Plot

While the ship is flying through the halls, three pyramid bots notice the ship and chase it. The rebel is notified of this by a warning appearing on his holographic control panel. One of the bots then launches a grappling hook and clings onto the ship. While the rebel tries to shake it off, the bot electrifies the hook, which starts diverting power from the ship in an attempt to stop it. The rebel attempts to lose hold by frantically shaking the ship, but when all else fails, the rebel closes his eyes, until they flash open again with his pupils glowing blue. He then causes an EMP shockwave which neutralizes the bots. With the bots dealt with, the ship continues on its route to the pyramid.

Lyrics

Hey, Zemetekile, bring us where we say
Astra Makula, the leader, is one of a kind
Astra-Astra-Astra leader is one of a kind

Trivia

• This bonus’s name was highly assumed to be named The Ship due to the icon seen.
• One of the hashtags in the WIP post suggested that the name of the bonus would have been "Starship".
• This is the only bonus in Incredibox that requires four of one type of beatbox (in this case, beats) to unlock it.
• Zémé Té Kilé is the protagonist (who is also likely Lead due to the emblem on his cybernetic body in Cumulor), confirmed by Bonus 2 of Wekiddy, URFO.
• "The word “Zemetekile” comes from Bulgarian as “Вземете кила” which means “Take the keel”.
• The original lyrics provided by So Far So Good say "Zemetekile" (along with the bonus name), which differs from URFO's mentioning of the protagonist, "Zémé Té Kilé."
• “Astra makula” mentioned in the lyrics is likely an exclamation referring to the protagonist (Zémé Té Kilé), which roughly translates to “star eyes," with "astra" being the plural form of the Latin "star," and "macula" being the plural form referencing the center of the retina. This fits the bonus, as the exclamation is followed by the protagonist's eyes lighting, sending an EMP.
• "Astra-astra-astra" may be a reference to Reach, who repeatedly says "reaching the stars." Reach is not in the bonus combo.
• This is the second bonus ever to require only 2 sound categories to unlock it, with the first being Kofitez.

Lead's icon seen in the bonus.

• In Choir's ship, when faced with conflict, Lead's icon can be seen on the left.
  • This marks the first-time references to other versions were placed in bonuses and foreshadows the reveal of Lead's icon on Choir's cybernetic body.
