Eddie Noodleman:...Uh, who are you?

*The “you” that Eddie is referring to is a young robotic lady with green hai and a strange green symbol on her face.*

Stannie:Ah right, I’m Stannie, you know the person that  ihzzeeker sent as a substitute host for Meowth while he was away.

Eddie:”Substitute” Host?

Hata No Kokoro:*surprised mask* Hold on, I think I remember something about this…*happy mask* Last time Meowth said he wanted to catch up with an old friend of his so he’d be taking two episodes off in order to do just that.

Linda Belcher:Oh yeah! I think that’s right. He also wanted to put someone to take his place as host while he was gone and here they are now.

Stannie:Yep that’s me all right! While Meowth is off wherever he is, I’ll be here acting as a substitute host for the next two episodes!

Dudley Puppy:Well it’s nice to meet you! My name is Dudley Puppy and I’m a secret agent at TUFF except it’s not really a secret agency and I used to chase my butt a lot! These are my friends Kokoro who has lots of masks, Linda whose our resident wine mom and Eddie who sounds like Wreck it Ralph but looks nothing like him.

Stannie:*sarcastic* Oh hello there…Dudley. I can tell we’re going to get along just fine.

# felt like sarcasm, was that sarcasm?

Stannie:Now why don’t we let someone else fill me in on what else happened before I arrived.

Linda:*Well last time, in the high quality nine, we eliminated Vitchini who had turned out to be Brand New Animals’ Michiru Kagemori. I also went through an identity crisis but I’ve decided not to worry about the nature of my own existence for a long, long, time.

Dudley:Also we have a point thing! I’m at 4 along with Kokoro, Linda’s leading with 6 and Eddie’s at 5.

Stannie:Thanks for that. So there’s only 8 of these guys left right?

Kokoro:*fox mask* Indeed, only 8 remain and Meowht mentioned something about duels. Do you have any information on that?

Stannie:Yeah I think I do. Meowth kindly left me a note explaining what was going on this round.
It mentioned that in the duels we’ll have 2 sets of 2 v 2 matches where the commeters will vote which one of both matches was better. The winners of each match, which are the ones with the most votes, will move on to the next round automatically.

Linda:But what of the losing 2?

Stannie:Great question and the note addresses that next. Apparently the losers will still have a chance to make it with a round sudden death where they will have to sing a duet together for one last chance to stay in the game. The one with the most votes of sudden death will stay in and move on to the finals as well while the one who lost sudden death will have to unmask.

Dudley:So basically 2 rounds, winners move on automatically, losers get one chance to redeem themselves via sing-a-long?

Stannie:*sighs* Yes, that’s the point. *ahem* By the way, the duels are themed. The theme of Duel 2 is yet to be revealed. But for duel 1, which is this night, it’s Disney night!

*Tinker Bell flies in and uses her want to write the words “Disney Night” on the screen behind her*

Eddie:So that explains why there’s a hidden Mickey on our judge table.

Stannie:Yeah, and it also explains of guest judge. He may not be the mouse himself, to much money to get, but he is one of Disney's other main mascots and one whom recently started with his girlfriend in an episode of Toon House Hunters. He may not have the best of luck and his temper can be a bit much, but by some miraculous stroke of luck, it’s Donald Duck!

Donald Duck:*waking in from the other side of the judgers seat.* Hi there!

Eddie:Hey ya Donald! How's the new house treating you? Must be better than living in a houseboat or your uncle’s place isn’t it?

Donald:Pretty good, we were a bit worried about that mysterious house offer but he really turned it around with that house boat at the end. It almost looked just like mine, but it was double the price.

Kokoro:*disappointed mask* Yeah, I didn’t want to say anything but I think you just scammed by buying your old houseboat back out for double the price.

Donald:*upset* Aww Phooey.

Stannie:Well don’t worry, for taking on this gig as a guest judge you’ll get an extra 4000$!

Donald:I had to pay more than that.

Stannie:As much as I’d love to spend more and more time talking about this we’ve got a show to get too. So let’s get started with our first match. One is a dragon type but can’t breathe fire and one looks like a dragon but is a fire type instead. It’s time for Axew Vs. Charizard.

Axew:All right, made it to Round 3! This Axew is not planning on stopping now. If only we were in a real duel, maybe then I could actually get away.

Charizard:Oh don’t get yourself over heated. I’m going to be the one who makes it to the final and not you!

Axew:Pretty high and mighty coming from someone who looks like they should be a dragon type but aren’t actually a dragon type. I don’t have any idea who you are but I bet anyone who's anyone knows who you are either.

Charizard:That’s the whole point of the show, so I must be doing well then! And even if they don’t know who I am, at least I’m not a wanted criminal, or so I’ve heard. Yeah I may have went to jail too, but at least I got a reward.

Axew:You think that you're so great because you’re fully evolved? Well guess you aren’t as great as you think you are. And I’m going to prove after I beat you.

Charizard:Compensating for a costume that fits just right are we? Good for you I guess. But I’m still going to win this duel!

Axew:Bring it on!

Charizard:Ha!

Stannie:My, my, my. It looks like we’ve got things fired up here! Axew? You're up first!

Axew:https://youtu.be/AmhcF2PrSgY

Stannie:What a way to start Disney nigh!

Dudley:I too would like to know about strangers like me.

Stannie:I doubt that there’s anyone like you.

Dudley:Aww, thanks!...I think? Was that sarcasm again.

Kokoro:Hmmm, maybe the reason he choose this song because he feels like he too is a stranger too others. We already know he’s the only of his species or kind but maybe there’s a similar species or something like that?

Stannie:Maybe. Perhaps there’s a chance that our clue will be an answer.

Dudley:Ooh! What is the clue.

Stannie:*upset* I was getting to it before you so rudely interrupted me. Since we already have Tinker Bell here, why doesn't she use her magic to show us a clue? What do you say, Tink?

*Tinker Bell winks and then uses her wand to summon the clue however she accidentally hits a reflective surface and accidentally hits Dudley turning him a Yoshi*

Dudley:Ba-dum!

Stannie:Wow that could have been me.

*Despite her laughter, She undos the mistake and then summons the actual clue, which lands just above Donalds head.*

Donald:Wah-*gets hit by the clue*

Linda:Hey it’s a shield with a star in it.

*The shield in question gets a boo-boo on it.*

Axew:Personally I much prefer offense over defense, but me and the owner of this shield are more similar than you think

Kokoro:*thinking mask* So he’s a Superhero too? He did mention being the last of his kind and Superman’s planet went extinct. I don’t remember Superman going to jail but he was imprisoned by Super Villains before.

Eddie:Yeah I think you're right about the kidnapping part! But Superman is a bit small to fit in there. Maybe it’s his pet Krypto? He’s the one and only Krypton Dog which is way more rare than being just a Krypton resident. Not to mention he’s small enough to fit in that suit.

Linda:I think that might be a good idea, but there are some flaws to it. For starters only other pets can understand him unless of course for some reason we are the pets in this case? That wouldn’t make much sense if I’m being honest.

Donald:*removing the shield I wonder if the reason he chose the Shield specifically was because he’s under the MARVEL license? I was thinking Rocket Raccoon. He is small enough to fit in that suit at least.

Dudley:Yea and the other clues do make somewhat more sense if those are true. Especially the galaxy beer clue.

Stannie:Well no matter who they are it dosen’t matter if the Charizard performs better than him. Speaking of which, hit it!

Charizard:https://youtu.be/3IOqRLR3Oug

Stannie:Wow that was a pretty neat cover.

Donald:Almost as good as the real Ariel’s voice! It almost sounds as good as a real princess.

Linda:Oh? Do you think it’s another Disney Princess?

Donald:...No, I don’t think so. I think I’d recognize that, I mean I was in a game series with them, and a disney princess singing a princess song might be a dead ringer.

Stannie:Well then, in the meantime why don’t we get our guesses ready with this new clue.

*Tinker Bell uses her magic again*

Stannie:It’s a frame?

Charizard:I was a part of a gang with members who had a lot of them.

Linda:So wait, you mean that they had framed wanted portraits? *thinking* Maybe it’s a member of the gang we met. To be exact, the one who gave birth to our baby in the restaurant. Mudflap!

Kokoro:I’m not sure, she did not mention anything about a child or a pregnancy in her previous, plus she didn’t have a sister did she.

Donald:Aw phooey, I’m honestly clueless here.

Eddie:Well, instead of only focusing on this clue. Why don’t we take a look back on her previous clues instead? She mentioned that she was the only girl in a group of guys. So I thought about and the first voice that came into my head was Noodle from Gorillaz.

Dudley:*thinking* Hey that’s right! And she’s also the guitarist of the group too. She also has a short temper and her little sister could be referring to her Cyborg Clone that Murdoc had made for her.

Donald:Ah I think you might be onto something there. I think I’ll go with Noodle too.

Eddie:*shaking head* I don’t I have my doubts about my own theory due to them not really being roomates, more like found family? And I don’t remember Noodle being in a gang either. So then I went back to GUMI due to the orange and green clue and it turned out I was right, we don’t allow VOCALOID, UTAU, or any other form of VIRTUAL SINGER to compete.

Kokoro:*thinking* Well then what else could it mean?

Eddie:Why what Dudley said last week, *singing* Nickelodeon! The logo is orange and it’s often associated with green slime. So this is a Nickelodeon character is the only one of 3 guys. The only one I could think off of the top of my head is Goat from Pig Goat Banana Cricket but if anyone else has any other ideas.

Kokoro:*thinking* Hmm, well I was actually sort of thinking that this one was actually Kitty Katswell from TUFF PUPPY here to surprise Dudley? *smiling* I mean Kemsek is an inventor, Dudley has an appetite and the fourth main character, the bug, may not be lazy but he can be a real grouch. And the secret agency could kind of be like a gang.


Dudley:*shakes head* Trust me it’s not Kitty. I’d recognize her voice anywhere. Unless…she got a voice surgery and didn’t let me know?!

Stannie:Well no matter who they were we’ve definitely got some competition going. I can see the sparks flying already between them.

Donald:Yeah! It’s almost as tense between me and Unca Scrooge!...*covers mouths* I think the nephews got to me.

Dudley:Oh boy I can’t wait for the next match I wonder who it’s going to be! It could be anyone out of the 6 conversations left!

Stannie:*sighs* The word is combination Dudley. *under breathU Jeez Louise how obnoxious can this guy get.

Dudley:*upset* Is she…is she talking about me under her breath?

Stannie:*ahem* Anyways, there is actually a reason we began with the contestants whose names started with “A” and “C” first. It’s because we will be going in alphabetical order for the matches, but by actual name instead of type. Therefore the next match will be those with the closet letters to C. In this case it would be D and G. One may be grounded but the other takes to the sky. One is bigger but the other is clearly batty. Give it up for Diggserby and Gliscor. Let’s hear their pre battle banter.

Diggserby:Honestly, how the h*ll I made it this far is surprising. I was expecting to be booted out last time. Yet here I am on the road to the finals.

Gliscor:Honestly I was sort of thinking the same. I was worried that my performance didn’t fly right. I was even in the danger zone! Thank goodness I was saved.

Diggserby:I apologize no heartedly for that but don’t think this means that the game is over yet! It’s still afoot, a rabbit’s foot to be exact, and that’s a sign of good luck. One which you’ll clearly need to handle that family of yours.

Gliscor:Well I may not have luck, but I do have faith in myself. That is something in which you clearly lack. Well at the very least the good kind of faith. You seem to at least have the bad kind in you which is admirable.

Diggersby:Well no matter who wins or loses one of our spouses is certainly going to be surprised when we eventually unmask.

Gliscor:I’m not planning to do it tonight and I don’t think you are either. If one of us does however, I hope they at least enjoy these love songs we’ll sing for them.

Diggersby:Well, I wish you the best of luck regardless, Miss G. Not my luck though.

Gliscor:And the same to you Mister D. You’ll need some good faith too.

*The two shake hands*

Stannie:I’m guessing that these two are going to sing classic Disney Love Songs to their spouses? Isn’t that romantic?

Linda:Yeah, *sniff* I’m a sucker for romance.

Stannie:Well Lin, you might want to hold your tears back they haven’t even started yet. *points* Oh! But here Diggersby to start his off with his song.

Song:https://youtu.be/fTtgVSxfr5M

Stannie:Wow, Diggserby, that was so sweet. And I bet your wife is certainly feeling the love tonight...where ever she is.

Diggserby:Thank you!

Eddie:You know Nala and Simba were f***ing in that scene right?

Diggersby:*embarrassed* W-well I mean, yes, they might have been but I mean I-I ultimately choose it for a different reason.

Kokoro:*teasing mask* Sure you did.

Stannie:Well no matter why he choose it, Diggersby definitely gave us a case of bunny love. Maybe his clue will also have a relationship to that? Tink? You know what to do.

*Tink creates another magic spell. That’s when something lands on their feet.*

Thomas O’Malley:*confused* Where the heck am I?

Stannie:It’s Thomas O’Malley the alley cat!

Linda:Well we already knew it wasn’t him.

Diggersby:*nods* Correct, but the reason this cat is here is because I had an experience wearing an outfit of this species this once.

*Tink uses her magic again and Thomas is transported back to his home*

Kokoro:*thinking* He wore an outfit like it once? So he wore a cat suit. Maybe it’s one of the playable characters from Super Mario series. Mario has the weight but Luigi has the height. I think it’s Luigi under there since he seems more cowardly. I don’t remember him marrying Daisy though?

Donald:To be fair Mario hasn’t proposed to Peach either. Then again who knows what will happen in the Mario movie! Heck Mickey’s taken a long time to propose to Minnie and they’re pretty much married by heart. I feel like Luigi being in a similar situation wouldn’t be impossible now, would it?

Eddie:But he’s never mentioned a brother and we’ve never seen Daisy’s parents before in a canon game! I am going to be sticking with my last vote of Moxxie from Helluva Boss.

Dudley:I’m going to change my guess to that too! Dr.Fludd, from Villainous, never wore a catsuit before, despite what the internet may say.

Linda:Well Zim did gress his robot up as a dog so who is to say he didn’t dress up as a cat to chase him? I don’t know if I don’t remember much of the series besides a little green alien taking over the world. He might be a little small but maybe there’s like stilts or something.

Stannie:All your guesses are great! Especially Linda’s guess. *to the side* Except for Dudley’s original guess.

Linda:*blushing* Aw thank you.

Dudley:*upset* I heard that you know! Dogs have better hearing than humans, it’s a known fact!

Stannie:However is it good enough to beat the Gliscor, I Axew?

Axew:No, I Axew. You judge?

Stannie:Right…*ahem* Anyways, let’s see what song that the Gliscor has planned for us.

Gliscor:https://youtu.be/BYvTRl-fxWs

Eddie:Well you might not say it, but I will! Because I am in love with that cover that is!

Linda:Yeah great job! You almost sang it as good as the real Megara!

Stannie:Yes, infact, could it possibly be the real Megara under there?

Dudley:I don’t think so as there's' like a contract that states that the singers can’t sing original songs from the media that they are in. Or wait did I just make that up.

Donald:No that’s a real contract all right! I saw it in the hallway coming in!

Stannie:Don’t bother worrying about him, I don’t think the puppy even knows how to read.

Dudley:Hey! I do know how to do read…at least a little bit.

Stannie:Well regardless if you do or not it’s time to see what sort of clue Tink has in store for us. Tink?

*Tinker Bell uses her wand one more time and reveals the hidden clue.*

Kokoro:*surprised mask* It’s a glass sculpture bird!

Gliscor:While I myself am not one, a friend of mine had the voice of one, and I mean it literally.

Linda:Okay so she's not a bird. Makes sense she couldn’t fly, but now we know she isn't a flightless one either. So then maybe it’s Penelope Pussycat from Looney Tunes? We had Bugs Bunny on last season and it would make sense if we didn’t recognize her singing voice because she barley ever sung in canon. The bird of course would be Tweety since he literally is a bird.

Donald:Or perhaps maybe they mean that their name means bird. Like Tori Kelly! Hey maybe it’s someone you know, Mr.Noodleman!

Eddie:I think it just might be! In Fact I have faith that it is who I think it is.

Dudley:And that is?

Eddie:I plead the fifth but I can say with certainty that it isn’t Meena since she was the one who Tori voiced and it was a “friend”

Donald:I think I know which one you're talking about!

Kokoro:**knollegable mask* Before I guess here’s a fun fact, did you know Meena’s VA appeared as a Unicorn in the US version? *shakes head* Now then, I actually disagree and instead believe this to be Kyouko Kasodani. The friend with the bird voice is Mystia Lorei and they perform in a band together. However before this Mysita went solo. Perhaps she’s doing the same thing her friend did?

Dudley:I’ll take Kokoros idea. *defensieve* Not because I’m too dumb to think of my own but because I think Kokoro may actually be on to something this time.

Stannie:*rolls eyes* Sure, if you say so. *smiling* Well no matter who you are, both of our contestants in this match had great performances. In Fact all of our contestants did! I bet they had a good time too.

Donald:*thinking* You know I did. I actually was pretty lucky tonight. only one of those clues landed on me and I didn’t transform into any strange object.

*Tink activates one more spell aimed at Donald whose beak increases in size, comically so.*

Donald:Me and my big mouth.

Linda:*chuckles* Hah. I get it. Big mouth and his mouth is really big.

Stannie:It is a pretty clever pun, but no matter how big his mouth is he doesn't get the final say in which two contestants make it. The votes do! So here’s what you’ll need to do. Instead of voting for the 2 you liked the best overall you’ll need to choose which two you like better on each group. Choose either Axew or Charizard first, then choose either Gliscor of Digserby. The two with the most amounts of votes will automatically move on to the semifinals while the two in last place will have to duke it out in SUDDEN DEATH. You can only vote once however.

The Contestants:So vote wisely!
