(The pilot starts off with a landscape scene, depicted in a Nintendo 64-like style. “THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS" logo appears. The camera zooms in towards, and eventually entering, a large tent in the background as the graphics of the scene increase in quality.)

(The scene switches to a dark room with curtains as the back wall, soon lit up and lights move around as Caine twirls and pops out of thin air ,introduces himself, after a small wait.)

Caine:
Welcome to The Amazing Digital Circus! My name is Caine. I’m your ringmaster and I’m here to show you the most jaw-dropping, heart stopping, mind-bending paraphernalia you’ve ever laid your eyes upon! (Caine pulls Bubble from his hat.) Isn’t that right, Bubble?

Bubble:
That’s right, Caine! I can’t wait to see what you’ve got cooking up for today. ( smiles as she or he is talking )

Caine:
Well, let’s not waste any time! Let’s get right into the show! ( moves away from the show curtain, as the curtain starts to unravel )

(Theme song plays as the main cast of characters are revealed.)

Gangle, and Zooble, and Kinger too! �

Ragatha, Jax, and there's Kaufmo, woo-hoo! �

(On-screen:
"Disclaimer: Kaufmo the Clown did not show up today.")

Day after day after- Day after- Day after day we fly �

(The video loops multiple times)

Past the moon and the sun and we don’t know why! �

(A jester character suddenly appears as objects fly through the air.)

???:
W-w-where?

(She walks around, almost getting hit by a flying eyeball. She spots an exit and runs towards it, only for the exit to dissolve and disappear. A hat zooms past. A big flower falls and glitches into the ground GMOD-style, frightening her. She knocks over Jax, causing Kinger, and subsequently Gangle to fall over too, breaking Gangle's comedy mask, while the theme song slows down and stops.)

The Protagonist is Introduced

(The Jester backs down, while the others stand up. Ragatha and Zooble show up, peering at the jester, as she is very confused at the moment)

Jax:
Caine, is this one of your NPCs or is this a new sucker? 'Cause if it's a new character, we're gonna have to redo this whole theme song. (He looks and sounds bothered by the possibility of redoing their theme song)

Zooble:
I'm not doing that again.

(Jax looks at Zooble, and looks dramatic or confused)

Caine:
My my, it appears a new human has entered this realm! (Moving his cane around to point at the jester, before pointing in the air)

(The Jester struggles to take the weird headset off.)

???:
How do I... take this… headset off!? (Is struggling, as her eyes appear to be scribbles at the moment)

Jax:
Just keep grabbing at it. That worked for all of us.

(The Jester attempts to pull the headset off but, not realizing that it doesn't work, pulls at her eyes and mouth instead. When she gives up, her eyes and mouth fly back into position, making her head wobble)

???:
Whats… going on? I-I-I put on some weird headset.. and now I'm...here? (Her eyes widen)

(The Jester looks around in confusion.)

???:
Who are you people? Why can't I take it off? WHERE AM I?

(Ragatha suddenly interrupts the Jester from speaking any further.)

Ragatha:
Let's just try to calm down. Everything's gonna be ok, new stuff. We've all been through this. You just need to get your head to— (Eyes minimize as she got interrupted)

(The Jester interrupts Ragatha.)

???:
WHAT THE %$!# IS GOING ON!?...what— (Looks down at her hand, and her mouth, questioning what has just transpired)

(The swear she said is censored by a cartoonish sound effect, and a black bar covering her mouth temporarily. The Jester gets interrupted again by Caine, explaining that swearing is prohibited in the realm.)

Caine:
Now now now, my dear! We can't have any of that foul language around here. The Amazing Digital Circus is a place to be enjoyed by all ages. You, my friend, stumbled into an incredible world of wonders, where anything can happen!...e-except for swearing. (His eyes look around the place after explaining)

(The first thing the Jester did was to try out every swear word after hearing that information.)

???:
%$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#, %$!#. %$!#. Oh, my god. Well, h-how do I, you know.. leave? (She looks up at Caine)

(Caine pauses in the middle of explaining)

Caine:
Uh-

Ragatha:
W-Well don't freak out about it or anything, but uh, we.. don't exactly—

(Jax interrupts Ragatha, as going in front of the jester)

Jax:
You can't.

???:
What? (Eyes minimize as shes looking at Jax, in worried confusion)

Zooble:
Shut up, Jax. But yeah, he's right. Welcome to your new home, and your new body. (Their claw points down to the jesters feet)

???:
“N-n-new home"? What do you mean? (her eyes dart around)

Ragatha:
Guys, don't be mean.

Jax:
We've been stuck here for years! Old Kinger over there's supposedly been here the longest.

(Kinger peeks out of his pillow fort that he had made.)

Kinger:
Huh, did somebody say something about an insect collection? (his eyes widen in excitment)

Jax:
That's why he's craaazy. (chuckles) Eh.

(The Jester starts panting and the pupils of her eyes turn into scribbles, but she calms down.)

???:
Oh, okay, now I get it! (laughs) This is a dream! And I should just play along until I wake up, right?
