Last Resort is a location in OMORI. It is the fourth story-related area, accessible on Two Days Left and later.
This area connects to the Deep Well, Underwater Highway, and Ghost Party.

Overview

The Last Resort is the main area in Deep Well, and it can be accessed after Omori overcomes his fear of drowning. From the outside, it appears to be a hotel shaped like a pirate ship. The inside consists of a large lobby, a basement floor, and four higher floors.

Story

All Routes

After Omori arrives in Deep Well on Two Days Left, he takes a taxi to the Last Resort. There, he finds Kel outside, who tells him that everyone at the playground works here now, as they were tricked into signing contracts. (In the Hikikomori Route, Kel says this at the North Lake and then accompanies Omori to Deep Well.) Kel's job is to point people to the resort, but he appears unsatisfied with his job and tells Omori about his plan to get Hero and Aubrey to quit. The two friends then talk to Mari, who's sitting outside the resort. She greets Omori and reminds Kel of the friends' mission to find Basil.

Once Omori and Kel enter Last Resort, planning to head to the 5th floor (where Aubrey works), Kel tells Omori that he needs to go to the bathroom before they use the elevator. The two of them go inside the boys' bathroom and then are free to use the elevator after Omori makes Kel wash his hands. Kel greets Mari in the elevator, attempts to go to the 5th floor, and then realizes that he needs a Cool Key Card in order to do so, as his was confiscated after he lost it too many times.

Finally, the two friends make their way up to the 5th floor after finding the keycard on the 2nd floor. However, they run into Berly, who tells them that, as the head of security, she can't let them through: the boss doesn't want any disturbances. Luckily, after Kel lies about Omori wanting to a job, she agrees to let them through as long as they give her a Bottled Water.

In the next room, Omori and Kel find Aubrey, who's working as a secretary. She seems frazzled, as her phone is ringing off the hook and she's facing constant scheduling conflicts. At first, she tells Kel to go away, but he helps to calm her down. Once she sees Omori, her mood improves further and she realizes that she wants to leave. Unfortunately, Mr. Jawsum calls right at that moment. Kel greets him and tells him he's quitting and bringing Aubrey with him, so Mr. Jawsum gets angry and asks for them both to come to his office.

When the three friends take the elevator up to Mr. Jawsum's office, he restates the terms of his contract: the friends have agreed to work for him for the rest of their lives without pay. He explains that a contract is a promise, and Kel agrees that a promise shouldn't be broken. Aubrey, however, isn't so easily fooled, and she says that the friends' promise to find Basil means more than the contract. Mr. Jawsum decides to allow her and Omori to leave, as long as Kel goes with them, and the trio is about to exit when Kel realizes they have forgotten about Hero.

Kel asks to bring Hero with them as well, which Mr. Jawsum thinks is a joke. He explains that Hero is his best employee, and at that moment, Hero walks into the office. Hero lists all the work he has done for the fundraiser, clearly having gone above and beyond, and Mr. Jawsum praises him, telling him he might even consider paying him one of these days. At this point, Hero notices Kel, Aubrey, and Omori. He greets them normally, but they both become disappointed as they realize he has forgotten about Basil. Hero comes to his senses, however, and says that the four friends need to get out of the Last Resort. Mr. Jawsum objects, talking about the contract, and Hero says that his friends are more important than a measly piece of paper. Mr. Jawsum takes this as a sign of disrespect; he becomes angry and calls in Gator Guys, triggering a boss fight.

The friends are able to defeat Mr. Jawsum and his employees, but instead of letting them leave, he calls in his other ultimate employee: Pluto. Pluto takes on a stronger form, seemingly destroying the office and triggering a second boss fight. After the friends defeat him and Mr. Jawsum's office returns to normal, Pluto attempts to finish them off for good, but Mr. Jawsum stops him before he can do anything more. Finally, he reluctantly agrees to let the friends go.

Once the four friends have returned to the Last Resort's lobby, they resume their search for Basil. They decide to ask the resort's residents if anyone has seen Basil, but they realize they need to draw a picture of him so people will know what he looks like. Unfortunately, they can't fully remember or agree on what he looks like, so the plan is scrapped when the drawing turns out terribly. Instead, Hero suggests that they search around the Deep Well, and Omori and the others exit the Last Resort.

Hikikomori Route

On One Day Left, Omori and his friends can return to Mr. Jawsum's office to find it in disrepair. Mr. Jawsum explains that business has not been doing well ever since Hero left, and he has decided to retire from the Last Resort and pursue his other business ventures. He gives Hero a Giant Check (which can be used in the Feed Humphrey sidequest) and tells him that he wants Hero to take over the Last Resort. He then changes into a stereotypical tourist outfit, proclaiming that it's time for him to take a vacation. With that, he leaves. Under Hero's leadership, Omori's friends are now allowed to return to the playground, and Hero is addressed as "boss" or "bossman" by the resort's employees.
