Timmy Turner is a typical 10-year-old boy with a not-so-typical life. He has two fairy godparents, Cosmo and Wanda, who grant him wishes whenever he wants. In season 4 episode 8 titled "Mr. Right / Baby Face," Timmy makes two wishes that lead to chaos and hilarity.
In the first part of the episode, "Mr. Right," Timmy wishes for a perfect matchmaker to help his dad find a new girlfriend. Cosmo and Wanda grant the wish, and Mr. Right, a genie in a bottle, appears. However, Mr. Right is not what Timmy was expecting. He's a macho man who believes that the most important thing in a relationship is winning arguments. Despite his misguided advice, Mr. Right successfully helps Timmy's dad find a girlfriend. But when Timmy's dad starts prioritizing winning arguments over love, Timmy realizes that Mr. Right's definition of a perfect match is not what he wants for his dad.
In the second part of the episode, "Baby Face," Timmy wishes to be a baby again so he can avoid doing his chores. Cosmo and Wanda grant the wish, but instead of turning Timmy into a baby, they turn him into a giant baby with the mind of a 10-year-old. Timmy enjoys his new baby persona until he realizes that he still has to do chores, but now they're even more difficult to complete as a giant baby. When Timmy's parents see him as a giant baby, they scream in terror and call child services. Timmy eventually learns that being a baby is not as great as it seems and wishes to become a regular 10-year-old again.
Overall, "Mr. Right / Baby Face" is a fun and entertaining episode of The Fairly OddParents that showcases Timmy's relationship with his dad and his desire to avoid responsibilities. The episode also highlights the danger of relying on others to make decisions for us and the importance of being true to ourselves.
