Dervis swims around in the vast ocean, desperately searching for land. His muscles are growing weary, and he's not sure how much longer he can keep it up before he inevitably succumbs to exhaustion. Suddenly, Dervis sees a boat in the distance, and, invigorated by the thought of salvation, swims towards it.
"HELP! I NEED HELP! HELP MEEE!" Dervis calls out, waving an arm in the air as he gets close to the boat. The imposing figure of Government steps over to the railing and peers over, seeing Dervis frantically trying to get his attention. Government casts a big fishing rod into the water and hooks Dervis by the shirt, reeling him in.
"Oh, thank you, I thought I was a goner!" Dervis gasps, but Government doesn't respond, instead picking Dervis up and bringing him over to a barred off room on the ship. Government unceremoniously throws Dervis into the cell and slams the door shut. Inside of the cell with Dervis are Uzi and AlexMoses, both restrained, as well as Green Thumb, who was caught using his double identity to receive extra rewards from quests. Dervis runs up to the bars and rattles them, but Government doesn't return, resuming piloting the boat towards an island that has just now become visible over the horizon.
Meanwhile, Dumb Donald has been wandering around on his own. He glances around an empty parking lot while standing in the middle of it, scratching his head with one hand and picking his nose with the other. Suddenly, Donald is approached by Bush Boy.
"Have you any berries?" Bush Boy inquires, and Dumb Donald looks at him for a moment, thinking hard about the question. He takes his finger out of his nose, bringing with it a glistening glob of snot and holding it towards Bush Boy.
"This is not berry. However, is similar to beery. May I try?" Bush Boy asks, and Dumb Donald nods absentmindedly. Bush Boy leans in, and just as he's about to lick the booger, he and Donald are knocked away from each other by Repentimus, who rockets in, crashing aggressively into the ground. Repentimus then slings up onto a light post, swiveling his head around to listen to the surroundings. His attention locks on to an electronics store, where a display of TVs is playing a news report.
"...legendary hero irc…" the news report begins, prompting Repentimus to immediately sling over to the window and press his face against it to listen more intently. "...has been seen on Radion RR 5 dueling with a long-haired longswordsman. In other news-"
"No, no, NO! NOBODY CARES what other news you have! Stay on irc!" Repentimus demands, but the news reporters obviously don't respond to him, continuing their report as usual.
"...intergalactic bounty hunter Repentimus was caught switching the orientation of the mailbox flags in a nearby suburban neighborhood. We got this picture of him in the act." the screen shows an image of a man with an uncanny resemblance to Repentimus, albeit purple instead of red, flipping off the camera.
"NO! THAT'S NOT ME!" Repentimus screeches, banging his hands on the window, his face pressed so hard against the glass that it's beginning to leak sticky juice onto it. "HE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE ME!"
One of the reporters pauses to listen to someone who runs up next to them and whispers into their ear.
"This just in- we have a breaking news report that Repentimus has been sighted yet again, loitering outside of Videoshack and watching the TV display, presumably because he is too poor to afford his own television."
"WHAAAAAATTTT!" Repentimus screams, as the feed switches to a live feed from a news helicopter, showing Repentimus pressed up against the glass. Repentimus peels his face off the glass, leaving a red circular imprint on it, and whirls around, and sees that the previously empty parking lot has now amassed a huge crowd of spectators, including Harrdy, who has finally caught up to him. Harrdy gives Repentimus a disapproving head shake, while Repentimus blabbers and tries to explain himself to the onlookers.
Elsewhere, the man from the news, Expiratus, who strikingly resembles Repentimus other than his colors, watches the news on his phone while riding down the sidewalk on a tricycle. He chuckles to himself as he continues pedaling, glad to be receiving the extra attention even if it's entirely undeserved.
Meanwhile, in the Crypt, Quatch has been put on display as an exhibit, with various Crypt-dwellers showing up to draw mocking caricatures of him, which they then add to a big bulletin board on the wall opposite his holding cell. Other visitors choose instead to tickle him through the bars with long feathers, or throw circus peanuts at him from a big jar next to the entrance, which also serves as Quatch's only source of food. Currently, Rohan is deeply focused on drawing a still life of Quatch sitting in the corner of his cell sucking his thumb, enough so that he doesn't even notice when the door opens and a slow and powerful creature lumbers up beside him. After a few seconds, Rohan feels a hefty tap on his shoulder, and turns to see the Hashsquatch jogging in place next to him.
"What is it? Do you bring news from the outside?" Rohan asks, setting aside his sketchbook.
"Yes, but it's not good news. There's a bad man out there, calls himself Bahg." the Hashsquatch begins. Quatch recognizes the name and perks up in his cell, scuttling over to the bars and listening in on the conversation. "He…he captured La Chupita!"
The room goes silent as Quatch and Rohan simultaneously have their jaws drop. After a few seconds, Rohan speaks up again.
"La Chupita? Impossible, it disappears the moment your eyes are off of it!" Rohan responds, still in disbelief.
"I know! I know, it shouldn't be possible! But he did it anyways! He has some kinda camera that does horrible things! He took our baby!" the Hashsquatch cries out.
"Wait…I think I can help you guys." says Quatch, and Rohan and the Hashsquatch turn to face him. "Bahg and I…we go back."
