"The Fremergency Fronfract" is a Season 2 episode of Wander Over Yonder.
Summary[]
Lord Hater is at the dentist because he chipped his teeth and blames it on Wander. The dentist gives him an electric squid-like creature's treatment to knock him out. The dentist's assistant asks him for his emergency contact, but Hater once again woozily says Wander's name. When Hater regains consciousness, he sees Wander and Sylvia in front of him. Surprisingly, Hater hugs both of them and asks them what they are doing in the office, and Wander informs him they are picking him up since he listed Wander as his emergency contact. Hater surmises that if Wander is his "fremergency fronfract", they must be friends. The dentist informs Wander and Sylvia that the painkillers may have had a side effect on his brain and instructs Wander to make sure Hater gets home safely.
Wander is well-aware that Hater is not really his friend, but is still lingering from the effects of the drugs. However, Wander suddenly has an idea to get Hater to realize how much fun friendship really is. But Sylvia is against this idea. Hater then sees a Gelatinous Bob's and decides to have some fun. Hater bursts into the arcade and everyone there screams at his presence. Hater gets some ice cream, but gulps it in one bite and gets another toothache. Wander decides to play some games with Hater. Sylvia begins documenting this on her cell phone. Wander helps Hater win a skull ring in the crane game. Afterwards, Wander and Hater continue having fun with the latter reacting in an almost childlike manner.
After seeing some color strings, Wander takes Hater to Crystalline 7 and they witness the reflecting lights. Hater becomes rather poetic at this sight. Sylvia tells Wander they have to take Hater back, but after seeing him helping a child get a better view, he becomes euphoric at the idea of helping people and they go about town helping all the citizens. However, Hater's ship arrives with Peepers calling for him. Wander considers running, but realizes that his friendship with Hater is not genuine as he is still under the effects of the drugs. He is forced to angrily tell Hater to leave who sadly leaves the skull ring as a memento.
On the ship, Peepers prepares the attack on Crystalline 7, but upon seeing the girl in peril, Hater sabotages the controls on his ship and blows it up as Wander and Sylvia happily look on. Hater wakes up in the infirmary, thinking it was all a dream only to see all his Watchdogs in the infirmary as well. Peepers shows Hater the video that Sylvia took and he angrily curses Wander, resulting in his teeth shattering.
