Iceologer's Revenge

* Steamed Ale (standard short)

**Iceologer's Revenge** is the fourth short video in the *Anonymous Frog*series. It is loosely based off Minecraft's 2020 Mob Vote, which took place the previous week.

This video follows the perspective of an Iceologer who's angry about his loss in the mob vote and blames it on Dream. He is accompanied by a Moobloom, who despite losing the vote as well, doesn't complain much about it.

## Plot

An Iceologer and a Moobloom walking in some snowy mountains express their frustration about the Glow Squid's victory in the Mob Vote towards and believes that Dream was responsible for the unfairness of the vote and needs to be punished for it.

The duo plan to find Dream's house, record video footage of him and his face and upload it to TikTok. They will pretend to be Jehovah's Witnesses with hidden cameras up their face masks in order to not arouse suspicion. The plan works.

The Iceologer returns home to a woodland mansion, ready to upload the footage, only for Dream to show up. The Iceologer initially wants Dream to include the Iceologer as the 5th hunter and pay him $2 million, but Dream refuses, prompting the two to fight.

During the fight, the two use their respective weapons. Dream uses a diamond axe, while the Iceologer uses a wand that shoots ice. Halfway through the fight, both end up in the snowy mountains. The fight ends with Dream getting whacked with a gun and buried waist deep in snow and getting shot at by the Iceologer, who then walks away. He survives.

## Trivia

* This is the first standalone *Anonymous Frog* short to take place at present day.
* This video marks the first appearance of Dream's current look.
* Jehovah's Witnesses are a denomination of Christians who are most commonly associated with going door to door to push their beliefs onto other people.
* The mispronunciation of 'Jehovah' by the Iceologer was caused by an error in the text-to-speech program, causing the J to be pronounced with a 'Y' or a 'H' sound. He lampshades this by saying he spent 4 years at Yale, referencing this joke
* Dream's *Anonymous Frog* counterpart lives in an apartment on the 7th building of an unnamed street, which according to the Iceologer, is located in Florida.

* The dimensions of the hidden camera used by the Iceologer, the *Illtec Spycam MK17,* is 4.2 millimeters wide, 6.9 millimeters tall, and 2.7 millimeters long.
	+ The coordinates used references Minecraft's X, Y and Z coordinates ingame
	+ The X and Y coordinates, 4.2 and 6.9 millimeters respectively, reference 420 and 69, both commonly joked numbers.

### **References**

#### Grand Theft Auto

* Dream used lines from Big Smoke, a character from the video game *Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.*
	+ Big Smoke was a gangster who worked for the Grove Street Families. Tempted by power and money, he betrayed them so he can run a drug business.
	+ Coincidentally, the Anonymous Frog, who is Dream's father in *Anonymous Frog* canon, also uses a Big Smoke line in *The Anonymous Frog Show,* possibly proving their relationship*.*
		- GradeAUnderA also uses a line for Big Smoke's order in *GradeAUnderA vs Dream*.

#### Minecraft

* Many people believed that the mob vote was heavily influenced by Dream on Twitter. Dream allegedly told people to vote for the Glow Squid, then rewarded voters by following them. This resulted in dividing the *Minecraft* community, leading to several people standing up trying to either defend or 'cancel' Dream.

#### Dream

* Dream has infamously never shown his face online. He has constantly teased a face reveal when certain goals were met. Even though those goals were achieved, he still never revealed his face.
	+ Dream claims to have medium length blond hair, green eyes, and freckles. According to the Iceologer, this is enough information to find him.
		- Dream also lives in Orlando. Florida, which may also narrow down the amount of people the Iceologer has to check before he finds him. Even with these odds, the Iceologer still finds Dream first try.

* The clip where Dream finds the Woodland Mansion came from a livestream where Dream attempted to speedrun a woodland mansion. He cleared it in 17 minutes.
	+ Another clip was used from the same stream. In the stream, Dream breaks back into the mansion, while in the video, the clip was used to show Dream breaking through windows to find the Dream Slayer, with Dream's chat and sound effects being dubbed over with separate audio to fit the context.
* The fake Jehovah's Witnesses use Dream's own quote (*Only a small percent actually subscribe*) as a tactic to convert him to Christianity.
* The axe Dream uses to attack the Iceologer is reminiscent of the Dream Slayer, a similar axe used in his *Minecraft Manhunt* series. It originally belonged to Sapnap before Dream killed him and stole it.

#### TikTok

* TikTok is a video sharing mobile app owned by Chinese company ByteDance. It was threatened to be banned in the United States by the Trump Administration unless bought out by an American company, citing security concerns involving the Chinese government collecting private information about US citizens.

* Technically, the Iceologer's footage would violate TikTok's Terms of Service because it publicly reveals Dream's face and address and was a deliberate attempt to breach his anonymity.

#### Other

* The 'proof' the Iceologer presents that claims Dream was responsible contains many references
	+ Dream himself is labelled with 'old enough to buy beer', as he's 21 when the video came out.
	+ Donald Trump, the President of the United States when the video was uploaded, is located left from Dream.
		- Trump got COVID-19 at the start of October, around the same time as the mob vote.
		- There's also a claim that Trump also rigged the voting system to his advantage.
	+ The Anonymous Frog is located on the bottom right corner.
		- He was last seen at Area 15 on September 20th 2020, referencing *Raiding the Base.*
		- There's a label on the line between the Frog and Dream saying 'father?', referencing how Dream is canonically the Anonymous Frog's son.
	+ On the far right is the Iceologer himself, shown as his ingame render rather than his cartoon counterpart.
		- He claims that his 'OP' ice powers can defeat Dream, foreshadowing his eventual victory.
		- He also claims to be associated with the BadBoyHalo fan cult, referencing BadBoyHalo, who's skin is similar to the Iceologer's.
	+ The Mojang Studios logo can be found on the bottom.
		- The claim presented says Notch, the creator of Minecraft was spotted with Dream on January 21st 2020, which is the upload date of his Minecraft Manhunt appearance
			* This claim is useless as Notch is no longer affiliated with Mojang starting from 2014.
	+ The Glow Squid, right next to Dream, is labelled 'seemingly useless', referencing how the Glow Squid doesn't display light or drop any special items.
	+ Below Dream is a vote ballot paper with what appears to be a slot machine on it
	+ On the bottom right from Dream is a green coloured alien.
		- Both are labelled as having superhuman abilities and reflexes, referencing how Dream plays Minecraft better than most other people.
	+ On the bottom right corner is a green crewmate from *Among Us* with the label *'green sus'.*
		- 'Sus' is the shortened version of 'suspicious' that *Among Us* players commonly use to accuse other players of being the Impostor, usually wrongfully.

### **Continuity**

* The Iceologer claims that the Anonymous Frog is Dream's father, which in *International Frog of Publicity,* turns out to be true.

*Raiding the Base*

* The Anonymous Frog was supposedly last seen by the Iceologer on September 20th 2020.

### In later videos

### **Errors**

* Dream's doorbell doesn't make a sound
* The clips used of Dream finding the Woodland Mansion take place during the day, when the scene is supposed to take place during the night.
* The woodland mansion in Dream's speedrun is nowhere near a large snowy mountain biome like the one shown in the video.
