It's game night at the Test house, but previous attempts ended in the family fighting. For this one, it's Johnny's turn to decide the game and his choice is to turn the house into a escape room. It doesn't seem like a bad idea until it's revealed he used construction drones that had been infected with a virus, turning the house's obstacles deadly and prompting him, Dukey and the Test sisters to find a way to shut the house down before something bad happens to them or their parents.


Tropes

  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The problems in this episode can be traced back to some Constrcution Drones that turned out evil.
  • Big Ball of Violence: During the flashback of previous game nights, Hugh's gloating on his game night when he was winning prompted the rest of the family to jump him and start a brawl.
  • Hope Spot: Susan and Mary manage to upload an anti-virus into the drones and turn them good. But one of them accidentally hits the self-destruct button that they had threaten to do earlier.
  • The Man Behind the Curtain: Susan and Mary figure the drones are broadcasting in the house and go to their lab to pinpoint their location despite the drones claiming otherwise. It's revealed they were in a hidden panel in the lab the whole time.
  • Shout-Out: To Escape Room (2019)
  • Trash the Set: The house ends up getting blown up, but luckily the new construction drones are more than willing to start fixing it up.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Mary insisted on not destroying the evil drones, which meant that Johnny found and used them to create his escape house.
