The main protagonists are finally meeting up together and are now interacting with everyone. It's all nice and peaceful, but how long would that last?

## Plot

### Scene 1

The episode starts off with the scene showing Toriel’s house, where Sans, Papyrus, Toriel, Frisk, and Skylar reside. Papyrus and Toriel are making dinner while Frisk walks around helping them out. Then Skylar walks into the kitchen and calls Toriel, referring to her as “mommy.” Skylar runs over and hugs her as a way to thank Toriel for essentially adopting her. Frisk asks Skylar if she would like to help out with dinner, to which she agrees.

Toriel walks over to Papyrus and assists him in cooking. Papyrus refers that he knows what he is doing, but Toriel can clearly hear that he does not. She then hears a familiar voice that makes her heart stop. Asriel stands right behind her, giving his mom a warm smile. She stares in shock at seeing her once dead child now looking right up at her.

Asriel runs over to Toriel and hugs her with open arms. Toriel cries with tears of joy and smiles happily. Toriel tells Asriel that she thought he was gone forever, and Asriel replies “it’s a long story.” He continues on to mention “Dr. Gaster,” an old friend to Toriel that she had nearly forgotten. She then has sudden flashbacks of some of her interactions with Gaster. She states that, “My memories of him are starting to come back to me,” indicating her lost memories are slowly coming back.

Frisk walks over to Asriel and places his hand on his shoulder. Frisk is happy to have him back, welcoming home. Skylar looks over at the two and smiles at them. Then Frisk introduces Skylar to Asriel, and the other way around. After the introductions were made, Papyrus acknowledges Asriel and is happy for his arrival. Just as Papyrus was posing in confidence, the pot he was cooking in gets set on fire. He rushes over to his spaghetti and tries to put the fire out. Toriel prompts the children to greet themselves to the other skeletons in the other room.

The scene cuts to Sans, Gaster, and Arthur in the living room. Sans starts off by saying a pun, to which Gaster gets a little annoyed at his words. Then the two skeletons have a little chuckle. Gaster introduces Arthur to Sans, referring to him as “my friend.” Arthur greets to Sans with his british accent, and Sans replies with a simple greeting, then goes on to asking about how he knew about Gaster.

A callback to the second Prologue is shown where Gaster and Asriel find Arthur wandering around the area. Then Toriel and the kids come into the room. Gaster happily greets Toriel. She wonders where he has gone off to, but then thanking him for bringing Asriel back. Then Gaster notices Skylar hiding behind Toriel’s dress. He asks who she is, and Toriel states that Sans, Papyrus, and herself are taking care of her and Frisk as their own.

Skylar shyly greets Gaster and looks away as she talks quietly. The skeleton introduces himself in a calming tone, making Skylar seem less frightened. Toriel asks Frisk if he has met Gaster yet, to which the two look at each other, and Gaster winks at him. Then Asriel comes over to introduce Arthur to Frisk and Skylar. The kids greet each other happily, with Skylar smiling happily in front of Arthur. Arthur gives off a blank stare and blinks.

Asriel asks Toriel if she knows where Asgore is, then asks if they can see him again. She reluctantly agrees to visit Asgore and offers Frisk and Gaster to join them. Frisk would rather stay home with Skylar, while Gaster decides to join and take Arthur along. Toriel asks Sans and Papyrus to watch the children while they are out, and Sans says they “goat” it all under control. The scene ends with the three leaving and the others heading over to complete dinner.

### Scene 2

The next scene starts with June with her bags, getting comfy in Asgore’s home. It shows a pair of velvet flowers and some gardening supplies. June begins to question what it means for Asgore to be the king of monsterkind, seeing as how he owns a flower shop and looks like a nice and harmless guy. Asgore offers June some tea, to which she accepts and sits at the table with him.

June and Asgore are sitting across from each other on the table, and June stares down at the hot tea in front of her. Asgore asks if she likes it, and june replies that it’s “okay.” June then asks Asgore to talk about himself and his occupation. Asgore goes on the explain June about what he does on a day-to-day basis.

Asgore tends to his garden every day and drinks tea during his free time. June could hardly believe that is all he does, so she asks him more about what he does. As being the King of Monsters, Asgore made every decision for his people and promised them for their freedom. June asks about life in the underground, and it grew hard for Asgore to state a confident answer. It was a hard struggle at first for the monsters, but eventually they got used to it and made a civilization out of it. However, Asgore made a promise that they would see the real sky again and be freed from this underground cage. With lots of patience, they were all finally able to see the sun and be on the Surface.

Then, they hear a knock at the door. Asgore asks June to get comfy in the guest room while Asgore opens the door. When he greets whoever knocked the door, he cries in joy to see his son again. He gives Asriel a big hug and sobs in joy and shock. Then Gaster comes over to greet an old friend. They have a handshake and are happy to see each other again after so long.

Asriel looks up at his dad and shows him to his new friend, Arthur. Asgore looks at the four in front of his doorsteps and leads them inside for tea. Gaster is the only one who agrees with having a cup of tea with him.

When Toriel walks in, she sees June in the kitchen and introduces herself. Asgore tells Toriel that June's older sister, [Janice], had asked him to watch over June while she’s at work. Asriel happily introduces himself to June, but she does not reply back with the cheeriest response. When June heads back to her room to pack, Asriel asks to stay over the night with Asgore, and Asgore agrees that he can hold everyone in the guest rooms and offers to make them a meal.

Arthur looks down at his pockets as everyone looks away from him and questions how long he can keep his hands in his pockets.

### Scene 3

The next scene starts off with [Professor Vile] handing out finished tests to the students after class has ended. He congratulates Will on getting a 90% on the test, then spots Veronica distressed as he leaves the room. He asks why his daughter is still in the room, to which she responds asking how she did on the test. Vile looks over at the test and smiles, saying that Veronica got a perfect score, even though she guessed on the last question about Lord Vile, her ancestor. She gives her father a hug in relief as Vile shows his support for his daughter being the top student in his class. Veronica waves goodbye as Vile waves back. Vile then looks under his desk and smirks evilly. He says that he would visit Frisk, and he would sneak in. Veronica notices Vile’s smug grin on his face as he leaves the room. She starts to question on what he is doing.

### Scene 4

Skylar is shown wearing Sans’s jacket as both her and Frisk giggle like children. Sans is sleeping on the couch as Papyrus cooks breakfast. He asks Frisk to grab some butter in the fridge, but when he looks inside, there is only a sock. Papyrus gets annoyed that Sans’s sock is in the fridge. He throws the sock at Sans’s face, claiming he is too lazy to pick it up. The children giggle again at the brothers’ antics. Papyrus says that both him and Sans will head to the store to get some more, leaving both Frisk and Skylar at home by themselves. Papyrus picks up Sans’s jacket from Skylar and puts it back on Sans, then drags him out of the house, waving the kids goodbye. Frisk and Skylar look at each other, then Frisk asks what she would like to play.

Then it cuts to Sans and Papyrus walking to the store, with Vile looking at the two in the back alleyway holding out a dark vial. Vile points out that Sans and Papyrus have made their biggest mistake yet.

### Scene 5

Asriel looks confused at both Toriel and Asgore. Toriel looked displeased at Asgore as he looked distressed back at her. Gaster informs the goats that him and Arthur will be heading out into the backyard so that Asgore and Toriel can catch up.

Asriel asks why his parents look saddened at each other. Toriel and Asgore state that they divorced a long time ago. Toriel claims that she left to the Ruins after Asgore waged war on the humans, killing 6 innocent children in a fit of rage. Asgore states that he did it for the sake of the monsters, but Toriel believes that he became a power-hungry king for wanting to become a god. The plan was to obtain 7 human souls to break the barrier, thus granting monsters freedom. Toriel starts getting angrier as she raises her voice, and Asgore asks her to calm down and offers her some tea. Asriel gets sad seeing his two parents fight, and he slowly begins to cry as he remembers the old times he’s had with his family before he died. June looks over from the hallway and feels a little remorse for Asriel.

### Scene 6

Both Gaster and Arthur are out in the backyard, looking up at the blue sky. Gaster tells Arthur that he has never seen the real sky in ages as he enjoys the nice warm sun. Arthur then asks what Gaster studies. Gaster goes on to explain that he researches the SOUL and its properties, whether that would be human souls or monster souls. King Asgore wanted him to look into determination and figure out a way to break the barrier. His other project, the CORE, led him to his downfall. He describes how the magical electricity would power the underground, but Arthur butts in and explains it for him. Gaster is astonished by Arthur’s knowledge on magical energy as he explains how he learned some research from his father. Arthur smiles seeing Gaster’s interest in him. Gaster offers to teach him about Determination and souls, to which Arthur greatly accepts.

Then Gaster grows more angered as he brings up Vile’s name. Arthur questions him about Vile and why he hates him so much. He claims that he was the one responsible for sealing up the monsters underground in the first place. Arthur begins to ask why he thinks this is the same Vile, and Gaster says it’s a long story to explain, which he plans to explain inside. Arthur holds out his hand as he stares at it worriedly.

### Scene 7

#### Pre-fight

The scene starts back at Frisk’s house as him and Skylar play Spoon with each other. All of a sudden, Frisk hears something outside. He turns around and spots a man standing out in the backyard. Skylar notices him as well and gets frightened by his presence. Frisk decides to take it into his own hands and figure out why he is there. He tells Skylar to stay inside and safe while he figures this out.

Then it cuts to Frisk walking outside. The man, as we see is Professor Vile, notices that Frisk has entered the yard. He turns his head to face the child as he explains how he saw him on the news for freeing all of monsterkind. He asks a question as to why the humans trapped monsters underground in the first place, and the reason is because they feared their power.

#### Frisk vs Vile Fight

The fight kicks off with Vile doing an overhead swing with his crowbar, but Frisk retaliates and opens his left eye, summoning a sword and blocking the attack. Frisk then begins to question as to why Vile is here, and he explains that it’s all a part of his plan. Frisk’s determination increases as he prepares for Vile’s next attack.

Skylar watches the fight from Frisk’s room, feeling scared and worried for Frisk. Then she looks over at a toy knife that is glowing with a cyan hue. Her pupils turn a royal blue as she stares at the weapon.

Frisk attacks with and underhand swing, creating a red attack that aims at Vile. Vile creates dark green fire balls to counteract the attack, thus creating a large explosion in the middle of the backyard. Then Frisk creates magical determination orbs to fire back at him, but Vile dodges all of them and dows a forward roll and slams his crowbar into the ground, creating an attack that dashes on the ground and towards its target. Frisk summons a sword to stop the attack, then creates more in the air to aim at Vile. Vile runs past the swords and swings his weapon once again, but this time Frisk creates a barrier to block his attack. He activates his fear magic to the crowbar to make an explosion, thus breaking the shield. Frisk swings his sword at Vile, but he swings to the side and lands next to him.

Vile then summons one of his constructs as both of the eyes on his mask turn a dark orange. The construct is seen with a tommy gun, and Frisk summons another sword to destroy it. However, what Frisk didn’t notice was that another one was summoned while he was focused on the previous one. It grabbed Frisk’s arm and held him in place as Vile summoned another fire ball in his hands. Before Vile launched his attack, Skylar comes in and throws a cyan attack at him, giving him a scratch on his arm. Frisk was then able to get rid of the construct holding him in place and thanked Skylar for the help. However, he says that she should go back inside. Skylar refuses and begs to help, but Vile butts in and says that Skylar should have left.

Vile runs towards Skylar with his crowbar, and then Skylar unwillingly unleashes a cyan tendril towards him. It wraps around Vile’s arm and restrains him. Frisk dashes towards him, but Vile throws a flamethrower and prevents him from attacking.

Then it shows a construct on a roof, holding out its sniper rifle as it shows the construct’s vision of Skylar. Vile then releases his flamethrower, grabs his other arm, and yanks the tendril-along with Skylar- towards him as he punches her in the gut, causing her to fly back and fall to the ground. Frisk then runs towards Vile in anger and attacks, causing a huge explosion to erupt above the roof. Skylar watches in guilt, still regaining her stamina, as Frisk and Vile clash their weapons.

Frisk summons his determination orb as Vile summons another fireball, then their magical orbs explode on impact and create smoke surrounding the battlefield. Frisk’s hand is bloodied as he tries to cover his mouth from the smoke and look around for his enemy. Skylar cries out Frisk’s name in worry. Then the construct on the roof fires its sniper rifle at Skylar’s soul, damaging it immensely. She falls to the ground in pain as she’s bleeding out onto the grass. Frisk’s eyes widened as he shouts Skylar’s name.

#### After the Fight

Frisk reaches out towards Skylar and tries to help her, but Vile grabs onto his arm and injects a needle into his arm, sucking up some of the blood out of him. Frisk falls to the ground in exhaustion and stares at Skylar’s injured body.

Just then, Gaster comes out of the house and fires his red monotone hands at Vile. The Professor growls in anger as he summons a construct to use as a meat shield and escape. Asgore runs over and directs Toriel and Janice over to the children. Toriel holds Skylar in her arms as Janice quickly examines her wound. Janice directs Toriel to bring her inside so she can get the proper healing she needs.

Skylar slowly opens her eyes and looks up at Toriel, weakly saying “Mommy.” Asgore, june, and Arthur all look at the scene in sadness. Asriel runs over to Frisk and helps him up. Gaster holds his hands behind his back and claims that this is only the beginning. Then Asgore walks over to Gaster and asks him for his help on healing Skylar. Gaster’s eyes turn red and cyan as he looks down at the ground.

### Scene 8

Vile is shown staring at the entrance to the Underground. Then it shows him going through the entire Underground until he reaches the very beginning, the area where the children have fallen. He stands in front of the bed of golden flowers and holds out Frisk’s blood in the syringe. He holds out one of his artificial souls and injects the determination into it off screen. Then, he pours the dark vial into the bed of flowers, thus causing the dark substance to be attracted to the soul.

A huge red glow emits from the soul at Vile stares at it. Then, he sees Chara standing right in front of him. Chara asks who Vile is, to which he responds that he is his ally and wishes to bring harm upon the humans.
