Clue 2: Kefka, Ansem and Frank Fly are all examples of this.
Clue 3: TVTropes is your best friend here.
Answer and Explanation
Answer: Sequential Bosses/span>
Explanation: Tro u pe, when read quickly, sounds like trope, which brings to mind TVTropes, a website famous for its collection of tropes. Kefka (Final Fantasy), Ansem (Kingdom Hearts), and Frank Fly (Earthbound) are all examples of Sequential Boss. Since we have more than one character, the trope name has to, therefore, be plural as well.
Summary of Receipt
62 (Mike) intercepts a transmission from Astoria. It mentions Webber and his defection to the Dark, and seemingly asks Hotel to intervene. It also mentions something called ‘NETZACH’, linked to the Zulus. Also Astoria apparently worked with the Twice Third Temple.

CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT FROM */2*/19
MANAGER 62
RECEIPT: ABOZOFROMBRAVO01
STATUS: OPEN
Heyo itsa me, 62 here once again with a salty little secret intercepted from A23. Considering what we now know about him, I’ve been keeping my eyes open for anything from either the Bravo Division or anything mentioning Agent Webber. I finally found something, though it’s pretty heavily highlighted. What I can gather from it is Agent Webber was working by himself, or, maybe I should say, he was working with “the Dark,” a rogue group of demons, elders, and other sinister entities from around the Flip and Otherside. I’m sure you’ve all heard about them to some degree by now. The fake Cafe and Diner in Florida has been dealing with them pretty much this whole time. In any case, Agent Webber, A.K.A. “Duplicity,” was working for Umbra, the head of the Dark. Not sure if this means Duplicity was an official member of the Dark or not. To be honest, I don’t know how any of their organization works. That’s a question for the Floridians.
What I do know is what is left uncensored in this A23 doc. You can draw your own conclusions about it, but this seems to be the gist. However, there is A LOT we don’t know. Could it be another Twice Third Temple situation where the Astorians are working with the Dark? Probably. Sure seems like something they’d do.
