Episode 74: Finale pt. 1

So long, folks! Shuffle Quest is over, but it will live on forever in our hearts. To commemorate finishing a collaborative creative work six years in the making, the crew is here once again to yammer and yap and reminisce on the great times we had making this fun show. Thank you all for listening and making this all worth it! Keep it in the stratosphere!!

This is it: The final episode of Shuffle Quest. Our heroes aren't done--back in the world of fiction, the day is not saved, and only they have what it takes to put things right. But to escape the real world, they'll need help from someone very special...tune in to the thrilling end of our silly saga!!

After defeating Red Star leader David Xanatos, our heroes were launched through a portal to the weirdest world yet: ours. That's right folks. The Shuffle Crew is in the real world. They'll probably be fine, right? Right??

The Shuffle Crew has found the enemy's secret weapon, Universe Goo, a coalesced mass of the essence of all fictional universes fused into one, giving them incredible powers beyond description! Can they catch up to David Xanatos and his Red Star forces before they begin their invasion of reality itself? Probably, otherwise this episode would be really short!

Turns out this shit was Gargoyles all along! The Shuffle Crew have been unknowingly manipulated all along by David Xanatos, leader of the Red Star, as key elements of his plot to concentrate all fictional powers and tech into his world, so that he may become powerful enough to take on the Real World in open warfare. He wants the Crew by his side when he does...will they join? I mean, no. Obviously it's no

Our heroes are in the Real World...but stuff isn't adding up. Why is the Red Star real? Why do they consider the Shuffle Crew as some kind of heroic celebrities? How come they have a statue of Terok Nor in their museum? And who's in charge of this whole thing anyway? The Crew is in for a true shock!

It's the Shuffle Quest finale arc! After discovering the actual real world, Olmec activated a mysterious "Recall Protocol" that saw him hurtling toward reality, some other entity in control of his stony body! The Crew is finally going to the real world, but it's going to be very different than they could have ever expected!

Uh oh! The Crew blew up Fortnite world! It's OK if you forgot but that's kind of the opposite thing of what they are supposed to do (prevent world blowing up). Olmec was already stressed about the ever-dwindling chances of our heroes saving reality, but he's probably gonna be really mad now!

The crew has hacked themselves into Fortnite's original mode and met its original designer, who also wishes for the game's destruction. Will they find a way to break the endless cycle of battle royales and escape the world of Fortnite? Will Kate Bush and Phia learn to forge a true friendship? Will Ruddy get his gamer son Assy to play a different game? Check it out!

The Shuffle Crew is at their wit's end trying to figure out how they can possibly escape the mashed-up world of Fortnite. It seems like playing by the rules isn't getting them anywhere...but maybe Ruddy's hacking skills can unlock a side of Fortnite the world doesn't want them to see.
