On the one hand, the whole TV appearance thing worked exactly as he planned! Papyrus got plenty of attention from Wismuth locals, distracted a few of the carnival folks, and sowed plenty of seeds of dread and curiosity for what the Harbingers would do next.
On the other hand, he's gotten the attention of a few of the carnival folks. Some of whom have been chosen by the force of Creation to defend the pillars of this reality, and were ready and willing to call him out and have super-powered fights in the streets. Loud announcements of their intent, flashy transformation sequences, and arguing. Nobody died, havoc and destruction were wrought, and maybe he did a little bit of fleeing to keep working... But, all in all, a familiar kind of fighting.
He sure didn't see his brother coming.
"What--???" he manages to yelp as he's grabbed. It's too much an abrupt surprise to react to besides twisting and flailing out his limbs, hoping to knock himself free.
