* FurnitureAssemblyGag: The Dwarfers try to build a "rejuvenation shower" which [[LongevityTreatment would have made themselves]] younger. Problem is that it's a Swedish self-assembly. They do get it set up but the Cat complains that there is still a lot of leftover parts, which ends up turning it into a TimeMachine which transports them to 23AD.

After an attempt to assemble a do-it-yourself rejuvenation shower goes wrong and strands the dwarfers on Earth in the Iron Age, they are forced to hike all the way to India to retrieve a lemon to create the battery they need to fuel their return to their own time and place. Along the way, they have a fateful encounter with a certain A-list historical figure.

* TheReveal: Jesus isn't "Jesus of Nazereth", he's Jesus of ''Caesarea'', a completely normal guy and not his more famous namesake at all.
