Toony's McCallistan Lore: Chapter 2

~Guess Who's Coming to Thanksgiving Dinner~

(requested by @kaneda-shotaros-12th-bike )

(SPOILER WARNING: This series contains heavy spoilers. If you wanna read it, you're gonna have to watch the actual episode first.)

It's not even close to Thanksgiving, but I don't care.

The episode starts off with people celebrating Thanksgiving (oddly enough, Dr. Two-Brains seems to be innocently chilling with his henchmen for once.)

You know who else is celebrating Thanksgiving? The Botsford family, of course. In the next scene, they're just going grocery shopping for, gah dayum... 22 BAGS OF FROZEN PEAS FOR BECKY'S MOM'S MYSTERY DISH! And a turkey. In fact, it's the last turkey in the grocery store. Becky takes it without hesitation and they continue shopping. Oh, by the way, there's the Botsford Family Wishbone Wishoff Competition! Oh, by the way, you might wanna remember that thing for later.

What's that? Vibraphones and pizzicato string noises? In the key of C Minor? You know what that means... ✨it's tobin' time✨

"Tobey! No playing with your toys until we're finished shopping! >:(" Claire McCallister, Tobey's mother, commands.

"Yes, mother... 😒✨" Tobey replies in an 🌸elegantly🌸 disappointed tone of voice.

I find it kinda funny that his mom calls the robot remote a "toy", to be honest. It's like she's dealt with robot attacks before and she's just so tired of it that she has literally no other choice but to call it a ridiculous little device, y'know, like some sort of video game thing. She's just like "oh nah not this again, my son is aboutta cause a despair-inducing event". Can't blame her tho, I certainly would've gotten tired of trying to stop my child from causing evil to humanity 24/7.

When the mother of the precious-kawaii-poggers-intelligent-handsome-formidable-boy-genius child asks the meat counter worker for one succulent round turkey (fr tho she has the most elegant voice and vocabulary, I guess Tobey really does take after his mother in terms of mannerisms and accent...), surprise surprise, there's no more turkeys left. That's because somewhere else, Tobey used one of his 🤖robits🤖 to stop a truck from delivering the turkeys to the store. Well, that's a waste of food.

Here's where the juicy lore all about Tobey begins. After his mother says something along the lines of "What will we do without a turkey, Tobey?" he says "I just don't know, mother..." and then... his fantasy scene about him dating WordGirl begins. YEEEESSSS YEEAAAAHAHAHA-

Here's what he said about his devious plan (verbatim):

"Perhaps I'll finally get to play with my 🍁Thanksgiving-themed🍁 pilgrim 🤖robits🤖! The ones that'll lure 🌟WordGirl🌟 out to a fight and force her to spend 🍁Thanksgiving🍁 with 💖yours truly💖! ✨Ohohoho~✨"

The imagery while he says this is a bit wholesome, yet it just seems so... lonely. I don't mean "lonely" in that r/CringeTopia way, I mean "lonely" as in actually depressing. It just shows them just chilling and eating turkey in a secluded area, specifically an island with literally nothing but water around it. The scenery is Thanksgiving-themed, of course. However, it shows WordGirl sitting across from Tobey, wait, actually, not sitting. Literally being TRAPPED in a 🤖robit🤖's hand while staring romantically at him. The more I look at this fantasy, the more I feel the ambience slowly shift from wholesomeness to despair and loneliness. Think about it: this is a SECLUDED island, y'all. This land is straight up unpopulated and empty, and yet there's a ship in the background for some reason, like someone decided to just leave it there. It definitely wasn't Tobey who controlled that ship, because all he uses is robots (in this case, probably waterproof because how else is it gonna get here besides the ship that is probably way to small for it)! That ship was probably for extra storage or something, or built on the spot for emergencies in case the robot breaks down. However, WordGirl has the power to fly away from here in mere SECONDS. That means that the robot had a HELLA tight grip on her, because in Tobey Goes Good, when the robot squeezes WordGirl just tight enough for her to not have any ability to even move (or in the worst case scenario, BREATHE), it can successfully keep her trapped. She's probably getting her ribcage squeezed if his fantasy was real, and it really looks like she had no other choice but to spend time with Tobey if she wanted to stay alive. And there Tobey is... just staring at her, thinking: Finally, we are alone, and I'll keep you to myself... that's gotta be the most depressing thing ever. Let that sink in. If he wanted her to himself, he had to actually trap her in a way where she couldn't get out whatsoever (and unfortunately, he may unintentionally delete her), bring her all the way to a deserted island, and just force her to spend time with him. Either that or Tobey really thought WordGirl was just gonna willingly vibe with being taken to the empty island and all this was just a peaceful date.

That's one messed up imagination, but without the disturbing part of the visuals, it seems like Tobey wanted to lure her out to a fight first, get rid of the robots, and then surprise her with a dinner date on that deserted island, because WordGirl, at least, seemed happy to be with him. Something tells me that the animators did that on purpose to try to make it seem like he had manipulative intentions. Nice try, animators, but you're not gonna stop me from shipping them. Never ever.

Anyways, Becky's dad, noticing that the McCallister family doesn't have a turkey, invites them to their family dinner. The ToBecky duo/soon-to-be-couple groans in disappointment. (Homies, should we tell 'em?)

Later that day, the whole family- I MEAN two families eat Thanksgiving dinner together. The kids are STILL upset with each other (okay, I admit it. In the future, I predict when these two get married, the two families together at the dinner table will be one family combined. skull emoji 💀) When the Tobester sees his 🤖robits🤖 outside, he's like "Daddy will be with you soon >:)". Which is hella funny because he really does treat his 🤖robits🤖 like they're his own children. In one episode, Tobey says to one of them, "Stop that foolishness! I raised you better than that!" (Quote source: Have You Seen The Remote?) This shows that he really acts like a father figure to his robots. 💀skull emoji💀

Now, everybody gangsta till lil' bro TJ says "Hey Tobey, is that remote control for one of your famous robots? :D"

The whole room gets quiet and everyone stares at him in confusion (half of em stare at him in anger lmao) until Tobey replies that the remote is not for robots and is actually a radio. Here's the lyrics to the absolute BANGER of a mini-song Tobey makes up on the spot:

Thanksgiving Is Here (by Theodore "Tobey" McCallister III)

🎵🍁 Boo-puh-duh-puhhh~

Thanksgiving is here

Troo-duh-doo-duh-doo-duh-doo~

This is the song to play on Thanksgiving on the radio

Buh-deh-peh-deh-deh~

Drums~! 🍁🎵

There would be an epic drum solo after he says "Drums", but alas, it is only a mere mini-song that was only made up on the spot.

On a good note, most of the people in the room seem to like the song! Tobey's mom tells him to put the thing away anway, though.

After the Botsford parents announce that they will be cooking up the special dish Becky's mom is gonna make, Tobey finds a way to distract his mother so that he can carry out his evil plan. When he disappears, the adults finish cooking the special dish. Tobey's mom finds him missing (aww she called him "My Tobey", what a sweet mother) and tries looking for him.

Tobey sneaks up to Becky's room (hmm, how odd that he chose Becky's room out of all rooms... 🤔) to finally control his robots. To distract everyone else at the dinner table, Becky says that she's going to get a surprise from her room. She's like "GOOD GRACIOUS, TOENAIL, OPEN THE DAMN DOOR" and Tobey refuses. Becky resorts to BREAKING DOWN THE DOOR (what a waste of wood, she could've tried lockpicking or smth. Also how tf did no one hear them from all the way downstairs??)

Becky transforms into WordGirl and the big bad battle happens. But they stop for a second! Then this lil' convo happens (verbatim, again):

"Why are you so reluctant to stop the battle for a second?"

"I'm not sure how I feel about answering that question... until I know what the word reluctant means... :<"

I just wanna point out that Tobey's voice when he says that last part is just so adorable. It made me AUDIBLY! go "aww~". He's just so humiliated about not knowing a word in front of his crush, and he just wants her to help him out by defining that word for him, isn't that so sweet >////< 💖✨💖✨💖✨💖

Also, that 🤖robit🤖's hand gestures like he's defining "reluctant" for Tobey instead of WordGirl got me deceased 💀SKULL EMOJI💀

WordGirl says that Thanksgiving is a holiday where you just chill with your loved ones, eat dinner, and say how grateful we all are with anything. Also, she then goes on to say that, let's face it, there's gotta be at least one thing that he's grateful for.

Then Tobey says this (verbatim AGAIN):

"I'm grateful for Wor- 😳 *ahemmm* 🤖robits🤖... 😒✨"

And he also says that spending the holiday at Becky's house was "fairly tolerable", and WordGirl says that's the nice thing he's said about her- I MEAN Becky. Whichever one. Doesn't matter. This scene is hella wholesome, by the way. They even called the battle a tie! :3

After the ToBecky duo return to their dinner, Tobey says that he's grateful for the dinner and the fact that the Botsfords invited them. HE'S SO NICE WHEN HE'S NOT BEING A MENACE TO THE CITY WAAAHAHAHAAAAAAHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖

Becky gives her surprise, which is an announcement. (Funny that she said that she had to go up to her room to "get" her surprise, and afterwards she said that the surprise is actually given verbally. How tf did no one in the room even notice that??) The announcement is an invitation for the McCallisters to join in the (hope you remembered this one) Botsford Family Wishbone Wishoff Competition! BECKY IS ALSO HELLA NICEEEEEEEEE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖

Guess what, guys... TOBEY WON THE COMPETITION 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔊🔊🔊🔊📢📢📢📢💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼ HE'S THE MVP FR!!!!!!!

Oh, and next year, the Botsfords will come over to their house for Thanksgiving. (ngl I kinda wanted to see that lmao)

In the end, the ToBecky duo start vibing with each others' presence. THEY'RE SO CUTE TOGETHER AWAWWAWAWWWWAWAWAWAWAWWAWWAAHHHHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖✨💖

~The End~
