Kitty: Welcome to the Masked Toon Singer, everybody! We've seen Group A take on Group B, but in the end, Triceratops and the Venus Flytraps were eliminated, revealing themselves to be Gambit of the X-Men, and the Dazzlings from "Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks." Now, it's time for Group C to take on Group D to see who will join them in the Face-Off round!

Terry: Oh, this is gonna be a tight battle, I can tell!

Cadence: Because you're from a fighting game?

Terry: (realizing Cadence's point) Yeah, I pretty much walked into that one!

Fred: And, is that Clue Shark gonna show his face again in this episode?

Kitty: I assure you, Fred, that there is NO way that the Clue Shark will pop out again to mess with us!

*Then, the Clue Shark appears on the screen behind Kitty.*

Clue Shark: Wanna bet? ;3

Isabelle: Eek! There he is!

Clue Shark: Now, like before, I'm gonna be popping out to give you idiots clues about the contestants that you might have missed, as well as sharing with you something about myself. Hope you got your thinking caps on, even though you don't, 'cause I'm gonna be droppin' some clues on you. So, catch ya later! ;) (fizzles out)

Isabelle: Well, that was rude!

Cadence: Yeah! How dare he call us idiots! Well, it's pretty true in Fred's case.

Fred: (getting offended) What's THAT supposed to mean? >: (

Kitty: (chuckles nervously) Let's move on, shall we? Let's start this competition with out first member of Group C. She may get mistaken for a raccon, but there's no mistaking this fuzzy little mammal's musical talent. So, let's give a warm welcome to the Red Panda!

Red Panda: I'm not gonna lie, I thought I was gonna be the first member of Group C eliminated. But, everyone seems to like the little guy, or girl in this case, and now I'm on my way to the next round! And, took think that I started out as a sidekick to my husband/partner whenever we go out to fight crime, but recently, I've been starting to make a name for myself. But, I never forgot my partner, despite him taking his frustrations out on me. We've gone on many journeys into mystery together, and even though we were small, our chemistry was as big as a whale. Even when he passed the torch to a petty thief, I still remained loyal to him no matter what. But, right now, it's my turn to be in the spotlight. ;)

Kitty: Amazing, Red Panda! You certainly have the spunk to survive in this competition!

Fred: Oh, definitely! And, her singing's not bad, either!

Cadence: Yeah, let's go with that.

Kitty: Alright. Let's see what kinda clue she has in store for us!

*The Clue Shark then appears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: And, that's my cue! Okay, you dingbats! Here's a little something from the Red Panda's clue package that you missed. (shows everyone an ant farm in the background of the Red Panda's clue package)

Terry: An ant farm?

Isabelle: Maybe it's Princess Atta from "A Bug's Life."

Clue Shark: Just something to think about. Speaking of thinking about clues, here's something about me I'd like to share: during my big screen debut, just about 98% of all my dialogue was completely improvised. Incredible, huh? Well, I'd better scoot on outta here! But, you haven't heard the last of me! (fizzles out)

Kitty: He just WOULDN'T leave us alone, would he?

Terry: I guess not.

Kitty: Well, anyway, let's move on to our next contestant. He may be a Japanese myth, but once you see him on stage, you'll wish he was just a myth. So, coming in with water coming out of his head, it's the Kappa!

Kappa: I gotta say, my luck is really starting to turn around, given how I was able to stay out of the Smackdown. So, I'm starting to feel more confident in myself, and I believe I have what it takes to make it all the way! It's a shame that every time I feel like I came close to getting what I want, everything just falls apart. I swear, all that was just oversights on my part, as there may have been some small details that I may have missed. But, that's impossible! I'm pretty sure I looked over every detail on every gadget I purchase just so I can eat. Oh, well. Maybe I'll be more successful here. After all, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. That's the philosophy I live by. :nod:
Song: "Sea Cruise" by Jimmy Buffet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTSycSxRMPY

Kitty: Wow, that was incredible, Kappa!

Cadence: I feel like getting my two-piece on, and takin' a dip in the pool right now!

Isabelle: I'll bring the vacation juice. ;3

Kitty: But, first, let's see what kind of clue the Kappa has in store for us!

*The Clue Shark appears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: I'm glad you asked, pussycat. ;) Here's something from the Kappa's clue package that I'm sure went over your pathetic little heads. (shows everyone a trunk with the initials "C.J." on it)

Terry: C.J.?

Isabelle: What does "C.J." stand for?

Fred: I think I have an idea.

Clue Shark: That'll make your heads ache. And, here's a little something about me! (pulls out a jar of eyeballs) I know a few gals that have a good eye for detail. Well, it's time for me to swim on outta here! So, I'll catch ya later! ;) (fizzles out)

Terry: We're gonna need a bigger stage.

Kitty: Agreed, Terry. Well, let's move on to the last member of Group C. You may see her standing motionless in the middle of cornfields, but pretty soon, you'll be seeing her shoot for the stars. So, grab your pitchforks, and let's hear it for the Scarecrow!

Scarecrow: Hmph. I always knew I was gonna survive the Smackdown against the Wizard. Besides, if I could survive a firing squad execution, I feel like I can take on any challenge that comes my way. But, there's nothing more challenging than trying to stay in business while dealing with some REALLY stiff competition, particularly the big cats on top of the urban jungle. But, I can always count on my loyal employees to help me get through a hard time, even if they tend to be lazy, troublesome, or not the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree. I doubt that they even know that I'm actually on this show, but I do know that they're supporting me through this competition no matter what. So, keep flying high, you guys!
Song: "Every Day is a Winding Road" by Sheryl Crow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3F_TYXjx-Sk

Kitty: Wow, Scarecrow! I knew everyone was smart to keep you in the competition!

Terry: Yeah, skills like that could definitely lead her to the finale. ;)

Cadence: Agreed!

Kitty: Alright, now, let's get to the Scarecrow's special clue.

*Then, the Clue Shark appears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: That's where I come in. Okay, panel, here's a little something about the Scarecrow that you might have missed. ;) (shows everyone a taxidermied warthoug in the background of the Scarecrow's clue package whose fur was died blue)

Fred: A blue warthog? Is she someone from the lodge?

Cadence: Uh, two problems with that, Fred. One: it's the Loyal Order of Water Buffalos, not the Loyal Order of Warthogs.

Isabelle: And, second: I thought you didn't allow women in the lodge.

Fred: Good point.

Clue Shark: And, while you're noodling on THAT, here's something about me to think about. (shows everyone a chart of the Greek alphabet) I spent nearly my whole life learning this alphabet. Well, that's it from me for now. Toodles! ;) (fizzles out)

Kitty: Oh, that Clue Shark! Why does he keep messing with us?

Terry: Boredom, probably.

Kitty: Oh, never mind. Let's just move on to Group D. First up in Group D, is a stone-cold creature whom you might think is just a harmless statue, but can strike down when you least expect it. So, give it up for the Gargoyle!

Gargoyle: Holy cow! I never thought I'd make it to the next round! I guess I'm pretty dang popular with everyone back home. But, why is that? Well, I think I have a pretty good idea for it: it's because that I've been a big part of their lives for many years. I started out in a very popular children's book series, and it really influenced their academic achievements. Sure, I can be a little outlandish in my approach to education, but the drive and passion to give everyone a good education was definitely there, and I couldn't be more proud of myself. And, I'm glad to hear that I have family helping me keep my passion going even after I left. But, who knows? I might make a surprise comeback. It's happened before.
Song: "Come to my Window" by Melissa Etheridge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fxMHHyOtgY

Kitty: That was incredible, Gargoyle! It's no wonder everyone loved you in the first round. :D

Fred: Yeah, it's almost hard to believe that she was once a teacher.

Isabelle: I'd take her classes in a heartbeat. ^^

Kitty: Okay. Let's see what kind of clue the Gargoyle has in store for us.

*Then, the Clue Shark appears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: And, that's where I come in. Here's a little something from the Gargoyle's clue package that went over your feeble little minds! (shows everyone a magician's hat with gloves and a magic wand in the Gargoyle's clue package)

Terry: A magician's top hat? Complete with gloves and wand?

Cadence: Could it be Zatanna from DC?

Clue Shark: And, as for me, I'll show you my true identity as soon as the stars align just right. ;) Well, that's it from me for now, but I'll be back with more clues about our remaining. So, see ya! ;) (fizzles out)

Fred: Oh, that Clue Shark's sure gonna look good hanging over my fireplace!

Kitty: Calm down, Fred. Although, I don't blame you for thinking that. But, here's a fish that I'm certain you'll be happy to see. He's another surprise from Group D that I didn't think would make it this far. So, here is the fast, tasty, and surgically talented Sturgeon. ;)

Sturgeon: It's almost hard to believe that I'm actually advancing in the next round. Now, I'm hoping to ride off into the Face-Off round, and hopefully to the finals! And, to thing that it all started when I went to a tower to rescue some chick with really long hair. Turns out she was a princess of a kingdom that worships the sun, or so I've been told, and that her hair was said to have healing powers or something. But, whatever the story is, I got her away from her insane guardian, and now she's just dust in the wind. Seriously, all that trouble just to stay young? Wouldn't a spa service have been a more humane alternative? I'll never understand women.
Song: "Not Even the Trees" by Hootie and the Blowfish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89LRsMkGKQ4

Kitty: That was such a moving song, Sturgeon.

Isabelle: For someone who doesn't sing that much, he's got such a nice voice. <: )

Terry: Yeah, he ain't too shabby.

Kitty: Alright, then. What kind of clue does the Sturgeon have in store for us today?

*The Clue Shark appears once again on the screen behind them.*

Clue I said I'd be back! And, with a clue you might have missed in the Sturgeon's clue package. (shows everyone a cigar smoldering in an ashtray that was in the background of the Sturgeon's clue package)

Fred: A cigar?

Cadence: Maybe it's J. Jonah Jameson?

Terry: I dunno. He'd probably think this show is dumb.

Clue Shark: Oh, and here's a blast from the past that will link you to MY identity. (shows everyone an image of the Panther from Season 2) I come from the same era as your Season 2 Champion! Noodle on that! As for me, I gotta make like a banana, and split! So, see ya! (fizzles out)

Kitty: I swear, I'm gonna clip his fins if he shows his face here again! But, in the meantime, let's bring in our final contestant! He's a surprise contender from the last round, and grazed through the Smackdown like it was no problem! So, be ready to grab the bull by the horns, 'cause here comes the Minotaur!

Minotaur: Boy, it was close during the Smackdown. I thought I was gonna be sent back to my universe for sure. But, I showed that Shower who was boss, and now I have a shot at winning the title of the King of the Masked Toon Singers! But, I couldn't have done it without the support of everyone back home. Especially my son. He's always looked up to me throughout my career, even before that scientist got me mixed up in his time travel endeavors, and after rescuing him from a sentient goo creature, he admired me even more. Even going so far as to become just like me when he grows up. Naturally, I freaked out, knowing he might go through the same stuff I did. Eh, kids. What can you do?
Song: "Hot Patootie" by Meatloaf: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qki8CDaHGoU

Kitty: Wow, that was really good, Minotaur!

Terry: I guess he's trying to prove to us why he won the Smackdown last time.

Isabelle: Yeah, but it was still close.

Fred: But, still. You can't deny that he's got talent.

Kitty: Alright, let's see what kind of clues he's got for us!

*The Clue Shark reappears one last time on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: Oh, yeah! And, here's a little something about the Minotaur that you might have missed. (shows everyone a world globe next to a hero sandwich in the Minotaur's clue package)

Terry: A globe?

Fred: And, a hero sandwich?

Cadence: How on Earth do those two things match up?

Clue Shark: Let that sink in. Oh, and I have one more clue about me that I'm sure will scratch your heads. (shows everyone a photo of a mountain that he pulled out of his coat) This is where I was born. Well, that's all from me. But, I'll be back, hoping to mess with you guys even more. So, farewell, my friends. (fizzles out)

Isabelle: I swear, every time he shows up, he scares me.

Kitty: Don't worry, Isabelle. We'll get back at him one day. But, that's it for Group C Vs. Group D. Now, it's up to the viewers at home. Leave a comment below telling us which two from each group you believe should move on to the Face-Off round. The contestant from each group with the least amount of votes will be unmasked, and sent back to their universe. So, happy voting, everyone! ^^
