Synopsis[]
After Wander comes down with a cold, he depends on Sylvia to take on his many duties helping others.
Plot[]
Sylvia awakens one morning to discover that Wander has not awoken before her. She sees that he is sick, yet he still wants to help people, as is his nature, but Sylvia insists that he get some rest. When she goes out to help make him feel comfortable, he cannot resist the urge to help her help him. After catching him numerous times getting out of bed in an effort to help her, Sylvia finally puts him in a hammock and simply asks what needs to be done. Wander tells her that it is "a tall order", but she accepts whatever his morning routine is.
Sylvia must feed "all" the locals, scratch behind Buddy's ear, hit the snooze button on Hater's alarm clock (three times), change Huckleberry Knucklehead's diaper, heighten Peepers' boots, feed Awesome's tigrexes, mop the floor at the quick stop from "The Nice Guy", toss anything that does not have a name on it on Hater's ship, act as a volleyball coach for the Watchdogs, return a missing sock (which is actually Wander's), and water Dominator's cactus in her guest bathroom (which Wander claimed to have left one since their last meeting with her). When Sylvia goes to do the last one, Wander realizes that he may have dreamed it. Wander insists that there is one more item on the list: deliver snickerdoodles to Ms. Myrtle. Sylvia promises to do so, but accidentally leaves the box of cookies behind.
Sylvia arrives at the home of (or rather body of) Ms. Myrtle, a giant immortal turtle, who threatens to destroy the universe. Wander, who had slowly grown more diseased throughout the episode, forces himself out of bed to help deliver the cookies to Ms. Myrtle and rescue Sylvia. Upon arriving, he is surprised to find Sylvia and Ms. Myrtle happily having tea together. Ms. Myrtle tells Wander that when Sylvia told her what happened, she understood and says that he needs to sometimes let other people help. She uses her powers to cure Wander who falls asleep. Sylvia presents the cookies for Ms. Myrtle, but she admits that she does not like snickerdoodles and tells her to get rid of them or else she will destroy the universe.
