Dinklescouts is the second episode of Season 9.

Plot[]

Timmy feels worried about the camping trip, because his dad is too careless to be the camping leader. So he wishes that Mr. Dinkleberg would replace his dad as the leader of the Squirrely Scouts. Mr. Turner still comes with them and gets himself into trouble.

Synopsis[]

Timmy, dressed up in his Squirrely Scout-uniform, is packing up supplies and gear for his troop's upcoming annual camping trip. But he's been acting really jumpy all morning, and upon being questioned about it by Wanda, Timmy reminds her, Cosmo and Poof of how his dad is the leader of his Squirrely Scout-troop, which causes Timmy and his fairy godfamily (minus Sparky) to all scream in unison. When Sparky questions them on it (figuring that Mr. Turner couldn't be that bad of a troop leader), Timmy explains to his dog how his dad's antics pretty much always put him and the rest of his troop in terrible danger (albeit unintentionally).

Timmy's Dad eventually comes in and reveals the place he's planning on taking Timmy and the rest of the Squirrely Scouts in their trip for their annual camping trip: a place called Faultline State Park, whose slogan is "If you have a bad time, it's not our fault...unless there's another earthquake," and the poster shows that it apparently even has a volcano -- Timmy's dad also claims that there are apparently "vicious, inbred mountain men" at the park. Timmy, excusing himself, goes to talk to his fairies and wishes that someone more responsible would replace his dad as his troop's leader -- but Cosmo tells Timmy to be more specific, claiming that even Faultline's "vicious, inbred mountain men" are more responsible than Mr. Turner.

After thinking it over, Timmy ultimately wishes that Sheldon Dinkleberg, his family's saintly next-door neighbor, was the new leader of his Squirrely Scout-troop. Cosmo, Wanda and Poof make this come true and Timmy's dad ends up getting a call from the Squirrely Scout Association informing him of this -- Mr. Turner's saddened by this and becomes enraged/upset upon discovering that Mr. Dinkleberg is his replacement.

Mr. Dinkleberg drives Timmy and the rest of his troop to their camping trip destination -- even though Mr. Turner's not the troop leader anymore, he's at least still allowed to come on the trip with them (albeit as a "junior scout" who has to "stay away from fire, sharp objects and children"). And rather than stay at Faultline State Park, Mr. Dinkleburg takes the Turners and the rest of the Squirrely Scouts to a place called Safety Canyon (which doesn't actually have a canyon), which is clearly a much safer place than Mr. Turner's original choice for the trip.

During the course of the camping trip, Mr. Dinkleberg does all kinds of fun but safe activities with Timmy and the other scouts while Mr. Turner tries doing more dangerous activities but only gets himself hurt. Timmy's dad eventually acknowledges that Mr. Dinkleberg is a better candidate for being the Squirrely Scout-troop leader and eventually runs away into the woods, leaving a note behind in his tent. When Timmy finds the note and realizes the kind of danger that his dad's currently in ("My dad can't survive alone in the woods! He can barely survive alone in our house!" Timmy claims), Timmy sends Sparky out to go save his dad and bring him back their campsite. During this, the food that Mr. Dinkleberg prepared for lunch attracts some bears from a nearby cave -- the bears eventually start chasing after the kids and Mr. Dinkleberg, cornering them at a cliff.

Sparky brings Timmy's dad back, who manages to save Timmy and the others with his weird methods -- after the bears run away and everyone's safe and sound, Timmy and the others thank Mr. Turner for saving them, with Mr. Dinkleberg going so far as to claim that Mr. Turner is more deserving of being the Squirrely Scout-troop leader.

In the end, Timmy plans to undo his wish and make his dad the troop leader again once the trip is over and the episode ultimately ends with Timmy's dad getting carried off by a hawk and hitting an iceberg.
