On August 17, 2022, the episode was released early on Disney+.
Synopsis[]
Hamster and Gretel face a half-man-half-horse villain, who loves to party.
Plot[]
Bailey gets a chance to spend the day with Hamster and Gretel after winning a radio contest. Kevin initially advises Gretel against it out of fear that Bailey might recognize her (as she is unaware that her best friend Gretel and superhero Gretel are one in the same), but ultimately concedes when Gretel promises not to do any physical fighting. Thus, they spend their day doing mundane tasks such as rescuing a cat from a tree and recycling. Suddenly, Neighslayer, a human-horse hybrid creature, is caught stealing apples from a local produce stand for a party he is planning later. Gretel tries to talk Neighslayer out of continuing his crime spree, but he refuses and makes off. As Hamster, Gretel, and Bailey chase after Neighslayer and his horse minions, Gretel tries to get into contact with Kevin, but he fails to answer due to watching Yuko Cheerleading Warrior Attack 7 with Fred. Neighslayer then captures Hamster and plots to dip him in acid.
To rescue Hamster, Gretel relies on Bailey's knowledge of horses she acquired from completing a school report about horses recently, and uses peppermints (which she received earlier as a reward for rescuing the cat) to distract the horse minions. Gretel and Neighslayer then break out into a rap battle, during which Gretel is able to free Hamster, who then defeats Neighslayer. When they reunite with Kevin and Fred, Gretel reports that Bailey is now safe at home and that she honored her agreement to avoid physical fighting. The next day, Bailey tells Gretel about her day with Hamster and superhero Gretel, and the two promise that they are still best friends.
