This cheat will afflict Toons with the Ink Drain debuff, reducing Gag effectiveness by 25% for 2 rounds. For example, a 60 damage Kart Battery will deal 45 damage instead. This cheat will activate at the beginning of the round starting on round 2 and every 4 rounds afterwards. This cheat is identified by Toons being colored gray while under the effects of Ink Drain.

Dialogue
| Opening Cutscene | The Toons enter the office and observe a group of monitors observing Barnacle Boatyard The Land Acquisition Architect flies down behind the Toons "We-ell, look who wandered a little too far in the fog!" The Toons turn around and are surprised "Now I may just give you the benefit of the doubt, and say you must be here to talk about my expansion request?" The Land Acquisition Architect begins to pace back and forth "I don't get why y'all Toons are so headstrong against my land works!" The Land Acquisition Architect stomps back and forth "It's great for the economy, and I do lo-o-o-o-ove the economy!" The Toons react confused "I should have expected as little!" The Land Acquisition Architect turns to leave "Officially, I do have to state that you are not welcome on this here land." The Land Acquisition Architect stops "Wait, I know you." The Land Acquisition Architect turns back around "You wouldn't happen to know my acquaintance down in the Central Oil District, would ya?" The Toons laugh "Think yourself some sorta titanium tough Toon?" Cogs fly down behind the Land Acquisition Architect "I'll break the very ground ya stand on!" The Land Acquisition Architect stomps in place |

The Land Acquisition Architect stomps in place, each one bigger than the last "AHH!" The Toons fall down and get back up "Now tell me mighty quick, is it me or is this situation very much up in the air?" The Land Acquisition Architect looks down, revealing that a giant hole has formed under him "Oh." The Land Acquisition Architect and any remaining Cogs fall down the hole |

Version History
- v1.3.0.4 BETA
- Disabled the flashing light box in the Land Acquisition Architect interior to address a health and safety concern.
- v1.3.0 BETA
- The Barnacle Boatyard and Ye Olde Toontown taskline managers have been renamed to the Land Acquisition Architect and the Public Relations Representative respectively.
- The L.A.A. is added to the game, replacing the D.O.L.A.
- All of the taskline managers have now been given unique head models, updated cutscenes, and new personalities.
- HP values of the Derrick Man, Land Acquisition Architect, and the Public Relations Representative have been rebalanced to more closely fit the intended difficulty curve.
- HP has changed from 130->275.
Trivia
- In the v1.3.0 QA session, the L.A.A. had 185 HP. He also did not have unique voiceclips.
- The L.A.A.'s office is based on Toontown Online's "Cog Penthouse Suite" that was originally seen in Field Offices.
- The L.A.A.'s middle initial and last name reads as "Escrow", which is an agreement between two parties where money or property is kept by a third party until a particular condition is met.
- In a Backstage Blogpost, Enoch (a Clash Crew Member who did significant writing for both the L.A.A. and the D.O.L.D.), stated that he was modeled after a "Texan land mogul, which implied the confidence, position, and sheer passion for land development".
- The original plan for the ending cutscene was for the L.A.A. to slip and fall while stomping.
- The L.A.A.'s design was based off of D.O.L.D., not the other way around.
- The L.A.A's twirls during the marching section were an homage to the Mover and Shake turns in Toontown Online Field Offices.
