Cheeseburger Family is the eleventh episode of Glass Paradise. The episode takes place after the Midnight City arc.

Summary
Some time after the events of Episode 13: Midnight City (Part 2), Mulholland Merritt and Oliver Roswell bump into each other at the library. Mud demands his five dollars. Their chatter annoys Octavia Zeppeli, who storms over to ask them to leave. Objects begin disappearing around them, but they only take note when a slice of cake Alien Boy was enjoying vanishes. Octavia quickly restrains him with Live and Let Die before he can throw a tantrum.

The gang makes nice for the time being and begins scouting. They figure out that only small things are missing, so Octavia attaches one of Live and Let Die's strings to a bell on Mud's hair clip. The bell disappears, but the string hasn't been cut. Oliver and Mud follow the string while Octavia goes to find Pearl.

The two boys track the string to the farmers' market, where they find a congregation of Glass Sharks seemingly searching for something. Octavia winds up there as well and asks Pearl for his help, only to find that he can't help because his pearl has disappeared. He joins the search party, which begins chasing the string into a sewer. They find a small boy with a shopping cart. He introduces himself as Mikey Thompson and gives them a tour of the small, multi-layered city in the cart, calling it his "Cheeseburger Family". It's populated with the missing objects, each with small limbs and faces.

The group explains that the items have been stolen and asks him to return them. Mud, also an orphan, offers to hang out with Mikey. Mikey apologizes and agrees to redistribute the items once they've finished living out their lives.
