Summary
The player must complete a captcha that says "if there was no insanity it would be necessary to create it," and are not let through unless they have a high enough typing speed. A cutscene plays with Toast, Ian, and Paula, where they reënact a scene from the Deus Ex Malkavian Mod, with audio sentence-mixed from various Half-Life characters. Ian takes the place of JC Denton, while Paula takes the place of Paul Denton, and Toast takes the place of Lobster. After that, the player gets to walk around the room as Ian. If the player walks up to the toaster in the room, it suggests that Ian should go to Toast to make a silent takedown. Doing this plays a Fire Emblem–style combat animation in which Ian shoots Toast with a GEP gun, who cries "friendly fire, friendly fire!" turtlehat's silhouette giving a thumbs-up gesture appears on the screen, followed by distorted music and the thumbnail of the plural of remix is remices.
