Loo Loo Land!

The episode opens to a shot of the exterior of Stolas's mansion at night, before cutting to the master bedroom where Stolas and Izzy are asleep. A young Octavia's frightened voice can be heard from offscreen.

"Mommy! Daddyyyy!" Young Octavia said offscreen.

Stolas is roused from his sleep. He turns to Izzy who has less amount of the blanket.

"Mmph. Via's calling us, Izzy." Stolas said sleepily.

"I'm up." Izzy said sleepily.

Stolas and Izzy sighs and gets out of bed. He enters Octavia's room, where she is hiding beneath her blankets.

"Via? What troubles you, our owlet?" Stolas and Izzy asked softly.

"Daddy! Daddy! Mommy! Mommy!" Young Octavia said sobbing.

Young Octavia climbs down from her bed and runs into her father and mother's arms. Stolas hoists her up to comfort her.

"I had a dream! A really bad dream!" Young Octavia said sobbing.

Izzy yawns and wipes away Octavia's tear, correcting her.

"A nightmare." Izzy said.

"I was looking all over the palace, and... I couldn't find you, Mommy or Annie anywhere! You weren't there!" Young Octavia said sobbing.

"There there, Via, it's okay. You're okay." Stolas said as he rubs Octavia's on the back comfortingly

Stolas summons his grimoire to him telekinetically as he walks Octavia back to bed.

"When you're scared, and you don't know where I am, you must remember..." Stolas said.

Stolas's grimoire floats over to him. He telekinetically flips it open.

"No matter what happens to us, we will never be far away... from our special little starfire." Stolas and Izzy said

Stolas and Izzy begins singing a lullaby to little Octavia.

"It always seems more quiet... in the dark." Stolas sang softly.

Stolas opens a portal above himself, Izzy and Octavia. She looks up in awe of the beauty of space through the portal.

"It always feels so stark... how silence grows under the moon." Izzy sang softly as well.

Stolas, Izzy and young Octavia float up through the portal and into the cosmos, landing on a barren moon.

"Constellations gone so soon." Izzy sang.

"I used to think that I was bold." Stolas sang.

Walking across the moon, Stolas and Izzy leaves footprints in the dust.

"I used to think love would be fun." Stolas and Izzy sang.

"Now, all my stories have been told. Except for one..." Izzy sang.

Stolas looks down at young Octavia, and she looks back with her large, curious eyes. Her gaze shifts to a pink glow to her side.

"As the stars start to align." Stolas sang.

"I hope you take it as a sign that you'll be okay." Izzy sang.

A meteor begins its descent towards a giant, pink colored star.

"Everything will be okay." Stolas and Izzy sang.

The meteor makes contact with the pink star, and begins to sink beneath the molten surface.

"And if the Seven Rings collapse." Izzy sang.

Multiple planetary bodies begin gravitating toward the pink star, including the moon that Stolas Izzy and Octavia currently reside on, which eventually shatters into pieces as the star's gravity pulls on it.

"Although, the day could be my last. You will be okay." Stolas sang.

Young Octavia yawns and falls asleep contentedly against her father's chest and held her mother's hand.

"When I'm gone, you'll be okay..." Stolas sang again.

Distant planetary bodies fly through the cosmos, pulled in by the pink star's incredible gravitational pull. They disintegrate upon impact and causes the star to explode in a powerful supernova just as the portal closes behind Stolas causing him to sing louder.

"And when Creation goes to die." Stolas and Izzy sang.

"You can find me in the sky." Stolas sang.

"Upon the last day." Izzy sang.

Stolas and Izzy drapes the sleeping Octavia in a blanket.

"And you will be okay..." Stolas and Izzy sang.

Their lullaby finished, Stolas and Izzy leaves as their young daughter settles to sleep, content. Cut to several years later, where a teenage Octavia is jolted awake by her baby sisters giggles. Octavia chuckles.

| In the kitchen |

Izzy was holding her daughter, Mary.

Mary was giggling happily. Stolas smiled and kissed her head.

Octavia walked in happily.

"Good mooorning, Octavia! Did you sleep well, our owlet?" Stolas asked. "Sissy!" Mary said happily.

"I slept well, Dad!" Octavia said as she now held Mary in her arms.

"You know what I haven't done in a long, loooong time? I haven't taken you to your favorite place in all of Hell! Why don't we go to Loo Loo Land?" Stolas said.

"Really???" Octavia asked happily.

"Of course! You always were so happy when I took you to Loo Loo Land! What do you say we go there again, have a day, all of us?" Stolas asked.

"You want me, Mary and the others to tag along?" Izzy asked.

Stolas nods. "Of course!"

"There we go! Anything but staying in this house. Now, I'll arrange our security." Stolas said as he picks up a phone carried on a platter by his now bruised and battered servant.

"Security for a theme park?" Octavia questions confused, Mary tilts her head confused as well, while Izzy knew what was coming next and chuckled.

"We are rich, and we're hot. People want our money and our bodies!" Stolas said. Izzy giggles at his comment.

"Our money, maybe." Octavia said under her breathe with a smile, as Izzy giggles at her.

"Speak for yourself, princess. Now... I'm calling the only man who can f*** me!" Stolas said as Izzy facepalmed, but she was blushing madly, because she was a part of the fucking.

"What...?" Octavia asked shocked.

"Who can protect me! Us! Being part of the Goetia family is rather valuable, you know. And since we have a baby with us, extra protection." Stolas said immediately backpedaling.

Octavia groans and pulls her beanie down over her eyes, but she was smiling slightly

| At I.M.P |

Cut to I.M.P Headquarters, where Blitzo and Annabella is busy doing very important work in his office, involving crude representations of Millie and Moxxie made out of office supplies that he puppets around and speaks with. Between them is a framed photo of Blitzo with a robe pulled down off his shoulders seductively and a flower between his teeth. The text reads "#1 Bitch" with "BOSS" written in red over it.

"Oh, Blitzo! You're such a good boss!" Blitzo said impersonating Millie. "Yeah, I really want you, sir." He then said impersonating Millie. "Me, too!" Blitzo said impersonating Millie again. "Let's three-way!" Blitzo said as himself.

Blitzo lowers his "employees" below his desk to crotch level, looking momentarily pleasured before being interrupted by the ringing of his Hellphone.

"WHAT?!" Blitzo yelled angrily.

Annabella laughs.

"Why, hello, my big-dicked Blitzy." Stolas said lustfully.

Both Blitzo and Octavia spit out their coffee in sheer surprise. Izzy burst out laughing, while Mary tilts her head confused. Blitzo slams his "BOSS BITCH" mug onto his desk.

"What--" Blitzo said.

"the--" Octavia said.

"FUCK--" Blitzo said.

"Dad?!" Octavia said.

"Language, everyone! I have a special request~" Stolas said out loud at first, then said into the phone.

"Aw... Look, I just had a chemical peel. So, you'll have to find someone else's face to plant that feathered ass." Blitzo said.

"It's for my daughter. And our little Mary as well." Stolas said as he smiled as Izzy was throwing Mary in the air and catching her. Octavia was laughing happily.

"Ah. Well, make sure she washes it. And make sure Mary's safe." Blitzo said.

"No! No, no-no-no. I'm taking my daughter to Loo Loo Land, and I was hoping you brave little Imps would accompany us!" Stolas said taken aback at what Blitzo said.

"We're assassins, not bodyguards, 'kay? Don't invite us to shit unless someone's gonna die." Blitzo said.

"I'll pay you~" Stolas said in a sing song voice.

"Pay me what?" Blitzo asked confused and curious.

"Moneyyyy~" Stolas said in a sing song voice again.

"Done!" Blitzo said quickly.

"I knew he'd agree to that." Izzy said in the background since she was still with Stolas, Mary and Octavia.

Blitzo hangs up and accidentally slams his phone down on the desk hard enough to smash it to pieces. After a brief annoyed glance at it, he pulls out a megaphone.

"M n' M, get in here! We're goin' to Loo Loo Land!" Blitzo shouted for Moxxie and Millie.

Moxxie opens the door to respond.

"Loo Loo Land?" Moxxie asked confused.

Millie excitedly smashes her head straight through the office door's glass.

"Loo Loo Land?!" Millie asked excitedly as she had sparkles in her eyes.

"Loo Loo Land!" Blitzo shouted excitedly.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!!" Loona shouted off-screen not wanting to hear this.

| Time skip |

Cut to Loo Loo Land. A van with an I.M.P decal spray painted on the side pulls into the rather empty parking lot. Moxxie exits the van and opens the side door. A very cramped Stolas extracts himself excitedly. His daughter exits the van just as excited.

"Now, remember this is work and work only. Me and my crew are not here to satisfy your perverted bird needs, alright?" Blitzo said.

"Blitz, be nice, he's just here to bring us here to have fun with the kids." Izzy said as she held Mary on her hip and held Annabella's hand.

"Okay, yeah. Hold on right there, sweetie." Blitzo said turning to Stolas. "If you try fuckin' my little ass in that park, I swear to--"

"You are so cute when you are serious!" Stolas said

Octavia laughed and held Annabella in her arms

"Wooooow! I haven't been to this place since I was a tot!" Millie said excitedly.

A large letter falls off the sign of a nearby ride, crushing the teenaged imp underneath.

"It hasn't changed a bit. Ohhh! LOOK! It's Big Woobly!" Millie said.

Millie gestures toward a hideously malformed animatronic dinosaur, which opens its mouth and lets out a terrifying, demonic shriek.

"That is... deeply upsetting." Moxxie said.

"Oh, come on! It's fun! You've never been here?" Millie asked confused.

"No. Theme parks always disturbed me, especially the mascots." Moxxie said.

The park's mascot, Loo Loo appears out of nowhere behind Moxxie.

"Well, hey there!" Loo Loo said.

"AAAAAH!!" Moxxie screams as she jumps back in terror

"I'm Loo Loo! Welcome to Loo Loo Land! If y'all get hurt here, just try and sue us!" Moxxie said.

"Look! Via! It's Loo Loo!" Stolas said as he pointed to the mascot.

"I have a question." Octavia asked as she smirks a little.

"Well, ask away, little girlie! A-hyuk a-hyuk a-hyuk!" Loo Loo said as he will happily answer the question.

"Is it true this park is just a really shameless spin-off of Lucifer's far more popular Lu Lu World?" Octavia asked smirking.

"No?" Loo Loo said questionably beat.

"This place reeks of insecure corporate shame." Octavia said as Izzy nods.

Stolas chuckles nervously as he leads Octavia away.

"Why don't we go check out the rides?" Stolas asked his daughter as he, Izzy, Mary and Annabella walked away.

"That chick's creepy, huh?" Loo asked turning to Blitzo

"Eh, wait till her dad tries to diddle your holes." Blitzo said following after them.

"What's that mean?" Loo Loo asked turning to Millie and Moxxie.

"Don't talk to me! I know you're a pervert under there!" Moxxie hissed at Loo Loo.

Moxxie leaves, leading Millie off with him. Loo Loo hangs his body dejectedly.

"Yeah..." Loo Loo said softly.

Moxxie and Millie head down a pathway, and Moxxie, sweating profusely, stops to catch his composure.

"You really like this place, huh?" Moxxie asked his wife.

"I love this place! My parents would bring me and my siblings here when they could swing it. Money-wise." Millie said smiling.

Moxxie looks over to see a worker wheeling a wheelbarrow piled to the brim with money into a nearby giftshop. The two approach the window, where novelty cups and stuffed apples are for sale. The cups appear to cost at least 29 souls per.

"Yeaaaah. The prices do seem rather criminal. I mean, that much for a novelty cup that you use one time?" Moxxie asked.

"'Cause, it's Loo Loo Land!" Millie said excitedly.

Blitzo walks up, having loaded up on merch, including a novelty cup, as well as a hat with attached can holders and straws.

"Listen to your hoe, Mox." Blitzo said as he nudged Moxxie with a cup.

Blitzo takes a swig from his novelty cup.

"How 'bout I take the first watch while you two have a little..." Blitzo said taking his sunglasses off with a wink. "Fun?" He finished.

"OOOOOH! We gotta do my favorite ride!" Millie said running off with Moxxie.

"Oh, yeah? Wh- which one?" Moxxie asked nervously.

Cut to a shot of a lone imp riding a roller coaster named "The Lawsuit" that suddenly plunges off a sheer 90-degree drop at incredible speed while also on fire and with its rider hanging on for dear life. The coaster violently plunges into a tunnel in the ground.

"Oh, crumbs!" Moxxie said absolutely terrified.

Cut to Moxxie vomiting into a trash can after having left the ride. A vomit-covered family walks by in the background, glaring disapprovingly at Moxxie. A massive dragon-like creature from the nearby petting zoo looms overhead, also glaring at Moxxie.

| Somewhere else |

In another part of the park, Stolas, Mary, Annabella, Izzy and Octavia walk along the path, as Blitzo takes up positions all around them with his rifle, on the lookout for any danger. A group of imps creep up behind the booths, ropes, knives, and pitchforks at the ready. They quickly scatter as Blitzo looks in their direction.

"You know, it's quite thrilling to see you on the job, Blitzy." Stolas said stroking Blitzo's horn as Izzy held Mary in one arm and held Annabella's hand.

"Save it, bitch. I'm working." Blitzo said to Stolas as Izzy giggled.

"You both need to get a room." Octavia teased.

"Hey, me and Izz are not day-hookers!" Blitzo said

A woman walking nearby with her baby glares at Blitzo before continuing on in a huff.

"What? I just said I'm not one, prude!" Blitzo said flipping her off.

"Oh! Look, Via! Annabella!" Stolas said gasping.

Stolas points excitedly at the circus tent. A demon mother is struggling to pull her crying son into the tent.

"You two used to cry such tears of joy at this show!" Stolas said smiling.

"Oh, no..." Octavia and Annabella said panicked.

| Flashback |

Cut to a flashback to Octavia as a young girl, Annabella as a baby, as they are pushed against the stage by an excited crowd of imp children, as Robo Fizz sparks and cackles maniacally leering over Octavia and Annabella, who soon breaks into tears. A younger Blitzo is seen in the background tending to a food cart, dressed and painted as a clown, scowling.

| Flashback over |

Cut back to the present.

"I hate that fucking clown." Blitzo, Octavia, and Annabella said together as Izzy frowned behind them holding Mary.

Pan to Stolas, who has been captured and hoisted aloft by the crew of imps from earlier. Stolas' arms are bound, and his head is covered by a cloth sack, and the imps are pointing various weapons at him. One has stolen Stolas' wallet.

"Oh, Blitzy~ I need my bodyguard, please!" Stolas said unconcerned, and Izzy frowned more.

One imp jumped, to try and skewer Stolas with a pitchfork. Blitzo quickly brings his rifle to bear, shooting the imp in the torso, splattering Stolas's head with blood. The other imps quickly scatter.

Octavia enters the big top and finds a seat holding Annabella as Izzy held Mary and sat with them. Blitzo carries Stolas in, head still covered in the blood-soaked sack, sets him down, and walks off to take position. Stolas makes no move to remove the sack, until Octavia annoyedly rips it off her father's head.

"Hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyyy, Implings! It's me, the Robotic Fizzarolli! Shipped from Big Ozzie's factory to bring you a wonderful show celebrating Loo Loo Land, spelled with Os, to avoid lawsuits! H-H-H-H-H-Hit it!" Robo Fizz said glitching and sparking.

Stage lights turn on and point at Robo Fizz as he begins to dance and sing a song of the same name as the park.

"Loo Loo Land, Loo Loo Land!" Robo Fizz sang.

The curtains open to reveal Robo Fizz's band, Fizzarolli 'n Friends, composed of various hideously decrepit animatronics, including Big Woobly on guitar.

"Everybody sing along with the Loo Loo band." Robo Fizz sang.

Robo Fizz goes around pointing and gesturing at various demons in the audience. Stolas looks excited when Robo Fizz gets to him, but this is short-lived as Blitzo pops up and points his rifle at Robo Fizz, who dashes back to the stage.

"Ev'ry boy, ev'ry girl, ev'ry woman, ev'ry man loves Loo Loo Laaand!" Robo Fizz sings.

Platforms in the stage rise up in time with the music.

"Loo Loo Land, Loo Loo Land!
Everything is beautiful at Loo Loo Land
Ugly children holdin' hands in Loo Loo Laaand!"
Robo Fizz sang.

Robo Fizz grabs various Imp children out of the audience and wraps them up in a big hug, before jumping up and tossing them away. Most of the children slam into the bleachers, while one soars behind them.

"Everybody's friendly." Robo Fizz sang.

Robo Fizz hugs Big Woobly so hard that its neck breaks a bit more than it already had been.

"And nobody is mean." Robo Fizz sang.

Robo Fizz dashes over to the two-headed, banjo-playing bear animatronic and slaps it in the back. The animatronic then squirts a stream of oil from its bigger head at the face of an Imp in the bleachers attempting to drown out the song with music from his phone.

"No copyright infringement's ever seeen." Robo Fizz sang.

Robo Fizz dumps a gasoline canister onto a large stack of cease-and-desist papers, lights a match, and throws the match and the canister at the stack, setting the whole thing ablaze.

"I have a dream..." Robo Fizz sang.

"(He has a dream)" A backup singer sang.

"I'm here to tell..." Robo Rizz sang.

"(He's here to tell)" A backup singer sang.

"About a magical, fantastic place called Loo Loo Laaaaand!" Robo Fizz sang.

Octavia and Annabella are sitting and absorbing the musical with disgusted boredom, with Izzy rubbing their backs as Mary cuddled into Octavia. Outside, Moxxie and Millie walk along a row of game booths, when they are addressed by one of the vendors. Millie gleefully yanks Moxxie over towards the booth.

"Hello, hello! Step right up and win a thing!" A carnie imp said.

"Oh, look, Moxxie! A THING!" Millie said gasping excitedly.

The "thing" in question is some sort of purple stuffed penguin creature with Imp horns, wearing pink overalls. The stuffed animal is labeled with a tag that says "THING?"

"Oh, you like that thing?" Moxxie asked his wife.

"YEEEEESSS! I don't really know what that thing is, but I want that thing!" Millie said happily.

"Ahhh... Finally, something I can handle." Moxxie said smugly.

Moxxie takes out some money and hands it to the carnie.

"Okay! One game, puh-lease!" Moxxie said confidently.

The carnie Imp rolls his eyes and uses his tail to hand Moxxie a pistol with a cork projectile in the muzzle. Moxxie does not even line up the shot, instead looking to his wife as he effortlessly hits the target right in the bullseye. Unbeknownst to Moxxie, the target barely moves. He makes a "ricochet" noise with his mouth and blows the black powder smoke clear of the gun, pleased with his marksmanship.

"Ohhhh! Strike one, little man!" The carnie imp said.

"But, I hit it!" Moxxie said annoyed.

"Hmmm, I don't know what to tell ya, buddy. The target, see? It didn't go down. So, yeah...! No go, bro." The carnie imp said.

Moxxie growls in anger, and fishes another bill out of his pocket. He grabs the pistol and fires another cork, hitting the target dead-center. The target does not budge. Moxxie slaps the pistol in annoyance.

"The Heaven's wrong with this thing?!" Moxxie said.

"Oh, man. A real shame, I tell ya." The carnie imp said before mockingly cries.

Moxxie hisses in anger as he slaps another bill on the counter.

"Another!" Moxxie said pissed.

| Meanwhile |

Cut back to the Robo Fizz show. Stolas is gleefully clapping to the music, while Octavia has thrown her head back in torment, banging her fist on the seat next to her. Annabella and Mary had their faces buried in Izzy's chest.

"--body sing along with the Loo Loo band! Ev'ry boy, ev'ry girl, ev'ry woman, ev'ry man loves Loo Loo Laaaaaaand!" Robo Fizz and the backup singer sang.

The show ends with a small pyrotechnic display as Robo Fizz cackles maniacally. The bear animatronic faceplants onto the stage and falls to pieces. Stolas claps and cheers even harder. Izzy sighed as she held Mary and Annabella close.

"Ah hohohoho ho ho ho ho ho, how delightful!" Stolas said happily.

Behind Stolas, an imp armed with a kris dagger rises from beneath the seats ready to stab Stolas, but the top of his head is quickly blown apart by a shot from Blitzo, who has taken up a position in the gallery behind the back row of seats while Imps scream in absolute fear and run away.

"Oh, my! What aim you have, Blitzy." Stolas said flirtatiously and Izzy frowned again, she wasn't getting love.

"Ugh! I can't do this anymore!" Octavia said furious as she wanted to come here as a family, not to listen her dad listen flirt with her mom's boyfriend.

"Wait- Uh-... Octavia!" Stolas concerned.

Octavia storms off, with Annabella and Mary, with Stolas following behind as Blitzo cycles his rifle, and prepares to give chase after his charges. Izzy walked with him.

"Mua ha ha ha ha hoho-oh! Is that Blitzo my sensors spot up the-e-e-ere? I bet the kiddies are still running away from you, huh?" Robo Fizz said before he laughs.

"The 'o' is silent now!" Blitzo yelled as Izzy rolled her eyes.

"A-A-Awwwww, just like your audience always was when you to-told your lazy jokes here!" Robo Fizz said before he laughs.

Blitzo removes his visors and throws them on the ground as he continues his argument with Robo Fizz. Izzy just watched with a bored expression.

"Bitch, I make more money with my girlfriend, killing people than you do being a cheap ass robo ripoff of an overrated sellout JESTER!" Blitzo said to Robo Fizz.

"Oohoohoo! Someone's salty! Real or not, though, people lo-o-ove me! Does anybody love you..." Robo Fizz said glitching before lowering his voice to sound demonic. "BLITZ-0?" Robo Fizz finished.

"No. But, I'm really good with guns now. Dance, bitch!" Blitzo said.

"Blitz!" Izzy said surprised.

Blitzo slams a new magazine into his rifle, switches it to full-auto and opens up on Robo Fizz, who cartwheels out of the way of the incoming rounds. Robo Fizz rapidly spins like a wheel rolling up the stair to where Blitzo is. He coils himself around Blitzo and Izzy like a snake, before using his own momentum to launch Blitzo and Izzy through the top of the tent.

"Ohhhh, FUCK MEEEEEEE...!" Blitzo shouts as Izzy screams.

| Outside |

Outside, Wally Wackford rolls a cart of lit torches in by the tent.

"Torches, I say, I say! Get your inconvenient torches here!" Wally Wackford said.

Blitzo and Izzy lands on the cart, scattering the torches everywhere, which light the big top on fire.

"Owww! I say, OWWWW!" Wally Wackford said.

The green fire very rapidly spreads to all corners of the park. Burning and melting animatronics flee the tent as Robo Fizz cackles and spins his head with demonic glee at the destruction. Elsewhere, the carnie Imp at the shooting gallery holds 600 souls of Moxxie's money, with Moxxie himself glaring at him with seething anger.

"Wow! Man, you're really starting to make this sad. Y'know, if you suck, you suck! Guess you won't win your honey here a prize..." The carnie imp said.

"Let me try!" Millie said.

Millie grabs the pistol and fires a cork at a target, which misses wildly. The carnie Imp grins mischievously, and presses a foot pedal in the booth, which causes a target to fall down.

"Ohhhh, look at that! Lucky shot, baby." The carnie imp said.

"Are you kidding me?! You- you- you charlatan!" Moxxie said annoyed.

"Hey, uh, get lost, pipsqueak. I'm talkin' to the lady~" The carnie imp said.

The carnie Imp leans toward Millie and makes a seductive purring sound at her. Millie immediately recoils in disgust. In the background, Blitzo, Izzy and Robo Fizz continue to do battle against each other as the fires spread. Blitzo and Izzy are thrown up into the air by Robo Fizz and comes down through the roof of the shooting gallery, crushing the carnie Imp under him.

"OWWWW! Oof! Auuugh!" The carnie imp said in pain.

"Sir?! Izzy?!" Moxxie said surprised.

"Ohhhh...Hey, guys! You should probably go, uh, make sure Stolas, Annie and Mary are okay. We've... got some unfinished business to take care of." Blitzo said dazed

Blitzo draws his flintlock pistol, Izzy doing the same, cocks them, and fires at the now burning Robo Fizz. The impact of the bullet spins Robo Fizz's head around, but when he spins his head back, he is revealed to be unharmed by the shot, having caught the bullet in his teeth. He then spits the bullet out.

"Oh, what a mouth!" Izzy said

Blitzo immediately grimaces when he realizes what Izzy just said. Robo Fizz coils himself up into his rolling form again, charging straight at Blitzo and Izzy. They leaps out of the way as their enemy hit the booth, destroying it in a large explosion. Several pieces of shrapnel and burning prizes shoot in all direction, as the camera follows the severed heads of three of the "things" Moxxie attempted to win. The piece of stuffed animal strikes a young Imp boy in the head, knocking him unconscious the second a photographer takes a picture of the Imp family.

"Goddammit, Nathan! You ruined another bloody photo! Why were you even born?!" A father said to his child.

| Somewhere |

Elsewhere, Stolas is still running after his daughters and Annabella.

"Octavia? Mary? Annabella?" Stolas asked.

"Just leave us alone!" Octavia said offscreen.

"Octavia! Mary! Annabella!" Stolas said.

Octavia runs into a building, with Mary and Annabella called the "Fun House." Inside, Stolas is confronted with a surreal room of eyes, tubes, spikes, mirrors, and disembodied hands. He goes further into the room, looking around for where his daughters and Annabella could have gone. A shadow appears behind Stolas, as a random Imp jumps upon his back.

"Umm, I think I'm supposed to be bodyguarded right now!" Stolas said annoyed.

The Imp covers Stolas' mouth with his shirt sleeve but is suddenly shot in the head and falls to the ground. Moxxie and Millie appear in the entryway, Millie having just shot the Imp with a pistol.

"Ugh, that's better. Where is Blitzy and Izzy? They're my knights in shining armor, not you littler ones." Stolas said wiping the imp's blood off his sleeve annoyed.

"They're, uhhhh... busy." Millie said nervously.

"Being fools." Moxxie said.

"What kind of fools?" Stolas asked confused

"The "everything is now on fire" kind." Moxie said not interested.

Disinterested, Stolas leaves the imps, effortlessly dodging between two swinging pendulums, and heads down a tunnel into an adjoining room. There, he sees Octavia, Mary and Annabella riding in circles in apple-themed rail cars, crying.

"Octavia...Mary...Annabella." Stolas said softly.

Stolas discards the Loo Loo Land hat, which in response to his emotional state has gone from a goofy grin to a sad frown.

"I take it you are... not having fun." Stolas said softly.

"I didn't even want to come here! I only did for Mary and Annie!" Octavia said crying as Annabella and Mary held onto her.

"I'm sorry, sweetie. I... I thought you loved it here." Stolas said sadly.

"When I was a kid and my parents didn't hate each other... and my dad didn't flirt with some... weird red dickhead the entire time and flirting with mom." Octavia said sniffling as she vividly remembers her birth mother, Stella.

"I'm sorry, Via. I'm sorry for... everything... happening right now. I know it's... a lot. I, uh-- I should have listened." Stolas said softly.

"I just want to go home... but home doesn't even feel like home anymore... You ruined it." Octavia said crying.

"You need to understand... your mother and I... I just-... I felt-... She's always been... I haven't been- Ha-... We weren't in... I'm sorry, I- I- I don't have the words." Stolas said as he couldn't find the right words.

"Bitch?" Annabella asked and Stolas chuckled a little and nods.

"Are you gonna run off with him? And leave me behind? Go away where... I can't find you?" Octavia asked crying still and Mary and Annabella looked up at her sadly.

"What? No! No, no, never. I'd never do that. Never. I think it's time to leave this place. You were right. You are too old for it, anyway." Stolas said emphatically.

Stolas carries Octavia, Mary and Annabella out of the Fun House, as an imp grins maniacally in the space above the drop-ceiling, looking down on Stolas. The imp drops down and flicks open a switchblade. Stolas immediately turns around, eyes glowing brightly. The Imp immediately turns to stone and is knocked over by a pendulum. Outside, the park has been reduced to pandemonium as dusk falls. Millie attempts to shoot at Robo Fizz, who rolls around wildly. The robot is caught by the draconic creature from before, and swallowed whole, as Moxxie rides on its back. Stolas, Mary, Annabella and Octavia leave the park gates.

"So, what would you like to do now?" Stolas asked them.

"Oh, can we go to Stylish Occult? They sell weird taxidermy there." Octavia asked as Mary and Annabella had puppy dog eyes.

"Hmmm, okayyyyy..." Stolas said reluctantly.

"Thanks, dad. You're okay, sometimes." Octavia said chuckling.

"Thank you, Via. Thank you." Stolas said smiling as Mary and Annabella hug him happily.

A massive explosion rocks the park, sending the employees of I.M.P. hurtling through the air, smoking and screaming. All four land in front of Stolas, Mary, Annabella and Octavia. Izzy grunts as she sat up.

"Mama!" Mary and Annabella said worried.

"Way to ruin another good thing, sir!" Moxxie said.

"Worth it! That slutty toy clown had. It. Comin'!" Blitzo said confidently.

Moxxie and Blitzo fall unconscious. A stray Quieve grabs Millie by the hair and drags her offscreen.
