Plot[]
Cake-eating competition & cardboard Stampy[]
Stampy opens the episode, introducing L for Leeeee x in the form of the sword he typically has having been thrown onto the ground, with L for Leeeee x proceeding. To indicate if he is feeling good, Stampy asks L for Leeeeee x to jump, which he does, seeing him then hover, to Stampy's surprise, wondering if he is a wizard bear, making various portmanteau of the term after, and then requesting cake from him and only being able to eat three segments of it. Offering L for Leeeee x to eat the rest, Stampy finds that he actually eats a collection of cakes in the area above him in spite of giving Stampy himself only one cake. Visiting his Love Garden, Stampy then explains the purpose in that he looks at a sign including someone's name, and then thanks them for something they did, not adding those who ask, giving a shoutout to "Connor Lyver" for making a cardboard cutout of himself, L for Leeeee x, and iBallisticSquid , unsure of what exactly he will use them for or where they are stored due to their size, thanking him for creating them, assuring him that he is in company due to there being various talented people included among him.
Visiting the doghouse, Stampy notes that the location is directly underneath the farm, and due to this, he decides to burrow down, only to be shocked by LongShotBTG's sudden appearance, introducing him to the episode, and then breaking down into the doghouse underneath of the farm, breaking straight through as predicted and then blocking up the hole that he came through. Once inside, he greets the dogs, asking how they are doing, and then decides to take Spring, whom he characterises as the one on top of the dog ramp for the doghouse.
Building the exterior of a submarine[]
Leaving via the alternative entrance, Stampy explains the plan he has for the episode, not building in Stampy's Funland, nor a shop, instead a new mode of transport, having a rocket ship to go to the Moon and a boat to sail the seven seas, now needing to venture underneath the sea via a submarine, eating a cake randomly placed on the walkway in front of his balcony, appreciating the fact that a cake is set around his world. Walking up the clubhouse hill, he points out the presence of his pier, intending to build the submarine by the SS Stumpy, and then enters into his clubhouse to journey down, considering the building method to be awkward due to them being underwater, hoping to manifest an effective method of doing so, simply failing if he doesn't do such, intending to complete a submarine. Having learned his lesson from prior events, Stampy additionally takes note of the fact that water and dogs, and heights and dogs do not combine together, sitting down Spring in advance, hoping he isn't bored and assigning LongShotBTG to guard him and cater to him consistently.
Starting to build the submarine, Stampy prepares the materials necessary, using orange and white wool to represent his own colour scheme, and in regards to the design, the submarine itself will look somewhat like a clownfish, as well as being a very small vehicle in general, possibly including a dog kennel as well. Having started to build two blocks forward from the pier and one block above sea level, he first creates a 3x3 square, telling his helpers that what he is currently building the top, as the submarine will be underwater, which is the easy part of building the submarine. In regard to the issue of building underwater, Stampy states that he needs the air to repeatedly breath, meaning he will have to use torches to block out the water and create air bubbles to breathe, as well as signs.
With both materials and a complete roof, Stampy goes underwater to continue building, setting up a pillar with a sign and glowstone to signify its location, and he returns to building the submarine. His helpers, being presumptuous, start to build the roof straight downwards instead, which Stampy decides to fix by adding the template, expanding the shape outwards by one on the first side to create a tube-like shape, and the submarine itself being tiny, due to only being three blocks wide and three blocks tall with an extra part edging outward from the third layer just above the roof, with the length being three-three-three of orange-white-orange to create a nine-block long vehicle. Stampy additionally plans for there to be an featuring poking out from the roof in order to serve as an entrance into the submarine. Giving advice about how to use the torches, Stampy also tells his viewers to frequently renew the source due to it only working in short intervals, otherwise the player is required to return their oxygen.
Stampy hopes that he is building the submarine correctly, and then realises that he is running out of oxygen again, requiring him to use a torch to renew it, along with L for Leeeee x. Upon connecting the tube's general shape, Stampy then drags it along the length of the submarine itself, copying the main pattern. In his attempt to do so, he ends up nearly drowning, requiring him to desperately use his torch and renew his oxygen again. With his hunger levels additionally having decreased, Stampy additionally decides to eat the cake that LongShotBTG gave to Spring, joking about him returning into the water after doing so. With the general shape nearly complete, Stampy then states that the final remaining priority is to remove the water for the interior, which is accomplished by filling in the middle area with blocks and removing them again. Verifying the shape of the submarine once again, Stampy realises that his helpers had built the left side incorrectly, requiring him to expand it out by one to match the other side, and to copy the ring that he had made to maintain the shape. Stampy advises an additional method of removing the water by using wood or wool to burn away in the event of using stone to make sure that the blocks don't have to be destroyed upon placing them down again.
After adding in the basic shape of the submarine, Stampy decides to then enter inside, telling his helpers to do the same and fill in the submarine with dirt to destroy again, while he builds an entrance hatch at the top, which will include a ladder leading directly down in order to enter in. Returning back to the pier to craft one, Stampy then eats another segment Spring's cake, and decides to give him a porkchop out of pity due to not having eaten the cake. Additionally, Stampy crafts a trapdoor, using a stone slab to set it down. After doing so, Stampy notices one of his helpers failing to breath, desperately advising them to add a torch or sign by them, only for LongShotBTG to drown anyway, something he had predicted would happen.
Adding the stone slab for the trapdoor, the ladders, and the trapdoor, Stampy then builds the back of the submarine, filling in the back and then adding a propeller with iron bars. While filling in the back itself, Stampy notices that people will criticise him for using a shovel to break wool, assuring his viewers that it's an effective idea due to Efficiency enchantments, which he considers to be more handy than shears in the case of building a wool submarine, sarcastically adding that he is unsure of how many submarines are made out of wool, since the wool will suck all of the water around the area up. After filling in the back, Stampy crafts iron bars and places them in a "+" formation, which he thinks appears as it should.
Building the interior of a submarine[]
Considering the submarine to take its authentic shape, Stampy then enters inside in the state that it is to find all of the water being cleared away by L for Leeeee x, an operation of which he admires. Since the submarine on the interior is only two blocks tall, Stampy thinks it to be too small, deciding to remove the middle ceiling just as LongShotBTG returns back after drowning. Stampy expands the interior space as much as it can be, eventually, and then divides the two rooms into an engine room and a recreational room via a white wall, positioning the ladder in the middle with the door to travel between them on the left, telling L for Leeeee x to also craft an iron door as well as two pressure plate for entry.
Then, going to the front, Stampy decides to build the middle on the exterior, lighting up the submarine, and then positioning the window upfront of the submarine as a looking point, only needing to refine the submarine shape through cutting off the bottom corners. Stampy additionally adds fins to the entrance hatch and the back of the submarine to also serve as rudders, and then goes inside to create seats and control panels. Firstly, Stampy breaks through to release the window, which has water behind it, causing it to leak through, immediately removing it, advising his viewers to avoid leaks in a submarine, then adding in the floor at the front, as well as removing elements on the sides of the front that don't match. Getting Stampy's attention, finds a sign reading "Going to have to go:(" written by L for Leeeeee x, which he allows him to do, and doesn't mind since the exterior is technically completely finished, as necessary. Stampy wonders if the window is too low, attempting to fix it, and then decides to build the recreational room at the back of the submarine.
Firstly, Stampy crafts some beds for living quarters, adding two of them, and uses oak wood stairs for chairs with a fence and stone pressure plate for a table to have multiple melon moments while underwater. Setting up his table and chairs, Stampy then crafts a painting to add to the decorative element, trying to add it by the table only for the pressure plate to block it, which he decides to instead substitute the idea of by using the beds to position them instead, using one-block sized paintings. Hearing Spring growl due to the repeated accidental attacking of his other helpers, Stampy then crafts an iron door and two stone pressure plates to modernise the recreational room, and then deems his the two divided rooms, additionally that he has to still add the control panel at the front, deciding to add it between or in the next episode.
Due to the game turning to day, Stampy decides to then leave the submarine as he additionally says goodbye to L for Leeeee x in accordance with a sign written by him copying Stampy's manner of saying "bye", deciding to look at it from the full exterior, considering it to look like a submarine. As a final addition, Stampy also decides to craft a set of redstone lamps to use as light. On his way to the crafting table to do, Stampy sees Spring having stood up to attention upon the command attack, telling LongShotBTG off for neglecting Spring despite Stampy's orders. Crafting the redstone lamps, in addition to levers, Stampy then returns back inside to add the restone lamps in the top front corners with a lever in-between them to serve as a light switch, deciding it as the final temporary design. Stampy then deems that he has run out of time for the episode, intending to finish the submarine in the next episode, sailing around underwater upon completion. Stampy then thanks his helpers for joining him, ending the episode with the line "Uh, also a very big thank you to you for watching, and I will see you all later. Byeeeee!" as he proceeds to them jump off of the plank of the SS Stumpy.
