## Synopsis

Maggie and Kira begin the episode watching a TV series centered around the famous superhero duo - Professor Man and Science Boy, and subsequently roleplay as them. They decide to visit Squidward and pretend he is the supervillain Reflecto. Squidward is quickly annoyed at his neighbors' antics, and tell them that Professor Man and Science Boy actually live in a nursing home, having retired years earlier. Maggie and Kira decide that these crime fighters have resume their careers, and go to the Shady Shoals Rest Home, where they are met by its caretaker. He escorts the friends to the superheroes and tells them not to surprise them. Maggie tells them that superheroes should no longer be retired, but they should continue to fight evil. Professor Man creates a panic when he hears the word, "evil," leading the caretaker of the nursing home to throw Maggie and Kira out for surprising them.

While the former crime fighters are going to the cafeteria for lunch, Maggie arrives and makes an inspiring speech about how superheroes should not be retired. After Maggie is done with his speech, Professor Man and Science Boy angrily banish Maggie from the Shady Shoals Rest Home forever by telling the caretaker to throw him right out to his house for surprising them again.

Maggie and Kira come up with a new plan to free the superheroes from retirement: Maggie, disguised as a woman, "complains" about the weight of a purse he is holding, and Kira, disguised as a criminal, "steals" it. Suddenly, Science Boy, who is in no way deceived by the disguises, comes to Maggie and tells him to pipe down because Professor Man is taking a nap (with his eyes open), but he tells Science Boy to stop shouting and they start arguing, until Maggie interrupts them and says that he and Kira have painted their invisible boatmobile. After telling Maggie and Kira that their invisible boatmobile is supposed to be invisible, Science Boy becomes fed up with Maggie and Kira bothering and irritating him and Professor Man as he decides to end the argument and convinces Professor Man that evil is right in front of them. He takes out their rings, and they resume their careers. The newly reunited crime-fighters get into a fight with Maggie and Kira, who are impervious to their attacks and joyed that they have brought their heroes out of retirement. Finally, the heroes are lucky: they are helped by elderly residents of a nursing home, who pick up Maggie and Kira and throw them away from the retirement home. The heroes then celebrate on a job well done.

Eventually, a new show of Professor Man and Science Boy is created: *The* *New Adventures of Professor Man and Science Boy*. The duo play checkers, then suddenly, the phone rings. Professor Man picks up upside-down, fails to hear the person on the other line, and hangs up, thinking the phone is broken. The announcer says, *"Will our heroes ever get their phone fixed? Tune in next week and find out."* After watching the new episode Maggie enjoyed it as he thought it was better than the old show, and when Maggie winks, the words appear: *"Wink!"*
