## Synopsis

The episode starts with Saw watching the news on TV. At first, the news reporter on the screen says that Book had previously fallen into the river at Lego City, but immediately afterwards talks on how people have been walking around the land screaming “Fuck Trans”. Not only that, Book is also shown as a picture on the screen. Saw is shocked and opens the door to see Book walking and carrying a picket sign that really does read the same phrase. Enraged, Saw then screams out her lungs and explodes.

She is later recovered and goes to confront Book(and now Teardrop who is seen holding a sign saying “trans are shit i guess”) Book says that she believes that being LGBT isn’t normal to her, and also tricks Saw into thinking that Teardrop had said something similar.

After this, Saw storms over to The Loser’s building and is met with Firey. She then asks him if he knew about the ship called Fireoiny, which causes Firey to immediately slam the door in her face. Saw then screams again and asks why Book can’t just support LGBT. She then starts crying with an autotuned voice. Book notices her while carrying a basket full of laundry and walks up to her. Saw stops crying and finally, in anger, tries to reason with Book in order to get her to at least appreciate LGBT.. Book finally agrees while displaying a creepy smile as Saw runs away while screaming hysterically. The final scene shows Book with a disgusted face as the episode comes to an end.

### Errors

* In the news report, the scrolling bar claims that over 100 thousand people were infected by the COVID-19 disease, although this number sextupled (was multiplied by 6) by the time this episode was released.
	+ This happens because that part was animated in late February.
	+ However, it was updated in the French dub some time before the episode's release.
