Ah, my dear, Wicked!
I do miss you.
Those were the days, huh, boss?
You and that wicked witch, all cozy and cuddly.
Holdin' hands, lookin' dreamy-eyed and stuff.
I hated that part!
What I miss is Wicked's spark!
Her feistiness!
Her dark edge of villainy...
Her desire to be number one!
But, boss...you're number one!
How true, how true.
However, what good is it to be the most despised villain
in cyber-history when I have no one with whom
to share my success and tyranny?
You've always got us, boss!
Yes, but it's Wicked I want!
I must find a way to get her back!
I've got it!
If I make everyone in Cyberspace unhappy,
then Wicked will be happy - and she'll come running back
to handsome and charming me!
And what better place to start than Happily Ever Afterville...
I've finally located The Book of Unhappy Endings...it's hidden
here, in the Enchanted Forest...
...inside three boxes concealed in a large rock!
As if that could keep it safe from The Hacker!
The Book contains all the unhappy endings to ruin the
fairy tale of my choosing - or all of them, if I wish.
And of course I do!
My new Hacker Drill can break through anything...
Start drilling!
NOW THE FIRST BOX!
AND THE SECOND BOX!
THERE'S THIRD...BUT BE CAREFUL!
YES!
The Book of Unhappy Endings!
From now on, Happily Ever Afterville will be known
as Miserably Ever Afterville!
Now that's a house!
Thanks for bringing your earth pals, Didge.
Glad we could help, guys.
Yep, brick was definitely the way to go.
I still think straw is prettier.
We don't need pretty, Ziff - we need sturdy!
WHAAAAAAAT?
Whoa!
What just happened?
Listen!
Somebody's crying!
It's the Town Crier!
All is not well!
What happened, Mr. Crier?
Hacker has stolen the Book of Unhappy Endings and released
Unhappiness throughout the land!
What's the Book of Unhappy Endings?
Once upon a time...
The king wished for all the fairy tales to remain
happy forever, so the king's fairy forefather
created a magical book, then spoke the magic words
AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER!
And all the kingdom's unhappy endings
disappeared into the book.
The Book was taken to the Enchanted Forest...
...where it was placed inside three boxes made of Herculanium.
The lid of each box fit perfectly,
creating a powerful seal!
Never again would unhappiness escape
and disturb the peace of Happily-Ever-Afterville.
But now Hacker has stolen the book
and released the Unhappy Endings.
So that's what happened to our house!
What can we do to help, Mr. Crier?
Hacker took the book to the Castle
and declared himself King.
You must recover the book and say the magic words:
"And they all lived happily ever after!"
If you do that, the Unhappy Endings
will be trapped all over again.
Then the book has to go back into the three magic boxes.
And the lids have to fit perfectly,
or the magic seal won't work.
C'mon - We gotta go get that book!
Wait!
We should go see what Hacker did first.
What if he took the boxes?
Take us to the Enchanted Forest!
Please!
I can't.
I must tell the others our tale of woe.
All is not well...
Let me out! I'm the King!
Sorry, there's a new King in town.
And his name is Hacker!
Oh, Hackie...look!
Cinderella won't be going to the ball after all!
What a shame.
Poor girl.
I can't believe you made all these fairy tale folk
miserable...just for li'l ol' me.
If you're happy, I'm happy.
What a terrible, dastardly borg you are!
I know.
Aren't I wonderful?
By the way, if this is going to be our castle together...
perhaps we could make a few...improvements.
What sort of 'improvements' do you have in mind, my dear?
Well, to begin with, I need a new broom closet.
A new broom closet?
Of course!
BUZZ!
DELETE!
I have a job for you!
Here's one of the boxes, but there's no lid.
Looks like Hacker destroyed it when he stole the Book.
No lid here either!
The boxes gotta have lids!
Oh, my!
There's something the Town Crier forgot to tell you.
If the Unhappy Endings aren't back in the Book by sundown,
the spell is broken.
Happily-Ever-Afterville will never by happy again!
How are we gonna make new lids AND get
the Book back by sundown? !
We'll have to split up.
Didge, you and Inez get the book from Hacker!
Matt, you stay with me, and we'll figure out
how to make new lids.
What about me?
What can I do?
Stay here and help us, Ziff!
We'll need this to hold the book.
C'mon, Inez...to the Castle!
This looks about tall enough for a closet door, huh, Deedee?
Yep, looks wide enough, too.
There you go!
Let's hang it!
Easy...easy...okay!
One new broom closet for the Wicked one!
...Wh-oh..
Uh oh, cyber-sharks!
Looks like Hacker brought in some protection!
C'mon, Didge - we gotta hurry!
All right!
Huh?
Whoa!
Whoaaaa!
Oh no!
DIIIDGE!
Hang on, Nezzie!
I am hanging!
And don't call me Nezzie!
I hope this doesn't have an unhappy ending.
HELLLLP!
Grab on, Inez!
Got it!
Phew!
Thanks, Didge.
No problemo!
Let's find a way in.
This is all the Herculanium I could find!
That's great!
Thanks, Ziff.
Looks like enough for the lids.
But...how are we gonna make a lid out of this weird shape?
It's gotta fit the box exactly.
I have an idea.
Lay it on the ground and put the box on top.
See?
Now we can trace around the box and get the exact shape.
Here, use my carpenter's pencil.
Um...I don't mean to be critical, but that doesn't look
like it's going to fit the box.
...You're right.
What happened?
Maybe the box moved when you traced it.
I'll hold it for you this time.
Now we're talkin'!
How are we gonna cut it out?
Wanna try my new laser cutter?
...And you better put on these safety goggles.
One lid down, two to go!
Oh Hackie! Do you have a moment?
For you...the rest of my life.
Well, I've been thinking.
Since I am the queen, wouldn't it be nice
to have my portrait up here.
But, Wickie dear...my portrait's up there.
But, didn't you say if I'm happy you're happy?
Well, yes...I suppose I did.
Having my portrait on the mantle would definitely make me happy.
Fine!
I'll put up your picture!
The big box is totally stuck!
There's no way we can trace the box like we did last time.
Then how are we going to make a lid that fits perfectly?
Everybody, chill!
Look at the box!
It's a rectangle.
So all we have to do is make
a rectangle for the lid, like this.
...See?
That's true...
But we should measure the sides.
We don't have any Herculanium to spare,
so we can't make a mistake.
Here - use my tape measure...
Awesome!
Thanks, Ziff!
Matt, I'll measure - you write down the numbers.
16 cyber-inches up this side!
And this side too!
The opposite sides are equal.
18 cyber-inches across the top...
and the bottom!
Got it!
Let's draw the real deal!
Ruler, anyone?
Ziff, you are amazing!
Go for it, Jax.
16 cyber-inches up the side...
And 18 across!
I'll just finish it off... got it!
Uh, Jax?
Your rectangle is kinda leaning.
Yeah, but why...?
I measured right...and my lines are straight.
Here's the problem.
Your drawing doesn't have square corners.
A rectangle has to have square corners.
What is that thing?
It's called a Carpenter's Square,
cos it's got a square corner.
See?
Hey!
Is that corner square?
Yep.
Square as can be!
That gives me an idea!
May I have that?
Since we know this corner is square -
I'll start the rectangle here.
16 cyber-inches up this side...
And 18 across the bottom.
Ummmm....how do I use this to make the rest of the rectangle?
I saw my brothers do this once.
Put it here to make the square corner.
Just line up the straight side of the carpenter's square
with the straight side of your material.
Got it!
18 cyber-inches across the top.
...And 16 up this side!
And we've got our rectangle!
Home run, team!
Let's cut to fit.
Laser cutter!
A perfect fit!
We're two for two!
That looks sooo much better, don't you think, Hackie?
Anything for my queen.
Well, in that case, there's one more teeny-weeny itsy-bitsy
thing I need from my big strong Hackie-Wackie.
Yes my dear?
You know that flag flying above the castle?
It would be sooo sweet if you were to put my face on it.
You want your face on my flag?
You want me to be happy, don't you?
Hmm, maybe two faces can fit on it.
No, no...two faces would be much too crowded.
You know, maybe we should just forget this whole
"King and Queen" idea.
You'd be so much happier...
by yourself...
alone...without me.
I'll just go pack my things.
Wait!
Don't go!
I'll put your face on the flag...
I'll put it on both sides!
You're so good to me, my King.
Now!
Whoops!
YIIIIKES!
HELLLP!
Oh man!
Didge, you okay?
Sheesh!
That was almost an unhappy ending!
If you think that was an unhappy ending, just wait!
The small box has to be around here somewhere.
Wait, I just remembered!
Digit and Inez took it with them!
How can we make a lid if we don't have the box?
Matt! Are you there?
Inez, is that you?
We need your help!
We could use yours too, Matt!
Okay, but do you guys still have that box?
We need to know how big it is so we can make the lid.
We need the measurements.
Got the box right here!
Hurry!
Hold this, Kingy!
The long sides are 14 cyber-inches!
The short ones are 12!
Got it!
12 by 14 -- thanks!
Now, what do you need from us?
We're stuck in Hacker's dungeon!
What was that?
We just found a way out!
Gotta go!
Climb on up, guys!
The boss isn't gonna be too happy about this!
Thank you soooo much, Hackie-poo!
Think...nothing...of it!
Oh, one last thing.
When we become Masters of Cyberspace,
I think we should rename it...Wickedspace!
WHAAAAT?
I mean...what better way for a king to honor his queen?
First of all, we will not be ruling Cyberspace.
I will be ruling cyberspace.
And if I do rename it, it won't be after YOU!
In that case...I am SO out of here!
No, no, please!
Don't go!
I didn't mean it!
Will it be Wickedspace or not?
Oh come on!
You can't be serious!
I can...and I am!
Fine!
...Got it!
Hurry, it's nearly sundown!
Good luck!
Okay, so we gotta make a lid 12 cyber-inches by 14 cyber-inches.
But look what we have to work with!
It doesn't have one square corner!
No problem!
We can use this!
Catch!
Oh, my-oh-my...am I sorry!
How are we going to make the last lid
without the Carpenter's Square?
I steal the Book of Unhappy Endings
...give her a crown...a painting...
a flag...a new broom closet...
and this is the thanks I get...
YIIIKES!
What are you two duncebuckets doing down there?
And where's the King?
We can explain, boss.
And where's Digit and that earth pest?
STOP!
THIEVES!
It's Hacker!
Faster!
Mother Goose, help!
We need a ride!
Enchanted Forest... and step on it!
Okay, so we don't have a tool to make the last lid...
Maybe we don't need a tool.
Maybe we just need something we know
for sure has a square corner.
Matt!
We do have something -in your hand!
Right!
We can do what we did last time because we know this lid
has straight sides and square corners!
Just trace a square corner and two sides onto this -
then measure it!
You got it, Ziff!
Trace it, Jax!
Okay, there's our first square corner!
Give me the ruler!
It's 12 cyber-inches going up, and 14 cyber-inches across.
Then if I make another square corner at the 12 mark...
And measure 14 cyber-inches across...
All I have to do is draw a straight line
down from the top... ...to the bottom.
And we've got our rectangle!
All right! We did it! Let's cut to fit!
Tah dah!
We did it!
Hey guys! Here's the Book and the box!
That's my book!
I want my Unhappy Endings!
Uh oh!
Careful!
Aaaah!
Hurry, the sun is setting!
Inez, put the book in the box!
Wait!
Don't forget the magic words!
AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER!
Quick!
Put it in!
Now the lid!
It worked!
Now the medium box!
Another perfect fit!
Put the third lid on!
Quick!
Hurray!
Sundown...and all is well!
The King is back in his castle...
...and the Book of Unhappy Endings is hidden where Hacker
will never find it.
Now that's what I call livin' happily ever after!
Hurray!
