 Previously on, Escape the Night. The guests arrive at an amusement park to meet each other for the first time. Everything is good and fun until Hollie and Wengie get taken. They soon realize this park is not what it seems, and if they want to escape then they must collect nine artifacts, but for each, somebody must die. Alex pretends to be one of the mascots and infiltrates their base, but is caught. Hollie and Lizzie are voted in, and Hollie pays with her life. Lizzie retrieves the first artifact.

Before the guests arrived. "Work work work," the man says. "All it is is work. I want to have fun creating rides, but this isn't. All they care about it money."

A hooded figure comes up behind the man, "I can make that happen for you." He holds out the artifact, a boulder with a trident. "Take it, and this ride will be whatever you want." The man takes the artifact.

A group of business people come to ride the new ride. Trident's Wrath, they all get ready but the ride is flooded by the now transformed man. He is now a creature with the strength of gods, he floods the ride and drowns everybody inside.

The next part of the map is now revealed. A drawer opens up behind them, inside is a scroll. Llama grabs it, and then reads it. Greed paved the path to this person's doom. However, not in the way you might think. Everybody he worked with only cared about money. But that's not how this person thought. He wanted to get rid of them, so he made a deal with the devil. He took a wicked artifact and turned into a God. The next time his greedy coworkers stepped into that ride, he flooded it and turned them into his warriors.

"So we are fighting a god?" Sophie asks. "Where do we even start?"

"Let's just go out there and see if we can find anything," Calliope says. The group walks out of the castle and into the new section. They begin searching but can't find anything.

"Are we looking in the wrong spot?" Amelia asks.

"Well we never got a clue," Llama says.

Llama - We really have no lead. We never got a clue of where to look, or even what we are looking for.

The group decides to head back inside to discuss what they should do.

Guy - We are lost, we do not know what the heck to do.

"We don't know what to do at all!" Duck says. "We lite-"

Duck is interrupted by the door to their room opening, and a fish man walking inside.

"Uhm?" Amelia says. "I don't think he should be in here!"

Kalani - So this fish man walks in, and we see he has a huge, golden fish hook in his hand. This does not look good!

"Stay back!" Lizzie screams.

The fish man gets closer to the group and gets up to Kalani. He jams the hook into Kalani's stomach, and rips it out, leaving Kalani dead on the floor. WIthout saying a word, the fish man leaves.
