OA51 S01 E04

Episode 4
Narrator: Gum Bally, Moustache and Pencil argued a lot. I mean, What's with Pencil? Is she really hiding something? Oh and they keep hearing scary noises... like they are not alone... Totally a horror trope and like, they should all be like. "I AM CALLIING "SCREAM on this scene..." But you know they don't seem all that bright. Moustache is trying to get with Pencil but she's totally cold-fishing him. So embarassing! Keep reading!

Moustache: Great. We lost Gum Bally and now we're back where we started. There's got to be an exit.

Pencil: I don't want to be here anymore.

Moustache: ORLY? Do you think I am in love with this place?

Pencil: I just don't wan't to be here..

Moustache: Look, Pencil, for all her bluster, Gum Bally's right about one thing.

Pencil: What's that?

Moustache: We don't know much about you.

Pencil: Not you, too?

Moustache: No, not like that! I am just saying that something is going on with you. I don't need to know what it is. But you need to know you've got friends who are here for you.

Pencil: Oh um, Thanks. I mean it.

Moustache:  You bet.

Pencil: (Hugs Moustache) I guess I am into you.. a little.

Moustache: (Hugs back)

 (Not too far away... but in some weird lab)

Book: Tsk tsk. Kids, I can't have you digging around in here you know! I'll keep monitoring you, but... Don't make me come find you.

(Back to the hall with Gum Bally, Button and Ribbon)

Ribbon: So we're agreed. We get more information. Then we make a plan.

Gum Bally: Anyone in his or her right mind, would be scrambling for a way out. But the thow of you are more interested in "gathering intel" than saving your skins. What gives?

Ribbon: We're in a secret lab or something. Are you telling me you're not curious?

Gum Bally: I am. But I'm also interested in living to see another day...

Ribbon: Noted. And we will. But for now, we explore.

Gum Bally: Looks like you've got a plan, Ribbon. That's more than I've got.

Button: She does, Gum Bally don't worry. We'll get you out and get what I came for.

Gum Bally: What you came for? :O

Button: Well, what I'm interested in finding out, I mean.

Gum Bally: Right...

Ribbon: There's a lab further down the hall. Through it, I think we can find a way out.

(They go in the lab)

Ribbon: This is the place. Fan out. Look at all these stuff?

Button: They were definetly conducting some kind of experiments here. Look, those cages are small.

Gum Bally: Yeah, like a pet-store.

Ribbon: Experimental lab and animals. This is so sad.

Gum Bally: I love animals! All soft and cuddly -- well, most of them.

Ribbon: If you love animals, how are you okay with this?

Gum Bally: We've got a bucnh of animal lover scientists! How sweet!

Button: I am thinking that's not what this is...

Gum Bally: What do you --? Oh. But

Ribbon: Wait for it...

Gum Bally: But, they coudln't just experiment on animals!

Ribbon: Hooray! Your IQ just raised 10 points to still well below average!

Gum Bally: I. Don't. Like. You.

Ribbon: I. Don't. Care. What I care about is making sure no more animals get tortured.

Button: Okay then, Let's look around. If we find animals, we'll rescue them!

Gum Bally: I feel like in a cartoon "Go, Diego, Go!". But I'm good with that. Most pets like me. I smell good.

Ribbon: You smell good?

Gum Bally: We all just fell down a dirty hole and trounced through a cave. You guys smell like dirt and soot. Me? I still smell like pears!

Ribbon: Are you real? (facepalm)

Gum Bally: No, Ribbon, I'm a figment of your imagination sent to torment you. Is it working?

Ribbon: -_-

Button: This place is abandoned. Hazardous chemicals just left in the open. I think they let the animals go.

Gum Bally: That's good at least. Anyone else hungry? I ask because that would explain where everyone is. It's dinner time!

Button: You're saying they're all on break?

Gum Bally: Yep!

Button: Do you believe in tooth fairy?

Gum Bally: Yep!

Ribbon: I'm not touching that! Gum Bally, you are the queen f the non sequitur. Let's focus on the animals. We're sure they go out?

Gum Bally: It looks that way to me.

Ribbon: But did they get all the way out?

Button: How can we tell?

Gum Bally: I'm telling you, they all got out -- all the way out.

Ribbon: What stellar wisdom do you have brought you to that conclusion?

Gum Bally: Easy, I haven't seen a single animal poop anywhere.

Ribbon: ... Okay, that's a really good call. Animal poop. Why didn't I think of that?

Gum Bally: This IS why you came here, isn't it? to save the animals...

Ribbon: I've been working with a group called "Fur First" for a couple years now. We rescue animals from places like these.

Gum Bally: So it was just your coincidence you came here, right?

Ribbon: I didn't know where that hole was, if that's what you mean.

Button: So you mean you brought us here under false pretense?

Ribbon: Look who's talking! (Angry face)

Button: ?

Gum Bally: Please, Butty, who do you think you're fooling?

Button: This isn't helping us at all! Ribbon, If it turns out you manipulated all of this...

Ribbon: Yeah, Button, I created a giant hole in the desert. -_-

Gum Bally: Ribbon, you manipulated all of us. Knowing or not, doesn't matter. And when we get out of here, I'll be turning you into the cops myself.

Ribbon: For what? for stopping illegal activity?

Button: She's got point, Gum Bally. Also, next one to call me Butty gets abandoned in this... abandoned... base.

Gum Bally: Look, I am not really sure who to trust. Pencil isn't telling the truth about everything either.

Button: It's okay, Gum Bally. Whatever our invidual reasons for being here we're all in this together now.

Gum Bally: Whatever's making that noise isn't stopping. We should keep moving.

Button: You have any other sights you want to see, Ribbon?

Ribbon: That's not fair! This was the way.

Gum Bally: To where?

Ribbon: To Moustache and Pencil I think.

Button: They're close to us? Let's get to them!

Gum Bally: I can take you to them, Follow me.

(THE END) (TO BE CONTINUED) (HOPE YOU ENJOYED)
