__3rd Person POV__

As the group enters the maze to the administration, they were all confused about where to start. Luckily, Henry and Allie did, so they lead the group on what to do.

They started to walk from the ink puddle to a lobby. 

"The film vault is where we must go. Best if we separate. if there's a monster, kill it. If Bendy find you, run to the nearest miracle stations. The maze sadly won't have them. " Henry says.

"To open the film vault, get some ink blobs and use the ink maker, it will turn into the parts to drain the vault. Good idea Henry. If we separate, the job will be done much easier, but someone has to watch the twins."

"We can handle this!" Dipper says, frustrated. 

"Dipper, if you die, you die. You're not an indie like them. If you die, you won't return to Gravity Falls. So someone will have to watch you. Period." Allie strikes back.

He groans and crosses his arms. At this point the twins looked different than they were before. Bandages, some of their clothes were torn, some parts were stitched. Ink on their legs, clothes, arms, and some little splatters on their face.

Alice eventually volunteered to watch the twins, like some kind of act of redemption for her. Allison and Tom went together in the maze, then Allie and Henry followed, they went their separate ways, as the three enter Joey drew's office to hide. There were multiple audio logs from him. Mabel sat down on Susie's lap, who was sitting on Joey's chair.

"A small memo to all administration offices: Rumors have begun to fly that we simply can't tolerate any longer. The idea that the company is in some form of financial difficulty is untrue and a slanderous lie against us. It's also been known to me that some backroom incompetents are not trusting in my leadership. As a leader, I'm always steering the boat, guiding our destiny. Looking at the big picture. No need for you people to worry about such complicated things. Just do whatever it is you do and trust your leader... which is me."

"Liar," Alice says.

Mabel ignored this and continued to play other audio logs that she stacked beside her.

"Listen Tommy, I know you boys over at Gent are doing your best, but I'm paying for living attractions, not weird abominations! Whatever that grinning thing was I saw wandering around your office, you better keep it locked up tight! I realize it was a first attempt but imagine if the press caught sight of it! Might scare off investors! And in response to your previous memo: If you claim your failures are because these things are soulless, then, damn it, we'll get them a soul! After all, I own thousands of 'em!"

Mabel shivers. Dipper quietly listens.

"Thomas had to do with this?" He asks.

"Yes, but he wasn't very happy that his friends were getting killed, he was getting even more suspicious of Joey when he wanted to have a perfect Alice Angel, which means he wanted Allison," Susie replies.

"I know how much this part means to ya, Susie. Alice means a lot to me too. Gosh, all of my characters do! In fact, I'll let you in on a little secret. I too really believe my characters are more than just drawings. They're alive. They're part of us. And I want people to know them as well as I do. I want people to be able to shake their hands, spend an afternoon with 'em. Love them. Susie, I'll be straight with you. I'm putting together a small project... a little ceremony if you will. If it works, a lot of dreams will come true. And I want you to be a part of it. ...I want you to bring Alice to life once again. What do ya say?"
