__3rd Person POV__

"Henry? So soon? I didn't expect you for another hour yet."

Henry, Allie, Dipper, and Mabel were on the ground, their eyes opened, right after the huge light shined on their eyes.

"I wonder if that light has damaged my eyes even more."Allie mumbles.

"You have bad eyesight?" Mabel asks.

"Yeah," Allie confirms.

The four get up and realize they weren't in the studio anymore.

"This is Joey's home," Henry says. The group enter the kitchen and were greeted by an old man washing the dishes.

"Now you're just trying to impress me. I know... I know... .. you have questions. You always do! "

The Quatuor sat down near the table, silent.

"The only important question is this: Who are we, Henry? 

I thought I knew who I was... 

... but... the success-starved me. 

Nothing left but lines on a page.

 In the end, we followed two different roads of our own making. 

You, a lovely family... 

... me... 

... a crooked empire. 

And my road burned. 

I let our creations become my life

The truth is, you were always so good at pushing, old friend... ... pushing me to do the right thing. 

You should have pushed a little harder."

Henry's fists clench.

Joey turns and smiles weakly at them.

"Hello miss." He looks at Allie. The brunette smiled softly and bowed her head. 

"It's good to see a player is here, do you enjoy this world?" He asks.

"Yes, one of my favorites."

Joey chuckles and turns to the twins.

"And you two...Don't you want to return home?" He asks them, concerned and a bit surprised that non-indies were here.

Mabel immediately nods her head. 

"We followed Henry into the studio to reach the end and get out! If we can... I mean...The loop." She exclaims.

Joey silently nods his head.

"You will be able to return home, for you see, you four have done it. You all broke the cycle."

The three, except for Allie were shocked.

(it's like those group of friends who are completely shocked at something while one knew it was coming)

"W-we did? How?!" Henry stutters.

"I thought you all figured it out. Let me explain.

It starts with Allie since she's not a protagonist and Henry was the real one, she had to break the timeline a bit to make sure Henry could venture into the studio like he did before, then the twins arrive. Thanks to them, some ink people there are now on the good side, that completely shattered the cycle.
