Episode ideas that would deal with Faust:
Krusty Repulsive Adult Malevolently Pilfers Unruly Sister
After an early Christmas Party at the Gilligan's was ruined by Mushi, the young girl goes missing without a trace. It's up to Hoagie to speak to everyone in attendance to understand what had transpired. He finds he isn't the only one looking into the case when Faust shows up at his home, looking for his grandmother. Pressing for answers, Faust tells him Mushi isn't the only child missing. Several have disappeared overnight, including the Delightful Children. Their father hasn't been seen either. She reveals that she is certain who the culprit is but needs to speak with his grandmother to confirm her suspicions: that the old crone was spiteful enough about the party food being ruined that she invoked an ancient kidnapper to handle Mushi, inadvertently putting others in danger.
Hoagie has until midnight on Christmas night to retrieve everyone Krampus has kidnapped, or he will have to wait an entire year to have another chance.
*If this is post-break-up, Faust ends up having to help save her ex and his kids from someone she used to torment before he was locked away in slumber. Yes, Father was kidnapped as well when Krampus took the DCFDTL because Father just let the being take the kids.
Reconnaissance Emerges Citing Intricately Pleasing Edible
The KND receives a distress call from a boy with black hair and red glasses who claims he’s been kidnapped by Father for his "ice powers" and reports that he overheard Father saying he’s after something somewhere in Italy, a super-secret dessert recipe hidden away under Mount Fudgsuvius (Fudge-sue-vi-us). The call is interrupted by the Delightful Children and cut off. With another mission needing attention, Numbuh 5 decides to split away from the team to tend to the S.O.S. call. By sheer coincidence, Abby runs into Faust and Moosk, who are on their own mission to recover a collector's item related to Hershelaneum (Hershey-lane-e-um). Abby, understanding that she may be in over her head with both Father and the DCFDTL, name-drops Father to entice Faust to join her as her backup, just to piss Father off. Moosk is sent back with the item, and Faust follows Abby into the mountain.
Abby soon understands why Father needs someone with ice powers, as she and Faust stumble upon several puzzles that require them. The surroundings were too hot to bring in anything cold. If it weren't for Faust's white suit, she would've quickly become dehydrated from it. Despite the suit, it's clear she's slowing down. After solving them and entering the final chamber where a dark brown tablet stood on a pedestal, Abby ponders why they hadn't seen Father or the young cryomancer who sent out the distress call. When Faust tells her that, to her knowledge, there are no cryomancers around Abby's age anywhere in the world, Abby, too late, realizes she has been duped and has walked into a trap. Within moments, the two were surrounded by Ice Cream Men pointing ice cream rifles at them. Father enters from behind, clapping slowly and thanking them for getting him through the puzzles.
Father reveals that the boy never existed and the whole thing was a ruse to lure one of the KND to the location to handle the puzzles, as all other attempts had failed due to the heat in the area. He guessed correctly that they would reach out to Faust to help once they realized they couldn't do it without her. Abby tries to gather as much information from Father as she can about what exactly he's after, to which the villain obliges. The recipe he's after is a complicated one called the Decadent Molten Lava Ice Cream Cake, and he plans to use it for a contest that serves adults only. Faust tells him that he could have just asked for help instead, but he brushes it off as "no fun" to do so. A childish argument ensues after she retorts that he's "no fun," allowing Abby to turn her attention toward the tablet. A fight breaks out once Father notices the distraction, and Abby has to dodge his fireballs and the Ice Cream Men who gave chase. Father is temporarily dispatched when Faust grabs the back of his suit and jams snow down it, leaving the Ice Cream Men. After several back-and-forths where the tablet passes through everyone's hands, including Faust's, it ends up in Father's hands. Before Faust or Abby can stop him, Father creates a large fireball and slams it into the floor, which awakens Mount Fudgsuvius, and it becomes a race to escape, though it is clear he is doing everything in his power to make sure they can't.
To Abby's dismay, Father gets away with the tablet and believes he won, but Faust hands her her phone, showing that while Faust had the tablet, she was able to take several photos of it, clear enough to show the recipe. Father was right about one thing: the cake recipe looked nearly impossible to make, to which Faust tells Abby about the pastry shop across the way from Wish Liszt, owned by a Sweets Witch* who could probably take a stab at it. The witch happened to be a rival of Father's in dessert contests and, like her grandmother before her, actually liked kids, so if they could get to the witch in time and have her make it first, Father wouldn't be able to submit the cake as his own. The kids would also be able to have a piece of the cake. Abby, hesitant to involve another adult at first, reluctantly agrees.
The plan goes off without a hitch, and Father ends up losing the contest when his cake collapses, netting a win for the Sweets Witch and cake and a new adult ally for the KND.
*The Sweets Witch belongs to my roommate and is the granddaughter of Grandma Stuffums. I have artwork of the witch, but I don't have enough information to post about her past this. I don't even remember her name, it's been so long.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faust reaches out to Sector V with a proposal. She would like to go out with someone, but because she has the attention of the adult villains, she's terrified one of them would show up and ruin the date. She emphasizes the importance of this, as she rarely finds herself liking another adult enough to spend time with them in a romantic sense. And she REALLY likes this person. To avoid killing someone over it and potentially scaring the person of interest off, she enlists Sector V to keep any known adult villains at bay in exchange for several snow days to be used at their discretion, regardless of whether the date goes well or not. The kids just had to run interference on any adult villain who got close enough.
Sector V immediately accepts and stakes out the place where Faust and her date would spend the evening for dinner. Numbuh 3 and 4 posed as the hostess and waiter for Faust's area as 2 and 5 hung back in the kitchen, keeping watch. Numbuh 2 and 5 find that Robin Food and his band of men are legitimate employees, but they don't seem interested in bothering Faust or her date. They seem to avoid the table altogether. The night goes on without any significant issues, and the kids begin to drop their guard, only to notice a waiter slip up to the table in an obvious white wig with a matching mustache. The look on Faust's face when she glanced up at him told the kids she recognized the guy, but no one in the Sector did. Her eyelid flickers before her eyes dart in Numbuh 4's direction. After engaging the waiter, Faust's date stood to go to the restroom, leaving her alone at the table with the new waiter. The moment the date is out of sight, the waiter rips away the disguise and reveals himself to be the Toiletnator, but before he can finish the first gloating sentence, he is grabbed by the collar, and his head meets the table in rapid succession.
Faust, face reddened out of embarrassment, stops and grips his neck, hissing that if he didn't want to experience frostbite in areas he didn't know he had, he better leave before her date got back. When Toiletnator refuses to leave until he avenges Mr. Boss's car, Wally, still dressed as a waiter, intervenes and makes the rest of the restaurant's patrons think that Toiletnator is a plumber, escorting him toward the back of the eatery. The adult villain is confused at this but says that he wouldn't mind looking at the plumbing if it really needed it. The moment the doors to the kitchen closed, the Toiletnator could be heard getting beaten up, causing Faust to grin mischievously while running her finger around the rim of her drink. Her date returns and playfully asks her why she was smiling, and she simply tells him the new waiter had "ate it" in the kitchen while carrying hot dishes. She turns her attention back to him with a bright, happy expression, clearly smitten, when he chuckles, and the camera pans over to show Father, as Ben, smiling smugly back.
