The narrator, a Minecraft player, attempts to prove the existence of "long-legged Steve," a mythical entity that is said to be a clone of the player. The player tries various methods to clone themselves, including exploiting game glitches and using the new "simulation distance" setting. After multiple failed attempts, the player finally succeeds in creating a clone, but it's just a regular Steve, not long-legged. The clone is stuck in the same position on the map, mirroring the player's movements. In a bizarre twist, the player's computer starts malfunctioning, and they lose control, suggesting that the clone may have gained sentience.
