Plot[]
In the Nemesystems stormship, Aggro is practicing his sneaky skills so no one can see him. However, Commander Nemex tells him that he'll have to be a better spy than that if he's going to sneak aboard the Zenith. Nemex then tasks Aggro to get inside the ship's engine room unseen and steal the hyperdrive, which they went over yesterday. If Nemex has the hyperdrive, he'll have the fastest starship in the galaxy. Aggro plans to borrow a starship, but is ejected from the stormship and crashes onto the Zenith.
Miles heard the sound, and tells Zeno what the sound was. Zeno is not sure what it is, but tells Miles that it didn't cause any damage to the Zenith. Aggro then progresses his way to the engine room, but then quickly goes into camouflage when he sees Mirandos and her robot-pet, Bowtie, leaving the engine room. As Aggro tries to make it inside, the doors slam on him, but he finally makes it in, but not before being spotted by Bowtie.
Aggro knows what the hyperdrive looks like, but is shocked when there are so many of them. He then steals what is actually Zeno's AI drive just as Miles, Mirandos, and Bowtie arrive at the engine room. Miles tells Zeno to seal the exits, but since Zeno's gone, Miles tells Mission Force One about the situation. As Aggro takes Zeno's AI drive to the stormship, Blodger tells Miles what they should do, and Miles says that the mission is to get Zeno back. Loretta assumes that Aggro is taking the AI drive to the stormship, and Haruna displays the stormship's engines' ion trail, which the team can follow. The team then performs their signature catchphrase and activates their recruit suits' mission mode.
Back in the stormship's engine room, Nemex tells Aggro that the latter's first solo mission was a success. A nemetron tells Nemex that the Zenith is in pursuit. Nemex places the "hyperdrive" into the energy port, but when he activates it, it is really Zeno, shocking Nemex, who tells Aggro that the latter had one job, but the nemetron tells Nemex that the Zenith is catching up to them. Aggro wonders what he should do with the AI, and Nemex tells him to toss it. Aggro thinks it's to put the AI in the trash, and deactivates Zeno.
On the Zenith, Haruna tells Miles that they're closing in on the stormship. Miles decides to call Nemex himself. Mission Force One then order him to take Zeno back, since he means a lot to him. Nemex agrees to give Zeno back if Mission Force One gives their hyperdrive to Nemex. This surprises the team, but Miles agrees to the trade, and the team will meet the stormship in 10 minutes. Even though the hyperdrive is what makes the Zenith the fastest starship in the galaxy, and Nemesystems could steal ships faster than anyone can catch him if they have it, Miles has a plan.
Aggro then tosses Zeno in the trash just as Nemex calls, telling him to not throw away the AI. Aggro then searches for it. Miles decides for Mission Force One to sneak over to the stormship to rescue Zeno. Nemex won't be ready for them if he and Aggro think Mission Force One is all still on board the Zenith. The plans is for Blodger to stay on the ship and pretend to be the team. Blodger is unsure of this, but after Mission Force One motivates him, he agrees to do so for Zeno.
While Miles, Loretta, Haruna, and Mirandos head into the stormship, M.E.R.C. and Blodger stay inside the Zenith. M.E.R.C. places the call to Nemex. Blodger then transforms to Miles, who tells Nemex that they're waiting to hear from Admirals Watson and Crick for their permission to make the trade.
At that time, Loretta deactivates the locked hatch in the stormship. Loretta then deactivates two defense orbs with her holo-hexes. While "Miles" is talking to Nemex, the nemetron tells Nemex that two defense orbs went offline, and that the stormship may have invaders. Blodger, however, transforms into the other members of Mission Force One. Nemex eventually notices this, and Blodger lets out a sigh of relief.
Aggro then retrieves Zeno, but accidentally drops him, causing him to roll all over the ship. Miles decides for him and Loretta to go down one side while Haruna and Mirandos go down the other. Unbeknownst to Miles and Loretta, a security orb spots them. Blodger then poses as Watson and Crick; Watson questions Crick if they should retrieve the hyperdrive for Zeno or not, but Crick is still thinking about it. The nemetron then informs Nemex that Mission Force One is on the ship. Blodger then goes to his normal self and ends the call. Nemex then calls Aggro, telling him that Mission Force One is on board, and orders him to get Nemex the AI now.
Miles and Loretta then head down the stairway, and deactivate two more defense orbs. Haruna and Mirandos, however, see Zeno, but also see Aggro, who sends out strikerbots, which are quickly deactivated by Haruna and Mirandos. As Aggro makes it to the bridge, he is surrounded by Miles, Loretta, Haruna, and Mirandos. Aggro then tosses Nemex the AI, but before Nemex could catch it, Miles uses his blast tether to get Zeno back, frustrating Nemex. While Mission Force One leaves, Aggro tells Nemex that it isn't his fault. Blodger then takes the Zenith away from the stormship.
Back in the stormship, Nemex says that he and Aggro could go after Mission Force One if they had a hyperdrive. In the Zenith's engine room, Miles places Zeno back where he belongs, and says that that is mission accomplished. Blodger then transforms to Watson and Crick, who congratulate Mission Force One, as well as Blodger for his performance as the team. Blodger then transforms to himself, and thanks everyone else.
