Transcript
Prologue:

Zizzy: Remember, we’re going for batteries and getting out of here!

Pony: Fine, but if I find any carrots, I’m taking them!

(The round starts)

Pony: ... The carrots here wouldn’t have expired by now, right?

Pony: Hmmm... I think I could move this shelf if only I had some energy.

Zizzy: We have the batteries, now let's get to the exit!

Epilogue:

Mimi: Aha, look who's back! I told you they'd be back before noon, Giraffy!

Giraffy: A deal's a deal. Great, now I have to cook for the rest of the week...

Player: We've got the batteries! Is the radio ready?

Mimi: It sure is! Let's get this thing working!

Later,

Mimi: Here goes nothing... Hello? Can anyone hear me?

Giraffy: Are you sure it's working?

???: ... Greetings, we can hear you. This is Settlement Six speaking. Who is this?

Mimi: Oh! This is the Safe Place! How can I help?

???: ... We are looking for communities to trade with. We'd like to meet up.

Mimi: Where should we go to find you?

???: ... Meet us at the Old Oak.

Giraffy: It looks like we lost their signal.

Mimi: We should meet them. We've been living together for months without seeing another survivor.

Pony: I don't think this is a good idea. We don't know anything about them...

Giraffy: Is this another one of your jokes, Pony?

Pony: No, Giraffy, I mean it. We have no idea who these people are, and I don't have any reason to trust them.

Zizzy: I agree. I don't think we should trust them. But, I still think we should check it out.

Pony: What?! You can't go, Zizzy. We don't know who these people are.

Zizzy: Pony, we know how to handle ourselves out there. If we get into trouble, we know how to get out of it.

Player: Zizzy has a point. After all, you two fought an army of infected all by yourselves at the plant.

Pony: I suppose so... I don't feel right about this, but I guess we should try anyways.

Zizzy: Then it's time to see some new faces! Who is staying?

Giraffy: I need to stay. I need to harvest as much as I can before winter comes.

Mimi: I'm going to try and see if I can learn more about this radio.

Zizzy: Then it looks like it's us three once more!

Player: Let's go meet some survivors!

[In the Old Oak,]

Pony: Are you sure this is the place? We haven't seen anyone.

???: Well, well, well... Look at these familiar faces!

Pony: Oh no.

Willow: Pony, the ex-member. It's a shame you left us. You were a very good friend. It's too bad you are nothing to me now.

Willow: (Player name), the officer who took me away from my family. Must've felt good to rip me away from the ones I care about, right?

Willow: And who might you be? You are certainly someone I've never seen before.

Zizzy: You may not know who I am, but I know everything about you and your sick crew.

Willow: Is that so? I suppose Pony told you a lot about us, didn't he, sweetheart? That was one of his many flaws, heh. He could never keep his mouth shut.

Willow: Hmm, what to do, what to do...? Ooh, I know! Take the zebra with us. Leave the two to rot.

Pony: No, leave her alone!

Willow: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold your horses! I don't want to hurt anyone.

Zizzy: It's okay, Pony. I'll stay safe and come back, I promise.

Willow: See? She understands! Now, let's get out of here.

Pony: Zizzy... They're the Silver Paw. When the infection broke out, I needed to find a group. Unfortunately, I was stuck with them. They did awful things, but I was too scared to leave.

Player: What made you leave them?

Pony: That's a story for another time. We need to go save Zizzy before it's too late.

Player: Shouldn't we tell the others?

Pony: There's no time, (Player name). I need you now. I can't do this alone.

Player: Alright, let's follow them.

Trivia

 * For the hints MiniToon gave of Chapter 2, Book 2 one of them was a car (🚗) emoji. He gave a hint for a hole emoji, which looks like a manhole cover (🕳) and hints of a chain (⛓) emoji on a tweet he made.
 * The Store is connected to the Metro, as seen on a wall by the spawn.
 * Another thing to note is that it says Metro: Station 7. Metro is Chapter 7 in Piggy: Book 1, so this might also be a reference.
 * If Pony is given a carrot, he will proceed to push a shelf out of the way to let the player pass.
 * In the end cutscene when Mimi is talking to the person on the radio, Zee, one of Zizzy's sisters, is watching them.
 * This is the second chapter that requires the player to give an item to an NPC rather than using the white key to escape, the first being Plant.
 * This chapter currently has the longest ending cutscene.
 * This is the only map where an NPC can be given two different items.
 * If Zizzy is given two batteries, she will not take the grass.
