Complete story — includes the ending

After Rusty becomes mute and suicidal, Orpheus goes into his mind to understand why, unaware that it is The Monarch controlling his brain from the inside. Orpheus meets Rusty's representations of his obsession with sex and death in the forms of Billy and Pete. They encounter Rusty's lustful id, who forces Billy and Pete to kiss for his amusement so they can pass. They then meet his ego, who is trying to fix a broken puppet of a young Rusty, and Orpheus brings the id's women to do the job. They finally meet the imprisoned super-ego, who helps them escape Rusty's mind. 21 and Dr. Mrs. The Monarch bond while protecting The Monarch's body, eventually kissing, but they are interrupted by The Monarch waking up when he is attacked by Rusty's memories of the dead Hanks and Deans. Post-credits scene: Hank asked the awakened Rusty if he is okay, and he recounts a teenage memory where he was humiliated by Team Venture on his birthday. Hank comments that it "sounds like a nightmare," and Rusty bitterly responds that "what I went through today was 'like a nightmare'. What happened when I was sixteen? That is my life."
