"Full Moon" is the thirty-fourth episode of the Disney Channel and Marvel Animation series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.
Synopsis[]
Adria plans a special mother-daughter bonding day with Lunella.
Plot[]
The Lafayettes are still uncomfortable trying to prevent Adria from having any kind of contact with Lunella's superhero life. She slips away to take out glitter obsessed villain Decoy before heading back home. After comforting advice from Mimi, Lunella goes to the bathroom and is surprised when she has her first period. Adria suddenly unveils her "period pack", a fanny pack dedicated to covering for this sort of thing. Lunella finds herself happily rebonding with her mother. The next day, she had Casey and Devil leave her alone so that she and Adria can have a mother-daughter bonding day together.
Lunella excitedly spends the whole day with Adria who gives her healthy advice on how to take care of her body. Meanwhile, Devil goes to the local garden where he learns that the night before, meteorites landed in the garden. Unbeknownst to them, the meteors have an unnatural effect on the ginger roots which suddenly begin to grow and become sentient, with one of them attacking Devil. Adria takes Lunella to the spa to get a pedicure. As Adria tries to give Lunella life advice to her, Lunella catches Devil in the middle of a fight with the mutant ginger roots, forcing her to repeatedly sneak off to help him face them.
Eventually, Adria catches on and tells Lunella it is okay to end the day early, but Lunella angrily demands that they continue, only for the roots to attack. Lunella apologizes for her superhero life interfering, but Adria admits that her ignoring her superhero acts has had a negative effect on both of them and finally embraces Lunella's life as Moon Girl. Lunella finally figures out a solution and defeats the evil roots with the L.E.S., Adira included, excitedly cheering for Moon Girl. Lunella and Adria return to the underground lab where Devil, Casey and the rest of the Lafayettes have thrown a "Full Moon Party". The Lafayettes are now whole again.
