Ranboo is put in charge of setting up the carnival games and decorations as the Butcher Army meets to discuss the plan. Today is the day that they're going to capture Dream and execute him for his wrongdoings agains L'manberg. If they can do that, then maybe they have a shot at taking down Technoblade.
Today is also the day that Techno and Tommy decide to raid L'manberg while everyone's distracted. If they could manage it, they're going to hunt and kill Dream.
The festival is going smoothly. The guests are having fun playing the games that Ranboo has set up. But there's something in the air making the Butcher Army uneasy. They reconvene again to go over the plan. It's all ready to go, but they can't do anything just yet because Dream hasn't shown up.
Finally, Dream arrives, but he doesn't take part in the festivities. He runs right past the group and over to where the obsidian walls are. He starts building them up again, much to the surprise of everyone.
Confused, the Butcher Army stop him and ask him what he's doing. Dream says he has something to show everyone.
Dream leads them to the community house, or what's left of it. Someone blew it up. It sits destroyed and flowing water back into the surrounding lake.
Dream says that it was Tommy who blew up the community house. He's impossible to control. First he left exile, and now, Dream doesn't have enough leverage over him to control him and stop him from causing any more damage to the server. If Dream can't control Tommy, then L'manberg has to pay.
Tubbo brings up the point that Tommy isn't part of L'manberg anymore, they shouldn't have to pay for his crimes.
Dream doesn't care. L'manberg will pay for Tommy's crimes unless he has some way of controlling him. Maybe one of his discs, perhaps? The one disc that Dream managed to get ahold of isn't enough, but if Tubbo could hand over his disc...
Tommy and Techno are invisible and witness to the whole thing. Tommy doesn't know what to do. He obviously didn't do it, but the more that Dream talks, the more that the crowd believes Dream's lies. When Dream again asks for Tubbo to hand over the disc, Tommy finally speaks up, stopping Tubbo from handing it over.
Tommy insists that he wasn't the one to blow up the community house, and Techno verbally backs him up.
But that doesn't exactly matter. Tommy left exile. He's working with Technoblade, known enemy to L'manberg. At this point, it doesn't matter if Tommy blew up the community house or not, because he's shown just by those two actions, that he cannot be trusted. He's a loose cannon, and if Dream can somehow wrangle Tommy back into line, then Tubbo's willing to part with the disc.
The argument escalates into a physical fight between Tubbo and Tommy. In the chaos, bystanders start attacking Techno, too.
"Those discs meant more to me than you ever did!" - Tommy to Tubbo, losing his invisiblility a second after
Tommy stops fighting, realizing what he said. It's simply not true, at least, he doesn't want it to be true. He's turned into something that he's not, something that he hates. He wants to rectify it.
Tommy tells Tubbo to hand over his disc to Dream. Dream now has both discs in his possession.
Tommy declares that he's on Tubbo's side now, whatever that means. Dream warns that he'll have to go to war if L'manberg cannot enforce their exile against Tommy. Tubbo acknowledges the risk and confirms that Tommy will no longer be exiled from L'manberg. They are going to war.
On his way out, Dream exposes Ranboo as a traitor to both L'manberg and to Techno, telling everyone that he's playing every side, even working with Dream in the shadows. Ranboo denies everything, but Dream has Ranboo's memory book to prove it. He tosses the book back at Ranboo.
Techno offers Tommy one last chance to come back with him, but Tommy refuses. He doesn't want to blow up L'manberg after all this.
Dream and Techno leave together with the threat that by this time the next day, L'manberg will be so completely devestated and demolished, there will be no chance to build it back up.
Tommy and Tubbo team together and start gathering resources, people, anything and anyone they can find to help pool resources together to fight back against Dream and Techno.
