Episode 682 - A Thrift Gift
Taped: 4/30/23
Plot:
Silver takes Platinum to a new arcade that just opened in town. After killing a few hours, Silver is taken aback by all the vintage video games the attached store has. He has Platinum look up more stores, and they come across a thrift shop dealing all sorts of late 20th century merchandise. They drive over and take a tour of everything the shop has to offer. After trying on a few outfits, they buy all sorts of clothing and toys. They do the same to about half a dozen other thrift shops and then come home. They try on some of the clothes they wear for Blaze who is impressed with their selections. Platinum also gives Phire a box containing the toys they bought. A week later, Silver shows Blaze a surprise: an old Family Dollar he converted into a thrift shop. He has some inventory and Platinum helped arrange the shelves and the checkouts. Blaze asks how he was able to do it, but she then figures it's better if she doesn't ask. Silver says it should help him rake in some profits despite Blaze saying it really should be about helping families get back on their feet. After another week of preparation, Silver is ready to open the store. Amy and Sonia pull in and check the place out, thinking they might be able to buy baby needs at a cheap price. Blaze points out that Silver has customers, and the two observe Amy and Sonia browsing the store. Cream and Tails come in next, buying school supplies for Miles and Sam. The store becomes so popular that Silver has to hire some employees to keep up with the inventory and modernizing the registers. Business seems thriving until a Karen comes into the store. She argues with Platinum, Blaze, and Silver until she gets kicked out of the store. The setback turns out to be minor, as they only made $20 less for the week. Silver announces that his store is so successful that he plans to expand. He knocks out a wall with a sledgehammer, but this causes thousands of rats to enter the store. All the customers flee in terror, and the store is forced to close the next day. Silver laments the loss of his store, but Blaze points out that he still has everything he bought from the initial splurge. Silver has everyone pick an outfit so they can go to Cracker Barrel for dinner. Platinum wears an ALF T-shirt, promising not to eat any cats. Silver has him make good on his promise for Blaze's sake.
Fun Facts:
Lucy gets her first job working for Silver though it proves to be short-lived since the store gets shut down.
