Wait -- what the fuck? All of that buildup for the legendary Kool-Aid Vault, and they're not even going to show us what's inside it? What manner of torment is that? We were the finest Clydesdales, us readers, unaware of the glaring carrot-on-a-stick being chased. Now we're a bit jaded, so Kool-Aid Man's really gonna have to crank up his sweet charm to keep us onboard as fans.
The biggest tease? As one of the kids exits the Vault, he describes it as having been "A - A - Awe - Some." Not "awesome." "A - A - Awe -Some." Don't get your hopes up, either. They don't show us the Vault's holy innards later.
Ha, check out Kool-Aid Man's feigned detective skills. As Betsy mentions the trail of trampled flowers, he acts as though that was the big tip-off that Scorch had stolen the key. Not the carpet of smoldering, S-stamped footprints, but the trampled flowers. It's even more annoying since he's doing it while wearing tight biker shorts.
