This week’s Hamster & Gretel focuses a lot on family, even ushering out the normal villain-of-the-week idea in one half of the episode to display the vibrant in between Gretel and her Mother.
The Litigator vs. The Luchador
Carolina’s sibling is concerning check out, and the kids are thrilled to see Tia Melissa however Carolina is stressed out. To make matters even worse, previously, a supervillain we’ve already seen in the series, The Luchador, has actually broken out of prison and is on the loose in the city.
When Melissa gets to your house, she fasts to provide the niece and nephew the present of money however can’t remain for supper, she has essential lawyer-related business to look after. Upsetting Carolina, she likewise notifications that her sibling’s voice got expensive when explaining where she was going, so undoubtedly she is lying. Dave and Carolina go undercover to examine her real strategies.
Meanwhile, the kids are seeing the news and discover that The Luchador is on the loose, and are now setting out to stop him. Fred would be an excellent resource for help too, however she is inhabited as she is a huge fan of Wrestling and is remaining at home to enjoy the huge match. Coincidentally, all indications indicate the huge match being precisely where The Luchador is heading to recover his belts.
Dave and Carolina are going throughout town and notification Melissa packing up on carbohydrates at a close-by restaurant and purchasing expensive trousers at the expensive trousers store. Something is awry. Also, there’s a sly Perry the Platypus referral. So that’s cool too.
Pretending to be a Canadian Podcast host to get a media badge to go into the arena, Kevin gets the help of Fred through phone to assist while Gretel disguises herself as the strange complete stranger who accompanies him to head within and handle The Luchador, who has actually now changed another wrestler to attempt and win his belts back.
As the Luchador exposes himself (and weaponizes the referee, taking him out of the video game), Dave and Carolina have actually tracked Melissa to the arena, and it is quickly revealed that she is completing as The Litigator, who will be handling The Luchador.
Gretel (in camouflage) uses to Tag Team with her and as The Luchador almost gets Melissa, tags in to continue the battle. While Melissa is recuperating, Carolina actions in with words of motivation despite the fact that the reality now comes out, and provides Melissa not just an increase of self-confidence, however utilizes her nursing abilities to pop her arm back into location. Now, Melissa leaps in with a chair and handles the Luchador, and she and Gretel utilize their 15 seconds of changing out time to continually assault The Luchador with different furnishings products, consisting of however not restricted to (in my finest fumbling voice) A SECTIONAL.
Obviously the set win, just due to the fact that Kevin disguises himself as a brand-new ref and makes the call, and the Luchador is captured as soon as again. Back at home, everybody questions if they’ll ever experience that “mysterious stranger” as soon as again.
Strawberry Festival
It’s time for a bit of mother-daughter and father-son bonding, and while Dave and Kevin are going to repair some things at an elderly occupant’s apartment or condo, Carolina and Gretel are going to head over to select berries at the Strawberry celebration that got here in the area. Except, it’s not really berry selecting. It’s an event of Jeff Strawberry, a stuntman who survives on the edge and has almost passed away 60 times. As such, the celebration is filled with insane excitement trips and demolition derbies, each offering the adrenaline rush and action that makes folks like Gretel feel alive.
On the opposite end, Kevin and Dave get to the next-door neighbor’s house and are thrilled to start on the repair work, seeming like manly guys who are prepared to utilize their tools. However, the sweet next-door neighbor uses the kids some tea and treats them to an extreme romance including her love in France with Andre. And she never ever discovered his surname!
At the celebration, Carolina and Gretel remain in a demolition derby themselves, and don’t do much as Carolina drives around the arena with care and ease, letting the damage occur around them. As she is looking under the car to find out the clutch, the enduring trucks are poised to assault the set and Gretel triggers her powers and levitates themselves in the truck to safety and win the competitors. The commentator mentions, much to Gretel’s irritation, that they won by doing definitely nothing at all. The reward? A packed variation of Jeff Strawberry himself.
Feeling down, Gretel and her mama pick up treats when close by, Jeff Strawberry is at a table and begins choking on a strawberry. While Gretel is attempting to find out how to save him, Carolina, being a nurse, carries out the heimlich maneuver which starts a domino effect of the fruit being released from mouth to mouth, triggering choking through a relatively big portion of celebration guests.
After everybody is advised to keep their mouths shut so this stops occurring, the choking stops, and everybody (consisting of Gretel) acknowledges Carolina as being a real hero to all, even Jeff Strawberry who autographs the luxurious with his similarity.
Back at their home, we are teased that Jeff Strawberry is now a part of the family, however perhaps he isn’t. Or is he? I think he left so that might be the last we see of Jeff Strawberry for a while. Were you anticipating some type of extremely bad guy to appear in this one? I was too, however alas it didn’t happen and makes this half of the episode an unusual workout in character development however sort of an uncomfortable suitable for the remainder of the series.
