"Today you begin your training." Lou paces back and forth across a stage in front of the new dolls, "And I know that seems stressful, maybe a little scary. But remember: This is your purpose as a doll and I would never let you fail. I've dedicated my entire life to making sure you go to the Big World. That's right. I'm doing this for you, and you, and you." He points to random dolls, one of them being Nolan.
"Me?" he asks.
"Yes, you!"
"Wait, so that whole "You're ugly, you're trash." song, that was because you loved me?" Nolan asks, touched.
"Of course I love you. I love all of you and I will take you there!" Lou points to the sky as fireworks burst.
Everyone oohed and awwed at the sight.
"I wanna hate him. I mean, I really wanna dislike this guy. But I gotta respect the man's fireworks budget." Uglydog comments.
"Wooooooow." Isabella looked amazed by the fireworks.
Lou noticed this, "I'm so awesome! But I'm here to get you pretty. Because pretty makes perfect. And I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty great to me!" He starts to sing and dances off stage, "So let's get started!"
Isabella giggles at this.
"Do you want your clothes ruined by a tea party gone awry?" Lou spills some tea on a doll's desk, "Do you want to find yourself in the business end of a permanent marker?" he aims a marker near another doll.
"No!"
"And you!" He goes over to a third doll, "Your kid spent an hour styling your hair. But then, disaster strikes! Who's gonna get the gum out? Who?"
The doll freaks out, "I don't know!"
"Today you're going to practice how to avoid stains, smudges, and spills. Or as I like to call them, The S's of Messes."
Isabella giggles again, blushing slightly.
"Thank you. I actually came up with that one myself-"
The Uglydolls laugh as they squirt glue at each other, getting messy.
Isabella chuckles this time as Mandy and Elizabeth smile. However the laughter and smiles fade as Lou walks over to the Uglydolls.
"Sorry. Don't kids have fun getting messy?" Moxy asks, before pausing, "Wait...was this part of the test?"
"Yes, it was..." Lou looks over at Isabella before continuing, "And you passed!"
Moxy gasps, dropping the glue she was holding, "For real?!"
"Enjoy the Big World!" Lou gestures to the curtain.
It opened to reveal the portal.
"Thank you so much!" Moxy thanks him as she and the Uglydolls run over to the portal.
"I didn't think we'd ever make it." Wage says.
"I am wise." Lucky Bat adds.
"I'm gonna meet my child! Are you guys ready?" Moxy asks as they step through.
The light fades as it was revealed that they weren't going through the portal. In fact, that "portal" was actually a washing machine.
"What?" Moxy asks as the door closes behind them.
"This, students, is what happens to dolls who get messy." Lou says as the machine starts running, "They get put through the wash!"
The crowd gasps fearfully. Isabella shrinks in her seat, scared.
