In season 1, episode 15 titled "Ophthalmophobia," Figaro's fear of being stared at takes center stage. At the start of the episode, Figaro avoids going outside, knowing that people will be looking at him. He even goes as far as to put a paper bag over his head to protect himself from any unwanted stares.

Despite his precautions, Figaro is still unable to escape the eyes of others. One particular instance involves Figaro needing to cross a busy street, but he is too afraid to do so due to the many people around him. As he hesitates, a group of bullies approach him and start to taunt him.

Figaro's phobia only gets worse as the episode progresses, with him eventually becoming trapped in a staring contest with a statue. He is unable to break the gaze and becomes consumed by his fear.

Fortunately, Figaro has a good support system in the form of his friends and family. They encourage him to confront his fear and offer him helpful advice and coping mechanisms to overcome it.
