Information
Edit
Summary: Numbuh 4 is charged with protecting his mom's prized vase, or he'll have to take Ballroom Dancing Lessons. This becomes increasingly hard as the vase is stolen. He follows the robber, which takes him to a base ball stadium and used for a baseball-like game called "Vaseball", where kids use glass and pottery as the balls. Numbuh 4 thinks he must play, and turns out to be very good. But then, the pitcher throws the vase he was supposed to protect. He tries to get away with the vase, only to find himself in a room of bullies. In the office, Numbuh 4 uncovers an insidious plot by his old friend turned enemy Ernest (the commissioner of Vaseball) and his band of bullies, who plan to rat the kids out for their misbehavior, so they can get the kids grounded that way no one can tattle on them as they vandalize every house in the neighborhood. He accidentally knocks over a bookshelf -- "Uhh... Does that count as a home run?" He gets away, only to find himself in a match to the death with Ernest. They duel with plates, vases, and all sorts of breakable china. The only thing they don't destroy is the vase Numbuh 4 is supposed to protect. Finally, he knocks a bookcase on Ernest, knocking him out cold. He saves the vase, but the other bullies have already carried out their plan. Every kid (including Ernest) is grounded except for Numbuh 4. "He will always live in the hearts of kids who love to break things."

Trivia/Goofs
Edit
- Ernest's message starts out, "Hello. This is an anonymous message. From Ernest." He's actually contradicting himself by stating his name immediately after saying the message was anonymous.
- When Numbuh 4 and Ernest are fighting in the smoke, Numbuh 4's silhouette shows that his vaseball jersey has a hood like his normal outfit does. Immediately after this clip, you can see that there's no hood on his jersey.
- This episode seems to hint that Numbuh 4 can play the electric guitar.
