"Web" is the second half of the 8th episode of Dave the Barbarian.

Synopsis[]

Candy has difficulty paying off an expensive spending spree when she discovers that online shopping is possible. She later finds out that Chuckles and the Queen of the Mole People are also in debt for the same reason.

Plot[]

Using a magic stone tablet and a crystal ball, Oswidge is able to connect the family to the Worldwide Spider Web. The family uses it for typical things, like emailing their parents and playing online games. But, Candy discovers online shopping and soon becomes addicted. Over the next three days, she buys anything from shoes to furniture to live lobsters. Oswidge warns that she needs to pay for all of these things eventually, otherwise a bill collector will come. Just then, there is a knock at the door. Candy goes to answer, expecting it to be her order of diamond-studded diamonds.

There are no diamonds, but instead Gagnar the Bill Collector, a giant with glasses and a clipboard. He tells Candy that unless she pays off her 3 million drekel debt, he will crush her and her family. He will also literally take their castle away, as he is strong enough to lift it with one hand. Candy is unable to pay that much, Gagnar proposes another idea. If the barbarians collect that same amount of money from Chuckles the Silly Piggy, Candy's debt will be cleared.

The group heads to Chuckles' evil fortress, where he is remodeling his kitchen. One of his servants informs him that the barbarian bill collectors are at the gate, and he gets the servant to stall while he hides. But, Fang sees the pig in a window. The barbarians storm the castle and find Chuckles hiding in a pie. They all prepare to battle, which the Narrator narrates, but it is revealed that everyone is banging pots and pans together instead. The Narrator questions this, and Chuckles remarks that he just installed Florentine tiles and Corinthian marble columns. These expensive renovations are the reason that Chuckles is now in debt. He tells the barbarians that he can give them 3 million drekels if he gets the Queen of the Mole People to pay the money she owes him. The barbarians team up with Chuckles, and dig a hole to the center of the earth.

Underground, the Mole Queen is making a soup, but is missing several ingredients. As she reads off what she needs, the group falls into her cauldron one-by-one. The barbarians, Faffy, and Chuckles were the ingredients she required, but Dave points out that the water in the cauldron isn't boiling because Mole Queen did not start the fire. The group escapes the cauldron, and demand the money from the Mole Queen. She admits that someone else owes her that same amount, and they all team up to collect.

The group goes to a cave, and find that the person who owes 3 million drekels to the Mole Queen is Gagnar the Bill Collector. He cannot pay until Candy pays him, but Chuckles and Mole Queen can't pay until Gagnar pays up. Everyone starts to argue, but Candy gets an idea. She tells Gagnar to write a check for 3 million drekels, and to give it to the Mole Queen. The queen gives the check to Chuckles, who gives the check to Candy, who gives the check back to Gagnar. This clears everyone's debts, and the group, satisfied, go to get ice cream. However, Dave demands a proper explanation, since there was not actually any transfer of money.

Oswidge then "explains" by singing "Steve the Egg." Even though this song has nothing to do with the episode's events, everyone sings along.
