“Hello Mods.” ColorfulEnchantingKazoo said. “What is it?” Asked WhiteAlligator reluctantly. “It’s time for you to test out our new LEGO digital experience.” Said ColorfulEnchantingKazoo as he brought out a LEGO Boost hub and a tablet. “Release catwizard. He will be our first victim.”
Some guards came and undid the ropes that held catwizard to his chair.
“Now catwizard, go and program something with the LEGO Boost app.” commanded ColorfulEnchantingKazoo. “Like what?” Asked Catwizard “Try the sound block”
Catwizard dragged a start block and a sound block into the LEGO Boost programming environment, and he hovered his finger over the button to start the program. “Well, what are you waiting for? Start it.” Commanded ColorfulEnchantingKazoo.
Catwizard hesitated, while ColorfulEnchantingKazoo kept prompting him to program.
“Come on, start the program. It’s not going to explode on you or anything…”

Chapter 10: LEGO Life 2, Part 3
The tablet made a fart sound. “Who did that?” Asked Catwizard. “The LEGO Boost program did.” replied ColorfulEnchantingKazoo. “Your plan all along, was to make me test out the fart function of the LEGO boost program?!?!” Catwizard said while all the other mods had disappointing glares. “No, that was just the first part of the experience. See that button there? Push it.” ColorfulEnchantingKazoo says as he points at another button on the tablet.
Catwizard pushes a button labeled “LL”, and it opens LEGO Life. “What did you do with LEGO Life and LEGO Boost?” “We connected it together! Now you can send your programs to other LEGO Life members! Isn’t that great!” ColorfulEnchantingKazoo says with excitement. “Sure, that’s a good thing, I guess. I still don’t get why you’ve taken over The LEGO Group for this.” “Here’s the part I’ve been wanting to show you. Share your program with the rest of the LEGO Life community.”
Catwizard submits his program as a creation on LEGO Life, fills out the text fields for the title and description, and sends it. “There it is, Catwizard. A new creation on LEGO Life. Notice anything different?” ColorfulEnchantingKazoo asks. “I guess it seems faster, but what?” Catwizard replies. “You’re on the right track.”
Catwizard examines the LEGO Life interface, but he noticed something dangerous about his LEGO Boost creation on LEGO Life that made the process so quick. “Wait a second, there’s no moderation. It just went through to the main page, but all LEGO Life creations have to go through moderation.” Catwizard says. “And that is why you are all being retired.” Replied ColorfulEnchantingKazoo. “Because The LEGO Group will no longer need your services as LEGO Life will continue without you and the rest of moderation.”

Chapter 10: LEGO Life 2, Part 4
“What! That’s irresponsible! As a toy company with a target audience of children, we are required by law to have moderation!” WhiteAlligator demands. “Is your target audience actually children? Because I’ll have you know, the reason why The LEGO Group is surviving is because of adults. Today, children are playing with phones and tablets, and physical toys are becoming outdated. The only audience left to play with LEGO bricks is the adults, and they deserve that recognition.”
“And how does getting rid of moderation help you with that?” “Because the adults can actually feel comfortable about joining LEGO Life, and it will actually be good. There will be professional, well-done creations instead of children’s hodge-podge spam, and actual communication between users instead of fake emote comments. This will be a new, better era of LEGO social media, and I guess we could call this… LEGO Life 2. This is what the fans have wanted, an actual LEGO social media platform, not some childish-Instagram-copy-cat.”
“So all you wanted… was representation of AFOLs?” “Pretty much. The LEGO Group has never listened to AFOL feedback since they always cater everything to kids. After I take over LEGO Life, I’ll start employing actual AFOLs to design LEGO sets, and actually make LEGO sets great. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a company to run.”
“Sir, we have footage of a thief in the LEGO Design offices.” A guard spoke towards ColorfulEnchantingKazoo. “Show me.” He asked.
The guard opened a laptop and replayed the security camera feed. It clearly showed everything that Zach had done, including getting into the building, testing the exploding LEGO Boost Hubs, and fighting all the guards.
“I’ve seen this guy before,” ColorfulEnchantingKazoo chuckles. “You recognize him?” “Yes, very much.” “Shall we try to get him.” “Yes, find him, and bring him to me alive.” “Yes, sir. What will you do now?” “I have some business with my fellow mods.” He said in a deep voice as he left his office and went to the conference room with all of the captured mods.
