It has been months since any souls have been collected. Normally the Devil would not care but since there are "bubbles of failure" threatening to entomb all his possessions (and henchman), what else can Old Scratch do? One painfully exhausting walk upstairs later and Old Scratch is run over by Elder Kettle. Only the porcelain pops thinks he's a stray cat. HilarityEnsues.

* HumiliationConga: Let's count them off. His possessions, including both the {{hellevator}} and his pitchfork, are bubbled 'cause he hasn't collected a single soul in months. He's forced to walk all the way up to the surface. He steps on a pinecone, ouch. Falls off a cliff into thornbushes. He gets his nose chomped by a bunny. And finally gets run over by Elder Kettle. And this is all before he gets treated less like the ultimate evil and more like a house cat.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: In the end, the Devil decides not to get Cuphead, Mugman, or Kettle's soul, instead deciding to get the Telephone's soul in order to retain his belongings.
