On April 13, 2021 MCToon had Flatter Day Saints on his channel for a debate. During the debate, FDS made spontaneous, unwarranted accusations about Toon having a child in his basement.

Initial Accusation

FDS claimed that rainbows were caused by the firmament and that “You cannot recreate a rainbow in a house without a concave mirror.”[1]

To debunk this, Toon queued up a video by Jimbo Science called “Indoor Rainbow, Flat Earth Debunk”, where a father and his children spray water to create a rainbow inside their garage. As Toon brought it onscreen, the video was paused, showing a child sitting on the floor with his hand on a water valve.

The Jimbo Science kid in a garage helping with a science demonstration.

Before Toon had a chance to explain anything or play the video, FDS spontaneously leapt to making filthy, unwarranted accusations that the child was imprisoned by Toon, possibly a victim of kidnapping or molestation:

FDS: Is that a picture live from your basement, Micktoon?

Toon: No.

FDS: Oh, okay.

Toon: You said—

FDS: I was gonna say, I wouldn’t call the cops if it was, but I would just pray for you, you know, that you let him go. I’m just saying though.

Toon: So here you go.

Toon plays the video

Toon: Got a pipe with a valve on it, and then he’s gonna—

FDS: Does that kid have a shackle around his leg?

Toon: I don’t think so. So here’s the light—

FDS: I thought you guys were preparing that walnut sauce, you know what I mean? For you—

Toon: Alright. You see that light?

FDS: Okay, cool.
