The clock tower's counter was eerily close to reading "000 Days", with the one teetering right off the edge of its roller. From a window in the Hotel, Bendy watched with concern as he sighs and walks away. He plops on the couch as KeeKee teleports into his lap.
KeeKee: You seem tense.
Bendy: Of course I'm tense, Kee. With all this shit involving dwindling Sinner intake, the recent drama between Angel and my father, along with this Order of Urdak planning to kill all demonkind, this Cleanse could be a teetering point for all we know!
KeeKee: It is only a standard Cleanse, Ben. We simply stay inside the Hotel, due to its blessing, we will remain safe.
Bendy: Yeah, true. I just hope Niffty and Velvet get back in time with the food and supplies we'll need to last the day. *sighs* I need to go to the bathroom.
He gets off the couch and heads over to the nearby restroom near the Husk's Place bar, as he grips the doorknob, an unfamiliar voice calls out.
???: Someone's in here!
Bendy: Oh, gotch- Hey, wait a minute, what the hell?!
With wide eyes, Bendy opens the door, revealing a literal elephant on the toilet, playing on his phone in landscape mode.
Bendy: Oh, uh... Excuse me....
Elephant: Good evening....
Bendy: ....*yells upstairs* Charlie, since when in the fuck does an elephant live here?!
Charlie: He's an exchange student!
Bendy: Oh, right, I forgot. Well... How long does it normally take you?
Elephant: I dunno. I don't remember.
Bendy: Oh my god, that is such bullshit. I hope my daughter's having a better time with your family!
The scene then cuts to Africa, where Vivian is seen panickily rushing away from a bunch of humans in a jeep alongside the herd of elephants.
Vivian: *screams* POACHERS!
Back at the Hotel, Bendy rolls his eyes and closes the door just as Niffty's voice calls in from off-screen before Bendy meets with them in the lobby.
Niffty: We're back!
Velvet: We got enough food, beers, and other such necessities to last us through the night.
Vaggie then comes in, looking at a clipboard.
Vaggie: And all the Sinners are in their rooms and everyone's accounted for. I'll get Ren to lower the shields and we can get started.
Outside, metal panels begin lowering in front of the doors and windows of the Hotel. However, a familiar humanoid shape smirked as it lunged at a nearby open window, slinking in as a black, spiked tendrils was torn off before the shields fully closed...
—---------------------------------------------
Just as the clock tower rang and the Exorcists rained down from the sky, Bendy and a bunch of the other Hotel residents gathered in the lobby. Each of them sat on a sleeping bag, air mattress, or the couch as they watched the News on TV.
Elvin Eavesdrop: Good evening, Pentagram, I'm Elvin Eavesdrop, reporting to you from the leisure of my living room. I'd thought I'd get tonight off, but apparently I gotta do my fucking job even in dystopia.
Moxxie: That... speaks volumes, honestly.
Blitz: Oh, like you know a dystopian workplace, Mox.
The shorter imp narrowed his eyes at his boss as the news went on.
