One is for the authorities and one that discovers the details of The Chocolate Cartel formed by Slugworth, Fickelgruber, and Prodnose; including their chocolate reserve vault that is located underneath the cathedral guarded by the corrupt priest, Father Julius, all the illegal payments where they use their chocolates to bribe, blackmail, and bludgeon the competition. At the same time, he hid behind the desk when Slugworth came by while having conversation with his assistant, Miss Bon-Bon. He notices Crunch's glasses on the Cartel's ledger and fires him, which he replies, "Very good sir."

One day, Willy Wonka, who is a chocolate maker, was scammed by Mrs. Scrubbit and Bleacher and was placed into the laundromat where he meets Abacus and the others. He shows him around before they get to work.
Sometime later, after spending the afternoon free from working, Wonka and Noodle returned from the zoo at night and had a run-in with the Chief-of-Police, who is bribed by Slugworth & The Chocolate Cartel to make sure Wonka doesn't sell his chocolate. Abacus explains Wonka of The Chocolate Cartel and their true colors. He laters hears a conversation between Wonka and Noodle, later joined by Piper, Larry, and Lottie, all of whom wants to join on their mission to sell Wonka's chocolate and pay off their debt to Scrubbit. He warns them at they'll get locked up in the coop if Scrubitt catches them escaping. When Noodle gives him a piece of Wonka's chocolate, he immediately joins the group.
During the next couple of days, Willy was able to secretly sell more chocolate while Abacus and the others assists him avoiding the police. He keeps track of all the money they've been collecting. They were able to open up Wonka's chocolate shop and the first day goes successful. Shortly, the customers have unexpectedly mutated due to the chocolates being tampered with Yeti sweat. This leads to chaos and destruction of Wonka's store. It is later revealed that Slugworth informed Scrubbit of the group's actions and payed her into poisoning the chocolates.
After Wonka was forced out of town by The Cartel after making a deal to pay of his friends debts and to never make chocolate again, everyone except Noodle is released from their contracts after Mrs. Scrubitt revealed she is being paid by Slugworth to keep her there forever she is then locked into the coop. Wonka (who recently returned to town after being nearly exploded by the ship he went on), Abacus, and the others rescues Noodle. They plan to expose The Cartel's crimes by breaking into The Cartel's vault and steal a book, listing all The Cartel's illegal payments. Abacus also warns Wonka that even if the plan goes successful, the Cartel will try to bribe their way out of trouble. He, Wonka, and the group pretends to be the zoo's employees, with him and Piper driving Abigail the giraffe to the cathedral to distract Julius and the chocolate monks while giving Wonka and Noodle access to The Cartel's vault. He and Piper returns the giraffe back to the zoo.
After Wonka and Noodle were almost drowned in the chocolate reserve by The Cartel and were rescued by Lofty the Oompa Loompa, they expose The Cartel & Chief-of-Police's crimes to the citizens and to the police. Abacus, Piper, Larry, and Lottie release The Cartel's chocolate reserve through the fountain that sends the floating Cartel in the air due to them eating too many of Wonka's hoverchocs. Abacus and the group celebrates their victory and were able to find the location of Noodle's birth mother, Dorothy Smith, who works at a library.
