Jax | Working minimum wage at Spudsy's

The episode starts with Ragatha teaching Gangle how to pitch a softball, with Jax as the batter. After some encouragement from Ragatha and bored attitude from Jax, Gangle throws the softball, only for Jax to accidentally bat it into her mask, breaking it. While Ragatha and Jax start arguing, Zooble approaches Gangle to show her a plastic mask they found in their Zooble's box, highly resembling the masks Gangle wears.

She puts it on, telling Zooble that she feels normal, in a good way. She thanks Zooble just before Jax, Pomni, and Ragatha walk in, with Jax asking Zooble if she is giving away parts. Zooble tells him that she would not give any parts to him, and Jax tells Pomni that she won't get a unicorn horn now, confusing her as she never once thought about asking him for one, though Gangle agrees it would suit the jester.

Pomni, now curious, is about to say that it's possible, Caine appears, asking if someone said adventure. Pomni tells him no, and the video cuts to Caine saying that the adventure will be "The Curse of the Violent Psychopath Butcher" - a scary adventure about human meat. Before he can continue, Pomni interrupts, asking if they can back off the horror, due to the last adventure. Zooble asks, confused if it was the one made for them, questioning why they would like that after hearing the explanation. Caine suggests they think of better adventures, to which Zooble corrects him by saying they do in a suggestion box; Caine appearently just forgot it existed.

The AI pulls it out of a wall, asking Bubble to cover the leak, and reads some of the suggestions out loud. Consisting of "hitting Zooble like a pinata" and "Jax staying silent for the whole adventure", Gangle asks for a more normal adventure, to which Caine finds a suggestion of working at a fast food place. Gangle approves of this, and is thus given the job of shift manager at the new adventure of "An Honest Hard Days Work at Spudsy's Restaurant Chain", annoying Jax greatly. Caine comments on the many ideas entering his mind as Bubble forgets to re-plug the leak for a second.

Zooble once again attempts to sit out on the adventure, much to Caine's frustration. However, Kinger, under the assumption that there is a limit as to who can participate, offers to sit out if it means Zooble is able to take his place. A perplexed Zooble tries to reject this notion, but Caine, eager to have them on board, rolls with the logic and presses a button that sends them down a trap door. Gangle is feeling up to the adventure, having been a shift manager at some point in the past. Caine opens the portal for the remaining four members to enter through, with Jax slipping on a puddle along the way.

Entering Spudsy's and now wearing their uniforms, the four get ready to work as Zooble falls into the establishment. Gangle tries to get everyone started and tests all the machines. Jax immediately throws Ragatha in the deep-fryer, daring Gangle to do something about it; She calls upper-management, which is in fact Caine, asking if bad employees could have a punishment at the end of the day. Caine agrees, as this will bring motivation to the adventure. When questioned by a slightly panicked Jax as to why she would do that, Gangle calls it a manic episode with many more seasons to before giving him a list of jobs as she leaves in a jovial manner.

In the breakfast rush, Zooble burns their spatula hand on the grill, and Pomni is greeted by the first customer - Orbsman, an NPC from a previous adventure Pomni was not in. He speaks in unintelligible speech, being translated as a Number 57. Jax comments on his dislike for Orbsman, to which Gangle criticizes him for. A mannequin NPC comes up to the counter, asking for the Stupid Burger and demanding they remember to put on the Stupid Sauce, which makes you stupid, being addicted. Ragatha goes to prepare the meal but gets some of the sauce in her eye. She starts to hallucinate, seeing a creepy looking Gangle. Ragatha is now in a high-like state.

Upon noticing Zooble working at the grill, Jax comments how odd it is that they're actually participating in the adventure despite their cynicism. Zooble refutes by saying they want to avoid whatever punishment Caine has planned and backs it up by saying the only reason he actively doesn't hurt them on purpose is because he likes them. Meanwhile, Pomni unexpectedly runs into Gummigoo and his friends, Max and Chad, while at the counter, none of whom recognize her and order like normal. A panicked and stammering Pomni lets them sit down before crawling over to the trio's table. Gummigoo notices her and, confused, asks if she's okay; Pomni merely claims she just wanted to say "hi", though she's obviously saddened by the fact that he doesn't remember her. Gangle learns of this from an intoxicated Ragatha, which she words as flirting with an NPC.

The manager yells at Pomni to get back to work. Pomni tries to have more time with him, but a manic Gangle keeps pushing, having a cracking sound appear from her mask. The lunch rush starts. A livid Jax goes to the drive-thru and sees the Gloink Queen, accompanied by Gloinks, come up to the window, questioning what it is. A mannequin hogs the front of the restaurant line, instead eating cereal. Though it and the other mannequins behind are shortly eaten by the Gloink Queen, who orders 300 cheeseburgers.

As Pomni questions this, she spots the gummy gators leaving and requests a second, leaving a mannequin to get beaten up by the Gloinks. The queen demands them to stop as Ragatha giddily leans on the counter asking if all the Gloinks have names. The queen confirms her theory, saying she would be a terrible mother if they did not. Ragatha thinks of this as beautiful. Pomni tries to speak to Gummigoo, spotting his confused face, instead opting to wish him a good day. He wishes her one back as the two part ways.

Gangle requests Jax to clean the bathroom. Jax repeatedly rejects her pushes for him to be a model and positive employee, saying she is better when she is sad. This causes another cracking sound to come from Gangle. She suggests, after a long pause, that he just needs more training. A big hand grabs Jax and takes him into a dark room with a TV. The TV starts to play a Spudsy's Instructional Employee Training video.

On the video, Gangle says that it was cool to have dreams, like being a manga artist, but those were completely unrealistic and that working at fast food chains can be the better option. Gangle then asks if the viewer was smiling, to which Jax says he is not. Gangle loses her smile and coldly asks "Why not?". Suddenly, a chair and four hands grab Jax and put his face near the screen. Gangle then states that it was time for reevaluation, and the screen starts to flicker two masks, one happy and one sad. Jax is completely bewildered.

Zooble is working as normal, but Ragatha is still disoriented, having only made five or six burgers out of 300. Gangle is requested by the former for help, who is mad about paint being huffed outside of breaks. Ragatha challenges Gangle's authority, ignoring her concern and attempted motivation, eventually flat-out calling her annoying with the happy mask, causing Gangle's mask to crack once more, deciding to opt for a time out and asking Zooble to help Ragatha instead.

A hand sends a perplexed Jax back to the drive-thru, patting him on the head. He walks to see the time still at 12pm, yelling at Gangle that it is probably broken. The saddened Gangle questions if it is just the clock or if everyone is broken. An annoyed Jax witnesses her spiral into anxious insanity, but when her watch ends up beeping for the next hour, It turns out the clock is, in fact, broken.
