Synopsis
It's 1880 and Professor Elemental is in Elemental manor, firing his third assistant this week. Craving some lovely Darjeeling the Professor summons his butler, only to remember that the Butler quit planning on working somewhere more peaceful. Frustrated the Professor decides to finish construction of his airship, the HMS Incidental alone.

Two months later construction of the airship is finished and along with a crew of Badgermingos the Professor sets sail for adventure, leaving the Badgermingos to pilot the ship as he dozes, dreaming of his feud with Mr. B.  When he awakens he discovers that the Incidental has arrived in the Congo and leaps out of the ship to explore, only to be startled by an Orangutan. By luck, fortune or convenient plot device the Professor remembers he packed his Human-Orangutan translation device and converses with the Ape, learning that he wishes to leave the Congo. The Professor remembers his childhood, telling his father that one day he'll have a monkey butler named Geoffrey, and christens his new Orangutan companion as such. The pair of them board the Incidental once more and fly back to Elemental manor for a lovely relaxing cup of tea. Until the Professor realises that Geoffrey has reorganised the laboratory that is.

Synopsis
In Elemental Manors, 1880 the Professor is smitten in love with Sadie Bell. He laments to Geoffrey about her recent rejection of him, in part due to the inclusion of Cyber Wasps at the Duchesses party. Not only that but Mr Belmont is attempting to court her as well with his waxed moustache and foreign guitar. He realises, as only the Professor can, that the only way to win Miss Bell's affection is to create an arboretum for her, filled with every known plant in the world.

The Professor and Geoffrey board the HMS Incidental and begin to travel the world gathering up plants and flowers from across the world, facing off against Rhino's, Samurai and other unsavoury individuals. After some time travelling the pair return home and the Professor sets up the arboretum awaiting the arrival of Miss Bell.

Miss Bell arrives at the arboretum in time to find the Professor and Geoffrey armed with an axe in combat with a killer plant, but as the plant dies the Professor assures her it was the only one and everything is now safe. Touched by his efforts Sadie walks with the professor through the arboretum, unaware the pair of them are being watched by a pair of Cyber Wasps.

Synopsis
A comic book retelling of the song of the same name.

At the Fotherington's Gentlemen's club of London in 1881 the club members are sat around, unhappy at the recent exploits of one Professor Elemental. At that moment he arrives with the Quantum Synthesia Device, intent on regaling the club with stories of his Quest for the Golden Frog.

Attaching several club members to the device, Elemental begins to recount the story of how he, aboard the HMS Incidental traveled the world to locate the mystic frog.

In the first week of his journey he crash lands the Incidental on a desert island where the natives proclaim him their god, or perhaps king, that is until they drag him off to the nearest volcano and he is forced to flee.

Over the following week the Professor uses the debris of the Incidental to create a makeshift raft, sailing into a heavy storm and harnessing the lightning to once more return to the skies.

The validity of the third week of the Professor's quest has been called into question as he claims to have visited both Wonderland and Oz, as well as travelling the entire world from London to Australia in under a week. What has been confirmed is that a large quantity of absinthe was consumed in the week.

Failing to locate the frog the Professor returns back home where he finds the Golden Frog laying underneath his sofa from a wager he had won the previous week.

As the Professor finishes his story he finds that the Fotherington's Gentlemen's Club has emptied out.

Trivia
There are certain members of the Fotherington's Gentlemen's Club whom believe this entire story has been made up. Mostly due to the fact that the Professor claims to have been travelling for nearly four weeks (including potentially fictional locations) despite having only won the Golden Frog one week prior to his meeting in the club.
