Episode 27: Dick and Johnson and a Basket of Fries Part 2

Dick and Johnson receive a telegram from Papas Fritas calling for help, as the Dick and Johnson exhibit at the National Museum of American History is apparently being haunted.

Arriving at the museum, Papas Fritas informs Dick and Johnson that he has been seeing ghostly apparitions on the video surveillance system, and small pieces of Dick's right eye have been cut out of posters, figures, and other imagery of him in the museum. Inside, they briefly note some of the other exhibits currently on display, such as the Xzibit exhibit, the DMX exhibit, and a DM exhibit. By using a ouija board and a ghost trap built by Papas Fritas, they plan to capture the ghost, but, after announcing its plan to kill them all and take Dick's eye to free itself, the ghost begins possessing objects in the Dick and Johnson exhibit and attacks, while repeating the phrase "Oh eye Dick!" While fighting through a horde of powerful possessed toys, statues, and posters, Paps Fritas discovers that the source of the haunting seems to be a Southern ghost boy wearing an eye patch, sporting the emblem of the grade school that Dick and Johnson attended as children. None of them recognize the spirit, until Dick eventually identifies him as Track Yancy, a boy he accidentally hit in the eye with a sling shot in kindergarten, an anecdote that is portrayed as part of the Dick and Johnson exhibit.

Track explains that he has been sabotaging the exhibit because he feels it depicts him unfairly and he had hoped to achieve greater fame by killing Dick and Johnson. They manage to convince Track that he can use his time in the afterlife more productively, and he goes on to live a rich afterlife of about eighty years — only a week for the living — before ascending to ghost heaven. For saving the museum once again, and making Track a temporary, yet hugely popular, part of the exhibit, Papas Fritas gets appointed as the museum's new curator.

Behind the Scenes
The events in this episode are believed to take place some time before those of Episode 26, leaving its cliffhanger ending unresolved until Episode 28. Despite being titled as "Part 2," there technically is no "Part 1," as Dick and Johnson's first adventure with Papas Fritas was titled "Dick and Johnson Go to the Haunted Museum."
