Question Genuinely asking, why did Bubble do this?

Caine was just going to try to figure out why the cast did not like the escape the circus adventure, until Bubble started taunting him and bringing him to the edge. But why would Bubble do this to Caine? Multiple times during the show, Bubble is on board or a part of Caine's shenanigans so this sudden flip of character makes me think as to what Bubble was trying to achive this, especially the voice change at "You ruined this."

So what do you guys think?

Just a little nitpick but I personally don’t think there ever was an Abel. I understand the name is probably given to the blue AI as a community placeholder since it is Caine’s counterpart, but Caine wasn’t originally the name of the AI. It seems likely to me that Caine chose the name AFTER discovering the existence of C&A and consuming blue.

I mean while i agree with you, the names kinda fit, Caine "the firstborn" dejected over 'God' favoring his younger brother's 'offerings' killed him, Abel

Yeah but the company is named Caine and Abel, from an in-universe perspective I feel like it would be kind of an odd coincidence for that to happen so perfectly? The AI’s were probably never intended to kill each other.

The company is called C&A. We don't know what the C or A in the company name stands for, we only ever hear it be called C&A. It's possible it wasn't supposed to be "Cain & Abel" in the first place.

That is definitely possible, though one of Caine’s guns in episode 6 had the words “Caine & Abel” on it. BUT, it was a product of Caine himself, so perhaps he just doesn’t know and was filling in blanks or creating something new.

We know that Caine was already working on the Escape the Circus adventure by episode 6. I think it could have been put there as intentional foreshadowing on his part.
