"I'm right!" Said Gumball.
"You're wrong!" Argued Jamie. Darwin slowly stepped in between them with is buck tooth smile.
"Hey guys lets just agree to disagree!" He said.
"Gumball Watterson does not admit defeat!" Shouted Gumball, raising his fists.
"It's not admitting defeat." Explained Darwin "it's admitting you're a flawed being that makes mistakes like all of us!" Jamie took a step forward.
"Yeah, well,if you think you're so right, you'll play tag over it." She said angrily. Darwin and Banana Joe both covered their own mouth in shock.
"Whoa! Tag? Hey guys, we're all friends here!" Said Banana Joe anxiously "Let's not do anything we'll regret!" Jamie simply squeezed Banana Joe's skin sending his insides flying into the air.
"Alright you're on!" Said Gumball bravely "I'll play your g-" Darwin cut him off by clamping his lips together with his fins.
"Gumball no!" He exclaimed.
"Dude I got this!" Said Gumball, slapping his hand over Darwin's mouth. He fumbled around in his pocket for a bit.
"So, Jamie?" Questioned Gumball, holding up a shiny quarter. "Do you want heads or tails?"
Jamie slowly backed away, beginning to sweat.
"Um, actually, you know what? Nevermind" Jamie looked at the shiny coin, still held firmly in Gumball's hand. "Let's just say you're right."
"Let's just say I'm right?" Gumball looked Jamie in the eye "But do you believe I'm right, Jamie" he then narrowed his eyes "Do you feel it?" Jamie gulped and pulled on the neck of her shirt.
"Please Gumball, no!" Darwin fell to his knees "No tag! Think of out family, our beautiful but strange family!" Gumball looked down at him.
"Dude it's just a game!"
"Is Russian roulette just a game?" Asked Darwin, now lying on the floor.
"No," Gumball answered "Russian roulette is an important multicultural game that bridges the subtle divide between Russia and Las Vegas!" Darwin made an unimpressed face.
"Now call it!" Said Gumball, tossing the coin into the air.
"Uhhhh tails!" Jamie said quickly.
"Nooooooo!" Screamed Darwin as the coin landed back on Gumball's had revealing the words- 'GUMBALL IS IT'
"What an oddly specific coin..." Said Gumball. Darwin looked at the coin with an expression of despair.
"Y-you're it..." He whispered.
"But I won't be it for long!" Said Gumball, reaching out to tag Jamie. But all that was left was a dust cloud.
"Eh?"
"Well there's plenty of other people to tag!" Exclaimed Gumball as he turned to the crowded hallway. But within a couple of seconds, the whole corridor was empty. Even Darwin was gone.
