Apple and Onion are playing some instruments in a music store, while outside, Lollipop and Street Dog are dancing to what Apple and Onion are playing. Then, they stop once they hear the voice of Iced Tea talking to Chicken Nugget, He tells him that he's late to work and that instruments were stolen because he wasn't guarding them, Meanwhile, Chicken Nugget tries to leave the jail but everything (The door and the keys) are painted on the wall by Beef Jerky, much to Chicken Nugget's chagrin; angering him to break his painting stick, only find out the stick is made of paper Mache which angers him more.

Chicken Nugget angrily walks to the music store while ignoring everything on his path at the same time (Including his Mother, who just wanted wish him Happy birthday) Chicken Nugget walks in to guard the instruments only to find Apple and Onion playing the instruments, He stops them from playing the instruments and tells what they think it's like to have a family, they imagined it (Though in an unrealistic way) and it sounds terrible. Chicken Nugget tells them about the instruments that keep getting stolen and a rat problem, Apple tells him the sentence he made rhymed which makes him sing his sentence from earlier only to find that the instrument he was just playing disappeared, He kicks the boys out for distracting him but they stop him and tell him that they can help him guard the instruments and if they succeed, they could get keys to the store (Like how a Mayor gives superheroes keys to the city), Chicken Nugget agrees with them and gives them the job.

The duo are now guarding the instruments, Chicken Nugget is impressed by them, Not a single instrument was stolen and they aren't any rats, All of a sudden he finds out that the duo locked all of the doors in the store so no one could get in and steal only to find a lot of people wanting to buy the instruments, He lets all of the people in, Onion suddenly comes up with an idea which is to make all of the instruments undesirable that no one will still them, Onion puts up a sign that says "OLD WORTHLESS GUITARS", Onion ask Apple if he did his side as well, Apple agrees; only to reveal that he destroyed all the instruments causing Chicken Nugget to get mad at them and causing them to get banned despite Chicken Nugget saying that the instruments can't be stolen and the instruments we're only broken, They stop Chicken Nugget from kicking them out and Chicken Nugget gives them one more chance, they come up with another plan, Which is to catch the thief using security cameras, As they do so, It goes well at first, suddenly, Chicken Nugget realizes that the cameras are only pointing at one instrument which is an expensive golden guitar, Due to it being the most expensive instrument, they pan the camera away to reveal that the rest of the instruments we're stolen. Leading to them getting banned for life.

They are now crying in the streets due to being banned, suddenly, Sushi roll walks in and tells Onion if they want to save the whales to which he declines, Apple asks her why he didn't ask him (As if He was invisible to her) She comes back to ask Apple the same question where he also declines, It is now hopeless and they will never get the keys to the store like their superhero selves, Onion suddenly comes up with an idea, He uses his long term photographic memory, he brings up all of the music store memories and comes upon all of the memories with rats in them as usual, And he brings up the time they locked all the doors, Onion says somethings changes, Apple thinks it's their security hacks but Onion declines, Back to reality where it seems like Apple is on Onion's face, He tells Onion to tell him the thing that's change, Back into Onion's memories, Onion says that they're no rats in the memories where they locked the doors though he wonders why, Apple tells him it's because they locked all of the doors, Onion agrees all the while telling him to get off his head, Apple does so, Onion brings up all the memories with doors in it, He suddenly notices a memory with a rat running into the bathroom with a stolen instrument, He figures out that someone's been using rats to smuggle the instruments. Apple says if they catch the thief then not only Chicken Nugget will have to unban them, he'll have to give them the keys to the store, Apple suggest they go through the toilet by sneaking in using Apples power of invincibility, They successfully sneak into the bathroom and flush them selves down the toilet.

eventually, they find person who was using the rats to steal the instruments. Who was revealed to be Beef Jerky, and then call chicken Nugget that they found the instruments. The officer follows them, and learns that the prisoners stole the instruments to throw him a surprise birthday party with his family.
