Seconds turn to minutes, minutes turn to hours, hours turn to days, Jeff is in his room mourning the loss of his relationship with Angela. He thinks about what she says and it hurts him because deep down he knows she's right, but he doesn't want to accept it. He goes on a binge, eating junk food and ice cream. He runs out of his favorite chips, until he remembers the power chips. He knows the consequences on what would happen, but he doesn't care. And so, he goes into the garage, finds the box that they're stashed in, and eats them. He eats them while he's in grieving pain, the effects of the chips are merging with his heart and mind. Telling them that there's no hope anymore, the world hates him, god is laughing at him, and that he's a worthless human being. Meanwhile in his head, the consciousness consisted of 2 Jeffs. One a stoic sort of fellow and the other who's just obnoxiously barbaric and lazy. They made their peace once due to the chip's psychological power. However, there is a new force brewing in Jeff's mind. A mixture of guilt, depression, regrets, and all the gruesome juices that flows through the being's body. The force creeps up to them when they least suspect it. 

Inner jeff 1: ooo.. I just got a chill down my spine

Inner jeff 2: eat a cheez it, it'll make you feel better 

The evil being strikes, it takes out the stoic one and makes its move on the barbarian. The other one put up quite a fight, but was no match for the diabolical figure. Afterwards, they become imprisoned in a makeshift mind jail.

Inner jeff 1: alright you, this isn't funny, let us out of here immediately or there will be consequences.

Inner jeff 2: leave this to me brother. ALRIGHT YOU JACKASS YOU BETTER LET US GO RIGHT EFFING NOW!!!!!

The figure looks at them and laughs

????: and what pray tell makes you think I'll believe your bluff? 

Inner jeff 1: how does he know you're - 

Inner jeff 2: SHUT IT

????: you may not remember me, but it's not a surprise considering I've been gone for many years…until now. You see, with the combined power of the power chips and Jeff's rotten mood, they've created a gateway for me to come in and shall I say it? Come and save the day.

Inner jeff 1: who are you? 

????: you may remember me as the 3rd inner Jeff, but these days I go by…vitriol

The Jeffs look at each other in disbelief. Meanwhile in the real world, Jeff is sleeping, vitriol takes his plan into action. With a few crank of levers and knobs, Jeff jumps out of bed, his mission: find Angela and make her pay. As Jeff walks out of his room, Murray senses a bad aura in the air. He hears heavy footsteps going by,so he jumps from his room and stops Jeff in his tracks.

Murray: Mind telling me where you're heading? 

Jeff: find angela, make her pay 

Murray: I don't think you want to do that mate.

Murray puts a hand on Jeff's shoulder,and Jeff grabs him and throws him to the wall in his room. Jeff opens the door and walks out of the house. 

Murray: This calls for reinforcements..

Back in Jeff's mind, the other 2 Jeffs are scheming a way to break out of their jail cell. Barbaric Jeff decides to use a hair clip to pick the lock on the cell. He manages to unlock it,and they proceed to sneak out and prepare to attack vitriol. They prepare to pounce on him, but he's one step ahead of them. As they lunge towards him, he grabs them and throws them to the floor. 

Vitriol: did you really think it would be that easy? 

Jeff2: yeah, kinda

Jeff 1: oh shut it.
