Gretel and Nordle are assigned to work together on a book report, much to their mutual dismay. While arguing about the characters of Larry the Magic Boy and the Grapefruit which is Also Magic, the aliens inadvertently give powers to a scone, which is then dropped into Nordle's backpack by accident. This leads to the two children being followed around by a robot that thinks they have evil powers. Meanwhile, Carolina asks Kevin to take Hamster to the vet, which proves to be difficult due to Hamster's strong fear of the vet. Kevin spends the episode helping Hamster overcome his fear.
Seeking refuge at Nordle's house, the two discover the scone in Nordle's backpack and analyze it with Nordle's radio spectrograph, after which they find that it has powers. Gretel is then introduced to Nordle's father, Professor Exclamation, who has the robot, revealed to be named Tobor, serve Gretel in the kitchen, allowing him to attempt to persuade Nordle to consume the scone and gain evil powers. Gretel uses Tobor's hospitality to her advantage by requesting oat milk, allowing her to rush to find Nordle. She manages to convince Nordle not to eat the scone after declaring her friendship to him, leading to Nordle destroying the scone, ruining Professor Exclamation's plans.
