[edit] Episode recap

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Roy, Booker and Sheldon invite Orson do go worm hunting with them, but Orson declines because he is reading a mystery novel (as well as about to eat a pie that Lanolin baked him for lunch). The mystery portrays Orson as Agent Double Oh Orson, and his boss W (Wade) informs him that Agent Double Oh Bo was assigned to retrieve the “top-secret, highly experimental, thermonuclear exploding grelbin device”, but he has disappeared. W further states that Bo was last seen at the Casino de Barnyard, and he infers that the disappearance is the work of Orson’s archenemy, Pinfeather (Roy).

Orson goes to the casino, where he meets Pinfeather dining with his date, Lanolin. After several of Pinfeather’s traps to harm Orson fail, Orson then suggests that he has proof that Pinfeather stole the grelbin device. Pinfeather responds by getting rid of Orson via a trap door; then he kidnaps Lanolin and leaves.

Orson manages to get to his car, and with the help of W’s tip, he goes to Pinfeather’s hideout to look for him. Lanolin then appears and convinces Orson to follow him because Bo is her brother and she knows where he is. They find Bo in a freezer, and he tells him that the grelbin device is somewhere in the hideout and will detonate any minute.

At this point, the story is interrupted when Booker and Sheldon accuse Roy of swiping all but two worms from their worm hunt. Orson, still caught up in the story, concludes that the grelbin device is in one of the milk cans near Roy, Booker and Sheldon. He calls Roy “Pinfeather” before he quickly one of the cans and throws it out the window, expecting it to explode. Booker and Sheldon look out the window and discover the rest of their worms crawling out of the can, and the initial two worms follow suit. Orson then takes his pie and chases after Roy, and Booker and Sheldon realize that he’s caught up in a book again.
