Summary

In our second April Fool’s special, the Whentbridge Timers go up against the Observatorium Grumblers in the biggest (and only-est) basketball game What If World’s ever seen. Pay attention, because the story might try to play some tricks on Mr. Eric. Lessons include: Everyone loses sometimes, and it gives us a chance to improve; Winning doesn’t make you superior to others. This remastered episode first aired on April 2, 2018.
