With the exception of Tigress (Kari Wahlgren), the entire Valley of Peace anxiously turns out when the contemplative Master Yao (Paul Rugg) arrives for one day offering a wonder and wisdom exchange from sun up to sun down by agreeing to answer a single question for every new wonder presented to them. While some, like Po (Mick Wingert), squander the opportunity on frivolous trivia, other such as Taotie (Wallace Shawn) use the unique situation to find the single answer he needs to complete his Sphere of Unerringly Accurate Acupressure and destroy the Dragon Warrior and the Furious Five.
When the villagers start running out of wonders to share and begin getting unruly, Tigress spirits Master Yao to safety. While her teammates find themselves under the control of Taotie's new machine which attacks acupressure points to control its victims, Tigress is forced to confront her own buried curiosity to find the answer she needs to save her friends.
The Sphere of Unerringly Accurate Acupressure certainly ranks as one of the show's more ridiculous creations, but the giant accupressure ball proves to be quite formidable to each of the masters of Kung Fu (who find themselves forced to act out ridiculous sitautions until Tigress returns to save the day with Box Fu). And the episode also offers a moment of uncertainty and tenderness from its most hardcore character which fans of Tigress should certainly enjoy.
