Attention!

I have a proclamation
of an unprecedented magnitude.


[crickets chirping]

[sighs]

I have an important announcement.

[all] Oh.

Let's congratulate Agent Carl
from Accounting


for taking down MAD's
second in command.


[applause]

That's right! Talon has been caught!

[screaming]

No!

- No, no, no, no, no!
- [Inspector Gadget] Wowzers!

Going from Accounting to Field Work
in his first week on the job?

Carl is truly HQ's most promising agent.
Can you believe it, Penny?

[stammers]
But I was supposed to catch you!

Ha! You?
Puh-lease.

Agent Carl had to chase me
across a runaway train

as it crashed down a mountain,
through an expl*si*n of poison gas.

I heard Carl found him
shopping for hair gel.

Apparently,
someone called in an anonymous tip

to the Crime Snitchers Hotline.

[both] What?!

- I was ratted out?
- When I find that snitch...

I'll tell them that they should
have contacted me first.

Penny, come enjoy some
of Agent Carl's victory cake.

It was specially baked to commemorate
Agent Carl's amazing accomplishment.

[groans]

Go, go, Gadget, cake slicer.

[whirring]

- [screams]
- Chief!

You've finally found a disguise
as sweet as you are.

[chuckles]

[clears throat] You've got a mission.

With his second in command captured,
Dr. Claw will appoint a new number two.


It's of the utmost importance
we find out who it will be


and stop them before they start.

This message will self-destruct.

A new number two?

I guess the consolation prize
for not capturing my mortal enemy

could be figuring out
who my new mortal enemy is.

Evil stinks, Chief.

Luckily, you can count on me to sniff out
this stinky new number two. Onwards.

- No!
- [beeping]

[grunts]

[groans] Just wait HQ.

Uncle Claw is gonna be so mad,
when he discovers I'm gone.

[Dr. Claw cheering]

- He's finally gone!
- [trumpet blows]

[both laugh]

But the time to celebrate is over.

I need a new number two.

- Which of you fools will it be?
- [crashes]

I'll take over for Talon, Dr. Claw.

The name's Malicious.

I'm your intern.

But I've got ambitions
beyond the hate mail room.

I'm ready to be your number two.

You want some real
on the job experience?

Then go get us some
delectable Sweety Scout cookies.

- Now!
- I'll get you a cookie.

A cookie by the name of Inspector Gadget.

Our intel said the new number two
might be around here somewhere.

But any one of these could be a MAD lair.

Hmm. My money's on the candy shop.

[sighs]

Or it could be the one with the MAD logo.

But why would MAD make a lair so obvious?

Good point, Penny.

Maybe MAD's been incognito for so long
they've become out-cognito.

I'm gonna take a closer look.
You stay with Uncle Gadget

- while I scope the perimeter.
- [barks]

[grunts]

[groans]

[Malicious] Dolla?

- [gasps]
- It is you!

What's my best frienemy doing here?

Mal! It's been so long.

I'm Penny Crime.

"Penny's" too small time.

I'm gonna call you Dolla Bill.

Best frienemies forever?

So, you still, uh, evil?

[slurps]

Most def. You still, um, good?

Hey, word on the street
is Claw's looking for a new number two.

Know anything about it?

You know, Dolla,

because we're friends,
I'm gonna help you and your uncle.

Wow! Really?

You're such a good-slash-bad
friend, Mal...

Hey! What're you... [groans]

[screams, grunts]

Actually, I'm just a bad friend.

Sorry, Dolla, this is just biz.

But I can already tell,

it's gonna be great working together
as your new arch enemy.

[groans]

[laughs]

[slurps]

Brain, Mal's the new number two
and she's headed your way.


She's crafty,
so don't let her near Uncle Gadget.


[whimpers]

- [Gadget] Come on, Brain.
- [gasps]

This nice young lady
is the MAD lair's property manager.

- [snarls]
- And she's going to let us in.

[barking]

Brain! Bad Dog!

I don't know what's gotten into him,
he usually loves property mana... Whoa!

And I thought getting rid of Talon
was going to be the easy part.

Brain! Brain!

[groans] Signal's jammed.

[beeps]

What the hack?

But I always break MAD's encryption.

What if I try...

[gasps, screams]

[grunts]

Whoa, Mal's really putting
the 'enemy' in frienemy.

How am I gonna rescue Uncle Gadget
and Brain if I can't break into...?

[groans] Talon.

This is cruel and unusual punishment.

I haven't seen my reflection in hours.

[Penny] Need one of these?

[gasps]

Let me guess,
you missed me too much to stay away?

Ha! I've had my hands full
with MAD's new number two, Mal.

What? Uncle Claw replaced me?

With the intern? [scoffs]

Who do you think snitched on you?

She stole my gig?

I may be a villain, and a thief,

and a crook,
but Mal just crossed the line!

I know, right? She stole my glory.

And my uncle. And my dog.

Here's the deal.

I'm gonna take her down,

but I need the code to the MAD lair
on Green Street.

MAD lair on Green Street? There's no...

Uh, I mean,
I totally know how to get in there.

But I can only do it in person.

And I'll need that mirror.

Hmm.

Yes! Oh, I've missed you so much.

Ew!

These bars are very secure,
Ms. Property Manager.

Imagine the trouble for an HQ agent
if they wound up locked in here.

- [groans]
- I have some biz to take care of.

Don't move.

Titanium locks. Polished concrete floors.

Secure and stylish.

I better take all this great intel down.

Go, go, Gadget, notebook.

[whimpers]

Whoa!

I told you I'd prove myself. And I have.

I captured Gadget.

You were supposed to be getting cookies.

Wait? Did you say you captured Gadget?

- Show me!
- Check it!

MADcat! Roll your eyes at the intern.

[groans]

Okay, funny man. How do we get in?

Um. I'll need my hands free
to punch the code.

[grunts, screams]

- Use your face.
- [screams]

Not working?

Fine, hands it is.

Let's see. The code is...

- [beeps]
- ...four, three, two, one. Ha!

- [beeping]
- Nope, that's not it.

You don't know the codes
to your own MAD lairs?

This isn't a MAD lair, Pen.

Look at the logo,
it's some cheap knock-off my usurper

probably painted herself.

Not a MAD lair?

Then what good are you to me?
Oh, wait.

[grunts]

- [clangs]
- Wow, that hair gel is really hard.

[whines]

- [both groan]
- Wowzers!

Look at all the loot MAD's stolen.

These boxes could solve tons
of unsolved cases.

Go, go, Gadget, evidence analyzer.

[whimpers]

We can't leave, Brain.

Not until we uncover all the evidence
from this MAD lair.

Who knows if the property manager
will give us access again.

Hey! Be careful.

If I'm ever gonna get that promotion,
I need you alive and unexploded.

[Penny] Not so fast, Mal.

You're going back
to the hate mail room, snitch.

And I'll make sure there's plenty
of letters for you to sort.

From me! Because I hate you.

Hello, Penny and Penny's friend.

Is the property manager
a friend of yours too?

She's no friend of mine.

Come on, Dolla, we're totes friends,
and friends do each other favors.

Now, do me a favor and surrender
so I can take you and Gadget to Claw.

Ow!

Bad Brain.
Evidence is not to be tampered with.

Go, go, Gadget, evidence collection bag.

Whoa!

Time to reclaim my position
as Uncle Claw's big number two.

Yikes!

[whimpers]

[yelping]

[Inspector Gadget] Wow!

[gasps]

[groans]

Just because it's over for you
doesn't mean our friendship has to be.

Being my prisoner
will be like a sleepover.

- That never ends.
- [gasps]

No one defeats Penny except me!

What he said.

Except for the defeating me part.

Guys, we can talk about this.

[Inspector Gadget] Wowzers!

[yelps]

[Inspector Gadget screaming]

[all groaning]

[crackles]

Uh-oh.

[Mal and Talon scream]

[both groan]

Thanks, Pen.
You got rid of Mal and busted me out.

You're a real pal.

Don't thank me! I'll catch you later!

[groans] Hey!

Come on, Dolla, I thought we were friends.

We are.

That's why you're only going
to medium security prison.

Psst! [clatters]

Great job, Gadget.

You managed to flush out
MAD's new number two.

I couldn't have done it
without the MAD lair's property manager.

I just wish some of the great evidence
she helped me gather made it out.

Oh, wait, there's some.

There you go, Chief.

- [screams]
- [clangs]

[groans]

And the new number two is... Harry.

[grunts]

Not trying to replace me, are you?

If you want your position back,
you'll have to take it from Harry.

- Who? [screams]
- [metal clanging]

Watch your back next time, Talon.

Next time.

Oh! That looked like it hurt.

[giggles]

[Dr. Claw]
Tell me, Talon, what do you see?

A bunch of dirty old rocks.

- Oh, is it the inside of MADcat's head?
- [hisses]

No, you fool, it's victory!

A planetary alignment is about to focus

all the energies of the Cosmos
on Stonehenge,

and I want you to collect it.

With this: the Cosmotronic Collecticator!

[laughs]

Uh, yeah, I'm not sure all those rocks
are gonna fit in there.

I don't want the rocks, you igneous.

I want the cosmic energy.

Legend says it grants untold power.

Ha! I already have that.

Check it, my looks can stun.

Yes, we all know how stunned you are.
Now focus!

I want to rule the world
with my new cosmic abilities.

And impress people with them at parties.

Oh, you're right, I gotta hurry.

Or you'll be stuck trying
to impress people with your personality.

- [gasps] What's wrong with my personality?
- [meowing]

More power, Brain.

- [beeps]
- More. More. [screams]

[groans]

Uh, even more power. [chuckles]

Did someone say "more power"?


More power is always helpful,
as long as it's used for good.

Like how I'm helping to power HQ now.

[alarm beeps]

[computer voice]
Emergency power initiated.

See? Even the computer's helping.

[groans]

Sweet mercy, Gadget,
that's a powerful stench.

You should save your energy
for the next mission.

Stonehenge is about to become the focus
of a once-an-eon planetary alignment.


We believe MAD intends to harvest
the energy it creates.


This cosmic radiation could change people
in unpredictable ways.


It could give them super powers

or transform them
into otherworldly beings.


Your mission:
take MAD down before Claw powers up.


This message will self-destruct.

And if we get to the cosmic energy
before MAD does,

- we'd be super-powered heroes.
- [whimpers]

What? I'd use my powers for good
and, like, science and stuff.

Remember, Penny,
with great power comes...

A huge electricity bill.

I was going to say,
"great responsibility."

Don't worry, Chief,

Inspector Gadget
always takes responsibility.

and gives responsi-ball-ity.

Huh? Ooh! Ow!

[grunts]

[groans]

[thuds]

According to my superhuman
sense of direction,

Stonehenge should be right over...

there!

It seems the cosmic energy is so powerful
it can even transform stones

into much smaller stones.

I wonder if it would work
on Chief's kidney stones.

[Penny]
The planets have started aligning.

- We'd better hurry if we're gonna...
- Watch MAD become all-powerful?

You're right on time.

[laughs]

- Hey!
- [barking]

Sorry, Brain, You can't buy a glow stick
from the shouty salesman

until after the mission is over.

- [groans]
- Huh?

- Ya!
- [yelps]

Wowzers, that salesman really wants
to get our attention.

- [grunts]
- Ooh!

[bleats]

[yelps]

[sighs]

[yelps]

If my knowledge of all things
expl*sive is right,

then that shock wave
could only have come from one thing:

a cosmic energy burst.

[sheep bleating]

[Inspector Gadget]
That's strange. Sheep don't eat apples.

But Penny does. [gasps]

The cosmic energy
must have transformed her into a sheep,

- just like the Chief said it could.
- Huh?

Don't worry Penny,
I'll turn you back into a niece.

Go, go, Gadget, sheep-herder.

- [barks]
- Come back here, Penny.

You may have turned into a sheep
but that's no reason to go on the lam.

Uh... What happened?

I think I was being awesome.

And you were about to be taken down?

Ha! Yeah, that sounds right.

Nice try, but you're the one
about to be taken down.

Uh. Way down?

[both screaming]

[both] What? Huh?

[cheering]

Did we just get cosmic super powers?

Yes!

Right? Check it!

It's crazy windy up here,
yet my hair is still perfect.

Now that's a super power
and so are laser eyes!

Okay, so no laser eyes.

What about electro-fingers?

- [sighs]
- Psionic blast!

Magnetic personality.

Invisibility! Now you see me.

[gasps] Penny? Penny?

If you think you can sneak up on me,
then you're a super fool.

Psych! No invisibility.

[screams, grunts]

Ugh, the pain!

Is what I would say if I felt that.

Maybe you need to find someone
less super to b*at on.

Ooh, good call, Pen.

And there's a whole world out there
just waiting for that.

Gotta fly! For realsies!

[groans]

[bleats]

Brain, grab Sheep-Penny
while I distract her.

Go, go, Gadget, niece attention diverter.

- [screams]
- [expl*si*n]

I am really good at distractions.

- [bleats]
- [yelps]

No, Brain.

You were supposed to grab Penny,
not me. Bad dog.

[gasps, sighs]

Whoa! People look like ants from up here.

And I bet they squish just as easily.

Hey! Whoa!

Yeesh, you'd think
phenomenal cosmic powers

- would've made you harder to catch.
- [groans]

[grunts, screams]

Ow! Ow! Ow! Oh, boy.

[elephant trumpets]

- Fore!
- [elephant yelps]

[Talon screams]

I was trying to hit you into next week.

But Ancient Egypt will do.

Save your breath, Pen,
and have some of mine.

Someone needs a super mint.

[coughs] Okay, time out.

You can't call that.

No, seriously, why are we fighting here?

Whoa. Did I actually knock
some sense into you?

When I could be destroying HQ! Ha!

[groans]

Nope.

[sheep bleating]

Hmm. Penny is pretty angry
that she's still a sheep.

Time to take the wool by the horns.

Go, go, Gadget, Penny pacifier.

Whoa!

It's good to get your [groans]
frustration out,

Sheep-Penny [groans] but I'm here to help.

[bleats]

Go, go, Gadget,
cosmic energy transformation reverser.

- [snarls]
- [gasps]

[bleats]

Whoa!

I don't remember the reversion process
being so spinny.

Talon! The alignment's final
cosmic energy burst is coming.


What are you doing?

Whatever I want.

[laughs]

- With great power comes...
- Me still kicking your butt.

This ends here and now, Talon.

[Penny] Hey!

Huh? Ow!

[both grunting]

Ouch! Ouch!

[Penny] I'll never let you
destroy Metro City. [grunts]

[Talon] Too late. Ha!

Looks like I'm not the only one
it needs saving from.

[screams]

What have I done?

You've tasted real power

and it doesn't even come close
to the power I'll have

when I absorb the last burst
of cosmic energy.

I'll be unstoppable!

Aren't you forgetting something?

Oh, right, I need a head start.

- Fetch!
- What? No!

See you!

With great power comes...

Great responsibility!

And a later start.

Sorry, I can't stay for your thanks,
I've got a world to save.

You want I should thank you for this?

[Inspector Gadget screaming]

Uncle Claw, thought you'd like to know,

I'm about to catch
the last blast of energy

and become the most powerful being
in the universe, so I quit.

[Dr. Claw]
This is the last time I send you...

[laughs]

I'm not gonna make it.

[laughs]

[evil voice] More power!

Wowzers!

You think that'll stop me?

I'm all powerful!

You may be, but that isn't.

[yelps] My powers?

No! [cries]

Huh, looks like
we're not invulnerable anymore.

At least I can still fly.

No you... Oh, right. The boots.

Great work, Gadget.

You turned Claw into a Super Zero.

But, Penny, we need to discuss
how you plan to work off

the damage you caused to Metro City.

Does not having power get me out
of that great responsibility? [chuckles]

No?

Cheer up, Penny.
Just be glad you're you again.

Although you were much fluffier
as a sheep.

What?

- [bleats]
- Whoa!

So, the "most powerful being
in the universe" wants his job back?

Let's begin the interview by finding
your strengths and weaknesses.

Starting with your weaknesses!

- Weakness one: gravity.
- [beeps]

[screams]
