Wow! What a mysterious find. I wonder how MC comes across this 🤔. I will say, you won't get the scene featuring these cut-ins during Step 2. It's for Step 3! I had the artist work on this while I was still finishing some stuff for S2 and wasn't sure what S2 piece should be done next. Cut-In Artist:
