Yep, Ernie Borgnine stars as a kindly old grandfather babysitting his grandson for the night.

2. What do Mike and the bots try at the beginning of the episode?

Answer: 1920's college pranks

Mike tries swallowing goldfish, Crow sits on top of a flagpole, and Servo locks himself in a phonebooth with other Tom Servo clones.

3. What happens in the beginning of the film?

The grandfather (played by Ernie Borgnine) proceeds to tell his grandson two stories about Merlin and what goes on in his "shop of wonders."

4. Merlin owns a "shop" of magic that is located where?

Yeah, you ALWAYS find magic shops in downtown Los Angeles.

5. What was wrong with the couple who visited the magic shop?

Answer: They couldn't have children

The wife was completely barren and couldn't get pregnant. They had thought about adoption but the husband couldn't raise someone else's child.

6. The husband, who works as a reporter, was trying to do what?

Answer: Put Merlin out of business

He was skeptical of Merlin's shop of magic (wanted to put the old guy out of business) so Merlin gave him a magic book to take home with him. He toyed with the book of spells until he breathed fire, made himself levitate, grew old at a very rapid rate, and turned himself into an infant, which made his barren wife happy that she had a child to care for (the downside to this is that the baby is her husband..yikes).

7. What do Crow and Servo do to each other in the middle of the episode?

Answer: Rate each other

They end up hurling insults at each other.

8. The monkey toy, stolen from Merlin's shop, does what?

Answer: Kills things

A woman buys it from the pawn shop as a birthday present for a friend's son. It turns out that the monkey toy, once he bashes the cymbals he's holding, kills things. It killed plants, a family dog, and almost killed a young boy. The father of the son who received the toy tries desperately to get rid of it. Eventually, Merlin finds the toy monkey.

9. What happens to Mike during the show?

Answer: He dresses as a baby

Mike ends up having a dirty diaper and Servo runs away from him, in fear of having to change Mike.

10. Mike finds a bunch of children's books. What is so unusual about these books?

Answer: The book titles are pleasant but the actual content isn't so pleasant

The books with the not-so-pleasant titles are totally the opposite of what the title suggests.
