Day 3: Radio Killed the Video Star
We open with an exterior shot of the Hazbin Hotel before cutting to inside with Charlie pacing back and forth in panic mode. Keekee was in the shot, walking alongside her owner. The Twilight Gang looked at the princess with concern on their faces. They didn't think Heaven would rush the Extermination, and no one was to blame but Adam who Roxas mentally cursed.
Charlie: "Okay. So the extermination is coming in six months instead of a year. No big deal. Just a little setback. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half. But who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right?! And next time when they cut the time in half again, and again, we'll just handle it, right?!"
Vaggie: "Yes. We will." She grabbed her girlfriend by her shoulders to calm her down.
Roxas: "Everything will be alright Charlie. We're all surprised just as you are."
Xion: "I still find it terrifying that Extermination is in half a year. But we'll figure out something eventually."
Axel: "Xion's right. Whenever something bad happens, there's always a miracle that is bound to appear in the most dire situations."
Saix: "Exactly, and we had our fare share of miracles where we come from."
Charlie: "Thanks you guys, I needed that."
Angel Dust: "Oh, please, ya had less then half a chance when you started all this salvation bullshit. And now... Ain't no silver lining this time toots." He said as his phone vibrates with violent threatening messages such as "fucking bitch".
Charlie: "Sure there is! We just...have to look a little harder for it!"
Angel Dust: "Well, while you're lookin', the rest'a hell's goin' nuts. People are already freakin' out about the news. Look at what's happenin' in the Doomsday District." The spider sinner waves his phone in their faces. He scrolls down an article with the bottom showing a demon screaming in front of a fire. Suddenly a pink message appear as Charlie gets closer to read it.
Roxas/Xion: "Uh... what's a donkey show?" They tilted their heads confused.
Angel Dust: "Aah, heh, nothin'. My boss, Val, is just freaked out about the news too. Like I said, everyone's losin' their shit." He panics and retreats the phone back.
Axel and Saix sighed a breath of relief without everyone noticing. They didn't want the two youngsters to learn about something... rather obscure.
Vaggie: "Yeah, that's true. Sinners are desperate. Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?"
Charlie: "This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!"
Angel Dust: "Cute idea and all, but you really gonna go out in all of this?" He waves the phone with the place still on fire and demons in panic.
Charlie: "Well, it's not like people are just gonna show up on our doorstep -"
Suddenly, a massive explosion made Charlie scream in fright from behind, getting their attention. They turn to see a freshly made hole in the wall, which cuts outside to see Sir Pentious' zeppelin armed for battle. The scene cuts inside to see him and his Egg Boiz scattering around.
Axel: "You were saying, princess?"
Sir Pentious: "Show yourself Aliccccce. Come and face -"
Pentious pauses for a moment when he notices Alice absent from the freshly made hole. He then looks to see her sipping coffee on the balcony of the second floor.
Sir Pentious: "Oh there you are - Face my wrath!"
Alice: "Who are you?"
Sir Pentious: "Who am I? Who am I?! I am the great Ssssssir Pentiousssss!"
The Radio Demon dissolves into fog as she descends to the ground, materializing beside Angel, Vaggie, Charlie, Roxas, Xion, Axel and Saix who are in the scene watching Sir Pentious's zeppelin.
Sir Pentious: "Inventor, architect of dessstruction, villain extraordinaire!"
Egg Bois: "Ooh you tell 'em boss."
Niffty: "Ooooooh, he's a bad boy~" The miniature cyclops appears on Alice's right shoulder, clearly starstruck. Alice scoops her up and drops her to the ground.
Alice: "Ha, well if all that's true, you'd think I'd have heard of you."
Sir Pentious: "I attacked you literally last week."
Alice cocks her head in confusion.
Sir Pentious: "We've done battle, like... 20 times."
Alice: "Well, you must have been really bad at this."
Axel: "Oooooooh! Burn!"
Saix: "That is just sad there."
Feeling his ego being deflated and hearing himself get humiliated, Pentious snapped back at everyone.
Sir Pentious: "Silence! Now cower! For when I've ssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal."
Niffty: "Ooh! Wait, who are the Vees?"
Alice: "Oh, nobody important."
The camera cuts to the Vees' headquarters. A large crowd is in front of a store as they watch an advertisement on the tvs facing the window showing off a spy drone.
Ad: "New VoxTek designer voyeur scopes, Peeping on the neighbors has never been more stylish. VoxTek! Trust us with your money!"
The crowd immediately enters the store and stampedes out with boxes with voyeur scopes. then cuts to random people watching their computers laptops and phones, and reveals their eyes signifying the work of hypnosis.
Ad: "This week's episode of "Yeah, I Fucked Your Sister, So What?" is brought to you by VoxTek. Trust us with your entertainment!"
The camera shifts to someone tapping their fingers as we enter a large room with tvs showing off numerous consumers as "trust us" repeats and overlaps. Electricity courses as Vox stands up from his chair laughing maniacally from his viewer's consumerism.
Vox: "Muhahaha! Now that's good television!"
Suddenly his screen-face shifts to reveal an icon of Velvette, another one of the Vees, signifying she's calling, with a clown horn ringtone. Vox answers the call from his screen to his hands via his electric powers and transfers it to one of his many screens to reveal Velvette in her studio, her hair into a large ponytail.
Vox: "Hello there, Velvette! How are you this hellish morning?"
Velvette: "Oh, cut the shit, Vox. I need you up here now!"
Vox: "Whatever could be the problem, my dear?" He looks to one of his screens as he gets his coffee cup and drinks from it.
Velvette: "Your little boy toy is wrecking my apartment, while I'm trying to pull together a show and-"
Off-screen we see several workers running and screaming, and objects being tossed, as Valentino is heard cussing.
Valentino: "THAT FUCKING BITCH!" His voice boomed angrily from off screen.
Velvette: "Just get your ass here, NOW! ...Damn it, Valentino!"
The call ends, and Vox's smile fades away as he gets up sighing, fixing up his bowtie.
Vox: "'Oh god. Here I go, Valentino.' Just another fucking day with Val. Hey-hey-hey. Fuck my life."
Vox then walks up to a platform, which rises up. The scene cuts to an elevator with a smiling Vox with the world bubble saying "trust us!", before opening to reveal a frowning Vox in the same position, sighing, and then putting on a smile for a crowd of reporters that overlap one another before pointing their microphones to him.
Reporter: "Mr. Vox! What are your thoughts about the new extermination deadline?"
Vox: "My dear people! We at VoxTek Enterprises have always been at the forefront of innovation. And now, with this new oncoming threat, we are shifting our focus, to your protection. We are pleased to announce-"
The screen zooms to him and an ad featuring the VoxTek logo, now gold and with angelic wings, with the tagline reading-
Vox: "VoxTek Angelic Security is coming soon! Trust us, with YOUR safety." He says as he uses his left eye to hypnotize the crowd the same way as his consumers.
Manager: "Uh sir, when did we begin working on Angelic Security?"
Vox: "Thirty seconds ago. Try to get that bitch Carmilla on the books and cancel all my appointments today. I have a fire to put out upstairs."
He then morphs his body into electricity and generates itself into the security camera on the wall. We cut to Velvette's studio, where the staff cleans everything up as she looks to four designers holding up dresses to show her
Velvette: "Ugh. No. Unacceptable. You're fired. What is this? WRIST RUFFLES?! Is this 1750?! BURN IT like the witches who wore it!"
As she sends the designer away, Vox appears next to her.
Vox: "Velvette! I can see you're busy. Tell me, where's our hot-headed friend now?"
Velvette: "Up in his tower, waiting for a flat-faced prince to calm him down!"
Vox: "And uh, what's got him so out of sorts today?"
Velvette: "Who knows? But he tore up my best model! And you know, the show can't wait for that unlucky bitch to pull herself back together! Melissa! Get over here!"
Melissa nervously runs onto the platform, and Velvette uses her overlord powers to change her outfit by swiping her hand, one after another until she spots the one she wants.
Velvette: "No. No. Hideous. I want to die. Eww. Yes! That's the one."
Vox: "Ahh, looks like you have everything under control here."
Velvette: "Of course, I do! Fuck you! Now shoo! Take care of the piss baby!"
The TV demon goes upstairs and is greeted by two moth demons who open the door for him. Once he enters, he finds Valentino sitting on his couch surrounded by a fog of red smoke. When Val notices Vox, he sits up with fury in his eyes.
Valentino: "Fucking FINALLY! Kitty! Another drink!"
The Robo Fizz next to him nods as it quickly heads off screen and re-appears with the drink.
Valentino: "Ugh! Can you believe what that piece of shit did? THE UNGRATEFUL WHORE!!!" As he speaks, he tosses the drink at Vox, who moves away making the drink hit the door and shatters on the floor.
Vox: "Uh, which whore are we talking about this time?"
Valentino: "Fucking Angel Dust! Who the hell else would I be talking about?! That fucking SLUT walked out on me! ME! I fucking made him! Without me, he's just a bag of meat with some mildly entertaining holes."
Vox: "Oh! Angel quit?"
Valentino: "NO! He didn't fucking quit! It's worse! He MOVED!!!" As he says that, he tosses Vox's phone to the wall making it shatter in half. "He thinks he can just walk in here, work, and then go home somewhere else? Can you FUCKING believe that?! He thinks he can run off and shack up with Lucifer's bimbo daughter!"
Vox: "Angel is... living with Lucifer's daughter?"
Valentino: "YEAH! That BITCH Chuckie or Chandler, or I dunno- Something mannish like that, she's got this hotel and—"
As he speaks, he opens the closet full of guns, drugs, and pictures including a poster of himself. Valentino brings up two long pistol guns: a long revolver and a semi-pistol.
Valentino: "Which of these makes me look sexier?"
Vox: "Heh. What are you doing, Val? You're not going over there." He speaks as his left eye changes to show his simmering anger, but Valentino is busy loading his guns.
Valentino: "That slippery twink is gonna remember who owns him. I'm gonna FUCK everyone in that rancid shit hole, I swear to god!" Before he finishes, Vox grabs him by the collar and shoves him to his face, clearly furious.
Vox: "VAL- Hehe. Think about it." Vox then walks Valentino towards the window, taking away one of his guns and putting it in his pocket. "Our brand is, perfection. And what do you think chasing whores around town will do for our image?"
Valentino: "Um.....fuck it up?"
A stereotypical 'winning' ding is played.
Vox: "Right! Do you want people thinking you can't control your employees?"
Valentino: "No!"
Vox: "Exactly! And hey, you still have him under contract. He isn't going anywhere! SO...you should..."
Valentino: "Do nothing?"
A sound like winning at a casino is played.
Vox: "Great idea! Now that's why they pay you the Big bucks."
Valentino: "Ugh. But I really wanted to shoot someone." He whined as he gets a cigarette holder, and Vox lights it with his electricity powers.
Vox: "Well, lemme call up the lowest earners this month."
Valentino: "Ohh, you know me too well. Ya know....Angel isn't the only one spending time at this Ratty Hotel with the devil's princesa."
Vox: "Oh? Who else is there? Someone who, owes you money?"
Valentino: " Someone who owes us much more than money ...the Radio Demon is there."
Upon hearing those words, electricity courses through Vox's head, and he scratches the desk so hard it leaves scratch marks. Vox made small ominous chuckles before turning to Valentino, two red lines appear on the left side of his lower lip.
Vox: "What did you just say?"
Valentino: "You heard me."
Vox: "Alice... came back... and she is with Lucifer's daughter, and that wasn't the FIRST FUCKING THING YOU TOLD ME?!?!?!"
Valentino: "Hey! killing Alice is your kink. And that's not all. Apparently those humans who appeared on the news a few weeks ago are also there."
Vox: "What?! Let me see that!"
He walks to the desk and turns on the television. Vox teleports to the center screen, which is a recording from a VoxTek Voyeur scope high in the sky. The scene, from a drone point of view, shows Alice using her powers to attack Sir Pentious zeppelin, laughing maniacally as she hears Pentious screaming. While that was happening, Charlie, Vaggie, Angel Dust, Niffty, Roxas, Xion, Axel and Saix watched, almost feeling bad for the poor sinner.
Sir Pentious: "Arrgh! Oh! Please! Stop!"
Charlie: "Um...Alice! I think he's had enough."
Angel Dust: "Nah. He's got a few more hits in him."
Roxas: "I almost feel bad for the poor guy."
Xion: "Isn't this a little too much?"
Axel: "To be fair, he wrecked the wall. So he kinda brought that on himself."
The snake sinner falls from the zeppelin in front of Alice, face first on the ground as she twirled her staff.
Alice: "Thanks for another forgettable experience."
Sir Pentious: "Thank you... for letting your guard down!"
Using his tail, he grabs a bit of Alice's suit, tearing it off. He laughed for a moment until he realized what he had brought himself into.
Sir Pentious: "Aha! Yah! Oh, shit..."
Saix: "And three... two... one..."
Roxas: "It was nice knowing you bud."
Sir Pentious looks up to see Alice's shadow transform in front of him and Alice apparently makes an elk bugle. The next shot shows a massive green explosion as Sir Pentious is seen flying off to the city screaming as he disappears from sight.
Axel: "And he's out folks! Home run!"
Alice: "Well, it looks as though I need a visit to the tailor! Best of luck, chums."
Vaggie: "Wait, you're leaving?! Alice! We need your help! We need you to do your job."
Angel Dust: "We need a wall."
Alice: "Of course! Can't let my new project fall into disrepair already. What would the papers say?!"
With a snap of her fingers, black ink demons appear with construction tools as Alice walks away. Angel takes an interest and looks at one of the larger muscular demons, shoving Vaggie away as he walks up to him.
Angel Dust: "Hey, sweet cheeks. Whatcha doin' later? I love me a man with a giant ...tool."
The screen zooms out to reveal Valentino scowling at the current events, leaning his face against the screen.
Valentino: "See?! Look how he flirts with that guy, and he's not even paying! Who is that? I'm gonna fucking kill his whole fucking family! Vox? VOX!"
Vox was paying little attention, as his left pupil turns into a tilde as he eyes Alice leaving, his appearance static and out of focus as the screen becomes a bit static.
Vox: "That FUCKER is back!"
Valentino: "Yeah! I thought she was gone for good too!" He grins as he realizes the situation and walks to him.
Vox: "It's been seven years!"
The moth overlord leans up to him and pinches his cheek, clearly too pissed to care.
Valentino: "You still pissed that she almost beat you that time?"
Vox: "Uh, FUCK YOU."
Valentino: "Just saying."
Vox: "Things have changed a lot since she left town!"
Valentino: "That's for sure."
Vox: "I gotta send a message of who's REALLY in charge of things now!"
Vox's face fills the screen as Valentino laughs in the background. The next shot shows Vox grinning as he marches to his chair.

Vox: ♫ Welcome home! ♫
♫ I'm gonna make you wish that you stayed gone! ♫
As Vox sings, electricity courses through his arm as he sits on his chair, and turns to face the numerous screens.
Vox: ♫ Say hello to a new status quo, ♫
He presses a big red button, and 4 cords latch themselves to the ports on the back of his head, connecting himself to his TV networks.
Vox: ♫ Everyone knows that there's a brand-new dawn, turn the TV on! ♫
Director: Camera, speeds, rolling in three, two...
Chorus: ♫ Wel-come to the show! ♫
Vox: ♫ Top of the hour and we're discussing a certain has-been who has been spotted cavorting around town after a seven-year absence, ♫
♫ Did anybody miss her, did anybody notice? ♫
♫ More on tonight's program. ♫
♫ So, the Radio Demon is back in town! ♫
♫ Why is she hanging around? ♫
♫ What does that mean for your family? ♫
♫ Well, handily, I've got good news! ♫
♫ She's a loser, a fossil, and I don't mean to sound hostile, ♫
Vox & Chorus: ♫ But the demon is a coward! ♫
Vox: ♫ You can take that as gospel. ♫
♫ Pulling my viewers? Impossible! ♫
♫ I'm visual, she's barely audible! ♫
♫ Stop giving her the time of day! ♫
♫ Don't listen to a word she'd say. ♫
♫ I hope she had a nice vacay! ♫
Vox & Chorus: ♫ But she should have stayed away! ♫
It cuts to Alice who had just finished getting her coat tailored. She notices the crowd watching the advertisement of Vox. She smiles and walks away with an idea as Vox continues singing.
Vox: ♫ While she hid in radio, we pivoted to video! Now her medium is getting bloody rare! ♫
In a hallway in V Tower, Vox jumps, twirls and then pulls Valentino and Velvette towards him.
♫ Hell's been better since she split, ♫
♫ Where's she been? ♫
♫ Who gives a shit?! ♫
The scene transitions to Alice making her reappearance, as she starts her radio broadcast from a radio station attached to the top corner of the Hazbin Hotel.
Alice: ♫ Salutations! ♫
♫ Good to be back on the air. ♫
♫ Yes, I know it's been a while since someone with style treated Hell to a broadcast. ♫
♫ Sinners rejoice! ♫
Vox: ♫ What a dated voice! ♫
Alice: ♫ Instead of a clout chasing mediocre video podcast. ♫
Vox: "COME ON!"
Alice: ♫ Is Vox insecure, pursuing allure? ♫
♫ Flitting between this fad and that. ♫
♫ Is nothing working? ♫
Vox: "IGNORE HER CHIRPING!"
Alice: ♫ Every day he's got a new format! ♫
Vox: "YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE FUTURE!"
Vox & Chorus: ♫ She's the shit that comes before that! ♫
Alice: ♫ Is Vox as strong as he purports? ♫
♫ Or is it based on his support? ♫
♫ He'd be powerless without the other Vees! ♫
Vox: "Oh, PLEASE."
Alice: ♫ And here's the sugar on the cream. ♫
♫ He asked ME to join this team! ♫
Vox: "Hold on!"
Alice: ♫ I said no, and now he's pissy! That's the tea. ♫
As Alice continues with her radio broadcast, Vox gets so pissed that his screen face starts to glitch and crash as he gets angrier.
Vox: ♫ You oold timey PRICK! I'll show y-you suffering! ♫
Alice: ♫ Uh oh, the TV is buffering! ♫
Vox couldn't handle his anger, causing him to overload his circuits with static electricity.
Vox: ♫ I'LL DESTROY YOOOOU-YOU LIT-T-LE—♫
Vox's screen face and voice overloads and crashes, before he involuntarily lets out an outburst that overloads everything from the TV screens to Valentino and Velvette's phone to everywhere in Pentagram City, causing a citywide blackout with the exception of the Hazbin Hotel.
Alice: ♫ I'm afraid you've lost your signal. ♫
The camera zooms in on the hotel, and then zooms into Alice's radio station.
♫ Let's begin. ♫
She slowly turns into her true demon form with every sentence, putting her staff down.
♫ I'm gonna make you wish that I stayed gone! ♫
♫ Tune on in. ♫
♫ When I'm done, your status quo will know it's race is run! ♫
♫ Oh, this will be fun! ♫
Alice makes one last evil laugh before cutting off Vox's signal throughout the city, leaving the Overlord dismayed that Alice is still as popular and powerful as she was last time.
Vox: "FUU-UU-UCK!"
Back with Alice, she turns off her radio station and sighs happily. She made her reappearance live for everyone in Hell to listen and gets to piss off Vox.
Alice: "What a lovely afternoon. It is so good to be back. Though... I do hope that adorable little human tuned in to my broadcast and listened to my singing~ There will be more entertainment for me to share with him~" Her little tail wagged happily as she was gushing thinking about a certain Keyblade Wielder.
The scene cuts to the emergency meeting with Vox, Velvette, and Valentino to discuss a matter with Alastor as a Robo Fizz, Kitty, passing out drinks to each of them.
Vox: "We have a problem. Alice is getting close to little princess Morningstar, so our main concern now is ensuring that no deal is ever struck between Lucifer's BRAT and that smiling freak!"
Velvette: "Well, how exactly are we supposed to stop it?"
Valentino: "Put something inside them. That's how I get the bitches to behave." He says as he was putting so much glue on his revolver to decorate with glitter and marbles.
Vox: "Well, maybe someone on the inside isn't such a bad idea. Do you think Angel would?"
Valentino: "That lanky prick won't even return my calls."
Vox: "We need someone who Little Miss Bleeding Heart would take in."
Velvette: "Someone...pathetic, desperate, with no direct ties to us?"
Valentino: "I employ every down on their luck loser this side of Hell. Who the fuck is left?"
Vox: "I think, I have... JUST the one." He scoffs as he slowly turns around, the sharks in the shark tank swim up to his shoulders, his right-hypnotic eye gleaming with a sinister grin for a plan he has in store.
Back at the hotel, Alice's black and white demons are currently fixing the hole in the wall as Charlie and Vaggie return, throwing themselves onto the couch clearly exhausted.
Angel Dust: "Soooo? How'd it go?"
Vaggie: "Not a single new recruit."
Angel Dust: "Yeah well, who would wanna use their last days not fucking and fighting?"
Charlie: "Today has been a complete bust, but I'm sure we'll do better tomorrow." She said trying to bring some enthusiasm. When she looked around, she noticed that the Twilight Gang was nowhere in sight. "Hey, where did Roxas and everyone else go?"
Angel Dust: "Beats me. They said they were going to get some treats for all of us."
As if on cue, the front door opens to reveal the Twilight Gang holding a couple of boxes. The four of them seem ecstatic and happy, moreso Roxas and Xion.
Charlie: "There you guys are. Where have you been?"
Axel: "I figured everyone was working hard in these trying times, so the four of us walked around town. And by some miracle, we went to the ice cream parlor and they got a specific flavor we all enjoy."
Vaggie: "That's thoughtful of you guys. What flavor did you all get?"
Roxas and Xion were practically jumping and looking up at Axel and Saix who chuckled seeing their faces. They set the boxes down and opened them up revealing....
Roxas/Xion: "SEA SALT ICE CREAM!!!!"
Charlie: "Sea..."
Vaggie: "Salt..."
Angel Dust: "Ice Cream?"
Saix: "We were surprised when the owner told us nobody bothered to order it. So he gave us his whole stock for free since we were the only ones who picked it out."
Roxas: "Come on! You guys have to try it! It's really good!"
Charlie: "Well... You guys did go out of your way to get us treats. It would be a waste to not try it."
The three demons grabbed their popsicles and took off the wrapper. They all took a lick from their frozen treats and their eyes widened in surprise.
Angel Dust: "Holy shit! These babies aren't bad!"
Vaggie: "It starts off salty but it has a sweet flavor to it too!"
Charlie: "They are so good!"
Axel: "Right?! These sinners are missing out for not picking these out!" The hothead grabbed his own popsicle and chomped down on it.
Xion: "Their loss, our gain." She happily licked her popsicle.
As everyone was eating their frozen desserts, Vaggie heard a knock on the front door. She walks over to it and opens the door, only to find Sir Pentious behind it, holding his hat.
Sir Pentious: "Why, hello my dear—"
The snake sinner was cut off by Vaggie punching him in the face. He falls when Vaggie brings out her spear at him. He cowers in fear with the tip barely at his neck, and holds a peace sign gesture.
Sir Pentious: "Wait, wait, wait! I come in peace." The 's' sound in 'peace is drawn out, in mimicry of a snake.
Vaggie: "What are you doing here?"
Roxas: "What's going on, Vaggie?" The Nobody questioned as he bit on his popsicle.
Charlie: "Vaggie, what's the problem? Oh! Hello again!"
Roxas: "You again? Wow, you're tougher than you look after what Alice did to you."
Sir Pentious: "I didn't come looking for a fight. I uhh.. I heard that you're helping people, people who want to be better?"
Charlie: "You heard right! Welcome to our home of healing, our resort of restoration, our-"
Angel Dust: "Are you fucking nuts? This chump was trying to kill us like literally 6 hours ago! And now you wanna bring him here to live with us?"
Charlie: "Absolutely! This place is about second chances, and who deserves one more than this slithery... slippery... special little man!"
Roxas: "I mean, Angel does have a point. What's stopping him from trying to pull that same stunt earlier today?"
Angel Dust: "Aren't you supposed to protect this place?" He looked over to Vaggie.
Charlie gives her puppy-dog eyes, begging Vaggie and Roxas to give Sir Pentious a chance to live in the hotel to which they find it hard to resist and gave in.
Roxas: "Gah! T-Too cute! Why does she have to look so adorable?!" "A-Alright... I guess we can give him shot. But no funny business, got it?" He looked over to Pentious who nodded.
Vaggie: "I guess he's not much of a threat without the war machine, or even with the war machine."
Charlie: "Oh! Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Sir Pentious! Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!"
Sir Pentious: "Oh no darling! Thank you! You won't regret this."
Angel Dust: "Eh, I give you a week, tops."
Charlie gives Sir Pentious the tour of the hotel, introducing Husk to him, the wall he blew up before it was fixed, and soon everyone else.
Charlie: "So, this is the bar and the bartender. This is the curtain, and this is the new wall after you broke the last one, heh, and oh! Oh! This is the-"
Roxas: "Haha, easy there Charlie. Slow your rolls."
Vaggie: "Babe, you don't have to show him every detail."
Charlie: "Sorry, I'm just so excited to have our first real guest!"
Angel Dust: "Uh, what the hell am I then?"
Charlie: "Well, you're an important part of our family here Angel, but you uhm, uh..."
Vaggie: "Constantly make us look bad, sexually harass the staff, and have literally never once tried to improve?"
Charlie: "What she means is, it's just nice to have someone interested for once." As she walks back to Sir Pentious, Angel Dust looks downtrodden, likely feeling sad about Vaggie's comments and Charlie's unintentional dismissal of him.
Niffty is seen playing with Keekee with a string when Charlie and Sir Pentious approach. Keekee hisses at the sight of Sir Pentious and scatters away while Niffty turns to meet him.
Charlie: "Over here we have our maid Niffty."
Niffty: "The bad boy is back!" She gets up on the snake sinner and holds his collars, looking at him with insanity in her red eye and a very sadistic smile, which creeps out Sir Pentious. "Never leave me again."
Charlie: "We're about 80% sure she's harmless, and over here we have- Oh! Uh, Alice! Our gracious facility manager! You've met our newest guest Sir Pentious... hehe..."
Alice: "Ah yes! You're the one who ruined my coat!" She said as her eyes glow red in the dark with a violent temptation to rip him apart. "I definitely remember you now."
Charlie: "Well, I guess this is a great time for your first lesson! "How to apologize!" The first step to becoming a better person is to admit when you are wrong, why don't you give it a try?"
Sir Pentious: "Yes..uhm.. Ms. uhm.. Radio Demon ma'am, please forgive me for attacking you and ruining your very lovely coat.. uhm.. here." As a token of apology, he hands back the small fabric he tore from Alice's coat. She takes it and inspects the damage.
Alice: "Ah-Ho! Not many people have been able to take even this much off me, it must have meant quite a lot to you."
Despite being generous, Alice spontaneously combusts the fabric tear into green flames, leaving Sir Pentious and Charlie stunned. Roxas sighed as he gently rests his hand on the Radio Demon's shoulder before things could escalate.
Roxas: "Alice, can you please not scare him? He's trying his best to apologize for this morning. Can you at least give him a chance? Please? For me?"
Alice: "I-I um... When you put it like that... Fine, I suppose I can make an exception." She blushed lightly seeing him plead for her. She coughed and regained her composure. "Very well, consider yourself lucky, snake. Otherwise I'll do more than just blast you away."
Sir Pentious: "Y-Yes ma'am! Thank you very much, Ms. Radio Demon!"
Roxas: "Thank you, Alice. Oh! Would you like some Sea Salt Ice Cream?" He asked her as he took out a popsicle.
Alice: "What a peculiar concoction. It wouldn't hurt trying this frozen little treat."
She happily grabbed the popsicle and got rid of the wrapper. Once she took a bite out of it, her eyes widened and squealed clasping her cheeks.
Alice: "My, my! It's salty but it is also sweet! The best of both worlds!"
Roxas: "I knew you'd like it! Sea Salt Ice Cream is the best!" He smiled brightly.
Alice: "My goodness his smile! It's so innocent and bright! Oh, I can't wait when I get my hands on him~"
The scene cuts to a group gathering introducing Sir Pentious to the hotel.
Charlie: "Now, with a new resident, I think it's important we all get to know each other! So we are going to play a little game. Everyone, follow me. My name is Charlie." CLAP "I like to sing!" CLAP "And when we get to know each other it's the greatest thing!" CLAP! CLAP!
Sir Pentious: "My name's Sir Pentious." CLAP! CLAP! "I like to build." CLAP! CLAP! "And despite my stupid Egg Bois, I think I'm very skilled!" CLAP! CLAP!

Charlie: "This- is not- stupid!" CLAP! CLAP! "It's just a game!" CLAP! CLAP! "Sir Pentious did it well so now please try to do the same!" CLAP! CLAP!

The next scene cuts to an act with Angel Dust wearing a trench coat and a hat as he reads a script. Sir Pentious is also acting as an innocent child wearing a sailor suit, licking a comically large lollipop.
Angel Dust: "Oh, I'm a bad man on the streets who never got enough hugs, now, where's an innocent kid I can sell crack to?" Wow, who wrote this?"
Charlie: "It's great right? Keep going!"
Angel Dust: "Hey you."
Sir Pentious: "Who, me?"
Angel Dust: "Yeah, you look like a kid who could use some... devil's dandruff??" Oh, for fuck's sake."
Sir Pentious: "Not me! I have to go home and study!"
Angel Dust: "Come on kid, it'll make you cool like me ...the crackhead."
Sir Pentious: "The only cool thing here is to say no to drugs! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to not have sexual intercourse before marriage!"
Charlie: "Yes! Oh bravo! Bravo! Wow Pentious! At this rate, you'll be redeemed in no time."
Angel Dust: "I... I'm going to bed."
As Angel heads back up to his room, he overhears Charlie congratulating Sir Pentious. Looking back at them, he looks sad. The Nobodies glanced over to where Angel left and felt bad for the spider sinner. They made a mental note to confront Angel about his problems whenever he's ready.
Charlie: "I am so proud of you Sir Pentious! That was amazing!"
Sir Pentious: "Thank you! Thank you! You like me! You really like me!"
In Angel's room, Fat Nuggets is asleep on his bed until Angel accidentally throws his coat on top of him. Fat Nuggets grunts and crawls out of the coat, as he watches Angel lie down on his bed. Angel glumly looks at his phone and sees all his voice mails from Valentino. Angel sighs and begins to play them. Valentino's voice mails switch back and forth between a friendly, apologetic tone and a barrage of screams threatening violence.
Angel baby, come home! It's not the same without you here, I miss you! Come back-
ANGEL, YOU BITCH! IF YOU DON'T COME HOME, YOU'LL BE FUCKING GREASY TRUCKERS FOR THE NEXT YEAR-
Hey, amorcito, I didn't mean to yell, but you know how crazy you make me-
YOU FUCKING SLUT!
Hey, Angie! About earlier-
-KILL YOUR WHOLE FUCKIN' FAMILY!
Work's really stressful!
-LITTLE COCKSUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!
You actually think you can change?
Red smoke appears from seemingly nowhere, and circles around Angel until Val stops talking, ending with the smoke clinging around his neck and chin like hands before fading away.
Addict trash like you doesn't change. I'll see you soon, baby.
Angel sighs as Fat Nuggets gets on the bed next to him.
Angel Dust: "Sorry.... not now, Fat Nuggets." He gets up and leaves his room with Fat Nuggets looking worried.
The porn star goes to Husk's bar, picks up a whole bottle, and starts drinking alcohol. Out of the corner of his eye, he notices something slithering away. He follows, finding Charlie's office door opened, and takes a peek inside. There, he discovers that Sir Pentious is setting up a small camera in one of the bookshelves, a camera that belongs to Vox. Angel realizes what he's been doing and slams the door open.
Angel Dust: "You slippery little shit!"
The slithering snake gasps as he turns over, panicking that his cover has been blown.
Angel Dust: "You're working for the Vees? I fucking knew there was something shitty about you."
Sir Pentious: "I don't know what you're talking about Whore bug!"
Angel, sufficiently angered, tackles Sir Pentious on the ground. He punches him in the face before wrestling with him.
Sir Pentious: "Get your aggressively average body... OFF OF ME!" His eyes spiral hypnotic powers to him, momentarily hypnotizing Angel.
Angel Dust: "Fuck!" He backs away and then quickly snaps out of it. He now has Sir Pentious cornered. Right then, Charlie, Vaggie and Roxas woke up after hearing the scuffle.
Charlie: "What's going on?" She yawned.
Roxas: "It's getting late for all this noise... What's the big deal?"
Angel Dust: "This little bitch is a traitor!"
Sir Pentious: "Preposterous! I would never betray you. You... are my best friends!"
Angel Dust: "Uh huh, then explain this!" He lifts off one of the books to reveal a camera, much to Charlie's shock. Sir Pentious realizes that his cover is blown and scurries away. He brings out his wrist watch to make contact with Vox.
Sir Pentious: "Ah! Ah! Abort! Abort! S.O.S! Agent Pentious in need of immediate evacuation!"
Vox immediately picks up.
Vox: "Pentious? Wait... you were caught?!? It hasn't even been a day!"
Sir Pentious: "Please! You've got to get me out of here!"
Vox: "I can't believe we thought you could handle even something this simple! Do us a favor, if they don't kill you, go ahead and do it yourself! You MISERABLE FAILURE!" The overlord spat as he ended the transmission.
Sir Pentious: "I... I... just make it quick I guess... not that I deserve it." He lies on the ground, with Vaggie holding a spear ready to pierce the skull.
Vaggie: "Gladly." Right before Vaggie can put him out of misery, Charlie stops her, and starts singing "It Starts With Sorry".
Charlie: "Wait! Pentious...."

Angel walks into frame with dual Tommy submachine guns in both hands with Vaggie tailing behind, holding her spear.
Angel Dust and Vaggie: ♫ Can't we just kill him? ♫
♫ Shoot him and spill his blood? ♫

Angel Dust and Vaggie: ♫ Works for us. ♫

As the song ends, Niffty is seen standing in the hallway in her bedwear, but is disappointed that Sir Pentious' song was bad, and that he is no longer a 'bad boy'.
Niffty: "I hated that song! Why are you so lame?!" She kicks him on his tail 'eyes' and walks away. "Not a bad boy."
Charlie: "Good first day! Let's get some rest!"
Roxas: "That's some pretty good singing there you two. And Pentious..."
Sir Pentious: "Yesssss?"
Roxas: "Are you willing to correct your mistakes and make an effort this time? No ulterior motives? Just... your own choice?"
Sir Pentious: "Yesssss... Yesssss I am! I won't let thissss opportunity go to waste! Thank you!"
As Charlie and the others leave with a wrist watch communicator still left in the office, Alice appears from the shadow of the dark hallway with a malevolent smile. She comes and picks up the watch before contacting Vox on the watch.
Vox: "WHAT?!?" He then pauses when he realizes that Alice is the one calling him, showing fear in his screen face as she laughs.
Alice: "You'll have to try harder than that next time, ol' pal!" She crushes the watch with her bare hand as Vox incoherently rages at her as the watch becomes incapable of creating audio, before Alice retreats back into the darkness, chuckling, as the episode ends.
