The story revolves around a secret organization called the SCP Foundation, which focuses on securing, containing, and protecting anomalous objects and entities. The protagonist, Captain Stromcat, is approached by the director of the Brookhaven SCP site, Leon, to help contain an escaped SCP-BH03, a Euclid-class entity that has the power to "rickroll" people, turning them into Rick Astley.
Captain Stromcat and his team, including Bobo Bear and Benker, embark on a mission to catch SCP-BH03 before sunrise, as its power will spread and turn everyone into Rick Astley. Along the way, they encounter various obstacles, including a school electrician and a young boy who sneaked out of his house.
As the sun rises, SCP-BH03's power takes effect, and the team discovers that everyone in Brookhaven has been turned into Rick Astley. Captain Stromcat meets a character named Beluga, a "rickroll master" with a PhD in rickroll, who helps him learn how to reverse the effect.
With Beluga's training, Captain Stromcat and his team use SCP-BH03 to reverse the rickroll effect, but it doesn't work on one person - the real Rick Astley.
