Summary
An anthology episode about what the gang does when no evil is around.

The Tale of Hobbes (written by Taika Waititi)
Hobbes finds himself very hungry, and after a good deal of searching finds himself unable to procure any tuna. He then realizes that today is grocery day, and as such he takes things into his own paws. Hobbes finds a nearby pond filled with hundreds of fish, and he swiftly devours them. Not too long later, he rests on the riverbed with a noticeably larger stomach. He decides to check if there's any more fish and finds that they're after him, and he barely manages to make it back into the house... upon which Calvin arrives back home with more tuna.

The Tale of Andy (written by Griffin Gluck)
Andy is playing a video game in his, but is interrupted by the phone ringing. On the other end is a Puerto Rican man who wants his opinion on a television program. He gives a heavily sarcastic remark about it, and returns to his game. Shortly afterwards, however, he sees a man outside yelling to himself like a lunatic. He heads outside and finds that the man is actually just holding a conversation on a BlueTooth, giving a small lecture on the stupidity of said device before heading back to his game.

The Tale of Sherman (written by Ty Burrell)
Sherman concocts an experiment to create an intelligent mold, which is successful. Too successful, in fact, as it grows quite big and attempts to attack him! Sherman manages to squash it with a dictionary, creating quite a mess.

The Tale of Dr. Brainstorm and Jack (written by Tom Cruise and Mark Hoppus)
Just an average day in the Brainstorm household: Jack gets some soda and helps Brainstorm stop his hair from burning.

The Tale of Calvin (written by Jackson Kelley)
Calvin waltzes down the street in bright red sunglasses peacefully, when suddenly the ground bursts, revealing three black creatures. Calvin identifies them as parasites that can come to any point in time and space and feed off whatever they first see, thus giving them more energy to travel through time and space. Calvin gushes about them for a bit before realizing they're trying to eat him and escaping. He manages to vanquish them with mustard, as it contains vinegar, which can eat away at interdimensional energy cells.

The Tale of MTM (written by Ben Schwartz)
The MTM is alerted for its annual self-checkup. He tests everything - his megaphone, time travel device, and interdimensional hard drive. The latter, unfortunately, has a huge hole in it, which is repaired very quickly. With nothing better to do, the MTM looks into tomorrow to see what's going on, providing quite a bit of foreshadowing in the process.

The Tale of Sheila and Jacqueline (written by Zoey Deutch and Naomi Watts)
Sheila commands Jacqueline to get down to her lab, as she's invented something that will help her destroy her brother's lab - a powder that transforms plants into vicious killing machines! She tests it on a small red flower, and it grows into a human-like figure, which Jacqueline finds cute. Unfortunately, it can't move from its pot, rendering it useless as a weapon. Nonetheless, Jacqueline takes it into her custody.

The Tale of Socrates (written by Kevin Smith)
Socrates gets ready for a prank-filled day, and focuses on his first target - a small boy no older than eight. However, the kid unexpectedly dodges his first trap by ducking. Socrates is infuriated by this and declares war on him. His next attempt goes similarly awry, and his final attempt appears to work... but then he realizes he caught Calvin instead. Socrates lets him out, at least satisfied that he pranked someone. As Calvin rounds the corner, however, a shadow appears in an alley, watching him...
