The Smell of Fear

The Smell of Fear is the 25th episode of Danny Phantom: The New Adventures.

Summary
Sam gathers her roses from the garden for Friday's homecoming dance in Casper High, when a smelly ghost named Stinkweed (Undergrowth's possible cousin) terrorizes the school by spreading stinky hydrogen sulfide gas, causing roses to wilt and forcing the school to close until further notice. With the help of Sam, Tucker, Jazz, and the students, armed with gas masks, Danny, protected by his cold, must know how to stop him from stinking up the whole school in order to find out the solution before homecoming starts in time.

Plot
Cold Opening: It starts off with Sam Manson in her greenhouse gathering her red and pink roses for Friday's homecoming dance in Casper High. Just then Danny (who suffers a sneezing sinus congestion, which prevents him from smelling anything) and Tucker eventually enter the greenhouse as they gather Sam's pink chrysanthemums and orange posies for the homecoming as well. Once they leave for Casper High, what they do not know is that Undergrowth's possible cousin, a smelly ghost named Stinkweed, eyes them heading to Casper High, spreading stinky sulfur gas all over the neighborhood.

Trivia

 * This episode is just like the Inspector Gadget episode "Smeldorado" where both protagonists are protected by their sinus congestion against the foul-smelling odor.
 * The gas masks Danny's friends and schoolmates wear are recycled from its brief appearance in "Prisoners of Love" when Danny cleans up the lab; the only difference is that the hose apparatus of each mask is replaced with a different one.
