You were sitting with Johnny just talking and hanging out. He was telling you about the Steel Ball Run Race and his adventures along the way, keeping the details vague for reasons you didn't know. But he kept bringing up this one person: Gryo. Eventually, you caved and asked about him.

"What happened to Gyro...?" Johnny then looked off into the distance with a somber look in his eyes. "He stayed on the beach."
