Uncle Grandpa believes that the show is horrible and wants to know what else is on, he doesn't know where the remote is so he checks under the couch cushions, instead of the remote Uncle Grandpa finds an old issue of Weird Man, Uncle Grandpa opens the comic saying that he hasn't read this one in years.

A government agent tells Weird Man that they need help trying to apprehend an elusive terrorist, Weird Man tells him "I SERVE AMERICA!" and the agent gets confused, he then tells Weird Man that they've pulled an extensive dossier on a man known as Pierre Camambert, whose a Frenchman who has been importing all different types of cheese into the states via the black market. Weird Man looks at all the info closely. The agent goes on telling Weird Man that Pierre's profits of his illegal cheese ring are in the billions and that he hasn't paid taxes in over 10 years. The agent informs Weird Man that Pierre is expecting a huge shipment and that they need him to sneak in and catch him in the act, and with that evidence they could put him in behind bars for eternity. the agent also informs that the security is some of the best in the business and that Weird Man should be able to sneak through, and that Pierre is well-versed in the martial arts, as he's talking Weird Man plucks a eyelash from his eye and blows it towards Agent Thornhawke. Agent Thornhawke tells Weird Man to use lethal force if necessary and that America is counting on him, Agent Thornhawke notices the eyelash. Weird Man tells Agent Thornhawke not to worry and that he won't let America down, he then proceeds to walk out in a weird fashion.

A truck pulls into Pierre's hideout as Pierre tells a forklift worker to be careful while stocking his cheese, Pierre believes that with his latest shipment, they'll be breaking record profits and soon France will reign king of the economic giants of history all thanks to cheese. Weird Man opens the hideout door and says "Bonjour" to Pierre, Pierre is confused as to Weird Man not taking a vacation like he thought, Weird Man tells him that he doesn't take vacations and that he takes orders.

Pierre tells Agent Thornhawke that he'll see about that as he retained diplomatic immunity and he'll be back on the streets in a matter of weeks with even better security not even Weird Man can penetrate. Agent Thornhawke tells Pierre to tell it to the judge and he orders the bodyguards to take Pierre away. Pierre tells them that this is not the last they see of him and FRANCE WILL REIGN SUPREME! YOU SHALL SEE! Agent Thornhawke tells Weird Man that he can't thank him enough for all that he's done in service of this great country, Weird Man tells Agent Thornhawke "Make cheese while the sun shines" then "Never bite the cheese that feeds you" then says to matter, he does a weird pose and shouts TO A TERRORIST-FREE AMERICA! he flies through the ceiling and flies away telling the viewers to STAY WEIRD!

The Galaxy is So Big. Like, REALLY BIG! A Personal Journey With Uncle Grandpa[]
Uncle Grandpa walks along the beach talking about Mars, Saturn, and The Milky Way. He states that there's so much stuff up there, but the universe is more than just a bunch of candy bars and failed car companies, the universe also has billions of twinkly, shiny shimmies called stars, one of them is so close to Earth that it gives us two scoops of raisins every morning, the sun turns around, says good morning, and gives Uncle Grandpa a scoop of raisins.

Uncle Grandpa questions where do these crazy stars come from, his scientific hypotomus is there's a big giant star that gives birth to all the baby stars, which means they've got to look for the big mama star. Their journey begins at the Moon, Tiger roars at Uncle Grandpa, Uncle Grandpa knows that the moon isn't a star, he's getting some food. Uncle Grandpa tells the viewers that the Moon is the very first planetary fast-food drive-through, and since the Moon is always full, it's employed entirely by 24-hour Werewolves. A Werewolf pops out from a crater and hands Uncle Grandpa a bag of food, Tiger farts and blasts the Moon into the Earth, Uncle Grandpa looks into his bag of food and sees that they forgot his fries and says that's the last time that he'd give them his business.
Uncle Grandpa tells the viewers that for their search of the big mama star, they'll need a specialized guide, which is why Uncle Grandpa picked up a map of the stars from a tourist shop in Hollywood, California. Uncle Grandpa sees that it's very useless and the map gets dragged into a black hole. Uncle Grandpa tells the viewers that some science-y guys say that if you go through a black hole, you go out the other end completely backwards, Uncle Grandpa states he'll believe it when he sees it and decides to take a closer look. The two go in the black hole and come out completely inside out, Uncle Grandpa believes that it's gust a theory.
Uncle Grandpa and Tiger a flying through space while crashing through the Voyager 1 Spacecraft. Tiger is getting restless and Uncle Grandpa tells her that before television was invented, people would look up to the constellations for entertainment, before he tells the viewers can roll their eyes at him he takes a look at what's on the intergalactic boob tube. He passes through Sagittarius and thinks it's lame, murder case scene and thinks it's too violent, and a love story between two guys named John and James and a woman named Deborah, Uncle Grandpa missed last weeks episode and wonders if Deborah is in love with John or did she know James was- Tiger cuts him off telling him to be quiet, Uncle Grandpa apologizes.
Uncle Grandpa doesn't get it, They've searched the entire galaxy and still haven't found the creator of all the stars, Uncle Grandpa comes up with the conclusion that stars are just a collection hydrogen and helium, drawn together by the laws of physics and not some mythical character. Tiger crashes into a giant machine and Uncle Grandpa sees that it's her, Mama Star, exercising on a star master, Uncle Grandpa believed that things were getting a bit heavy-handed for a minute. Uncle Grandpa asks Mama Star if he can asks her a question, Mama Star says "Yeah, yeah. Go for it" Uncle Grandpa asks that is it true she makes all the stars in the galaxy, she replies "Are you kidding me?", Uncle Grandpa doesn't know if that was a reasonable question. Mama Star says "I already told him the answer is no. We filled this week's quota, but now he wants to renegotiate our original contract. Ha! over my dead Body!". Uncle Grandpa sees that she's on her phone, Mama Star stops exercising and tells her associate to hang on, she wants to know who is Uncle Grandpa and why is he interrupting her workout? Uncle Grandpa says hi and tells her that he'd like to know where stars come from, Mama Star is mad that Uncle Grandpa had interrupted her work out because he wants to know where stars come from?
