    The contestants are featured talking among themselves in the Hotel's lobby. Four is also downstairs, and he attempts to give Roboty a portion of Two's power. However, Roboty refuses, smacking Four's hand away by opening his chest compartment. Roboty states that Four doesn't deserve his help. Snowball complains to Four that Grassy hasn't received his share of the power, but Four explains that he has the last of it. Outside, some of the contestants are collectively using their fragments of Two's power to create a protective barrier around the Hotel, shielding it from the lightning bolts. When a bolt strikes, it deflects off of the barrier, striking the solidified lava timer and converting it into a pile of digital timers. Just as Four ushers out more people to strengthen the barrier, another bolt strikes, deflecting off of the barrier and striking the sky. The sky converts into a pitch black, tar-like mass. Liy repeatedly flips her main switch to no avail. Snowball asks what just happened. Four quickly grabs everyone back inside and asks if anyone has seen X.

    meanwhile, at the Abandoned TV Studio. X is detaching Profily and Lollipop from the memory machine.

    X: "Here we go! That should do it!" Woody barges into the room, screaming. He trips and falls right in front of Blocky.

    Blocky: "Woodster, I thought we were over this! What is it now?" Match peeks in from the doorway.

    Match: "Uhh... like, something, like, totally weird is happening, guys. Come look." Everyone heads outside. The sky above them runs black, with goop-like strands coming down from above, much like the situation back at the hotel.

    Match: "Oh, gosh! I hope, like, Pencil is okay!" Everyone is staring at the sky in varying levels of bewilderment and fear. While everyone is distracted, X tries to head back inside, briefly putting their hand in a snapping-like form with power emanating from it, only for Lollipop and Flower to notice, with Lollipop calling them out.

    Lollipop: "Where do you think you're going, X?"

    Flower: "She's right! We need you now more than ever!"

    X: "I, oh!-" Lollipop and Flower give increasingly aggravated glares. "Okay..."
