### Episode

Doctor H. and Happy S. search around the junkyard when a guard dog appears and chases him. Doctor H. finds a bone in his car and throws it, distracting the dog; however, a bunch of other guard dogs appear and start to chase after Doctor H. and Happy S., thinking the former has more bones for them. Later, Doctor H. walks around the city snapping photos and sees a guy who gets stuck in a moving shopping cart headed straight for a car in the road. Happy S. swoops in just in time to save the man, and a story about it is written as the headline for the newspaper, which people are quick to purchase copies of. Big M., who is hiding behind a bush with Little M., notices how people go crazy for newspaper headlines. Little M. tries to tell Big M. something, but he orders him to be quiet; Big M. has a dog biting him in the bottom, and the two are chased by it as Big M. asks Little M. why he didn't say anything earlier. Little M. replies that it's because he was told to be quiet.

The duo run into the newspaper stand and scare the others away by letting the dog go after them. Little M. reads one of the newspapers and mentions Planet Gray, and Big M. realizes the paper is delivered to Planet Gray and comes up with an idea to have Doctor H. take a picture of them doing something helpful for the paper so that the people of Planet Gray will know he and Little M. are there and send someone to take them back home. Big M. and Little M. sneak their way to the outside of Doctor H.'s house, where the Doctor is showing the other Supermen the newspaper story about Happy S. and they are astonished at how popular the Superman has become. The other Supermen become oblivious to Doctor H. stating that without his photography they wouldn't have such a great story, and he goes out to prove how important photographers are. Out on the street, Big M. and Little M. try to come up with an idea to catch Doctor H.'s attention. Little M. goes out into the street in a stroller after Big M. reminds him of what Happy S. did to save the day, and Big M. grabs him, explaining that was juts an example.

The two notice Doctor H. as well as an old lady about to cross the street, and they speed through the heavy traffic to reach the lady and bring her to the other side of the road; this doesn't grab the Doctor's attention, and the duo try to deal with a robot throwing banana peels on the ground. That doesn't get noticed by Doctor H. either, and the two walk away sadly. Little M. accidentally kicks a rock into a tree, where it scares a bird who flies into a nearby flower pot on a window sill, causing both to fall; Big M. and Little M. save a mother and her baby from the incoming objects and have photos of them taken by Doctor H., at which point Big M. comes up with the idea to save people to get photos for the paper. Little M. deliberately starts to put multiple people in danger so that Big M. can save them, but Big M. reads the newspaper later on and is angry that none of the photos show him clearly. He throws the paper away, and it hits Mr. Lightbulb who reads it and gets mad himself about the publication stealing his headlines. Mr. Lightbulb sees Big M. and Little M. and asks what they'd be good for, and Big M. gets fed up and decides to do something villainous to get his newspaper story.

Big M. keeps Mr. Lightbulb hostage on the roof of a building and calls Doctor H. on the phone. Doctor H. arrives, and Big M. explains that unless he has pictures taken of him, he won't let Mr. Lightbulb go. Doctor H. takes photos of him, but Big M. gets angry that none of them are him holding the hostage. At that moment, the Supermen attack Big M., but Mr. Lightbulb doesn't want to be rescued because he thinks there's potential for a news story to be broadcast on TV. Big M. disagrees since he specifically wants a newspaper story; his argument with Mr. Lightbulb devolves into a boxing match that ends with the hostage being sent flying onto the train tracks below. Little M. knocks Big M. down to the tracks as well at his request; Big M. and Mr. Lightbulb continue their fight until the latter loses a coin, which gets stuck below the tracks. Mr. Lightbulb reaches for the coin right as a train comes towards them, and Big M. panics and tries to get his attention. The Supermen see him trying to stop the train himself and use their powers to halt the oncoming vehicle, and a robot from inside congratulates them since there was a missile in the middle of the tracks and they would have been in danger anyway.

The good deed from Big M. gets published in the Xing Xing Times newspaper, but Big M. notices that he's being covered by nearby objects in all the photos. He touches part of the paper and triggers a hologram of Mr. Lightbulb, who reminds them to watch the news report on TV. Big M. gets infuriated and screams that he wants to go home.
