The narrator discusses several missing characters from cartoons and their possible reasons for disappearance.
1. The box-headed octopus from The Amazing World of Gumball, who was last seen in the background of an episode and may have turned into a ghost after an accident.
2. Wildmutt from Ben 10, an alien that was part of the original team but stopped appearing after a certain episode.
3. Detective Smurf from The Smurfs, who appeared in the comics but not in the cartoon series due to being non-canonical.
4. Patchy the Pirate from SpongeBob SquarePants, who was obsessed with meeting SpongeBob but hasn't appeared in recent seasons. The narrator speculates that Patchy might have died and been replaced with a cartoon version.
5. Scooby-Doo from the Verma cartoon, who was deliberately left out of the movie because the creators thought he made the series too childish.
