Secret of the Slashed Painting: Epilogue

Walnut Cookie: Is everyone here? Good. Listen up, everyone! Walnut Cookie: This case has been cracked wide open! Walnut Cookie: This is what happened!

Gumball Cookie: Heard there was gonna be a fun exhibition at this museum… But NOPE! This place is BOOORING! Gumball Cookie: Where’s the color? The vibrancy? The REAL art?! I’ll show’em what a real masterpiece looks like! Herb Cookie: Gumball Cookie, be careful! Please don’t hurt the plants… Gumball Cookie: PSH! Don’t worry! My canvas… is the museum itself! BWAHAHA! Herb Cookie: That’s good to hear, have fun! I’m going to go and look at the unique collection of plants over there.

Gumball Cookie: *Cracks knuckles* NOW THEN! Time for me to show this boring museum what a real masterpiece is! Gumball Cookie: But this wall is bigger than I thought. I’m gonna need more paint! Hmmm… AH-HA! A warehouse! Maybe I’ll find some in there! Gumball Cookie: Huh? What’s all this? There’s nothing but gardening tools in here! Mustard Cookie: Gumball Cookie? What’re you doing in here? Gumball Cookie: ACK!? Oh! Wait… Mustard Cookie? I should be asking you that same question. I thought you hated museums like this! Mustard Cookie: Grams asked me to do something. And this is a good shortcut. Mustard Cookie: You hate boring places like this museum. Why are YOU here, huh? Gumball Cookie: Hmm… OK! I’ll tell ya, since you’re probably one of the very few who can even begin to fathom my artistic vision! Gumball Cookie: This place is so dull, so average, so plain! I’m gracing it with my own art: a flash of color, new life breathed into it with my gumballs! Mustard Cookie: You know what… You’re right. If all the “art” is in the building, then there’s no way every Cookie can enjoy them to the fullest. Mustard Cookie: I’m going to join you. I think this museum can use some thought-provoking graffiti! Gumball Cookie: Ya really are a true artist, aren’t ya, Mustard Cookie! True art is born from freedom! Gumball Cookie: Yeah, it- Hey, what’s that big clothing thing over there? Is something under it? Gumball Cookie: Is that a painting? Why’s it here of all places? Mustard Cookie: Is this that fancy painting that Cheesecake Cookie’s been talking about so much? ???: Didn’t know you two would recognize my butter painting technique. Mustard Cookie: Butter Pretzel Cookie? This is yours, isn’t it? What’s it doing in this warehouse? Gumball Cookie: Paintings don’t usually belong in warehouses? Butter Pretzel Cookie: How perceptive. This painting is the centerpiece of the Hors d’Oeuvre Museum’s exhibition. Gumball Cookie: So… why’s it here? Butter Pretzel Cookie: Because it’s unfinished! There are parts that need some touching up. A masterpiece isn’t created in a single day! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Do you know how long I’ve toiled and struggled on this painting? Gumball Cookie: Ya know what you need to do? Go with the flow! Do what you* heart tells ya! Don’t overthink it, just do it!

Butter Pretzel Cookie: *TSK* That’s easier said than done! My technique isn’t as whimsical as spraying graffiti and blowing up paint! Gumball Cookie: WHAT?! My vision of art isn’t some- Mustard Cookie: Wait… Butter Pretzel Cookie. Were you ever happy while painting this thing? Butter Pretzel Cookie: …! Mustard Cookie: It’s like you can only talk about how hard it was… Mustard Cookie: Art is about expressing thoughts and feelings. Even if it’s not a masterpiece, you should still feel happy and proud of what you created? Butter Pretzel Cookie: That’s extremely naive… I must paint something extraordinary, every time! I have to, there’s no other way! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Unveiling an unfinished painting like… this wreck in front of me… This isn’t art! ARGH! Gumball Cookie: Hey, whoa there, easy! You’re really gonna ruin your work like that?! Butter Pretzel Cookie: It’s all over anyway… This exhibition, this painting, fruitless. All of it. Gumball Cookie: You can still paint without having to hold an exhibition you know. If you worked that hard on it, why’d you make a mess of it just now?

Butter Pretzel Cookie: *Sigh* I was an obscure nobody, painting with butter on the streets… An artist who rationed meals just to buy the best butter… Butter Pretzel Cookie: I remember being happy when I* my own technique for using butter. But even then, no one cared about me or my paintings.

Butter Pretzel Cookie: But when Cheesecake Cookie bought my painting… For the very first time, I thought that I was finally recognized! Butter Pretzel Cookie: This unveiling at the museum is about proving to the world that my reputation isn’t some random fluke!

Butter Pretzel Cookie: But everyone here… They were all so excited, anticipating a grand masterpiece. I tried very hard but I just couldn’t paint anything better. Butter Pretzel Cookie: I’m a sham. I thought they’d be disappointed. Then an idea dawned on me. No one will be disappointed if they can’t see my painting. Gumball Cookie: Pressure! Anticipation! Heavy stuff to deal with…! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Huh? You mean that you… Understand my predicament? Gumball Cookie: Well, yeah! Creating something from nothing is an emotional journey, understood by all artists! Butter Pretzel Cookie: So there are like… Moments when you feel like this too? Mustard Cookie: Don’t put us in the same boat! But, yeah… I spend hours and hours thinking about what to do next. Gumball Cookie: My style of art is very different from yours, no doubt about it. But let’s face it… We all want to create art some way, right? Butter Pretzel Cookie: …You’re right. I-I’ve forgotten my roots. That satisfying rush of completing my first butter painting! Butter Pretzel Cookie: But tomorrow’s the unveiling ceremony… What point is there in painting something for my own happiness right now? Gumball Cookie: Snap out of it! You’re an artist! You’re not always painting for a single exhibition! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Yes, however… I’m not confident enough to continue down the path of being a painter… Mustard Cookie: Don’t be too hard on yourself. Inspiration isn’t something you can just squeeze out of a tube. Gumball Cookie: Hey, I’ve got an idea! Hear me out. What if we create something together? Gumball Cookie: New things, new ideas, new experiences! That’s what helps with inspiration, ain’t it? Ya might have fun with my vision of REAL ART! Mustard Cookie: Here, I’ll lend you a can of my spray paint. Push down on the button here and voila! Gumball Cookie: I don’t lend my cannon to just anyone, buuut… You’re an artist in your own right! SO here! I think you’ve got what it takes to handle it! Butter Pretzel Cookie: So many colors! It’s so dynamic! I’ve never used this many colors and shades before! Butter Pretzel Cookie: I never thought that I would enjoy such, such… FREEDOM! Gumball Cookie: Yeah, yeah, yeah! It’s liberating, ain’t it? Now create something to your heart’s content! Butter Pretzel Cookie: This feeling… This emotion… Yes, I remember. Gumball Cookie: That was fun! So much fun! Mustard Cookie: Hey, Butter Pretzel Cookie? What should we do with this painting? Butter Pretzel Cookie: It’s just… EURGH! I feel so frustrated just looking at it. I want to tear it apart… Mustard Cookie: Welp, that’s definitely a way to deal with it. Need a hand? Gumball Cookie: That might be just what the doctor orders! Forget about this and start with a clean slate. You might come up with a new idea too! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Thank you… Well then, shall we?

Butter Pretzel Cookie: Well… I guess that’s that. Tearing that painting apart was so… liberating! But what do I do now? Butter Pretzel Cookie: I still can’t think of something new to paint. And I need to finish it before sunrise… ???: Well, well, well! There were rumors of a grand masterpiece getting ready for display, but alas, am I too late to the party? ♪ Butter Pretzel Cookie: You?! You’re that famous thief, Roguefort Cookie! Are you here to steal my painting? Roguefort Cookie: That’s an upsetting way to greet someone, no? I am but a simple visitor tonight. I consider this museum a trove of jewels worth admiring. Butter Pretzel Cookie: What…? Oh, never mind. Anyway, nothing for you steal here.* As you can see, it’s ruined beyond all measure.

Roguefort Cookie: I am in no rush! ♪ After all, beautiful works of art require time and patience. Roguefort Cookie: I look forward to our next meeting! ♪ Butter Pretzel Cookie: A bit bold for a burglar… Butter Pretzel Cookie: Oh! OH! I’ll tell everyone the painting was stolen! That way, I won’t have to show it to anyone.

Walnut Cookie: These were the turn of events on that fateful night! Walnut Cookie: There’s nothing that logic and deduction can’t solve! Almond Cookie: Hmm… Curator Emmental Cheese: Butter Pretzel Cookie… You fabricated this crime…? Butter Pretzel Cookie: Curator Emmental Cheese… Everyone… I am deeply sorry. Butter Pretzel Cookie: I-I-I didn’t think my actions would cause such a giant commotion… I should have just been honest and told you everything from the start. Butter Pretzel Cookie: I understand if the museum wants to cancel the exhibition and ban me from holding one ever again… Curator Emmental Cheese: The pressure of creation! The struggle against obscurity! Your initiative to step into the world of art And… and…! Curator Emmental Cheese: All those emotions, curdled together to mold a breathtaking masterpiece! What a wondrous tale! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Eh? You aren’t angry? Birthday Cake Cookie: I will admit, it was initially shocking. However, you had your reasons! I wholeheartedly understand. Birthday Cake Cookie: I know what it’s like to be unsatisfied with your work… The stress and pressure of it all, wanting it to be perfect. Birthday Cake Cookie: But I learned, the thing about parties is that they aren’t perfect on their own. It’s the Cookies who enjoy it that makes it perfect! Whipped Cream Cookie: Whenever you’re struggling with something, you can talk to us. We’re here for you! We can think over it together. Carol Cookie: We’re all the same in the world of creativity. I look forward to what you will show the world in the future! Chili Pepper Cookie: Paint something small next time. It’ll be easier to carry around! Almond Cookie: Chili Pepper Cookie. Are you openly admitting your intention to steal a painting in the future? Chili Pepper Cookie: Eep! I- erm… Did I say that out loud? Herb Cookie: Butter Pretzel Cookie! Come visit my garden one day. Talking to the plants might help you relax! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Thank you, everyone. Oh, and er… I won’t take it personally if you’ve decided to stop sponsoring me. Cheesecake Cookie: What do you mean? Hehe, this sort of thing won’t stop me from sponsoring you! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Cheesecake Cookie…! Cheesecake Cookie: When times are tough, it’s important to take a step back and relax! Besides, I don’t want my friend and sponsored artist to be stressed! Cheesecake Cookie: And planning new parties are* always an option!

Butter Pretzel Cookie: Thank you, all of you… I… I’ve come up with an idea for my next painting just now! Strawberry Cookie: Oh wow…! Really? Curator Emmental Cheese: The Hors d’Oeuvre Museum keenly awaits your next desire to hold an exhibition! Our doors will always be open for you! Butter Pretzel Cookie: I promise to keep at it before this exhibition is over! I hope everyone will come see it once it’s done! Butter Pretzel Cookie: Walnut Cookie. Almond Cookie. Will you come too? Walnut Cookie: Absolutely! In the meantime, I’ll read some books about art!

Almond Cookie: Congratulations, Walnut Cookie. Case closed, and a job well done. Walnut Cookie: I’m glad I was able to help! And… I’ll keep trying to be a better detective. A detective who will never give up! Almond Cookie: You are already a great one. Thank you for cooperating with the investigation, Detective Walnut Cookie. Walnut Cookie: And thank you for believing in me, Detective Almond Cookie!

Birthday Cake Cookie: Lemon Cookie? How goes the prep for the concert? Lemon Cookie: Not bad. We’re on schedule. Birthday Cake Cookie: Excellent! This will indeed be the perfect party! Mint Choco Cookie: I heard that Butter Pretzel Cookie’s latest painting is quite something. Whipped Cream Cookie: I just know I will be inspired to dance the moment I lay eyes on it! Almond Cookie: Butter Pretzel Cookie’s face looks so… real. Very… realistic. *Sigh* I will never fully understand art. Walnut Cookie: Me too… I read a book about art before coming but… Truffle Cookie: You cannot learn everything about art from books, my dear.

Truffle Cookie: That face, that smile. Doesn’t the word “comfort” come to mind? Truffle Cookie: It’s simple really. What do you feel when looking at it? Almond Cookie: Hmm… The smile really does reflect a sense of comfort and relaxation. Walnut Cookie: And, even though this is the first time seeing it, it’s somehow very familiar! Walnut Cookie: Oh! Hello, Butter Pretzel Cookie! Excellent work on the new painting. Almond Cookie: A very intriguing piece of art. It’s very realistic, almost as if it’s ready to jump out of the canvas. Butter Pretzel Cookie: You’re both here! Thank you! Ever since then, I’ve learned how to work at my own pace, quite comfortably too! Butter Pretzel Cookie: And I’ll admit, out of all my recent paintings, this is my* probably my favorite!

Walnut Cookie: Hey! That smile! It’s just like the one in the painting! Cheesecake Cookie: I truly adore your paintings, Butter Pretzel Cookie! Are you already considering your next- Huuh? Cheesecake Cookie: There’s something on the floor here… An envelope? An invitation? Walnut Cookie: That insignia?! Walnut Cookie: It’s Roguefort Cookie’s calling card! Let me take a closer look! Walnut Cookie: “A true marvel! Calculating logic has paved the way for imaginative inspiration on a grand jewel of art.” Walnut Cookie: “Hearken to me, dear Cookies. Upon starlight’s glow I will make my appearance to embrace the latest jewel to grace our eyes.” Almond Cookie: This is Detective Almond Cookie requesting back-up at the Hors d’Ouevre* Museum! Roguefort Cookie will attempt a theft tonight!
