1	After a vicious computer virus hijacks Dr. Eggman's nefarious technology, Orbot and Cubot must enter cyberspace in order to get it back.
2
3	!!Tropes featured in this episode:
4
5	* ADayInTheLimelight: This is the second episode that focuses on Orbot and Cubot (though, technically, the first, as most episodes of the show aired out of production order).
6	* AnyLastWords: When Orbot and Cubot find themselves trapped in a room with closing walls and about to be crushed, Orbot asks Cubot this. Cubot proceeds to recite the KonamiCode, which opens up a trapdoor and saves them.
7	* ArtShift: The scenes with Orbot and Cubot inside the video game are presented in a style somewhat reminiscent of 16-bit graphics.
8	* {{Calvinball}}: Orbot and Cubot's game "Rock, Donut, Thursday". It's a game so illogical that it ends up defeating Nominatus.
9	* OmnicidalManiac: Nominatus wants to destroy all lifeforms simply because he can.
10	* SelfDeprecation: Tails gives Orbot and Cubot a video game to play that sounds suspiciously like the original ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1'' game.
11	-->'''Tails:''' Try out this video game. You run, roll, and collect rings as fast as you can.\
12	'''Cubot:''' [[WhoWouldWantToWatchUs Ah, that sounds terrible!]]
13	* RockPaperScissors: Orbot and Cubot have their own version called "Rock, Donut, Thursday". Its rules are nonsensical enough to act as a LogicBomb that defeats Nominatus.
14	* ShoutOut:
15	** This exchange between Orbot and Cubot when they encounter Tails' plane in the video game:
16	--->'''Orbot:''' [[AreYouPonderingWhatImPondering You thinking what I'm thinking?]]\
17	'''Cubot:''' Yeah! What if [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1 the princess is in another castle?]]\
18	'''Orbot:''' [[YouTalkTooMuch Get in the plane!]]
19	** Cubot later recites the KonamiCode, opening up a trapdoor that saves him and Orbot from being crushed into scrap.
