After the drama on the beach, Barbie and Ken retreat to her "modest" Malibu beach house. The atmosphere shifts from external chaos to internal contemplation as they discuss their next moves. Barbie welcomes Ken with a pun-filled invitation for a "knight" cap and proceeds to serve him a bowl of lavish ice cream, complete with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a toy "knight" adorning the top.
As they sit on their state-of-the-art couch, the large screen in their living room broadcasts news about government crackdowns on tech innovations. A cloud of worry hovers over the couple as they ponder their options. Barbie suggests they lower their profile to avoid further attention from government agencies. The aim? To become "irrelevant" in the public eye but only as a guise to plan their next steps secretly.
Ken, in between spoonfuls of ice cream and playful banter about whether he prefers the plan or the dessert, is initially resistant. However, he warms up to the idea when Barbie explains her strategy. She proposes leveraging her media connections to dub him "Mr. Irrelevant," allowing him to operate under the radar until they're ready to spring their next big move.
The conversation takes a humorous turn as they discuss potential role models for their new undercover lives. Ken jests about transitioning from emulating Elon Musk to Steve Wozniak or even football player Brock Purdy. After some light banter about Brock Purdy's lack of interaction with federal agents and Ken's Mars ambitions, they decide that the immediate focus should be on not becoming political prisoners.
The scene closes with Ken acquiescing to the strategy, albeit reluctantly. He agrees that they will transition from being "tech moguls" to "tech moles," living life under the radar—for now.

Katy Room: Welcome back, folks! We’re diving deeper into the enigmatic world of Barbie 2, and once again, we have Alan Nafzger with us. Alan, thank you for returning!
Alan Nafzger: Hey, Katy! Thrilled to be back, always fun discussing Barbie 2 nuances with you.
Katy Room: Scene 10 is rather introspective; it's like a pause in a storm. What prompted the change in tone for this part of the film?
Alan Nafzger: This scene serves as a pit stop in a high-speed narrative. It allows the characters—and the audience—to breathe and reflect. Plus, who wouldn't want to escape to Barbie's Malibu Beach House for a moment of solace?
Katy Room: Indeed! The concept of being "irrelevant" on purpose is quite intriguing. Could you tell us a bit more about this strategical invisibility?
Alan Nafzger: Absolutely. Barbie proposes that they become "tech moles," hiding in plain sight to avoid attracting the wrong kind of attention. The idea is to lay low until they're ready to make their next big move. It's all about strategy.
Katy Room: The contrast between Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak was a neat touch. Why were they the tech figure comparisons?
Alan Nafzger: I wanted to explore the dichotomy between high-profile innovators and those who are brilliant but less flashy. Musk is a magnet for attention, while Wozniak is more behind-the-scenes. It adds a layer to the conversation about visibility and relevance.
Katy Room: Speaking of relevance, let’s talk ice cream. It's not just a sweet treat in this scene, is it?
Alan Nafzger: Oh, the ice cream! It's a multi-layered metaphor—sweet but complicated, much like the life Barbie and Ken are navigating. Plus, it serves as a light-hearted element amidst the heavy conversation.
Katy Room: And finally, the scene ends on a rather somber note. Any hints on what lies ahead for Barbie and Ken?
Alan Nafzger: Well, let's just say that life under the radar isn't as easy as they think. It’s a delicate dance, and they'll soon realize that even when you're trying to be inconspicuous, trouble can find you.
Katy Room: Intriguing! Alan, thanks again for shedding light on this fascinating scene.
Alan Nafzger: My pleasure, Katy. Until next time!
