The KikoRiki are doing their usual activities, until Dokko invites everyone for a new fascinating experiment. As everyone's up, Dokko sets up an introduction, telling everyone that they'll be discussing Albert Einstein (as today is his birthday, March 14) and his most famous equation, E=mc2. Krash asks why is this equation important, as Dokko begins with its first letter, E, which stands for "energy". The importance of energy is that it can never disappear, as new energy always appears from nature. As an example, Pin brings up Bibi's battery, as even when he's wasting his own energy, it always turns into another form of it. Then, Dokko moves on to the letter M, which is "mass". An impatient Barry quickly sums up the lecture into the universe being divided in both mass and energy, as he wants to leave.

However, Dokko corrects him on this one, stating that both energy and mass are actually one and the same, and are interchangeable with each other. In the end, Dokko talks about C, which stands for the "speed of light", explaining that it's the fastest thing in the universe, and literally nothing can run faster or reach it. It turns out to be the point of the experiment, as Dokko plans to travel in time to the next day, due to the fact that, unlike light, time is relative, and one can do anything with it. With everything finally set, the crew begins to increase their speed as they start traveling in time to the next day. As they do it, they end up on Earth, which has been completely flooded due to Barry leaving the Iron Nanny on, as it digged through the Earth and flooded everything in sight.

Tropes:

  • Art Shift: This is one of the rare episodes to be animated by Atria Studio instead of Petersburg Animation Studio.
  • How We Got Here: The opening scene of the episode shows the result of Dokko's experiment, with the explanation coming later in the episode.
  • No Plot? No Problem!: The entire episode is solely dedicated to Dokko explaining Albert Einstein's equation, with nothing of value really happening. In fact, the whole point of the lecture is only shown near the episode's end, and even then its consequences are disastrous.
  • Shout-Out: The title of the episode is a reference to a fairy tale Sweet Porridge.
