"Tobor or Not Tobor" is the second segment of the thirty-second episode of the Disney Channel animated series, Hamster & Gretel.

Synopsis[]

Tobor helps Hamster and Gretel prepare for the threat from space.

Plot[]

While showing Kevin, Fred, and Gretel their new lair, Hamster introduces them to the sparring room. Realizing that they need a formidable partner to train with, Gretel attempts to convince Tobor to help them. However, Nordle, who is unaware that superhero Gretel and civilian Gretel are one and the same, refuses to let them use Tobor due to holding resentment about what they have done to Professor Exclamation. Gretel laments to Kevin, only for Tobor, who does realize that superhero Gretel is the same as civilian Gretel, to arrive and agree to help train the heroes in order to protect Nordle.

After days of Tobor sneaking off to train Hamster and Gretel, Nordle becomes suspicious and decides to follow him. Meanwhile, Tobor is hit in the head with a wrench during one of the training sessions and begins to attack Hamster and Gretel. At the park, Nordle discovers that Tobor was indeed training the heroes and initially refuses to stop Tobor from attacking, but upon Gretel explaining that Tobor wishes to protect him, Nordle relents. He then presents Tobor with a gift, having realized through a trip to a milkshake bar that he does not show Tobor much appreciation.
