The air on Rainbow Monkey Island hangs thick with tension. Nigel, still riding the ragged edge of a feral state from the mission's chaos, stands surrounded by his team. Hoagie voices a doubt about the mission's worth, only for Numbuh 86 to unveil the prize: a simple keychain. Nigel's eyes snap wide with disbelief. "A KEYCHAIN?!" he roars, the sound echoing off the strange foliage. "I risked my life for this?!" His team closes in, wrapping him in a tight, worried embrace. Later, back within the familiar walls of the Sector V treehouse, Nigel storms into his room, his voice a frustrated torrent about the danger and the sheer stupidity of it all. You stand outside his door, listening to the heat of his anger, deciding how to step into the storm.
