This short features Captain Olimar, and red, yellow, and blue Pikmin, inside an unknown room.


This short shows [[Captain Olimar]] blending and drinking what appears to be a vivisected [[red Pikmin]]. After some other Pikmin discover this, they back away in shock, as the knife-wielding Olimar approaches them. In doing so, they trip onto a pile of [[Pikpik carrot]]s, the aliment that Olimar was truly consuming.
