Odd Future Mysteries: The Case of the Christmas Eve Caper



'Twas a Christmas tradition for the Odd Future members, to meet up for gifts and feasting with neighbors. At Mike G’s cottage is where they all met, for kindness and love and mutual respect. Friends and families were there on that cold snowy day, gathering together on the coast of L.A.. And so it would seem that Odd Future can’t meet, without encountering a mystery that they must complete. And today was no different as the mystery was brewing, but could this mystery be our favorite groups undoing?

I'm not doing this. What's the point? I hate writing about Odd Future. I hate their stupid names and their unbearable music. Everyone on the Tort Team hates putting together these dumb mysteries because they take weeks to finish and then just end up being stupid anyway and nobody looks at them. So if you were hoping for an Odd Future Christmas Mystery then I have to ask you this: What is wrong with you? Either:


  1. You like Odd Future and were hoping for a little fictional fun with your favorite pre-teens
  2. You like the terrible writing on this blog and you were hoping for another mess of a post
  3. You hate Odd Future and you were hoping that this post would reinforce your hate.
  4. You're trollin' the net for LOLZ.  
Fine. You do whatever you want to do, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and ask what's the point? What's the point of anything? Why are you online right now? Why do you enjoy Odd Future? Why do you enjoy any music? It's all the same, right? Nothing really innovates. Odd Future just stirs up the same vomit as everyone else. Their music is not different. It's exactly the same amount of shocking as NWA was like two decades ago, but NWA was a lot harder and didn't act like they wanted to be cast in Jackass 4. The music is the exact same (excpet NWA was doing a lot more innovating and not coping the Neptunes). Whatever, it's all corporate nonsense put out there so some rich fat cats can get richer by exploiting your desire to define yourself by what you consume. They want you to like their garbage music and give them all your $$$$$.


That's the real Christmas Mystery here: why do you care about anything? Why are you passionate about music? Because it moves you? Becasue you can "feel it"? Because it speaks to you? It helps you feel like you're not alone? Listen: YOU ARE ALONE. If it weren't for your tiny money stacks these companies wouldn't be pandering to you either. They would leave you to die. But don't fear: you are more than what you listen to. You're more than your bank account. You can innovate. You have it right inside you. Everything you take in, especially the dumb stuff, limits you. Everytime you watch a stupid TV show or spin some insipid song you chip away at your own ability to be free.




So this is solution to the Christmas mystery: leave this blog and never come back. Get off Twitter. Get off facebook. Stop being influenced and trapped. Destroy your TV and radio. Put down the XBOX and the PLAYSTATION and the Wii and whatever else sucks the time and life out of you and do something. DO SOMETHING. Find some real heads who inspire you to do what you want to do and not what you feel like you should do to fit in. STOP BEING FAKE AND STOP FRONTING FOR 2012, JACKASS.

Everything Ever Score 0/10


Ah, here's your problem sir, you've got a bit of MTV here.

Tyler, the Creator = Tyler Hudson

I'm not going out on a limb here or anything but Tyler, the Creator from Odd Future also appeared as Tyler Hudson on Matlock. They look exactly the same, observe:



SEE! Sure the Matlock guy is more leathery and shiny but that's what happens in the boiler room pressure of any court room environment (ask this guy)! Okay, so I know what your saying: "Those two guys don't look alike at all!". Well, that's wrong. WRONG. Does this help?


Still no? Fine, how about this?


STILL NO? Well, trust us - it's the same guy. We've got industry connections and we got THE SCOOP! Swish!


Case Closed! See what I did there? Matlock was a lawyer and he WORKED on cases. He was the best Lawyer and Tyler, from Matlock was his helper or some shit! "But that show was on like thirty years ago." - Hollywood. Good point, but also not a point at all. They use makeup in Hollywood! I bet if you called up Matlock and asked him if they made him wear makeup in the courtroom scenes he would be like "Yep!". So you can't trust your eyes, unless they are telling you that these two guys are the same.

Pop Quiz: Who is this? You'll never know. Swag!

JERU WEEK! OFWGKTA Mysteries: TAOTPJTD

Odd Future Mysteries: The Attack Of The Prophet, Jeru The Damaja


It was the end of summer and the Odd Future crew was preparing to perform a ‘Thank You’ concert for their fans on a beautiful afternoon in a New York City park. Families had gathered with strollers and picnic lunches. Blankets and lawn chairs were spread all around the sprawling green surrounding the stage. Everything was perfect, yet in the midst of the setup Syd the Kyd noticed that Frank Ocean was not acting like himself and she asked him what was wrong.

Frank Ocean looked a little embarrassed, "You ever heard of the Prophet?" he asked.

"No," she replied.
Frank Ocean

But before she could say anything more Tyler, the Creator interrupted, "Ah, it’s an old legend of a defender of hip hop who lives around here..." 

Frank Ocean spoke up, "Yeah, we're playing in East New York. That's where he's from! They call him the Damaja." 

Tyler, the Creator smirked,”Ha! Jeru? You believe that nonsense? Nobody’s seen him since Pac was killed."

"I'm just saying that we should be careful here," Frank Ocean said while he finished adjusting his microphone.

The time came to start the show. Once Odd Future finished their introductions and started playing their world famous song Sandwitches Frank Ocean noticed a lone, unmoving figure standing at the edge if the crowd. Apparently Syd the Kyd had seen him too because when Frank Ocean looked toward her to point him out she was already signaling to him. She looked scared.


The figure stepped out of the shadows and all doubts of the stranger’s identity vanished. The description matched perfectly. It was the prophet: Jeru the Damaja. His military hat, nappy hair and thick beard, his tempered steel mic, and his East New York swag were undeniable. He looked angry.
The Prophet
Tyler, the Creator must have seen him as well because he gave the signal to stop the show. The music stopped, there was silence. 
"Who are you?" Tyler, the Creator shouted across the crowd pointing at the prophet.

Unmoving, the dark figure said nothing. 

“Answer me!” Tyler, the Creator yelled. There was no response. Tyler, the Creator was not one to believe in legends or the supernatural, so he picked up the Microphone and said with a distorted voice, “Well, prophet, we’ve come to your hood, this is your block, and we’ve taken hip hop as our own. What are yooouuu going to do about it?”

The prophet stirred slightly, he must have known that hip hop was now rolling with Odd Future. Tyler, the Creator and Taco jumped off the stage and aggressively made their way through the crowd toward the Prophet, but as they approached he disappeared into a black hole (or a supernova). As Taco called him a coward they saw that he had not disappeared after all, he had created a shadow to hide behind and then dipped and did a back flip, which he landed on the stage. He grabbed Domo Genesis and broke with the swiftness. He was gone.

Domo Genesis
Stunned, the Odd Future team assembled near the stage to work out a plan. Jasper Dolphin appeared especially angry and pointed out that Domo Genesis was in great danger. This same situation had happened before, a long time ago, and Jeru stopped at nothing to retrieve hip hop from Puff Daddy and Suge Knight. The scary thing was that those two industry heavyweights didn't even put up a fight against Jeru, they just handed hip hop back over as soon as Jeru showed up. Odd Future would be different. Odd Future doesn't play or back down. Jeru was in for a fight.

Jasper Dolphin wondered aloud where the Prophet might have taken Domo Genesis. Left Brain thought he knew the answer as he had heard of Jeru’s adventures as a small child. “I suspect that he will be at a place called D&D", a quick check online confirmed that D&D Studios, in downtown Manhattan, was now called the HeadQCourterz and might be some kind of lair or refuge for hip hop traditionalists.

“Let’s Roll” yelled Left Brain, “It’s time to settle this once and for all.”

And they were off to Manhattan.

As the team approached Jeru's evil HeadQCourterz Frank Ocean stopped them. "Listen guys," he said nervously, "Jeru is very powerful...they say he was born in an inferno. He's super scientifical and he can alter his physical chemistry. Yo, he's got so many bodies on his microphone, they say that it's haunted. If we face him and he grabs his mic, the whole place will catch fire."

Tyler, the Creator looked doubtful, he was frustrated that some of his own crew had bought into the lies of the traditionalists. "All superstition," he said, "If we actually stand up to Jeru, he'll crumble. He's just a rusty old man using outdated tricks that don't matter anymore."

"All Superstition"

With that the team pushed ahead toward Jeru's evil HeadQCourterz. Jeru was out in the street in front of the building holding Domo Genesis with some sort of blade (it looked like a sharpened steel bookmark).

Jeru spoke, "Where is hip hop?"

"Ha ha ha ha ha!," Tyler, the Creator responded, "We've got him, and he's staying with us."

As Tyler, the Creator was speaking he noticed a second figure joining Jeru, but it didn't matter, Odd Future was here to finish this and end the terror (Tyler later discovered that the second figure was Afu-Ra, another traditionalist). Jeru spoke again, "Return hip hop to us and nobody gets hurt."

As Tyler, the Creator started to speak he was interrupted by Syd the Kyd yelling, "Do your best!"

Jeru crouched down and grabbed his microphone, as he started spitting the whole block went dark and started blurring out. Fire appeared everywhere.

Jeru is stronger than they thought.
The scene was intense. Tyler, the Creator could feel the pressure building in his head. Jeru was powerful. But Tyler, the Creator managed to grab his own mic, as did Hodgy Beats, Left Brain, and Mike G. They started spitting their own raps, even Domo Genesis started rapping as a hostage. But it was quickly apparent that Jeru was too powerful for them. Tyler, the Creator found it hard to coordinate his raps with his team, Jeru must have been scrambling their abilities, there was a new pressure on his neck, he was somehow being choked, and he was feeling like he was getting electrocuted. It was hopeless.



As he started to fall he noticed a gathering behind him: Odd Future fans. Not only that, Jeru's old enemies were gathering as well (ignorance, hatred, jealousy, envy, despair, animosity, deceit, tricknology, and Greedy Lou's more powerful brother Amos Greed). Plus the pork chop patrol was rolling up on the scene. It was time for Jeru to pay the piper.

At first Jeru stood strong, but he didn't realize the power and number of the new Odd Future fans. They were able to easily surround Jeru, then they cheered for the Odd Future crew. Jeru wasn't able to do his tricks, he tried to dip, but was blocked, he tried to dive but was stuck. The mob closed in around him and forced the release of Domo Genesis. The masses were strong but not able to kill the Prophet, so they finally managed to force him into his evil HeadQCourterz  and  they sealed the entrance. Peace was restored.

The Odd Future Team performed their 'Thank You' concert right there in front of Jeru's evil HeadQCourterz with Jeru inside. Domo Genesis was unharmed and hip hop stayed where it was popular. The city cheered. The world cheered.

Odd Future saved the day and Jeru was vanquished.
 

Thank God for Odd Future!

Odd Future Mysteries: The Case of Old Salem's Halloween Witch 

Your favorite Rap Crew Returns in your (least) favorite blog series!

Fans of Odd Future know that they typically host large celebrations for the holidays, and not just for Christmas and Easter, but for all the holidays - especially Halloween. As is the Odd Future tradition, they did a special Halloween costume show in Salem, Massachusetts for a friend of Taco’s named Alma who just inherited a club there. It was a great concert and all the crew dressed up like their favorite U.S. presidents. Frank Ocean dressed as JFK, Mike G was FDR, and Tyler, the Creator went as John Adams (of course, his favorite). They did all their best songs and rocked the party as always.  Once the show ended and the crew was cleaning up the stage, they were interrupted by the door slamming. A panicked young woman had entered, pale with fear, and out of breath from running.
Domo Genesis Tries to Help
"What’s wrong?” asked Domo Genesis, still wearing his Harry Truman costume.

The woman answered, “The witch! She’s back!”

Syd the Kyd rolled her eyes, not this again, she thought. But the woman looked terrified so Syd the Kyd asked for more information. “That old witch was out in the colonial cemetery just now…where they buried the witches from the trials over 200 years ago. That old witch Marta Jones, she’s come back to haunt us…she glows with anger.”

The team doubted her story but promised to help. They decided to see Taco’s friend Alma and ask for more information. But as they were walking to Alma’s house they ran into a police officer who was attaching a sign to a tree in Alma’s yard which simply read “WITCH!”. The officer warned them to stay away, that Alma was frequently possessed by the old Salem witch, and that she would take on a frightening glow. Taco didn’t believe it, he’d known Alma for years, but she wasn’t at the club during the last witch sighting, so maybe something was going on. They went inside despite the warning.

"It's getting kinda late" - Tyler, the Creator
Alma told them that she had never seen the witch. The young woman was one of many townspeople who claimed to frequently see the witch, and also claimed that the witch looked exactly like Alma.  The town believed the story because Alma is a direct descendant of Marta Jones. Feeling a sudden wave of exhaustion, Tyler, the Creator realized that with the show, and the mystery, the crew had managed to stay up past dark, so Alma invited them to stay at her house. Hodgy Beats and Left Brain were so tired that they decided to sleep in their president costumes. Hodgy Beats was George Washington and Left Brain was Harry Truman. As they were getting ready for bed Left Brain pointed out that in his George Washington costume Hodgy Beats looked like a witch. The powdered wig, the odd layers of coats and capes, the fake wooden teeth all added to the effect.  Hodgy Beats was not amused, but before he could respond the real witch appeared before their eyes! Without thinking Left Brain got up to tackle the witch, but before he could grab her she disappeared in a cloud of orange smoke.

Left Brain tries to sieze the witch
Hearing the commotion, Tyler, the Creator, Syd the Kyd, Domo Genesis, Taco and the rest of the crew run upstairs to find Hodgy Beats and Left Brain examining a strange orange liquid that eating away the carpet. Frank Ocean noticed movement outside and saw the witch running into the old cemetery. Odd Future set out after her, leaving Alma alone.  The witch was indeed glowing, but not running fast, as the team got close to her she disappeared into another cloud of orange smoke.  As they investigated the area Syd the Kyd found a hot piece of wire. A clue! As they headed back to the house another police officer warned them of the dangerous witch and advised them to stay away from Alma’s house and the cemetery. Once again the team ignored the warning.

Inside the house the team started looking for clues while Tyler, the Creator and Hodgy Beats went trick or treating.  Before long Taco found Alma’s family tree, they noticed the witch, Marta Jones, in her past, and they also found Alma – except her name had been erased and marked with the word Gemini. Perhaps another clue!

Nearby, while trick-or-treating Hodgy Beats was mistaken for the witch (since his George Washington costume looked so similar to the real witch). As people started yelling and pointing at him, he and Tyler, the Creator were forced to run but were soon captured by a giant mob. The pair was marched to the town square for an old fashion witch confession! The town thought they had finally caught Marta Jones! Since they weren’t interested in Tyler, the Creator (dressed as John Adams) he was able to pull off his wig and slip away through the crowd. He ran back to Alma’s house to get help from the team but found the police were there searching the house. He ducked into the old cemetery to think about what to do next, but as he ducked behind a mausoleum he ran into the rest of the Odd Future team. He told them that an angry crowd had grabbed Hodgy Beats and that he was in serious trouble. Syd the Kyd realized that they had to draw out the real witch and trap her, to prove that Hodgy Beats was innocent, so she and Domo Genesis started digging a hole for a trap while everyone else raced to the town square. 

Hodgy Beats is in Trouble
At the square the team spotted Hodgy Beats on an old elevated hanging platform. His hands were tied and he was still dressed as George Washington. Taco noted that he really did look like a witch. The platform was completely surrounded by the angry mob, they were yelling at him to confess to being a witch. Hodgy Beats was doomed!  Frank Ocean came up with a plan and asked for a big bag of flour. A few minutes later Frank Ocean snuck under the platform and released one of the trapdoors that was used to drop the condemned prisoners, he signaled to Hodgy Beats who understood the signal. In an instant Hodgy Beats jumped down through the trapdoor. At the same time Frank Ocean threw the flour up through the trap door. The crowd thought that Hodgy Beats had disappeared in a cloud of smoke! They screamed and dispersed. Frank Ocean untied Hodgy Beats and they both shed their presidential costumes. They escaped in the panicked crowd.

The Trap Door
A short while later the Odd Future crew met back up at the grave yard and was joined by Alma!  Syd the Kyd immediately asked her why the witch only showed up when she was gone. She didn’t know, but assured them that she was not the witch. Taco believed his friend, but the team wasn’t convinced, at least until Left Brain spotted the real witch running right for them!  Syd the Kyd quickly covered the hole and they moved back so the witch would fall in. Unfortunately, Hodgy Beats, who was still shook from his experience with the mob, lost his balance and fell into the trap! The witch would get them for sure. But as the witch approached she stepped on the shovel that Syd the Kyd had used to dig the hole, it sprung up and hit her in the head, knocking her out.

After helping Hodgy Beats out of the hole the team moved in for a closer look. The witch did look exactly like Alma. Maybe it really was a ghost! But once the witch woke up and realized that she had been captured by the Odd Future crew she told the truth.  She was Alma’s twin sister and had been acting like a witch to frighten the town into getting rid of Alma in order to inherit the club herself and turn it into a coffee shop. The chief of police, who was tired of all the problems from the rap club helped her with her plan and had his officers post signs and warn people about Alma to increase the pressure on her. Syd the Kyd realized that the word “Gemini” from the family tree meant “twins”, but she couldn’t figure out how the twin sister accomplished the glowing.  The sister revealed that she had constructed a battery powered LED vest, but it was damaged: the battery had started leaking (and probably burned the carpet) and a wire had also fallen off during the chase earlier that night. The mystery was solved! As the mayor saw to it that the twin sister and the chief of police were arrested, Hodgy Beats and Tyler, the Creator resumed their trick-or-treating, only this time they were dressed as RUN and DMC. Alma inherited her club and Odd Future saved the day!

Thank God for Odd Future!

Odd Future Mysteries: The Case of the Bayou Swamp Witch



"We're doing this crap again?" - You.

After a wrapping up a successful show in Baton Rouge, Louisiana the Odd Future Team decided to skip the tour bus and drive straight back home to California in a rented van.  Southern Louisiana if full of dark and creepy swamplands and Taco, who was driving, became more and more disoriented from the dirt roads and swampy swamps.  The deeper they traveled into the Bayou, the more frightened the team became.  Just as they were at their wits end and about to turn back Taco spotted a man standing by the side of the road and pulled up next to him to ask for directions to the highway.  But as the man turned, the team was stunned to see that he was a zombie!  Taco floored it and the team raced away, but Taco soon lost control on the wet roads and crashed into a fence at a nice little house.

TACO, Rapper & Driver
SWAMP SWAG
The owner of the house, Todd, was very friendly and invited them in for tea after he checked to see if they were okay.  As Tyler, the Creator described the man on the side of the road Todd appeared nervous.  He mentioned that he knew about the man and confirmed that he was, in fact, a troublemaking zombie.  Worse, he was conjured up by a powerful witch who lived deep in the swamp.  Todd and his cousin Ted had seen her bring the zombie to life a few months earlier and nobody had dared to go near the swamp since.  The nearby town had become deserted.

Frank Ocean Doubts this Zombie Business

While Tyler, the Creator, Syd the Kyd, Taco, and the rest of the team stayed behind for dinner, Hodgy Beats and Frank Ocean went off to Ted’s shack to question him.  But as they searched the shack they noticed that not only was Ted missing, but the only thing left of him was a voodoo doll lying in his bed.  Fearing the worst, Hodgy Beats and Frank Ocean rejoined the team and set out into the swamp on a fan boat to save Ted from the Swamp Witch.  After some searching, Syd the Kyd heard an unusual noise from deep in the swamp and realized that they were being watched, so she shined her floodlight in the direction of the sound and spotted the swamp witch and the zombie on another fan boat.  The chase was on!  The Odd Future team followed the evil duo to an abandoned riverboat, which the witch was using for a hideout. 


The witch and the zombie disappeared into the boat while the Odd Future team entered cautiously.  The riverboat was terrifying and had the Odd Future team shook, but they pressed on hoping to solve the mystery and save Ted.  As they entered the main deck of the boat Frank Ocean noticed a row of voodoo dolls resembling each member of the Odd Future team.  Left Brain let out a frightened gasp and suddenly the witch appeared before them in a cloud of yellow smoke and bellowed “Leave. LEAVE! BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!”.  But before the team could react, the witch quickly disappeared in another cloud of smoke, but this time she took Earl Sweatshirt along with her.

Earl Sweatshirt is in trouble!
After their initial shock, the Odd Future team deduced that it was all a trick, and Syd the Kyd searched the floor for a trapdoor.  It wasn’t long before she found it, and the team dropped down to the swamp and found the witch’s footprints leading to a swampy junkyard.  The team spotted the fanboat that the witch and the zombie were using along with a long iron tipped pole.  Mike G wondered aloud what that was for when Hodgy Beats noticed moaning coming from the distance and set out with Frank Ocean to investigate, they soon discovered the zombie moaning in the cabin of an old boat.  The zombie chased them into an old Bayou saloon but the Odd Future boys managed to lose it by hiding behind the bar. Once the zombie gave up searching, the boys tried to regroup with the rest of the team, but the rest of Odd Future was nowhere to be found. 
 
Frank Ocean called out to his team, but the noise attracted the swamp witch who appeared out of thin air and flew across the swamp toward them.  Hodgy Beats and Frank Ocean started running but were not able to stay ahead of the flying witch.  At the last second the boys jumped down an old coal chute and fell onto the deck of an old boat, they then crashed through the floor onto a lower deck maintenance room, they had escaped!  As their eyes focused in the dark they discovered the rest of Odd Future, including Earl Sweatshirt, tied up and gagged.  Hodgy Beats and Frank Ocean untied the team and raced back to their fanboat.  As they sped back to safety Tyler, the Creator spotted the witch following them!  She was once again flying through the air, the team was frightened and tried to go faster but something seemed odd. Taco noticed a wire coming from their boat, as he pulled it he realized that it was attached to the swamp witch.  The witch was just a balloon, that’s how she was able to fly.

"A balloon, of course." - Taco
The team was freshly convinced that this was all some sort of trick and decided to return to the main road to alert the authorities.  But as Left Brain navigated through the trees of the swamp, he noticed that the throttle control of the boat had been tampered with and was stuck at the highest speed.  They would crash into a tree!  As he franticly worked to fix the accelerator, Syd the Kyd threw out the anchor.  She hoped to snag an underwater root or tree, but instead heard the anchor snag something metal.  The boat slowed down as it pulled up an old armored truck from a Baton Rouge bank, full of money.  Left Brain was able to disconnect the gas line and fix the boat while the Odd Future Team devised a plan to capture the witch and the zombie.

Earl Sweatshirt and Domo Genesis decided to dress up in money sacks and lure the witch and zombie toward the armored truck where they could be locked inside.  The plan was set into action. Sure enough, the zombie and the witch appeared and followed the bags toward the truck, but at the last second Domo Genesis slipped and fell into the truck along with the villains.  As Syd the Kyd and Tyler, the Creator closed the doors, Jasper Dolphin was able to use a fishing rod and pull Domo Genesis to safety just as the doors latched shut, but not before he was able to grab the masks off of the witch and the zombie, who turned out to be Todd and Ted!

Tyler, the Creator called the police while the bad guys explained what happened.  They had stolen the truck years ago and lost control of it on the slippery Bayou roads.  It crashed into the swamp, but Todd and Ted were unable to find it.  They used the iron tipped pole to search for the truck, but perceived that the locals were finding their behavior suspicious, so the pair came up with the witch and zombie plot to scare anyone off who came around, and it worked. In the end the money was returned to its owners, the locals were able to return to their swamp homes, and Todd and Ted ended up in jail.  Odd Future saved the day!

Thank God for Odd Future!

Odd Future Mysteries: The Case of the Snow Ghost


Needing a break from their busy touring schedule, music production, and general mischief, the Odd Future team arrived at the Timberline Lodge, a spooky ski resort set high in Canadian Rockies for some winter recreation. When they checked in, the chuckling lodge owner, Mr. Davis, warned them to keep their doors and windows locked, or the "Snow Ghost" would get them and turn them into ghosts.  Of course the Odd Future team, being jaded and distrustful teenagers scoffed at the idea.  But as soon as Mr. Davis left the Snow Ghost itself showed up outside the window.  Stunned, the Odd Future team gace chase, but the specter disappeared into the woods.


Strangely, they discovered that the Ghost left giant tracks in the snow.  So they fired up their snowmobiles and followed the trail.  Eventually they caught up to the ghost, but as they got close they were forced to slow down as they approached a deep ravine.  Forced to come to a stop, Odd Future was astonished when the ghost glided right through thin air to the other side and disappeared into the woods.

Not being a team of suckers, Odd Future eventually made it to the other side of the ravine and started following the tracks again, this time they were led to a cave furnished with Tibetan objects. Confused by this turn of events the team was about to give up when Syd the Kyd rang a gong out of boredom, which summoned the cave's occupant, Fu-lan Chi, a refugee from the Himalayas who told them the true story of the Snow Ghost.  Fu-lan revealed that the apparition was actually the ghost of a Yeti.  When Fu-lan encountered the Yeti long ago in Asia, he was attacked, but managed to push it in a crevasse where it fell to its death. But his escape was short-lived, for the Yeti's ghost returned to seek its revenge on him and even followed him to the Canadian Rockies.



Of course, the Odd Future team doubted Fu-lan Chi's story and wanted to investigate further.  After leaving the mysterious cave Frank Ocean quickly discovered a new set of Snow Ghost tracks, this time covered in sawdust.  Once again the team followed them only to discover a creepy deserted sawmill. They split up to investigate, but trouble quickly found them.  Hodgy Beats disappeared down a trap door, while the Snow Ghost grabbed Syd the Kyd.  As the rest of the team looked for clues, the great sawmill came alive and started processing wood!  Tyler, the Creator spotted Syd the Kyd hopelessly chained to a log and moving down a giant conveyor toward a giant buzz saw. Moving quickly, Tyler, the Creator managed to pull her out of danger as they slid down the belt into a freezing lake.  The Snow Ghost angrily sent another log after them; this one was packed with dynamite.  Tyler, the Creator and Syd the Kyd dove down into the cold water at the last second and barely escaped the fiery explosion.


Regrouping later, Tyler, the Creator and Syd the Kyd met up with Domo Genesis and Earl Sweatshirt.  At first Odd Future were grateful to be safe, but suddenly Hodgy Beats appeared before them, pale and moaning like a phantom. Fortunately the event was brief as he quickly returned to his normal color and collapsed into a pool of water.  As the water slowly turned ghost-white, Syd the Kyd theorized that Hodgy Beats was not actually transformed into a ghost, as Mr. Davis would have them believe, but was sprayed with a white substance to make him look like a ghost. As Domo Genesis started to speculate that, maybe, the Snow Ghost wasn't a phantom either, the Snow Ghost suddenly appeared and chased them. Frightened, Domo Genesis, Earl Sweatshirt and Syd the Kyd ducked behind a pile of logs and were able to escape the ghostly snow monster.  This turned out to be a lucky break because as they were hiding Earl Sweatshirt discovered a hollow log filled with diamonds and jewelry.



Just as the Snow Ghost was about to give up its search for the Odd Future team it noticed Hodgy Beats and Tyler, the Creator running toward a snowmobile.  Gliding upright a few inches above the snow the ghost quickly gained ground on our heroes, but they managed to start the machine and escape just in time, racing over the frozen lake.  As they raced away from danger they noticed that the water from the ice was sticking to them and freezing them like popsicles.  Not wanting to fall victim to the Snow Ghost they raced on, but were eventually frozen into a block of solid ice. 


After the Snow Ghost disappeared, Domo Genesis, Earl Sweatshirt and Syd the Kyd raced out on the lake to the frozen duo to chip them out.  Stunned, frozen, and defeated the Odd Future team was about to call it quits, but Hodgy Beats had an idea: they'll lure the Snow Ghost to a place where they can quick-freeze it by dumping a tub of water on it, and then they’ll get to the bottom of this mystery.
Hodgy Beats comes up with a plan!

As they set their trap near the cave entrance the Snow Ghost suddenly appeared behind Tyler, the Creator, Domo Genesis acted fast and tipped the tub of water right on the ghost, but the plan failed because the water froze too quickly and just dumped ice cubes on the Ghost. Acting fast, Earl Sweatshirt grabbed the Ghost and pulled him to the ground, but the ghost was incredibly strong and started manhandling Earl. Not wanting to see his friend hurt, Hodgy Beats catapulted an enormous snowball at Earl and the Ghost, knocking them to the ground. They rolled down the steep slope, tangling up the rest of the Odd Future Team in the giant snowball before crashing into a cliff face.  Dazed but unhurt the team sat in the snow pile trying to sort out what happened when they realized that the Snow Ghost was sitting with them, also dazed.  Syd the Kyd noticed something odd about this Snow Ghost and reached for a seam on the back of its neck.  Removing a mask the team revealed the Snow Ghost to be Mr. Davis: he and his partner Mr. Leech used Fu-lan Chi's story of the Snow Ghost as a cover for their smuggling operation.  Pulling off his costume they revealed how he managed to float: transparent plastic skis.  Tyler, the Creator restrained the criminal while Domo Genesis called the authorities.  Odd Future saved the day!

Thank God for Odd Future!
