Never swallow your gum.
Jerry, an avid partier and good time haver, suddenly has his actions come back to haunt him as he wakes up to find something unnervingly wrong with his body.
Throughout his life, Jerry had convinced himself that he was invincible, rarely getting sick, never breaking a bone, yet when things suddenly changed, the hardest call he ever made was requesting an ambulance. Thinking he could just sleep the pain off, he didn't expect to be nearly paralyzed when he woke up. Embarrassed, being found the way he was, little could he ever imagine the discoveries that'd soon be made.
As questions surface about Jerry's condition, the discoveries that follow and dark secrets from the past resurface from unlikely places. No one could've imagined something pink, gelatinous, and referred to as Gary Gumball could ever exist, let alone be alive, as the seven-year rumours about gum stop seeming so far-fetched.
Leaning forward, their eyes turned to some mixture of every possible emotion, "W-what do you mean? Pearl, you know me. I'm your brother."
Pearl laughed at that one. "Good try. But I've never had a sibling."
Sandy pushed themself as far away from Pearl as possible, "Something's wrong. That's why you look wrong. I-I won't answer your questions until you look right."

When high-class criminal Sandy (real name Grian) won't answer her questions because she 'doesn't look right', well-known detective Pearl goes on a wild goose chase to find the man's story and if he is who he claims to be. She also finds a cult in the process.
