It's been two days ever since Halloween ended......Thanksgiving will be coming up soon....Cuphead's still sleeping in bed.....something is not right.....
Chalice turns to Mugman.
Chalice: Mugs?
Mugman: Yeah?
Chalice: Can you go check on your brother?
Mugman: Sure. It's 10 in the morning and he's not up.
Mugman went upatairs.

In the bedroom, Cuphead got out of bed, his nose all red and stuffy..
Cuphead: (sneezes) Oh, no.....
Cuphead got out of bed in pain.
Cuphead: Ow.....(cough)
Cuphead got dressed and opens the bedroom door to find Mugman in the doorway.
Mugman: Oh! Cups! I was about to check on you. Are you okay?
Cuphead: Yep, I'm okay.....don't worry about it....
Cuphead went downstairs, coughing.
Mugman: Something's not right here.....
Mugman went downstairs to find Cuphead collapsed on the couch.
Chalice: Is he okay?
Mugman: I don't think he is.
Chalice: Is he sick?
Mugman: I don't know, but I'm about to find out.
Mugman gently taps Cuphead on the shoulder.
Mugman: Cups? Are you sure you're okay.
Cuphead: (muffled) Yeah, I'm okay.....I'm just tired. (muffled sneeze)
Mugman: Okay, that's it. You're going back to bed.
Cuphead: No, I'm fine, really.
Mugman: You're clearly sick and you need to rest.
Mugman carries Cuphead upstairs.
Mugman: Chalice, call a doctor.
Chalice: I'm already on it.

Later. Chalice hears a knock on the door. She opens the door.
Chalice: Hello, doctor.
Doctor: Hello again, Chalice.
Chalice: My friend is sick and we don't know what's causing it.
Doctor: I'll know. Where is your friend?
Chalice: He's upstairs with his brother.
~
Upstairs, Mugman sits on the edge of ths bed feeling his big brother's forehead.
Mugman: You're really burning up....
Cuphead: (sneezes)
Mugman hears the door knock.
Mugman: It's open!
The doctor opens the door.
Doctor: Hello again, Mugs.
Mugman: Hi, Doc. My brother doesn't feel well and we don't know why.
Doctor: Well, does he have a high fever?
Mugman: He does because I felt his forehead and it's hot.
Doctor: Did he eat something bad?
Mugman: I don't think so.....
The doctor does more check-ups on Cuphead and when he's finally done, he told the results.
Doctor: Well, it's confirmed. He's running a high fever and stuffy nose. Nothing serious. But there's one thing.
Mugman: W-what is it?
Doctor: Did you and your brother go trick or treating on Halloween?
Mugman: Yes, we did. Why?
Doctor: Have you heard the rumors going around that some people put drugs in some of the candy?
Mugman: Yeah, we checked our candy and we only had a few drugs in them.
Doctor: I think your brother got ahold of one. Luckily, that drug is a safe one, so he's lucky to be alive.
Mugman: Thank goodness.
Doctor: Welp, I'm off. I got another patient to take care off. Make sure your brother gets plently of rest.
Mugman: I will.
Chalice: I'll walk you out, sir.
Chalice escorts the doctor downstairs while Mugman looks at Cuphead, who is asleep.
Mugman: (whispers) I'm so glad no dangerous drugs got in you.....get some rest and feel better. I'm gonna take good care of you, brother.
Mugman hugs his sleeping brother gently and quietly closes the door.
Mugman went downstairs.
Chalice: So?
Mugman: He fell asleep on me, so I had to be quiet to not wake him up.
Chalice: Good.
~
Mugman spent the whole day taking care of Cuphead to make sure he gets some rest and eats well. Close to nighttime, Cuphead is sleeping and Mugman looks out the window to the sunset.
Mugman: Elder Kettle, hope you're doing great up there. Cuphead is sick right now but I'm taking good care of him.....hope you're taking care of yourself up there as well.....
Mugman tears up a little and Chalice walks in.
Chalice: Ready to go to sleep now?
Mugman: Yeah. (yawns)
Mugman went into his bed and falls asleep. Chalice went on her mattress and falls asleep as well.
~
The next day, Cuphead wakes up, feeling alot better.
Cuphead: Ahh.....I feel so much better.....
Mugmam hugs his brother.
Cuphead: Whoa! Hey, Mugs! You're awake already.
Mugman: I'm just glad you didn't swallow any dangerous drugs that was in the candy.
Cuphead: I'm sorry, what?
Mugman: It doesn't matter. What matters is that you're feeling better.
Cuphead: I guess so.....I'm glad, too.
Mugman: By the way, you're going to therapy in a few days.
Cuphead: Yeah.....I know......
