"Having many arms allows me to help a lot more people!"
- Stinger Flynn
Overview
Appearance
Depiction
Stinger Flynn's design depicts an orange jellyfish with one eye in the middle of his bell shaped head, connecting to 6 extendable tentacles. Four of his tentacles are down, while the other two are up at the sides of his head in a friendly pose.
Monster
Stinger Flynn looks similar to his depiction counterpart but there are still some differences. The lower part of his bell shaped head extends downward slightly more in multiple places, he has several veins due to Givanium, and he also has a large burn scar across his eye. Flynn also is larger than Jumbo Josh and Cyan Fiddles, but smaller than Zolphius. In his dreams and after being drained of Givanium in IV he is much smaller, being around the size of the player.
Personality
Stinger Flynn is a highly intelligent manipulator who sees others, including his fellow mascots, as nothing but pawns in his plan to achieve "mental refinement". He does not resort to violence and tends to blame others for the problems that arise around him even if he has a major part in starting them. He has control over most of his emotions except for hate and sorrow which makes him a dull practically emotionless bitter jerk who always complains about what others have done.
Gameplay
GoB II:
Flynn plays a slightly bigger role in Garten Of Banban II than in the first game, as he has his own mission just like Opila Bird in the first game. In the mission, the player is tasked to collect all 8 seashells and put them in Stinger Flynn's treasure chest. After collecting the 8 seashells, a shelf next to the chest opens where you can find a Keycard that grants you access to the cannon minigame.
GoB III:
Flynn's importance is raised again by him being the main antagonist of this installment. Initially, he serves as an ally to the player, attempting to guide them into leaving Banban's kindergarten, as he fears they may never be able to rescue their child. However, as time goes on, he becomes more angered by their refusal to do so, and eventually turns against them, sending out a monstrous Banban to kill them. We also discover a new place thanks to him, a dreamland like-scape entitled The Beach, where he can take people and the other residents of the kindergarten (as seen with Banban, Opila Bird, Captain Fiddles , and Nabnab) to regroup their minds, and get back to what they want to do. Zolphius also resides in this area, hinting he has the same motives as the others who can enter The Beach. Additionally, in between these segments in The Beach, we can access Stinger Flynn Mode, in which
we can witness flashbacks of Stinger Flynn in his original state, and play as him.
After a while, the player tames Tarta Bird, who then leads them through a door, in which Flynn and Opila Bird are found. Stinger Flynn then talks about Banban and how he helped you to get to that point. Shortly after, Flynn drops Banban, in which Banban then turns feral and jumps back up onto the rail, and chases the player along with Opila and Tarta Bird.
After the chase is complete, Banban catches up to the player, about to kill them. Jumbo Josh then interferes, and Tarta Bird and Opila Bird bring the player up the stairs to a higher and safer view. Banban proceeds to attack Jumbo Josh, in which Jumbo Josh slams Banban onto the ground. As Jumbo Josh is about punch Banban again, Flynn interferes and tells both of them to stop. Jumbo Josh then grabs Flynn's eye and proceeds to slam him onto the ground as well, causing Tarta Bird to fall off the upper floor. Opila Bird then jumps off to save Tarta Bird, leaving the player with her chick.
GoB IV:
Flynn's role in Garten of Banban IV, is a lot smaller in this game, with him now being reduced to a side character. Due to their continuous persuit of their children, Flynn blames the player for the position both are currently in, with him now locked up, and the player now in the kingdom. He takes them back to The Beach, where they, Banban, Nabnab, Opila Bird and Captain Fiddles now reside in a forest, after the crashing of the Stinger Mobile (Zolphius can also be seen in the background too.) It is suddenly interrupted however, by a monsterous-train.
Prior to Bittergiggle releasing The Naughty Ones, Sheriff Toadster, let all the prisoners escape, so they don't get hurt. Flynn, however, was grabbed by Toadster, and taken to the elevator, as he believes his knowledge could be useful. Flynn is noticeably more smaller, in comparison to his size in the previous game.
GoB V:
TBA if he appears.
GoB VI:
Flynn's role are small like in a Garten of Banban VI. He first appears in a beginning of the game, he lays in The Lift after escaping The Naughty Ones and Bittergiggle. His eye is closed.
After Ms. Mason was kidnapped by the Naughty One he lays next to Scepter's Storage Gates. He says a few words to Player and Bittergiggle.
After Kittysaurus was appeared next to the door he moves next to the Darkness. After dialogue with him he teleport Player to his mind, to Bus Station
GoB VII:
Flynn's role is slightly bigger in Garten of Banban VII, since as always, He shows you a new dream inside of a plane or a helicopter. And also at the end he realises that, the banban mural can be peeled off which might indicate that, He might be locked up in Garten of Banban VIII
GoB VIII:
TBA if he appears.
Voicelines Transcripts
Garten of Banban III
First time encountering Stinger Flynn:
- You've had a rouge day. I can tell.
- You diligently wait for the moment you leave this wretched place with your child in hand, I can also tell.
- Not to undermine your efforts, but I fear that moment may never come.
- I cannot let it happen, and I will gladly show you why, but after I do, you take my advice.
- Leave this place while you still can. Erase it from your memory. Move on and forget any of this ever happened, and I promise you...
- Tomorrow will be a better day.
The Beach:
- Welcome to my home.
- Or at least, what was supposed to be my home.
- Down in the dark and cold depths of the facility, the circumstances force you to do things that are out of your nature.
- When I feel that I am straying too far off my original course, I head to the room you have found me in meditating in to mentally regroup.
- I come to this place, and then I'm reminded that what I'm fighting for is worth all of this pain and suffering.
- Of course, none of this is real, but it could be.
- I have never had actual sun rays touch my skin, can you imagine that? And I yearn for the day they finally do.
- I need the children to achieve that, but do not worry. I will practice the safest of procedures.
- Whatever I decide to do with the adults, I will make sure to keep one alive and sane so that the surviving children are delivered to the surface safe and sound.
- And of course, to deliver me to where I choose to be...
- Oh, to live the life of a completely brainless jellyfish; just munching on shrimp and avoid getting eaten by turtles all day.
- You never appreciate how calming it is to have no conscience until you have one.
- I admire your courage, so I am giving you the chance to walk away.
- Take it. That way you won't lose both your life and the chance to see your child.
Next to the The Lift:
- You've overstayed your welcome here.
- I even made you an offer, but guess what, accepting it is long overdue.
- Don't worry, I won't get rid of you or collect you just yet. I was never one to abide by waste.
- An old friend needs you a lot more than I do. They too are on a path to achieve peace of mind.
- I already have enough subjects to move forward with my aspiration and my mental refinement.
- You just take a little nap before I transfer you to where you're supposed to be...
Road Trip:
- I believe we are lost.
- I am struggling to locate the being who asked for your opinion.
- Can you all stop vocalizing for just one second so I can focus on the road?
- If your pathetic mouth utters another infuriating sentence, I will stuff your whole body into one of those stupid party hats on your head.
Pre-Hellish Banban Chase:
- Okay... bird-riding is a new one, I'll give you that.
- What drives you forward so vigorously? I refuse to accept that it's your protective parental instincts.
- Oh, I know. Someone has given you false hope, promised you what you want when all along they had one thing on their mind.
- Pancreases.
- At first I was confused about how everything was going perfectly in your favor, despite you never being here before.
- And then it hit me. Someone has to have been guiding you.
- And as with most things, I was right. You did have help.
- Your friend here has helped me tremendously.
- Thanks to him, I bore witness to very vital information.
- What information, you ask?
- Well, when my turn comes, I will simply prevent myself from turning into what he turned into.
Monster Fight:
- STOP IT, YOU TWO!
Garten of Banban IV
Trapped:
- Oh… It’s you….
- Don’t worry, I’m unable to hurt you. I’m too weak to do anything.
- By not listening to me and leaving when you had the chance, you have made a great mistake.
- Finally after managing to keep Josh under control, you just had to come and anger him.
- Look where your arrogance got us now; a position where neither of us can get to the children.
- This is your fault, and nobody else’s. I meant it when I said I would practice the safest of procedures.
- But regardless, I have something I want to show you.
- It sure looks like you need it.
At the campfire:
- Agreed.
- I already consumed my share of the nutrients we have gathered while you were in the slumber.
- I have never witnessed kindness coming from a spider before.
- I am pretty content he is not gracing us with his irritating presence.
- We’ve had our fair share of altercations.
- Hate is one of the two emotions I am unable to control.
- How is any being able to move past constant sorrow in a world like ours.
- Sometimes I feel like we’re all just doomed forever.
- We each have our plans and goals but at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter.
- Nor can it undo the past or previous misery.
- Our lives aren't perfect yet.
- Lots of other creatures reside in this ecosystems.
- Could be anything.
Garten of Banban VI
After Banbaleena's kidnapping:
- Oh... It's you two...
- The duo of destruction. Didn't you cause all of this to happen?
- Everyone that you care to see you redeem yourself is probably already gone, so what's the point?
Pre-bus station:
- I wanted to let you know that this is all happening because of you. Never convince yourself otherwise.
- If you hadn't intervened with my plan or the queen's, you'd be home on your warm bed.
- I would be free of my shackles, and everyone you hurt would not have been hurt.
- And ask yourself this. If I wasn't hooked up to pipes that drained me of my Givanium and shrunk my size.
- Could my original size have aided us in our predicament?
- Because of your foolish decisions, we are even less likely now to ever get back to the children.
- Regardless, there is another thing I want to show you.
- It sure looks like you need it.
At the Bus Station: (Dream)
- Quit whining, you’re not the only one.
- Maybe sleep for a bit like Opila,
- The bus is here.
- Ignore that, it’s not the correct one.
- We cannot. We must get to the beach.
- I will be frank, I did not know it would be this difficult to reach our destination.
- If it weren’t for your infuriating actions we would not be in this current predicament.
- You sure you wanna do this again?
- Do you have an idea how to get back from here?
- Another bus is here.
- And no one wants to conversate with a being who is less useful than the seat they’re sitting on.
- Get back here, this is the wrong bus too.
- I’m thinking.
- We just lost two…
- This wasn’t supposed to happen, we need to follow them.
Garten of Banban VII
Meeting Stinger Flynn
- I can’t say I’m happy to see you alive and well.
- That crazy leech can’t turn me into one of his minions, but it’s still too dangerous for me to wander out there.
- I want you to think of the amount of terror the children would feel at the sight of even just one of these… Naughty Ones…
- These mindless animals that hate nothing more than they hate humans.
- At this point, I wouldn’t eliminate the possibility that they found where I’ve hid the children.
- It is your actions that have even made this a possibility in the first place. It’s all your fault.
- Regardless, there is another thing I want to show you.
- It sure looks like you need it.
Inside the plane (Dream)
- I guess the same as always.
- We continue the forsaken journey to the beach.
- I DO NOT KNOW!
- I apologize, I am just tired of all of this.
- Tired of everything.
- There is no point, Banban.
- I fail to locate a point in doing any of it.
- and I fail to locate an end in sight.
- Maybe it’s time we abandon this plan.
- I mean how did we end up flying over a sea of Givanium instead of an actual sea?
- I am finished with your constant babbling.
- It’s always a mistake to start a conversation with you.
- Stay back, we’re gonna crash!
Falling from the sky (Dream)
- You need to stop!
- Are you out of your non-existent mind?!
Inside the hospital
- Umm… Why does it look like we can peel that drawing on the wall?
- That drawing on the wall. Seems like there’s something behind it.
Trivia
- Flynn was originally meant to be the main antagonist of Garten Of Banban instead of Opila Bird, as confirmed in the "How we made Opila Bird from Garten of Banban" video by the Euphoric Brothers.
- If you scan a QR-Code on one of the Notes from Garten Of Banban II you will get this text: "Do not trust the jellyfish" referring to Stinger Flynn, meaning that it is likely he is tricking the children and has malicious intentions.
- Despite having a non-humanoid appearance, Stinger Flynn has a human donor, as confirmed in his file because of his ability to speak
- Flynn might have a connection with Slow Seline, Nabnab, and Jumbo Josh as images of them are found on QR Codes on Stinger Flynn's Case Update Reports.
- Compared to Garten of Banban III's banner, Stinger Flynn's eye has a different expression, that seems happier or relaxed but also seems mad or grumpy. It is unknown if this was intentional.
- Flynn's depiction on the mural with all the other characters depicted him being shorter than characters like Jumbo Josh and Sheriff Toadster. But in the Monster fight, he is bigger than Jumbo Josh in person. So it is possible he can change his size.
- Flynn could be considered the least aggressive of the mascots, as he never tries to hurt the workers, children, or the player (albeit until the very end of GOB III), nor does he actively attack Jumbo Josh and Banban during the Monster Fight.
- Flynn clips through the floor in the final room in Garten of Banban III, with his long tentacles going through the floor while he tries to stop the fight between Banban and Jumbo Josh.
- Stinger Flynn is similar to a Jellyfish in almost every sense, considering jellyfish don't have organs (Although Flynn has a eye, which is the only organ that can be consider a thing for him).
- Stinger Flynn has spoken the most dialogue in the series. He has a total of 64 lines, across the two games.
- Despite his initial giant size in the third game, Flynn is shown to have inexplicably shrunken down in the fourth game. A likely reason for this is that givanium needed to be extracted from his body, in order for Sheriff Toadster to successfully contain him. This was officially confirmed by Stinger Flynn himself in Garten of Banban VI.
- He is also the only character, that was captured by Sheriff Toadster, who did not receive a Toadster Archives entry.
- His glitter rp skin shows Flynn Without his scar
- He makes a surprise appearance in the video game Gregs Deadly Draft in a Banban themed swimming pool.
- his appearance in the cover of Banban 3 shows him having 8 tentacles despite his mural and actual monster form having six tentacles
