- A dare leads Jimmy and pals to stay over night at Retroland to prove once and fall all the existence of the park's phantom/ Not to dissimilar to 1958's 'The Fly', an accident rearranges the bodies and heads of Jimmy and Carl's pet hamster.
- The Phantom of Retroland It is show-and-tell day in Ms. Fowl's classroom. Jimmy brings in a mini model of Foucault's pendulum while telling the class about the physicist. Nick is up next and tells a tale about the Phantom of Retroland, a ghost monster who lives at the local amusement park and eats people during the night around midnight. In the interest of science, Jimmy sets out to disprove this urban myth with the help of his reluctant friends Carl and Sheen. Jimmy activates a hologram to fool his parents into thinking he's home in bed, but it malfunctions causing the hologram image to change to Jimmy playing limbo on the playground, and his parents go out to find him when they find out about it.
Once he meets up with Carl and Sheen, the three of them enter Retroland. They meet the Phantom, who turns out to be Nick in disguise, followed by another Phantom who turns out to be Cindy and Libby in disguise to punish Jimmy for his know-it-all behavior. As they're leaving, they encounter who Jimmy believes to be the real Phantom of Retroland, and he and his friends scream loudly and run for it in fear. This Phantom turns out to be Judy accompanied by Hugh who were there to teach Jimmy a lesson about using his hologram projector to sneak out after bedtime, though soon after they too run away screaming loudly in fear upon encountering the real Phantom of Retroland, thus neither having a happy ending at all.
My Son the Hamster Jimmy's atoms accidentally get switched with Carl's new hamster's so that he has the head of a human boy and the body of Carl's hamster. To make things worse, he gets snatched by an eagle, and Hugh takes the hamster out for quality time; he is unaware of the mishap. Jimmy is eventually saved by Goddard and he lures Carl's hamster back to the lab, where their atoms are rearranged. In the end Sheen finds a lizard and comes up with idea of using Jimmy's pods to switch bodies with it so he can be Lizard Lord. He says "behold my tongue of doom and tremble!" then yells "TREMBLE!" while pointing the lizard at Carl's face causing Carl to scream and run.
