On [[Halloween]] 2019, after [[the Great Ghost's legion]] invaded, [[Pythagoras-858]] gathered up the Problem-Solvers. After the [[One-Way Forced Spirit Realm Gateway]] transported a few Cupids including Pythe to the [[Spirit Realm]] by accident, the remaining Problem-Solvers inspected it, but were unable to find the reverse switch until Pythe himself managed to materialise in [[Juliet-178]]'s house like a [[ghost]] and tell her how to do it. Subsequently, the Problem-Solvers, [[Technophile-963]] and [[Igor-1612]] boarded a [[Fog Ship]] and flew it to the abandoned [[Prime Universe]] theatre where the spirits had retreated to make the kidnapped [[Frankenstein-818]] create a [[Reverse Spirit Realm Gateway]]. There, the Problem-Solvers managed to sneak Frankenstein safely off the stage while the ghosts were defeated.

When the [[Skirmish at the Cupid Theatre]] broke out between [[Paintbrush-122]] and [[Sketchbook-430]], Valerius was the only member of the Department of Problem-Solving who could be reached at short notice. Observing the fight and the argument on which it rested, Valerius merely commented that “one of them was probably lying about the other being the plagiarist — unless he wasn’t, in which case it was out of his hands and the [[Department of Paradoxes]] should be notified”, and did not actually achieve anything in terms of breaking up the fight itself.
