"GAAAAAHHHH! Get me out of this cage! I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW I GOT HERE!!"
"Hey! Boomshockalocka! We're here to rescue you!"
You and Midoro come to discover that the so-called 'CageMeister MeisterBurger 5000' is in no better shape than the rest of the Mallartauds. Having overestimated its dancing skills and hyperactive temper (both of which taught to it by the Miser himself), the rascal of a cage freestyled its way into a trivial predicament that not even its toned, manly legs could escape from.
