We later met up with Curtis and the Toy back at Scott's office, where the Toy was dancing in front of the mirror. Curtis then handed him the Handbook and told him he needed to read it. The Toy then went over to the desk and started going through it when Abby entered with her cocoa tray. When she noticed 'Scott's' different appearance, we made up another excuse that she seemed to believe. She eventually left after the Toy excitedly tried the drink and loved it, sending her for more.
After a few hours of that, we brought him through the workshop, where he started to loudly tell everyone that they were doing 'a wonderful job.' We told him that he was doing good, but needed to bring the volume down just a little bit. The Toy then wandered off to practice for a bit, giving the three of us a small moment.
"Why don't you two just say it?" Curtis asks us, "You were right, we were wrong."
"Okay, I admit it." Bernard says, "You're happy, working hard, everything's going to be fine."
Before either of us could say anything else, the Toy returned.
"You know, this book is very interesting reading. There's a lot of rules here they're not following."
"That's what I've been saying." Curtis says, "Things have gotten a little too sloppy around here."
"Sure they have." I say sarcastically, folding my arms.
"Right!" the Toy says, not catching my sarcasm, "And sloppiness means mistakes. And mistakes AREN'T A GOOD THING!" After shouting that last bit, he looks at each of us. "I might have to make some changes around here."
"What did you have in mind, boss?" Curtis asks as the Toy leads him away somewhere, leaving Bernard and I.
"I think you spoke a bit too soon there, dear." I say, putting a hand on his shoulder.
"I think you might be right," He says, and we hurry over to catch up with Curtis.
