"The Thing and the Absent-Minded Inventor" is the thirteenth and final episode (part two) of The Thing season one, as well as the final episode of the series. It aired on December 1, 1979 on NBC.
Miss Twilly takes her favorite students to the annual inventors show, where her uncle(?) is expected to win the Eureka prize.
Some male dude at Hanna-Barbera was clearly thinking, "Why hasn't the divine Miss Twilly been given her own episode? Spend eleven minutes with her trying to get out a complete sentence. Now that's comedy!"

Errors
- Miss Twilly invites the gang out to the annual inventors fair, but Ronald's the one who has to drive her. Since this is the last episode of the series, I must ask: What was Hanna-Barbera thinking when they came up with this series?
- Wouldn't it have just been easier to make the Twillys siblings? No, of course not, why make something in this series actually make sense?

Home availability
- Warner Bros. own the show, while Disney own the characters, making it difficult to release this episode onto DVD.
