*List of episodes*

— Hailey Banks

"**U.F.Whoa!**" is the eleventh episode in the first season of ***Hailey's On It!***. It is also the twentieth episode of the season overall. It premiered on July 15, 2023 on Disney Channel.

Plot
While sitting outside of U.F. Dough, Hailey is deciding on putting a label on her notebook (depicting an image of a birdhouse with "HB" on it), but Beta informs her that she is not allowed to go public with it as it could damage the time space continuum, reminding her about when she tried to remove an item on her list. Kristine arrives and informs her and Scott that she will be on *Hat House*, a reality show that is hat-themed. She takes notice of Hailey's notebook and, rather inconsiderately, begins thumbing through it. Before she could read the "Kiss Scott Denoga" item, she is only able to read the S, forcing Hailey to claim that it is a boy named Sanjay Singh that she has a crush on.
After Kristine leaves, Hailey accidentally spills slushie on her book, resulting in a chaos bot suddenly appearing in the sky in search of the book. Locals begin to believe that the chaos bot was a U.F.O. which draws alien enthusiasts called the Paranormies. Hailey expresses concern to Scott that if anyone else discovers the chaos bot, it would lead to the exposure of her own secret. Their conversation is overheard by Lazlo, an unusual alien believer who claimed that he was abducted following a visit to the dentist. He plans to rescue his alien friend from N.O.P.E. (National Organization of Paranormal Extraterrestrials) at Area 37. As Hailey, Scott, and Beta plan to find the chaos bot first, Kristine arrives with her trainer Logan and shows off to Scott, who appears oblivious to her actions and is okay with the two of them hanging out.
Hailey, Scott, and Beta go into the woods to search for the chaos bot. Recalling that the chaos bots also try to stop her from completing her list items, and decides on an easy one where she learns to juggle. Unfortunately, Scott and Beta proves far better at it than her, so Hailey uses her notebook as bait to lure the chaos bot. The ploy works as the chaos bot arrives to take the notebook, but Beta destroys it. As Hailey gets the book back, N.O.P.E. arrives and picks up the remaining pieces of the chaos bot and Beta. Hailey and Scott return home where they are visited by the Professor who, rather than help get Beta back, presents Hailey with a new and improved A.I. named Omega. As far as the Professor is concerned, Beta is compromised and thus his memory will be automatically wiped once his battery runs out. Once the Professor is sucked back to the future, Omega, who, being much more pleasant to work with, agrees to help Hailey and Scott rescue Beta from Area 37.
With Lazlo's help, the two take down the U.F.Dough sign over the restaurant and use it to sneak into Area 37. Disguising themselves as scientists, Hailey and Scott search the premises before finding the chaos bot remains. However, they find that its battery has the sign that Hailey had designed earlier, making her wonder if she is evil. At that moment, a pair of scientists walk in with Beta and ask who they are. Hailey and Scott pass themselves off as Regina and George, and fortunately the scientists are aware of colleagues by those names and assumed they got the Youth Ray to work. But before Hailey and Scott could take Beta, the real Regina and George appear, forcing them to grab Beta and run. The base soon goes on alert. Hailey and Scott make their getaway on courtesy bikes while the agents give chase on courtesy carts. They make it outside but the gate closes on them. Fortunately, Omega grants their bikes the power of levitation. They escape, just as Lazlo manages to launch on himself on a human catapult and enters Area 37 through a vent and finds his alien friend.
At home, with Beta's battery nearly depleted, Hailey desperately puts him on his charging station but it doesn't work. Omega then tells her she has the power to revive Beta. She assumes he's talking about the power of friendship before he refers to the power source she got from the chaos bot, bringing him back to life.
The Professor appears to tell Hailey that she can only have one A.I. with Hailey choosing Beta, her reasoning being that while he's a grump, he's her grump. Before the Professor could take her leave, Hailey demands answers about the chaos bot's power source and whether she's evil in the future. While still avoiding major spoilers about the future, the Professor explains the power source is Haileytonium, which she discovers after the completion of her list. With Haileytonium, she was able to stave off climate change and power the whole world, including the chaos bots. The Professor then attempts to give Hailey tomorrow's winning jackpot number only to be sucked back to the future once again. Beta suddenly tells Hailey that the "Kiss Scott Denoga" item now has a higher percentage of being completed. Scott comes back and tells Hailey that not only has Kristine got on the show, but she also broke up with him, giving Hailey mixed emotions.
