Plot
Percy announces he's giving up his Ghost Scaring Machine, but it soon becomes clear that the machine is good for more than just scaring ghosts.
Sure the episode was about the Ghost-Scaring Machine can useful for other things. But the majority of this episode was so boring to sit through with Percy just showing everyone what the machine could do. I wish the episode was about Percy giving up the ghost machine and tries to find ways for it to be useful despite what his friends say until he accepts reality and realises that he's just growing up and he would have good memories of the machine helping him because he had mangaed to get through with his fear of ghosts and now he could be brave without it. It would've been a good emotional episode that many kids might find it relevant to something in their lives. It would actually give the title more meaning. For the episode itself when it comes to the title, why not just call it 'The Biggest Adventure Machine' as Percy mentioned at the end of the episode?
Honestly, this episode is very boring.
