Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know is the first episode of Battle for Dream Island Again, the 26th episode overall, and the first episode of the second season of BFDI. It was released on June 29, 2012. In this episode, the characters find out who achieved enough votes to advance to BFDIA.
Leafy being chased by some of the original BFDI competitors.
After Leafy buys Dream Island in the last episode of the previous season (BFB 22 reveals the events leading up to this episode), a group of some of the season 1 contestants (Golf Ball, Pin, Tennis Ball, Pencil, Pen, Blocky, Teardrop, Coiny, and Ice Cube) are shown chasing her through a gate, over many hills and through Evil Forest. While running across the Evil Canyon, she is smacked by her map (possibly thrown at her by Firey), causing her to fall over and hang on with her hand for her life. She says "Blue skidoo, we can too!" allowing her to jump into the map and teleport to Yoyleland. Pin catches the map and tears it into little tiny pieces before throwing them into the air, trapping Leafy in Yoyleland.
Voting results
TV loads the votes for the next BFDIA contestants.
After the dramatic beginning, Pen approaches Eraser, Blocky, and Snowball and points out the BFDI voting results. The total votes are 15532. Overall, the contestants who made it are Rocky, Nickel, Firey, Leafy, Teardrop, Bomby, Bubble, Needle, Spongy, Dora, Pin, Ruby, Tennis Ball, Coiny, Pencil, Match, Ice Cube, Flower, Donut, and Fries. A scoop comes between the Season 2 cast and the "losers that didn't join BFDIA" and moves them into separate groups. Book is frustrated and sad that she didn't make it. Lollipop guesses that Book didn't make it because viewers judged her by her cover. Book isn't sure whether she should be angry or indifferent about the remark.
Suddenly, a sheet entitled "BFDI GAME RULES" smacks Book. Eraser takes the sheet and reads aloud rule one, which states contestants not present can't compete. Coiny feels a bit good about that rule. Since Bubble, Nonexisty, Leafy, Woody, and Flower are dead/nonexistent/missing, they are disqualified, allowing Book, Puffball, and Yellow Face to join. Also, since InternPony707 and DegrasssiFan got to pick a character they wanted to join Season 2, Golf Ball (InternPony707's pick) and Gelatin (DegrasssiFan's pick) also make it. Book says that she knew that she would make it. Fries then backs away, since he can't stand Book's cover. An annoyed Book slaps Fries and eats one of his fries. In return, Fries slaps Book, making her spit out the fry, and eats one of Book's pages. He spits it out after 3-4 seconds, and Book unceremoniously reattaches the page.
"Yeah, who? I wanna know!"
Gelatin questions who the host would be. Puffball replies by singing a long, drawn-out song, called "Yeah, who? I wanna know!" in which she floats around while sparkling and changing size. Everybody is so happy (except for Rocky) and gets distracted, especially Firey, whose spiraling eyes indicate he may have been completely hypnotized until he shakes himself awake. He then recommends TV to be the host, since he is the closest to the Announcer. In response, TV displays the word "YAY" on his screen, along with a loud "ta-da" sound. Golf Ball asks Eraser if there are any more rules provided. Eraser then reads aloud rule two, which states that all eliminated contestants must be killed, and within seconds they are all crushed. Fortunately, it turns out that Eraser was only hallucinating, and the real rule states that all eliminated contestants must be treated with TLC. The contestants who didn't get enough votes scream as they are flung to the TLC.
Picking the teams
"Well, sometimes you just have to deal with getting SLAPPED!"
The contestants decide to split into 2 teams. Tennis Ball says that one team should have the original contestants from season 1, and the other one should have the newbies (new contestants). Donut points out that his team was much smaller than the other team. Pencil says in a rather mean way that maybe he has to deal with it. Donut then says "Sometimes you have to deal with getting slapped!" while slapping Pencil across the face. Pencil retorts, "Sometimes you have to deal with getting stabbed!" while stabbing the top of him with her tip. Donut snaps back, "Sometimes you have to deal with being set ablaze", and places Firey onto Pencil, burning her. Firey suggests to Donut to maybe just calm down. Pencil says "Sometimes Firey's right", and Donut responds, "Sometimes Firey's wrong". Then Puffball joins the conversation with an excellent idea: "Sometimes if a player switches teams they'll be equal". Pencil quickly says, "Sometimes it maybe won't be me". Donut selects Match to join their side to upset Pencil. Pencil is taken aback and begins to exhale flames. Match regrets the fact that she and Pencil must stick together. Pencil tells Donut he'll pay for that and breathes out the fire, which hits Book instead of Donut.
Well, sometimes you have to deal with getting STABBED!
Everyone except for Donut changes to the originals team.
Yellow Face then reads rule three, which says that contestants should spin the wheel to choose each contest. Fries is very impatient as Gelatin is about to spin the wheel. Then Firey states one more rule - rule four: Before a contest begins, players may switch teams if they want. Match immediately heads back to Pencil's team. Then everybody else except Donut also goes to Pencil's team since it has more members and is therefore stronger. The wide-screen format grows even wider to emphasize Donut and Pencil's intense stares at each other. Pencil intervenes by pulling the screen to a portrait size that shows her full body, saying she likes that screen better. Match agrees while others change the screen to their liking. Firey suggests that everyone show their favorite screens. Various screens are shown until Golf Ball urges everyone to stop. Coiny switches teams after Firey is about to slap him. Then everybody urges Pin to switch teams until she finally does so.
Contest
The voting screen with the little team up for elimination.
Gelatin spins the wheel to decide the first challenge, and it lands on a good old-fashioned game of "tug of war", causing everyone to gasp. After the BFDIA intro finally plays, the larger team easily wins the contest, putting the little team of these 3 up for elimination. The voting system has changed from comments to voting. Each contestant now has a video, which means that the video with the most dislikes will be eliminated, and the video with the most likes will get a prize.
In the end, Leafy is shown to still be in Yoyleland with a recommended character called Boombox by Anko6. Boombox advertises the Leafy detector until Leafy turns him off. The episode then ends in silence.
Snowball, Blocky, Spongy, Dora, Needle, Ice Cube, Bomby, Rocky, TV, Basketball, 8-Ball, Balloony, Fanny, and other contestants appear; however, they do not speak.
Trivia
This is the first episode of BFDIA, as well as the first episode of BFDIA not to have any deaths.
Another Name in the last season is the only team that all members in that team compete in Season 2.
Unlike the last season, this season's premiere is not in 2 parts.
This is the first episode to have Blocky, Snowball, and David appear without speaking.
Fries went through a major character re-design since he was last seen in Reveal Novum.
Nickel also went through a major character re-design, losing his arms and sign.
Ruby also went through a re-design; however, only her colors are different.
Donut has his old design in the scenes where he appears on-screen, until the part where he talks.
Match and Ruby also went through a quite noticeable voice change since last season, but now their voices sound sharper pitched.
This is because her voice was created with FL Studio, as mentioned by Cary on his BFB 3 reaction video (even though Ruby was voiced by Michael at this time).
Eraser was the only contestant who previously inspected Leafy's stealing of Dream Island that was not seen chasing her at the beginning of the episode.
An "alternate cut" of 0:38 to 1:25 was uploaded to jacknjellify 5 days after the release of BFDIA 1. The scene is like the original, but with darker colors, echoed voices, and six Evil Leafy cameos. This video is most likely a joke.
Rocky starts to smile less in this season. The only time Rocky smiles in this episode are in the intro and when everyone is showing their favorite screens.
This is the first time in the series that the voting was cast by clicking on UFE contestants' videos and rating either like for the contestant to receive a prize or dislike to have them be eliminated.
This is the second time Coiny was up for elimination first.
In the tug-of-war challenge, Coiny falls first, Pin falls second, and Donut last. However, Donut lands first, Pin falls second, and Coiny falls last.
This is the most viewed episode in BFDIA, and the second most viewed of all jacknjellify's videos, with Take the Plunge: Part 1 being the first with over 60,000,000 views. It is also the channel's most viewed video from 2012.
Jacknjellify released an FLA of the chase scene here.
When Book is set on fire, she screams like Firey.
This is the first episode not to be released on the first day of a month.
Continuity references
The episode begins with the contestants chasing Leafy for stealing Dream Island.
In "Who Stole Donut's Diary?", it's revealed that Leafy was suddenly running by herself because the hang glider crashed.
Leafy says "Blue skidoo, we can too!" a second time in order to teleport through her map. The last time this happened was in "The Glistening".
Leafy, Flower, Woody, and Bubble are removed from the season voting due to their deaths in "Return of the Hang Glider". However, Leafy didn't die.
In Eraser's hallucination, the eliminated contestants were crushed by a large cuboid similar to the one on the Announcer Crusher.
Some of the challenges on the wheel are references to the challenges in BFDI.
It was revealed later on in "SOS (Save Our Show)" that the Announcer forged the BFDI game rules.
Cultural references
Leafy says "Blue skidoo, we can too!", which is a reference to the kids' show Blue's Clues.
Book saying "Hey! Wait..." 3 times is a reference to the Homestar Runner toon "Strongest Man in the World".
Puffball's favorite screen being a silhouette of Abraham Lincoln could be a reference to an easter egg in the Homestar Runner "Fluffy Puff Commercial" toon, where pressing the "L" button causes the screen to have a silhouette of Abraham Lincoln's head.
However, she could've meant that Leafy would get away with stealing Dream Island.
At 2:30, when non-present contestants are being erased from the voting results, Golf Ball's name is completely missing from the scoreboard. It has since been fixed by an annotation.
When Puffball said "Yeah who? I wanna know!" for the first time, Gelatin's arm is detached for a split-second, and Coiny and Golf Ball just randomly appear out of nowhere. Not only that, but when she says it for the third time, they aren't near Tennis Ball. However, when she says it for the 4th time, the duo are.
Eraser is seen in front of Pen when he tells Eraser, Blocky, and Snowball to look at the TV displaying season 2 contestants. Eraser is then seen among the crowd around TV, less than one second later.
At 2:36 when Book, Yellow Face, and Puffball are being dropped, screaming can be heard, even though none of their mouths moved.
At 3:49, Firey's flame isn't moving.
At 5:42, Coiny's mouth appears darker.
When the contestants split between newbies and original contestants, Ruby's body overlaps Bomby's string.
When everyone is yelling "Switch", Bomby's arm goes on his face.
After Firey suggests to show their favorite screens, there is an arm floating near Needle.
Some contestants constantly buzz every time they talk.
In BFDIA 5a, Coiny said that if Nickel and he get too close, "bad things" happen. However, at 2:29 in this episode, Nickel is standing right beside Coiny pretty close and nothing happened.
The Sender Scoop Thrower somehow flings Black Hole despite his ability to suck anything and fly.
When Pencil is turning her screen vertical, her arm is detached for a split-second.
TV isn't touching the ground during the contest.
At 6:26, Teardrop can be seen walking in mid-air.
At 2:02, "DegrassiFan" is spelled as "DegrasssiFan".
