Z Lost Cassette is a teaser for Regarding The Rumors that was uploaded on June 1st, 2024 on MiniToon's Twitter account.
The video from Twitter.
Summary[]
The video opens on a tape recorder, playing audio of Mudson talking to an employee, Benjamin. After the employee training tape hosted by the now ex-tech consultant Ryder Page was released to the public, rumors arose about Ryder being forced into filming the tape, the robots made by PSTM&M being evil, and even Ryder being turned into a robot. Benjamin informs Mudson of this and suggests taking Ryder to court, or asking him to take back what he said. Mudson decides on making a response video debunking these rumors, despite Benjamin telling him responses aren't usually taken well in situations like this. He asks Benjamin to show him the tape, then get the staff to prepare all the equipment to film the response video and the tape ends.

(Tape starts)
Mudson: Alright, Benjamin. What's up?
Benjamin: Okay, so, over the past weekend, we've had some... problems with the company.
Mudson: What kind of problems?
Benjamin: Well, you know Mr. Page, the tech c- sorry, ex tech consultant, who left maybe a week ago?
Mudson: Yes, yes get on with it.
Benjamin: After he left, he somehow got his hands on that employee tape he was filming for us, the one we were gonna show on the first day tour.
Mudson: I'm not seeing the problem here.
Benjamin: Well on that tape, there's a lot of, things, to say the least, that people took in a very wrong way, including the E.E.P.
Mudson: Like?
Benjamin: Well, they thought Mr. Page looked like he was forced into doing it, that he was uncomfortable, that the robots were evil, that we turned Ryder into a robot, all these empty, empty claims.
Mudson: Mm.
Benjaming: I'm just not sure how we should go about this, I mean Ryder has no evidence so, we could take him to court, or we could just ask him to take back what he said.
Mudson: Or we respond.
Benjamin: Hm?
Mudson: We respond to these so-called claims.
Benjamin: Ehh y'know responses are usually never taken well so I'm n-
Mudson: This is my company Benjamin, if you're telling me it is in danger against the public eye, I'm not going to let it stay that way.
Benjamin: I-I get that, but we have to be real here too, it just never works for stuff like this.
Mudson: Show me the tape.
(Benjamin sighs)
Mudson: Then, get the staff to make sure all needed equipment are prepared.
Benjamin: Want me to write the script for you as well?
Mudson: I don't need it.
(Tape ends)

Trivia[]
- The video's name was revealed in a reply to the original tweet, being called "I Uxbc Ljbbnccn". When translated in a Caesar Cypher, the name "Z Lost Cassette" is found, presumably meaning "The Lost Cassette".
- A lot of the symbols featured in the Hidden Ending are seen flashing on the screen throughout the video. When decoded it reveals the word “CYBERZ”, a company originally seen in the fan-game “Piggy: The Lost Book”. This could mean this company is somewhat related to the PSTM&M.
- Throughout the video there are also time stamps that appear when the text glitches. In each time stamp, a blue word appears in the subtitles. When put in order that the time stamps say, the decoded blue word text says “are we the problem”.
- The light flashing is a Morse code that when decoded says “DONT MISS RONALDS PRESENTATION”, which teased the character Ronald that later appeared in Regarding The Rumors.
- The claim about Ryder Page being turned into a robot is also linked the popular "Ryderbot" theory, claiming it’s a rumor that Ryder was turned into a robot at some point.
