==Biography==
When George and Harold decide to head back to the other dimension to rescue and de-hypnotize Sulu form their evil counterparts and take the 3D Hypno-Ring and Extra-Strength Super Power Juice just in case. However, Mr. Beard stops George and Harold from leaving the house and forces them to come inside as it is Grandparent's Day so they can eat dinner with George's Great-Grandmother and Harold's Grandfather at George's house. While George and Harold try to explain to Mr. Beard they need to leave, George and Harold's grandparents unknowingly drink the rest of the Extra-Strength Super Power Juice while reading a comic George and Harold wrote.
When Evil George and Evil Harold have unleaded Giant-Evil Sulu to attack, Captain Underpants defeats him and ties the evil counterparts up, but when Harold states that nothing can go wrong, George warns him that it isn't nice to say things like that, and then a rainstorm suddenly hits and turns Nice Mr. Krupp back into Captain Blunderpants and Captain Underpants back into Mr. Krupp. George and Harold try snapping their fingers, but the rain is pouring too hard on them. Mr. Krupp can't figure out how he got outside, so he goes back to his soggy toilet paper-covered home to get back to bed while Captain Blunderpants frees himself and Evil George and Evil Harold.
George and Harold fly away on Crackers while the doubles pursue them. After arriving at the Treehouse, George finds the Shrinky-Pig 2000, which they could use to shrink their counterparts. Unfortunately, it is too late as Captain Blunderpants grabs the two by their Shirts while the Shrinky-Pig 2000 is taken by Evil George and Evil Harold. 
Before Captain Blunderpants can finish off George and Harold, George and Harold's grandparents arrive and order Captain Blunderpants to put down their grandchildren, but he refuses, causing George and Harold's grandparents to transform into Boxer Boy and Great-Granny Girdle (having been inspired by George and Harold's comic). They then battle and defeat Captain Blunderpants, saving their grandchildren. George then notes that their grandparents had drunk the rest of the Extra-Strength Super Power Juice earlier.
However, Evil George and Evil Harold appear and plan to use the Shrinky-Pig 2000 on George, Harold, and their grandparents, but Harold uses reverse psychology and claims they can go right ahead as they are holding the device backwards. 
Evil George and Evil Harold believe this and turn the Shrinky-Pig 2000 around before activating it, resulting in themselves being shrunk. After punishing the evil twins by spanking them, George and Harold's grandparents fly off for a romantic dinner, George and Harold de-hypnotize and shrink Sulu back to normal, and then take Evil George, Evil Harold, and Captain Blunderpants back to their own universe into the Purple Potty.
