Plot

Eric and Trevor wanted to go to the amusement park built by Maxum Man, but their parents or guardians did not sign their contracts, so Eric needs to tell Maxum Brain to sign the paper, but he is too busy having a day off.

Why It Does Not Sign

1. This is an Eric torture episode, due to him hesitating Maxum Brain to sign the paper.
   • The second half of this episode is a Maxum Brain torture episode as Eric wanting him to sign but only to stalk him.
2. After Eric uses the "Signaturator", it fails to sign since it only works for "evil".
3. It is illegal to make a fake signature in the slip because Pamplemoose will shoot Eric, as it only requires a real signature.
4. Trevor's signature does not resemble a signature as it shows a smiley face covered with peanut butter.
5. In the Bombsonian Institute, Eric attempted to write Maxum Man's real signature, yet the ink runs out and he tapped the bomb lots of times; causing it to explode.
6. He also uses a device to release different Maxum Men, only to find out that they forgot their pens; despite being FOUND IN THE POCKET all along. To make things worse, they even EAT their pens as they believe that it is their snack, which in real life, it can poison you to death.
7. In the wrestling match, Eric and Trevor fail to beat up robots as the wrestler robots are too overpowered to fight.
8. Plot Hole: After one of the buses is launched in the amusement park, Maxum Brain is shown riding in the roller coaster with Kitty and Vana; which he would have to use tickets first before going there.
9. Bad Ending: Eric and Trevor attempted to enjoy Cyborg Fun Land amusement park because he confessed about entering it; until... Pamplemoose decided to close it FOREVER!
   • Even more insulting, Pamplemoose is so unlikable, he cannot take criticisms when Eric wanted to enter the said amusement park, thus making him a selfish jerk.

Redeeming Qualities

1. Eric, Trevor, Vana, and Kitty are likable in this episode.
2. The scene where Eric cries to Pamplemoose about attempting to go to the Cyborg Fun Land is heartwarming, despite the ending.
