Return of Keef is an unfinished episode of Invader Zim.

SynopsisEdit

One day at Skool, Zim dumps a blue liquid onto Dib that makes someone explode if they're happy. However, Dib is quick to point out the obvious hole in Zim's logic: He is never happy, especially while Zim is around. When Zim leaves Dib, Keef approaches Dib, and expresses a desire to get Dib and Zim to "make up" (assuming the two enemies are best friends). Dib refutes this assumption, but then, this gives him an idea, and claims he is friends with Zim. Dib tells Keef to put a Brain Rotter machine on Zim's head, but Keef attaches the machine on Zim's backside instead. Discovering the device, Zim quickly attaches the machine on Dib's head. Later that day, Dib finds Keef sitting on the couch and watching TV with Gaz and Professor Membrane at their house. He promptly kicks him out, but quickly returns, decorating Dib's room with ridiculously happy stuff. Keef spends the next few days alternately irritating Zim and Dib with his misguided attempts to make the two "friends" reconcile.

The following day, Zim and Dib hatch a plan to get rid of their mutual nuisance, and the two agree to meet Keef at MacMeaties, pour Zim's emotional explosion solution on Keef, and make him explode with happiness by pretending to be his friends. Oddly enough, this proves unusually difficult to achieve, for it appears the solution only works if the subject it has been applied to is extremely happy. Finally, Zim and Dib are forced to hug each other in order to make Keef's head explode. Afterwards, Dib reveals that he taped Zim saying that he's an alien, but Zim reminds Dib that the video also shows them hugging, so Dib destroys it.
