Part one of the two-part finale. The dads execute their plan as the final battle ensues.

## Intro

This intro has the dads entering a conference call in order to discuss the logistics of carpooling to the soccer game that began the season.

We also learn there was a 5th dad named Rupert Gunderson who had an RV well stocked for any inconveniences that could have arisen from the trip, including a generator, food, beds, and cooking materials. However, the crew didn't like him and decided to that Darryl's van (The Beast) instead.

Normal Oak: His favorite pizza is pepperoni because it has pep in the name, but because he is vegan he scrapes off the pepperoni and the cheese and just eats the tomato sauce and bread.

Season 2 Episode 42 "Spirit Hallow Peen"

The teens sneak into heaven with an unorthodox plan.

## Teen Facts

Taylor Swift: He’s not a fan of a flying dog (Rogue), because he had put all of his heart into walking-up-the-walls cat. He thinks that a flying dog is objectively better on multiple fronts, and it’s not fair, so he’s making hating flying dogs his whole personality.

Lincoln Li-Wilson: He’s going through a lot, and has changed his outlook of what he wants for the rest of his life. He doesn’t want to be a professional soccer player because ‘Boss Kicks doesn’t play soccer. Boss Kicks owns soccer teams’. His first step is to become really rich by becoming one of the best soccer players in the world.

Normal Oak: His first venture into the world of business was also his first hobby; selling essential oils. He got his first taste at his mom’s vegan ice cream shop because they used stuff like peppermint extract. He definitely uses way too much and has probably burned out his sinuses.

Scary Marlowe: She has never really believed in heaven, and believes only in the great polytheistic religion of Ancient Rome, because ‘all of the gods and goddesses were just as fucked up as she is, and they were really hot’.

The teens barely have time to get their feet on solid ground before dodging BULLETS? And uh oh is that the Black Parade??

## Teen Facts

Taylor Swift: He always wanted to have an anime style hot spring in his backyard, because he believed it would make ladies come over. His mom told him he could have one koi fish in an aquarium. (He does have an unfinished series on his YouTube channel about building his own Japanese anime style hot springs, and the only video is him breaking the ground).

Lincoln Li-Wilson: He wears contacts (soft contacts), and his eyes are very itchy right now because he hasn’t changed them in awhile.

Normal Oak: The first time he tried drinking, he was 10 years old, and he tried Henry’s bottle of ‘Grandpa Booze’, which is Henry’s home-brewed hard kombucha. He took one sip and was throwing up for a day.

Scary Marlowe: She likes spicy food. When she goes to a Thai restaurant, she asks for medium spicy, but sometimes that’s a little too spicy.

What are clearly gnomes and dwarves and halflings—

Normal Oak: All of his shoes are Heelys, but he’s too scared to ‘ride the tiger’. He doesn’t know if he’s got what it takes to Heely.

Scary Marlowe: When Terry Jr first moved into her mom’s house, he introduced his recipe for Potatoes au gratin. She doesn’t like any type of potato, refused to eat them, and called them Potatoes au rotten. One night, she snuck down and tried it and thought it was delicious.

Season 2 Episode 37 "Cut My Life Into Pizzas"

The teens and the dads cross paths as they move to find the final anchor.

## Teen Facts

Taylor Swift: Freddie was planning on changing Taylor’s voice this episode, but given the previous episode’s events, decided that it seemed inappropriate. So while jumping off of the building last episode, he swallowed a bug which delayed his voice drop.

Lincoln Li-Wilson: He tried the AYSO once (or the American Foot Kids Association in this world), but both Marco and Grant got red cards and were kicked out of the game. In solidarity, he kicked the ball really angrily and walked off with them. This got him a red card as well.

Normal Oak: For his 6th birthday, his grandmother Mercedes Oak-Garcia gave him a beautiful diamond encrusted piece of jewelry. He kept it on every day, and recently realized that it was worth exactly 300 gold pieces, and used it to cast revivify on Brad Schmegan.

Scary Marlowe: She doesn’t really like poetry, she hasn’t read a lot. But her favorite poem is called ‘Monsters I’ve Met’ by Shel Silverstein: *"I met a ghost, but he didn't want my head. He only wanted to know the way to Denver. I met a devil, but he didn't want my soul. He only wanted to borrow my bike a while. I met a vampire, but he didn't want my blood. He only wanted two nickels for a dime. I keep meeting all the right people at all the wrong times."* She thinks it’s cute that the monsters weren’t monsters when she met them.

> Sparrow had previously drawn the Doodler and it had become the Westrock Elementary School soccer team mascot. Neverwinter, where Lark and Sparrow were taken, was home to the Cult of the Doodler, which hoped to summon Doodler and bring about the end of the world. When Lark and Sparrow arrived in Neverwinter they took on the guise of the Lord of Chaos, who according to the cult could summon the Doodler by drawing the blood of an unsung hero.

Neverwinter

> **Anthony:** *You eventually come upon the city of Neverwinter. So you see a drawbridge and on the drawbridge you can see that there used to be a, what seemed to be like a red and gold flag but it's behind what is currently there which is a very large, very lovingly rendered illustration of the Doodler. The mascot of West Rock Elementary School.*

Season 1 Episode 13 "Terry Jr. and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Dad"

The dads come to terms with their actions and try and salvage Ron's relationship with Terry Jr. Darryl disguises his voice, Henry makes a phone call, Glenn grabs some goods, and Ron gains insight into the ways of the forest.

## Intro

This episode's intro parodies the podcast "Radiolab" and features "Jad Abumrad" and "Robert Krulwich" interviewing "Dougal Hornbuck" (voiced by Jimmy Wong) about the Astral Plane. It also feature's the merchant Shinji who sold the dads the Fanny Pack of Holding in Season 1 Episode 11.5 "Bonus Dungeon Sidequest Misadventure".

## Summary

After the dads defeat Terry Sr., Terry Jr. smashes an orb the ground and turns into mist and flees to the tower.

Henry calls Mercedes Oak-Garcia and tells him he is stuck in another world. He then asks her to get together their Wiccan friends and witches to see if they can make a portal.

Ron is angry that Terry Jr. is angry at him and doesn't want him as a father. Erin O'Neil sees her chance to take over the town has finally come, and starts rousing her trees. Darryl thinks she is ridiculous, because trees cannot really be "her children". He strikes a tree with his axe, leading to Erin and the trees starting to attack. The dads flee to the van. Glenn steals one of the books Erin had borrowed from The Library. They grab the Vampire Girl and flee to the tower.

They wake up the girl, who is no longer a vampire spawn. She introduces herself as Clementine Crimadinick, and tells the dads that there are more children at the basement of the tower. The dads find the children and free them. They also find three chests, two of which contain mimics. Ron throws frogs at the chests to discover which chest is a real chest, and the dads find The Belt.

The dads then make their way upwards towards Terry Jr. and discover he is attempting to create a portal to the Astral Plane.

Initially, Lark and Sparrow are equally rambunctious, but while Sparrow is convinced by Henry to be kind and loving, Lark becomes more hardened over Season 1.

## History

### Season 1

Lark and Sparrow are first introduced punching a tree in their yard, while screaming power. Henry Oak encourages them for attempting to deal with their aggression, but tries and fails to dissuade them from harming the tree. They are picked up by Darryl Wilson like the other dads and their sons, and are pulled through a portal into the Forgotten Realms.

Lark and Sparrow are captured by the Lance and sold to Neverwinter. In Neverwinter they discover that the city worships Sparrow's creation, The Doodler. They are received as emissaries of the Doodler, and standing on each others shoulders don the guise of the Lord of Chaos.

The Dads arrive to Neverwinter. Lark and Sparrow think Henry will be angry and decide to throw the dads into the dungeons. In the dungeons the dads escape and Sparrow leaves Lark behind to initiate the ritual to summon the Doodler. Henry chases after Sparrow, while the other dads fight the guards and capture Lark, eventually throwing him in a cell.

While Lark is in the cell, Henry gives a speech that convinces Sparrow of the power of love, and Darryl throws the Bag of Beans resulting in a pyramid appearing and crushing the tower. Lark is found barely alive underneath the rubble.

After leaving Neverwinter, Lark and Sparrow are taken over by a booming voice and disappear.

Normal Oak: He’s never had a pet. His family doesn’t think the pet can consent to being owned, so they don’t have pets. He has befriended a raccoon that lives outside of the school by stealing lunch meat from the cafeteria. He’s also immune to rabies.

Scary Marlowe: Her only other part-time job was a few months ago, where she worked at a VHS and CD store. She was fired because she was more preoccupied with the store’s Spotify playlist than with actually helping customers.
