Twinkles is having a bad day.

His good intentions of helping Sooty with BonBon backfired on him and now he's ended up in a car with Bonbon driving to what looks like ... Stab City?

It's not that Twinkles regrets saving Sooty. He'd do it again in a heartbeat. Twinkles was just wishing that he was smart enough to have the foresight of asking for backup.

He informed Chatty that he saw Bonbon earlier. But that was a while ago.Twinkles didn't know what would happen to him.

He tried to listen and understand what Bonbon was saying on the phone. All that Twinkles got is that he's asking Ray and Chatty to come to their location. And that Bonbon has something for Twinkles.

He chattered away, saying thank you to Bonbon for thinking of him. It was sweet!

Twinkles sometimes feels like people forget about him.

He got up the stage, waiting patiently while Bonbon tied his wrists with zipties. Twinkles' mind couldn't help but wander.

What did Bonbon have planned for Ray and Chatty? Twinkles couldn't bear if anything happened to the two of them.

Out of all the clowns, they were two of Twinkles' most favorite. They were nice and they valued their friendship together.

Chatterbox has always had Twinkles' back and vise versa. He is a good friend to Twinkles and he makes sure that Twinkles is okay.

That talk with Chatty where he confessed to having feelings for Ray Mond? That showed Twinkles how much Chatty valued him. It showed that Chatty wanted to be honest with Twinkles.

Chatty is a good friend and a good leader for the Clowns. A good king. He cares for everyone and makes sure that everyone is okay. Even Twinkles.

And Ray Mond... Twinkles' mind couldn't find the right words to say what he felt about her. She was like the sun. Talking to her and getting to know her has been so fun. Twinkles never thought that he would do those things for someone, like writing a song. But Twinkles did, for Ray.

Even earlier in the day, they were trying to go back to their friendship. Twinkles knew that Ray treasured their friendship as well because she took the time out of her day to go with Twinkles to his favorite spot. She took the time to listen and to understand. And more than that, she wasn't afraid of what might happen if —no, when— Eugene comes. She was a ray of sunshine, wanting to be everyone's friend.

Twinkles heard a car rumbling, and Bonbon did too.

"Come on in!" he shouted, "Step up to the stage! Enjoy the show"

Ray's car came into view, and Twinkles could see them getting out while whispering to each other.

Twinkles watched them walk towards the stage.

"Hiii" he said, unable to help himself from greeting them even in the dire situation.

"Hi Twinkles" Ray's voice said softly. She was obviously worried for Twinkles as she slowly but surely walked closer to the stage, Chatty right behind her.

"Aren't we lucky? We're in the presence of royalty!" Bonbon exclaimed, his voice full of malice and a hint of insanity. He was obviously becoming more and more erratic.

"Shut the yuck up, Bonbon" Chatty said, anger in his voice.

Twinkles could see Bonbon get more annoyed by this, his jaw ticking and his eyes flashing madly underneath his mask.

"Y'know what, Chatty? We're gonna play a little game here. Let's see which one of you cares more about your subjects!" Bonbon said, his hands gesturing wildly to Twinkles. "One of you has to choose to take his place" he continued.
