[[WMG: The 290 Counter is an altimeter {{InUniverse}}]]
Since Ballos is the one causing the Floating Island to [[ColonyDrop bomb out of the sky]], anyone wanting to defeat him must do so before the Island impacts. We see it drop noticeably, then level off when we get the best ending, meaning it started and stopped. Either Ballos saw the pair of robotic challengers and momentarily halted the descent to give them time to kill him, he couldn't drag down the Island and fight at the same time, or the two simply managed to kill him ''that fast''.
Since we don't know the Island's original altitude nor its rate of descent (though the latter seems quite rapid in the endings), and because a time limit would make Sacred Grounds [[NintendoHard even]] ''[[NintendoHard more]]'' [[NintendoHard of a goddamn pain in the ass]], Pixel thought it best to invoke GameplayAndStorySegregation and give the player a timer, where InUniverse Quote would have an altitude readout.

[[WMG: Quote's voicebox is damaged, and that's why he never says anything.]]
We know Quote is a HeroicMime, even in Curly's Story, where he only speaks after eating the Ma Pignon. We know Quote and Curly were probably involved in the conflict over the Demon Crown 10 years ago. What if Quote never speaks because he was damaged in whatever final battle took place at the end of the conflict?
My theory is: 10 years ago, somebody from the surface finds the Demon Crown and tries to use it to rule the world or whatever. Quote and Curly were sent to stop him and managed to pull it off, killing the potential user of the Demon Crown (the Doctor finds the crown sitting on a skull in the throne room; that skull had to come from somebody). However, both Quote and Curly were badly damaged in the fight, Quote so badly so that it permanently impaired his ability to speak. This damage also left them with amnesia, which is why they don't remember anything. It also explains why Quote seems to remember less than Curly (though it's kinda hard to tell, since he never says anything); he took more damage, so he lost more of his memory. Quote even wears a scarf, something that could hide a gaping hole/weird robotic scarring on his neck.

[[WMG: What would have happened if Balrog hadn't crushed Malco?]]
If player has collected the Charcoal:
* Grasstown: Quote defeats Malco in a CurbStompBattle. After Quote leaves, Balrog comes to repair Malco. Malco tells Balrog how to make an explosive. Balrog heads west and gets a Jellyfish Juice. He does not find any Charcoal in Santa's fireplace. Meanwhile, Quote is exploring the eastern half of the area and arrives at a door labeled "Gum." He reports back to Kazuma, wondering if there's a key to the room in there. Kazuma gives him the Gum Key. Quote goes back to the door and unlocks it. Balrog has just tried and failed to open the locked door. When Quote gets the Gum Base, Balrog rushes in and Misery does not bother transforming him because Quote has not defeated his second form yet. But, Balrog does do some pre-battle blather about a bomb. Quote defeats Balrog with some effort and asks Malco about a bomb. Malco reluctantly makes Quote the bomb and Quote blows open the door. The game proceeds mostly as normal henceforth.
If player has not collected the Charcoal:
* Grasstown: Quote defeats Malco in a CurbStompBattle. After Quote leaves, Balrog comes to repair Malco. Malco tells Balrog how to make an explosive. Balrog heads west and gets a Jellyfish Juice. He bursts into Santa's house and gets the Charcoal. Then he gets another Jellyfish Juice. Meanwhile, Quote has gotten the Gum Key from Kazuma. As Quote goes to get a missile expansion, Balrog bursts in and steals the Gum Key. Balrog goes over to the Gum door and gets the Gum Base. Balrog goes to Malco, has him make the explosive, and blows open the door. He takes Kazuma to the Doctor. Quote arrives just too late and Professor Booster comes and is horrified that Kazuma has been kidnapped.

[[WMG: [[spoiler: Jenka built the Iron Bond, Prefab House, Sacred Grounds, the Passages, and the Heavy Press as an emergency route to Ballos, knowing that the Core would be destroyed where it was if she lost the red flower storehouse key to the fourth holder of the Demon Crown.]]
[[spoiler: Jenka is a witch. She may have some powers of clairvoyance. The Doctor was the fourth holder of the Demon Crown, and since the game was made in Japan, Four is Death can come into play. Jenka sensed that losing the key would lead to the Core's destruction on top of the island. Knowing Ballos's great power, she started by making part of the Prefab House weaker than the rest so Ballos would accidentally cause it to cave in. The Sacred Grounds were made right underneath, and she made it hard to traverse so only the one who beat the Core could make it. The Heavy Press was created as a final test and put right above the floors in the first Passage that guards Ballos. Jenka then created the Iron Bond and, upon learning that a robot's house was where one of her dogs liked to go, gave the Iron Bond to the dog, who in turn gave it to Curly, who then gave it to Quote. Jenka seems to have a connection to Booster, as indicated by the credits. She went into the Labyrinth after Quote ignored him, healed Booster with a spare Life Pot, then magically completed the Booster 2.0. She gave the Prefab House a magic lock that automatically activated when the Core was destroyed and could be deactivated with the Booster 2.0 and Iron Bond, which she put magic key-like properties into. Quote unwittingly broke the spell when he went to the Balcony, and Curly entered immediately after the Core was destroyed. Quote then entered, traversed the Sacred Grounds, defeated the Heavy Press, then finally killed Ballos.

I've seen a lot of refutations of this, and none hold up. King looks sufficiently different from normal Mimigas post-dosing that it's plausible Toroko would think he's someone else; if Quote can put on a goddamn rabbit mask and fool everyone, surely King's ''entire body'' being 'roided up would also do the trick. Jack may or may not be in on it, but either way it doesn't affect much.

We know that way back when, Arthur fought off the Red Demon and was hailed as a hero. Then he got his ass kicked by one of the Doctor's goons.

We know that way back when, Arthur fought off the Red Demon and was hailed as a hero. Then he got his ass kicked by one of the Doctor's goons. We can also infer that Arthur, being a Mimiga, was only able to fight off the demon by dosing himself with flowers -- but the flowers only make Mimigas tough, not immortal. (Quote certainly destroys them easily enough.) So after getting his ass kicked, Arthur is now faced with the reputation of a true hero but the knowledge that he'll never be able to live up to that reputation again. What's better: live on and face humilation, or "die" while you're a hero? And surely this Mimiga village is lacking... a leader?

This explains why King's eyes are so weird (residual flower effects), why Arthur is the only Mimiga in the village to get his own fancy house (with red flowers in it...), why he's so pissed at Toroko (who'd essentially be squatting there) and demands his key back, why he's so suddenly protective of a Mimiga that by all prior indications he absolutely despised, and why he goes down so quickly.

* They could have been built with mixing with a human population in mind. They are scout robots after all, what if thye needed to scout out an urban environment before a battle? This would explain why everyone mistook them for humans and their "other" functions as well as the lack of built in weapon or defensive systems.

Assuming that they were designed with those capabilities (which is implied considering what can happen with Chaco), it would certainly explain why her panties are there, wouldn't it? The way I see it, they wanted to find a secret, private place, so they went behind the wall where nobody could find them. I leave the rest to your imaginations. Though, to play devil's advocate, it could've potentially been anyone or possibly even the result of a practical joke. (Panty theft?) But it would make sense if they figured that they were going to fight a powerful opponent, [[YouDontWantToDieAVirginDoYou and had doubts about whether they were going to survive, let alone win]]...

[[WMG: The Red Flowers are the physical manifestation of Ballos's rage.]]
They overcome one's sense and reason, bringing up nothing but endless fury and madness, and destructive power that lashes out at anything around him or her - just like what happened with Ballos. During his many years of imprisonment and rage, some of his power of destruction still seeped through the Core's suppression, made into being as the Red Flowers.
