*Poppy Playtime Chapter 4* is a rollercoaster of emotions. Just when players feel safe at Safe Haven, they soon realize they've been tricked. Despite overcoming Yarnaby and the Doctor, our heroes face new challenges.

The Prototype, aware of Poppy's plan to use explosives, relocates them to destroy Safe Haven. This leads to a catastrophe that turns Doey aggressive towards the player. After defeating him, you'll encounter Kissy Missy and Poppy in hiding.

Here comes the major plot twist: Ollie, believed to be a trusted ally, is actually The Prototype. With his ability to change his voice and mimic others, he deceives Poppy into thinking he's Ollie.

Although Poppy portrays The Prototype as the villain, they have a history. During the chase with Doey, you can find a VHS tape showing Poppy crying after the hour of joy. The Prototype had promised they would leave the factory, but that never happened.

The Prototype convinced Poppy that they couldn't leave because they were turned into monsters, and humans wouldn't accept them. Despite her hatred for the factory, Poppy eventually agreed with The Prototype. This led her to plan to destroy the factory to prevent more people from becoming toys.

However, The Prototype, always one step ahead, knows about Poppy's plan. Using his connection as Ollie, he thwarts it and threatens to lock Poppy up again. The reason for keeping Poppy hostage remains unclear, but the threat is enough to make her flee in fear.

What’s the Deal With the Laboratory in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 4?

With Poppy gone, The Prototype decides to destroy the player's hiding spot. Although Kissy Missy tries to save us, her injured arm snaps off. We find ourselves in the lab, surrounded by poppy flowers used in the factory's experiments.

This lab is likely the final area in the *Poppy Playtime* series. Poppy mentioned that The Prototype hides here with the orphaned children. To save them and destroy the factory, we'll need to defeat the final boss and navigate through the lab's security.

Players will also face Huggy Wuggy, who seems determined to devour us. This is probably the same Huggy Wuggy from *Poppy Playtime Chapter 1*, recognizable by his wounds and bandages. Despite his injuries, he remains a deadly threat.

That's everything you need to know about the ending of *Poppy Playtime Chapter 4*. We're inching closer to the climax, where defeating the final boss is crucial for escaping this nightmare.
