What's the matter?

You still pouting about

Okay... real talk.

That frosty biscuit

He deserved exactly what he got.

What about all
those candy people?

Did they deserve
to be chopped up?

That was self-defense.

I still feel bad, okay?

[ Sighs ]

I wanna make things
better, not worse.

You will.

Once we get the crown,
we'll change everything.

We can't make this
world any worse.

Bad news, g*ng. The
jewel's magic is depleting.

It might only be good for one
more crown-dimension jump.

So we gotta make
this world count.

We should go now.

Weren't you listenin'?

Ow! In the heart!

It's a lot harder in real life.

[ Grunts, yells ]

That's it.

Aah!

[ Belches ]

That was awesome.

I almost got ate.
This world is scary.

It reminds me of the
Wastelands of Ooo,

Thanks for saving...

I saw how you chomped
those vamp heads.

Impressive. Oh, that?

Easy greasy, baby.

The name's Cake.

Bonnie. My team is
on an urgent mission,

and I could really use
your m*rder skills.

Sorry, lady, but I got my
own mission to think about.

We're looking for a magic
crown. Maybe you've seen it?

Seems our interests
coincide after all.

The Vampire King has the crown.

[ Thunder crashes
] Vampire King?

He uses it to summon clouds

and keep the sky
perpetually dark.

And vampire-friendly.

[ Thunder crashes ]

I'm gonna slay
him or die trying.

Now, that is a party
I don't wanna miss.

And when you're done with
that, we can get the crown?

Sure. Let's get off
the street, blood bags.

[ Liquid pours ] [ Slurps ]

This is my team.

Huntress, our expert
marksman and survivalist.

And that's our munitions

And soup expert.

So what's the plan? Simple.

Infiltrate the hive,

get past hundreds
of vampire minions.

Hundreds? They're
low-level threats.

We can deal with them easily...

with these.

Garlic bombs.

I call them garbos.

What we really have to
look out for is the Star.

The Star?

The Vampire King's ward.
Vicious. Merciless.

The Star has outlived the
rest of his inner circle.

Trained by the V.K. himself.

I've got a score to

I live for this biz.

Thank you, Martin.

Scrabby, that's the

If you let me out,
I could easily

just zap everything
back to normal.

Shut up. I can solve this.

Yeah, your plan of chasing them

all over the vast
multiverse is a real winner.

I've been chasing
the wrong thing.

If I get to the crown
in this world first,

I can wait for
them to come to me.

Well, crap.

Thanks for the idea.

[ Beeping resumes ]
Ugh, leave me alone.

Are you her spy?

Leave him alone.
And watch the baby.

I'm from another world
with another Marcy.

I found her in the rubble
and raised her as my own.

My Marceline became a
great vampire hunter.

And where I come from,
you two fell in love.

[ Groans ]

I would never.

I'm really sorry about Martin.

You should be.

It's your fault
I'm down one man.

And, more importantly, one t*nk.

Wait.

I'm your t*nk.

That could work.

Cake, there are other
magic crowns out there.

What?

It's just... you
could get hurt.

Simon says we're
running out of jumps.

Well, you're not

Yeah, it sucks.

But you should enjoy yourself.

I'm going to go out on a

Why, yes. Nobody

I'm working on perfecting
a red velvet cake myself,

Yeah?

Yeah, he's a

Maybe that's stupid, but...

No, I'm intrigued.

the tasty velvet man.

Uh, okay.

Um, so Mr. Velvet was once
a high-powered attorney.

Ah. I'm a high-powered attorney.
I relate to this character.

So, yeah, he's an attorney
who quit his job...

Hana: Really, Marshall, you don't
think of anyone but yourself.

Because he felt too stifled...
We've all humored you long enough,

but you're not a rock star.

We've got almost one
hour till sundown.

Here's the hive.

We'll split into three
teams to make the drop.

enter from the West.

Good one, highness.
Stupid gum witch. Ow!

you k*ll her already?

Are you questioning me?

No, of course not. [ Grunts ]

Good. Dad wouldn't like that.

Right?

Aah!

She's flippin' nuts.

How did little Marcy
turn into that?

Maybe in this world
she didn't have a you.

She didn't have a me.

Let's finish the drop.

And each drop would include
different characters

until there's a whole
kingdom of pastry menschen.

Ha. I love it. It's dripping
with sentimentality.

Heh, thanks.

[ Bell dinging ]

We've had a lot of fun
tonight, talking about blood.

But all too seldom do we talk
about the blood relationship

of mother and son.

Marshall has always had
a rebellious streak.

You might even say he fancies
himself as "hot blooded."

Oh. [ Laughter ]

Delightful. More of this.

But it turns out that boys
need their mothers after all.

Please don't.

Imagine my surprise
when he came to me

and asked for
re-entry into my world

through the kind attention
of the Lemoncarbs.

I'd like to thank
them for that favor.

You're not welcome.
Never again!

the Vampire King's crown
right off his head.
