Holy crunch it's been a while. Seriously, the last episode came in September of 2017! Yikes!

I actually made lots of episodes, but I actually erased them, and I didn't like how they turned out, so I made replacements which are these.


The Five Nights at Freddy's Show!

S3 E4a: Video Game Time

Written By: mmdestroyer973

Freddy was sitting down in the living room, doing literally nothing.

*TICK!*

The clock ticked. It was 4:00 PM.

"FOUR-O-CLOCK!" Freddy jumped off of the couch. "IT'S VIDEO GAME TIME!"

Freddy ran into the kitchen. He grabbed a liter of soda, five bags of party mix snacks, and an entire container of napkins.

"I was saving you for this exact moment." Freddy dug into his pants pocket. He pulled out an energy bar. It was squished up, and the wrapper was wrinkly.

*CHOMP!*

He ate the entire thing.

Freddy closed all of the blinds and turned off all of the lights in the living room. He then covered himself with a blanket and turned on the TV. Chica came in.

"Why is it so dark in here?" Chica asked, letting out her hands because she could not see.

"It's my video game time," Freddy yelled, not looking away from the TV. "Now get out of the living room."

"Wha-You can't just occupy the WHOLE living room!" Chica shouted. "And you shouldn't be eating that much junk food."

"Yeah, I can." Freddy turned to look at Chica. "BYE, CHICA."

Chica growled and went upstairs. Freddy turned on the console. But the TV Read: "NO INPUT".

"Huh?" Freddy looked at the back of the TV to make sure the wires were in properly, and they were.

Freddy reset the console. The TV still read "NO INPUT". Freddy restarted the TV. It still read: "NO INPUT".

"GRRAAA!" Freddy stamped his feet. Freddy stamped his feet so loud, that if you were in the basement, YOU COULD HEAR!

*BANG!*

Fred came. "What's happening?" He asked. "Why is it so dark in here?"

"Hey, Fred," Freddy called. "The TV isn't recognizing the Input for my console. Any advice?"

"No." Fred went back into the basement.

*BANG!* *BANG!*

Freddy banged the TV.

*FLICK!*

The light flicked on. It was Bonnie and Foxy.

"Whazzup?" They asked.

"The TV isn't recognizing the input for my console," Freddy told them.

"Did you-"

"Yes, I did check if they were in properly."

"Did you-"

"Yes, I did reset the Console, AND the TV."

"Did you-"

"No Foxy. I did not wake you up this morning."

"Sorry, we don't know. You gotta look it up or something." Bonnie said.

"Try what you did before multiple times." Foxy pointed out.

They opened the door to their hideout.

"Where are you guys going?" Freddy asked.

"Movie." They said. "Bye! Good luck with fixing the game!"

*ZOOM!*

They were gone.

"GRR!" Freddy banged the TV.

*BANG!* *BANG!* *FLASH!*

The TV showed the game console input for a second.

"Huh?" Freddy banged it again.

*BANG!*

It did it again. Freddy smiled. He had an idea.

*BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!*

The Game was on after he banged the TV multiple times. It was Battle Adventurers Revenge.

"YES!" Freddy crisscrossed his legs and played. He did 1-Player Mode vs. the computer.

"READY...STEADY...GO!" The game shouted.

Freddy moved around to grab an item.

JUST THEN-

*FLASH!*

"AAAH!" Freddy screamed.

Electricity flashed on the TV, and through the wires.

*ZAP!*

The hideout was out of power.

"Uh oh," Freddy said as he looked around.

*FWOOSH!*

The TV caught on Fire.

"We're going to need a new TV."


The Five Nights at Freddy's Show!

S3 E4b: Candyland

Written by: mmdestroyer973

Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy all did exercises in the living room.

"Ayo, ayo, ayo! Working out ain't dirty! Put your hands up, and count to thirty!" The program on the TV played. Cringy techno music played in the background. It displayed a tall man with a bunch of people in the background, who mimicked his actions.

"I hate this..." Foxy complained. "How can I cover my ears and do the exercise at the same time?! This music sucks me booty."

"Sounds like someone ain't hot and strong enough!" Bonnie teased him. Bonnie performed burpees, which was a much more complex exercise, to tease Foxy.

"GAH!" Freddy fell over as he attempted to do the exercise. "Chica, can we quit now? Me tired."

"Nope!" She wiped some sweat off of her face.

"We've been doing this for like 60 minutes!" Freddy got up and dusted himself off. "That's a whole hour."

"Uh, it's only been six minutes," Bonnie said, glancing at his wristwatch.

[Audience Laughs]

"If you wanna lose weight, here's a trick, yo! Get on the ground and do some flutter kicks, yo!" The program on the television played.

"Uhhh," Freddy fell over.

"Come on guys..." Chica paused the program and walked in front of the TV to get their attention. "What's so hard about this? I thought it would be a nice idea for us to all exercise as a group and have fun! I did this for you guys"

"Why can't we play video games and have fun?" Freddy opened a can of pop. "That always turns out great."

"Up, up up!" Bonnie took the can. "No soda, Freddy."

"Yeah, all it does is make bubbles in your tummy!" added Chica.

"Hehe, it tickles!" Freddy laughed and played with his stomach, which had bubbles inside of it.

"See, Chica, we have a lot in common!" Bonnie went to her.

Chica took a couple of steps away from him and said, "Well, let's just end today's session."

*ZOOM!*

The boys appeared in the kitchen.

*NOM NOM NOM!*

"Huh?" Chica entered. The boys were eating candy. "Guys, really?"

"What?" Foxy said, his voice was muffled because it was full of tootsie rolls.

"You guys can't just stuff your face with candy after exercising!" Chica put her hands on her hips. "You shouldn't even be doing that at all."

"Come on, Chica." Freddy rolled his eyes. "I think we deserve at least some candy after all that hard work."

"HARD WORK!" Chica screamed and steam came out of her nose and ears. "My mother can do way more exercises than all of you!"

"That's because she's good at doing those poses," checked Foxy as he glanced at the other two boys with a dirty look.

"HAHA!" They all laughed.

"ARGGG!" Chica's face was an instant tomato.

"Anyways, let us eat our candy in peace," Bonnie said. "We can just exercise tomorrow anyway, it's not like something bad is going to happen to us."

"I guess so," Chica turned. But then a lightbulb appeared above her head. "But, what IF something bad ACTUALLY happens!" She told herself.

Chica rapidly turned back around to face them. She made a concerned face and pouted at the boys. "But, something bad IS going to happen!"

"Something will?" Foxy asked, with his mouth full of marshmallows.

"Yes!" Chica said, pointing her index finger into the air. "If you eat too much candy, you will get sent to CANDYLAND!" She made up.

*CAMERA ZOOMS IN ON CHICA'S FACE*

"Candyland?" Freddy asked chewing on some gummy worms, so much that his saliva dripped from his mouth. "That sounds like fun!"

"What's Candyland like?" Bonnie asked as he unwrapped some snickers.

"It's, uh, a spooky place where everything is made of CANDY!" Chica put her hands in the air and shook her fingers.

"WOW!" The boys looked at each other and laughed.

"Candyland! Candyland! Candyland!" The boys chanted.

"NO!" Chica stamped her feet, she wanted them to be afraid of it. "Candyland is a very evil place! It will mess with your brain! You will go cuckoo crazy!"

"Crazy?!" The boys looked at each other. "I don't wanna be crazy!"

*SPIT SPIT SPIT!*

They spit their candy on the floor.

"I'm afraid it's too late." Chica covered her mouth to give the impression that she was concerned. "You already ate too much candy!"

"AAAAAAAA!" The boys ran around and screamed. "We're going to go to Candyland!"

"We're going to DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Freddy picked up Bonnie and Foxy by their shirts and screamed in their faces.

"Heh heh." Chica chuckled under her breath. "That should get them to stop eating candy and finally spend some time with me to exercise!"

"Chica, there has to be a way to get rid of this curse!" Bonnie got on his knees.

"You're going to have to exercise every afternoon with me for..." Chica glanced at a calendar for a moment. "...for three months!"

"THREE MONTHS!" The boys shouted in fear.

"Or else you will vanish out of nowhere, and be transported into Candyland!" Chica explained.

"NOOOOOO!" The boys screamed, they were very afraid of Candyland.

"HAHAHA!" Chica laughed, she slapped her thigh. "I'm just playing with you guys."

The boys stopped screaming. They stared straight at Chica.

"Well, in that case,"

*NOM!* *NOM!*

They went straight back to the candy and gobbled it up.

"Guys, even though Candyland isn't real, you still shouldn't eat eating that much-"

*FLASH!*

"AAAH!" Chica covered her eyes and fell to the ground. A white light flashed. Chica got up a couple of seconds later and rubbed her eyes. "Guys!"

Freddy, Bonnie, and Foxy were GONE. "AAAA!" Chica screamed. "Where did they-" Chica ran around the kitchen and looked in drawers to see where they went. But then Chica had just realized something. She pouted. "Please don't tell me...that Candyland is real!"

[Audience Gasps]

Chica paced around the kitchen, in nervousness. "This is bad, this is really bad!" She stopped walking around and sighed. "I have to go... rescue them, don't I?" Her attention went to the candy jar. There were 2 KitKats, Skittles, and some Hershey's. "I can't believe I'm doing this." Chica opened all of the candies and ate them all at once.

*CHEW* *CHEW*

"Ehh, fruit and chocolate do not go great toget-"

*FLASH!*

Chica was gone. Fred walked out of the basement to see chewed up candy, and their wrappers on the floor. "I didn't know Haloween was in March," he said.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Freddy, Bonnie, and Foxy all screamed. They were flying through a weird tunnel at the speed of light. The tunnel was white and it had red stripes around it.

*ZOOOOOOOOOOM!*

"What's going on!" Bonnie screamed.

"I don't know!" replied Freddy.

"Wait, look, lads!" Foxy pointed.

The end of the tunnel was approaching, the light got closer and closer.

*THUD!*

The three boys fell on a sticky floor. "Uhh," Freddy got up. "WHOA!" They were in Candyland.

Bonnie got up. "Holy Sweet Crap!" he said.

Foxy, who was still on the ground, smelled the ground and licked it. "YO, this floor is made up of dough!" Foxy chewed on it.

Freddy saw pebbles on the floor. "These pebbles are skittles!"

"These rocks are rock candy!" Bonnie punched the rock to break it into small pieces and ate it.

*SIP!*

Foxy sipped the lake. "This lake is HONEY!"

"And these trees are giant swirly lollipops!" Freddy licked the trees.

*THUD!*

Freddy fell in a bush which was under the tree. "And this bush is jello!"

"This place is AWESOME!" shouted Bonnie.

*NOM!* *NOM!*

The boys stopped eating. A thinking bubble appeared above all of their heads, and it displayed Chica.

"Candyland is a very evil place! It will mess with your brain! You will go cuckoo crazy!" Chica in the thought bubble said, and then it vanished.

"AAAA!" The boys shouted in fear again.

Freddy jumped out of the bush. "Have we already gone cuckoo crazy?!"

"I don't know!" Foxy got up and looked at his hands, which were covered in the honey water. "Probably not?!"

"We are cuckoo crazy!" Bonnie shrieked. "WE'RE LITERALLY EATING ROOOOOCKS!" his voice echoed in Candyland.

"You're not going cuckoo crazy!" Someone said.

"Huh?" The boys turned to where the voice was heard.

Standing there was a large marshmallow, a large stick of gum, and a gingerbread woman. They all had eyes, arms, and legs, and wore their associated wrappers over them.

"Who are you guys?" Freddy asked.

"I'm Marsha Marshmallow." The marshmallow introduced herself.

"I'm Gabriella Gumstick." greeted the stick of gum.

"And I am Cathy the Gingerbreadwoman." said the gingerbread woman.

"Why doesn't your name start with G?" asked Foxy.

"IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE CONSISTENT!" shouted Cathy.

"Whatever!" Freddy shouted in annoyance. "What is this place? I wanna go home, man!"

"Why do you want to go home?" asked Cathy.

"Yeah, you should definitely STICK around for a bit!" Marsha put her arm around Freddy.

"Besides, you won't be able to CHEW yourself out of here, tee hee!" Gabriella giggled. "You're stuck here forever."

"AAAAAAAAAAAA!" The boys shouted. "FOREVER?!"

"Don't be afraid, you three were MINT to be here anyway." Gabriella approached Bonnie.

"Uh, personal space please?" Bonnie stepped back.

"You will make our lives less SOUR," said Marsha. "Now, Gabi!"

Gabriella Gumstick sprayed a substance onto the boys, and they got knocked out.

"Uh..." they fell over.

MEANWHILE WITH CHICA...

"SCREEAAAAAAAAM!" Chica was flying through the peppermint tunnel at the speed of light. "IS THIS SOME KIND OF ACID TRIP?! AAAH!"

*FLASH!* *THUD!*

Chica fell into Candyland. She got up and dusted herself off. "I can't believe I got myself into this." She facepalmed. "Alright, where are those boys?" Chica walked around the land, she started to notice how everything was replaced with candy. "But most importantly, how in the world are we going to get out of this place?" she asked herself.

MEANWHILE WITH FOXY...

"Argh...my head!" Foxy woke up. He rubbed his head. "A gingerbread house?" Foxy realized he was in a gingerbread house. He was on a gingerbread bed, in the gingerbread houses' bedroom. Foxy signed in relief. "At least they aren't going to do anything bad to me."

*CREAK!*

A door opened. Foxy turned. "Hello!" it was Cathy the Gingerbread woman.

"What the-you?" Foxy asked. He got off of the bed. "Can you please tell me what the junk is going, lass?"

"We just want to help you...baby," replied Cathy in a very odd manner.

"You can help me by telling me how to get the JUNK OUT OF HERE, THAT'S HOW!" Foxy shouted. "And don't call me a baby, I'm a grown man."

Cathy made baby steps into the bedroom. She used her feet to close the door. She then played with her frosting hair.

"What are you doing?" asked Foxy, who was very uncomfortable. "Stay back!"

Cathy walked closer to him. She unbuttoned her wrapper and threw it on the bed. Foxy—who was still on the bed—stared at the wrapper in nervousness and chock. "What the-"

"Come chew on this sugar, baby!" Cathy walked closer to him.

"AAAAA!" Foxy screamed. "I'M NOT MARRIED YET!"

Cathy got impatient, and she sprayed a substance on Foxy. Foxy stopped resisting, and his pupils enlarged drastically. "WHOAAAA..." he let his arms out and approached her.

MEANWHILE...

Freddy and Bonnie woke up. They were inside of a cake castle.

"It's dark in here!" Freddy looked around.

*CLICK!*

Two Pink cake candles turned on and lit up the place.

"HEHE!" It was Gabriella and Marsha. "Time to experiMINT!" They approached them. "Get it, mint? Because I'm a stick of gum!"

"AAHH!" Freddy and Bonnie were wrapped in gum, and they couldn't move.

Chica ran around Candyland. "How do I get out of here!"

*THUD!*

"Huh?" Chica bumped into a street sign. "M&M Avenue and Werther Way." Chica read the sign. There were a large gingerbread house and a giant cake castle. "Something tells me that I have to go to those two houses."

"HALT!" Someone shouted. Chica turned around. There were six giant M&Ms with arms, legs, and faces.

"Don't you want to eat us?!" The yellow M&M asked. "We taste pretty good."

"No, yellow," the red M&M facepalmed. "You aren't supposed to tell them to eat you."

"Well, what do I do?" the yellow one scratched his head.

"You are supposed to trick them into letting us eating them!" shouted red.

"Wait, they are M&M's too?" Yellow shrieked.

"They look pretty scary to be an M&M." The orange one jumped behind red.

"Maybe they just need to calm down a bit." The green one put on some lip gloss.

"Nobody wants a kiss from you." the Blue one told Green. "You think you're so beautiful and everybody likes you, huh?"

The brown M&M looked at the camera and said: "They do this every time." She then turned towards Chica. "Chica, just go rescue your friends. They are in those two buildings over there."

"Thank you!" Chica ran to the buildings.

Red, blue, green, orange, and yellow M&M kept arguing.

"Shut the front door or I'll eat ALL OF YOU." shouted the brown one, which caused them all to stop talking.

Chica ran as fast as she could. She ran past two gingerbread men, who were fishing.

"Howdy!" One of the ginger men asked. "I'm Mike. Would you like to fish some Swedish fish with me and my buddy Ike?!" he revealed one of the Swedish fish to show Chica.

"AAAAAHHH!" Chica shouted in anger and disappointment. "I have to rescue my friends!"

*ZIP!*

Chica ran away.

"I guess she's vegan." The other gingerbread man said.

Chica arrived at the large gingerbread house. "Dang it!" She attempted to open the door but was locked. Chica stood there for a second and then she realized something. "Wait, this is freaking gingerbread!"

*CHEW!* *CRUNCH!*

Chica chewed through the door and burst inside. Nobody was in the living room or the kitchen.

"UGH!" Chica heard somebody grunt upstairs. "The bedroom!" she raced upstairs. She then chewed through the bedroom door. "WHAT THE FUDGE!" shouted Chica. Fudge was all over the room.

"Yes! Oh yeah!" Foxy was on the gingerbread bed, with Cathy. He was eating her up.

"Yes! Keep eating me!" Cathy yelled.

"What is going on?" Chica touched Foxy's shoulder. Foxy rapidly turned around, and his pupils were large. There were white frosting and fudge all over his face.

"HIIIIIIIIII CHICA!" Foxy said. "Wow, you look tasty!" He walked towards her.

Chica ran from Foxy and he followed her. "What did you do to him?!" She turned to Cathy.

"Oh, nothing. He's just eating all this sugar." Cathy waved her hand over her body.

"You are filthy and sick!" Chica was upset. Her attention went back to Foxy, who was still hypnotized by Cathy. "Change him back this instant!"

"It's too late, sugar, he's under my spell." Cathy got off of the bed and put her wrapper back on. "As long as I'm here, he will always have a sweet tooth for my frosting!"

"Have some of this frosting!" Chica whipped out a cupcake bomb, lit it, and threw it to Cathy.

"How'd you know my birthday was tom-"

*POW!*

Cathy blew up into pieces and Foxy was back to normal. He fell to the ground.

"Oh, what the fudge happened?" He put his hand on his face and felt frosting. "Did she make me-" he asked Chica.

"Yes..." Chica answered before Foxy could finish. "Now let's get Freddy and Bonnie! I think they're in that cake house castle thing the street!"

"Can I lay down here a bit?" asked Foxy. "I'm traumatized by what I just dealt with." his eyes started to get watery.

"Do whatever you gotta do."

*CRUMBLE!* *CRUMBLE!*

They heard something behind them.

"Hello!" It was Cindy the gingerbread woman. She came back to life.

"Actually, let's just get the fudge out of here." Foxy got up.

"Foxy, it's time for round two!" Cindy started to run towards them.

*POW!*

Chica punched the window of the bedroom, which was just hard candy. She and Foxy jumped out. The M&Ms were outside.

"Yo, it's them!" the red one pointed to Chica and Foxy. "Let's go eat them!"

*CHOMP!*

The brown M&M bit a piece of red. "You guys are next." She told the other four.

"Do I taste good?" red asked.

"Well, you could use some peanuts!" brown rapidly turned to yellow, and she made an evil grin.

"I have nuts?" yellow M&M looked down.

"How do we get in here!" Foxy looked at the giant cake castle.

"AAAAAAAAAAA!" Chica stepped back to get a running start and ran right through the cake castle.

"When will this nightmare end?" Foxy said as he did the same to get in the castle.

*SQUISH!*

They were in the cake castle. Freddy and Bonnie were in the middle of the room, and they were tied up in gum, preventing them from moving. Marsha and Gabriella were there, and they were holding spatulas, piping bags, and multiple bags of sprinkles.

"Foxy! Chica!" Freddy shouted. "Save us, they're turning us into a cake!"

"You lads won't believe what I had to go through." Foxy folded his arms and rolled his eyes.

Marsha and Gabriella grunted and threw their cake utensils to the side. "Do your worst!"

"YAAA!" Chica threw two cupcake bombs, one to each of them.

*BLAST!*

Marsha got slightly toasted. "Thanks, now I'm warm and toasty! Tee hee!"

"NO!" Chica screamed.

Foxy used his pirate hook and attacked Gabriella. "Aw, stick!" Foxy looked at his hook which was covered in gum.

"Such weaklings!" Marsha laughed. "Now it's our turn!" Marsha let out her hand. Gabriella ripped a piece of gum from herself and gave it to Marsha. Marsha chewed it and blew a bubble.

"AAAH!" Foxy and Chica ran from the bubble.

*PUSH!*

Cathy—who just arrived—pushed the two into the bubble. "Missed me, sugar?"

"We're doomed!" Bonnie cried.

"Since you guys wanted to give us a hard time, I think we'll just kill you and call it a day! Tee hee!" said Marsha. "Do it, Cathy!"

Cathy grabbed three of the giant cake candles that were used to light up the room. She threw two to her other sweet friends. "You won't be able to CHEW your way out of this!"

"Yeah, I DONUT know if you guys will even have a chance!" Marsha added.

"That one was EXTRA!" Gabriella gumstick added.

"I can't believe we're going to die listening to these terrible candy puns!" Freddy cried.

"Hey, at least we'll die in a SWEET way!" Bonnie said. He chuckled.

The entire room got silent.

"Sorry."

"Anyways, any last words?" Cathy walked closer with the cake candle.

"Please!" Foxy begged. "Can't we can work something out!"

"Wait a minute." Chica put her arm on Foxy's shoulder. "Work...OUT!" Chica whipped out her phone and opened the exercise program. "I'm so lucky I downloaded the app!" Chica played the video.

"Yo, I know that you wanna lose some weight, so I got some workouts that are super great!" The cringy techno music played.

"Oh, that is not sweet!" Marsha the marshmallow dropped the candle, so she could cover her ears. It fell on her foot, and then she caught on fire. "AAAAAH!" She ran outside and jumped into the pool. But wait, the water is honey! "NOOOOO!" Marsha hardened up in the honey.

"Ooh, I've never seen that fish before." Mike the gingerbread man arrived and grabbed his fishing rod.

"Lucky pull!" Ike watched Mike.

Marsha looked at the camera and said, "Well, I'm in a sticky situation right now."

Back in the cake castle, Gabriella heard the exercise song and covered her ears. "UGH!" She started to inflate into a bubble.

"Come on kid, exercising ain't wack! To start the routine, do some jumping jaaaaaaaaaacks!"

Chica and Foxy did Jumping jacks.

*POP!*

The bubble containing Chica and Foxy popped because they did the exercise.

"Can you please pop me too?" Gabriella asked as she was a bubble.

"No." Freddy blew on her.

"AAAAHHH!" She flew to Neptune.

"Great kid, just watch your heart rate! Now Finish the warmup and jog in place!" the program played.

Foxy and Chica jogged in place.

"Fools!" Cathy said. "That won't do a single thing to me!" She folded her arms.

*BANG!*

Cathy just blew up out of nowhere.

"I guess that's how the cookie crumbles." Freddy looked at the ashes of Cathy.

The gum melted off of Freddy and Bonnie and they were free. The four then breakdanced for a couple of seconds and then stopped when the music did. Chica put her phone back in her back pocket. They looked at each other and smiled.

"HAHAHAHA!" They all had a good laugh.

"I have to admit that was fun." Freddy wiped tears from his eye.

"Now, we have to know how to get out of here."

"Who's down to eat the whole place?" Freddy raised his hand.

"No lie, I would." Foxy raised his hand.

"Guys, seri-" Chica spoke but then,

*FLASH!*

They all appeared in the peppermint tunnel again.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" They all screamed as they flew through the tunnel.

"MY EYES!" Freddy squealed as he flew through the tunnel.

*FLASH!*

They were back in the kitchen. They instantly fell on the floor. Fred played video games in the living room.

"Uhhh..." They all moaned and groaned.

"What the fudge happened?" Fred came over. "You guys alright?" He helped them stand up.

"We were in Candyland." Bonnie scratched his head.

"What in the world is Candyland?" Fred shrugged his shoulders.

"Long story."

"Listen, guys, I'm sorry this all happened." Chica put her hands behind her back in sorrow. "I just wanted to exercise with all my favorite people. I made up Candyland, but it just so happened to be a real place. Very odd coincidence, but I'm sorry."

"We owe you an apology too." Bonnie put his hand on her shoulder. "We didn't really take it seriously, especially with all the candy and junk."

"Uh-huh." Freddy and Foxy looked at each other and nodded.

"Well, I'm just glad you all are okay," Fred told them. He looked at the counter and saw a marshmallow, a stick of gum, and a gingerbread person. "Ooh, snacks!"

"NOOO!" The four screamed, and they smacked it out of Fred's hand.
