Highlights
The group of toys hears children outside, and several characters express excitement about being played with. Peapack wonders how many kids are out there, and Kang Mi Na finds their sounds sweet. Tom Holloway, however, sighs and admits the place is nice but emphasizes their need to go home.
Peapack suggests they can have a new life at Sunnyside, making kids happy again. Johnny Calif, Knuckles, No Sang Hun, Thanos, and Kang Mi Na all urge Tom to stay, with Thanos remarking, 'You'll get played with!'
Tom firmly rejects their appeals, stating he and Gilbert have a bond. He reminds them that their job is to be there for Gilbert, whether he wants them in college or in the attic. Tom declares he's going home and invites anyone who wants to join him.
When Tom calls for Drummer, Drummer states their mission with Gilbert is complete and that what's important now is for them to stay together. Tom argues they wouldn't be together without Gilbert and points out Gilbert's name written under their boots. Knuckles suggests Gilbert no longer cares, and Peapack tells Tom to 'wake up' as Gilbert is 'all grown up'.
Tom expresses his disbelief at their selfishness. Peapack is hurt by his words, and Drummer comforts her while Thanos glares at Tom. Tom questions their camaraderie after all they've been through. Drummer offers his hand, but Tom ignores it. Thanos growls, calling him a 'furry air freshener' and noting the tension. Tom denies being tense and continues to leave.
Gladstone begins to follow Tom, but he repeatedly tells her to stay, explaining he doesn't want her left alone in the attic. Gladstone whimpers and is comforted by Drummer and Peapack. Alicia's Mom's voice is heard, prompting Tom to quickly leave. Drummer and the others retreat as Alicia's Mom enters, and Tom closes the door, watched sadly by Drummer and Peapack.
