Go To

Blossom and Buttercup destroy Schedulebot (because it was "too annoying") and hide it in the ground outside. The Professor wonders who could have done this vile crime while Bubbles becomes a detective in search of the culprits. Blossom and Buttercup do their utmost to keep the truth from coming out.

This episode contains examples of:

  • Amateur Sleuth: Bubbles attempts to get to the bottom of who destroyed Schedulebot. The first person she interrogates is the Professor. The second: her stuffed toy puppy.
  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: When Schedulebot goes into Humongous Mecha mode, it displays claws, heat-seeking missile cannons and a toaster.
  • Big "NO!": Done by the Professor after seeing the wreckage of Schedulebot.
  • Failed a Spot Check: During the fight with Schedulebot, Blossom and Buttercup admit to the Professor that they busted it up and buried it while trying to avoid the heat seeking missiles fired at them. The Professor forces the two before him and tries to explain why Schedulebot is important...unaware that the missiles are closing in behind him. Blossom and Buttercup are forced to cut him off mid-speech and push him out of the way.
  • Hide the Evidence: At the very onset of the episode, Schedulebot appears at the front door with a dent in its head and it finally putters out cold. Blossom and Buttercup admit they clobbered it and buried in the front yard.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: The missiles Destruction Mode Schedulebot fired at Blossom and Buttercup are used to destroy him.
  • Humongous Mecha: What Schedulebot (refurbished by the Professor) turns into after Buttercup presses some random keys in an attempt by her and Blossom to delete its memory of who destroyed it to start with.
  • Sequel Episode: To Road Trippin, the episode in which Buttercup knocked out and buried Scheudlebot in the yard.
  • Who Is Driving?: In an Imagine Spot set up like a detective TV show, Bubbles is seen driving a car with Octi riding shotgun.
  • Who Murdered the Asshole: Blossom and Buttercup's reasoning for destroying Schedulebot.
