[robot beeping]

[barking]

Oh, Plunky, careful with that tool-bot.

-This machine is fragile.
-[barking]

Mr. Ernesto, whatcha up to?

Oh! [chuckles] Hi, Action Pack.

I'm getting my new invention ready
to show the Superintendent.

It's a teleporter!

With this, I can travel
from here to there in an instant.

-Wow!
-Cool!

-Whoa!
-Hot Sparks!

-This button looks cool.
-Oh. [chuckles] Careful, Watts.

I'm counting on my Turbo Teleporter
to really impress the Superintendent.

She's coming today for my teacher review.

What's a teacher review?

It's where the Superintendent
makes sure I'm a good teacher.

Part of being a good teacher
is inventing helpful hero tools.

We'll help you get the best review ever!
Right, Action Pack?

-Right as rabbits.
-Absolutely.

Yeah!

But lots of supers
already have teleporters.

To get the best review ever,
you need something more…

[gasps] I know!

We can tell the Superintendent
it's an instant villain catcher.

Eh, we can't do that, Treena.

Heroes and their teachers
are always honest.

Plus, I think the technology
is pretty impressive.

Just watch as I teleport myself
across the room.

[electricity crackles]

[Plunky barking]

[beeping, chimes]

[zapping]

-[Treena] Plant-tastic!
-[Wren] Whoa!

[Watts] Cool!

Whoa, that was super itchy.
Ah, I'll need to recalibrate some things.

[beeping]

There! That should do it.

I'll teleport myself again to make sure.

-[barking]
-[yelps] Oh! Plunky!

[Treena] Mr. Ernesto!

-[alarm beeping]
-[Clay] Oh no!

Leapin' lemurs!

-Whoa!
-[Treena gasps]

-[powering up]
-[Watts] Aah!

[zapping]

-[Wren] Phew!
-[Clay] Oh!

-Thank greenness! Are you okay?
-[Mr. Ernesto] Oh, we're just fine.

-Looks like the teleporter overloaded.
-[gasps]

-Why are you all so tall?
-What happened?

-I don't know.
-[gasps] I didn't gigantify you, did I?

[panting]

Wait, if my body's there, then…

Mirror function, on.

[gasps] What a fascinating result.

Plunky and I have switched bodies.

-Outstanding!
-[barks]

But not outstanding
for your teacher review.

Right. Good thing I know
exactly how to fix the machine

to get Plunky and I back to normal.

Aah. Oh. Whoa.

Whoa! [grunts] Uh-oh.

-[blender whirring]
-[shouting nervously]

-[kids] Whoa!
-Excuse me. Sorry!

-Oh! No! Release! Whoa!
-[barking]

-[Treena] Watch out!
-[crashes]

[barking]

[crashing]

-Watts, give him a light zap.
-I'm on it!

-[groaning dizzily]
-[grunts]

-[zaps]
-Oh!

[groans]

[giggles]

Funny trick, Mr. Ernesto. [laughs]

That's better, but, oh…
I… I can't control Plunky's body.

[grunts] I need your help
to fix the teleporter.

Action Pack, circle up, hoodies up, and…

[all] Take action!

♪ Action Pack! ♪

♪ Here we go! ♪

Treena, mighty flowers and plant powers!

Clay, Plasma Power and Invinci-ball!

Wren, changing up
with animal powers, roar!

Watts, super charged electric zaps!

[Wren roars]

All right, your mission…

Oops. [splutters] Not that one.

Mm-mm. Not that either.

-Hang on. [chuckles nervously]
-I'll help you, Mr. Ernesto.

Action Pack,
our mission is to fix the teleporter…

[fanfare plays]

…swap Plunky and Mr. Ernesto
back to normal…

[zaps]

…and make sure Mr. Ernesto gets
the best superhero teacher review ever.

-[Plunky barking]
-[all] Yay!

Action On!

Wait, where did Plunky go with my body?

-Good question.
-Uh…

I got nothin'.

[barking]

[Wren] Plunky! Come here, girl!

-[yips]
-[gasps] There she is.

[Wren and Treena] Aah!

Superintendent?

Yes, I, the Superintendent,

am here for Mr. Ernesto's teacher review.

As a teleporter expert,
I can't wait to see his new invention.

This is badgerly bad.

Now, where is Mr. Ernesto?

-Um… Before we find Mr. Ernesto…
-Oh!

…you should review these super flowers
that he taught me how to grow.

Very super.

We can't tell the Superintendent

about Mr. Ernesto and Plunky
swapping bodies.

She's a teleporter expert.

If she found out
Mr. Ernesto messed up teleporting,

she'd give him a bad review.

I don't know, Treena.

Mr. Ernesto would want us
to be honest as otters.

But what if a bad review
means he can't be our teacher anymore?

[gasps] But I don't want another teacher.

That's why we have
to get Plunky back to the teleporter.

Without the Superintendent seeing.

[barking, panting]

[gasps] Oh, I know.

[calling] Oh, Plunky.

[whines, barks]

-No, Plunky, no!
-Aah!

-[girls yelp]
-[Treena] Come on!

-Down, Plunky! [grunts]
-[woofs]

Ah! Mr. Ernesto, I can't wait
to review your teleportation--

-[barks]
-[chuckles]

-Ahem?
-[nervously] We're, uh, working on--

-Dog rescues! [chuckles]
-Yeah! Um…

Mr. Ernesto.

-He gets really into his teaching.
-[both chuckle]

Your methods always
have been unusual, Mr. Ernesto.

-[nervous chuckling]
-[Treena groans]

Now connect the T-63 to the L-port.

-Oh no!
-Uh-oh!

-[screams]
-[rumbling]

-Look out!
-[thuds]

[crackling]

[straining] Aw…

Hot Sparks! I'll call Wren.

-[Insignia chimes]
-[Watts] Wren. We need your Polar Power.

-[whining]
-[Treena] No, no, no!

-Hmm?
-Superintendent!

I'd love to show you more
of what Mr. Ernesto's taught us.

[barks]

[laughing nervously]

[Mr. Ernesto] If we bypass
the stabilizers…

Superintendent's here!

-[gasps]
-Oh no!

We gotta keep her busy as bees until
Plunky and Mr. Ernesto switcheroo back,

or he might get a bad review
and not be our teacher!

Oh, here. And… Oh, the wires are crossed.

Maybe we should just tell
the Superintendent.

-Heroes are always honest.
-[Mr. Ernesto] Uh-oh.

-[crackling]
-Oh!

-[fizzles]
-Hmm.

Remember our mission.
Bestest teacher review ever.

I'll go help Treena.

This tour is entirely unnecessary.

We wanna show you the training exercises
we've been working on.

Yeah. We love to train.

[sighs] I suppose a demonstration
of your training would be in order.

This is our Action Pack obstacle course.

We have to get
to the button on the other side.

Action On! Vine Time!

Lightning Legs!

[grunts]

[Watts grunts]

-Hi-yah! Ha!
-[grunts]

Ooh! Your students are well trained,
Mr. Ernesto.

[barks]

[panting, whines excitedly]

-[beeping]
-[panting]

Oh no! Whoa!

Hey! Ah!

Petal Power Shield! [grunts]

-[yips]
-[beeps]

Ah!

[grunting]

[Treena] Whoa!

[yapping]

-Great gladiolus!
-[Watts] Watch out!

You're a tough teacher, Ernesto,

but I respect that.

-[woofs]
-[beeps]

Clay, help!

[grunts] You better go, Clay.

[panting]

[gasps] Oh no.

[computer beeping]

-[exclaims]
-[barks]

Invinci-ball!

Here you go. Plunky, go get it.

[barks]

[beeps, powers down]

-Phew! I'm glad it's over.
-That was hard.

Mr. Ernesto must have gone
to ready his teleporter.

-[yelps]
-We should follow.

You can't go!

[splutters] Ah?

I mean, you can't go

until I, uh, sing you the school song
that Mr. Ernesto taught us. [chuckles]

[groans]

Good one.

I do love a good school song.

[chuckles] I'll make sure
everything is ready for you.

Well, Watts?

I, uh…

[Wren] Hiya, Plunky.

Not again!

-Oh, Mr. Ernesto!

[Wren] Oh nosies.

[sighs]

There's only one way to fix this.

Marvelous performance! [chuckles]

But I must insist that we move on.

But we have 36 more verses.

Superintendent, Mr. Ernesto's teleporter
accidentally swapped him with Plunky.

-[gasps]
-Treena!

We didn't want him to get a bad review,
so we decided not to tell you.

But we made things worse.

We should have told you from the beginning
because heroes are always honest.

Good.

It didn't take long at all
for you to tell the whole truth.

You knew this whole time?

[chuckling] Of course!

I, the Superintendent,
see all and hear all.

But we should have told
the truth right away.

Indeed.

But you were honest in the end.

Mr. Ernesto is doing very fine work.

-[barking]
-[Mr. Ernesto] No, no, no, Plunky!

No, girl! [chuckles]

Superintendent!
[laughs nervously] I can explain.

Your students have explained everything.

Oh, good. Then, uh,
given your teleportation expertise,

do you think you might be able
to help us out? [chuckles nervously]

[beeps]

Oh. Oh. Ooh!

Hey, Action Pack!

Mr. Ernesto is back!

-Plant-tastic!
-Yes!

Wowzers!

[Clay] Mr. Ernesto!

Mr. Ernesto,
never mind your teleporter mishap.

I can see the machine
has incredible potential.

You'll receive full marks
on your superhero teacher review.

You're doing fine work indeed.

-[snaps fingers]
-[all gasp]

[Insignias chiming]

Mission accomplished.

-I promise I'm always going to be honest.
-Uh-huh!

-Me too.
-Yeah.

Wren, remember how I said
sprinkles on veggies were gross?

I tried it and I love it!

Sorry, Watts,
but blueberries aren't my favorite fruit.

Clay, remember when I told you
I don't use a night-light when I sleep?

I actually do.

[Clay] And, Treena,
your sunflowers make me sneezy.

-[barks]
-That's right!

It's time for Action Pack fun facts.

-[barks]
-Thank you, Plunky.

Hello, I'm Treena.

Did you know I have plant powers?

I can help plants grow
and float on a dandelion.

With my Awesomer Blossomer, I sh**t vines,

and I've got
this really cool Petal Power Shield.

Later, buds!

-[alert beeping]
-Oh! Plunky, the Action Pack Alert.

It's time for the next mission.

[barks]

[lighthearted music playing]

-[game beeping]
-Hot Sparks!

This new Game-zee is awesome!

-[school bell beeping]
-Huh?

Oh Zap!

Somebody put their lunch box in my locker.

[gasps] And someone's in my chair.

Hey, Watts.

It's so cool to see you!

What's Cold Snap doing
at the Action Academy?

Isn't he too young to be in our class?

Cold Snap is a little young
to be a full-time student here,

which is why I invited him
to be Hero of the Day.

Like how our bud Mason
was Hero of the Day.

I love spending the day with new heroes.

It's gr-r-reat to have you here!

He's sitting in my chair.

Oh. I just thought this chair was mine
because it's blue.

But you're blue too, Watts.

We always have room for a new hero.

Here you go, Watts.

[sighs]

[sighs]

Okay! The goal of this exercise
is for each of you

to hit the target as quickly as you can.

Hot Sparks! This will be easy.

Cold Snap will help your speed
by creating ice ramps

with his Freezy Gloves.

That should help you get to the target
as fast as possible.

Action On!

I'll have you there in a snap!

[grunts] Whoo!

I'm on it.

Yea… Aah!

[exclaims] Oof!

-Hmph.
-Rolling in!

Woo-hoo!

-[Cold Snap] Here you go, Treena.
-[grunts] Yeah!

Whoa!

This is great, Cold Snap!

[giggling]

-Gotcha!
-[target chimes]

Aw, come on! For real?

These ice ramps are superly slidey!

Cheetah Power!

I got it!

I don't need these ice ramps
to hit the target. Look!

Action On! Lightning Blast! Aah! [grunts]

[barks]

-Plunky!
-I'll catchity-catch her!

[grunting]

[grunts]

Gotcha!

-[barks]
-[giggles]

That was an awesome catch!

Cold sparks!

Wow! That's a cool catchphrase, Cold Snap.

He's using my phrase!
He just replaced "hot" with "cold"!

-[Plunky barks]
-[alert beeps]

Action Pack, we have an incoming mission.
Plunky, play back the security footage.

[barks]

[Abby] Hey!

Wow! I'm gonna get the high score.

-Nice!
-Whatever.

-[bird caws]
-Watch it!

Where did my Game-zee go?

[Mr. Ernesto] A giant Robo-Raven?

It seems to be stealing
those new Game-zees from all over town.

-[kids gasp]
-That's badgerly bad!

We have to get to the bottom of this.

I haven't even had a chance
to play mine yet.

Action Pack, you have a mission.

Circle up, hoodies up, and…

Wait. You coming, Watts?

Um… [coughs]

You all go on ahead. [sniffles]

-I'm not… [coughs] …feeling well.
-Everything okay?

[coughs] I'm just fighting a little cold.

Don't you worry, Watts.
We'll be okey-dokey-okay without you.

Cold Snap, do you wanna
join us on the mission?

[gasps] Yes! That would be amazing!

We don't have time to waste.
Let's grow, buds.

-[Cold Snap] Feel better, Watts!
-Take care!

Let's get you some soup.

[Robo-Raven caws]

-[Wren] Look out!
-[kids] Ah!

[beeping]

[both gasp]

Birds don't care about video games.

Someone has to be behind this.
Action On! Plasma Vision!

[cawing]

[gasps] It's Teddy Von Taker!
He's controlling the Robo-Raven.

[caws]

Yes! Keep taking, Robo-Raven.

Everyone in Hope Springs
is gaga for Game-zees,

and I wanna take them all!

[laughing evilly]

[woman gasps]

-Ah!
-Oh!

[gasps] We can't let Teddy take them.

Action On! Vine Time!

It pecked my vines!

[Teddy] Look at what we have here.

Welcome to my nest, Clay.

[caws]

[Clay] What do you want
with all the Game-zees?

I wanna take the high score, of course.

Everyone else
is getting more points than me.

But if I have their Game-zees,

the high score will be mine!

[laughing evilly]

[Treena] Hold on, Clay.

Hi-yah!

[grunting]

[chuckles] If I wanna take
all the Game-zees in Hope Springs,

I must take all the heroes out!

-[yelps]
-Whoa! [grunts]

[grunts]

Now that I've made
the Action Pack my prisoners,

no one can stop me
from take, take, taking everything I want!

[laughing evilly]

I need to do something to help.
Try to think of what Watts would do.

-[caws]
-[gasps]

[gasps] I've got it!

Cold sparks!

[gasps]

-[shrieking]
-[shouting nervously]

[powering down]

Woo-hoo!

What? How did he escape?

What are you waiting for, bird?
Take that cold kid!

[grunts]

Ah!

Ah! Huh?

Phew. Wait, that's not a Game-zee.

That's my remote. Don't take that!

-[zaps]
-Aah!

Icy igloos!

I can't get close to the Robo-Raven
while it's sparking.

[Teddy grunting]

Can't you get your bird under control,
Teddy Von Taker?

Ha! That's a Von Taker Robo-Raven 2.0.
It only responds to the remote.

And as you can see,
the remote is stuck in that egg!

-[squawks]
-Hey! Bad bird!

You can't egg me!

[caws]

A little soup should have you
feeling better. Right, Watts?

Yeah. Maybe.

That is unless something else
was actually bothering you.

Maybe something about Cold Snap?

It's just… Cold Snap
took my place on the team.

Watts, Cold Snap can't take your place.

You always have a spot
no matter how big our team is.

Really? I felt like
my friends didn't need me.

Like they were replacing me.

No one gets replaced on the Action Pack,

because we always have room
for a new hero.

-[alert beeping]
-[barks]

[gasps] Oh. Looks like
the Action Pack is in trouble.

My team needs me!

Thanks, Mr. Ernesto!

[heroic music playing]

[cawing]

[sighs]

-Cold Snap?
-Thank ice pops!

My favorite hero is here to help!

Whoa! I'm your favorite?

Of course!

I even made my ice bolts
to look just like your electric bolts.

You're the coolest hero I know,
and the only hero who can stop that.

[caws]

[grunting] Ah!

I iced the Robo-Raven,
and it went all sparky.

Without electric powers like yours,
I can't get through the sparks.

[Watts gasps] The battery!

I know. We can work together to stop it!

-Will you team up with me?
-[gasps] For real?

You bet!

Okay, here's the plan.

You freeze and break the power eggs

with your ice powers
and free the Action Pack.

[all cheer]

I'll fly through the sparks
and get the battery out of the Robo-Raven.

Then everyone gets their Game-zees.

[all] Yay!

No problem! We've got this!

[Watts] Hey, birdy.

You haven't caught the whole Action Pack!

-[shouting, grunting]
-[caws]

[grunts]

[squawks]

This move will shock you!

[caws]

[electricity zapping]

Cold Snap!

It's so good to see you.

Watch out! I'm gonna use my ice to freeze
and break these power eggs.

Cold sparks!

[cracking]

Beautiful job, Cold Snap.

Hey, take me with you.

Um… Maybe later, Teddy.

Us heroes have work to do. [giggles]

[squawking]

[strains] Come on!

[grunts] Ha ha!

[powering down]

Catch it, Action Pack!

Plasma Putty Grab!

Vine Time!

Oh no! We missed!

It's too heavy!

[gasps] Cold Snap, I need some ice!

You got it!

[grunts] Gotcha!

-Way to grow, bud.
-Woo-hoo! Go, Wren!

[halfheartedly] Give. Give. Give.

Take! [laughs evilly]

Teddy.

Joking.

I meant "give."

[Game-zee beeping]

-[Insignias chiming]
-Mission accomplished!

[Clay] Hoodies down, team.

Get him. [giggles] Oh!

Today was unbelievable!

We always have room on our team for you,
whenever you wanna help out.

Being Hero of the Day was fun,
and the only thing I like more than that

is making treats.

I made this treat special just for you.
