Go To

Airdate: October 4 (Along with The Mother of All Evil

Written by Maxwell Atoms and Brett Varon.
Ghastly invents The HCCBDD, a device that she says will give Hector Con Carne ultimate power. However, she declines to reveal the device to Con Carne until the next day. As Con Carne heads out for the day to get ice cream and Ghastly spends the day home alone, Estroy catches word of the HCCBDD and endures a slumber party with Ghastly in order to get his hands on it.

The episode provides examples of:

  • Bait-and-Switch: Ghastly claims near the beginning of the episode that the HCCBDD will help Hector take over the world. Near the end, it's revealed to be just something to help celebrate Hector's birthday.
  • Butt-Monkey: Estroy goes through a lot of abuse while trying to steal the HCCBDD. Skarr also suffers near the beginning and end of the episode.
  • Male Gaze: After Ghastly grows in size and sits on Estroy and his 2 goons, the camera closes in on her butt a few times.
  • Out-of-Character Moment: Despite absolutely hating him, Ghastly lets Estroy have a slumber party with her in this episode.
  • The Reveal: Turns out, underneath Estroy's metal helmet is a face so beautiful that it glows.
