being Drenched In Blood Like Carrie White. Trevor Remembers That Night, As He Regrets Ever Taking Her To See The Fireworks. Carina Says That Everyone Makes Mistakes. Trevor Suggests That They Should Find Her Before She Flips Out, And Carina Agrees As Set Off To Find Zoe Before Anything Bad Happens To Her. Meanwhile, In The Other Part Of The City, The Interdimensional Rift Opens And James Lynch And Ryan Shafer Step Out. Shafer Notice His Teeth Are Buck And Is Surprised. James Then Tells Him That Beavers Usually Have Teeth Like That. James Then Says His Head Feels Weird, And Ryan Says That He Has Antlers, And James Says "Oh, Right. I Guess Donovan's Predictions Were Right." Shafer Then Says That It Could Have Been The Animators Making Them Like This To Show What They Eventually Would Look Like. Causing Xeba To Crash His Motorcycle Into A Tree And Being Impaled On A Tree Branch By His Chest, Causing His Heart To Be Exposed. Ryan Says That They Should Find Their Friends Instead Of Breaking The Fourth Wall. James And Ryan Set Off To Find The Rest Of Their Friends (That Being Alex, Brandon And Ryan D). We Then Transfer Over To Zoe's House. Zoe Is Seen Sleeping As He Alarm Goes Off, She Turns It Off And Wakes Up. She Looks Outside And Sees A Beautiful Day. She Says It's Beautiful Outside, And Can’t Wait To Meet My Friends So We Can Hang Out. She Heads Downstairs And Makes Pancakes For Breakfast. One Drop Of Syrup Gets Onto Her Sweatshirt. She Gets Upset About It And Say's That She Just Washed It Yesterday. She Takes A Deep Breath And Gets A Paper Towel And Wipes It Off. After Having Pancakes, Zoe Looks At The Newspaper And Is Shocked To See That People With OCD Can Turn Evil Under Extreme Pressure, Much Like PTSD Sufferers And Anyone Who Has A Mild Case Of PTSD Still Can Turn Evil Like Chronic PTSD Sufferers. She Sees This And Starts To Hyperventilate, Before Calming Down. She Says That She Hopes That Doesn't Happen To Her. Zoe Hastily Closes The Newspaper And Burns It On The Fireplace. She Takes A Few Deep Breaths And Heads Outside. She Says That She Got To Make Sure She Don’t Get Dirty, Because The Chance Of Her Turning Evil Is Very High Since Her OCD Is The Worst Type. She Then Thinks That Maybe Her Friends Can Help Her Find Something Relaxing To Do. Zoe Goes On Her Walk, Before She See Cuddles And Nutty Having An Ice Cream Fight In Front Of DQ, Where They Throw Scoops Of Ice Cream At Each Other. Cuddles Says That It's Like Throwing Snowballs And Nutty Says That It's Flavored And Sweet. Dylan Tries To Separate The Conflict And Says That DQ Needs The Ice Cream For The Customers. The Fighting Continues As Zoe Thinks Of A Solution. She Then Says That She Should Stay On The Opposite Side Of The Sidewalk, And Crossover At The Next Crosswalk, Since It’s Just Up A Bit. Zoe Walks Pass The Conflict And Doesn’t Get Dirty And Nutty Tells Cuddles That They Should See How Much He Can Hold In His Mouth. Cuddles Throws Five Ice Cream Balls Into Nutty’s Mouth And He Tries To Swallow But He Swallows Too Much And Chokes To Death. Cuddles Backs Away, As Dylan Sees Nutty Dead And Goes To Clean Up The Mess. Dylan Sighs And Says That He Hates His Job. We Circlewipe To A Park, Zoe Feeds The Pigeons With Bird Seed. She Then Hears Something Closeby. Cub Asks His Dad Pop If He Can Open His Chocolate Milk, Because He Can't Open It. Pop Opens The Bottle, But Milk Splashes Out. Pop Sees The Drop Heads Towards Zoe. And Hastily Runs Towards Her, Zoe Sees The Droplets Of Milk And Just Before It Can Soak Zoe, She Sticks Her Tongue Out And Savors It. She Knows That It's Chocolate Milk And Wonders If Anyone Have Some Nearby. Pop Runs Up To Zoe, As He Catches His Breath. Zoe Asks Pop What's Going On And Pop Tells Her That He Was Trying To Open His Son’s Chocolate Milk, And Droplets Splashed Out Of It, And It Would Have Landed On Her, Which Would Have Been Bad. Zoe Asked Why And Pop Asks Zoe If She Knows That Story About OCD People Having An Evil Alter Ego And Zoe Says That She Knows A Little Bit About It. Pop Tell Her That It Was A True Story. He Explains That Just 3 Weeks Ago, Sniffles Saw Petunia Murdering People And He Knew That Petunia Would Never Do A Thing Like That. So He Gathered His Scientist Friends Eva, His Wife Rosalie, Aiysa, And Several Other Doctors, Nurses And Scientist To Analyze This Situation, And That Where They Found That People With OCD Can Turn Evil Under Extreme Pressure, Much Like PTSD Sufferers And Anyone Who Has A Mild Case Of PTSD Still Can Turn Evil Like Chronic PTSD Sufferers. Zoe Said That She Saw That Story And It Made Her Hyperventilate But, Luckily She Kept Her Composure And Got Herself Calm. Pop Then Warns Her To Should Watch Her Back, Because Some Pranksters Might Cause Her To Turn Maverick And Cause Her To Kill Her Friends. He Then Tell Her That He Himself Is A Superstitious Man, After What He Went Through With His Second Wife McKenzie’s Death. Zoe Keep His Warning In Mind And Continues Her Walk, As Pop Still Feels Worried About Zoe, As Cub Walks Up To Him. Cub Asks What's Wrong, And Pop Says That Everything Is About To Go Downhill In A Matter Of Time For Her, As Well As The People Who Are Searching For Her So They Can Help Her Avoid Zoe Turning Evil. Later, Zoe Walks Along A Sidewalk, With No Speck Of Dirt To Be Seen. The Mole Is Seen Raking Leaves. However, The Wind Blows The Pile And Zoe Ducks Just In Time. The Mole Is Relieved That The Leaves Didn't Hit Her. Zoe Tell The Mole That She's Trying Her Best To Avoid Getting Dirty, Because One Speck Of Dirt Or Gunk Might Make Her Go Maverick. The Mole Was Surprised That Zoe Heard About That OCD People Turning Evil Story As He Tells Her That She Should Warn Her Boyfriend About This. He’s In Town Trying To Fix A Broken Power Cable. He Also Heard That Trevor And Carina Are Looking For Her. Zoe Becomes Worried About People Being Concerned About Her, And The Mole Tells Her That Her Evil Alter Ego Is The Most Evil, Terrifying, And Ruthless Evil Alter Ego, Even More Ruthless That Brandon’s Evil Alter Ego. Zoe Asks Him What Her Name Is And The Mole Tells Her That It's Her Name Spelled Backwards. Zoe Is Surprised About It And Says "Oh My God! My Evil Alter Ego’s Name Is My Name Spelled Backwards?! What Is This? 2017?" The Mole Then Says "Well That Episode Did Get On The Happy Tree Friends Specy Spooktacular: Halloween Lost Files DVD Set Released A Year After That Episode Released." Zoe Says That Now That She Knew That She Could Possibly Kill People And Show No Remorse Doing So, She Should Be Extra Careful Not To Get Dirty. As She Was About To Leave, The Mole Stops Her And Tells Her That She Would Have Slipped On A Banana Peel If She Walked Further. Zoe Thanks The Mole And Zoe Picks Up A Banana Peel And Puts It In A Trash Can, And Walks On. Zoe Comes Across A Crossing Light And Waits For It To Turn Green. Zoe Wonders If She Should Stand Here, But She Looks Down At The Road And Sees A Mud Puddle, And Decides To Get On The Opposite Side Of The Crosswalk. A Car Runs Over The Puddle And Splashes Zoe Despite Her Being On The Opposite Side. Zoe Wonder If Logic Doesn't Make Sense. She Knows Mud Can't Hurt Her And Says That She Was Gonna Take A Shower Once She Got Home Anyways. Zoe Keeps Her Cool And Carries On Walking. She Sees A Trash Bag Lying On The Street. Zoe Throws It Onto A Pile Of Trash Bags. As A Shadowy Figure Gets Behind The Trash Can She Was At. The Figure Plots His Biggest Prank Ever, And That Is Triggering Yelniah Eoz. The Shadowy Figure Grabs The Can And Dumps It On To Zoe, Causing Her To Get Buried In Trash. The Figure Runs Away As We See Zoe In The Trash Pile. Zoe Notices That His Voice Sounds Like Pranky's. She Says That She Need To Get Out, But Before She Could, One Of The Bags Rip Open, Causing Zoe To Get Covered In Trash. Carina And Trevor Run Up To The Situation And See Zoe Buried In A Trash Bag Pile. They Gasp In Shock, Knowing What Was Going To Happen Next. Zoe Says That She Hate Being Drenched In Trash And Had A Nightmare Of This Exact Thing Happening And It Had Me Kill Everyone. Suddenly, Something Triggers Within Zoe. Zoe Says That Whoever Did This Will Suffer Dearly She Was Gonna Find The Bastard Who Did This To Her And They Will Die, As Zoe Transforms Into Eoz While Saying They Will Die, As Her Eyes Turn Blue And Zoe Lets Out An Angry Scream. Blue Lights Emerge Through The Trash Bags Until Zoe Turns Maverick And Sends Trash Flying Everywhere. We Then See Xavier Fixing A Faulty Power Line As He Hears Zoe Turning Maverick As Well As Seeing Flying Trash Bags. Xavier Asks Why She Sounded Different As A Trash Bag Hits Xavier’s Ladder And It Starts To Lose Balance. Xavier Says That He Need To Grab Hold Of Something, But Things Go To Slow Motion As Xavier Realizes What Happened To Him In Song Of The South. He Realizes That He Has No Hands And Can't Grab On To Anything. Xavier Slips Off The Ladder As His Teeth Grab The Power Line And He Gets He Gets Electrocuted And Charcoaled. The Wind Blows His Ashes Away, Leaving His Blacken Hard Hat As It Falls On The Ground. Zoe Then Goes To Kill The Person Who Did This To Her, As Well As Anyone Else Who Stands In Her Way. Zoe Walks Away And Laughs Evilly As We Zoom Out To See Carina And Trevor, As We Cut To Carina And Trevor Seeing What Happened And Being Shocked. Trevor Said That This Is This Is Not What They Wanted To Happen And They Should Do Something About It! Trevor Sees Carina Stands Frozen In Shock. Carina Is Speechless As Something Snapped In Carina As She Sees Visions Of Her Friends, Eventually Trevor, Being Brutally Murdered By Zoe. She Then Starts Admitting A Blood Red Aura Which Trevor Sees. Trevor Asks Carina If She's Ok And As Trevor Walks Up To Her, Karina Stops Him From Progressing Any Further. Karina Tells Trevor To Stay Out Of Her Business As She Has A Maverick To Slay. Karina Dashes Away At The Speed Of Light As Trevor Is Shocked About What Is Happening. James Ask Dolbear What Is Happening And He Says "Dude! You Won’t Believe This! Zoe Has Turned Maverick And Is Killing Everyone!!! You Need To Escape Before She…" But Before Dolbear Could Warn Them, His Head Is Impaled By A Mop Handle Zoe Threw. Shafer And James Sees Zoe Did Turn Maverick. Zoe Asks The Two Who Pranked Her And James Says That They Don't Know What She's Talking About And That They Didn't Do A Single Thing.

Zoe Tells Carina To Help Her And She Sees Zoe Crushed Underneath A Scaffolding Pipe, And Uses Her Strength To Lift It Off Her. She Tells Zoe That She Am So Sorry About What Happened. She Couldn’t Control Herself, And Zoe Would Have Killed Everyone If She Didn’t Stop Her. Zoe Says That It's Ok, And Everyone Makes Mistakes. She Says That They Both Made Mistakes, And Karma Picked Her To Have The Worst Of It. She Tells Carina That She Can Not Move At All And Says That She Thinks That She's Paralyzed And Asks Her To Take Her To The Hospital.

Doctor Dygert Appears And Tells Zoe That What Happened To Her Was The Result Of Someone Trapping Her Into A Pile Of Trash With One Of The Bags Being Partially Ripped. He Tells Her That She Will Make A Full Recovery, But May Need Another Week To Heal. Zoe Is Still Wondering Who Did This As The Gang Then Hears Laughter Coming From The Corner Of The Room. Pranky Says That He Pranked Zoe, Causing Trevor To Be Concerned. He Said It Was Funny And He Saw That Everyone Was Angry Instead Of Laughing. Pranky Then Says That They Had No Humor And That Caused Trevor To Snap As He Grabs His Saber And Chases Pranky Down The Hall. Brandon Was In Another Room As He Sees The Chase.
