(Start in Octo Valley. ZAKI comes out of the grate already suited up.)
Callie-Are you sure you want to be doing this, Zaki? Shouldn't you be recovering from last night?
Zaki-Nope. We have to keep going. The Great Zapfish isn't too far away.
Callie-I think you're forgetting what happened to you, what happened to me, and most importantly, what happened to me. We can't be running around the Valley in this condition.
Marie-Kara's right. The past couple of days have been a whirlwind. We need to be taking a break.
(She launches to kettle 26.)
Zaki-Here it is.
Callie-I think we should let the dyes completely flush from our systems before going back in there.
Zaki-We? You're only talking about me. You haven't touched dyes in years!
Callie-That's where you're wrong. I thought you already knew we were actually doing stuff, too. At least, we were. We're going to be confined to the mission control booth for a long time.
Zaki-Does that mean...
Callie-We won't be with you to fight the final boss.
Zaki-Come on, Callie! You can come! Wouldn't raw fury be an asset in a huge fight like this?
Callie-Not when it goes too far.
Zaki-And Marie, you're absolutely fine. You can still come even if Callie is in mission control.
Marie-Where my sister goes, I go.
(ZAKI huffs.)
Marie-I'm going to tell you one more time, Zaki. Leave now and take a break.
(ZAKI looks at her fingers. They're still purple.)
Zaki-I think I'll be fine.
(She dives into the kettle. Opening theme. She comes up on the right home base of Saltspray Rig. Her ink color is light blue. She takes one step off the pad. Quick shot of a black Octoling standing on top one of the billboards.)
Callie-They could spring from anywhere, Agent 3!
Zaki-What could spring from anywhere?
Marie-Octolings! Over to you, Agent 3, you delightfully crazy squid.
(ZAKI rolls her eyes and advances forward. The black Octoling jumps down onto some boxes next to her and begins firing.)
Callie-OK! Time to catch us a zapfish!
Zaki-Don't talk right now! I'm busy!
(She fires back, splatting the Octoling.)
Zaki-Ha! I won that one! Deal with it!
(She runs to the left. She goes down the ramp onto the lower landing. An Octoling lands on the boxes in the middle and fires in the other direction. ZAKI chuckles and raises her gun to fire. Then the Octoling jumps down and runs straight towards her.)
Zaki-Oh, squid.
(She takes the Octoling out in three shots. She inadvertently shoots open a box with an Inkzooka inside. She picks it up.)
Callie-Inkzooka! Let 'em have it!
(ZAKI looks around. There are no other Octolings in sight.)
Zaki-Let who have it?
(She shrugs and runs back up the ramp. She turns left and keeps going. There's an Octoling at the end of the walkway firing at her. She dodges her fire and stops to reload. The Octoling seems to have passed. She starts running again. As she gets to the top of the last ramp, she sees the Octoling firing at her. ZAKI fires up the Inkzooka and takes her out in one shot.)
