Moonlight bathes the gloomy cell as Sticks deactivates the mournful record player. Despair grips her; she questions her own limbs, fearing her reality is fractured. A low, mechanical groan pierces the silence. Peering through the iron bars, she witnesses a chilling tableau: the villagers and Team Sonic stand frozen, eyes glazed, utterly enslaved by Dreamcaster’s purple-clad form. Dr. Eggman struts into view, his laughter echoing off the stone walls. 'You fools!' he proclaims, gesturing to his hypnotic creation. 'Television and charm have secured your obedience!' Orbot scoffs at the lack of charisma, but Eggman revels in his brag-worthy, dream-controlling brilliance.
