Too Hot To Handle is the 9th episode of the first season of The Dreamstone (and the 9th of the show overall). It first aired in the UK the 20th of November 1990.
Synopsis[]
Urpgor invents some exploding candles which the Urpneys switch the real Dreammaker's candles after they take over Mr Wacks candle shop. Amberley managed to see through Blob's disguise and was tied up alongside with Mr Wacks. Frizz gave the candles in to the Dream Maker disguised as Amberley, while the Urpneys waited for the moment to snag the stone. Wildit and Rufus found and rescued Mr Wacks and Amberley, and were on their way back, as a nervous Frizz pointed out to Blob.
By this point however, the candles exploded, distracting the Dream Maker as the Urpneys went and steal the Dreamstone whilst the Argorribles attacked. However a trick by Wildit causes the Urpneys to crash into Mr Blossom, the Dream Stone sets off beams, leading the Argorribles to run away and the Urpneys to turn pleasant and jolly as a side effect of the rays, giving back the stone and returning to Zordrak with the good news...with the expected results.
"I said it wouldn't work!"
Trivia[]
- This is a flashback episode, with views of how Frizz got his injuries in the beginning of the episode, Albert's origin, Pildit's first leaf flying lesson, and the end of The Dreammaker's first Dreambubble pump. Footage from The Dreamstone is also shown (of Captain Crigg's death, and Rufus being fired by Mr Wacks).
- This is the second episode to show a dream onscreen (albeit via a flashback, showing the dream from which Albert originated).
- This episode was to be adapted into the unreleased Issue #8 of The Dreamstone Comic Series.
