Thanks to the microbes, the city is cleaned of its trash. Unfortunately, the blobs go overboard and began destroying anything to eat it up. They don't have a mind and can't distinguish between things thrown away and things still in use.

* ''WesternAnimation/TazMania'': In "Nursemaid Taz", Digeri Dingo [[ObfuscatingDisability fakes a foot injury]] in order to get Taz's family to take care of him. They do so, but in ways that exasperate him; Jean makes a home remedy that tastes awful, Molly and Jake bury him in pillows, and Hugh tells him drawn-out stories to get him to sleep. Digeri finally takes the cast off (claiming to have been healed) just to get out of Taz's house, only to fall out a window, [[LaserGuidedKarma breaking his foot for real]] and [[HereWeGoAgain getting stuck in the family's care]].

She tells Chuckie to be more assertive, Tommy to stop telling his friends what to do, Phil and Lil to stop being dirty and disgusting, and Kimi to stop being so happy. Unfortunately for her, the advice she gives the babies works too well. When Chuckie decides to be more assertive, he drives Angelica's car. Angelica begs for the babies to stop him, but they all refuse; Tommy because he's not allowed to tell his friends what to do anymore, Phil and Lil because they're not allowed to get dirty, and Kimi because she takes on a more cool personality.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'': In the episode "Natural Selection", Doctor Curt Connors created a formula based on lizard DNA in the hopes that it would help him grow back his right arm. It worked... and then it turned him into a giant lizard monster that rampaged through the subway, almost killed several people, broke Spider-Man's hand and ''almost ate his son''. Luckily Spider-Man was able to dump the gene cleanser down his throat and bring Doc Connors back... but he lost his right arm again.
** The same goes for Peter Parker in that episode. In order to help Aunt May pay the bills, Peter tries to take pictures of himself as Spider-Man and sell them to the Daily Bugle. After a few failed photo shoots, Peter finally succeeds when he gets pictures of his fight with the Lizard... which everyone at the lab sees as a huge betrayal since they were trying to keep the Lizard thing under wraps. Peter loses his internship, the Connors' respect, and almost loses his friendship with Gwen over it.
