               DOWN IN THE MAN CAVE, the four teens were emptying out cans of Frittle chip to get the platinum chip they'd needed in order for them to go to Frittle Land.

            Charlotte and Jasper were emptying the cans, searching through the chips whilst Thea and Henry used the cans to stack a pyramid.

         Suddenly the elevator doors opened and Ray walked into the room. "Do you guys notice anything different about me?" He asked.

"Did you get a haircut?"
"Lose weight?"
"Gained weight?"
"Nose job?"

            "I bought a sword!" Ray announced and pulled out a large katana. "KATANA!" He screamed and ran straight towards them, waving the weapon around.

           Henry grabbed Thea's arm and pulled her out of the way when  Ray hit the pyramid of stacked cans causing for it to tumble down.

          He then cut up all the chips on the table and the kids were yelling for him to stop. "Do you love it?" He happily asked.

"No!"
"Hate it!"
"Terrified!"
"You're an idiot!"

         "What, it's a sword?" He looked at them in disbelief. "I can use it to slice things, dice things, fight ninjas, make sure my hair looks perfect, which it does."

          "Or accidentally kills us because you're completely reckless?" Charlotte fired back.

"That is my concern."
"She makes a fair point."
"Terrified."

          "I'm not reckless!" Ray scoffed and picked up a can from the ground. "Oh, Jasper. Put this can on your head and so I can cut it in half."

           Jasper placed the can on his head and looked at his friends. "Help me." He whispered.

            Henry and Thea walked up to Ray. "These cans aren't for sword practice." He told and took the can off Jasper's head.

          "Anything can be used for sword practice, that's what so great about swords." Ray said.

          "Well, it has to wait. Because the four of us are trying to find thee Platinum Frittle Chip for us to win a prize." Thea informed.

         "You know what can find a platinum Frittle chip?"

         "Please don't say your sword is. . ." Henry muttered.

           Thea nudged him. "He's gonna say it."

"Justice!"
"Oh, he didn't—"
"Which is the name of my sword!"

       "And there it is." Thea rolled her eyes and grabbed Henry's hand to pull him away from their childish boss.

         "If you want in on the Frittle prize then you have to put the sword away." Charlotte told.

        "Fine," Ray went to put his sword in its holder but missed it and the weapon fell onto the floor. "Pretend that worked." He picked up the katana and struggled to put it back inside until he finally did. "So, what's the Frittle prize you're talking about, eh?"
