Gretel helps Nordle with locating Professor Exclamation, since he's still missing [[Recap/HamsterAndGretelS1E45TwoGirlsAGuyAndTheCouncilOfDum since their previous encounter]], and Nordle misses him. This eventually leads them to a creepy, abandoned doll factory filled with riddles. Meanwhile, Hamster, Kevin and Fred impose a challenge on themselves who can survive the longest without electricity.

!!Tropes:
* BandOfBrothers: As with previous appearances, Nordle is rather cold to Tobor and only sees him as a nuisance, but that changes when, after Nordle fails to answer what his birthday is, Tobor sacrifices himself to [[GoThroughMe protect Nordle from oncoming lasers]], as Nordle then realizes how Tobor is like a much nicer father.
* BrilliantButLazy: Without electricity, Hamster, Kevin and Fred accomplish various things within three hours they would normally not do: Fred completes a novel, Kevin measured the Earth diameter using a pendulum and a plate of mustard, and Hamster had been meditating the whole time, just reaching enlightenment. The three are also about to solve cold fusion when Carolina arrives and turns the lights back on; as soon as she turns on the TV, Hamster, Kevin and Fred become lazy again and join her on the couch.
* TheHilarityOfHats: Gretel and Nordle find [[SignatureHeadgear Professor Exclamation's lost hat]], and discover that he got it from a peculiar hat shop that sells punctuation-themed hats.
* ItWasWithYouAllAlong: Nordle spent the whole time looking for his dad, but when Tobor protects him from a flurry of destructive lasers, Nordle realizes that the one who cared for him was Tobor all along. After Tobor auto-repairs himself, Nordle accepts Tobor as his father figure.
* ShoutOut: One {{Idiosyncratic Wipe|s}} reveals that the person who called Hamster and sent him pics is none other than [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Candace Flynn (and her friend Stacy)]].
