[00:29] -[Zooble]: Oh, shut up. I think I overheard him talking to Bubble and I'm not gonna be part of it.
[00:42] -And... you're just gonna hang out in a flower pot all day? -[Zooble]: Caine's been checking up on my room lately. When I don't answer, he just starts singing "Daisy Bell"
[00:54] -Does he really do that? -[Zooble]: You [BOINK!] [BANG!]hole! -[Zooble]: [BOINK!] you! -Ah, there you are!
[01:08] -[Zooble]: [grunts] -And I'm glad I found you. [overlapping voices] TEAM adventure! let's say 5.7 minutes.
[01:24] You didn't even ask him about the singing thing. -Today's adventure is... gonna be a bit of a short one, But it'll be a perfect opportunity
[01:40] -This is so heavy. -That's right, Bubble. really got me thinking. But with cool new sports
[01:54] -Uh, we could also just play softball normally this time. -In the Caine Leagues, we have the 400 Meter Vertical Skedaddle,
[02:06] Lateral Hijinks, Orange Sport, Run Walk, and Ball Ball! I'm not gonna be on a team with that one. -[blows kiss]
[02:21] I never know what you want! -Yeah, Zooble and I constantly say -Did you really not like my softball one?

[03:02] -[Zooble]: Do you have any of that stupid sauce left? How teamwork is essential to making the dream work! -You are in a mood today, aren't you?
[03:18] It makes an "ass" -[Zooble]: "Ming"? -Did Caine just say [BOINK]?"
[03:30] what your assumptions have done to my reputation. -Whatever the case, it's evident now So, maybe what we actually need to do are trust exercises!
[03:47] -Don't worry -- this will be a two-way trust exercise, [snap!] [shwing!]
[03:59] where nobody can see or hear you once inside. -Character A will take the gun into the private room then come out and give it to Character B.
[04:15] and shoot themselves in the head, Character A will also have to trust so everyone is incentivized to follow the rules
[04:30] -[Zooble]: Sounds a little convoluted. -[Zooble]: Wh-- Him?! [rewound audio warbling]
[04:46] -[yelps] Here, have guns. I don't care anymore. "Here's guns, and have fun"?
[05:00] -[Zooble]: It's just a little aimless. We're bringing teams back. Last team surviving is the winner.
[05:13] -Well, that's not my problem right now. so you guys are gonna have to handle yourselves for a bit. Once that's up, it's a free-for-all.
[05:30] I'm... actually gonna be on a team with Zooble. We've been together for every team adventure in the past. -[grumbles]
[05:46] -Uh, oh! I-I'd love to, but -- Well, uh, I really don't want Kinger to get stuck with Jax. Well, I-I could be on Kinger's team.

[10:21] The villain? -[scoffs] I see how far I can push things, You wanna know why?
[10:33] I do everything 'cause it's funny! -"The funny one"? -Yeah! Kinger's the crazy one,
[10:46] and you are the one who hasn't figured that out yet. I at least have the self-awareness to choose who I am.
[10:58] No better chance than now to try something new. You wanna finally work off those weeks of rage and anguish I know you hate it here.
[11:13] But the silver lining is you can pretty much do whatever you want. Just let loose!
