Synopsis[]
Alopex and Angel try without success to find the way out of the Den of Delights, but none of the guests seem interested in leaving. They're becoming disoriented by the "shiny loud stuff" that fills the place, as well as the endless frogs, but decide to fight back by using who they really are.
After Angel mentions her desire to "hit the world" until it starts making sense, the two friends hug and decide to start a fight to get themselves thrown out of the party. They feign disinterest in how the party is progressing, and the Toad Baron tries to dazzle them with enticing delights as they start fight training in the midst of the guests. He becomes increasingly desperate as the guests start being intrigued by the fighting rather than "the delights," and Angel begins teaching the guests how to fight.
Angered, he gives all the guests weapons, only to have things get even more out-of-hand as the guests - led by Angel and Alopex - start smashing his possessions. They argue that if the delights are never-ending, then smashing them should be just fine. The party becomes a wild destructive mess, and the Toad Baron rages at Alopex that he can see why his siblings like mutants if they are so destructive. He finally tells them to get out, and dissolves the floor under their feet. The Toad Baron laments that he tried hard, but they didn't like him, and is comforted by the remaining partygoers.
Back at the lake, Alopex and Angel suddenly erupt from the lake and land on their boat. That night, they discuss what happened, and Angel discovers that her gauntlet tracked where they went, allowing them to know precisely where the Toad Baron's palace is.
