Cledit Card returns from the digital realm and enters his office, only to find that his beloved chromebook has been stolen, and the entire place has been trashed. A guy holding Fish can be seen stuffing the last of Cledit Card's possessions into the upstairs vent, and when he notices that Cledit himself is back, he starts climbing into the vent with slippery precision.
"Hey! What in the frick are you doing with my stuff?!" shouts Cledit.
"I need to feed my children!" responds A guy holding Fish as he slides around the vents.
"Kids don't eat laptops, idiot! I'm gonna have to take that back!" Cledit Card climbs up the wall to the vent, and attempts to pull A guy holding Fish out from it, but is distracted when Dad shows up in his office.
"Hi gonna have to take that back, I'm Dad!" says Dad, while A guy holding Fish crawls away with the laptop stuffed into his jacket. Cledit jumps into the vent and uses his prior training in tunnel navigation to start following A guy holding Fish, who takes one of his many fish from inside of his jacket and shoots it out behind him, smacking Cledit in the face and stunning him momentarily. A guy holding Fish slithers out of a vent opening into the outside world, and starts to run away. Cledit eventually exits the vent himself and spots that A guy holding Fish is already several meters away, so he takes a large leap to try and get closer to catching this nasty laptop thief. A guy holding Fish hasn't run too much since the 5k of '97, so it isn't too hard for Cledit to catch up to the maniac, before offering him a free credit report in exchange for the stolen goods. A guy holding Fish accepts the offer, but makes no move to open his coat and give back the beloved goods.
"Hee hee! By filling out a credit report, you've given me all the information I need to incriminate you! Do you know what they do to CRIMINALS around here?" giggles Cledit.
"You were LYING to me and that is AGAINST the LAW! Who's the real criminal?" retorts A guy holding Fish, utilizing his prowess in reverse psychology. Cledit doesn't fall for A guy holding Fish's tactics, and calls up the Pole Ice Department, another law-bringing organization of Costa Brava. The person who picks up on the other end is Longarm Law, the head of the Pole Ice Department, named for the fact that he has a very long arm.
"Thank you for contacting the Pole Ice Department; are you calling about Poles or Ice?" asks Longarm.
"I got a cold, hard, stealing THIEF on my hands, and uh, there's a pole about 3 feet from my feet." Cledit responds.
"Looks like I'll need to send in Big Guns to deal with this one. He's on his way right now." Longarm says, and turns to look at Big Guns, who is named for the fact that he has massive biceps. Big Guns nods and heads out, while Cledit keeps a healthy distance away from A guy holding Fish. Big Guns is able to cover the distance rather quickly by walking on his large arms, which takes him at a speed faster than the average human can speed, but slower than the average human can drive. A guy holding Fish stands around innocently, just raising his eyebrows when Big Guns arrives at the scene.
"A'right, which ones of yous is da criminal here?" Big Guns says, looking between Cledit and A guy holding Fish.
"Him! He's the perpetrator in this here situation!" snaps Cledit, pointing at A guy holding Fish, who raises his hands in shock.
"I am nothing but a humble fish man! I did nothing!" A guy holding Fish claims.
"Hmm...thems is both purdy convincin' argumnints. But, I knows at least ones of yous has ta be da criminal, so ya'd bettah fess up or I's is just gonna arrest da boths of ya." Big Guns says, frowning. Cledit is stumped, since if he tried to fish into A guy holding Fish's jacket to show the stolen chromebook, it could make him look like a criminal instead. Instead of taking any action, Cledit waits for A guy holding Fish to make an incriminating move. A guy holding Fish shrugs nonchalantly and opens his coat to prove his innocence, as nothing can be seen within the coat save for hordes and hordes of fish.
"He took my chromebook and tried to run away! I saw it, so it must be true!" argues Cledit, but A guy holding Fish waggles his slimy finger.
"Wrong." says A guy holding Fish.
"That'snit, yous boths goin' to jail 'til dis gets sorted outs." Big Guns declares, taking a menacing step towards Cledit and A guy holding Fish.
"NO! I can't go to jail, it'll ruin my perfect credit score!" pleads Cledit, but Big Guns doesn't listen, and picks up both A guy holding Fish and Cledit, before fast traveling back to the Pole Ice Department and taking them both back out of his inventory.
"Are there fishing holes in here? I need fishing holes so I can keep my online business alive!" A guy holding Fish inquires worriedly, and Big Guns thinks for a moment.
"As longs as ya don't use 'em fer anyting illegal, dat can pobably be arranged once yous is transferred ta yer holdin' cell." Big Guns replies. Cledit trips and falls into A guy holding Fish, and in the process manages to completely open his jacket, causing an infinite amount of fish to start piling up on the floor, including one which is suspiciously rectangular.
"There! That's the thing he stole! It just fell out of his jacket!" Cledit exclaims. A guy holding Fish watches in horror as the fish continue falling to the floor, and bursts into tears. Big Guns's very simple mind seems to be incapable of parsing the large amount of objects appearing in the room at once, and he collapses to the ground and has to be hauled away to the hospital on a stretcher. As a result, both Cledit and A guy holding Fish are charged with indirect assault, and their trial is scheduled in five minutes. A guy holding Fish desperately tries to put his fish back in his jacket for the trial, but the years have been cruel to his hands, and he uselessly fumbles with the slippery bodies of the fish. Unable to recover a single fish, A guy holding Fish is demoted to A guy holding Nothing. Cledit Card's credit score drops so low that he simply disintegrates, removing his sentence, as well as creating an extremely deadly Zone of Null Credit, or ZONC for short, at Cledit's spot of death. As a result of this, the trial is put on hold, and A guy holding Nothing is free to leave, but without his fish, he just aimlessly wanders the street without purpose, since the fish were his only reason for living.
