Dr Ox's Experiment
by Julia Sabin and Mike Sylvia, with performances by Wes Carroll
ANSWER: BROTHER JUNIPER
The video blog entries are styled after those from the hit web series "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.". Each video mentions a character from the series and describes a mistake made by Dr. Horrible during his various escapades. These are each entries in Peter's Evil Overlord List, a viral comedy piece listing stereotypical supervillain blunders. This list is clued by the flavor text as #17 is "When I employ people as advisors, I will occasionally listen to their advice."
Indexing into the names of the characters by each digit of the number on the list yields the answer BROTHER JUNIPER.
| Video | Character | Evil Overlord List Item | Letters |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bad Horse | #16 (I will never utter the sentence "But before I kill you, there's just one thing I want to know") | B, R |
| 2 | Moist | #25 (No matter how well it would perform, I will never construct any sort of machinery which is completely indestructible except for one small and virtually inaccessible vulnerable spot) | O, T |
| 3 | Fake Thomas Jefferson | #64 (I will see a competent psychiatrist and get cured of all extremely unusual phobias and bizarre compulsive habits which could prove to be a disadvantage) | H, E |

| 5 | Johnny Snow | #1 (My Legions of Terror will have helmets with clear plexiglass visors, not face-concealing ones) | J |
| 6 | Pink Pummeler | #63 (Bulk trash will be disposed of in incinerators, not compactors. And they will be kept hot, with none of that nonsense about flames going through accessible tunnels at predictable intervals) | U, N |
