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.
