1	--> ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2415565/29/Calvin_Hobbes_The_Series_SEASON_ONE Calvin and Hobbes try to disable the super volcano under Yellowstone National Park.]] However, the evil [[MadScientist Dr.]] [[StupidEvil Brainstorm]] has other ideas.''
2
3	Calvin and Hobbes watch a commercial for a documentary about Yellowstone Park's volcano, and upon questioning his mother explains that there's a super-volcano underneath it that hasn't erupted for a good while. Naturally, Calvin's terrified that it would destroy the Earth.
4
5	Unbeknown to anyone, there is ''another'' secret right underneath Calvin's very city - an ElaborateUndergroundBase belonging to one [[ObviouslyEvil Dr.]] [[MadScientist Brainstorm!]] His newest invention, the Servant Ray, is complete. Unfortunately, it turns out to run on ReversePsychology - it does the opposite of what Brainstorm commands it to do. Yep, the guy's StupidEvil (with emphasis on "stupid"), and his robot Jack will not let this fact go.

7	Nonplussed, he heads to Yellowstone Park to set up their new headquarters and plot to TakeOverTheWorld, and also get a good view of Old Faithful. His "Secret Hideout Seed" works perfectly, but unfortunately he didn't have the foresight to add a ''door'' to it.
8
9	Meanwhile, Calvin and Hobbes are heading to the volcano to freeze it so that it doesn't erupt in his lifetime. Unfortunately, Brainstorm views them as trying to overthrow him, so he traps them in his lab with a TractorBeam. The mad doctor prepares to use his inventions on Calvin.

12	----
13	!!Tropes:
14	* ApocalypseHow: Calvin fears Old Faithful would blot out the sun for more than 50 years and maybe make a new ice age (causing a [[ApocalypseHow/{{Class2}} Class 2]] and eventually a [[ApocalypseHow/Class3B Class 3b]] to [[ApocalypseHow/{{Class6}} Class 6]]).
15	* BreadEggsBreadedEggs:
16	--> '''Calvin:''' That's a dumb name. Why not something interesting? Like Doctor Doom, or Doctor Chaos, or Doctor Chaotic Doom?
17	* BreakingTheFourthWall: Hobbes warns the audience about Calvin messing with a volcano.
18	* CharacterTics: Jack will lean on anything in sight when standing still.
19	* NightmareFuel: Calvin has this reaction InUniverse to the documentary.
20	* ShoutOut:
21	** The manner in which Calvin accidentally throws the MTM out the window, and Susie's reaction, mirror a similar scene in the ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode "Frankendoodle".
22	** Brainstorm wants to make sure that ComicBook/{{Batman}} or ComicBook/SpiderMan don't bust him, to which Jack responds that they wouldn't bother with him.
23	* StuffBlowingUp: The commercial, which startles Calvin.
24	* TractorBeam: Brainstorm uses one on Calvin and Hobbes.
