Synopsis for "Horace Hotstuff"
Horace stumbles across his friends, and they begin traveling together as one shares a story about a harmless prank he performed. Laughing, Horace insists that no one could pull a practical joke on him. Horace invites his two friends into his pricey new home, where he brags about how much he paid for the glasses one of the friends is filling with water. The friends claim that they can show Horace an effective way of keeping his ceiling clean. They place a broom between Horace's head and the ceiling, keeping it in place. They then stand a glass of water on the back of each of his hands. The two then guffaw as they walk out of the house, teasing Horace about his claim that he couldn't be pranked.

Looking for an opportunity to relax his mind after contemplating his theories on metaphysical realities, Pee Wee Pete stumbles across a poster for a wrestling match to be held that day. Pete and his companion head toward the event, with Pete pushing away a couple parallel-parked cars that were blocking their path. Once they get there, however, they find that a large crowd preventing them from getting closer.

Synopsis for Ezry of the Ozarks: "Fountain of Youth Tonic"
A couple of street peddlers attempt to swindle a crowd of countrymen into buying bottles of what he claims to be fountain of youth tonic. Ezry gets excited and snatches a bottle from the primary speaker's hand, immediately downing it. Ezry hiccups and begins shouting at the peddlers with slurred speech, disparaging the tonic he just drank for not having the effect he expected, before lunging at them with the bottle. The peddler calls for Ezry to calm down and then points out that the tonic Ezry drank was a hair tonic, which soothes the pig farmer.

Synopsis for Ibis the Invincible: "Ignus, the Fire Fiend"
Ibis has a "scoffer" as a house guest who doubts that elemental beings really exist. Like a good host, Ibis allows his guest to use the Ibistick to make a wish, but the man uses it to command a fire elemental to appear if there really is such a thing. Indeed there is, a horned demon named Ignus. The fire elemental steals the Ibistick, depriving Ibis of most of his power. He's still able to conjure Aka, the water elemental, but Ignus gets away and causes a string of deadly fires. Ignus eventually starts a forest fire, and even summons Thor to help fend off Ibis and his allies. In the chaos the wizard manages to reclaim his wand, and between him and the water elemental finally send Ignus back to his place, as a minor presence in every flame instead of free to work his art anywhere he pleases.
