Synopsis[]
Echo gets sick on Valentine's Day, so Adam shrinks down to fight the cold.
Overview[]
It's Valentine’s Day at Finnegan, and Adam decides to teach his class about the heart (Using the actual organ, much to his classes dismay). He discovers that Echo loves Valentines day, but is nearly shot several times by Slab, who is dressed as a cupid firing arrows.
At the quad, Adam decides to ask Echo out for a meal, only for her to sneeze a large wave of snot at him. She reveals that she is sick with a cold that she got from Slab, who got it from his cupid costume (Nothing but a wet diaper). They head to the Nurse's office, leaving Adam disappointed and injured due to an arrow shot from Slab. After Derby helps patch Adam's injury in the Science lab, Adam wonders what to do, using his Science to cause Derby to fall asleep. After waking up, Derby suggests building a shrink ray to enter Echo’s body to fight the virus. After some reluctance and motivation from Derby, Adam succesfully builds a shrink ray and successfully tests it on Derby's lunch. As he prepares to fire it on himself, Derby thinks the shrink ray is a camera and shrinks himself too.
The two enter Echo’s body using hot soup she eats, entering her stomach on a cracker getting injured by hot soup several times. After a while, Derby pops a gas bubble, inadvertently getting them to the lungs. To the duo's surprise, Slab is present alongside hundreds of clones of himself, making Adam realize that since the cold originated from Slab, they are the form his germs will take. They manage to trick the germs into attacking themselves until one remains, which Echo fortunately sucks out of her lungs by coughing. Adam and Derby celebrate, only to realize that they didn't think of a way to escape.
After a failed attempt at her mouth, Adam and Derby find themselves in Echo's nose. Adam tries to escape, but can't penetrate the large wall of snot and is forced to retreat when Echo wipes her nose. Echo is about to leave when Slab asks her to give a card to Adam, only for her to get a paper cut from it. Overhearing this, Adam decides to escape through the cut via her bloodstream, therefore finding his way to her heart (Literally). The duo do find themselves in Echo's ear, where Derby makes an earwax statue of himself, while Echo on the other hand searches the nurse's office looking for a bandage to cover her cut. Adam realizes they need to hurry or their escape will be blocked, inadvertently severing the statue's arm.
They find themselves in Echo's brain, where they briefly manipulate her into thinking she's in love with Adam and an alien duck, much to Slab's confusion and amusement. Entering a dark area which continuously brightens and darkens, Adam realizes that they've entered Echo's eyes, irritating her momentarily. At Slab's suggestion, Echo repeatedly blinks her eyes, which Adam and Derby dance to.
Finding themselves in a thumping area, Adam realizes that they've succeeded in finding Echo's heart. Using sunflower seeds which Derby acquired from the stomach, Adam and Derby surf across the bloodstream to the cut. Meanwhile, Slab reveals that he's been sitting on a first-aid kit, which Echo annoyingly tells him that's where the bandages are. As Adam and Derby close in to the opening, they are intercepted by Echo blocking the cut with a bandage, but are released when she tries to reapply it. Adam celebrates while Derby is a disappointed at losing his statue, and the duo are sent flying back to the Science Lab from a sneeze from Slab, where they use the shrink ray to restore themselves to their normal size.
Echo returns from the nurse’s office, hoping to find Adam and invites him for a meal due to being cured. As the trio leave, Echo curiously and accidentally activates the shrink ray, shrinking them once again. Slab enters the lab, forcing the trio to hide in Derby's shruken lunch that Slab finds. After several hesitations, he finally decides to eat it, inadvertently swallowing the trio.
The trio find themselves in Slab's stomach, finding all sorts of horrifying things. Echo wonders how they'll escape when Slab enters the bathroom, much to the trio's shock.

Trivia[]
- This is the only Valentine's Day episode in the series. It aired on 14th February, which is coincidentally Valentine's Day in the real world.
- This is a experience of learning about the human body.
- When Adam tries to ask Echo out for dinner, the sick Echo sneezes on Adam. Weirdly, Adam didn't get the Slab virus and somehow didn't get infected. Probably, Adam had some scientific medicine to cure himself. However, we can expect that he didn't because he made a shrink machine to shrink Adam and Derby in order to cure Echo from the inside.
- It is unknown how Adam, Derby, and Echo managed to escape Slab's body, as they could have gotten digested by Slab when he used the bathroom at the end of the episode.
- This episode has the least number of speaking characters, with only 4. It is tied with Mr. Sci-Fi for having the least amount of main characters appearing.
- However, Mrs. Byrne was briefly mentioned at the beginning of the episode.
Allusions[]
- Fantastic Voyage - The plot of going into a character's body to cure a disease in this episode is the exact same plot of the movie.
- The Bride of Frankenstein - When Slab burps in Echo's direction, he accidentally causes her hair to resemble that of The Bride of Frankenstein.
