"The Pluto Rescue" is the first segment of the twenty-fifth episode of Miles from Tomorrowland. It premiered on October 24, 2015 alongside "The Taking of the Solar Express".
Plot[]
In the hallway, Loretta is telling Miles to head to the hangar like Phoebe and Leo asked them. However, Loretta realizes that it is a hologram. The real Miles says that he and M.E.R.C. were testing Miles' new Blastboard holo-projector. They then head to the hangar.
Once there, Phoebe and Leo have good news and bad news. The good news: Admirals Watson and Crick asked Phoebe to speak at the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Captain's Conference today. The bad news: the conference is on Planet Orsino, which, according to Loretta's Bracelex, is known for one thing: there's nothing to do on it. Phoebe and Leo will take the Stellosphere to the conference while Miles, Loretta, and M.E.R.C. will go with Frida for a field trip. Frida says that where they're going is the mystery.
A starship then approaches Pluto, the dwarf planet. Inside the starship, Commander S'Leet is trying to handle his sidekicks, Blizzbert and Flurrbo. While they are steering the ship, S'Leet realizes that with the TTA searching for him because he escaped their custody, he has found the perfect location for the Frost fleet to hide: Pluto. Blizzbert and Flurrbo complain about Pluto being a dwarf planet. S'Leet likes the idea, because since Earth decided that Pluto should be called a dwarf planet, it gets ignored, which makes it the perfect place for the Frost fleet to hide. As for its weak gravity, S'Leet has it taken care of with an invention.
In the Star Jetter, Frida tells Miles, Loretta, and M.E.R.C. that they will paint the Kuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt is a region of the solar system, and Pluto is included, as well. They then demonstrate why Pluto is a dwarf planet. It is a dwarf planet because Pluto does not have a strong gravitational field to knock objects out of their orbit. Just then, an alarm blares, and the Star Jetter crashes into an asteroid, taking out its steering. Miles, Loretta, Frida, and M.E.R.C. activate their helmets before ejecting the ship with M.E.R.C.'s bubble shield.
They then land on Pluto, and quickly notice its strong gravity. Frida wonders what's going on. Meanwhile, S'Leet tells Blizzbert and Flurrbo about the power of the invention, the gravity generator. It creates enough gravity for the Frost Empire to land on without floating away. S'Leet also thinks that the TTA completely ignores the planet, so they will remain hidden.
Frida decides for her, Miles, Loretta, and M.E.R.C. to get back to the Star Jetter to call their parents. Loretta sees it, but it is pretty far away. When Miles slips on ice, Frida makes a sled. Miles, Loretta, Frida, and Pollock ride the sled while M.E.R.C. pulls it. M.E.R.C. also dodges the sled from asteroids being pulled towards Pluto.
Eventually, they make it to the Star Jetter, which is seriously damaged, and its com unit is busted. Loretta assumes that they are stranded in Pluto, but Frida reminds her that she is a Callisto and a Liang, and that combination can solve any problem. M.E.R.C. and Pollock then cover everyone from another incoming asteroid. Frida then realizes that the strong gravity is due to an invention she sees up ahead.
Once they make it there, Loretta finds out that it is a gravity generator which is causing the strong gravity. Liang assumes that someone wants to give Pluto the strong gravity, and M.E.R.C. finds out that it is Commander S'Leet's Frost Empire. S'Leet himself then confronts Frida, who says that Pluto was a part of their solar system. This ruins S'Leet's plan, and S'Leet decides for his Frost Empire to find somewhere else to hide while Frida gets captured. Miles, Loretta, Frida, Pollock, and M.E.R.C. scatter from Blizzbert, Flurrbo, and S'Leet, who traps Frida and Pollock in an ice wall. Miles tells Loretta that they are Callistos and Liangs, and say that the best way to stop S'Leet is the gravity generator. To allow enough time to get there, Miles decides to use a hologram of himself on his Blastboard.
While S'Leet is distracted by them, Loretta and Miles try to find out how the gravity generator works. S'Leet then realizes that Miles on his Blastboard is a hologram. Loretta realizes that one button narrows the generator into a single beam and redirects it. Just as S'Leet, Blizzbert, and Flurrbo arrive, Miles pushes the button, capturing Blizzbert, Flurrbo, and S'Leet, who insists that they were borrowing the planet. Miles tells him that he can tell it to the SpaceGuard once they leave Pluto. Frida and Pollock appear afterwards, and congratulate Miles and Loretta for stopping S'Leet.
In the hangar, Lieutenant Luminix tells everyone the good news: the gravity generator has been confiscated, Pluto will return to its normal gravity, and S'Leet is heading to the prison planet, Strickthorpe. Phoebe says that that is more exciting than the conference. Miles and Loretta decide to go on more adventures with Frida soon, as soon as the Star Jetter is fixed. Miles believes it won't take long when he damages it a bit more.
