Good Wilt Hunting

Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is having their annual five-year reunion with their creators. However, Wilt decides to run away. This results in a chase around the world, in which Bloo, Mac, and the rest of the fosters and foster creators attempt to bring Wilt back home. Along the way, Wilt gets off track when he helps out a variety of individuals in a town. Eventually, Wilt gets arrested for accidently assisting some burglars when they moved some furniture to their truck. The following morning, the Foster's gang checks out of a motel, and are about to give up on their mission and just hope that Wilt decides to come back in the near future. While going in the bus, they spot the same three criminals trying to hot-wire the bus. After finding out that Wilt's in jail, the group head over there only to find out that Wilt was freed from moving all of the lawns in a nearby suburban area. At this point, they group assumes that Wilt must be after his original creator. Mac then discovers that Walt's owner is in Japan.

Meanwhile, Wilt finally arrives at the basketball court he and his creator used to play at. There, he is greeted by an imaginary friend from his past: a basketball scoreboard friend named Stats. Wilt reveals that he is back for a rematch against Foul Larry, and that his deformaties originated from him losing the game to save his owner. Despite this, Wilt loses the match again. As Wilt lies down on the ground in defeat, he is greeted by not originally his friends - but also his own creator - Jordan Michaels (a parody of Michael Jordan). Jordan explains to Wilt that he was never upset with Wilt, but only with himself. He stated that he looked for him everywhere after that game 30 years ago but was unable to find him, and explained how he not only made him a better basketball player, but made him a better person. In return, Jordan offers Wilt fame and a place to stay in his mansion. However, Wilt decides to stay back at Foster's so he could someday be adopted by another kid. The special ends with Wilt and Jordan playing a lopsided game of one-on-one basketball at Foster's.
