Well, here's the next episode, known as 'Gerald's Game'! Well, sort of. It'll start out and mention some of the elements, but it won't be the plot of the episode, per se. Anyway, enjoy!

"I think we're finally getting close to a graduation ceremony!" I smiled as I came out with Big Patty.

"You said it." Big Patty nodded.

"Of course, I had to get a lot of help, but..." I sighed. "Madame Parvenu seems to appreciate what I do."

"So she does." Big Patty smiled. "All you have to do is put your skills to the test on Friday, and you'll be fine. Need any refreshers?"

I looked up as I saw my ride coming up. "Eh, no thanks, BP. I think I can handle it."

"Very well..." Big Patty said as I went over to my limo. "See you on Friday."

I nodded as I went inside the limo and joined my parents as I looked over to them.

"Hey, sweetheart!" My mom kissed me on the forehead.

"Hey, mom!" I laughed.

"Doing a good job in finishing school, sweetheart?" My dad asked.

"You bet, dad!" I nodded.

"Well, you're almost on your way to graduation soon, sweetheart!" My mom smiled. "So, why don't we settle on a celebration tonight? Any place you desire, we'll take you to eat?"

"Why tonight?" I asked.

"Well, because we need to prepare for your finishing school graduation party on Sunday, darling!" My mom laughed. "It wouldn't be right if we did it on Friday... and I know you want to invite your friends during the weekend."

"True..." I smiled. "Okay, mom... let me think for a second..."

I paused to think as my dad gave me some hints. "You know, Rhonda, there are places you haven't been to in a while with your parents. I'm sure you have a favorite place to..."

I snapped my fingers. "Mick's! That good place where they serve these sweet Italian dishes! It's been quite a while!"

My mom and dad laughed as my mother said, "A wonderful idea, darling. Are you ready to go?"

"Yes, yes I am!" I smiled as we all sat in the limo.

It was a great night at the Italian place... it was the best time of my life with my parents. It just felt so good to be with them... so comfortable.

As I was getting ready for bed that night, I was pulling out the small diary from my backpack, the one I wrote in as a kid as I kept examining the three pages that were stapled. It just... really bothered me that I couldn't open it! Sometime, I need to get a staple remover...

But that didn't worry me too much... I just decided to turn in for the night... just to relax...

The next day, over at the arcade, Arnold, Gerald, Tucker, Lorenzo, Nadine, Phoebe, Lila and I were just showing Arnie around the town, the arcade as Arnie examined the game he was looking at.

"Pinball's not all that bad." I explained as Gerald took his position. "Sometimes, you gotta get the flipper to... flip right."

"I see." Arnie nodded as he continued chewing his plain-flavored gum. "I don't know... maybe it's a little... too exciting for my taste."

Arnie then pulled out his lint and put a couple of chips next to it as he put it in his palm. Most of us blinked as Arnie shrugged. "Button was hungry."

Nadine shook his head. "You and that lint."

Arnie shrugged as Gerald smiled, getting the winner score flashing. "YES!"

"Awesome!" Phoebe smiled as most of us (except for Arnie, who was just watching) high-fived. "You know, the arcade is a pretty good source of entertainment..."

"It is indeed..." Lorenzo said as we started to walk out of the arcade. "Say, the other day I was examining players playing something called 'Dungeons and Dragons'?"

"Dungeons and Dragons!" Tucker nodded. "Oh, I heard of that game. Basically, it's like a role-playing game."

"What is this... 'role-play'?" Lorenzo asked.

"You basically take a character, you pretend to be that character for a certain game, and you act like the characters as a person tells a story!" Lila explained. "It's basically using your imagination."

"Oh..." Lorenzo nodded.

"Oh, yeah..." Gerald smiled. "You know, I have been getting into something called 'The King Rules'."

Arnold frowned. "Gerald, that game is for cosplayers and people who don't have a life."

We all stopped and stared at Arnold as Arnold sighed. "Well, I'm sorry, but it's a waste of time! That game is horribly addictive!"

"Bad as Dungeons and Dragons?" Nadine asked.

"WORSE!" Arnold sighed.

"Oh, come on, Arnold! Doing cosplaying isn't bad. Look, why don't we make up our own story? We go to Nadine's backyard, most of us will be in a random costume of a famous character in fictional media, you can sit back and make up a story!" I suggested.

Arnold frowned. "I don't know..."

"Come on, Arnold. Let's just try it!" Tucker smiled.

"I think this'll be a perfect opportunity for us to bond..." Arnie suggested.

"Si. Besides, we don't have the whole gang as often." Lorenzo smiled.

Arnold sighed. "Fine, but I'm going to regret this..."

Later on, I smiled as I was carrying my costume as I knocked on Nadine's door. Nadine, dressed up in elf ears answered the door. "Ah, come in, Rhonda. Get into your costume, everybody else is already there!"

I nodded as I ran into the bathroom and changed my outfit, getting into the costume. Once I was done, I examined the costume I was in...

It wasn't much of a costume... it was an old costume with octopus legs sticking out, blue and black dress all over, but I could make it work.

"I'm ready, fellas!" I smiled as I came out.

Arnold, the only one who wasn't wearing a costume, who would be our narrator, just stared at me blankly. "Ursula? You're playing Ursula?"

"It was either this, or a Hank the Cowdog costume that I found in my closet. I don't even remember owning THAT costume!" I sighed.

Arnold nodded as he shook his head. "It doesn't matter, get into position..."

I nodded as I sat down with the others. Arnold coughed. "Okay... let me go over your costumes one last time... Rhonda, you are Ursula from the Little Mermaid."

I nodded.

"Nadine, you are Princess Zelda of Legend of Zelda."

Nadine, dressed up in a princess outfit and elf ears, gave a slight bow.

"Phoebe, you are dressed as Mulan from... Mulan, that suits you." Arnold pointed out.

Phoebe giggled as she swirled around in her warrior costume.

"Lila... you are dressed as a 90s caricature." Arnold sighed. "Do you realize that?"

Lila, once again back in her old black shirt, hair ruffled up, red hoodie wrapped around her waist, and blue mini-skirt. "Yo, man, you need to chill-ax! Just say the word!"

"Lila, please promise me you'll go back to your regular outfit when this is over." Lorenzo said as he was wearing a white shirt and fake beard, like a medieval times.

"Lorenzo, what are you?" Arnold asked.

"Hullo. My name is Inigo Montoya. You have killed my mother." Lorenzo started.

"Father." Phoebe sighed.

"Father. Prepare to die." Lorenzo shrugged.

"Right..." Arnold said as he turned to Arnie. "Arnie..."

"Call me... Ishmael." Arnie said as he was dressed up in a sailor's outfit.

Arnold blinked. "Of course! Tucker?"

Tucker nodded as he slid down in a black mask and a Mexican suit as he made a sign with a Z with a marker he was holding. "Zorro, the fox so cunning and free, who makes the sign with a Z!"

Arnold looked towards Gerald... and frowns. "Really, Gerald?"

Gerald, wearing a purple royal robe and a crown on top his massive hair as Gerald blinked. "What? I've been saving this just in case!"

"Sure..." Arnold sighed. "Well, every story needs a king, I suppose. Well, gather round, and just do the story I tell."

"Very well!" Nadine smiled. "Where do we begin?"

Arnold paused as he looked up. "Well... how about this..."

"Once upon a moon, in the distant castle of faraway, lived a king... King Gerald the VIII!"

"I'm liking this story already!" King Gerald the VIII smiled as he sat atop his throne.

"His loyal subjects, Inigo Montoya and Zorro, were his knights of the royal guards, and Mulan was King Gerald's queen."

Mulan giggled as she sat down next to King Gerald, with Zorro and Inigo guarding the two.

"The king and his lovely queen were the happiest they'd ever been. They would always be protective of each other, no matter what! But then... one day... a storm was brewing... a terrible, terrible storm!"

All of a sudden, storms started to pick up as King Gerald and Mulan were clinging on to each other, hoping that they wouldn't let go. Inigo and Zorro were busy swimming for their lives.

"A howling wind came in and swept away Queen Mulan... never to be seen again."

"What?" King Gerald said as Mulan was suddenly swept away in a wave. "That's a terrible thing!"

"Indeed, it was very terrible. That was why you proved to be... a bitter king!"

"You're heck as right I'm bitter! You just said the queen got swept away in a storm!" King Gerald complained.

Ursula (that's me) peeked out as she (I) said, "Yeah, Arnold, kind of a... disappointment. By the way, when do I appear in the story?"

"Just a second, Rhonda, you'll get your time in the sun."

Ursula (me) nodded as she (I) slithered away.

"Anyway, King Gerald the VIII was proven to be a bitter king for many months. He ordered Zorro and Inigo Montoya to fight each other every day because of how bitter he is."

"Fight, clowns, fight!" King Gerald ordered.

"Hullo. My name is Inigo Montoya! You have killed my brother." Inigo started.

"Father." Zorro rolled his eyes.

"Whatever. Prepare to die!" Inigo glared as he and Zorro started sword-fighting.

"It became this way until one day... uh... one day... hm... the jester appeared!"

King Gerald, Inigo and Zorro blinked as nothing happened.

"PST! Lila!"

"Oh!" The jester said as she came out. "Yo, what is happenin', you kingliness!"

"Oh, shut up, you jester, I am in no mood for your behavior!" King Gerald said.

"Really, man, because I just recently heard that your queen is alive and well, dude." The jester called.

"What? My lovely queen?" King Gerald gasped. "Well... where is she?"

"Far in the mountains, deep within the lake... will you find your lovely queen, being protected by a sea witch! Ducks rock, man! Ducks rock!" The jester said as she gave her peace symbol before walking out.

"Seriously, Lila, never act like that again." Inigo sighed.

"And so, with this new information, he sent Zorro and Inigo on a quest to save the queen. But the king knew this group needed one more!"

"We do?" Zorro asked.

"Yes. That is why King Gerald assigned his butt-kicking daughter on the quest... Princess Zelda!"

King Gerald laughed as Zelda walked on the screen as he put a hand on her shoulder. "Go now, my dear, and rescue your mother."

"I shall try my best, father." Princess Zelda nodded.

"And then he died."

"WHAT?" King Gerald glared. "ARNOLD!"

"You're dead now, Gerald, Now lay motionless on the ground."

King Gerald muttered as he fainted right on the ground. "You'll pay for this!"

Zelda started crying. "By the name of God... I WILL AVENGE YOU, FATHER!"

"And so, Princess Zelda, Zorro and Inigo started to climb up the mountains. It was there that they met a sailor sitting on the dock."

Zelda, Inigo and Zorro were later seen climbing up mountains until they came across a sailor, looking at the lake from a distance.

"Hey, Arnold!" Ursula (again, me) peeked out. "When do I appear?"

"Just wait a minute, Rhonda."

Ursula (me) nodded as she (I) slithered out.

"Greetings, fellow traveler." Zorro nodded as the sailor snorted.

"Hello." The sailor said.

"We have to get across the lake, but we need a boat." Princess Zelda explained.

"You're in luck. I happen to own a boat down this dock. Shall we go?"

"Si." Inigo smiled. "My name is Inigo Montoya. You have killed my uncle."

"Father!" Princess Zelda said in annoyance.

"Whatever! Prepare to die!" Inigo glared.

"I am the one known as Zorro!" Zorro said, holding his sword.

"And I'm the royal princess Zelda, who likes to kick butt!" Zelda curtseyed.

"Charmed." The sailor nodded. "They call me... Ishmael!"

"And so, Zelda, Inigo, Zorro and Ishmael started sailing across the sea where they had marvelous adventures... including one where they played skateboard across the ramp..."

On the boat across the sea, Inigo was skateboarding the ramp as Zelda, Inigo and Ishmael held a '8', '5' and a '6' respectively.

"...an adventure where they went into outer space and blew up the moon..."

The boat went up into space as Zelda blew up the moon with her attack as Inigo, Zorro and Ishmael applauded.

"...and sang along with the mermaids!"

The boat was back on the sea as Zorro was doing karaoke with some mermaids as he sang, "ZORRO, ZORRO, THE FOX SO CUNNING AND FREE!"

Inigo, Zelda, Ishmael, and even the mermaids covered their ears in horror with Zorro's awful singing.

"It was not until..."

"Am I appearing now?" Ursula (me) peeked in and asked.

"I'm just about to introduce you!"

"Oh boy!" Ursula (me) gasped in delight. "I can't wait!"

"It was not until three days later that Zelda's team made it to the center of the lake where they saw Queen Mulan, tied to a tree!"

Zelda, Inigo, Ishmael and Zorro gasped as they saw Mulan tied to a tree as Mulan stared with an unimpressed look. "Somehow, I doubt that is even possible!"

"Zorro was about to save everyone, when all of a sudden, the villain came out! That is right..."

Zelda, Inigo, Ishmael and Zorro gasped as the villain came out of the water.

"URSULA THE SEA WITCH WAS COMING IN AND EXACTING REVENGE OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE TOWN!"

"Wait..." Ursula (me) looked up in shock. "Wait, what?"

Ursula (me) just frowned as Inigo marched up. "Hello! My name is Amigo Toyota!"

Everyone (except me) just facepalmed.

Inigo growled. "WHATEVER! YOU KILLED MY FATHER, PREPARE TO DIE!"

"No!" Ursula (me) frowned. "No, I'm not doing this!"

"Rhonda, what's wrong?"

"I'm out! I'm out!" Ursula (me) ranted.

"I am so out!" I growled as I tore up the legs of my costume. "I am not playing the villain!"

"Well, come on! You're dressed as one!" Gerald pointed out as he was sitting besides Arnold.

"I don't want to be profiled as a villain! Good-bye!" I growled as I marched out of the house and sat down outside.

I just sighed and mumbled as I looked down, disappointed.

"Rhonda? Are you feeling okay?" I heard Arnold say as he joined me.

"I'm sorry..." I sighed. "It's just... I wanted to have fun, show you that cosplaying and telling stories can mean something... but..."

"Rhonda... after seeing everyone having fun as I told a random story... I actually had a lot of fun." Arnold smiled. "It's not something I want to do again, but it's still fun. Besides..."

Arnold hugged me. "It's not fun without you..."

I sighed. "I just... didn't want to be profiled as a villain, you know..."

"I'm sorry, Rhonda." Arnold sighed. "But I was so stuck on a villain, and..."

"I understand..." I sighed as Arnold hugged me. I smiled as I hugged him back. "Aw, I forgive you, you little softie!"

Arnold smiled. "Why don't we go back inside. I had Gerald take over the story."

I nodded. "Okay... I think that'll be fine."

As Arnold and I went back inside, we noticed Gerald was hugging Phoebe.

"And so, Gerald the handsome king did NOT die after all and saved his handsome queen by himself. As for Zelda, Inigo, Zorro and Ishmael, they all got swept away in a huge storm and drowned." Gerald smiled. "They were never seen again."

"Oh, you cheeky little!" Nadine growled as we all had a good laugh. Certainly, a great day just being kids.
