SAUSAGE POWER
-------------

Joe Joe Sausage Head and the Sausage Lady defeat Bungston Big Bucks in a bout
full of sausages, spatulas, and a decisive assist from the Sausage Lady. Joe
Joe declares that the victory is only the beginning and that he will continue
following the WienerCoin trail.


AN UNEASY PROMISE
-----------------

Hank "The Babe" Williams confronts Rabbit Raw over his questionable loyalties.
Rabbit promises to help crack the U.S. Type conspiracy and says he will leave
the spotlight if he fails. Their unexpected alliance leaves open whether
Rabbit is honorable or merely hiding another trick.

Fuzzy Lumpkins and Luscious Locks fail to check in with the Commish and
forfeit their matches. Their unexplained absence adds another mystery to the
case.


THE COORDINATES
---------------

Nick the Rat, PeeWee, and the Tech Kids analyze the VHS recording of the 1985
Drag Disaster. A single hidden frame reveals coordinates leading to a
dilapidated warehouse near the Rusty Pelican -- a location linked to U.S.
Type. It is the investigation's clearest lead so far.


NEXT STOP: THE HEY BARN
-----------------------

The next card sends the league to the Hey Barn. Joe Joe and the Sausage Lady
will face Crypto Crusher and Bungston; Hank will wrestle Rabbit in a test of
their new alliance; Nick will meet the returning Fuzzy; and Luscious will
face a mysterious proxy of the Timekeeper.

The Commish urges the roster to study the coordinates, question allies, and
stay alert: even a small detail may change the game as the search moves from
the videotape to the warehouse.
