So,

Austin gets tied up, Henry goes on his little villain rant, Austin does NOT give a fuck, and then Henry folds his ass—BUT!!! Austin survives (very very narrowly, only because Henry didn’t cut his head off… too much blood too much cleaning). Austin is mentally scarred from the attack, and Todd is like “what the hell happened,” but Austin pulls one of these-

-and doesn’t say anything. Mike knows what happened but who’s gonna believe him? Poor Mike.

Even though Austin returned to Nintendo alive, Henry ultimately got what he wanted. Austin’s work quality decreased drastically. So much to the point where Todd was suggesting, “bro u might have to quit and seek help.” But Austin was like “um? No??? I spent my WHOLE life to be here.. Just to stop now? No way!!” even though he wasn’t doing much of anything but that’s beside the point hush. It ended up happening anyway, though, when Henry started stealing Austin’s ideas and claiming them as his own. Mentally scarred, seething, and sick of being overlooked, Austin was going to take his revenge. In the same room that Henry dies in the main story, Henry’s busy getting hammered on the job and messing with the Wii, but then Austin walks in with nothing but his hands and feet, and he starts KICKING HIS ASS!!!

Long story short: Henry breaks the bottle of whatever shitty beer he was drinking, slits Austin’s throat somehow without being able to even see straight, but Austin pushes Henry against the wall where the outlet is, and Henry gets his ass shocked to death. Austin wins! Except he doesn’t, and bleeds out on the floor, dying seconds after. Now we have Core and Eteled. At the same time.
