Loudspeakers: We have a dare for the Scavenger Crew™! That's Wren, Leaf, and Ivy!

Ivy: Yes! What is it?

Leaf: *holding her hand* Does it involve Michael Jordan again?

Loudspeakers: Sorry, no. You have to infiltrate a Domino's and steal their recipe for stuffed-crust double pepperoni pizza.

Wren: Hah, that should be easy!

Loudspeakers: It's a dragon-operated Domino's, so you might have a bit of trouble.

Leaf: Dragons have Domino's Pizza?

Clay: Yeah, we do! And stuffed-crust double pepperoni pizza is the BEST! *sighs happily, daydreaming about pizza*

Loudspeakers: So, are you three ready?

Leaf: Sure!

Wren: Yes, sir. Or ma'am. Or whoever.

Ivy: Heck yeah!

Loudspeakers: You have 2 hours to complete your task. Good luck!

(They are teleported to an alley behind the Domino's. Wren immediately takes cover under a couple of Dumpsters. The other two follow her.)

Leaf: This place smells terrible!

Wren: *whispering* Shhh! This is an undercover mission!

Leaf: *also whispering* Whoops. Sorry.

(A SandWing opens the restaurant's back door and drops a bag of garbage into the Dumpster. As he heads back in, Wren, Ivy, and Leaf run inside with him.)

Wren, who is sticking close to the walls: We need to find where they keep their recipes.

Ivy: I'll climb that table and dangle a rope down!

Wren: Sure, just don't fall.

SandWing Waiter: *shouting from outside the kitchen* We have an order for 1 large stuffed-crust double pepperoni pizza!

SandWing Chef 1: On it! *takes a recipe card out of a box and sets it on the counter*

Wren: It's our lucky day. Ivy, hurry and get up there!

Ivy: *reaches the top of the table leg and ties the rope to a rolling pin* Alright, come on up!

(She throws the rope down and Wren and Leaf climb up)

Leaf: How do we get to the counter, though?

Wren: I've got this.

(She pulls the rope up and makes a slipknot at the end)

Wren: *lassoes a salt shaker on the counter* Okay, let's go! *grabs a toothpick from a little box on the table*

Leaf: What are we supposed to do with-

Wren: *uses the toothpick to zipline across the rope* WOOHOO!!!

SandWing Chef 2: *stops slicing mushrooms for a second* Did you hear something?

SandWing Chef 1: Nope.

SandWing Chef 2: Oh. Okay, then. *continues working*

Leaf and Ivy: *zipline to the counter*

Wren: We need to grab the recipe card and get out of here.

Ivy: Shouldn't be too hard! *sneaks forward and picks up the card*

SandWing Chef 1: Hey! What the- SCAVENGERS IN THE KITCHEN!

*Ratatouille theme*

Ivy: OH SHOOT! *runs back to Wren and Leaf, dragging the card*

SandWing Chef 2: WHERE? *grabs a meat cleaver*

Wren: *swears* GET BACK TO THE TABLE!

(The Scavenger Crew™ each grab one corner of the recipe card and hold onto the rope with their other hands.)

SandWing Chef 2: *swings the cleaver, slicing the rope*

(The other side of the rope swings across the kitchen, carrying Wren, Leaf, Ivy, and the recipe card with it. Screaming, they are thrown into the corner.)

Wren: RUN!!!

Leaf: *nearly loses his autographed sneaker* AAUGH! THEY HAVE MOUSETRAPS!

(They sprint towards the exit as fast as their feet can carry them)

Wren: *dives through the gap under the door and turns to help drag the recipe card behind her*

Ivy: *rolls under the door* Leaf! Come on!

Leaf: *crawls through* I'm coming! I'm coming!

SandWing Chef 2: *opens the door right above their heads, forcing them all to duck or get a concussion* THERE YOU ARE! *raises meat cleaver*

The Scavenger Crew™: *screams and runs under the Dumpster*

SandWing Chef 2: YOU THINK YOU CAN HIDE? JUST YOU WAIT, I'LL-

SandWing Chef 1: Larry? We sort of need to keep working. Those customers will want their pizza.

SandWing Chef 2(Larry): *glares murderously at the trio of thieves* Scavengers...

Wren: *panting from the running* That was way too close.

Ivy: It was! He almost caught us!

Leaf: Hello? Voices in the ceiling? We're ready to go back now.

(They get zapped back to the arena)

Daffodil: You're back! Was it fun?

Butterfly: *gazing anxiously at Leaf* Was it scary?

Ivy, to Daffodil: Yeah, it was awesome! We almost didn't make it out, but we managed.

Leaf, whispering to Butterfly: ...yes.

Loudspeakers: Great job! You completed your mission in 1 hour, 26 minutes, and 43 seconds. Now please put the recipe in this photocopier machine.

(A photocopier appears)

Wren: *puts the recipe card in*

(Copies of the recipe for stuffed-crust double pepperoni pizza start flying out. There is one for everybody except Cottonmouth.)

Clay: HOORAY! *hugs his copy* This is my life's #1 dream!

Peril: 🤨

Clay: ...my life's #2 dream, after marrying you.

Sunny: *reading the recipe* It looks so good... but I'm vegetarian.

Glory: You can leave out the pepperoni.

Clay: I'll take yours! :3

Sunny: ok

Loudspeakers: Next up, we'll be bringing the stage back for another song, this one starring...
