While Princess Donut remains inside the strange blob caused by the Enhanced Pet Biscuit, Carl reviews the rest of his loot. Carl equips fingerless gloves, compares a toad cudgel with a fireplace poker, and inspects the Goblin Pass that the system has branded onto Carl like a tattoo. The pass will prevent automatic goblin hostility and allow passage through goblin territory, but it also makes natural goblin enemies deal extra damage to Carl.

Carl examines a Nightgaunt cloak and an enchanted trollskin shirt. Mordecai explains that the cloak is valuable, but the trollskin shirt is far better because it grants powerful regeneration and protects Carl from several melee debuffs. Carl puts on the shirt, then adds the cloak, raising Carl's constitution and earning achievements and a Bronze Adventurer Box containing another torch and two healing potions.

Carl then studies an enchanted toe ring that raises strength and improves Powerful Strike. Mordecai explains that Carl's unarmed attacks may already be stronger than Carl's weapons because of Carl's related skills, and suggests that a monk class might suit Carl. Carl puts on the uncomfortable ring, gains a major strength boost, and earns another sarcastic achievement.

After gearing up, Carl explores the skills menu and searches for Frogger, remembering years spent playing an arcade machine while locked in the basement as a child. The system confirms Carl has a hidden Frogger skill, making Carl reflect on how the dungeon is made from the remnants of human civilization. The scene shifts when a new pompous female voice criticizes Carl's outfit and lack of pants; Carl looks around and realizes the speaker is Princess Donut.
