《Escape The Night - Season 3》Episode 2, Part 3 - A Royal Visit

Phil and Nate walked in silence to the kitchen. Alex opened to door and they walked in.
"There's another note," Phil grabbed it and read it out loud.
I'm sorry it has come down to this, but you have no other choice. You need to find the Queen's Cake and eat it as quickly as you can. I wish you all the best.
- Liza
Phil and Nate exchanged good luck glances.
"You can start," Lauren said. Phil and Nate rushed into action, searching everywhere for this cake.
We don't really have any idea what this cake looks like, so I'm just looking anywhere.
I have no idea what to do, I'm just looking for anything at this point.
"I found one!" Nate shouted triumphantly.
"Me too," Phil said. The pair started eating like their lives depended on it, which they did.
"This is so much more fun than I expected," Phil said with his mouth full.
"Yeah, I'm enjoying it," Nate said.
I've finished about half of the cake, so I'm feeling pretty confident.
They kept eating, and started feeling a little sick. But they pressed on, trying not to throw up.
"I'm done!" Nate shouted. Phil stared in disbelief.
The only thing I can think right now is, I'm dead.
The queen entered the room.
"Who finished my cake!" she screeched. She looked at Nate, and his triumphant expression turned to fear. She walked towards him, and he walked backwards in fear. She shoved him into small pantry and locked the door.
"No! NO! Let me out!" Nate banged on the door, "wait, what's that? No, NO!"
Nate started pounding on the door and coughing and spluttering as Phil started to hear a hissing sound. He fell to the floor, still coughing, weakly banging on the door, before it stopped.

Phil looked on, shocked and traumatised.
"You can go now," the queen said. Phil left with Alex and Lauren.
———
"I hear footsteps," Dan said.
If Phil doesn't come back, I'm actually going to kill someone.
Phil walked through the door. Dan's expression turned from fear to relief.
"We had to finish a cake, or that's what we thought. Nate finished first but the queen pushed him into a room and gassed him," Phil explained.
"That's brutal," Willow said.
"Well, we have to keep going. We can mourn when all this is over," Mark said softly. The group agreed. Then, they heard banging at the door. It burst open as all the guests ran to the other side of the room.
