Urpgor invents a superweapon that can shoot webs. This machine manages gets past the Wutts and Noops and steals The Dreamstone. What a struggle it must have been to stop Zordrak from going to the Planet of Doom.

!!Tropes featured in the episode:

* CurbstompBattle: Administered ''by'' the Urpneys this time round, using the Spidermobile to easily dispose of the entire Wut army and most of the civilians of the Land of Dreams.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Not only does Urpgor invent a device impenetrable by even the Wuts' magic, Blob and his men handle it with competent precision. After being stopped a second time round, the heroes are reliant on well timed luck to stop Zordrak in the end.
* ThrowTheDogABone: Blob and his men for once get through the episode pretty clean, easily getting past the heroes' forces, with Zordrak and Urpgor taking the fall when the stone is taken back, much to Frizz and Nug's amusement.
* TheWorfEffect: Pildit makes sure to state the army's globes are on full power before the Spidermobile {{No Sell}}s their barrage and takes them out with ease. In fairness, lasting until the penultimate episode without falling to this trope is pretty impressive for a supporting character in a nineties cartoon.
