Stapy: Hey, Foldy! What's popping?
Foldy: What's popping?
Stapy: It's a greeting. Y'know... to greet people?
Foldy: Whatever, I'm not in a good mood today. Just... go toss dirt with Marker or something.
Marker: I- I'm uh... right here...
Stapy: Look, are you mad about Tennis Ball or something?
Foldy: I just don't know how to talk to him...
Marker: It should be as simple as a greeting... And if you're still uncomfortable, you should try to talk to him about what made you uncomfy.
Stapy: Hey, that's a good idea- ... When did you become a voice of reason?
Marker: Just for your information, I have a degree in psychology.
*They walk up to Tennis Ball* Foldy: Hey, Tennis Ball... I kind of feel uncomfortable about what you said about being on the "wrong" team...
Tennis Ball: Oh, Foldy... I didn't mean it like that. I just meant it as how I wasn't on my "original" team.
Foldy: So wait... you like being on this team?
Tennis Ball: Yeah! I kind of like it better here than it was on the other team. Golf Ball is just too bossy for me to like being on her team.
Marker: That settles that.
*TV and Robot Flower are watching from a bush* Robot Flower: Woah, what!?
TV: What.
Robot Flower: Did you hear Tennis Ball? He just said he didn't like this team!
TV: ...So?
Robot Flower: Clip what he said!
TV: K. *TV clips what Tennis Ball said*
Robot Flower: Heheh... potential blackmail...
*Cake at Stake!*
Announcer: Hello, Death P.A.C.T... One of you will be eliminated today.
Remote: Wait... can you recover Tree?
*Tree gets recovered* Tree: woah, what happened? You guys look tense.
Remote: Just don't worry about it.
Black Hole: Yeah. Just get on with it...
Announcer: Okay. We got 11 votes. Today's prize is a mint cookie.
Pen: Oh, nice!
Announcer: Rocky got the least votes, with none to his name.
Rocky: Mhm! *Rocky gets the cookie*
Remote: Oh, nice to know you're safe, little one!
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky barfs on the cookie*
Announcer: Next safe are Pen and Tree, with just one vote each.
Pen: Aw, yeah. I knew this would happen. *Pen gets a cookie*
Tree: Wait, we lost...? What even happened? *Tree gets hit in the face with a cookie*
Announcer: Remote is the next safe, with 2 votes.
Remote: Oh, finally, I can calm down with this refreshing mint cookie-
*Rocky eats the cookie* Rocky: Bleh!
Remote: Forget it then.
Announcer: Now it's down to our bottom two. Black Hole and Liy.
Black Hole: I'm in the bottom two... Again.
Liy: I suppose I should've seen this coming...
Announcer: The last one safe is...
Liy: Is...?
Announcer: Black Hole.
Black Hole: Wow. *The cookie flies right into Black Hole*
*Liy has a regretful face* Liy: I'm sorry for yesterday, team. I was too worried about justifying myself, I didn't realize how it hurt you all.

Pen: Liy, I don't take it too personal. I mean, it's not really worth fighting for.
Remote: I think you should give an apology to one more person...
Liy: Yeah. I'm sorry Rocky. I didn't mean to make you feel unsafe.
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky has a happy face, making Liy realize he had forgiven her*
Liy: Peace, everyone. *Liy disappears*
Tree: Well... now that everything's settled, we should get heading back.
Remote: I agree. And I'll take Ro- *Remote falls to the floor*
Bottle: And Remote is dead!
Bomby: Woah, what even happened?
Announcer: All of the electricity in the world is gone.
EVERYONE: WHAT!?
Announcer: Anything that runs on batteries is shut off.
Pen: Woah, woah. How are you still running then?
Announcer: I am not a robot. My batteries are just my lungs.
Match: Wait, but then what happened when we put those inside Fanny...!?
Announcer: Not important. I know who did this injustice, however.
Tree: Forget about that, we need to get Remote back!
Rocky: Mhm!
Announcer: Fine. You must go inside this depository, and receive a wire to give to me. Once I have seven wires, I will repair the electricity. The last team to give me a wire, loses. Go.
*The Losers POV* Pin: Hey, you guys go get a wire. We're going to check on Eugene.
Coiny: Yeah!
Needle: Oh, okay. (Of course they left me with these two...)
Clock: Hey Needle, what's up?
Needle: Not much, actually. Just trying to do the challenge.
Clock: Oh, okay. I get that. Just trying to check on a team mate.
Needle: FYI, repeating what I say doesn't make you sound cool...
*Teardrop runs off*
Needle: Oh, yay.
*Teardrop comes back, with wire in hand*
Clock: Wow, that took no time at all!
*The Losers- Pin and Coiny POV* Pin: Eugene, are you okay?
*The bug sits in his bed, barely moving*
Coiny: I'm sorry if we've been bad owners... We just wanted to give you the best life possible.
Pin: Sorry for giving you too much attention, and if that's been making you sad...
*Pin holds her hands out*
*Eugene slowly crawls out and gets on Pin's hand*
Coiny: Aw...
*Needle, Clock, and TD arrive back* Needle: We got the wire!
Pin: Sweet.
Announcer: The Losers are first safe!
Clock: And you better give us a prize this time.
Announcer: Noted.
*BEEP POV* Leafy: Hey, guys.
Nickel: What is it?
Leafy: I think I found a wire.
Woody: Woo!
Cloudy: Yeah, we can return this to the announcer and win!
Nickel: Let's go then...
*BEEP heads back to the announcer*
Leafy: Here's your wire, Announcer!
Announcer: ...
Balloony: Uh, announcer?
Announcer: This is a green twizzler, not a wire.
Leafy: Oh.
Balloony: Leafy, I can not believe you. First, you have the audacity to complain, now, you try to make us lose?!

Leafy: What- but I didn't-
Balloony: Eh, whatever.
Woody: Wuh about this?
Cloudy: What is it, Woody?
*Announcer grabs the wire from Woody* Announcer: Woody, this is a wire. So your team is safe at second.
Nickel: Oh, hey. We actually won.
*Iance POV* Flower: There should be spare wires in this aisle.
Lightning: And what makes you think that?!
Flower: Other electric materials are in this aisle. Stop acting so weird and just realize I'm making an educated guess.
Lightning: But YOU doing that is so weird! Does anyone else get me?!
Bubble: You should calm down.
Spongy: Yeah, I'm sleepy. Let me sleep.
Flower: Whatever, I'll look by myself.
Lightning: No, I'm going to to follow you.
Flower: If you're going to follow me, can you at least make yourself useful?
Lightning: Whatever.
Bubble: Wow, they seem angry today.
Ruby: They are always angry anymore.
Bubble: You're telling me.
Spongy: I wish not to get involved with their childish affairs.
Ruby: Hey, where's Match?
Bubble: She went outside. Something about too little air.
Ruby: Hm.
Flower: I got the wire, it really didn't take long.
LIghtning: Ugh! Whatever.
*Iance heads to the Announcer*
Bubble: Here you go!
Announcer: Good job, Iance. You get 3rd.
Ruby: Like, there you are.
Match: Hey, Ruby! Sorry I couldn't be there. I was on my break time.
Ruby: Don't stress about it.
Match: Okay!
*A Better Name Than That* Blocky: Carrying TV is tiring. Isn't there any other option?
Golf Ball: Well, lucky for you, I have my emergency data!
Blocky: Emergency data?
Golf Ball: It can send electricity to TV and Robot Flower, recharging them in no time!
Basketball: Alright then. Do it.
Golf Ball: Okay! *Golf Ball presses a button on her phone*
TV: Woah, what happened?
Robot Flower: Must've been a power outage...
Basketball: Hey, do you guys see any wires anywhere?
Robot Flower: Well uh... *Robot Flower reaches into one of her compartments* Here's a wire.
Basketball: Oh.. okay? I don't know if that's safe, though.
Robot Flower: Eh, it'll be fine.
Blocky: Whatever, let's just go.
Golf Ball: Agreed.
*A Better Name Than That arrives outside* TV: What's the challenge again?
Basketball: Eh, we already won it, so no need to tell you.
Blocky: Here's the wire.
Announcer: A Better Name Than That, you are the 4th team to finish.
*Free Food POV* Eraser: Okay, I got a wire, but it looks... ripped?
Foldy: Oh shoot, I don't know if they'll accept that...
Tennis Ball: I guess we have to cover it up.
Eraser: What do you mean?
Tennis Ball: If we just staple it together, no one will notice.
Stapy: Huh, you're right!
*One stapling later*
Stapy: Here's your wire, speaker box!
Announcer: It looks bad.
Marker: But it is totally legit, I promise!
Announcer: Whatever. You win.
Eraser: Nice.
*Death P.A.C.T. comes running up* Black Hole: Oh, uh... yeah. We got one too.
Tree: So we're safe too?
Announcer: Correct.
Pen: Then why isn't Remote coming back?!
Remote: Mhm!
Announcer: We need one more wire for that.
Rocky: Hmph!
Announcer: Speaking of, now it's down to just Team Ice Cube and Bleh!
*Bleh POV* Gaty: Why are we spying on them, Saw?!
Saw: Simple; it's our best chance of winning.
Taco: This is useless! We could've just found a wire and be safe by now!
Saw: Shush. They'll hear us.
Taco: Ugh...
Gaty: Whatever. Take the benefit of the doubt. At least if we lose *whispering* we all know who's getting out.
Taco: Lollipop?
Gaty: What? No.
Lollipop: What about me?
Gaty: Nothing.
Puffball: Guys, I think they found one. This is our chance!
*Team Ice Cube POV* Donut: We found one!
Gelatin: And Bleh isn't in sight! We've won this!
Donut: Yeah...
Barf Bag: Now, let's get out!
Gelatin: Woah, wait. Can I see the wire?
Donut: Uhh... no.
Gelatin: But... why not? It's not like I'm harming anyone doing it.
Donut: Did you hear me? I said... no.
Bomby: But why not? He asked politely.
Donut: Listen here. When I say no, I MEAN NO.
Bomby: I just don't get why you have to be a jerk all of the time.
Donut: Oh, I'm a jerk!? You two are the one's wasting everyone's time here, and I'M THE JERK!?
Gelatin: Why do you just... never think about other people?
Donut: I'm tired of how disrespectful you two are!
Bracelety: Uh... guys...
Bottle: I think I see someone over there...
Bracelety: Me too.
Bottle: Uh oh!
Saw: They see us! Puffball, now!
Barf Bag: Huh?
Puffball: Gotcha! *Puffball snatches the wire out of Donut's hands* Haha!
Donut: HUH!? NO!
Gaty: Oh yikes, we better go!
Lollipop: How pitiful it must be being them... haha!
Bottle: We tried to tell you...
Donut: I CANNOT HANDLE THIS ANYMORE! UGH!
Bracelety: D- ...
Barf Bag: Bracelety... It's better if you don't talk to him right now...
Bracelety: *Sigh* You're right.
Bomby: And I'm the one with a fuse, huh.
*BLEH POV* Taco: Here you go!
Announcer: And BLEH is the last team safe. Good job.
Lollipop: We did it!
Puffball: Saw, your plans are always crazy, and sometimes illegal, but it's not hard to say you know what you're doing.
Saw: Heck yeah I do!
Announcer: So that means Team Ice Cube loses, for the first time in 15 episodes.
Gaty: Has it really been that long?
VOTE ONE MEMBER OF TEAM ICE CUBE TO BE ELIMINATED NEXT EPISODE. THE PERSON WITH THE MOST VOTES WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM BFB VOTING THINGY.
VOTING ENDS WHEN TEAM ICE CUBE GETS OUT OF THE WAREHOUSE...
*Pin tucks in Eugene* Pin: Good night, Eugene!
*Eugene nods, then falls asleep*
Coiny: What a charmer, isn't he?
