"A bowl of gyūdon (beef onion rice bowl) without cheese? Darn!" White Bomber angrily facepalmed, as the Sukiya waitress gave him the last bowl of the gang's purchase.
"Gyūdon without cheese is like a man without a lover," Orange Bomber shrugged.
"Don't worry, big brother," Green Bomber replied, offering a bowl of cheesy gyūdon to White Bomber. "I ordered mine with cheese, but now I feel too queasy to eat cheese."
"Thanks, Green," White replied. "You're a kind little brother." White gave the lady their money, paying for the food.
Purple Bomber, the big sister, was reading a local magazine. "There's this new indoor resort and candy store. It's called Pat Pierro's, and I think we should all go!"
Green saw the clown mascot, on the article's picture. "Ugh! Clowns are scary, evil monsters!"
"You're crazy, Green," another big sister, Yellow Bomber replied, as she put extra pickled red ginger on her food. "I love clowns. They cheer me up. My smartphone cover features happy clowns!"
"Guys and gals," White Bomber replied, "let's all eat our food. Then, we'll all go to Pat Pierro's together, so our eldest sister Purple shall be happy."

After they all finished eating their food, they walked to Pat Pierro's, not far from the Sukiya restaurant. Outside the entrance, a happy clown held up a promotional sign. The clown happily sang "I'm a Pat Pierro yeah, you're a Pat Pierro yeah! We are all Pat Pierros!" In response to the gang, he greeted them all kindly, saying "Welcome to Pat Pierro's! We are hiring, and our place is a dream come true! We even have our own schools, a candy store, a huge video game arcade, and a pizzeria!"
"Our old school got shut down from a lack of students, and we quit our stinky jobs at Buggle Burgers," White replied. "Can we join you?"
"Of course! Our employment training program isn't hard at all, it's very easy," the clown nodded and smiled. "All employees get free ice cream daily, any and every flavor of their choice! We have many different occupations available. They include Teacher, Janitor, Pizza and Salad Chef, Bakery, Ice Cream Parlor, Arcade Manager, and Students… students can sign up for a fantastic Pat Pierro's Pizza Points program."
The Bombers happily signed up for many different occupations, they couldn't resist such heavenly experiences. Green was too young to work, so he got signed up as a student, with the first day of school in August (the day after they signed up). As they went inside, they saw tons of smiling bomber people, especially bomber children, playing arcade games, eating pizza and ice cream, winning prizes, and being seated on cheerful animatronics' laps. Nothing seemed malicious, though Green Bomber was somewhat scared of the animatronics.
"Hi, shamrock boy," a smiling, tuxedo and bowtie-wearing giraffe animatronic said. "My name is Wallace the Giraffe, and I love apples. If you can find the golden apple in the arcade, I'll give you a prize!"
"Um, okay," Green anxiously nodded, holding Yellow's hand. He felt uneasy about the place, but he was super excited to play arcade games. He and his big sister both played several arcade games, such as Shark Hunt, Treasure Quest, and Whack A Mole. As the other bombers were undergoing employee training, Yellow was to start hers tomorrow, since Green was too young to be unsupervised - and he had to start school tomorrow.

"Welcome to the Pat Pierro's Employee Training DVD," a male narrator read aloud on a widescreen TV. "This is the history of Pat Pierro's and his founder, Pat Parmy. Pat was a poor, frail man, growing up in a rural village. He made homemade candies, using sweet potato starch, sugar syrup, and rose essence, and everyone loved them. When his father passed away from pancreatic cancer, he turned the former MOS Burger restaurant into the one and only Pat Pierro's in Bomberville… here are the rules you must follow to work here. Regardless of your position, remember these guidelines: maintain proper hygiene, be respectful and polite, make everyone as happy as possible, and believe in our mystery man."
