Warehouse 71
As the dust settles a cough can be heard. It is that of Colonel Critchlow Suchbench, former Glee Master and Head of Security for Pleasure Island’s Adventurer’s Club. After thirteen years in a crate the colonel is glad to stretch his legs err, arms, and more than ready for another adventure! Like a genie fresh out of the bottle, the cantankerous old explorer sets to cracking open the crates around him. Soon the aisles are overflowing with a menagerie of artifacts both small and large from over fifty years of Walt Disney World history. Tattered renderings for something called the “Western River Expedition” are draped over an old jalopy with the name “Mr. Toad” scrawled across the hood, while a weathered sign for River Country leans precariously against an oversized mustard bottle stamped “America on Parade : 1976”.
Realizing he mustn’t be the only being for whom the warehouse has become home, the colonel sets his sights on finding others pricked by time’s spindle. In short order he has uncovered a cast of familiar faces including Timekeeper, Dreamfinder and Cranium Command’s youngest recruit, Buzzy. Awakened from their slumber, they are enlisted to help crack open the remaining crates and free all the relics of the park’s past. Reclaiming his role as Glee Master, the colonel declares they must celebrate their new-found freedom with a party, if for no better reason than it’s been thirteen years since he’s had a drink!
