Waking up in the morning on his old couch at the Ear Bar, The Musician wasn’t sure if the whole episode was real or mere vivid dream. But here ’tis.

Baker Bloch and Hucka Doobie decided that The Musician should go look at the newest collage located in Clown Central. “The Point of It All.” Hucka escorted him there.
“Mish mash of stuff,” The Musician opined. “Like the ravings of Chef/Inspector Petty last night. I had to leave.”
“No. The picture tells a tale. Look. There is your inspector. What is he examining?”
“I don’t know,” said The Musician, following Hucka Doobie’s pointing hand. “A monster?”
“Yes, a crocodile or alligator. Petty wishes to know about monsters. But he must become *relaxed*. Not Petty, but Allen Martin.”
“I don’t want to talk about Allen Martin right now,” The Musician said firmly. “I’ve figured something out. I’m confused.”
“Allen Martin’s heart might give out. He must relax. How does he relax? Wheeler.”
“Yeah, see, that’s what I don’t want to talk about.”
“Okay,” relented Hucka Doobie. “How about up there above the inspector. Chuckles Greentop, no?”
“I don’t know. I saw her face transform into something like that. Then I saw it again in the basement of [delete name]. Now I’m looking at it again. Which I don’t want to.” He looks around. “Where are we?”
“The Point of It All,” Hucka Doobie answers. “Here lies seed information. Sometime between 2013 and present, this room formed; closed off from the rest of the underworld. Yes, like a seed planted. That is OD, of course, off the wall but then back on and then off again. OD is free. OD is *here*.”
“Ooo-kay,” The Musican mutters, tired of the puzzle-speak. “Let’s just move on from that since we’re going to play this game. Alright, I’ll give it a try. Beside that monster OD is the ‘Emerald Tablet.'”
“Very good,” encouraged Hucka Doobie. “And what does it represent? Harrison Head seems to want to say something.”
The Musician straightened his posture, eyes staring ahead instead of darting about. Sikul Himatk.
“We must enter the next sim. Through the blue door. Keys.”
