Though he had been busy at work restocking canned bread on the shelves of the Kelp-shack, Man Ray had listened intently to the announcement through the portal.

"What's this?" He wondered aloud, His white apron in front of his red skin portrayed a happy piece of Kelp and the worlds 'Kelp Shack' underneath. As he turned, the apron swished around his knees with the speed he had turned and brought a hand to his 'chin,' scratching it thoughtfully as his red eyes narrowed in thought. "A chance to redeem my dignity? To once again become..." His hands clenched into fists now, "EVIL INCARNATE ONCE MORE?!"

Dramatically he threw off his apron. "TO THIS, I SAY YAY!"

He stepped partially through the portal, only turning to hold a hand up in goodbye to the staring, fishesque coworkers and customers. "FARE THEE WELL BIKINI BOTTOM! SHALL WE NEVER MEET AGAIN! AAAHAHAHHAHA-"

"Should I just take this off your vacation days?" Came the nasally voice of his boss, standing with her hands on her hips.

Silence.

"...Yes..." Man Ray sighed dejectedly, his red eyes half closed. He stepped all the way through the portal. "HELLO FELLOW DENIZENS OF EEEEVIL!"

Silence again as he stood grinning with his hands on his hips, waiting for someone to gasp and say 'MAN RAY!' as he was so accustomed to back in his hayday.
