At the bar, Junebug and Johnny sing [[Too Late to Love You|a song]] as the roof of the bar seemingly disappears to reveal the full moon overhead. After the show, the group talks with [[Harry Esperanza|Harry]] who admits he can't pay, as he was left with nothing but an I.O.U. from the [[Hard Times Distillery]] after he traded his customers' debt for whiskey and the events in ''[[The Entertainment]]''. He suggests they head to the distillery to claim their payment, but that they must take the {{ZeroLink}} to get there. As Junebug and Johnny decide to accompany the trio, Harry gives them directions based on following radio signals, and they set out. The group drives until they see a team of horses standing in the middle of the darkened highway, and immediately appear on the {{Zero}}.

I wish that's just the ... dammit, I was trying to tell you twocould take it back, I canbut it't pay! They cleaned me out. I've got nothing left but a G.D. I.O.U. from the distillerys too late.'']]
The group soon comes across a large chamber dominated by a rock spire, known as the [[Hall of the Mountain King]]. There they find broken, vintage computers in large piles surrounding a tall, burning fire of discarded electronics. They come across an old man named [[Donald]] who is fixated on a grand project – his life's work – named [[XANADU]], involving a computer growing black mold and an artificial intelligence simulation of his life's missed opportunities from long ago. He claims Lula and Joseph helped design XANADU and, while Lula left long ago, there may be a way to use it to find her. However, Donald says a group of people who he calls "the Strangers" repeatedly sabotaged the computer, leaving its text garbled and unable to be read. The group decides to locate the strangers so they may fix XANADU and find Lula.
