Line 1: {{work}} In hopes of finding some answers or some way out of ''[[Ink City]]'', [[Jimmy Two -Shoes\|Heloise]] turns her scientific eye upon the forest stretching along its eastern border. When all her attempts to gather information with robotic probes fail, she decides the best way to expose its secrets is to venture inside herself. But of course, no self-respecting [[Genre Savvy]] villainess would dare [[Don't Go in The Woods\|head into the woods]] ''alone''... not when there's an entire City of desperate, displaced people willing to risk their ''own'' lives in hopes of escape. So she informs others of her intent, and gathers a party of willing volunteers. At the appointed hour, most of them show up. As her closest friend, [[El Tigre\|Dr. Chipotle Jr.]] naturally shows up, along with the ever-irritating [[Animaniacs ~~(Animation)~~\|Yakko Warner]]... Despite their grim history together, [[Regular Show\|Mordecai and Benson]] both insist on coming along as well, as does their recently arrived friend Rigby. [[~~Bio~~BioShock ~~Shock~~(series)\|Eleanor Lamb]] and [[Darkwing Duck\|Megavolt]] also show up before Heloise decides she's sick of waiting and leads them into the woods. At first, the unlikely party makes good progress, hampered only by the usual personality clashes. Yakko banters playfully, getting on Heloise's nerves, while Mordecai decides to put his communicator's record feature to good use by filming everything. Line 20: Despite Eleanor's misgivings -- none of the others seem emotionally prepared to cope with Heloise's death -- they press forward, Audrey still crooning and leering behind them. Soon, just as he said, they reach the wall, and Yakko runs ahead, touching it. {{quote\| '''Mayor: STAY AWAY FROM THAT!'''}} With that, a pulsating ink blot appears behind the group. Introducing himself as the Mayor, he claims to be the one responsible for their being trapped in Ink City. And while he's been entertained by how poorly their trip's gone thus far, he's none too pleased with Yakko poking the [[Fourth Wall]]. So when Yakko does it ''again'', he causes their surroundings to ''shift'', growing FAR more foreboding... to say nothing of the swirling black abyss that yawns open beneath their feet. Line 30: Though Audrey II starts helping out, the numbers are simply too vast, and one by one the survivors start falling. When Veser falters, Audrey throws him right into the midst of a swarm... and Eleanor takes a gut shot while momentarily distracted. In the midst of all this, Yakko doesn't break. He ''[[Beware the Silly Ones\|snaps]]''. Hely's hammer in hand, seventy years' worth of mallet gags take on deadly new meaning, while Megavolt stands above the fallen Eleanor. {{quote\| '''Megavolt:''' Alright, you inky sons of bitches... ''[[Let's Get Dangerous~~\|Let's get DANGEROUS~~]]''.}} When the fighting grinds to a halt, the two of them are the only ones still standing. Beaten, bruised, and bleeding ink, but alive. Though as it sinks in just what he's done, Yakko can't help wondering if it was even worth it. Megavolt's attempts to console him don't help much, either: as he points out, they have to be prepared for more things like this to happen in the future, as they'll surely have to deal with the Mayor again... Line 44: ** Rigby's character is a [[Fridge Logic\|cutie]]? * [[Chainsaw Good]]: Benson's [[Weapon of Choice]] when Heloise offers armaments. * [[Deal ~~With~~with the Devil]]: Audrey II's offer for information and aid in exchange for a meal. * [[Does Not Understand Sarcasm]]: {{quote\| '''Eleanor:''' ...Pfft Hahaha Forest is the name of this place?}} * [[The Dog Bites Back]] * [[Dwindling Party]] * [[Entertainingly Wrong]]: Megavolt initially thinks the vines are just a sign his old pal/teammate Bushroot is skulking around the woods. This takes on a darker twist when Eleanor states that friend or not, they'll have to cut him down if he stands in their way... and Megs agrees. * [[Everything's Worse ~~With~~with Bears]]: Phoenix is very concerned about the possibility of running into bears in the woods. * [[Exact Words]]: The abyss that the Mayor claims will take them out? {{spoiler\|He means 'out of the forest'. By killing them for a quick respawn in the Well.}} * [[Fed to ~~The~~the Beast]] * [[For Massive Damage]]: Megavolt exploits Audrey II holding onto Mordecai's machete by zapping it with as much electricity as he can muster. Unleashing this actually knocks him out for the rest of the confrontation. * [[The Heartless]]: The ink monsters. * [[Heroic BSOD]]: Most of the group gets hit by this after Heloise is [[Eaten Alive]]. Eleanor points this out, but keeps it together herself... until she learns of Phoenix's fate. * [[Hoist Byby His Own Petard\|Hoist By Her Own Petard]]: Not only did Heloise bring along people she'd previously murdered as 'Meat Shields', once she learned what Audrey was after she ''immediately'' wanted to hand over Yakko. * [[I Choose to Stay]]: Mordecai thought the Mayor's portal would take everyone back to their ''own'' worlds. When he finds out he used [[Exact Words]] instead, Audrey notices his shocked reaction and [[Armor-Piercing Question\|asks why he didn't jump in if he thought that was the case]]. Mordecai doesn't answer. * [[I Gave My Word]]: The reason Eleanor BSOD'd over Phoenix's death: she'd promised to protect him. * [[Improvised Weapon]]: Benson brings several modified lawn tools along as potential weaponry. * [[It's Quiet... Too Quiet]]: Said word for word by Yakko shortly after entering. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: Eleanor is very cold, blunt, and to the point, but she still looks out for the rest of the group as best she can, despite ''knowing'' she can't protect everyone. * [[Just Eat Him]]: Audrey seems more interested in getting the group to willingly offer one of their own to him than just gobbling up all comers. He ''does'', however, gleefully chomp Chipotle's guacamole monster. * [[Just Shoot Him]]: Phoenix calls for this even before Audrey makes his offer. * [[Kitchen Sink Included]]: When Heloise breaks out the weaponry, Yakko makes the familiar joke. No kitchen sink actually appears, however. * [[Late to ~~The~~the Party]]: [[Hanna Is Not a ~~Boys~~Boy's Name\|Veser]] catches up to catch the tail end of the confrontation with Audrey. * [[Let's Get Dangerous]] * [[Not So Stoic]] [[Not So Above It All\|Or Above It All]]: When everyone is in shock following Heloise's death, Eleanor bluntly states they should turn back since they're all too weak to face death. She also makes clear that she simply can't protect everyone; anyone unwilling to fight is just dragging the group down. Later, she suffers a fatal lapse in concentration upon realizing she couldn't protect Phoenix. Line 74: * [[Symbol Swearing]]: Benson starts doing this after Mordecai finishes what he started. * [[This Is for Emphasis, Bitch]]: {{quote\| '''Mordecai:''' This is for {{spoiler\|ripping my heart out}}, you ''bitch''.}} * [[Thirteen Is Unlucky]]: Heloise had thirteen volunteers for the party. Not everyone showed up to make the trip, however... and those were arguably the lucky ones. * [[Throwing Your Sword Always Works]]: [[Zig -Zagging Trope\|Zig-Zagged]]: Mordecai throws his machete and hits Audrey right in the stalk, but the plant isn't phased and tugs it out with one vine. However, this gives ''Megavolt'' a shiny metal conductor to work with... * [[Unsound Effect]]: [[Running Gag\|camera camera camera]]. * [[Villainous Rescue]]: Audrey II helps fight the Mayor's hordes. Unfortunately, he also opts to get back at Veser during the battle...
