One normal day after school, Denny and Silver were at their hang-out at the Watterson house, Gumball and Darwin were on 'ShotoFop and Elmore Plus'.

"So, Darwin, what do you think?" Gumball asked as Denny and Silver were on their way into their room where they usually hung out outside of school. "Duck Face or Ab Shot?"

"But we don't have any abs." Darwin replied.

"Which is why they invented ShotoFop." Gumball said. "Now, hurry and upload this before Denny and Silver show up and they realize we're fake!"

"Okay, okay." Darwin said.

"Aaaand upload!" Gumball said.

"Ahem." Denny cleared her throat.

The cat and fish turned to see the gerbil and wolf. "Denny, Silver, what a surprise!"

"What're you guys doing?" Silver asked.

"We just added a new photo on Elmore Plus and we're checking out our friend requests." Darwin smiled.

"That's cool." Silver said.

"You guys are so weird..." Denny said.

"What the what?!" Gumball panicked. "Rejected?!"

"Who rejected you?" Denny asked.

"We got rejected by Hector, the guy whose only online friend is his mom!" Gumball whined.

"Wow." Silver said.

"What the what?" Darwin echoed his older brother's catchphrase.

"I think he owes us an explanation." Gumball sounded determined.

With that, they all left the neighborhood and went into the forest to find the cave where the giant student of Elmore Junior High lived.

"He better have a good explanation." Silver said.

"P-P-Perhaps..." Denny held her tail nervously as they stood outside of the cave while Gumball called Hector's name.

"What do you want?!" a tiny witchy woman stumbled out of the cave.

"That woman looks familiar..." Silver said to himself.

"Uh, who are you?" Gumball asked.

"I'm Hector's mom." the woman replied.

"Wait, you're his mom? But he's a giant and you're, well... Not." Silver said.

"No offense, of course..." Denny smiled nervously.

"Hm..." the woman nodded to them.

"Mom, who is it?" Hector came out of the cave to see there was company.

"Nothing to worry about, honey!" Hector's mother replied before glaring to the others. "In the absence of a door I can slam, I'm gonna do this." she then moved her hand as though she were slamming the door in their faces.

"She can't be serious." Silver said.

"Can we at least talk to him?" Denny asked about the giant boy.

"Door." Hector's mom told her.

"But we just want to be his friend on Elmore Plus!" Gumball said.

"My baby doesn't need friends like you!" Hector's mom growled.

"Ah, spoke through the door." Gumball smirked.

"Get off my property!" Hector's mom replied in irritation.

"Okay, okay, we'll leave." Silver said.

Sometime after, they were in school. Gumball and Darwin were shooting spitballs at Hector in the playground while Denny and Silver were trying to mind their own business.

"They aren't gonna leave him alone, are they?" Silver asked, knowing that this wouldn't end well.

"Nope..." Denny said as she sat on a bench with him as she was organizing cards in her hands.

"This is not going to end well." Silver said.

"Nope..." Denny agreed, then put her cards away.

Gumball and Darwin walked over.

"We're going to Hector's place, he says he has cool stuff." Gumball said.

"This I've got to see." Silver said.

"I sense adventure..." Denny whispered to Silver.

"Come on then." Silver whispered back.

They then left the playground and followed Hector to his home to see if he was excited other than just being a giant in their school.

It took them a while, but they finally got to Hector's home.

"Well, this is my bedroom." Hector took them into one part of the cave.

"Are you sure that your mom's not here?" Gumball asked the giant. "It's not that I find her witch face creepy or anything, it's just that I really don't want her to jump out on me."

Denny sighed and rolled her eyes, then walked over to the hamster cage. "Aw, you got a little critter, hello, little guy!" she then smiled, trying to be social with the pet, but it did not appear to be moving or even breathing for that matter. "Um... Hello?"

"Um, Hector, your hamster seems to be..." Silver said, not wanting to tell the giant that his pet was dead.

"Hibernating," Hector said for him. "At least that's what my mom says."

"Yeah... Hibernating..." Silver said, uneasily, but it was very obvious that the pet was dead.

"Dudes, he's got comics!" Darwin called from one cabinet.

"Wait, really?" Silver smiled.

"You've got issue one of Captain Punch!?" Gumball was ecstatic as Denny and Silver came to his sides. "That's a collector's item! I take back everything I said... You're so not booooring~... This comic is so extreme my mom won't even let my dad read it!"

"Oh, my dad says comic books will rot my brain." Denny commented.

"Ah, live a little, will ya?" Gumball sighed to her, then opened the book so they could all check it out for themselves.

"Let's read it and see how extreme it is." Silver smiled.

"Yeah!" Gumball grinned.

The four then read the comic book, but it was anything but what they expected. There was kindness and friendliness throughout the comic instead of an action adventure like they had anticipated.

"Dude, who drew all over your comic?" Gumball asked.

"That's how it was when my mom gave it to me," Hector replied. "It's pretty cool, huh?"

"Well, that explains why it isn't exciting." Silver whispered.

"Uhh, Hector, I think we should go home now." Denny stepped back.

"No, no, wait!" Hector tried to stop them. "Let me tell some jokes, me and my mom and do it all the time."

Gumball sighed in defeat. "Fine..."

"Why did the chicken cross the road?" Hector then prompted.

Gumball, Darwin, Silver, and Denny shrugged.

"For a perfectly legitimate reason." Hector replied with a chuckle.

"Dude, that's not a joke, it's a sentence." Gumball deadpanned.

Suddenly, a tune was heard.

"Bed time..." Hector yawned before falling asleep.

"Is he falling asleep to the music of a music box?" Silver asked.

"Who cares?" Gumball sighed, then spotted a certain book. "Hector's diary!" he then picked up the diary and started to read it to them. "'I must not laugh, I must not get overexcited, I must not shout, I must not sneeze'? This sounds like a How-To Guide for ruining your life!"

"Who makes him write all this stuff?" Darwin wondered.

"I have a feeling I know who." Silver said.

"Same here." Gumball agreed as he tossed the diary aside.

"Who?" Darwin asked them.

Gumball did an impression of Hector's mother, unknowing that she was right behind him.

"I think they mean me." the woman replied.

Gumball screamed. "I knew she'd creep up behind me!"

"How do you do that?" Silver asked her.

"I have a more important question," the witchy woman glared firmly. "What are you doing in my son's bedroom?!"

"What are you doing taking the fun out of his life?" Gumball retorted.

"I think you're being a little presumptuous telling me how to raise my son." Hector's mother replied darkly.

"Look, he needs to experience fun because if you don't let him experience it, then he'll never experience any emotions and possibly become something he doesn't want to be become." Silver said.

"Just get out." Hector's mom demanded.

They then went out the cave as Silver knew he had to be right.

"Bet you she's a witch." Gumball said to the others.

"I think you've been insulting enough for today." Darwin replied.

"I agree with Darwin." Silver said.

A while later...

"Gumball, I think you should mind your own business and stop worrying about Hector." Denny said to her best friend.

"Yeah, he seems just fine with his life, even if it is boring." Silver said.

"Yeah, I don't think it's any of our business." Darwin agreed.

"NONE OF OUR BUSINESS!?" Gumball shrieked. "She's the reason we've got no friends on Elmore Plus! Nope, that's it. I'm going to speak to him."

"How is Hector's mom the reason you guys don't have friends on Elmore Plus?" Silver said. "I think you're just overreacting."

"He tends to do that..." Denny agreed even if she didn't know Gumball as long as Darwin did, but she had known him longer than Silver did.

"Hector!" Gumball stormed back over to the giant.

"Gumball, please, just leave him alone." Silver said.

"I've been thinking," Gumball said to the giant. "It's not your fault you're boring... Uh, you've got a bit of turkey sandwich just there..."

Hector touched his face and a turkey then fell right on the ground which made the others jump back in surprise.

"Look, it's your mom's fault you're boring." Gumball then said to Hector.

"Gumball, please, I beg of you, stop trying to help him." Silver whispered.

Darwin went to help Gumball.

"This can't end well." Denny said to Silver.

"You can say that again." Silver sighed.

"I'm gonna go home and hide under my bed!" Denny said before running off like a coward.

"I better make sure Hector doesn't take what Gumball is saying the wrong way." Silver said.

Denny shivered slightly.

"You gonna come?" Silver asked.

"Uh, I dunno..." Denny rubbed her arm. "I have a bad feeling, my tail is tingling."

"Don't worry, besides, even if something does happen, I'll be able to stop it." Silver said.

"Oh, boy..." Denny mumbled and crossed her arms. "Never a dull moment in this town."

The gerbil and wolf then went after the cat and goldfish as Hector sounded like he was yelling and arguing with his mother.
