Synopsis[]
When Tommy’s brother Donnie destroys Tommy’s newly built tree house, Robotboy builds him a “smart” tree house” complete with high tech defense system and features designed to meet each and every need of Tommy and his friends. The kids are soon so dependent on the tree house that they can’t pull themselves away from it and Robotboy feels compelled to deactivate it. This convinces the tree house that Robotboy’s its enemy and an all out robot vs. tree war breaks out.

- S.M.T.H.R.S.: [After S.M.T.H.R.S. ties up Tommy and commits treason] "I'm afraid I can't do that, Tommy!"
Trivia[]
- The first and only appearance of S.M.T.H.R.S.
- This is the second time Donnie sees Robotboy in normal mode. The first time was Time Transmission and the third time is Donnie Turnbull's Day Off.
- The title might be a reference to the phrase "up a creek without a paddle", which means to be in a very difficult situation. This is all too relevant to the predicament kids find themselves in when S.M.T.H.R.S holds them hostage as he battles Robotboy.
- When S.M.T.H.R.S attacks Robotboy and ties up Tommy on his gaming chair he tells him: "I'm afraid I can't do that Tommy.", this line is a reference to the 1968 epic science fiction film 2001: A Space Odyssey especially to the character HAL 9000 when he tells to one of the astronauts: "I'm sorry Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that", similar the way S.M.T.H.R.S makes treason.
- An episode of Adventure Time shares the same title as this episode.
- When S.M.T.H.R.S was being made, a sound from Codename: Kids Next Door can be heard.
