The next day fighting against Sonic and friends was a disaster. Everyone was laughing at Eggette. They called her "Eggette Crayon" and "Night of the Living Lollipop."
She tried her best to act as if everything was normal, But It was distracting Dr. Eggman he was defeated so easily.
When Eggette was defeated, Her stripes turned plaid!
Sonic and friends thought this was great. Sonic yelled out, "Let's see some purple polka dots!" Sure enough, Eggette turned all purple polka-dotty. Shadow shouted, "Checkerboard!" and a pattern of squares covered her skin. Soon everyone was calling out different shapes and colors, and poor Eggette was changing faster then you can change channels on a T.V.
That night Orbot and Cubot had a talk with Dr. Eggman.
"I'm sorry Dr. Eggman," Orbot said. "I'm going to tell you to keep Eggette home. She's just too much of a distraction, and Metal Sonic got a call from your ex wife Estella. She's afraid those stripes may be contagious."
"Yeah, Sage and Maverick is not coming this weekend which that explains why you never get more custody weekends or paying child support." said Cubot.
Eggete was embarrassed. She couldn't believe that her two best friends liked her. Now, nobody wanted to be in the same room with her.
Dr. Eggman tried to make her feel better. "Is there anything I can get you, sweetheart?" he asked.
"No, thank you," sighed Eggette. What she really wanted was a nice plate of lima beans, but she had been laughed at enough for one day.
"Hmm well, yes, i see," Dr. Quack mumbled when Dr. Eggman phoned the next day. "I think I'd better bring in the Specialists. We'll be right over."
About an hour later. Dr. Quack arrived with four people in long white coats. He introduced them to Dr. Eggman. "This is Dr. Hart, Dr, Caddel, Dr, Barlowe, and Dr. Whitlock."
Then the Speacialists went to work on Eggette. They squeezed and jabbed, tapped and tested. It was very uncomfortable.
"Well it's not the mumps." concluded Dr. Hart.
"Or the measles." said Dr. Caddel.
"Definitely not chicken pox." put in Dr. Barlowe.
"Or sunburn," said Dr. Barlowe.
"Try these," said the Speacialists.
They each handed her a bottle filled with different colored pills.
"Take one of each before bed," said Dr. Caddel.
Then they filed out the front door, followed by Dr. Quack.
