During (forced) spring cleaning, Kevin, Hamster and Gretel are made aware of a bank robbery by a supervillain named the Nightmarionette: a former neuroscientist with self-esteem issues, who uses a staff that can read minds with electromagnetic waves in order to project hyper-realistc holograms of anyone's greatest fears. Gretel falls victim to this, and so Kevin and Fred decide to help Gretel overcome her greatest fear (a scorpion with a toaster for a head) by using immersion therapy.
