The secret is shared

_Elsa_

As Allen heads on back towards his spaceship he, literally, bumps into Bear Tree. 

“Oh dear, my roots are really starting to show..., “ Bear Tree says. “If you never tasted salt, you'd never fully enjoy the sweetness of this world.“  

Allen tells Bear Tree what Kimmy told him about the new Superstar program. He tells her that they are going to be adding new members to the current 16 Superstars. He wonders how many more they might add. Maybe they will add 4 new members to bring the total to 20. He mentions when it will begin and then tells her that it’s a secret so she can’t tell anyone. Then he continues to head towards the spaceship. 

Just then Batula lands on one of Bear Tree’s branches. 

“I am trying to recover from my Candy Hangover“ he says. “Kimmy be careful partying at the Factory. Wait, you’re not Kimmy!“ 

Bear Tree shares the secret with Batula. She can’t remember what the total number is going to be, so she makes up a number. She tells Batula that they are going to have 25 Superstars in total when the new program starts. She can’t remember the start date, so she tells him that maybe it’s the end of June or maybe the 4th of July weekend. 

Let’s continue to the next part of the story - It’s starting to spread through Soda World
