[In medias res: In a hallway. Gnome and Engineer are running from Sheriff and TheGentleman. Engineer gets knocked down. Sheriff shoots Engineer. The two impostors shapeshift into Engineer. Gnome enters Reactor and waves at Dum. The impostor Dum impales Gnome with the tongue. Meanwhile, Mr. Cheese hides in Electrical while petting a Cheddar plush toy. The real Cheddar looks sadly at him. An impostor TheGentleman approaches and slices Mr. Cheese with the knife off-screen.]
[In The Skeld. Player enters the lobby.]
PLAYER
Ah! It's feels good to be back in Among Us! Huh, why does everything feel slightly different for no reason?
MR. EGG
There was a new update, Player! As you can see, we are all dealing with the consequences.
PLAYER
Wait, who are you?
MR. EGG
What? I'm Mr. Egg, of course! (laughs) You might not recognize me because of my new maroon color! Fetching, isn't it?
MR. CHEESE
Yeah, more like moron color! (snickers) Go on me.
PLAYER
Some things never change.
MR. EGG
It's not my fault all the OG colors were taken!
PLAYER
Wait, all of them? That doesn't make sense!
MR. EGG
See for yourself!
[Dum, Captain, Sheriff, Stoner stand about.]
SHERIFF
How come I get to be tan?
[BDay, Rose, Gnome, Engineer stand about.]
ROSE
Lookie here everybody! My very own color! I finally got the recognition I so rightfully deserve!
BDAY
That’s my Rose!
GNOME
Hey, Engineer?
ENGINEER
Yeah, babe?
GNOME
Why don't I have a color named after me?
ENGINEER
Probably because, "Gnome" is not a color.
GNOME
Hmph! Well, it should be!
(Cheddar barks loudly while running back and forth. TheGentleman covers what's supposed to be his ears.)
THEGENTLEMAN
Oh Mr. Cheese, would you kindly calm Cheddar down? With 15 players in such a combined space, the noise pollution is becoming rather unbearable on these old ears!
MR. CHEESE
Hey, if you want a cute dog that doesn't make any noise, you should probably just buy yourself a Cheddar plushie available now at newscapepro.com!
THEGENTLEMAN
That does not help our current situation, but I admit it good advice, nonetheless.
PLAYER
Wow, fifteen players. This game sure has changed a lot while I've been off playing Friday Night Funkin'! There must be all sorts of new maps and gameplay features too beyond this simple cosmetic changes! Right, Mr. Egg?
MR. EGG
Um, well, perhaps you'd like to change into a wacky new color yourself! Might I interest you in a fashionable grey ensemble? Hm? Hm?
PLAYER
That seems pretty boring to me, but hey, there's no harm in trying something new!
MR. EGG
That's the spirit! Enjoy!
PLAYER
(looks at the lobby laptop) Well, it looks like the good colors are already taken.
[The fifteenth color slot is a display of different colors that change constantly.]
PLAYER
Hey, what's this?
CAPTAIN
(goes to Player) Places, people. The game's about to start!
PLAYER
Well, here goes nothing.
[Player switches to the rainbow color.]
[The match starts. Player and Stoner are the Impostors.]
CAPTAIN
Everyone scatter! That includes you too, impostors!
[Captain steps one foot on the bench and makes himself look dignified.]
CAPTAIN
If you hang back and try to coordinate with each other, I'll be right here waiting! Watching! like the sandcast meercat of the savanna!
DUM
Wait um, Captain? If the Impostors were going to stand back, and you did the same thing, wouldn't that make you sus?
CAPTAIN
Y-yeah, you're right Dum! I don't wanna be sus! C'mon, let's get outta here, like the opportunistic wallaby!
DUM
(sighs) Captain, I really think you're probably too much (inaudible)
STONER
Thought they'd never leave. Been a while since I've been An Impostor, just like old times.
PLAYER
Aw man, I'm still red! I thought I picked that cool rainbow color!
STONER
Woah, you saw that too? Those gnarly colors bro, who can resist?
PLAYER
Wait, Stoner, look at yourself!
STONER
Like, look at yourself, dude! Cowabunga!
PLAYER
Hey, it worked! We're rainbow impostors! Wait a minute, I think that means...
[Player changes back to his default red color.]
PLAYER
I can change my color at will! That's so OP!
CAPTAIN
(in the background) So OP!
PLAYER
Did you hear something?
STONER
Nah man. Thanks to a lifetime of Martian, I can't hear anything!
PLAYER
Then how'd you know what I just said-
STONER
What?!
PLAYER
(shaking his head) Nevermind. Let's split up. I've got some ideas for how to use this to our advantage!
[Player guffaws as he walks away and leaves Stoner alone.]
STONER
What?
[In Security. Veteran is watching the cameras.]
PLAYER
(to himself while looking around) Alright, time to find my first victim! (notices Veteran) Veteran! Perfect!
PLAYER
Hey Veteran, what are you doing?
VETERAN
Oh! Hey, buddy! Just reminiscing. I've been feeling a little nostalgic, I guess. All these crazy changes can make a man's head spin! Did you see they had a tan to the game? Tan, Player!
PLAYER
(uninterested) Yeah. Crazy.
VETERAN
I miss the simple days of mods and space adventures! Oh well, you here to look at the cams?
PLAYER
Not quite.
[Player stabs Veteran with the knife.]
VETERAN
(coughs) Bull crap! Didn't see that one coming! You've gotten better!
PLAYER
You haven't seen anything yet!
[He shapeshifts into Veteran.]
VETERAN
Neat trick! Ugh.
PLAYER
What is it?
VETERAN
Oh! Um- (coughs) nothing! Just, PoopyFarts.
[PoopyFarts arrives at the scene to see two Veterans, one alive and one dead.]
POOPYFARTS96
(farts)
[PoopyFarts96 pulls out a phone. Veteran's body is reported. Player is still in Veteran's form in this meeting.]
PLAYER
Woah, what the heck is this new screen?
MOTHER
Are you okay today, Veteran? You sound awfully nasally.
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
Oh...um...well...
[He clears his throat and changes his voice to Veteran's.]
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
That's because... (to himself) Well, I'm totally nailing this impression, huh.
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
(to everyone) I mean, uh, that's because I'm super awesome at stuff, including imitating my dead best friend, Player, who I totally saw PoopyFarts kill.
CAPTAIN
Player!
[Captain dramatically places a hand in his head.]
CAPTAIN
No!
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
It's a crying shame. I thought the little guy finally had it in him to win a game, oh well.
POOPYFARTS96
(farts)
CAPTAIN
Cut it, soggy bottom boy. Now, all in favor of flushing this murderous turret, into the ice-cold expanse of infinite beauty, despair, and darkness, say aye.
EVERYONE EXCEPT POOPYFARTS96
Aye!
POOPYFARTS96
(farts)
[In Storage.]
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
This disguise worked perfectly! Two down, a whole lot more to go. Let's hope Stoner's having a good of luck as I am!
[Captain sings while he pulls up and down the trash chute lever to the beat.]
♪ Emptying that chute ♪
♪ Oh yeah, I'm emptying that chute, doop, doo, doo, doo ♪
♪ You better believe, I'm emptying that chuu-uuute! ♪
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
(smiling, visor shining) I'm gonna enjoy this one.
[Player pulls the trigger, but the gun fails to shoot.]
PLAYER (AS VETERAN)
Huh? What the-?
CAPTAIN
Whoa, whoa, whoa, brochacho. Watch where you point that thing. You wouldn't want to shoot...
[Captain is actually Stoner shapeshifted.]
STONER
...a fellow Impostor.
PLAYER
Stoner!
[Player changes back to his default form.]
PLAYER
I was wondering why I didn't see you at the meeting.
STONER
All thanks to this- (his voice changes to Captain's) so OP!-
(His voice returns to normal.)
STONER
...mod. (coughs) Sorry. Still had a little Captain in me.
PLAYER
How are you so good at that?
STONER
Beats me. We should be like voice actors or something.
PLAYER
There's time for that later. Right now, we have a ship full of crewmates to kill!
STONER
Right on, dude. [high-fives with Player]
SHERIFF
What in tarnation?
THEGENTLEMAN
This is most unfortunate.
[Player and Stoner look eagerly at each other. Both pull out their guns and shoot. In a hallway, Gnome and Engineer are running from impostor Sheriff and TheGentleman. Engineer gets knocked down. Sheriff shoots Engineer. Gnome is impaled with the tongue. An impostor TheGentleman approaches and slices Mr. Cheese with the knife off-screen.]
BDAY
[clears his throat] There's five left. So it all comes down to this.
STONER (AS THEGENTLEMAN)
Indeed. We can't get this wrong, people. Which is why I must accuse [points a finger] Mr. Egg!
MR. EGG
Sacré bleu!
STONER (AS THEGENTLEMAN)
Mr. Cheese called his color, and I quote, "A moron color." There. Motive established, dudes.
MR. EGG
Dudes?
STONER (AS THEGENTLEMAN)
Um? If not him, than me.
PLAYER (AS SHERIFF)
And the Texas says, 10-4.
[Mr. Egg was ejected.]
MR. EGG
I told you, it wasn't me!
STONER (AS THEGENTLEMAN)
[everyone looking at him] Okay! Yeah, you caught me. [changes back to default]
STONER
Later, dudes! Good luck, Rose! I'm rooting for you.
ROSE
Oh, come on now! BDay!
[Rose was ejected.]
ROSE
Oh! I have a color named after me!
BDAY
That's not good.
MOTHER
So, what do we do now?
PLAYER (AS SHERIFF)
Well I- [his voice starts to sound like Player's] I think I...win.
[Player shoots BDay. He wins the game.]
PLAYER
I...I did it! I really did it!
MR. CHEESE, VETERAN, CAPTAIN
Congratulations!
POOPYFARTS96
(says the same)
GNOME, ENGINEER
Congratulations!
[Cheddar barks.]
MR. EGG
Jolly good!
SHERIFF
Congratulations!
STONER
Congratulations, dude!
BDAY, ROSE
(in chorus) Congratulations!
THEGENTLEMAN
Oh, that's my boy!
PLAYER
Thank you. Thank you, everybody! So uh, you down for another game?
[Everyone else raises their hands and says yes. A photo takes an exultant Player along with Sheriff, Veteran, Mother, BDay, Captain and Dum in the background.]
