## Plot

Brought to the kitchen so he could recuperate with Freddy and the Puppet waiting for him to wake up, the two force Golden Freddy to confess what was on his mind when he finally gets up, confirming Shadow Freddy's warning about Spring Bonnie's awakening and admitting that he was distressed because he didn't know how to handle the situation appropriately. Under Shadow Freddy's repeated guidance, Freddy lets Golden Freddy know that the issue is his own to deal with and that no one else can get in the way of the feud between the old friends, leaving him to think more about how he is going to deal with his former partner.

Meanwhile, Chica goes to visit Bonnie by the Show Stage and asks him if there's anything wrong, seeing how distraught he is and seeking to try and start a conversation between the two of them. But after he denies that there's anything bothering him, Chica realizes that what she's trying to do is wrong and is soon reminded of her earlier encounter with Freddy, knowing then that she had made a mistake which had hurt her friend and leaving Bonnie by himself so she too can be alone to ponder. However, Bonnie doesn't remain in one place for long; wanting payback for himself and Toy Chica being torn apart, he confronts Toy Bonnie backstage and demands that he stop seeing his girlfriend. In the end, he relents when Toy Bonnie strongly insists that he'd only been thanking her for stopping any further misfortune from coming to him, the conversation between the two of them being interrupted when Toy Chica drops by to find out the cause of the commotion. She tells Bonnie that she no longer recognizes him (because of how he'd been acting) after Toy Bonnie leaves with irritation at the couple for dragging him into their mess.

With that having taken place, Golden Freddy finally makes his decision and retrieves a fire axe from backstage an hour later, going down to the basement to confront Spring Bonnie. He has a discussion with him in which the latter finds out that he'd been trapped inside his own costume for three decades, and noted how he'd only been able to move partially because Foxy had stuffed a dead night guard into it (something which isn't properly explained). He also reveals that he is aware of how Golden Freddy had made new acquaintances with the rest of the characters, leading Golden Freddy to personally admit his guilt for what he'd done and ask for him to join the rest of them, so the two can be friends once more. Spring Bonnie seems to hint at an underlying wish to do so, saying he remembers the Puppet telling Golden Freddy the same thing, but ultimately he refuses to do so, claiming that who Golden Freddy was referring to is dead. He now refers to himself with the name of "Springtrap", and declares his new goal to destroy his old friend and his newfound allies. Knowing for certain from this that he is too far gone for him to try and save, Golden Freddy attempts to kill Springtrap, only to be overpowered by him after a hidden Shadow Freddy grants him the ability to move completely again (which, as mentioned earlier, is a flawed detail since it's implied that Springtrap doesn't actually know of Shadow Freddy's presence whenever he interacts with him, leaving the unanswered question of how Springtrap knew that this was going to happen in the first place), knocking Golden Freddy unconscious and keeping him tied up in the basement while he leaves to go after his friends.
