Synopsis

Marija, Buro, and Rin are skating at the Roller Disco, as Buro nervously attempts to practice skating, serving as a tutorial for her new swung heartbeat. Rin asks if they can stop to get some food, before Marija answers that the snack bar is closed. Buro then reveals that she stole the donut that Richard Hugh was carrying, to Marija's surprise. The two of them ask Buro if she can share the donut, to which Buro obliges, before abruptly skating away and telling them to chase her if they want to have a piece of the donut to eat. The two then chase after Buro, with the Cockatiel, Owl, and Samurai appearing, also participating in the chase for the donut. The player treats all six of them as they skate through the Roller Disco, with Buro teasing her two friends in the middle of the level, before being surprised by the Samurai's appearance, being carried by a bird above her. The level continues on, with a brief cutaway to Edega watching the six of them from a monitor. As the level ends, the outcome of the chase is dependent on the player's letter rank. Given that the player cannot progress the story without achieving a B-rank or higher, it can be assumed that only the B-rank, A-rank, and S-rank outcomes actually take place.

The B-rank outcome involves Buro refusing to share the donut between her two friends, before promptly letting the Samurai eat the rest of it.

The A-rank outcome involves Buro stating that the donut is "great" and hesitating before finally sharing the donut with Marija and Rin.

Finally, the S-rank outcome involves Buro stating the donut is delicious, once again hesitating before finally deciding to share the donut between her two friends; however, a bird swoops in and steals the donut at the last minute, leaving Buro as the only person who got to taste it.

After the level, the three girls speak to Ian and Paige for the final time, as he urges them to take better care of their health and getting sleep. Rin initially refuses, before Marija insists on listening to Ian, causing Rin to reconsider. Marija then compliments Ian and Paige, stating that they are "Middlesea's greatest attraction," before Buro and Rin interrupt to state that they think otherwise. Rin then declares that the three of them will "stay up all night" at the hospital. Ian tries to insist that they get some sleep, to no avail, as the collab story ends.

Transcript

  Buro, you don't have to skate so slowly! There's plenty of space!
  Sorry...I've just never done something like this before.
  It's not so bad! Just get a running start and the skates will do the rest.
  But!! Trying new things is scary! It always makes my heart race!
  Your...heart?
  Welp, here we go again.
If half the beats are missed:
  Hey, everyone's gotta start somewhere!
If half or more of the beats are hit:
  You're getting the hang of this!
  Should we pick up the pace and skate for real now?
  Yeah, let's rumble!
  Wait, can we pause and get something to eat first? I could use a snack.
  Snack bar was closed. Trust me, I checked.
  Sucks to be you! I stole my donut back from that old guy while he was talking on the phone!
  BURO!
  How did you even steal that donut back? The guy didn't eat it yet?
  I guess not! And he brought it with him here! Look, he's over there, standing in the corner.
  Wow...weird coincidence.
  Do you...want to share it?
  NO! Finders, keepers!
  I helped you chase that limo down...don't I get a bite?
  Fine, fine, we can split it.

[Buro skates off-camera]

  BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO CATCH ME FIRST!

[Marija skates off-camera]

  Come back here!
  ...She got the hang of this pretty quickly.

[Rin skates off-camera]

[Camera pans to Owl, Cockatiel, and Samurai]

  ...
  Donut.
[Level start]
  This donut is mine! I stole it from that suit guy, fair and square!
  Wait for me!!! I just want a little bite!

[Level midpoint]

  What's wrong? Too hungry to skate any faster?!
  Huh...? Who's that behind me?
Rank screen, if S-rank was achieved:
  Oh my gosh...it's delicious...
  Ugh, no need to brag...can we at least have some?
  I don't think I can share this, it's too perfect...
  Buro! After all you put us through...
  Okay, fine, you can have a little bit. Here...
  WAIT, NOO!
  THE BIRD SWOOPED IN AND STOLE THE REST?!
  It was delicious...how could this happen?
Rank screen, if A-rank was achieved:
  Well...is it good?
  It's great!
  Can we have some?
  Let me think...
  ...okay, fine! But just a little!
  Thank you!
  Phew...after all that skating...I don't know if I have the appetite anymore...
  C'mon, have some!
  Okay, okay!
Rank screen, if B-rank was achieved:
  Well, how does it taste?
  It tastes pretty good!
  Can we have some?
  No!
  Donut.
  It looks delicious.
  So hungry...
  Aww...here, you can have the rest!
  You're giving it to him?!
Rank screen, if C-rank was achieved:
  Well, how is it? Was it worth making us skate around trying to stop you?
  It's okay.
  Only "okay"?!
  Yeah, it's just okay. Maybe next time I'll get jelly-filled.
  We chased a car to try to get this donut!!!
Rank screen, if D-rank was achieved:
  To be honest...this doesn't taste very good.
  After all of that?!
  I was hoping for it to be-
  Hey!!! A bird just stole my donut!!!
  I thought you said it wasn't good, why do you care that the bird took it?
  It still belongs to me...
Rank screen, if F-rank was achieved:
  NOOO! I accidentally dropped it!
  You DROPPED it?!
  Wahh...I bet it was delicious, too...
  Let's just go back to the hospital...
  Glad to see you're back here safely.
  Yikes. You three are pretty reckless, y'know. (I'm pretty sure a lot of that was breaking the Disco's safety rules.)
  You should try thinking about your health and finally getting some sleep.
  Hey, it's our vacation! If we wanna go and-
  Rin, he's kind of right.
  ...fine, maybe.
  We suggest taking it easy and just staying inside.
  Maybe you could...watch movies or play a game? It's not really an adventurous vacation, but...
  ...but it's still somethin'!
  Stay the night here, we'll keep an eye on you.
  Plus, there's plenty of other patients here to keep you company.
  Thanks, doc!
  You know, you mentioned our outfits before...
  I thought it would just be fun to dress up. It was kind of a joke, really, but...
  ...meeting you all, maybe we lucked out and found Middlesea's greatest attraction after all!
  The town's famously friendly and dedicated hospital staff!
  Aww!
  Actually, I thought the food was cooler...
  Or maybe the Roller Disco...
  Oh.
  Alright then. New plan. An indoor, hospital-stay vacation. Time to stay up all night!
  What, no, you shouldn't-
  YEAH!!!
  I heard you ventured out to the Roller Disco recently.
  I know what you're wondering...
  ...yes, I've seen that Samurai skate.
  And yes, he's really good.

Lyrics

Don't let the beat stop I wanna, let's go

Let's do the, hey, break it down

Uh-uh, hey, party on

We could want the fastest beat in reality
Let's go
Three, two, one

Baby, how you movin'

Baby, how you movin', so crazy
It's time to awake and shine
(Fastest beat in reality)

Anybody out there yo, yo DJ

Let's do the, hey, break it down
Come on!
Okay!
Yo, yo, DJ

Four, five style, in the water

History

  • All Muse Dash collab levels have the unique property of playing a voice clip from said game, which says "Full combo!" if the player achieves an S-rank. However, at launch, this level in particular lacked that unique feature. A video showing this level lacking the property can be found here, at the 2:20 mark.

Trivia

  • This is the first and only level thus far where the player's letter rank affects the outcome of the level, each letter rank having its own set of dialogue attached to it.
  • A voice clip from Muse Dash can be heard, saying "Full combo!" during the rank screen if the player achieved an S-rank on the level. This applies to all Muse Dash collab levels.
