Fan walks back to the hotel, he knew who he was gonna give to Lightbulb. But he needed to be subtle

Fan walks up Paper

Fan: Hey Paper, can you come to my room real quick, I think there's a leak in the bathroom

Paper: Sure! Let me just tell Oj, then I'll check in out!

Fan: No! It's really bad. Just come see

Paper: If it's bad I guess I can slow it down before getting Oj.

Paper walks with Fan to their room. Paper checks the bathroom for a leak

Paper: I don't see anything Fan

Fan: It's there just keep looking while I get the tape!

Fan grabs the taser and tases Paper knocking them out.

Fan drags Paper down the hole which was pretty easy since he's, well, paper.

Fan took Paper all the way to Lightbulb's throne room.

Lightbulb looks at who Fan brought.

Queen Lightbulb: Oh! You brought them here! Drop him off at the lab, they'll take care of him

Fan does what he was told. He was about to exit the room but then Lightbulb grabs his arm

Queen Lightbulb: We need to talk...

Fan "spine" shrived in fear as Lightbulb took him to her bedroom

Fan: Is it because I took too long to finish the mission?! I'll be faster next time I swear-

Lightbulb shushes him, and grabs his shoulders to sit him down on her bed

Queen Lightbulb: Sit

Lightbulb sits next to Fan with a sigh coming out of her

Lightbulb: I've been thinking Fan, you've showed me nothing but kindness even after everything I did to you. I know why you really came back down here, so answer this. Why do you think of me as a friend even after everything I did to you, Paintbrush, and Test Tube?

Fan: I thought you still had that old silly personality, and I thought if I brought it back you would come with me back to the hotel.

Fan starts to tear up

Fan: Ever since you disappeared nothing was really the same. Paintbrush wasn't normal, Oj was always in panic and Test Tube lost sleep trying to find you. I tried to be like you, I tried to stay positive during the time of panic but I was also in pain.

Lightbulb saw Fan was gonna cry, she didn't know what to do. She never had someone cry in sadness for years. No one tried to come to her for comfort

Lightbulb: No need to cry... would it make you feel better if I said I would remove the Tracker?

Fan: What?

Lightbulb: Since you've been so nice to me, I believe it's only fair I return the favor. I'll remove the tracker, if you promise to still come here everyday, and keep treating me like a friend...

Fan eyes widened, Lightbulb was giving him freedom, he smiled at the simple fact, Lightbulb was making progress.

Fan: I promise, I will come back everyday.

Lightbulb: Good...

Lightbulb looks away blushing before giving Fan a hug. This surprised Fan, but he soon hugged back

After Lightbulb stopped hugging Fan, she got up and walked to the door

Lightbulb: Go to the lab, they'll remove the tracker. And Fan don't tell anybody about what happened here. I don't want them to use it as weakness.

Fan: I won't. Showing emotion isn't weakness though Lightbulb

Lightbulb looks down

Lightbulb: It is with my status.

Lightbulb walks away

Fan goes to the lab and got the tracker removed, and it was back to the surface for him.
