1. Welcome to the Amazing Digital Circus!
Copy !req
2. My name is Caine!
Copy !req
3. I'm your ringmaster,
and I'm here to show you
Copy !req
4. the most jaw-dropping, heart-stopping,
mind-bending paraphernalia
Copy !req
5. you've ever laid your eyes upon!
Copy !req
6. - Isn't that right, Bubble?
- That's right, Caine!
Copy !req
7. I can't wait to see
what you've got cooking up for today.
Copy !req
8. Well, let's not waste any time.
Copy !req
9. Let's get right into the show.
Copy !req
10. W-W-Whe— Wh—
Where am I?
Copy !req
11. Ah!
Copy !req
12. Caine, is this one of your NPCs,
or is this a new sucker?
Copy !req
13. 'Cause if it's a new character,
Copy !req
14. we're gonna have to redo
this whole theme song.
Copy !req
15. - I'm not doing that again.
- My, my!
Copy !req
16. It appears a new human has entered
this realm!
Copy !req
17. How do I... take this...
Copy !req
18. headset off?
Copy !req
19. Just keep grabbing at it.
Copy !req
20. That worked for all of us.
Copy !req
21. W—What's going on?
Copy !req
22. I-I-I put on some weird headset,
Copy !req
23. and now I'm...
Copy !req
24. here.
Copy !req
25. Who are you people?
Copy !req
26. Why can't I take it off?
Where am I?
Copy !req
27. Let's just try to calm down.
Copy !req
28. Everything's gonna be okay, new stuff.
Copy !req
29. We've all been through this.
You just need to get your head to—
Copy !req
30. What the [boing!] is going on?
Copy !req
31. - Wha—
- Now, now, now, my dear.
Copy !req
32. We can't have any of that
foul language around here.
Copy !req
33. The Amazing Digital Circus is a place
to be enjoyed by all ages.
Copy !req
34. You, my friend, stumbled into
an incredible world of wonders
Copy !req
35. where anything can happen!
Copy !req
36. E-Except for swearing.
Copy !req
37. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
38. U-Uh, well, h-how do I...
Copy !req
39. you know, leave?
Copy !req
40. Uh—
Copy !req
41. W-Well, don't freak out about
it or anything,
Copy !req
42. but, uh, we don't exactly...
Copy !req
43. - You can't.
- What?
Copy !req
44. Shut up, Jax.
Copy !req
45. But, yeah, he's right.
Copy !req
46. Welcome to your new home.
Copy !req
47. And your new body.
Copy !req
48. "N-N-New home"?
Copy !req
49. What do you mean?
Copy !req
50. Guys, don't be mean.
Copy !req
51. We've been stuck here for years.
Copy !req
52. Old Kinger over there's
supposedly been here the longest.
Copy !req
53. Huh? Did someone say something
about an insect collection?
Copy !req
54. That's why he's crazy.
Copy !req
55. Eh.
Copy !req
56. Ohhhh, okay! Now I get it!
Copy !req
57. This is a dream,
Copy !req
58. and I should just play along
until I wake up, right?
Copy !req
59. Whatever you say, kid.
Copy !req
60. They broke my comedy mask...
Copy !req
61. So, Caine...
Copy !req
62. We having a new adventure today
for the newbie, or what?
Copy !req
63. I'd like to give our brand new member
Copy !req
64. a tour of the circus grounds first.
Copy !req
65. - Uh—
- Off we go!
Copy !req
66. Here, we have...
Copy !req
67. This is where your living quarters are,
Copy !req
68. as well as all sorts of other activities!
Copy !req
69. These activities may include...
Copy !req
70. Ball pits, mini golf, and more!
Copy !req
71. And here, we have...
Copy !req
72. Drown yourself in the digital lake
Copy !req
73. or engage in ridery at the digital
carnival!
Copy !req
74. Night, day, it's all okay!
Copy !req
75. The choice is yours!
A cosmic buffet!
Copy !req
76. Uh, is... that all there is?
Copy !req
77. Of course not.
Copy !req
78. This is THE VOID!
Copy !req
79. We don't venture out into the void.
Copy !req
80. Not even I know what's out there.
Copy !req
81. That's, uh—
Copy !req
82. We stay right here,
where I can keep my...
Copy !req
83. hundreds of all-seeing eyes on you.
Copy !req
84. Hello, Caine. I love you.
Copy !req
85. Eaugh! Let's get outta here
before the moon gets frisky.
Copy !req
86. Wait, what's that—
Copy !req
87. Blegh!
Copy !req
88. Whoa, clean up on aisle you!
Copy !req
89. I'm on it, boss!
Copy !req
90. Why are you like this?
Copy !req
91. Wait, wait!
Copy !req
92. W-Was that an exit door I saw out there?
Copy !req
93. - Is that a way to leave?
- What exit?
Copy !req
94. If there was a way to leave,
I'm pretty sure we'd have all left by now.
Copy !req
95. Yeah,
what are you talking about?
Copy !req
96. U-Uh, I—
Copy !req
97. I assure you,
there is no "magical exit door."
Copy !req
98. You're probably just experiencing...
Copy !req
99. From your mind's transition to
the digital plane.
Copy !req
100. - But, I-I swear, I saw—
- Digital hallucinations!
Copy !req
101. How about we talk about something else?
Copy !req
102. - Like your name!
- My name?
Copy !req
103. My name is, uh...
Copy !req
104. U-U-Uh? Oh, God!
Copy !req
105. Why can't I remember my name?
Copy !req
106. Nobody can remember their name
once they enter the Digital Circus.
Copy !req
107. One of the few things I don't have control
over are your minds.
Copy !req
108. So, all I can help you with
is coming up with a new one.
Copy !req
109. What's my name?
Copy !req
110. Don't you worry your little head.
Copy !req
111. Your new name can be anything!
Copy !req
112. Hereby acknowledging that your chosen name
and or names may not breach
Copy !req
113. the Digital Circus user license agreement
Copy !req
114. stating that your name may not include
objectionable content.
Copy !req
115. Objectionable content includes but is not
limited to sexually explicit materials,
Copy !req
116. obscene, defamatory, libelous, slanderous,
violent,
Copy !req
117. and/or unlawful content or profanity.
Copy !req
118. - What are ya thinkin'?
- Huh?
Copy !req
119. I don't care.
Just pick anything.
Copy !req
120. Let's see!
Copy !req
121. What do you think of...
Copy !req
122. I don't—
Copy !req
123. You're right, terrible.
Let's try that again.
Copy !req
124. What do you think of "Pomni"?
Copy !req
125. Huh? Uh, s-sure.
Copy !req
126. - I think I just—
- Gadzooks, you're right, Jax!
Copy !req
127. We should have a brand new adventure
for our new member, Pomni!
Copy !req
128. I said that like five minutes ago.
Copy !req
129. You! Do you like adventure?
Copy !req
130. Activity? Wonder? Danger?
Horror? Pain? Suffering? Agony?
Copy !req
131. Death? Disease? Death?
Angel food cake?
Copy !req
132. You parasite!
Copy !req
133. Uh, I don't really...
Copy !req
134. Since you're new around here, we're gonna
make it a simple in-house adventure
Copy !req
135. to warm you up
to how things work around here.
Copy !req
136. Wha— No! God!
Copy !req
137. I don't want an in-house adventure.
Copy !req
138. Don't worry, Zooble.
Copy !req
139. I'll make it something unobtrusive
Copy !req
140. that you can still choose to not get
involved with.
Copy !req
141. Today's adventure is...
Copy !req
142. That's right!
Copy !req
143. The entire circus tent
will be infested with gloinks,
Copy !req
144. and you gotta catch 'em all.
Copy !req
145. - But what are they?
- I'm glad you asked, Bubble.
Copy !req
146. - They're small—
- And what do they do?
Copy !req
147. - They—
- And how do they—
Copy !req
148. Gloinks are small mischievous critters
Copy !req
149. that steal anything
and everything they run into.
Copy !req
150. Why do these humanoid hash browns do this?
Copy !req
151. How do you stop them?
Copy !req
152. That's for you to find out.
Copy !req
153. Now, good luck.
Copy !req
154. And have fun, my little superstars!
Copy !req
155. What did any of that mean?
Copy !req
156. Oh, that's just one of Caine's
little adventures.
Copy !req
157. They're just something fun to do
to, you know...
Copy !req
158. prevent us from going insane.
Copy !req
159. Speak for yourself.
Copy !req
160. If anyone needs me, then [sproing!] off.
Copy !req
161. Oh, God! Oh, jeez! No!
Copy !req
162. Oh, God! Agh!
Copy !req
163. Somebody help!
Copy !req
164. Oh, no, they killed Zooble.
Copy !req
165. Anyway, you guys wanna go
get something to eat?
Copy !req
166. Oh, wait, we should go check on Kaufmo.
Copy !req
167. I'm pretty sure he'd like to meet Pomni.
Copy !req
168. My impenetrable fortress!
Copy !req
169. You wanna come with us to check
on Kaufmo?
Copy !req
170. No, not really.
Copy !req
171. I think Kaufmo's gone insane.
Copy !req
172. Last time I spoke with him,
he was rambling endlessly about some exit.
Copy !req
173. Kind of like you, Pomni.
Copy !req
174. You might be going insane, too.
Copy !req
175. But, wait. Wouldn't that more likely
mean the exit does exist?
Copy !req
176. Could also mean you just have
a jump-start on losing your mind.
Copy !req
177. Wait, what about Zooble?
Copy !req
178. Well, I think I'd like to ask him
about it,
Copy !req
179. err, if this was real.
Copy !req
180. Which it isn't, because it's a dream.
Copy !req
181. Heh, she still thinks this is a dream.
Copy !req
182. U-Uh, why are you looking at me
like that?
Copy !req
183. I'm fine with doing whatever,
Copy !req
184. as long as I get to see funny things
happen to people.
Copy !req
185. Ow! Okay, I've already had
enough of these things.
Copy !req
186. You, me, and Pomni
will go check on Kaufmo,
Copy !req
187. which leaves Crybaby and Hoo-ha together
Copy !req
188. to go handle the Zooble situation.
Copy !req
189. Do you think
pairing them up together is a good idea?
Copy !req
190. Of course I do.
Copy !req
191. They're the two most mentally stable and
capable characters to be paired together.
Copy !req
192. Come on, ladies.
Let's go harass the clown.
Copy !req
193. My comedy mask is broken again.
Copy !req
194. Gah! Oh!
Copy !req
195. Gangle, you startled me.
Copy !req
196. So, this is where we all live...
Copy !req
197. or, well, where we all sleep at night.
Copy !req
198. Even though we don't really need to sleep,
Copy !req
199. it's sometimes nice
to kind of take a break from everything
Copy !req
200. and have a bit of a routine, you know?
Copy !req
201. I'm sure there'll be one for...
Copy !req
202. Oh, look, you already got one.
Copy !req
203. I still don't understand about
the adventures.
Copy !req
204. Why even go on them at all?
Copy !req
205. W-W-Why not try to find a way to leave?
Copy !req
206. Well, we usually do, when we first arrive.
Copy !req
207. But after a while, you start to realize
that you really can't leave
Copy !req
208. and constantly chasing an unattainable
goal will start driving you a bit crazy.
Copy !req
209. And eventually, you get to asking
what the point of anything is,
Copy !req
210. and you completely lose sight of
who you are and why you're even alive.
Copy !req
211. And when you reach your breaking point,
something really terrible can happen.
Copy !req
212. Ah, but that's not something we need to
deal with today.
Copy !req
213. Above anything else,
the adventures give us something to do
Copy !req
214. that keeps our minds healthy and
stimulated.
Copy !req
215. Thank goodness this is all a dream,
right, Pomni?
Copy !req
216. Why are we here again?
Copy !req
217. - What are we doing?
- We're getting one of our friends.
Copy !req
218. Huh. Maybe he's not in his room?
Copy !req
219. - I hope he's all right.
- Don't worry, dollface.
Copy !req
220. I've got a key to his room.
Copy !req
221. Wha— Wait, wh— why?
Copy !req
222. You— You— You shouldn't have keys
to anyone's room.
Copy !req
223. Nah, I've got keys everywhere,
and you've all been fine.
Copy !req
224. By the way, I may have left something
in your room today,
Copy !req
225. so let me know if you find it.
Copy !req
226. Uh, you're not afraid of
centipedes, are you?
Copy !req
227. Jax! That's literally my only fear!
Why would you do this?
Copy !req
228. What? It could be
a completely unrelated question.
Copy !req
229. You'll never know until it's too late.
Copy !req
230. Oh, I've been looking for this.
Copy !req
231. Thanks for keeping an eye on it, Kaufy.
Copy !req
232. I'm gonna head out. See ya.
Copy !req
233. Oh! Kaufmo's been abstracted!
Copy !req
234. That— That's okay.
Copy !req
235. What... is that?
Copy !req
236. Uh, it might be that terrible thing
I was talking about earlier
Copy !req
237. when you reach your breaking point.
Copy !req
238. - H-huh?
- O-Okay, wait.
Copy !req
239. M-Maybe there's still time to fix him if
we get Caine.
Copy !req
240. Oh, whoa!
Copy !req
241. Kaufmo, listen, I know we didn't
always get along,
Copy !req
242. like when you called me out
for fake-laughing at your jokes.
Copy !req
243. I swear, I really did think they were
funny.
Copy !req
244. I was just having a bit of a bad day!
Copy !req
245. H-H-Hey, Pomni-i-i?
Copy !req
246. Do you think... you could...
Copy !req
247. perhaps help me out here?
Copy !req
248. I understand... if you don't...
want to, though.
Copy !req
249. Ow!
Copy !req
250. I'm sorry!
Copy !req
251. I don't know what I'm
looking at here.
Copy !req
252. We saw a gloink carry one
of Zooble's pieces down there, remember?
Copy !req
253. Oh, yeah.
Thank you for the recap.
Copy !req
254. Boy, we're not very good at this, are we?
Copy !req
255. Ugh, sup...
Copy !req
256. Fellas?
Copy !req
257. Jax!
We found the Zooble hole.
Copy !req
258. Cool.
Copy !req
259. How is Kaufmo doing?
Copy !req
260. I hope he's not still mad at me
for not laughing at his jokes.
Copy !req
261. Oh, he's doing great.
Copy !req
262. In fact, I don't think
I've ever seen him this happy before.
Copy !req
263. Well, it's good to know
he hasn't completely lost his mind.
Copy !req
264. He actually asked me to give you this.
Copy !req
265. Whoa!
Copy !req
266. Heh!
Copy !req
267. An insect collection?
Copy !req
268. I think it's a nest.
Copy !req
269. - Hello?
Copy !req
270. R-R-Ragatha?
Copy !req
271. That was your name, right?
Copy !req
272. O-O-Over here.
Copy !req
273. H-Hey, look, I-I'm...
Copy !req
274. I didn't mean to leave you behind
like that.
Copy !req
275. I...
Just... look at my hand.
Copy !req
276. I...
I didn't know what to do.
Copy !req
277. I-I-It's okay-y.
Copy !req
278. What you need to do right now is
find Caine.
Copy !req
279. He'll be able to fix me up
and take care of Kaufmo-o-o-o.
Copy !req
280. O-O-Okay, but where can I find him?
Copy !req
281. Uh, I don't really know.
Copy !req
282. Just look around and call for him,
I suppose.
Copy !req
283. Uh, okay, I'll get him.
Copy !req
284. You just stay right there.
Copy !req
285. Not that you can really move or anything.
Copy !req
286. Uh, just hang in there.
I'll be right back, I promise.
Copy !req
287. Cool. Also, Pomni?
Copy !req
288. I'm sorry your first day here...
Copy !req
289. had to be so... terrible?
Copy !req
290. Uhhh, yeah, well, don't worry about it.
Copy !req
291. I'm just gonna go get Caine now.
Copy !req
292. Hello? Caine?
Copy !req
293. We have a bit of an issue here!
Copy !req
294. Ugh!
Copy !req
295. Agh!
Copy !req
296. Hmm?
Copy !req
297. Caine?
Copy !req
298. What form
of non-gloinkinian mass...
Copy !req
299. dares presume presence
in the nest of the Gloink Queen?
Copy !req
300. Oh, is that who you are?
Copy !req
301. You know,
you could have asked for my consent
Copy !req
302. before forcing me to see something
so completely and utterly disgusting.
Copy !req
303. How despicable.
Copy !req
304. A rabbitoid that runs its mouth
Copy !req
305. in the presence of my royal figure.
Copy !req
306. Well, as a royal myself,
I would like to kindly ask if—
Copy !req
307. Oh, look, there's Zooble.
Hi, Zooble.
Copy !req
308. Agh! Help me, you idiots!
Copy !req
309. Kinda rude, Zooble.
Now I don't wanna help you.
Copy !req
310. Oh, I always lose.
Copy !req
311. Yes!
Copy !req
312. Gotcha!
Copy !req
313. Oh.
Copy !req
314. Hey! Kinger, you motherf—
Copy !req
315. - Eee!
- Eh, they'll be fine.
Copy !req
316. Gotta hide, gotta hide, gotta hide.
Copy !req
317. God, where is Caine?
Copy !req
318. Huh?
Copy !req
319. You foolish assortment of colorful
characters!
Copy !req
320. Do you not realize
that everything must be gloinks?
Copy !req
321. I am gloinks.
Copy !req
322. You will be gloinks.
Copy !req
323. God will be gloinks-uh!
Copy !req
324. This is dumb and weird.
Copy !req
325. Well, b— Uh—
Y-Yet, you're still watching it!
Copy !req
326. I'm not here for the adventure or
anything. I'm just here to hide from the—
Copy !req
327. Oh, thank God you're okay.
Copy !req
328. You didn't experience a game show in
there, did you?
Copy !req
329. Uh, I—
What are you talking about?
Copy !req
330. - What's happening?
- It's just Kaufmo.
Copy !req
331. Don't worry about it.
Copy !req
332. - Kaufmo abstracted?
- Nah, he's fine.
Copy !req
333. You're right!
How are we gonna get outta here?
Copy !req
334. Guys, over there.
Copy !req
335. Huh.
Copy !req
336. Ladies first.
Copy !req
337. - No, wait, why would I say that?
- Agh!
Copy !req
338. Wait,
Pomni's not even here?
Copy !req
339. - Wasn't this whole thing for her?
- Be quiet.
Copy !req
340. I can't hear the escalator.
Copy !req
341. Oh, Bubble, you always know how
to make me say this exact sentence.
Copy !req
342. Gasp!
Copy !req
343. An alert on my WackyWatch at this hour?
Copy !req
344. Oh no! Someone's venturing out
into the void!
Copy !req
345. They'll get totally spoiled!
Copy !req
346. There you go!
Copy !req
347. Now, what the heck happened around here?
Copy !req
348. - Oh, yeah, my doing.
- Caine!
Copy !req
349. Kaufmo went through
a sort of Kaufmosis and abstracted!
Copy !req
350. Kaufmo abstracted?
Copy !req
351. Why didn't anybody tell me?
Copy !req
352. And into the cellar you go.
Copy !req
353. Man, I can't believe
Kaufmo just gave up like that.
Copy !req
354. I mean, no offense, Kinger,
but I always thought you would be next.
Copy !req
355. - Thank you.
- Guess it just goes to show
Copy !req
356. you can't rely on Kinger for anything.
Copy !req
357. I am in so much pain!
Copy !req
358. Oop!
Copy !req
359. I do have to apologize for lying
about the exit.
Copy !req
360. I knew how much all of you
have been wanting there to be one,
Copy !req
361. but, you know,
Copy !req
362. I was having so much trouble figuring out
what to put on the other side
Copy !req
363. and ended up never quite finishing it.
Copy !req
364. And you know how I never like letting
people see my unfinished work,
Copy !req
365. especially if it leads you out into
the void.
Copy !req
366. Anyway, it looks like you defeated
the Gloink Queen,
Copy !req
367. so I guess the adventure's over.
Copy !req
368. Your reward is a delicious digital feast
Copy !req
369. cooked by our head Bubble Chef.
Copy !req
370. Made with all the love
I'm legally allowed to give.
