1st March 2025 After a disastrous trip from the Rio Cucumber and Pickles are in Editor Eddie's office and he's not really happy. He is talking with them of what happened in a stern tone. Editor Eddie: Your actions were very dissapointing, Cucumber. You crashed a car into a fruit stand. The owner has debts to pay because of you. Cucumber: But, I was pressured into driving it- Editor Eddie: Silence! And for you Pickles, You have caused a panic at the carnaval and made the float driver crash and injured dozens of people as you are following your cousin's footsteps. Your cousin is an absolute danger to Busytown. Editor Eddie was going to say something else until Monty barged into Editor Eddie's office to object. Monty: They are not a danger to Busytown! Cucumber & Pickles are great photographers! They don't deserve to be treated like this! I don't know what your deal is sir but- Pickles: Enough Monty, I can handle this. Monty: Okay then. Pickles: Editor Eddie, It's true. I convinced my cousin to travel with me. It was my fault. It would've been better if he never came. Cucumber: And I was being railroaded by Brock Stones. He was in Rio as well. I had to crash into a fruit stand to get away from him otherwise, I'd be defenseless. Pickles: Wonderful words, Cucumber. You did risk your life to defend yourself from that bear. Just as I did to say something I shouldn't have. Editor Eddie: Oh.. uhh.. Well.. I could not overlook at what happened in Rio. Well Cucumber, You did capture the right guy, And as for you Pickles, You did stand up and take responsibility for your actions. Pickles: Thanks Editor Eddie, We'll turn in our equipment. Editor Eddie: What are you talking about? Pickles: We're fired, aren't we? Editor Eddie: Not today. But I'm still disappointed in the both of you of what happened in Rio but, at least you spoke up and told me what happened and learned your lesson. Pickles: Also, We were thinking of flying to Abu Dhabi for a beauty contest if that's alright with you. Editor Eddie: It's not alright with me, I'm cool with it now that you learned from your mistakes. Be sure to take great photos of whatever's happening. Cucumber: I'm gonna be in the beauty contest hosted by a guy named Spencer Howler. Editor Eddie: Be careful, Spencer might be.. Cucumber: What? Editor Eddie: It's best if I don't tell ya. Let's just put that aside and you should focus on your next trip. Cucumber & Pickles beamed with relief after hearing Editor Eddie's remarks after they admitted what they had to do in Rio. Cucumber cellphone began to ring so she answered it. It was Vinegar but he was scared. Cucumber: Hello? Vinegar: Cucumber, please help me. Cucumber: Where are you? Vinegar: I'm kidnapped.. Please help me! Cucumber: Who did this to you? Where are you? Vinegar: I'm in Abu Dhabi.. I'm locked in a backroom! It was a Russian bear who did this! Please get me outta here! Cucumber: We'll be flying to Abu Dhabi momentarily. Just hang in there. Okay? Vinegar: Please hurry! Cucumber: Alright alright, Gotta go. (Hangs up) Pickles: What happened? Cucumber: Vinegar has been kidnapped by Vladimir in Abu Dhabi. Pickles: *Scoffs* That's his problem. My cousin ruined our trip. Cucumber: Pickles! We are not playing the blame game, We're already going to Abu Dhabi for the beauty contest and that's final! Pickles: Okay then just the beauty contest and nothing else. Cucumber: Pickles! We gotta save your cousin! Pickles: Why? So he can screw this trip up as well?! Cucumber: Pickles! He is your cousin! Pickles: I don't give a flying fuck if he's my cousin! He's a retard! He embarassed me in front of the whole god damn carnaval! Cucumber: I know that! But if we don't save him then.. then.. He'll be gone for good.. Pickles: Fine with me! Editor Eddie: Pickles Reginald Shepherd! You lost enough people and now you want to go for your cousin after Kevyn? Reliving those times you went without talking to your family? Pickles: My future is Cucumber and my past was bleak. And I'm not going to risk my life in saving his ass! Cucumber: Please! We need to save your cousin! Your cousin is all alone and helpless from the tone of his voice. I can sense that he is feeling submissive by what he is saying to me that you don't really know about. (Starts to cry) Pickles: Oh no no no.. Cucumber.. Please don't cry. You know it hurts my heart when you cry... Which is why you're doing it.. Cucumber: (Sobbing) It's not why! Editor Eddie: I'm afraid Cucumber is right, I know your cousin made a lot of bad choices but, that doesn't mean to have to do the same. Monty: It doesn't really accomplish anything if you get back at your cousin now doesn't it? Pickles: You're right.. I'm being a jerk twice as my own only cousin. I should treat him like how a mellow brother would. I'm an only child to my mama and I should at least interact with my cousin. So Cucumber, Please stop crying. I'll come with you to save my so-called cousin and try and.. clear the air with him. Cucumber: *Sniff* Really? Pickles: For the sake of our engagement. I assure you'll handle him more than before. Cucumber: Ohhh Pickles.. (Stops crying) I knew you would.. (Hugs him) Editor Eddie: Now, are you ready for that trip? Pickles: You know it! I was gonna reserve that 4th ticket to my cousin but.. I've decided to reserve to.. Monty: Who? Pickles: Since Zuke is coming with us, I wanna reserve that ticket for you. Monty: For me! Oh boy! This is greatest day of my life! A trip with my love and her sister and her fiance! Words can't describe how thankful I am! Pickles: I'm not doing this just for you, I'm doing it for Cucumber as well. I care about her and Zucchini. 2nd March 2025 After the meeting got better a bit later, Cucumber, Pickles and Zucchini especially Monty boards the plane to Abu Dhabi for the beauty contest hosted by Spencer Howler and to save Pickles' cousin Vinegar. Even though Pickles felt a resistance to the idea of saving his cousin but, he wanted to do it for the sake of Cucumber's relationship and love. While they are in the plane, Pickles had something to show Cucumber. It was the picture Vinegar gave to Pickles of his mother and father. Pickles: Cucumber? I have something to say that I didn't get to finish. Cucumber: What is it? Pickles: Remember at the trip in Alaska that.. I mentioned my father? Cucumber: While you were saying something about the northern lights? If so, then yes. Pickles: Well, What I meant in partying up there is that.. My dad died in 1979. He blew his brains out after a terrible day at work and.. I was only 4 when that happened.. Vinegar even gave me this picture in Rio. (Shows a pictures of Shirley and Salty together) Cucumber: Aww... That picture is so happy.. And Shirley does have a big tummy. Pickles: She was pregnant with me in this picture. My father was the most caring guy I've ever seen. I wish you would've met him. Cucumber: Same.. Pickles: But for now, Let's get some rest to build our strength for the beauty contest and to save my worthless cousin. Cucumber: Now, Pickles, you promised you'd show empathy to your cousin. Pickles: Fine, but if he gives me any lip, then I'll take it from him and stick it up his ass and he'll be going through life kissing his own ass. Cucumber: Promise me. (Kisses Pickles in the cheek) Pickles: I will. Hours have passed during the flight from Busytown to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emrites. They landed in the United Arab Emirites, Cucumber, Pickles, Zucchini and Monty walk out of the plane but Cucumber & Pickles have some business to do. So Cucumber doesn't know if Zucchini can handle looking around with her date Monty. Zucchini says it's fine because Monty is very caring and loving for Zucchini. So off Cucumber and Pickles goes to attempt to save Vinegar. Vinegar texted Cucumber and told her he's in a train and thought he was in a backroom and told her what the train looks like and the duo starts searching. Cucumber: Now all we gotta do is wait for the train to pass by. It's a red cargo train and he says that Vladimir spray painted his face on the train. Pickles: That's a tall order, trains like this go hella fast and there's a chance in zillions that we'll catch up to that train. Cucumber: We ain't pumping shit I'll tell you what. It's coming! The cargo train passes by and Pickles begins to jump onto whatever she can climb but Cucumber is still running because he doesn't wanna hurt himself trying to get on the train. Cucumber: Pickles! Don't leave me! Pickles: Grab hold! Pickles tosses a rope so Cucumber can grab it and pull her up to the train and she was practically flying while she was holding on to the rope as Pickles tries to pull her up and Cucumber was screaming as she thought she was going to die. Pickles: Hold on!!! Cucumber: I don't wanna die!!! Pull me in!!! Pickles: You can do it!! Cucumber: My.. my hands are getting sweaty!! Pickles: Don't look down!! Pickles pulls Cucumber up to the top of the train and she and Pickles are standing on it and attempts to walk on top without flying off. They find which box of the train Vinegar is located. Cucumber attempts to crack open the top of the box to try and rescue Vinegar. She opens the hole wider so her and Pickles can jump inside the train to rescue Vinegar. But unfortunely, Vinegar was nowhere to be seen; It wasn't the wrong box, he may have already at some backroom around Abu Dhabi. Pickles: What?!?! He escaped?!?! Cucumber: Motherfucker!!! How stupid can he be?? Pickles: As many as an octopus' suckers! As Cucumber and Pickles were puzzled from Vinegar's disappearance, a familiar Russian accent voice was heard and it was Vladimir the bear. Vladimir: That cowboy has already arrived at a backroom in a convention center. Cucumber & Pickles: Vladmir Gustav! Pickles: Where's my cousin? Vladimir: I have told you. A convention center. Cucumber: Where?? Vladimir: I can't tell you, Cum! Cucumber: Stop calling me that you drunken bastard!! Vladimir: You're on!! Cucumber & Pickles start to fight Vladimir so he wouldn't arrive at the convention center before Cucumber & Pickles. Vladimir punches Pickles away from Cucumber and Cucumber hits Vladimir in the face with a metal pipe. While Pickles was down on the ground, He spots a pistol lurking behind cardboard boxes and he tosses it to Cucumber and she catches it and starts shooting Vladimir in the chest multiple times and Vladimir screams in pain and she keeps shooting him until he dies; and so she did. Vladimir falls down to the ground with bullet holes in his chest spilling blood all over. Cucumber & Pickles attempts to escape the train box to stand back up. After they both made it back on top, they unexpectedly bump themselves on a lattice that was above the tracks. Cucumber & Pickles yells "Oh shit!" before they get hit by the lattice sending them flying off the moving train. They survived the fall but was hurt moderately. Cucumber: Owww... Pickles: Who put that there.. Cucumber: We're not giving up. We will find you Vinegar. Pickles: Uhhh yeah. We'll find you cousin. But can we at least meet Spencer and Sierra? I'm sure they're going loco waiting for us. Cucumber: I guess. Cucumber & Pickles head to the main street of Abu Dhabi on foot. It was a long walk but it was worth the walk. They didn't have the time to search for Spencer so Pickles takes the action to ring him up to know where is. Pickles pulls out his cellphone and dial's Spencer Howler's number and waits for him to pickup. Spencer Howler can feel his cellphone vibrating in his pocket and he pulls it out and answers it. Spencer: Spencer Howling speaking. Pickles: Hey Spencer, Where are you? We got lost trying to look for you two. Spencer: Oh hello, Shepherd. We're at an amusement park. Pickles: Amusement park? What's it called? Spencer: It's called Ferrari World. I've been waitin' for like several fucking minutes for you two to arrive. What was the hold up? Pickles: I'm sorry Spencer, We just got lost. That's all. Me and Cucumber are on our way right now after we pick up Zucchini and Monty. Shepherd: Jokes on you Shepherd, Those guys you mentioned are already at the amusement park. Those lovey doveys are just eating together waiting for your ass to show up. So are you and the paegeant coming or what?! Pickles: Yes Spencer. We're gonna take the bus to there. Shepherd: Okay. We'll see you then, Bye. (Hangs up) Pickles: Hear that Cucumber? Spencer doesn't sound pleased. I knew this would be a dumb idea trying to save my cousin. This was a waste of my fun time I'll tell ya what. Cucumber: Remember what Vladimir said? He's at the convention center and I think he might be locked somewhere in it. Pickles: Lemme guess, He's gonna escape once again? Cucumber: Pickles, Don't be exagerating. We still have to save him! Pickles: Or better yet, someone would grab him from the backroom and stuff him in a big sack. Cucumber: I'm serious... *Sniffs* Pickles needs us.. He's been begging and begging to go home like a prisoner pleading for life.. (Cries) Pickles: Ohhh Cucumber... please don't cry. Though sometimes it sounds like you're working me. Cucumber: (Punches Pickles in the arm) Fuck you! Pickles: Okay okay! I'm sorry! Cucumber: He's all you have. Have a heart! Pickles: Okay boo boo, how about this? After the contest, we'll save him. Comprende? Cucumber: You're right. I'll just focus on being pretty for the contest. Pickles: Good. Because I'm excited to see how sexy you look. (Kisses Cucumber in the forehead) Cucumber: Thank you. Cucumber and Pickles take the bus to Ferrari World where Spencer, Sierra, Zucchini and Monty are at so they wouldn't have to walk clear over from main street to the amusement park. Pickles rings Spencer up again by telling him to him and Cucumber boarded the bus and they're almost there. Spencer felt a little bit better and hangs up again. The bus stops at the bus stop near Ferrari World. So Cucumber & Pickles walks out of the bus and looks for Spencer Howler. They found him and Spencer was enthused and couldn't let the two talk. Spencer: About damn time you two showed up. Come on guys! We're running out of time! Follow me! Cucumber: Is my sister there? Spencer: Well ummm... Cucumber: Oh my god.. don't tell me she's.. Before Cucumber could finished her sentence, she sees Zucchini and Monty sitting together eating pizza. Monty so far is enjoying his pizza along with Zucchini. Zucchini: This pizza is so.. so.. Monty: Cheesy? I agree! It's so good! Zucchini: Heheh.. yeah. Monty: Want the rest of my pizza? Zucchini: Hmmm.. Wait, there's my sister and Pickles! Monty: Hey guys! Where you been? Pickles: Long story. Trying to save my cousin but.. turns out he lied to us. He wasn't in the damn train. I swear to god I'm gonna clobber him. Monty: Now now, I know you're angry at your cousin but. Cloberring him will only make it worse. Does it solve the problem? No, it doesn't. Pickles: Oh yeah it did. I ruined his 7th birthday when I was a kid and it made me feel proud. Monty: That wasn't very nice of you. If you keep treating your cousin badly, then Cucumber will break up with you. Understood? Pickles: Understood. Watcha eating Zuke? Zucchini: Pizza. Want a slice? Pickles: Sure, Boy I'm starvin from all this runnin! Zucchini grabs a slice of pizza for Pickles and even a slice of pizza for Cucumber. They eat the pizza together and they loved the pizza. It reminded Pickles the cheesesticks he had in Italy when he had a trip with Cucumber, Colette and Kevyn. He does love cheese. Pickles: Yumsters! Spencer: Hurry and eat your pizzas, There's something I want to show you. (Looks at his watch) Luckily we still have time to get ready for the beauty contest. Sierra is picking out the outfits and decorating the convention center. Come along you four. Spencer beckons the four to a ride in the amusement park. Cucumber takes photos of the amusement park for extra credit and took a picture of the ride. She wanted to film the ride but the sign says "no filming allowed". So she shrugs and steps in the coaster along with the other 3. Pickles was scared of roller coasters but had no room to deny riding it. So he was forced to ride the coaster. Spencer climbed in as well. This is not any roller coaster, This is the Formula Rossa, the fastest roller coaster in the world that goes up to 149 mph. Pickles is doing his best to prepare himself to ride a roller coaster that goes super fast. Zucchini is sitting close to Monty and Pickles is also sitting close to Cucumber while his teeth is chattering. The roller coaster starts and it already goes fast and slows down a little bit. As soon as the cart goes down a steep ramp fast, Cucumber, Pickles & Zucchini are screaming at the top of their lungs because they were so scared. Monty seems to be enjoying it. Cucumber, Pickles & Zucchini: (Screaming) Monty: Woooo!! Yeah!! Zucchini: MAKE IT STOP!!! (Holding onto Monty tight) Pickles: I AGREE!! Cucumber: THIS IS TOO MUCH!!! Minutes later, the coaster reaches the end and the ride is over and it was time for the passengers to get off the coaster. Pickles felt very dizzy from a rigirous ride including Cucumber. Zucchini could do nothing but cry and hugging Monty. Monty hugs her back and Cucumber also joined in hugging Zucchini. Zucchini: (Sobbing) Monty: Ohhh don't be sad, Zuke. It's over. Cucumber: It's not Monty's fault. Zucchini: I felt like I was gonna die.. *hic* Pickles: Same.. Zucchini: *Retches* Monty: You're not gonna die.. don't pretend to be dead. Cucumber: I think she's gonna.. Zucchini: *Vomits on the floor* Pickles: Ewwwww!!! Cucumber: Yuck! Monty: Woah!! Zucchini: *Coughing and breathing* Cucumber: You okay sis? Zucchini: I'm good. Spencer: Sad, you didn't enjoy the ride except me and you Mr. Elephant. Monty: I did enjoy it but, it's just their opinion. Anyways, are we going to the convention center yet? Spencer: Glad you asked big guy. We got 2 minutes for the show to start. Come now. We'll take the bus to the convention center because it's not near as you think. Spencer and the gang go to a bus stop to ride to the convention center so they can meet Sierra. A few miles later. The bus stops at the convention center and they all walk out of the bus so they can meet Sierra. Vinegar is still at the convention center but is tied up and has duct tape on his mouth in a backroom. The backroom is sound proofed so no one can hear his yells. Sierra: Hey guys! You're late. Spencer: Better late than never Sierra. (Grabs her by the wrist and gets her to the wardrobe so she can help Cucumber dress up for the contest. Pickles: (Murmurs to Zucchini) Something's fishy about this guy. Zucchini: Maybe he doesn't like being late. To be continued
