*6:00 AM. Reggie Fils-Aime is on the phone with Bill in the Gaylord Lobby.*
Reggie, you sure you wanna do this?! I saw what happened last round with him. I don’t think we have it in the budget this year for our COO to be turned to dust!
It’s okay, Bill. I’m sure Nintendo’s loyal fans will make the right choice.
Well, at the very least, you’re more charismatic than the *last* CEO Thanos fought against.
Besides, I’ve got someone on the inside to deal with Thanos’ little gauntlet. He’s no stranger to collecting valuable gold objects, plus he owes me after I got his game on the Switch.
We found your little spy!
Reggie, I’m sorry! I tried, but this guy’s bad!
...Y’know, it’s my own fault for trusting someone who can’t even jump.
You ask someone to help you cheat. Your cowardice surprises me.
Hey, I just want a fair fight! No items!
Well, if it’s a battle you want, I think we have a mutual arena in which to fight.
Please, try to be gentle with it this time?
I make no promises.
Alright, just gotta...ugh, no connection.
No luck on my end either.
I swear, the Wi-Fi at this hotel...
You have no room to talk, what with your company’s history.
Alright, if you win the battle, I shall spare your mushroom underling. Otherwise, he’ll meet the same fate as half of the universe.
Alright, deal. Better get on the battle bus, big guy!
I’m sorry, but your boss doesn’t stand a chance. Our guy’s known this game his entire life.
That’s where you’re wrong! Reggie’s about taking names and kicking... w-well, you get the point! He knows games more than anyone, he’ll win this one for sure!
You don’t understand. Thanos is quite literally *from* this game.
...Wait, he is? But I thought he was an alien!
In a way, he is. But he wasn’t always this way. Up until last season, he was actually just our squad leader. Our... friend. All of us here looked up to him...
But all that changed when the Infinity Gauntlet landed on the island... Since then, he hasn’t been his old self.
What the hell happened to you, Jonesy?
Camaraderie does not mean very much when it is easy.
Found you!
And thus, your destiny arrives. You’ve done well to survive this long, but this will be-
And that’s the game!
...Defeat. I see. Very well, your friend lives to see another day. But the real battle will begin shortly, after all.
Yeah, and I’m gonna kick your ass in the polls!
Do not let your arrogance get the best of you. Even if you think you’ve won...
...Wait, who’s “CarltonNoE”?
YEEEAAAAH!
...you should watch your head.
So, uh... I guess that sequel we were talking about is out of the question?
Go home, Cap.
