[Aglet and Periscope are in Aglet's kitchen. Aglet is writing something down on a paper.]
Aglet: Alright, great. We have everything filled in except the address.
Periscope: And how do we expect to get that without leaving the house?
Aglet: ... We can't.
Periscope: We need to go there.
Aglet: But what if-
Periscope: I don't care: It's worth it for Dice.
Aglet: Well... I guess if you're really sure...
Periscope: You don't have to come with me. I can figure it out on my own.
Aglet: But I want to go. Just to make sure you're ok, at least. And what if you can't find it?
Periscope: I know where I'm looking.
Aglet: I really don't think this is a good idea. It's not safe.
Periscope: If it were safe, we wouldn't need the address to begin with.
[Periscope gets up from the table.]
Periscope: Thank you for doing the formal part.
Aglet: Peri-
Periscope: You aren't coming with me.
[Periscope begins to walk out of the kitchen.]
Aglet: Periscope.
Periscope: Aglet. I'm going. I'll be back. It's not a big deal.
[Periscope stops before leaving the room.]
Periscope: I have a plan. Don't worry.
[Periscope walks out of frame. The door is heard opening and closing.]
Aglet: Don't get caught.
[The camera cuts to the scene of the Edge. Dice and Pipette are sitting on the ground, as seen in the previous episode. Dice looks shocked.]
Dice: We have to go now. We have to tell them.
Pipette: We can't. And, it doesn't matter. I sent back an anti-request. They won't be living with you.
Dice: Pipette. We have to tell them.
Pipette: They're all going to be coming soon anyways, just let them find out on their own.
Dice: ... How soon?
Pipette: I mean, they plural, and they're going to start arriving this week.
Dice: Buttered biscuits, Pipe, this is a big thing to have kept to yourself.
Pipette: What was I supposed to do? You weren't talking to me. Whatever, let's just go back. You can hide out at my house for a while. At least for a few days.
[The camera cuts to Pipette and Moe's living room. Moe is sitting alone, reading a newspaper, because there will only ever be two people living in their house, and Pipette is currently in what I imagine to be a thinly forested area that is strewn with random junk items. The door is heard opening.]
Periscope, out of frame: Pipette?
Moe: Pipette's not here. Please learn how to knock.
Periscope, walking into frame: Butterscotch. I really needed a favor.
Moe: Is this about Dice?
Periscope: This is about something bigger than just Dice, but yeah, why?
