Among Us Logic 8/transcript

Where We Started
[The episode begins with “Where We Started.” The camera pans over some mountains before entering a house and focusing in Mr. Egg as he sings.]

Mr. Egg: (singing)

I was looking out the door

Always looking round for more

Didn’t know it

Had everything I needed

Tried to give me all the clues

Hoping I will see the truth

Didn’t know it

Didn’t know ‘til we parted

Couldn’t see the signs

Until you had enough and said goodbye

Wish I could go back to where we started

Wish I could find a way to say

Sorry that I let you go

Sorry that I got so cold

Wish I could go back to what we were

I know I was stupid

I was but I folded

Know I was stupid…

[The audio becomes muffled, as if playing on a speaker; it is revealed that The Gentleman (in a smoking jacket and fez) is watching the song as a music video. Mr. Cheese walks in, wearing a nightgown and hair curlers.]

Mr. Cheese: What (yawns) are you watching, the Gentleman?

The Gentleman: (startled) Oh! Nothing!

[He slams the computer shut and gives Mr. Cheese a thumbs-up.]

The Gentleman: It’s nothing!

Sad Times
[Scene changes to Player spawning in the lobby. Veteran and Captain approach him.]

Player: (sad sigh)

Veteran: Hey, what’s up, home slice?

Captain: Yeah, hiya, bestie!

Veteran: (to Captain) Dude, we talked about this. I’m his best friend. Not you.

Captain: You said we all could be best friends together.

Veteran: That was obviously just a lie to make you feel better.

Player: Guys, if you’re gonna argue, can you do it somewhere else? I’m feeling kinda down today.

Captain: But I want to be around you at all times.

Veteran: Wow, creep alert. Don’t worry, I’ll leave you alone, Player. A real best friend can tell when their buddy needs space.

Captain: Oh, I’ll give him so much space he’ll basically feel completely abandoned!

Veteran: See, now you’re going too far in the other direction.

Captain: Dang it.

[Veteran and Captain exit stage right.]

Player: (sigh)

Mr. Egg: Yeah...I know that feeling.

[Camera cuts to show Mr. Egg standing nearby, wearing pink instead of his usual orange.]

Player: Mr. Egg? Is that you? I barely recognized you in the pink.

Mr. Egg: Well, me and Mr. Cheese couldn’t both be orange. So yeah, here I am. You feeling a little down there, buddy?

Player: Yeah...I’m just kinda bummed I never get to win.

Mr. Egg: I hear you. Love is a tricky game. Sometimes it feels like you are always on the losing side.

Player: What? Love? I’m talking about Among Us.

Mr. Egg: Yeah, but if you really think about it, at its core, isn’t Among Us all about love?

Player: Uh...Not really…

[The Gentleman and Mr. Cheese walk up.]

The Gentleman: Ah, good evening, Player! Good to see you with--

[He realizes it’s Mr. Egg and starts to stumble on his words.]

The Gentleman: Oh. Mr. Egg. I didn’t expect to see you around here anymore. You, uh...look good.

Mr. Egg: (blushing) Thanks!

[Mr. Cheese scowls.]

Mr. Cheese: Wow! Really, the Gentleman?

The Gentleman: Uhh, I mean...you’re ugly. You disgusting pink person.

Mr. Egg: (very hurt) Wow...Ouch…

Player: (aghast) Yeah. Oh my God.

An Odd Combination
[The round begins. Player and Mr. Egg are Impostors. Player spawns in MIRA HQ. Everyone except Mr. Egg runs past him from stage right to left.]

Mr. Egg: This is egg-celent! Now we can hang out the entire game!

Player: (sigh)

Mr. Come on, let’s go kill Mr. Cheese!

[He draws a knife.]

Player: Wait, hold on. I get why you want to kill him, but we gotta be smart about this. Everybody knows about your weird little beef with Mr. Cheese. If he dies first, it might bring on a lot of unwanted suspicion. Yeah, we need easy prey. Someone gullible and stupid.

Mr. Egg: But who could that be?

[Cut to the greenhouse, where Captain is watering flowers. As he sings, Player spins around the room and sneaks up on him.]

Captain: Watering the plants, all day long! Watering the plants while I sing this song! Gotta do my tasks, ‘cause tasks are good. Gotta do my tasks like a crewmate should. Man, that’s another hit song right there.

[Player raises his knife to kill Captain, but before he can do that, Mr. Egg shoots Captain from offscreen.]

Captain: Guh!

Mr. Egg: Bulls-eye.

[He dramatically blows the smoke off his pistol.]

Player: Oh, come on!

[Faint footsteps are heard from the hallway.]

Mr. Egg: (small gasp) Someone’s coming.

Player: Hide!

[Veteran enters the room.]

Veteran: Hey Captain, just wanted to say watch out for Player. If he doesn’t hang out with me mid-game, it’s usually because he’s the Impost--

[Captain’s body falls over.]

Veteran: Ope. Yep. He’s dead all right.

Stoner Gets Rocked
[Veteran reports the body, summoning an emergency meeting.]

Veteran: Captain’s dead, everyone.

Mr. Cheese: No, not our fearless leader!

Engineer: Where did you find him, Veteran?

Veteran: The greenhouse. Except now it’s more like the red house. You know, from all the blood and stuff.

Player, the Gentleman, and Gnome: (disgusted reactions)

Mr. Cheese: Yuck! Heh-heh!

Stoner: Well, like, it wasn’t me, dudes and dudetts. I was chillin’ in the lab, doing tasks.

Mr. Egg: Alone? I don’t know, guys. That seems pretty...sus.

Player: It sure does, Mr. Egg. I’m casting my vote for Stoner.

Stoner: Dudes…

Veteran: I don’t know, guys. I think it might be Player.

Gnome: Nah, it’s Stoner. Let’s send him flying!

Stoner: Dudette!

Player: All those in favor of throwing Stoner off the balcony to his inevitable doom, say “aye.”

Everyone except Stoner and Mr. Cheese: Aye!

Mr. Cheese: Sounds good!

[Stoner is ejected. He falls through the air.]

Stoner: AAAAAAAAH!

[“Stoner was not an Impostor” appears onscreen. Cut back to the Cafeteria, where everyone has left except for Player, Mr. Egg, and Veteran.]

Getting Egged
Veteran: Well, well, well. What do we have here? A couple of Impostors scheming?

Mr. Egg: (nervous) Uhh...No…

Player: I don’t know what you’re talking about, Veteran.

Veteran: Yeah, sure you don’t. You may have all the others fooled, but not me. I finished twelfth in my class at DeVry online learning. I’m basically a Mensa-level genius. And I’m on to you, pal. I’m not leaving your sight. Every move you make, every step you take, I’ll be watching you.

Player: Oh, I don’t think you will, Veteran.

Veteran: Why’s that?

Player: Because there’s something your genius brain didn’t put together.

Veteran: I find that hard to believe, but go on.

Player: Correct me if I’m wrong, Mr. Egg, but don’t you have to be alive to spy on someone?

Mr. Egg: You sure do, sir.

Veteran: Yeah, but how does that relate to--(realizes it) Oh no. You’re gonna kill me. How did I not see this coming?

[Player pulls out a gun and points it at Veteran.]

Player: Any last words, Veteran?

Veteran: (teary and sweaty) Yes! Tell my family that I--

[Mr. Egg slices him in half.]

Mr. Egg: I got him, sir!

Player: Dang it, Mr. Egg! Stop stealing all my sweet kills!

Mr. Egg: Sorry, sir. Won’t happen again.

The Gentleman: No. It most certainly will not.

Player: (fumbling) Uh, it isn’t what it looks like? (nervous laugh)

A Sour Choice
[The Gentleman reports the body.]

The Gentleman: I am saddened to report that our dear dear friend Veteran...is dead.

Engineer: NOOOOOO!

Gnome: (tearfully) He was like a brother to us!

Player: Wait, really? I didn’t know you guys were so close.

Engineer: We go frolfing together on the weekends.

Player: Frolfing?

Engineer: Short for frisbee golf.

Player: Oh my God, no-one calls it that.

The Gentleman: Can we please get back to the point, gentlemen? Veteran is dead, and I know who did it.

Mr. Egg: It’s Mr. Cheese!

Mr. Cheese: How dare you say my name!

Mr. Egg: Mr. Cheese and the Gentleman did the murders, and they’re trying to pin them on Player.

Gnome: Oh my God! Is that true, the Gentleman?

The Gentleman: No! Of course not.

Engineer: Gee whiz, babe. I don’t know who to believe.

Player: I think Mr. Egg is right. Let’s vote out the Gentleman.

Engineer: See, now I think it’s Player.

Player: What?! Why?

Engineer: I don’t know, you just seem kinda...I don’t know--

Gnome: Sus.

Engineer: Yeah, sus. That’s the word. I was totally on board when Mr. Egg said it, but with you, it just seems way fishier.

Mr. Egg: (sarcastic) Way to go, Player.

Player: Wow, you too, Mr. Egg? You guys all suck.

[Player is ejected. He falls through the sky.]

Player: Thanks for watching the videoooooooo!

[Credits roll.]
