Story※

Prunelle definitively replaced Fantasio. He begins——to swear some "Grdidji" and the famous "Rogntudju". Several running gags feature new Gaston's inventions. Bubulle, "Gaston 's fish," appears for the "first time."

Inventions※

• bomb against termites: bomb——to be, placed in each cupboard
• giant insecticide: very handful spray. But much too powerful
• cuckoo clock: cuckoo taking the form of a spaceship
• alarm clock: device which explodes when turned on
• giant fly: made of papier-mâché, wood and cardboard, "the fly is too realistic." And frightening
• personal atmosphere: invented perfume for Gaston's personal office which attracts horses
• special transformer: a transformer to allow Christmas strings to flash on and off, but too much powerful, so that it has effects on neighbouring houses
• experiment to extract energy from mouvements: when one tries to open the doors in the offices, it turns out to be very difficult
• a portable version of the Gaffophone, played in the woods for M'oiselle Jeanne, resulting to a catastrophic fall of the leaves from the nearby trees
