*Basketball and Robot Flower are seen walking towards the Announcer. They both are talking about what Snowball and Golf Ball did last challenge*
Basketball: I just don't get how they can fight so much, and show barely any remorse for it! Do you understand, Robot Flower?
Robot Flower: Yeah, I do. But it'll probably stop anyway, since Snowball is definitely getting out.
Basketball: What makes you think that?
Robot Flower: I mean, come on? He's like super mean! How could the voters vote anyone else?
Basketball: Yeah, that makes sense. Anyways, we should probably recover TV now.
Robot Flower: Announcer, Recover TV!
Announcer: Oh, hello. Sure. *Announcer makes TV pop out of nowhere*
TV: I'm alive! Thank you all for bringing me back!
Basketball: Oh, uh... yeah.
Robot Flower: Yeah! We're great friends! *Robot Flower hugs TV*
Basketball: Uh... huh. Yeah. Okay, we should probably go to the elimination area now.
TV: Agreed.
Robot Flower: Then let's go- *A bouncy ball hits her reset button, causing her to fall into a puddle of water*
Robot Flower: JASKASKAJHSKAJJhaksjhkJAHSAKAJ *Robot Flower fries, to Basketball and TV's dismay*
Basketball: Wow.
*Gaty yells in the background* Gaty: SORRY, we were playing catch!
Puffball: Yeah! I threw too hard!
Basketball: Uh huh. Sure.
Gaty: Bye!
TV: Okay, then. We should recover her. Or not. Depends on what you want.
Basketball: Ughhhhh, of course we recover her. Let's just go, We have no time to-
Announcer: It's time for cake at stake.
*TV plays the cake at stake theme on his monitor*
Announcer: Hello, A Better Name than That. You guys lost last time, so one of you will leave the team. Our prize for today is a cookie cake slice.
Blocky: Oh, I love cookie cake. That'll cheer me up.
Announcer: Wait, where's Robot Flower?
TV: Didn't you see? Robot Flower died, because of *angrily* Puffball.
Announcer: Oh. *Announcer makes Robot Flower pop up*
Robot Flower: Huh?
Golf Ball: ANYWAYS?
Announcer: Oh, yeah. We got 20 votes.
Golf Ball: Woah, 20?
Snowball: That's a lot.
TV: 20 votes on the 20th episode. How weird is that?
Snowball: Yeah.
Announcer: The first person safe is Blocky, with just 1 vote.
Blocky: Wow. Safe first. I didn't expect that. *Grabs cookie cake* This is gonna be great!
Announcer: The next one safe is TV and Robot Flower, with 2 votes a piece.
TV: Wow. Surprising. I would think I would get more votes.
Robot Flower: Yeah! Both of the mechanical minds are safe.
Announcer: Me too. Anyways, now we're down to the bottom 3. Basketball, Golf Ball, and Snowball.
Basketball: Oh, darn. I'm in the bottom 3?
Golf Ball: I've calculated, and now I have a 33.33% chance of leaving the game forever!!!
Announcer: Lucky for you, you're safe, with 4 votes. Here's your cake.
Golf Ball: Oh, phew. This team needs me.
Basketball: But that means...
*Snowball sighs*
Announcer: The bottom two are Basketball and Snowball.
Snowball: Maybe I had this coming...
Basketball: But- why me?
Announcer: Anything you two want to say before I reveal the votes...?
Snowball: I guess not...
Basketball: Well, I'm mad with how many people voted me! I mean, what did I do?
TV: Exactly. Nothing.
Basketball: You shut it!-
Announcer: Alright. It's time for the results.
Snowball: Okay...
Announcer: The last one safe is... Basketball. She got 5 votes, while Snowball got 6. Goodbye, SB.
Snowball: Aw, flake. I guess I should've expected this... *Snowball looks at Golf Ball.*
Snowball: I should have gotten over my grudge I had on you, Golf Ball.
*Golf Ball looks at Snowball understandingly*

Snowball: And, you, Blocky. I'm sorry that I disappointed you. I should have controlled my anger.
Announcer: Is that all?
Snowball: Yep. *Snowball disappears*
Basketball: What a relief. He's finally gone.
Robot Flower: Yeah.
Blocky: So, uh, Golf Ball. Do you feel, uh, relieved now?
Golf Ball: No, I just feel more stressed out, actually.
TV: In that case, why don't I be the team leader?
Golf Ball: Huh?
TV: If I'm the team leader, you won't have to worry, and I can do all the work!
Golf Ball: Wouldn't this be... not so good?
TV: Do you think I would cause any problems on this team?
Golf Ball: Well, no, but-
TV: Then it's solved! I'm team leader!
Basketball: Great.
*Meanwhile, over with Free Food* Tennis Ball: Hey, Eraser.
Eraser: Oh, huh? Yeah, what is it?
Tennis Ball: Did you ever get a chance to read it?
Eraser: Oh, no, I don't think I have, actually.
Marker: Ooh! Are you going to read that note? I've been craving to see what's inside!
Tennis Ball: Craving is a bit of a strong word...
Marker: Yeah, but I don't care! Open it!
Eraser: Okay! Okay! I will, I will. *Eraser opens the note from his nonexistent pocket*
Marker: What does it say?
Eraser: It says... "Announcer's Favorite Items: Item #1: B-
*Announcer pops up from nowhere* Announcer: Hello, contestants. Are you guys ready for your 20th challenge?
Tennis Ball: Hold on... 20th? It's been that long already?
Stapy: Appears so.
*Needle notices something about the Announcer's challenge system* Needle: Hold on, Announcer. Every challenge that is a multiple of five is normally a special one.
Coiny: Special one?
Pin: What are you on about, Needle...?
Needle: Remember? In episode 5, the drawing challenge? Episode 10, the mountain climb? Episode 15, the balloon one? There's gotta be a big challenge this time!
Coiny: Good point, Needle.
Pin: Well, Announcer. Is it true?
Eggy: We're dying to know!
Announcer: Correct. This challenge is a big one. Literally. You guys will be in a ... big mall.
Liy: A mall? Why would we be in a mall?
Tree: I agree with Liy. It's fun to go to a mall, but... what ARE we doing there?
Rocky: BLEH!
Announcer: You guys will be trying to get me an item. You must guess what my favorite thing would be, based on our past 20 episodes we've been together.
Eraser: So that's what the paper was for!
Foldy: Hey, Eraser. Best not to say that when everyone can hear you!
Stapy: Yeah!
Announcer: You will all get 20 dollars to spend in the mall. Try to use the best of the money, and don't lose it!
Donut: Twenty dollars?
Bomby: This is cheap!
Barf Bag: What would you even buy with that at the mall? A bottle of water?
Bottle: Yeah! A bottle of water!
Announcer: Shush, sheesh. You will have 3 whole hours to give me an item, because I need some time to myself. Everyone will be teleported back at the end of the 3 hours. If you finish earlier than that, you may find me at the exit. Now, contestants, are you ready?
*Everyone* Yeah!!!
Announcer: Go. *Everyone is teleported to the mall, with everyone immediately splitting up in different directions*
*Death P.A.C.T. POV* Pen: Okay, time to go to the mall!!
Remote: I'm sure this will be a very fun experience. But, where do we go?
Tree: Let's find out...! *Tree extends his arm to grab a mall map*
Pen: Ooh, a map!
Remote: What does it say?
Tree: It's a map, Remote. We're currently in the middle.

Black Hole: Okay, but... where should we go?
Tree: Well, if we look to our right, the uh, fashion stores should be there.
Pen: I guess we could rummage up something from there...
Black Hole: Are you sure? We only have 20 dollars.
Liy: I mean, we could find something the Announcer likes.
Remote: True statement.
Liy: Then let's go on an adventure! *Liy and the rest of Death P.A.C.T. start walking*
Tree: Alright, this sounds fun. But, I feel like we're forgetting something...
Remote: I'm sure that if you forgot it, then it probably was not important.
Tree: I guess that makes sense. Onward, then.
Rocky: Hm? *Death P.A.C.T, however, forgot to bring Rocky along*
Rocky: Aw...
*BEEP POV* Leafy: Okay guys, what's up?
Balloony: Not much.
Cloudy: Not much, either. I've just been thinking about... things.
Nickel: I haven't had much on my mind. I'm just chugging along, right Woody?
Woody: Yeah!
Cloudy: Easy for you to say. I have a lot to think about.
Balloony: Wait, wait. Guys.
Nickel: Huh? What is it, Balloony?
Leafy: What's the big deal?
Woody: Weh?
Balloony: Look, it's Rocky! *Balloony points to a disappointed Rocky, sitting alone.*
Leafy: Aw, man. Why is he alone?
Cloudy: Did his team... forget him?
Woody: Why would you do that? That's wrong.
Balloony: Should we take him? It'll be just like having him on our team.
Nickel: Isn't that, like, wrong?
Balloony: But think about this, Nickel. If we take Rocky in, we'll all be happy. Rocky will be happy to be with us, and we'll be happy to see little one!
Nickel: Oh, yeah! But what about his other team?
Woody: They clearly didn't care about him enough!
Leafy: Alright. It's settled then. Cloudy, go get Rocky!
Cloudy: Me? Oh, alright. *Cloudy flies over to Rocky* Hey, Rocky! Your team forgot about you, huh...
Rocky: Mhm...
Cloudy: Well... why don't you come with us? It'll be just like the old days!
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky says yes*
Cloudy: Okay then, let's go! *Rocky gets on Cloudy, and they start flying back to the rest of BEEP*
Rocky: Yay!
*Iance POV* Ruby: WOW! This mall is so large!
Bubble: I know, right!
Spongy: This would be great to play a game in!
Bubble: Oh my goish! Spongy, you are a genius! We can play so moiny games today!
Spongy: Yeah!
Match: Yeah, you guys can go have fun with that, me and the rest of the team are actually going to search for something to get.
Lightning: Yeah! We'll do this on our own, you three have fun.
*Flower writes on her notepad* Flower: So Bubble, Ruby, and Spongy left, right?
Lightning: Yeah...
Flower: Okay, so it's just me, you, Fanny, and Match. Wait, Match, why aren't you with the rest of your alliance?
Match: Eh. I kinda want to get this challenge done. Shopping is fun!
Fanny: I want to get this challenge done, too! And I hate shopping!
Lightning: Okay, so, where should we go?
Flower: We just passed a pawn shop...
Lightning: Why would there be a pawn shop in this mall...?
Fanny: I hate pawn shops!
Flower: Me too, Fanny. I hate them too.
Match: Well, I'm sure we can, like, find something soon! Flower, whenever we find a store that, like, would be fine for you, just tell us!
*Flower is glued to her notepad* Flower: Mhm, yeah.
Match: Uhhhh... yeah. Glad to know you, like, understand.
*Meanwhile, with Ruby, Bubble, and Spongy*
Bubble: I know! Let's play hide and seek!
Ruby: Ooh, that sounds fun!
Bubble: I'll hide, while you and Spongy seek!
Spongy: No problem with that. I'm not much of a hider anyways.
Ruby: Alright, see you soon Bubb- Woah, she left already?
Spongy: Yep! We better get seeking!
*The Losers POV* Coiny: Okay, there's tons of stores we can go to!
Needle: Like... what?
Coiny: There's the clothing store, and the department store, and-
Clock: Don't forget the food store!
Pin: Announcer can't eat though, right?
Clock: Wait, he can't?
Pin: I don't think so?
Coiny: That's weird. I thought he could.
Needle: Guys! Stop getting sidetracked. Where do we go???
*Teardrop walks up and points to a fashion stand*
Eggy: Teardrop, I don't think the announcer would like a fashion salon.
*Teardrop shrugs and grabs a bottle of freshener*
Eggy: Teardrop, get rid of that! We're not going to use it.
*Teardrop gets mad, and proceeds to spray all the detergent on Eggy* before placing it back*
Eggy: OW! What was that for!?
*Teardrop runs off, with a menacing smile*
Eggy: Hey, you! Get back here!
Coiny: Oh, great. Guys, come on! We have to get TD!
Pin: Alright!
Needle: Yeah! Let's go!
*Team Ice Cube POV* Donut: Okay, what are you guys doing?
Gelatin: We're getting a shopping cart!
Bracelety: Yeah! You can't go shopping without a shopping cart!
Bottle: Can we have it... please?
Donut: Fine, fine. You can have it. Just try not to cause too much trouble.
Gelatin: Aw, yeah. Donut the homie.
Bomby: Hey, guys! They have a Walmart here!
Barf Bag: Oh, that's great! We could definitely find something the Announcer likes here.
Donut: Okay then, let's go!
Gelatin: Yeah! *Gelatin pushes the shopping cart with Bracelety and Bottle inside*
Bracelety: Wee!!!
*Team Ice Cube goes inside the Walmart*
Donut: These things always look way smaller than they actually are, y'know?
Barf Bag: Yeah. I wonder how they even can fit that much in a mall, anyways?
Bomby: GUYS! Where should we go first?
Barf Bag: Uh, hm... The clothing section?
Donut: Clothing section?
Barf Bag: Maybe we could find something that announcer would like to wear?
Bomby: Maybe.
Gelatin: Actually, I have a better idea! What if me, Bracelety and Bottle split up from you guys? Just to um, find more stuff?
Bracelety: Yeah!
Donut: Do I know if I can trust you with this?
Gelatin: When have you never not trusted me?
Donut: Multiple times.
Barf Bag: Donut, it's a Walmart. I'm sure we can trust them with this.
Bomby: Yeah!
Donut: Eh, sure.
Bottle: Yay!
*Bleh POV* Taco: What do you guys think the announcer would like?
Gaty: I'm not sure. I'm just not that much of a psycho-analyzer, you know?
Taco: I get that.
Lollipop: I would just have to guess he would like something fancy.
Saw: Fancy?
Lollipop: Yeah. Something that gleams? Like jewelry or accessories?
Saw: What would make you think that?
Lollipop: He uses a high budget. Wouldn't he want high budget items?
Saw: Hm. Makes sense.
Puffball: Lucky for you, I see a jewelry store right here.
Taco: It doesn't look like it's open.
Gaty: Yeah, no sign or anything. Just some note on this wall.
Puffball: What does it say?
Gaty: It just lists the times.
Saw: Is it open right now?
Gaty: Yeah. It is open right now. I'm pretty sure we could shop here.
Puffball: Something looks off about this place... but sure.
Lollipop: Eh, if the door's not locked... It's probably okay.
*Lollipop opens the door*
*ABNTT POV* Blocky: Ugh, TV. Where are you taking us?
TV: To treasure!
Robot Flower: I don't see how walking in random directions is treasure.
*TV suddenly swerves directions* TV: I'm a calculator, remember? I know exactly where we can find the best possible item for the announcer.
Blocky: That sounds like an excuse.
Basketball: Yeah. I'm just gonna leave in a bit if you aren't going to take us somewhere useful.
TV: Wait, don't leave! We're getting close!
Golf Ball: Close?
Robot Flower: This doesn't really seem like... "close".
Basketball: Wait, why are the lights getting dimmer?
Blocky: Is this... caution tape?
Basketball: TV, you aren't going to tell me that we have to walk through this, right?
TV: Do you want to win?
Golf Ball: I don't know. I've had enough happen in one day.
Blocky: Yeah. I don't know if I want to do this...
TV: *sigh* I guess I'll have to go alone... You guys really want to win sooooo bad, but you NEVER put in any effort.
Robot Flower: F-Fine! I'll go with you.
Basketball: Yeah, me too.
Blocky: Ugh, yeah. Sure. *Blocky rips the tape open*
Golf Ball: I guess I can't really say "no" anymore, right?
Basketball: Nope. Let's go.
TV: Onward! To treasure!
*Death PA.C.T. POV* Tree: Okay, we've arrived at the shops.
Black Hole: Which one do we go in first?
Tree: That's a hard question.
Remote: Let's go in the electronics store first!
Black Hole: Why? So you can just look at the batteries?
Remote: Yes. And the Announcer is a robot too, so it will work out perfectly...!
Liy: Wait a second, are we missing someone?
Pen: Huh? Missing someone?
Liy: Lemme count. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
*Death P.A.C.T. stops*
Pen: We forgot Rocky!!!
Tree: Oh, shoot! How could we have forgotten him!
Black Hole: Pen! Remote! You guys stay here, we're going to get Rocky!
Liy: Yeah! Keep yourselves out of trouble!
Pen: Wait, guys! You can't just... leave.
*Black Hole, Liy, and Pen run off to look for Rocky* Remote: Cheer up, Pen! We have a whole store to explore... just you and me! :D
Pen: Okay... yeah. I just feel a little scared when being forced to do big tasks, y'know?
Remote: I get that.
*Remote and Pen enter the electronics store*
*Free Food POV* Eraser: So the announcer likes bubble baths. How would I have ever guessed.
Tennis Ball: I mean, we could buy him shampoo?
Eraser: ...
Tennis Ball: Just a suggestion.
Foldy: Uh, um...
Stapy: What is it, Foldy?
Foldy: D-do you mind if we split apart?
Eraser: To like, look for stuff?
Foldy: Y-yeah! Me, Stapy and Marker will look on one side, while you and Tennis Ball do another side!
Tennis Ball: Good idea! We can split up!
Marker: Yeah!!! This will be so fun!!!
Foldy: Alright, we're uhh... gonna go now! Bye!
Stapy: Cya!
*Foldy, Stapy, and Marker leave. Eraser and Tennis Ball are confused, but continue on without much thought*
Eraser: What was that about?
Tennis Ball: No idea. Let's just keep going.
*BEEP POV* Leafy: So how does it feel to be back, Rocky?
Rocky: Bleh!
Woody: It's nice to be united again!
Balloony: We're sorry your old team treated you so poorly.
Rocky: Hm.
Cloudy: Rocky doesn't really seem bothered.
Balloony: Huh.
Woody: Don't weh need to shop? *Woody holds up his 20 dollar bill*
Balloony: Woody's right! Where do we go?
