A Tow to the Finish Line

Carl builds a wheeled trailer out of a plank and chains the bugbears' wrecked minivan onto the food truck's flatbed, using Rend as ballast while Mongo abuses the truck's horn. Team Sparkles catches up — the sparkling unicorn Dwight and the mandagot Lucienne riding an Avernus Creeper — trades insults with Donut and runs the trailer down on the way past. Over party chat Zev explains the tenth floor's fan meet-and-greet: five hundred bookings, all cancelled by the Earth-system quarantine except one soother superfan who bought a yacht to meet Elle McGibbons. The Royal Court crosses the Hungry Eyes Village finish line seventh, with the Trauco Triplets eliminated.
