History
Future Boy Zoltron
While working as Zoltron, Steven sees Mr. Frowney standing at the edge of the boardwalk. He goes over to Steven, or the Zoltron machine, and inserts a quarter. His first question is if it was a mistake to come to Beach City. Steven hesitates at his answer, but says it wasn't, and "Funland is fun! For all ages..." Mr. Frowney inserts another quarter, asking will talking to "him" make a difference. Steven says he isn't sure and says that human emotions are "really complicated to Zoltron." The third quarter is inserted, and he asks if he drives everyone around himself away from him. At a complete loss of words, Steven gives him the lucky numbers that the Zoltron machine had given him earlier: 16, 47, and W. Mr. Frowney proceeds to insert his final quarter, but it slips out of his hand and falls through the cracks of the boardwalk. He sighs, saying even coins didn't want to be around him. After Garnet passes on her future vision to Steven, she tells Mr.Frowney that "Zoltron" was ready to answer his question and hands him a quarter. He inserts the quarter and asks, "What would he say if he saw me now?" Steven, after seeing three future options, just says he sees sadness in his future, no matter what he did. Mr. Frowney agrees with it and dismisses the idea that the curtain had closed on Mr. Smiley and Mr. Frowney. He continues expressing that he was too late, and leaves for the bus stop. Mr. Smiley reveals to Steven they used to have an act together but onstage, nothing could have made Mr. Frowney cheer up, not even himself. Steven tells Mr. Smiley to talk to Mr. Frowney before he leaves town, but Mr. Smiley doesn't know what would happen if he did. This activates Steven's temporary future vision, seeing three different occurrences again.Steven tells him, "You said you were always trying to make him happy. Did he even know he was making you sad?" This convinces Mr. Smiley to go and see Mr. Frowney at the bus stop, with Steven. After a brief reunion, Mr. Frowney asks if Mr. Smiley was just there to laugh at him again, to which he denies, saying that he wanted things to work. However, it wasn't making Mr. Frowney happy, but Mr. Frowney wanted it to be taken seriously, and Mr. Smiley wanted him to have fun. Mr. Frowney sadly tells him it must have never meant to be and thought they really had something. Mr. Smiley remembers an old act of theirs and asks him questions, to which Mr. Frowney responds with a pessimistic view. They reenact the entire bit, which ends with Mr. Smiley holding Mr. Frowney upside down, making him laugh. Feeling better, Mr. Frowney tells him he finally got the joke and hugs him goodbye as he leaves, patching up their relationship.
Relationships
Harold Smiley
Harold and Quentin were a comedy duo. Most of their jokes were about their opposite personalities; Quentin being a pessimist and Harold being a optimist was an advantage and, according to Mr. Smiley, they had full houses and ovations whenever they performed. Smiley started getting sad because Frowney wasn't having any fun and nothing was making him happy, and Frowney said he just wanted Smiley to take their act seriously. After they started to make each other unhappy, they "closed the curtains" on their act and their relationship, and, as far as it's known, didn't really speak much after it. After re-enacting one of their bits, their relationship was patched as they hugged after it and Mr. Smiley waved happily after him.
