"The Bg Bubble- part four of the mole trilogy" is the final part of "The Mole Trilogy" by The Residents. Its plot is about the molehots, the original moles, wanting to make a return. A band called The Big Bubble got the attention of the leader of the Molehots, Kula Bocca, finds out about them. Even though he doesn't like their music, he gets them to represent the molehots. They performed "Cry of the fire", and sung a part of it in the Molehot language. The language was outlawed since the war, leaving the audience shocked. Kula Bocca saw the effect the band had on the people, and falsley sent Ramsey, the lead singer, to prision for speaking in the language. After many protests, they let him go. This is the group's first offical album.
