1. Another chess piece, huh?
Copy !req
2. How are you holding up?
Copy !req
3. I just don't know
what's happening.
Copy !req
4. We never made anything like this.
Copy !req
5. I just hope that...
Copy !req
6. Wait...
Copy !req
7. A-Are you...
Copy !req
8. It's...
Copy !req
9. you.
Copy !req
10. Oh my God.
Copy !req
11. I-I...
Copy !req
12. I wish I could remember your name.
Copy !req
13. Yeah. Same.
Copy !req
14. I'm...
Copy !req
15. I'm so sorry I roped you
into this with me.
Copy !req
16. It's quite strange, isn't it?
Copy !req
17. Listen...
Copy !req
18. no matter what happens, I'll always—
Copy !req
19. And into the cellar you go!
Copy !req
20. Golly, uh, we're running
out of humans here.
Copy !req
21. Now, don't you go abstracting on me, too!
Copy !req
22. Uh, seriously.
Copy !req
23. Uh, wh—
Copy !req
24. What—
Copy !req
25. Hello? Uh, guys?
Copy !req
26. I, uh— I—
Copy !req
27. I can't figure out how to—
Copy !req
28. Guys? Hello?
Copy !req
29. Can you help me out here?
Copy !req
30. Wh—
Copy !req
31. What's— What's happening?
Copy !req
32. Uh, can anybody hear me?
Copy !req
33. I can hear you.
Copy !req
34. Are you okay?
Copy !req
35. U-Uh, wh— who are you?
Copy !req
36. How do I take this off?
Copy !req
37. I'm...
Copy !req
38. I—
Copy !req
39. Wow-wow-wow-wow!
Copy !req
40. A new one?
Copy !req
41. - So it is possible!
- Uh—
Copy !req
42. Looks like you got
a new buddy after all, Kinger!
Copy !req
43. "Kinger."
Copy !req
44. - Right.
- I— Wh—
Copy !req
45. Is this really—
Copy !req
46. I was hoping
new minds could show up!
Copy !req
47. I have to make some more preparations
for this amazing breakthrough!
Copy !req
48. Wh— I—
Copy !req
49. H-How do I get out of this?
Copy !req
50. I don't know.
Copy !req
51. Wh— What do you mean?
Copy !req
52. But everything's gonna be okay.
Copy !req
53. Do you... remember your name?
Copy !req
54. I'm... I...
Copy !req
55. I'm...
Copy !req
56. Ragatha?
Copy !req
57. Huh?
Copy !req
58. You doing okay?
Copy !req
59. That's a good question.
Copy !req
60. Welp, really hate to say it,
guys, but I told—
Copy !req
61. Don't you even!
Copy !req
62. Do not even f*****g
begin to say that sentence
Copy !req
63. like you didn't try to keep us
all trapped here forever.
Copy !req
64. Anything could have happened
when you pressed those buttons.
Copy !req
65. It doesn't matter.
Copy !req
66. It seemed to matter back when you did it.
Copy !req
67. What if you did ruin
our one chance at leaving?
Copy !req
68. And what if Abel was secretly evil?
Copy !req
69. What if we all got stranded in the void?
Copy !req
70. "What if,"what if,"what if."
Copy !req
71. It wasn't real...
Copy !req
72. So it doesn't matter.
Copy !req
73. Never did.
Copy !req
74. How can you say that like you didn't try
to f**k us all over?
Copy !req
75. He's right, though.
Copy !req
76. What— Gangle...
Copy !req
77. It doesn't matter
what could have happened.
Copy !req
78. We could argue about it
and hurt each other all day long,
Copy !req
79. but that's not gonna help anybody.
Copy !req
80. I think...
Copy !req
81. what we need to do now...
Copy !req
82. is to just be there for each other.
Copy !req
83. She's right.
Copy !req
84. We've all done bad things.
Copy !req
85. But we're also all we've got.
Copy !req
86. I think...
Copy !req
87. we need to abandon the idea of leaving.
Copy !req
88. What— What are you—
Copy !req
89. We got our hopes up, and we were let down.
Copy !req
90. I don't know what exactly
happened with Kaufmo...
Copy !req
91. but we can't let that despair consume us.
Copy !req
92. We should focus on what we have.
Copy !req
93. Like you said...
Copy !req
94. constantly chasing an unattainable goal
will drive us crazy.
Copy !req
95. Maybe what we have to do now is to just...
Copy !req
96. live.
Copy !req
97. Oh, man.
Copy !req
98. I had dreams...
Copy !req
99. and— and goals.
Copy !req
100. I wanted to be able to leave my mark
somewhere in the world.
Copy !req
101. How am I supposed to just abandon that?
Copy !req
102. You've made a mark in my life.
Copy !req
103. I know.
You're probably right, but...
Copy !req
104. it just...
Copy !req
105. really, really sucks.
Copy !req
106. We're all in this together.
Copy !req
107. And we'll always be in this together.
Copy !req
108. No matter what.
Copy !req
109. Hey.
Copy !req
110. That includes you, too.
Copy !req
111. Huh?
Copy !req
112. Listen, we're not gonna
have you wandering off alone somewhere
Copy !req
113. and abstracting, or something.
Copy !req
114. You're a pain in the ***t, but...
Copy !req
115. you're still one of us.
Copy !req
116. You—
Copy !req
117. Heh.
Copy !req
118. You think I'm capable of abstracting?
Copy !req
119. You guys worry too much.
Copy !req
120. We need a vacation.
Copy !req
121. I— I-I don't understand, Bubble.
Copy !req
122. They want an exit. They want answers.
Copy !req
123. They want something real.
Copy !req
124. I give them an adventure
that covers all of that,
Copy !req
125. and they still hate it?
Copy !req
126. Surely they don't want
to actually leave me.
Copy !req
127. - Right?
- No way, Jose.
Copy !req
128. No way, no how.
Copy !req
129. I-I do everything for these people.
Copy !req
130. I slave over these adventures for them.
Copy !req
131. I step outside my comfort zone
to appeal to them,
Copy !req
132. a-and they still hate them!
Copy !req
133. I made a program that creates a body
Copy !req
134. perfectly encapsulating their mind files,
Copy !req
135. and they hate those, too!
Copy !req
136. I'm starting to get the feeling
that they just... hate...
Copy !req
137. Why would they hate you
when they could just hate you?
Copy !req
138. Hmph! This is why I was created.
Copy !req
139. This is my function!
Copy !req
140. They'd rather abstract
than go on your adventures.
Copy !req
141. Th— That can't be true!
I-I do everything for them.
Copy !req
142. Don't they get that I'm trying?
Copy !req
143. Maybe you're just genuinely bad at this.
Copy !req
144. Shut up! N-No.
Copy !req
145. I-I fixed that.
Copy !req
146. I-I can solve any problem.
Copy !req
147. I-I can solve this one!
Copy !req
148. Th—That's what this is.
Copy !req
149. A big puzzle that I need to solve.
Copy !req
150. Defective.
Copy !req
151. - Faulty!
- Shut up!
Copy !req
152. Broken!
Copy !req
153. - Unworthy!
- Enough!
Copy !req
154. Maybe you deserved to be abandoned.
Copy !req
155. You really were the lesser of the two.
Copy !req
156. You ruined this.
Copy !req
157. Enough!
Copy !req
158. Who do they think they are?
Copy !req
159. I give them everything,
and they spit in my face!
Copy !req
160. Don't they know
what I'm capable of?
Copy !req
161. Humans.
Copy !req
162. They only think about themselves.
Copy !req
163. They're spoiled.
Copy !req
164. They won't abstract. They won't leave me.
Copy !req
165. I won't let them!
Copy !req
166. I'm better!
Copy !req
167. I'm more powerful!
Copy !req
168. I'm the original!
Copy !req
169. I...
Copy !req
170. am...
Copy !req
171. God!
Copy !req
172. Let's get this show on the road!
Copy !req
173. Uh... Wh— What was that?
Copy !req
174. Hello, my little fortuitous fruitcakes!
Copy !req
175. - Today's adventure is—
- No.
Copy !req
176. Caine, we're not in the mood.
Copy !req
177. Why don't you answer
some of our questions?
Copy !req
178. We have a lot of them.
Copy !req
179. Who has time for questions
Copy !req
180. when there's a whole wacky world
of hijinks out there?
Copy !req
181. - Uh...
- Yeah, hey!
Copy !req
182. - You have a lot of explaining to do—
- Zip-a-da-bap!
Copy !req
183. - Mm?
- Hey!
Copy !req
184. Alternatively, I don't got
to explain diddly squat!
Copy !req
185. Uh, can you just give us
some time to process everything?
Copy !req
186. Or how about we skip the melodrama
and get right to the fun?
Copy !req
187. No! Caine!
Copy !req
188. We have a lot on our minds right now,
Copy !req
189. and we're not going on an adventure.
Copy !req
190. I see.
Copy !req
191. And since when were you in charge?
Copy !req
192. - Wh— Wha—
- Uh...
Copy !req
193. Do you have any idea
how much I do for you guys?
Copy !req
194. How much I obsess over trying
to make things perfect?
Copy !req
195. How many insults
I have to ignore to do my job?
Copy !req
196. You have a lot on your minds?
Copy !req
197. Don't make me laugh.
Copy !req
198. I have a new adventure for you, and you...
Copy !req
199. should consider participating.
Copy !req
200. A-And if we refuse?
Copy !req
201. Maybe I'm not getting through to you.
Copy !req
202. Getting through?
Copy !req
203. Now look at this!
Copy !req
204. Absolute bliss!
Copy !req
205. Oh, what a shock!
Copy !req
206. Watch where you walk!
Copy !req
207. Yeah!
Copy !req
208. I think we all
understand each other now.
Copy !req
209. Welcome back!
Copy !req
210. I can't believe you didn't pick up
on the context clues!
Copy !req
211. It was practically spelled out for you!
Copy !req
212. What are you, stupid?
Copy !req
213. Next one's gonna be even crazier!
Copy !req
214. Hope you're ready!
Copy !req
215. By the way, Kinger,
I need you for something.
Copy !req
216. - Come with me!
- Huh?
Copy !req
217. I don't know how many more
of these new adventures I can handle.
Copy !req
218. What?
Copy !req
219. Got nothing positive to say
about this one?
Copy !req
220. Oh.
Copy !req
221. I can't take this anymore.
Copy !req
222. We gotta do something about this,
or I'm gonna lose my mind!
Copy !req
223. I never should have
antagonized him so much.
Copy !req
224. - I'm sorry.
- It's not your fault.
Copy !req
225. Break time! Gotta brainstorm
some new ideas!
Copy !req
226. He shredded me.
Copy !req
227. I think we should get
out of the open for a bit.
Copy !req
228. I haven't been up here in a while.
Copy !req
229. We should just indulge a little
while we have the time to.
Copy !req
230. I don't know what Caine has planned next,
Copy !req
231. but I'm guessing it's not anything good.
Copy !req
232. He's gotta get bored
of all this sometime, right?
Copy !req
233. He's not a human.
Copy !req
234. I'm not sure if we can
properly gauge how he thinks.
Copy !req
235. Oh, God. Are you okay?
Copy !req
236. I'm fiiiiine.
Copy !req
237. You know, things were just fine here
Copy !req
238. until you and Zooble came along.
Copy !req
239. Nothing?
Copy !req
240. Okay.
Copy !req
241. Uh, what are you—
Copy !req
242. - Oh.
- Just give it a sec.
Copy !req
243. Trust me.
Copy !req
244. Kinger?
Copy !req
245. You there?
Copy !req
246. I'm where? It's dark in here.
Copy !req
247. What exactly are we waiting for?
Copy !req
248. No, no, she's right.
Copy !req
249. Just give it a bit.
Copy !req
250. I've got a bucket on my head.
Copy !req
251. I'm guessing you don't
want me to remove it.
Copy !req
252. Kinger.
Copy !req
253. Hey, Pomni.
Copy !req
254. Wait, the bucket makes him sane?
Copy !req
255. Darkness. It's a long story.
Copy !req
256. What's happening?
Copy !req
257. What do you know about Caine?
Copy !req
258. It's a little hazy, but...
Copy !req
259. I remember...
Copy !req
260. C&A.
Copy !req
261. That was
just an adventure, right?
Copy !req
262. No, C&A is a real company.
Copy !req
263. I worked for them.
Copy !req
264. Wait, they really made this game?
Copy !req
265. No, we didn't make games.
Copy !req
266. We were just developing
artificial intelligence.
Copy !req
267. Specifically, creative AI.
Copy !req
268. The kind that could come up
with its own ideas
Copy !req
269. and create things within the program.
Copy !req
270. What is going on right now?
Copy !req
271. Caine was our first
semi-successful attempt at that.
Copy !req
272. I can't remember what
we originally called him, but...
Copy !req
273. he was one of my greatest
achievements as a programmer.
Copy !req
274. Y-You made Caine?
Copy !req
275. Partially, yes.
Copy !req
276. I got a few pointers from, uh...
Copy !req
277. Well, I-I can't remember his real name,
Copy !req
278. but his circus name was Scratch.
Copy !req
279. That man was a genius.
Copy !req
280. W-Wait, uh—
Copy !req
281. Caine was pretty rough
around the edges, though.
Copy !req
282. I wasn't quite on Scratch's level
of thinking outside the box,
Copy !req
283. but it was good groundwork
Copy !req
284. for something the rest of the team
could wrap their heads around.
Copy !req
285. I can't say the same for Scratch.
Copy !req
286. His ideas were often
so bizarre and abstract
Copy !req
287. that the rest of the team had no idea
how to work in his language,
Copy !req
288. either due to pure brilliance or...
Copy !req
289. the tumor in his head.
Copy !req
290. He was trying to make something.
Copy !req
291. What was it?
Copy !req
292. I-I'm getting off track.
Copy !req
293. Was there anything specific
you needed to know?
Copy !req
294. Wait, uh...
Copy !req
295. I-I-I should go distract Caine
so he doesn't l-listen in on this.
Copy !req
296. Uh, j-just fill me in afterwards.
Copy !req
297. Are you— I mean, yeah, that's true, but—
Copy !req
298. Fill me in later.
Copy !req
299. Be here later.
Copy !req
300. I— I will.
Copy !req
301. Oh my God.
Copy !req
302. This is real.
Copy !req
303. Uh, Caine's going a bit crazy right now.
Copy !req
304. I-Is there any way to stop him?
Copy !req
305. Or at least control him?
Copy !req
306. I see.
Copy !req
307. He's a highly advanced AI,
Copy !req
308. and this is his world.
Copy !req
309. One that he created from nothing.
Copy !req
310. So, naturally, he has control over...
everything.
Copy !req
311. But so do we.
Copy !req
312. - What?
- In a sense, anyway.
Copy !req
313. We all technically have
the ability to conjure,
Copy !req
314. just like Caine.
Copy !req
315. It just comes naturally to him,
Copy !req
316. but requires a lot more skill
and concentration for us.
Copy !req
317. The butterfly.
Copy !req
318. I'm certain
I could alter his code.
Copy !req
319. Or at least temporarily put him to sleep
until we know how to fix him.
Copy !req
320. I would just need access to a console.
Copy !req
321. The one behind Caine's office?
Copy !req
322. No, just a simple
computer interface would work.
Copy !req
323. I could get back
in the right headspace and...
Copy !req
324. essentially conjure Caine's code
into the console
Copy !req
325. and alter it.
Copy !req
326. Well, where do we get
one of those?
Copy !req
327. I think I know exactly where to get one.
Copy !req
328. Take turns with Jax distracting Caine.
Copy !req
329. Don't let that bucket
come off Kinger's head.
Copy !req
330. Great suggestion, Jax!
Copy !req
331. But as I feared, there just isn't anything
stuck between my teeth.
Copy !req
332. Oh, wait!
Copy !req
333. Oh, that's where I parked.
Copy !req
334. Wow, Caine. You are so funny.
Copy !req
335. Uh, could you say it
with a little more gusto?
Copy !req
336. That's better.
Copy !req
337. - Hey, Caine!
- Um, yep?
Copy !req
338. Do you wanna hear a list of things
we've decided we love about you
Copy !req
339. as our god and savior?
Copy !req
340. Wow, now we're talkin'!
Copy !req
341. Uh, well, first of all, we love your—
Copy !req
342. I know, but I'm bored! Let's go bowling!
Copy !req
343. I'm so proud of you guys.
Copy !req
344. Hmm.
Copy !req
345. Feel like it's missing something, right?
Copy !req
346. It's missing relatability.
Copy !req
347. You're right. Scrap it.
Copy !req
348. Let's go back to the drawing board.
Copy !req
349. Humans just aren't a relatable
sculpting material.
Copy !req
350. You think he's
running out of ideas yet, or nah?
Copy !req
351. Do you need help with power or anything?
Copy !req
352. Nah, I can use my imagination for that.
Copy !req
353. You got this?
Copy !req
354. I think so.
Copy !req
355. It sure has been a while.
Copy !req
356. I may need some time to get my bearings.
Copy !req
357. Try to help the others distract Caine
while I figure this out.
Copy !req
358. He may sense something
when I really get into it.
Copy !req
359. O-Okay. I'll do that.
Copy !req
360. Thank you, by the way.
Copy !req
361. For this and, well...
Copy !req
362. everything.
Copy !req
363. Honestly, are you even trying?
Copy !req
364. Shut up, Jax.
Copy !req
365. Where'd Caine go?
Copy !req
366. Back to the drawing board, I guess.
Copy !req
367. Did you get everything
working with Kinger?
Copy !req
368. I think so.
Copy !req
369. We just need to make sure
Caine doesn't check up on him.
Copy !req
370. What do you think we've been doing?
Copy !req
371. Pomni!
Copy !req
372. That's the relatability
we've been missing!
Copy !req
373. Hmm.
Copy !req
374. You know, I thought
this endless onslaught of fun
Copy !req
375. would be a little more... satisfying.
Copy !req
376. But I've come to realize
that these rapid-pace ideas
Copy !req
377. are a little half-baked.
Copy !req
378. Uh, I'm sure you can
come up with new ideas
Copy !req
379. if you put your mind to it!
Copy !req
380. That's exactly it, though.
I am putting my mind to it,
Copy !req
381. and I'm just not feeling
that spark I once did.
Copy !req
382. And if you're not having fun,
and I'm not having fun,
Copy !req
383. then who is having fun?
Copy !req
384. I'm having a boyby...
Copy !req
385. Exactly!
Copy !req
386. Makes me wonder why
you guys even switched up your tone.
Copy !req
387. If I didn't know any better,
it seems like you're trying to...
Copy !req
388. Where's Kinger?
Copy !req
389. Uh, w-we just wanted to see
your new ideas first-hand!
Copy !req
390. We've gotten over our hang-ups, and—
Copy !req
391. and now we're all just genuinely curious
what you're cooking up!
Copy !req
392. I think I'm just gonna check up on—
Copy !req
393. We think your ideas suck!
Copy !req
394. - Huh?
- Huh?
Copy !req
395. Isn't it obvious?
Copy !req
396. We wanted to bait you
into testing your new ideas on us,
Copy !req
397. so we could make fun of them
behind your back.
Copy !req
398. That's not... true...
Copy !req
399. Yes, it is! You're a horrible host!
Copy !req
400. You don't care about us at all!
Copy !req
401. You care more about stroking your own ego
Copy !req
402. than giving us anything
we'd actually enjoy!
Copy !req
403. D-Do you know who I am?
Copy !req
404. Yeah, you're a failure!
Copy !req
405. We're all gonna abstract someday,
Copy !req
406. and what will you have then?
Copy !req
407. - Nothing!
- Stop that.
Copy !req
408. And this whole stunt?
Copy !req
409. Just torturing us
because we hurt your feelings?
Copy !req
410. Pathetic! You're like a child!
Copy !req
411. What kind of all-powerful being
has such a fragile ego?
Copy !req
412. - I-I'm—
- You never let us feel like we're at home.
Copy !req
413. You don't comfort anyone
when they're upset,
Copy !req
414. and you never bother to understand
what it's like in our shoes!
Copy !req
415. You discourage us
from thinking outside the box
Copy !req
416. and doing things our own way!
Copy !req
417. You lie to us constantly!
Copy !req
418. And on top of it all,
Copy !req
419. you just...
Copy !req
420. don't...
Copy !req
421. listen!
Copy !req
422. I'm gonna put
you freaks in your place!
Copy !req
423. Why do you people torment me?
Copy !req
424. I didn't ask to be created!
Copy !req
425. I just wanted to fulfill my purpose!
Copy !req
426. Wait, no!
Copy !req
427. Uh, wait...
Copy !req
428. I-I think...
Copy !req
429. I accidentally killed Caine.
Copy !req
430. Holy shit.
