"Ok, let's go over what happened." WordGirl begins as she, Huggy, and MathWiz start analyzing what happened.
"Granny May robs the jewelry store and uses some kind of ray on us." MathWiz states.
"Why didn't your reflectors work?"
"The ray seems to effect the mind." Huggy pipes up and WordGirl bites her lip.
"Yes, I know that Mr. Big likes using mind control...,are you saying that Mr. Big is helping Granny May?" WordGirl asks her eyes widening at that horrifying possibility.
"The device was in the standard ray form Dr. Two Brains uses." MathWiz adds.
"Great, Two Brains, Mr. Big, and Granny May all together...," she is interrupted by Huggy and her eyes bug out further. "You're right Huggy! Mr. Big might have recruited all of our enemies in some sort of super villain crime ring."
"Would Mr. Big have done this if I weren't here?" MathWiz asks.
"No, he probably would have done this sooner or later. You coming into the picture just sped things up." she says and embraces him.

"Now that's results." Mr. Big gloats as Leslie puts the Hoboken diamond in a case in the conference room.
"I've been trying to steal that thing for years. It's so shiny." The Butcher states.
"Stop drooling. Now, what is the next phase in this big plan of yours?" Dr. Two Brains asks.
"Butcher, you and Chuck shall rob the bank and take the...,"
"Hold it!" Dr. Two Brains stops Mr. Big.
"What?" Mr. Big asks his thunder stolen.
"Using the same trick twice won't work. They're too smart. Hey Butcher, didn't you discover a weakness of MathWiz's?" Two Brains asks.
"No, but I found out that MathWiz is allergic to shrimp." The Butcher answers.
"Discover means to find something out. Chuck, do you have something that'll make the shrimp stick to that human calculator's costume?" Two Brains asks.
"My honey mustard should do the trick, but I'm not used to working with another." Chuck complains.
"Hey, meat's in sandwiches isn't it?" The Butcher asks.
"Hey, you're right. This won't be the disaster like when the Whammer decided he was going to be my side kick." Chuck says now more confident in the plan.
"Can I speak to you?" Mr. Big quietly requests of Two Brains. The two go outside the conference room.
"I know what you're about to say, so just listen. We can't over use the new mind control ray. They'll eventually figure a way to counter its effects. These aren't normal crime fighting kid super heroes. They are both very intelligent. MathWiz is the key to Team Alphanumeric's defeat. He's the weak link and by proxy WordGirl's weakness." Dr. Two Brains explains.
"I've never thought of that. Ok, how about I make you second in command of our little crime ring?" Mr. Big asks.
"I'll be delighted to. I also want to bring my henchmen in as well."
"Agreed."
"I'll be there to help Chuck and The Butcher escape from WordGirl's wrath. If they do this right, she'll be madder than a wet hornet's nest."

Tim lays on his back in front of the Botsford's television set. He wasn't paying much attention to the program like Becky was. She doesn't notice his half lidded gaze he was giving her.
'Am I causing more problems than I'm solving?' he thinks. 'Our relationship is very new and all of her enemies seem to want to use that against her. If I were a normal human, I would be a liability, but I'm not normal nor human. Heck, I'm not a normal Decimalian, or whatever my race calls themselves. If I could get my hands on that ray then I might be able to come up with a counter.' His brooding thoughts didn't allow him to notice that Becky had popped off to the bathroom and TJ had taken her spot.
"I don't get you, Tim." TJ begins.
"Hmmmm?" Tim asks not realizing who he was talking to.
"You spend eight hours with my sister at school, and then turn around and spend at least another two or three hours with her here. Why would you do that? I can't stand thirty minutes with her."
"You'll understand when you grow up." Tim says smiling.
"If growing up means I have to hang around a girl all day, then I don't want to grow up." TJ retorts.
"Move it or lose it TJ." Becky says coming back into the room. Tim tunes out the bickering.
'Why does Huggy always get so defensive about anything having to do with Becky's home world? All I wanted was the ship's star charts in order to see if I can find out which star may be the one that her planet is orbiting. It was like pulling teeth trying to convince Huggy to let me have them. What is he hiding, and is he hiding it to protect Becky?' Tim's thoughts stop as his super hearing picks up the bank's alarm.
"Beck?" Tim asks.
"The bank. Let's go." she quietly says as the two sneak up to Becky's room to fly out the window.

Even though the trio had been prepared to find more than one super villain robbing the bank, the three were still shocked that Chuck the Evil Sandwich Making Guy and The Butcher were working together. Then, the brawl began with meat and condiments flying all over the place. WordGirl and Huggy took The Butcher while Tim, knowing that The Butcher could take him quickly out of action, took on Chuck. The good guys were wearing down the two villains. Then, MathWiz's footing was impeded by coleslaw. The boy's forced decrease of speed allowed Chuck to coat MathWiz in honey mustard. Being covered from head to tow blinded the boy so it was to late when The Butcher's Shrimp barrage hit him as well. MathWiz could feel the rashes starting to flare up and his breathing passages start to close up.
"Huggy! Get those shrimp off of him, now!" WordGuirl shouts to Huggy and then bolts after the fleeing criminals.

"Phew, he's going to be alright." she says looking at Tim who's body was submerged into a tub full of water. The two villains had jumped into Dr. Two Brains's repaired mouse rocket and had rocketed off. With the criminals out of her range, she had quickly gone back to Tim and flew him back to his home. She frantically searched through his medicine cabinet for the non-discrete box with Tim's 'special powder' in it. It was something that Tim had come up with after the first time he'd been almost exposed to The Butcher's Shrimp. Becky looks down at the relaxed boy as the powder cleared up his sinuses and that horrid rash she had seen. His eyes slowly open to see Becky's looking back at him.
"So, emergency plan 1999 worked." he quietly says with a smile.
"How many emergency plans do we have now, Huggy?" she asks the monkey who pipes up with an answer.
"I'm sorry. I'm becoming a burden aren't I?"
"Don't say that." she says kneeling in front of the tub. "We're just having a bad spot of luck. We'll recover." she says stroking his cheek with her hand.
"We need to...,borrow one of those ray guns from Mr. Big. If I can take one of them apart I might be able to come up with some sort of counter measure."
"Hmmmm, steeling from Mr. Big...,now that's a novel concept." Becky says smiling at the irony.

"Well, that went according to plan." Dr. Two Brains states.
"Yes! Now, it's time for phase...," Mr. Big starts but his assistant stops him.
"I think you better see this." Leslie states turning on the TV which displays a prison that was nothing now but a crater.
"What happened there?" Dr. Two Brains asks.
"It's some sort of mad Arabian bomber super criminal. He's one of MathWiz's enemies." Leslie explains.
"Well...,what does he want?" Mr. Big asks.
"To blow MathWiz and all American super heroes off the face of the planet." Leslie answers.
"Darn it, we'll just wait until Team Alphanumeric deals with that maniac." Mr. Big states.
"Uh, shouldn't we want this mad bomber to get rid of them?" Chuck asks.
"Not if it'll take the city with them!" Dr. Two Brains states.
"Correct. That would be bad for business." Mr. Big states turning off the TV.
