Dib finally gets tired of constantly failing to expose Zim, so he quits the paranormal and joins his father in "real" science.
Tropes
- Antagonist in Mourning: The whole premise; Zim becomes increasingly apathetic and depressed without Dib around to counter his evil plans.
- Big Stupid Doo Doo Head: To Overly Long Gag levels between a happily reunited Zim and Dib at the end.
- Doomy Dooms of Doom: The title.
- 10-Minute Retirement: Dib quits chasing after Zim to pursue REAL science, only to return to his alien-chasing ways by the end of the episode.
- What Could Have Been: Invader Zim was cancelled before this episode could be produced.
