Plot:[]

The episode starts off with Fitz lying in his bed, as he's having dreams about his past. He reminisces about his young daughter and wife. Though, the dream turns into a nightmare, as Fitz gets shot with a tranquilizer dart and a bizarre, shadowy figure appears. Fitz gets a helmet strapped to his head, which lights up and shakes his body. The helmet also makes him scream, possibly in pain. After this, Fitz wakes up to see that a mysterious clock is in his home. He hears a knock on the door, which turns out to be Skillet delivering Mouse a glowing corn dog. In the meantime, the Rectangular Businessman calls Shark at midnight. The square being suggests that they should have an important meeting. After this, the businessman boasts about his wealth. While Shark is still talking to him on the phone, the pink square walks into the room, as Shark asks him "How much does he know?" The screen cuts back to Fitz's house, as the corn dog starts to lead Mouse to a farm that is full of giant, freshly made corn dogs. Mouse drives his jet to the farm and arrives as the farmer is singing a song about his "big ol' fat corn dogs." Meanwhile, the Shark invites the Eye and the Man-Woman to his office so he can show them a slide show about aspirin. Back at the farm, we learn the farmer's name is Roostre and the corn dog Skillet gave Fitz was his "homing dog." Later, Fitz and Roostre have a couple beers while they talk around a campfire. Roostre talks about the No Eye Square Guy to Mouse and then Q109 and CJ Muff, though Fitz has no clue what he's talking about. In Rhoda's Bar, Man-Woman and The Rectangular Businessman are talking to each other, The Peanut Cop comes and the Woman wants to arrest the businessman because of the flirting with her as a man, the cop laughs and says "who knows who I am, here?, does anybody know who I am? because am under arrest", he then uses his gun and shoots his own police hat off. The Eye stays around with the shark. In the meantime, a floating umbrella named the New Guy captures Skillet and takes him to his mysterious building. After Skillet is kidnapped, Fitz hops inside of the jet to get him and go. Though, as he climbs into the jet, he doesn't find his chinchilla friend but a ton of mysterious papers instead. The screen cuts to the New Guy's Warehouse as we see the interior of the building. We see that Skillet is tied up and gagged while the New Guy plays a catchy lounge song and hula hoops. We also see many pictures of Skillet hung up on the walls. Skillet tries to back away but falls over while doing so. The New Guy approaches and starts to hula hoop on top of him. The episode ends with the New Guy's lounge song playing in the background as Skillet closes his eyes.

Notes/Trivia: []

  • This episode is rated TV-14.
  • The first piece of dialogue between Roostre and Mouse was remixed and used in multiple commercials for the 12 oz. Mouse DVD.
  • The Doctor that is holding Baby Mouse in Fitz's dream appears to be an upside down word in yellow letters.
  • Among the things that briefly appear in Fitz's dream, you can see a skull, Black Beast, and the Bug without any pupils.
  • When Fitz is on the beach with his wife and daughter, you can see shark fins in the waters.
  • The words that appear on the paper that Fitz reads says “Dear, Mouse. Goodnight!”
    • An arrow and a tranquilizer dart can be seen below “Dear, Mouse.”
    • The stamp on the letter's envelope is a Clock.
  • When the Rectangular Businessman asks Shark "You've been getting the signals, I trust", the Man-Woman can be briefly seen emitting a loud air horn siren in The Diner. This is a reference to the previous episode "Signals" where the Man-Woman emitted this loud air horn sound.
  • The bird that lands onto the top of Fitz's head can be heard making robotic noises. It also appeared in a 12 oz. Mouse commercial promo.
  • This is the only episode of the first season to not feature Rhoda, even though his bar still appears.
  • Princess Cruiser is credited as "Skillet torture dance" in the credits of the episode, including subsequent episodes that feature the song.
  • Like "Hired" and "Signals", the "Mouse plays cool guitars through loud noisy amps in his basement" sentence appears in the credits. A screen of the Shadowy Figure is seen afterwards.

Errors/Goofs:[]

  • While a close up of Roostre is shown playing his guitar, a small, curved line, that appears to be a line from his arm, is shown on his purple shirt. This could be an error, as his arm isn't even shown in the scene and the line appears for about a second.
