### Episode

The Supermen fight a monster and Careless S. gives it a kick, only to be reminded that they were just playing a video game and that he just broke the game system by kicking it. Careless S. is assured that Doctor H. can fix it. Later, Careless S. goes for a walk outside, wondering why the Supermen never blame him when he messes something up. Nearby, Miss Peach is reporting on a big robot that is destroying a bunch of buildings in the city; Mr. Lightbulb is sitting forlornly on some of the rubble, and when Careless S. finds him and asks what's wrong, Mr. Lightbulb responds that he used to live in the house whose remains he's near, and that he moved when his grandpa passed away. He explains that his grandpa gave him a treasure chest containing the most precious item he ever gave him, but that he left it at the destroyed house and never got a chance to retrieve it. Careless S. wants to help him find the treasure chest, and Mr. Lightbulb agrees to give him a reward if they find the object.

While the Superman and the lightbulb are searching, Big M. and Little M. are looking for parts for their spaceship. Little M. sees Careless S. and Mr. Lightbulb and overhears the lightbulb saying he could "conquer the whole universe" with his precious item. Little M. thinks Mr. Lightbulb literally wants to conquer the universe and goes to inform Big M.; later, Mr. Lightbulb is captured by the big robot but manages to get free. However, he and Careless S. end up chased by a junkyard robot who wants them to leave. As they're hiding from the junkyard robot, Mr. Lightbulb locates his house, but before he and Careless S. can make their way there the junkyard robot catches up with them. Careless S. realizes he should be watching the junkyard, the robot states he's working part-time, and Mr. Lightbulb threatens to call the sanitation company about it unless the junkyard robot tells the big demolition robot that there's nobody in the rubble. The junkyard robot agrees to the deal.

Careless S. and Mr. Lightbulb are followed into the house by Big M. and Little M. and look for the treasure chest within the many rooms inside. Mr. Lightbulb finally finds the chest, but it's taken by Big M. before he can get a hold of it and the demolition robot finds them. Careless S. and Mr. Lightbulb are saved by Happy S., Sweet S., and Smart S., who were worried when Careless S. didn't come home. Big M. still has the chest and tries to run off, but Careless S. stops him by transforming into his Car Knight and using his missiles. One of the missiles hits the chest, though the item inside is intact; Mr. Lightbulb grabs the item but has it swiped by Big M. again, who realizes it's a video game. Mr. Lightbulb explains that he used to play that game with his grandpa a lot when he was little, and it dawns on Big M. that when Mr. Lightbulb said he'd "conquer the whole universe" he meant in the game. Big M. is disappointed by his latest failure.

Mr. Lightbulb rewards the Supermen with a time slot for a commercial, but all of them except for Smart S. are not amused by the idea. Mr. Lightbulb instead comes up with another idea - play a video game with Doctor H. and the Supermen at their house. Mr. Lightbulb asks Careless S., who is on his team, to use his special move. Careless S. uses his Careless Missile, and Mr. Lightbulb clarifies he meant the special move he taught Careless S. in the game. Careless S. realizes his mistake and apologizes, and everyone has a laugh.
