Description:  Five short stories, some involving Finn and Jake building a time machine. Acceptance (starring Finn, Jake, and Jake Jr.) The first grayble takes place in Finn and Jake's tree fort, where Jake Jr. is sitting on a couch reading. After she tells Jake she is nervous about the future, Jake and Finn insist on building a "time machine" for her in an attempt to entertain her and cheer her up. While Jake and Finn are away getting things to build the machine, Jake Jr. remarks that her mom has a strange "taste in men." Jake and Finn return and make an elaborate show of creating the time machine, pretending that a pillow is a part they need to build it. Jake Jr. appears amused, but says, "I'm not a little kid anymore." Acceptance, part 2 The second-to-last scene appears to be a conclusion for two of the graybles. Finn is shown, helping Jake finish up the "time machine." He says, "What, a jerk?" referring to a movement Jake needs him to carry out to build the time machine. Jake says yes, and they turn a motor onto its side inside an open briefcase. When their machine is completed and Jake announces this to his daughter, Jake Jr. who is sitting on the floor reading a book, next to an empty wine glass, asks, "You having fun, Dad?" Jake and Finn sit on top of the time machine, and Jake holds up a wooden horse puppet toy with a metal clamp and cord attached to it. He presses the button, and, unexpectedly, a flashing red light immediately illuminates the room while an electronic voice loudly says "Stranger! Stranger!" over and over. Cuber chooses this moment to pause the graybles. Back in Cuber's workshop, a screen image of Jake Junior illuminated in shades of red is frozen on the screen behind the host. Cuber looks at the image and sees a small birdhouse on the wall in the background, realizing that the door hole of the birdhouse is supposed to go above the peg. He then begins to say his usual closing statement that indicates the end of the episode, but stops abruptly as if the audience has interjected. He asks if the audience would like to guess the theme of the graybles again. The "camera" shakes back and forth, indicating this is not what the audience wants. Cuber then guesses that the audience just wants to see the rest of the graybles. The "audience" agrees, and he resumes the scene in the tree fort. Acceptance, part 3 Chaos continues in the tree fort as lights flash and an alarm goes off, until Jake Jr. realizes that BMO is the one causing all the commotion with an alarm light on its head because of an intruder, Cinnamon Bun. She picks up BMO and types in the words "It's OK," after which the alarm stops going off and BMO's normal face returns to its screen. BMO says "excuse me." Then Jake Jr. catches Cinnamon Bun trying to steal a Jake-shaped nightlight out of the wall, and demands to know what he is doing trying to steal her dad's stuff. He says he needs the light because he is so scared, and she tells Cinnamon Bun that he cannot steal. He begins to cry, his frosting dripping onto the floor like tears, so she relents, taking the light out of the wall using her hair, dropping it in her hand, and giving it to him. Cinnamon Bun runs out of the tree fort, yelling, "Take that, Princess Bubblegum!" BMO apologizes for "messing up her time travel" and Jake-Jr. accepts the apology, claiming "It was just make believe anyways." Finn interrupts to reveal that they did indeed go through time to get tomorrow's newspaper, which is held by Jake and appears to have been made by hand.
