Plot[]
A surprising fall[]
Stampy opens the episode, L for Leeeee x dashing straight in front of him and dropping off of his balcony, to his surprise, due to falling off of the roof behind him. Recalling him to be in the above bedroom the night before, Stampy wonders if he had broken a hole in the roof to go on top, only to find no evidence of a hole in sight upon investigation, wondering what had just happened and calling the introduction "an unexpected start". Distantly, through the window, he sees L for Leeeee x running around from where he landed, and to determine his next location for him, Stampy visits the Love Garden, calling L for Leeeee x out for surprising him in spite of not having his cake yet, finding him already preparing a cake for the exact spot he will be in. Reminded of his attitude, Stampy tells L for Leeeee x that he had missed him the previous episode, and was upset by it. Due to this, Stampy also tells him of what happened in the previous episode's introduction, iBallisticSquid instead throwing ink sacs down on the floor, to his disappointment. Looking down shamefully upon hearing this, he assures L for Leeeee x that it isn't a fault of his own since he has returned already, and to make up for the absence, Stampy can have a cake presently, and then have another later after inevitably waking up again. Eating the cake in the Love Garden placed by L for Leeeee x, Stampy realises that he hadn't left any behind for his partner, deciding to share the next one with him instead. Stampy then gives a shoutout to "Tamsin Curtis" because of a stop-motion animation she made of L for Leeeeee x giving Stampy an enchanted sword in his bedroom, an action which is replicated in the Love Garden, returning it back before he forgets, giving further context to the video, with it additionally having voices separately, and additionally capturing his and L for Leeeeee x's characters well.
Deciding he shouldn't waste time, Stampy assures his viewers that he is indeed taking a dog with him, as he is visiting the Pick-A-Pet Pet Shop past the doghouse to pick up Fluffy. Mittens, however, is still on her holiday, about to give further context until he is interrupted by the sound of a zombie in a mysterious nearby location, thinking it to be in the underground in the Toy Town Toy Shop. Inside of the pet shop, Stampy is also alerted by the sound of a creeper, realising it to be in the container for the pet shop entitled "Googlie Goods", deciding to give clarity to the location as the Pick-A-Pet Pet Shop, stating that the hostile mobs hang out in the back container, assuring his viewers that the situation is safe due to them being behind the glass, though L for Leeeeee x decides to take caution as Stampy stands Fluffy up.
Adding an entrance & an alert system to Bury Berry[]
Leaving the Pick-A-Pet Pet Shop to run to Stampy's Funland, Stampy continues about Mittens, having received a sign from her telling him "Gone on holiday. Don't look for me. -Your Cat", finding it to be weird, accepting that she may have simply wanted a break from him due to taking her with him every episode, wondering if she was tired, deciding Mittens will join him. Explaining his aim for the present episode, Stampy states that he is adding the finishing touches to Bury Berry and then playing on it via 1v1 against L for Leeeeee x, though he states that it is possible to play in teams. With this, Stampy also states that he is only being joined by L for Leeeeee x, hoping to have fun regardless.
Arriving at the unfinished Bury Berry, Stampy is about to explain the progress made until he hears a zombie in the background, apparently within the circus, only to find none, and then continue explaining, showing the right room in its complete form, and then showing the left room having been added in next to it in the same format, switching the red berries to blue instead. Stampy decides to explain the rules of the mini-game additionally, stating that players bury the berries in the tree underground, and then switch sides to find the opposing person's berries, the mini-game nearly complete. However, Stampy wishes to add an entrance hall as well as a bell to indicate when one side has finished burying. Starting on the entrance hall, Stampy surrounds the right door with oak wood, then snaking it across with the intention of blocking off each room from sight of the players. Extending the first section forward by two, Stampy then switches diagonally forward by one to create the room to store the berries once obtained, diagonally adding three to the entrance already present, telling Fluffy to move due to blocking the next place he has to build, finding her to be after attention due to staying in the pet shop the entire time, finding her to be eager to run around, and be somewhat excited, to his surprise, hoping she will root for him during the game against L for Leeeeee x.
Building up the main entrance walls by three and creating an entrance, Stampy then asks L for Leeeeee x to decorate the entrance, deciding to creat the alert to notify the other player of if they have buried their berries. After eating a porkchop, Stampy judges the middle of the room and assures his viewers that what he intends to do is simple, being a button in the middle to trigger a duo of note blocks, requiring him to excuse the ground underneath for the redstone. Finding stone smelting in a furnace, Stampy gathers the necessary amount, and then crafts it into a set of stone buttons, additionally crafting the necessary amount of note blocks, stating why he is also adding two note blocks in that it amplifies the sound of the note blocks. Then, judging the button's position, Stampy positions redstone on both sides to then lead into note blocks as intended, assuring his viewers that the redstone is possible for even his viewers can recreate. Placing the button, Stampy realises that he requires redstone underneath it, and then tests it to find it working, though it plays a bass drum instead due to being on stone, as he explains in the form of the instrument of a note block determining its instrument. To replace the instrument, Stampy uses dirt underneath the note blocks instead to create the piano instead, and then tests the button again to create the intended alert sound.
Completing the rooms within Bury Berry[]
After creating the alert system on the right side, Stampy then travels through the entrance hall to find L for Leeeeee x still decorating, admiring his design choices, and then positions the stone button, which triggers the same redstone, stating that the alert serves to tell the opponent that there are only ten seconds remaining. In terms of actually burying, Stampy notes in advance that shovels and shears are restricted, and only bare hands can be used. Returning to the entrance that L for Leeeeee x is building, Stampy decides to assist him in the endeavour in regard to the fences to place the berries onto, requiring a length of five fences, expanding out directly from the middle.
After setting up the fences to determine the berries counted, Stampy then replaces the floor below in the entrance hall with dirt due to being excessively a sand biome, a block of which he dislikes typically, intending to additionally include a trail from the already-grass interior of the rooms to transform the main entrance hall into having a grass floor, considering a cobblestone trail to represent stepping stones, due to simply wanting the mini-game to look appealing upon entry, additionally clarifying the final adjustments made in that the front entrance also has to be covered with leaf decorations to then play the first game. Destroying the floor, Stampy then rapidly fills in the floor with dirt with the intention of eventually converting it to grass. With the mini-game near-complete, Stampy states his desire to win, since he always wins the first ever game of something, though he is aware of L for Leeeee x thinking the same mindset.
Filling in the floor with dirt, Stampy sees L for Leeeee x adding some random oak wood shelves via slabs, which are supposedly to use for porkchops. After counting up the number of fences expanding out each side as five, Stampy then declares that the mini-game is set up, and that the two of them should sleep due to it being night, leading himself out and looking at the path for Bury Berry to find that there is a styled path added to it, which he admires. Using the circus as a means of sleeping, Stampy firstly takes caution of any potential hostile mobs, verifying that there are none as he additionally assures L for Leeeeee x that he won't fire him out of the cannon nearby again, using the backstage area to sleep, planning to have cake afterwards and then play the first game of Bury Berry.
Bury Berry[]
Resetting to day, Stampy decides the name to be the best part of the mini-game, additionally saying that he took it as an excuse to call a game "Bury Berry", and that he wanted a simple game without redstone, of which it is in that it is two identical rooms for berries. With the day having come, Stmapy announces the morning cake, deciding on the two cakes already set up in the circus backstage and eating them partially. After, they leave the circus, saying that he additionally wants to add a sign to mark the mini-game as it is, crafting a sign and positioning it left of the entrance to write "Bury Berry", finalising it. Doing so, he informs L for Leeeee x to remove all of his quick select contents, seeing him modify the shelves from before still, and then decides to declare the beginning of the game, assigning Fluffy as his partner. To start, Stampy explains to L for Leeeeee x that he will give a countdown so they both run in to bury one another's berries, and then gives said countdown.
Starting the game, Stampy tells his viewers that the main strategy is to be sneaky by making the grass still look like grass upon burying the berries, since dirt would highlight their locations. To execute this strategy, Stampy decides to use misleading dirt in order to throw off the trail of the actual dirt, additionally positioning the berries just on the edge of where they were actually dug, as well as setting down a berry by the corner and the tree itself, adding extra misleading dirt blocks and another by the entrance, burying the final berry and adding further misleading blocks, pointing out how most of the dirt he had placed before has already converted to grass. Stampy then presses the button to signify a ten-second remaining time, requiring himself and L for Leeeeee x to speed forward. Adding the final misleading dirt blocks.
Switching sides, Stampy firstly decides to search through the parts that appear dug already, only to see him using the same method that Stampy did. Accidentally hitting Fluffy again, he decides to sit her down, and then finds the first blue berry in the front left corner. Searching further, Stampy finds him placing one berry right next to the button, an idea Stampy admires, and then searches for the rest, thinking he had seen a blue berry in a glitched block. Deciding to rely on luck, Stampy commends himself for finding two already, and realises immediately upon repeatedly destroying the grass without tools takes a noticeably long period of time, walking over to the dividing wall to hear L for Leeeee x doing Stampy's method of relying on luck outright. Deciding to think tactically, Stampy searches around the tree and the entrance, and then searches through another corner as he also speculates the possibility of him gathering all of the blue berries together. Stampy wonders if he he is digging down extra, and then declares that he is outright relying on luck, having not realised how quickly dirt would reset to grass as he thought. Continuing to dig, Stampy continues to find none, and then officially declares his aforementioned shovel rule, now converting the game into that of a digging game instead, surprised that he has only found two of the blue berries, expressing the idea for a trick to bury quickly and then alert the other player in order to prevent the dirt from being converted into grass. Continuing to dig, Stampy finds the third blue berry next to the tree, along with the fourth berry, only to eventually hear L for Leeeeee x alerting Stampy via the alert, which Stampy responds to by correcting him on how players show their winnings. He states in desperation that he can't believe the speed he would have gathered all of the berries in, and grows desperate to simply find them. Due to L for Leeeee x dancing, Stampy decides that he hasn't yet found them and only accidentally pressed the alert, and then switches his method by digging around the edges, finding the final one diagonally by the entrance.
Having gathered all of the blue berries, Stampy then returns back to the entrance hall only to find L for Leeeee x having positioned the red berries already, meaning he was the winner long before, requiring Stampy to inform him to actually run into one another's rooms to indicate the winner clearly. Looking at how much destruction he had caused in his panic, Stampy gains information from L for Leeeee x that he had in fact won the second before, to Stampy's dismay as he had a chance of winning, looking over at the red berry room to find him barely having dug away at the ground unlike him, comparing his spontaneous desperation to a "creeper family". Though Stampy did enjoy the game, it hadn't worked exactly as he thought it would, since the grass spread over the dirt quicker than he thought, considering possibly using the strategy of teams, such as 3v3, thinking it to be fun. Stampy then deems that he has run out of time, congratulating L for Leeeee x for winning and additionally seeing him already fixing the ground, thanking him and Fluffy for joining him, and then ending the episode with the line "And of course, a big thank you to you, uh, for deciding to watch my video. But that's the end of it now. Thanks for watching, and I will see all later. Byeeeee!"
