Bochum 2018-[]
CB has just finished his meeting with Greaseball, when Electra and his components arrive. He asks why CB wanted him there, and CB said he wanted to tell him of his plan to whipe out Rusty. Electra is in disbelief and asks why. CB says that despite his friendly demeanor he likes to cheat, and Electra comes to the conclusion that being at the back just gives him time to think of something bad. Electra does a lap around the track as CB sings, but comes back to collect his components, with CB giving him a wave as he goes.
After Dinah cuts ties with Electra, he turns to CB for help. Asking him to be his partner for the final heat. CB says he'll do it for 30K, Electra argues 10K, but they reach a deal at 20K. They shake on it and CB grabs onto Electra as they go to get ready. They get to track for the start of the race and climb to the start. The race then begins, and things go badly as Greaseball, Electra and CB all end up crashing into each other.
During the Mega Mix, Electra will circle CB at the start of the "Whistle at Me" section, before having him hook onto him before leading him to his new spot. Occasionally CB will take Electra's hand before hooking onto him. The two also give their final bows together.
