Timmy gets a good Samaritan streak going for him, by painting a backdrop for a school ballet play directed by Professor Bickles, gifting AJ with a hi-tech PC, and prettying his house's lawn. Somehow, this gets him scolded for not following everything to the letter. Angry that no one appreciates his good deeds, Timmy wishes ''he was never born''. Now out of everyone's life, Timmy decides to see he impact he caused to the world... only to find out everyone benefits from Timmy not existing. Due to how wishes work, Jorgen von Strangle is the only one that recognizes Timmy, who shows him how nice the world is without him before eventually trying to [[{{Retgone}} erase him out of existence]].
