Ralsei: "If we keep going, the Dark Fountain should be..."
Susie: "Hey, Ralsei!"
Susie: "You're not gonna BELIEVE what I did after our adventure yesterday."
Susie: "After we saved the WORLD, I went over Kris's..."
Susie: "Almost baked an ENTIRE pie..."
Susie: "And then marathoned movies ALL NIGHT!"
Ralsei: "Aww, Susie! It sounds like you had a wonderful time!"
Susie: "Yeah, it wasn't AWFUL, I guess..."
Ralsei: "I want to hear all about it..."
Ralsei: "Um, let's just get going, first."
Susie: "Oh, uh, yeah!"
*(Ralsei joins the party. They walk on.)*
Susie: "Anyway, so I've been thinking..."
Susie: "About some of those movies last night."
Susie: "Think YOU could survive BLOOD CRUSHERS 2, Ralsei?"
Ralsei: "Haha, umm, I don't know, I've never seen a movie..."
Susie: "Heh, really?"
Susie: "Would you want to?"
Ralsei: "H... huh?"
Susie: "Y'know. Come watch next time. Movies."
Ralsei: "Oh...! That would... be nice, wouldn't it?"
Susie: "... and then, like..."
Susie: "It doesn't have to just be movies, y'know."
Susie: "You could even... like, go to the library with us."
Susie: "Then we could get him to do our homework, right, Kris?"
Ralsei: "I..."
Ralsei: "I'd... love to do your homework, Susie!"
Susie: "... Ralsei..."
Ralsei: "I'd like nothing more than to go, Susie..."
Ralsei: "But... I..."
Susie: "But you... what?"
Ralsei: "I..."
Ralsei: "I... don't think I could."
Susie: "Heh, yeah, I mean, it was..."
Susie: "The Festival's kinda stupid, y'know? I mean, Obviously."
Susie: "Just... uh..."
Susie: "I mean, we don't even have to play any games."
Susie: "We could... just make a mess. Cause some trouble."
Susie: "Just..."
Susie: "I dunno, could be... fun if you..."
Susie: "... just went, you know?"
Ralsei: "No, Susie... I..."
Ralsei: "I... want to, I just..."
Ralsei: "I can't go."
Susie: "Uhh... why?"
Ralsei: "Because I... Because we..."
Ralsei: "..."
Ralsei: "Susie, it's... hard for me to explain this, but..."
[Scene: Obj Ralsei Story]
*(The scene darkens, and Ralsei begins his story.)*
[Scene: Obj Ralsei Story]
*(The scene begins on the purple bridge. Suzy and Ralzey are facing each other, Kris is a little apart. Ralzey looks upset.)*
Ralsei: "Because I... Because we..."
Ralsei: "..."
Ralsei: "Susie, it's... hard for me to explain this, but..."
*(The screen slowly darkens. Ralsey's story begins, accompanied by visual images.)*
*(A room from the Light World appears on the screen at dusk. There is a chair covered with a sheet in the center, a bed on the right, a shelf and two posters on the wall.)*
Ralsei: "You see, Susie. You and Kris live in the "Light World.""
Ralsei: "A place where everything is as you see."
*(The room brightens, then darkens again.)*
Ralsei: "That is... as long as there's light."
*(The room is plunged into darkness. Objects lose their clear outlines, turning into vague, ominous silhouettes.)*
Ralsei: "You see, when it gets dark..."
Ralsei: "Things become more indistinct."
Ralsei: "A chair can look like a monster."
Ralsei: "A poster can look like it's moving."
Ralsei: "Your eyes can't see the truth anymore."
*(The room is completely plunged into pitch darkness.)*
Ralsei: "And when the light runs out..."
Ralsei: "You see nothing."
Ralsei: "Of course, your mind can't make anything of nothing."
*(A column of green energy begins to radiate from the center of the screen, looking like a Dark Fountain that is getting brighter.)*
Ralsei: "But what if?"
Ralsei: "What if it became even darker?"
Ralsei: "Darker than dark."
Ralsei: "What if we could take away the light that wasn't there"
Ralsei: "Until we reached another side?"
*(The screen flashes and the darkness dissipates. An abstract image appears: a black Amalgam cat with yellow-pink eyes and a Cheshire smile (Image_Friend) with a white outline, hands sticking together next to it. There are other shapes in the room, like eyes in the walls, and a flowing river)*
Ralsei: "If that were to happen..."
Ralsei: "You could start to see things again."
Ralsei: "And hear them."
Ralsei: "And feel them."
*(The scene changes to a psychedelic landscape with purple grass and red trees. Two snake-like creatures with candles appear.)*
Ralsei: "That is the Dark World, Susie."
Ralsei: "An alternate view of reality through the lens of shadow."
Ralsei: "In other words..."
*(The screen flashes white. An image of a classroom appears from the Bright World, littered with playing cards, chess pieces, and other objects.)*
Ralsei: "The Dark Fountains change everything into a fantasy."
*(The scene changes again, showing a Dark World. Ordinary objects turn into living creatures: a playing card becomes a Lancer, a laptop becomes a Queen, and other objects become their subjects.)*
Ralsei: "In the Light World, in reality..."
Ralsei: "Lancer is just an average playing card."
Ralsei: "Queen... is just a laptop."
*(The characters of the Dark World disappear, turning back into inanimate objects in the classroom.)*
Ralsei: "In other words... when the lights come back on..."
Ralsei: "This world is no longer "real"."
Ralsei: "The places you go, the people you meet... none of them are."
Ralsei: "Even I, the one telling you this... I too, am..."
*(The scene returns to the bridge. Suzy grabs Ralzey by the shoulders.)*
Susie: "But Ralsei, how can you say you're not real!?"
Susie: "I can see you... I can feel you... I can hear you..."
Susie: ""Normal objects" don't have... feelings and stuff!"
Ralsei: "That's right, Susie."
Ralsei: "They... shouldn't."
Ralsei: "That's why... I don't want you and Kris..."
Ralsei: "... to worry too much about us, OK?"
Ralsei: "Just forget about us and make some real friends, okay?"
Susie: "..."
Susie: "... Ralsei... you..."
Susie: "You idiot! How can you SAY that?!"
Susie: "You think I could just FORGET"
Susie: "Forget"
Susie: "Forget Lancer!? Forget everyone!?"
Susie: "I don't care what you say you are..."
Susie: "You're real to me,"
Susie: "You're real to me, OK!?"
Ralsei: "..."
Ralsei: "Susie, I..."
Ralsei: "I'm happy to hear that, but..."
Susie: "SHUT UP and listen to me!"
Susie: "No matter what you say..."
Susie: "No matter what you are..."
Susie: "Me... you... Kris... We're a TEAM, alright?"
Susie: "None of us are gonna forget each other!"
Susie: "So please..."
Susie: "Jus"
Susie: "Just..."
Susie: "..."
Susie: "... just..."
*(The scene is abruptly interrupted. Susie and Ralsei are under a spotlight. Applause and confetti sound.)*
Announcer: "Wow, what an AMAZING performance!!!"

Now the player can chop down cacti. Then he enters an ice zone, where he fights enemies and reaches LV4. (The player can even destroy trees). After that, the player looks for a place on the map where there are trees instead of a wall and enters a pseudo-infinite forest. The player must chop down trees and move to 'Adjacent cells' until they find a red chest containing the Ice-key.)*

*UNLOCKED WITH THE ICE KEY*
*(The hero uses the Ice Key obtained in the previous game session. The door opens, and he enters an ice dungeon.)*

Mr. Tenna (in-game): "Keeping poor TORIEL all locked up..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "If only HE hadn't abandoned me."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "My old partner..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "I was gonna put him on TV! Make him a STAR!"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "I gave him everything! Everything I had! My life advice!"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "All. He had. To do. Was tell me what his little secret was."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "His secret to being a BIG SHOT..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "It took a little sweet talk..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "But just when I had, finally, finally? Ha ha -"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "Gotten him to sign the deal."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "He suddenly had to take a phone call."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "But when he picked it up, his face turned pale..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "And he ran right out of the room with the receiver..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "So I went to pick it up..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "Thinking it was finally my chance to be a BIG SHOT."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "But there was nobody there!"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "That little freak RIPPED ME OFF!"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "I wish they never brought that laptop home..."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "K... Kris! Kris, I didn't see you there!"
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "I... I did what you said, Kris! Ha... just like our deal."
Mr. Tenna (in-game): "Y-you aren't gonna turn me off again, are you...?"
*(The hero attacks and defeats the in-game copy of Tenna, as it is the only way to proceed.)*
*(After defeating Tenna, the hero finds the exit from the dungeon. The game screen goes dark. When it turns on again, the pixelated hero delivers a blow that seems to knock the ODDCONTROLLER out of the real Kris's hands. The controller falls to the floor.)*
[Scene: Obj Shelter Meadow]
*(Kris finds himself alone in a quiet, sunlit meadow. In front of him is the entrance to a Shelter.)*
*As you try to move Kris towards the shelter's entrance, his sprite actively resists. He repeatedly tries to turn and walk back, fighting against your control.*
*After a brief struggle, you force Kris to enter the shelter.*
[Scene: Obj Secret Mantle Battle]
*(Inside, it is dark and quiet. Kris walks down a long corridor. At the end, he finds an intricate room.)*
???: "Kris... oh... Kris... Is it fun, Kris? around like this..."
???: "That's why you're searching for them, aren't you?"
???: "The SHADOW CRYSTALs... ... and the SHADOW MANTLE that I'm holding!"
???: "Do you honestly think it'll get you what you want...?"
???: "... no, part of you is just... enjoying this, isn't it?"
???: "Oh, don't make that sour face. I can see in the dark, you know!"
???: "The question is... Can you?"
*(A non-turn-based, bullet-hell style battle begins with a bat-like creature. The battle has several phases, each more difficult than the last.)*
[(Phase 1)] The enemy attacks with simple bombs.
[(Phase 2)] The attacks become more intense, and the enemy now summons 'Image_friend'-like entities.
[(Phase 3)] The enemy begins to spew six projectiles in different trajectories from itself.
[(Phase 4)] The enemy summons flamethrower-like lines of fire.
[(Final Phase)] The background turns red. The enemy uses all its attacks simultaneously. The hero delivers a devastating blow, defeating the enemy.
*(After the victory, the screen darkens. Text from an unknown voice appears.)*
???: "There! That's what I wanted to see!"
???: "Flickering red, like pretty little flames."
???: "Your eyes can't hide it, Kris. Without play..."
???: "The knife grows dull."
???: "Haha... well, enough of that! We both have work to do!"
???: "So if you want this MANTLE, hurry up and take it."
???: "If you can reach it!"
*(A chest appears in the 8-bit game. However, THE HERO cannot pick it up. THE HERO exits and pushes Kris. Then Kris himself enters the screen as if it were a location and opens the chest.)*
*You opened the treasure chest.*
*Inside was ShadowMantle.*
*ShadowMantle was added to your ARMORS.*
*(The game ends. Kris returns to the floor. Susie appears.)*
Susie: "Hey Kris!"
Susie: "What the hell are you doing?"
Susie: "Being a tryhard all by yourself?"
Susie: "You seriously enjoy this?"
[Player Choice: ♥ Of course. Games are fun. / No]
Susie: "..."
Susie: "If you get all sweaty playing games alone..."
Susie: "You're gonna end up like Berdly, right?"
Susie: "... Okay, enough bird noises. I get it."
Susie: "Anyway."
Susie: "Here. Stole you a drink."
Susie: "Now stop making us wait already."
*(Susie leaves. Kris picks up the drink.)*
*You found a FlatSoda.*
*FlatSoda was added to your STORAGE.*
*(Kris leaves the secret room.)*
Ralsei: "... K... Kris? I'm sorry, Kris! I... I forgot all about you!"
Ralsei: "I got so into playing games with Susie, I..."
Susie: "Heh, you should have seen it, Kris!"
Susie: "He was actually RAGING at the falling arrow part."
Ralsei: "I suppose I was, not very chuffed, by that dart."
Ralsei: "But I... I had fun."
Ralsei: "... s-sorry! Did you want to play, Kris?"
Susie: "Dude, we need to seal the fountain."
Ralsei: "Oh! Right! I..."
Ralsei: "How did I... forget about that...?"
Susie: "Let's go."

*(The team finds themselves on the snowy film set again. In the background, the Dark Fountain is visible.)*
Ralsei: "Look! There, I can see it...!"
Ralsei: "There's the Dark Fountain! If we can just..."
*(Mr. Tenna appears. He lands between the team and the Fountain.)*
Mr. Tenna: "No! NO!! NO!!!"
Mr. Tenna: "WHAT are you doing!? WHERE are you going!? Ahaha!!"
*(Mr. Tenna changes his form to a black-and-white, older version with a top hat.)*
Mr. Tenna: "There are still GAMES to play!! SHOWS to watch!!"
Mr. Tenna: "Laughs and SCREAMS!! Smiles and TEARS!!"
Mr. Tenna: "Just wander back to your seats and we can..."
*(Susie and Ralsei rush forward, but Tenna throws them back.)*
Susie: "ENOUGH of your dumb games!!"
Susie: "Why the hell do you want us to play so bad anyway!?"
*(Tenna turns to Kris, his head bowed.)*
Mr. Tenna: "Kris."
Mr. Tenna: "Kris knows why."
Mr. Tenna: "Do you remember it, Kris?"
*(Tenna's face turns into a screen with static.)*
Mr. Tenna: "When everyone came over for the holidays?"
*(The screen fills with white static, and a flashback begins.)*
[Scene: Obj Tenna Flashback]
*(The scene shifts to a warm, cozy view of Kris's living room during Kristmas. Silhouettes of family and friends are gathered in front of the TV. On the TV screen is a white rectangle of light.)*
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Back when I was just a little old TV."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Everyone used to gather around my glow to watch the specials,"
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Smiling."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Smiling. Laughing."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Smiling. Laughing. Eating butterscotch pie."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Wasn't that just so much... fun?"
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "To watch me."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "I... was so happy."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Then..."
*(The silhouettes begin to disappear, one by one, in a precise, agonizing order. Dess disappears first, her figure just vanishes into thin air. Carol follows her. Then comes a split in the family: the father, Asgore, slowly melts away, leaving a void. Noelle and then Rudy stop coming too. After them, Kris's brother leaves, his silhouette goes off into the distance, towards the college. Even Kris himself seems to be moving away, his figure is getting dimmer. In the end, only Toriel remains, but her attention dissipates over time, absorbed by worries.)*
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "People stopped coming."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Everyone disappeared... one by one..."
*(Only one silhouette remains.)*
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "No one wanted to watch TV anymore."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "No one wanted to play games anymore."
*(The last silhouette disappears. The room becomes empty.)*
*(The scene darkens, leaving only the white rectangle of light from the screen.)*
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "I've been all alone..."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "Until now."
*(A small blue TV with a wide smile appears.)*
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "When the KNIGHT appeared..."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "The ROARING KNIGHT."
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "And I was told that if I keep you three busy,"
Mr. Tenna (voiceover): "I can have ALL the people watch me that I want."
*(The flashback ends. The scene returns to the snowy set.)*
[Scene: Obj Snow Set Confrontation]
Mr. Tenna: "And, I've been having SO much fun playing with you all,"
Mr. Tenna: "I... just don't want it to end!"
Mr. Tenna: "So... please... just say it with me."
*(Tenna raises a microphone.)*
Mr. Tenna: "IT'S!! TV!! TIME!!!"
Susie: "Enough already!!"
*(Susie rushes at Tenna but misses as he dodges.)*
Mr. Tenna: "Wh-what are you doing!? I just had this suit DE-AXED!!"
Susie: "We're done messing around."
Susie: "Give back Toriel. Now."
Mr. Tenna: "Alright. I get it."
Mr. Tenna: "I. GET IT! I REALLY get it!!"
Mr. Tenna: "Talking!! I've been doing too much... TALKING!!"
Mr. Tenna: "NO MORE questions!! What you need..."
Mr. Tenna: "Is another PHYSICAL CHALLENGE!!"
*(The scene transforms into a battle arena. A "SCORE" board appears.)*
*(The final battle with Mr. Tenna begins.)*
[Scene: Obj Tenna Final Battle]
Mr. Tenna: "That's right folks! One last challenge! 1000 points or bust! Can you do it!?"
*(A series of minigames begins, which are Tenna's attacks. The team must score points to win.)*
Mr. Tenna: "But don't think it's gonna be easy!! Because today..."
Mr. Tenna: "We've got an all-star cast!"
*(Attack 1: Stars.** Kris dodges falling stars, collecting them for points.)*
Mr. Tenna: "COWABUNGA-DERO! THAT'S THE SMOOTH TASTE OF TV TIME!"
*(Attack 2: Lightning.** Tenna attacks with lightning. The team dodges.)*
Mr. Tenna: "Haha, no way we can use that take! CUT!!"
Mr. Tenna: "Cut, I said! CUT! SMASH CUT!"
*(Attack 3: Minigames.** Tenna switches channels, launching short, chaotic versions of previous minigames: "DODGE FIRE", "SHOOT THE TARGETS", "PROTECT RALSEI", "BOUNCE THE BALL", "LIGHTNERS LIVE".)*
*(During the attacks, Tenna continues to commentate.)*
Mr. Tenna: "HEAR THAT WHINE!? THAT'S THE SOUND OF A HAPPY CUSTOMER!"
Mr. Tenna: "SICK OF THE CLASSICS!?"
Mr. Tenna: "NEO shows, NEO programs, just WATCH, WATCH, WATCH!"
Mr. Tenna: "FRESH FROM THE JUICE! FRESH FROM THE JUICE!"
Mr. Tenna: "CLAP AND CHEER, SMILE AND SCREAM! ENTERTAINMENT ON YOUR SCREEN!"
Mr. Tenna: "SUSIE, YOU LIKED WATCHING, DIDN'T YOU!?"
Mr. Tenna: "COME, ON! TELL 'EM! TELL 'EM!"
Mr. Tenna: "COME ON KIDS, THE AUDIENCE LOVES IT!! CAN'T YOU HEAR 'EM CRYING!?"
Mr. Tenna: "ALL RIGHT! IF ONE PHYSICAL CHALLENGE ISN'T ENOUGH..."
Mr. Tenna: "HOW ABOUT A DOUBLE FEATURE!?"
*(After each successful minigame, the score increases. Tenna becomes more and more desperate.)*
Mr. Tenna: "... WHERE... WHERE'S THE AUDIENCE? WHERE'D THEY GO...? WHERE ARE THEY!?"
Mr. Tenna: "THAT DAMN AUDIENCE! I GAVE THEM SO MANY POINTS HERE TODAY!"
Mr. Tenna: "MIKE... MIKE, IF YOU'RE STILL HERE... BAN EVERYONE FROM THE GIFT SHOP!"
Mr. Tenna: "I'M STILL MARVELOUS! I'M STILL MYSTERIOUS!"
Mr. Tenna: "TORIEL OUGHTA KNOW SHE DOESN'T NEED A NEW TV!!"
Mr. Tenna: "BACK TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING!"
Mr. Tenna: "ALRIGHT, YOU ASKED FOR IT! TIME FOR THE GRAND FINALE!"
Mr. Tenna: "THAT'S IT! IT'S TIME FOR THE FINAL EPISODE!"
Mr. Tenna: "WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OUR HEROES..."
Mr. Tenna: "WHEN THEY REALIZE THIS SHOW IS NEVER GONNA END!?"
*(The battle reaches its climax. The screen begins to glitch heavily, switching between all previous minigames and locations at a tremendous speed. In the center of this chaos, Tenna continues to attack.)*
*(Finally, after the final attack, Tenna falls, defeated. The screen explodes in a flash of white light.)*
*(The scene returns to the snowy set. Tenna lies on the ground, his body sparking.)*
Mr. Tenna: "N... no...! No no..."
Mr. Tenna: "Nooooooo..."
*(Tenna shrinks in size, turning into a small character in a cap, and falls into a beam of light.)*
Mr. Tenna: "I... I just wanted to be watched..."
Mr. Tenna: "I just wanted you to look at me..."
Mr. Tenna: "One last time.."
Mr. Tenna: "..."
Mr. Tenna: "Since... since a little while ago..."
Mr. Tenna: "All that I've been broadcasting, is the same reruns, over and over..."
Mr. Tenna: "I... I don't have anything anyone wants to watch anymore.."
Mr. Tenna: "I'm irrelevant... I'm junk..."
Mr. Tenna: "I don't wanna be thrown away..."
*(Two more beams of light appear, illuminating Ralsei and Susie.)*
Ralsei: "Mr. Tenna... I... understand how you feel."
Ralsei: "To want to be... important. To be... useful."
Ralsei: "Perhaps... you might not be watched much anymore..."
Ralsei: "But... that doesn't make you a failure, Tenna."
Ralsei: "You've brought smiles, light into Lightner's lives..."
Ralsei: "... to Kris's family and friends, for so long."
Ralsei: "So, there's nothing to be ashamed of."
Ralsei: "If... that ever comes to an end."
Ralsei: "Darkners... all become obsolete eventually."
Ralsei: "But we aren't "real", Tenna."
Ralsei: "We shouldn't make Lightners worry about what happens to us."
Ralsei: "It'd just... make them unhappy, wouldn't it?"
Mr. Tenna: "..."
Mr. Tenna: "m... m... maybe... you're right..."
Mr. Tenna: "B... but... I..."
Susie: "Hey."
Susie: "You wanna know what I think?"
Ralsei: "Susie?"
Susie: "I think..."
*(Susie approaches Ralsei and Kris.)*
Susie: "You don't have to take being thrown away."
*(The light focuses on Susie.)*
Susie: "Lemme tell you."
Susie: "I've never really been able to... make friends."
Susie: "I was always... the scary girl. The bad kid."
Susie: "The only times anyone ever got close to me,"
Susie: "... were as a joke."
Susie: "And even if I did start to make a real friend..."
Susie: "... I'd always end up..."
Susie: "Moving away."
*(Flashbacks appear: an empty classroom, a graveyard, a diner.)*
Susie (voiceover): "When I moved here, I thought it would be the same thing."
Susie (voiceover): "I felt like you."
Susie (voiceover): "I felt like a broken toy no one wanted."
Susie (voiceover): "..."
Susie (voiceover): "Kris's mom saw me. Toriel."
Susie (voiceover): "Saw me sitting on the bench in the graveyard, crying."
Susie (voiceover): "She asked me what was wrong, and..."
Susie (voiceover): "Told me everything was going to be okay."
Susie (voiceover): "Took me to the diner. Bought me a hot chocolate."
Susie (voiceover): "Talked to me. Told me I'd make friends."
Susie (voiceover): "That... gave me hope. Even just a little."
Susie (voiceover): "..."
*(The flashbacks end. The scene returns to the team.)*
Susie: "And recently. That hope's been growing."
Susie: "Because... now I have friends."
Susie: "Real friends."
Susie: "Friends I wanna keep."
Susie: "Kris. Ralsei. Lancer... Toriel, too."
Susie: "Even though I thought I was broken..."
Susie: "I just needed to find the right people, y'know?"
Susie: "So..."
Susie: "Don't worry, dude."
Susie: "Someone out there wants you. Promise."
Susie: "Kris, you'll help me ask around town, right?"
Susie: "Someone's gotta want a TV."
Mr. Tenna: "You... you'll help me?"
Mr. Tenna: "SUSIE!!! You..."
*(Tenna in his colored form appears again, his body floating in the air.)*
Mr. Tenna: "You're INCREDIBLE! You're AMAZING!! No... you're MARVELOUS!!"
Mr. Tenna: "I feel electric!! I feel like a million bucks!!"
Mr. Tenna: "This... this must be what HOPE feels like!!"
Mr. Tenna: "We're inventing a Hall of Fame just for you!!!"
*(Susie turns to him.)*
Susie: "But... you gotta give back Toriel."
Susie: "She's got people that need her, too."
Mr. Tenna: "I..."
Mr. Tenna: "I understand!"
Mr. Tenna: "I know it's not what the KNIGHT wants, but..."
Mr. Tenna: "Kris!! Susie!! Good contestants deserve a good prize!!"
Mr. Tenna: "This way!!"
*(Tenna points to the Dark Fountain. The team follows him.)*
Ralsei: "Susie..."
Susie: "Hear that, Ralsei?"
Susie: "No one's gonna get thrown away."
Susie: "Not you. Not me. Not Kris."
Susie: "Got it?"
Ralsei: "..."
Ralsei: "... got it, Susie."
Susie: "Well, let's go!"
[Scene: Obj Snow Set Fountain Approach]
*(The team stands on the snowy film set after defeating Tenna.)*
Susie: "Well, let's go!"
*(The team walks towards the Dark Fountain and the capsule with Toriel.)*
*(Suddenly, a blow is struck from behind. Tenna falls, his arms severed, and his body sparks.)*
*(Behind him appears a tall, coal-black figure with a white outline—the Knight.)*
Susie: "T- TENNA!?"
*(The team runs up to the Knight.)*
Susie: "Who... WHO the hell are you!?"
*(The Knight tries to grab the capsule with Toriel, but the team blocks his path.)*
Susie: "If... if you don't tell us who you are, then..."
*(Susie draws her axe.)*
Susie: "Like hell we're letting you take her...!"
*(The Knight steps back, towards the Dark Fountain.)*
