Meanwhile, Banjo and his friends are playing poker. Mumbo finds out about the witches and tries warns the others to escape from [[Banjo's House]].

Because Gruntilda is skeletal due to the amount of time she spent trapped under the boulder, she and her sisters use their newly-invented [[Big-O-Blaster]] to suck the life force out of the residents of the various worlds in the [[Isle O' Hags]] to restore Gruntilda to her former appearance. Banjo and Kazooie head on another adventure to stop Gruntilda. Since Bottles died, Banjo and Kazooie learn new abilities from Bottles' brother, [[Jamjars]]. They can enter new worlds by returning Jiggies to [[Jiggywiggy's Temple]]. Banjo and Kazooie also make use of the [[Split-Up Pad]]s, which allow them to explore areas by themselves. | Because Gruntilda is skeletal due to the amount of time she spent trapped under the boulder, she and her sisters use their newly-invented [[Big-O-Blaster]] to suck the life force out of the residents of the various worlds in the [[Isle O' Hags]] to restore Gruntilda to her former appearance.
