-
Conflict
They each try to grab the gameboy from each other, however, the gameboy slips from their hands into the library basement. Cord is upset, and he pushes his uncle aside as he walks into the basement to get it.
Detective Cupid takes away the gameboy from Cord. Cord was fighting the final boss on his gameboy, which is why Cord is angry, meanwhile Dunnbees is angry because Cord wanted to come to help Dunnbeees but isn't helping.
Plot Point 2
Diana tells Dunnbees there is a monster in the basement, and it has been taking employees alive. He laughs it off
Diana tells that she has tried to call the authorities, but they are not willing to help because they think that Diana is crazy. More and more of the staff have disappeared over time due to this. And she urges Detective CUpid not to go in on his own
Yet, he doesn't because not only does he see it at important, because he has experience in karate
Climax
