## Synopsis

Fat Doc is doing yard work outside the house, first mowing the lawn and then watering flowers when he hears Slim Doc laughing in the building. Slim Doc is laughing at a television program and, as Fat Doc discovers, also left dirty clothes all over the living room. Fat Doc points out the dirty clothes and order Slim Doc to do something about them; Slim Doc promptly gathers the clothing and takes them to the laundromat. Slim Doc waits a while for the laundry to be done, and when he goes to pick up the clean clothes he spots Lamput walking outside. Slim Doc goes into the laundromat building and pays for his laundry, but is disappointed to find Lamput gone when he comes out.

Slim Doc comes back home with the newly-cleaned clothing. Fat Doc gives Slim Doc his broom so that he can take care of the cobwebs in the room, and he goes to the bedroom to fold the laundry. However, the clothes he takes out are not the docs' usual white shirt and hat, but a pair of superhero costumes - one blue with a red chest insignia and cape, and one black with a pointy-eared mask and yellow boots. Fat Doc notices this and calls Slim Doc to the bedroom, ready to hit him with one of the yellow boots from the black costume when the boot suddenly sticks to the ceiling fan above them. The docs give each other an astonished look, and Slim Doc examines and accidentally sets off a visor with laser vision from the blue costume, destroying the ceiling fan and making the boot fall back down and into Fat Doc's hands. The docs give each other excited looks and put on the costumes; Fat Doc then uses the black costume's magnet boots to attract the paper scraps throughout the house and throw them away, while Slim Doc uses the blue costume's ability to pick up heavy objects without touching them to lift the couch and allow Fat Doc to sweep under it. Fat Doc uses the magnet boots again to stick to the ceiling and dust, and Slim Doc uses his laser vision to turn a piece of bread into toast and eat it. Both docs then use their powers to send a bunch of darts at a dartboard of Lamput, and the two go outside, with Fat Doc grabbing the key for their car. When they make it to the car, however, the docs realize they don't need it and instead fly to Lamput.

Lamput walks down the sidewalk and laughs at the docs when he sees their outfits. When Lamput tries to leave, though, Fat Doc presses the button on his belt to activate his boots and bring Lamput back to him, and the fleeing Lamput nearly gets hit by a laser from Slim Doc before the two fly above him to catch up. Slim Doc uses his laser beam again to create a small crater that Lamput falls into, but gets out of shortly after. Lamput hides under a school bus, but Slim Doc lifts the bus off the ground, and Lamput finds a wall of orange paint to camouflage in, only to be discovered by Slim Doc again with his light vision.

Meanwhile, Mr. Moustache and another man are working out when an alarm goes off. Mr. Moustache uses a remote to open a door to a secret room that both men run into; the duo go to put on their superhero outfits and are surprised to find white lab outfits instead before the scene swicthes back to Lamput, who is chased in-between two buildings by the docs. Fat Doc is about to use a ray gun on Lamput and Slim Doc is preparing to use his laser again when Mr. Moustache and his sidekick step into the scene and block both attacks with their bellies. Mr. Moustache gives a whistle that rips the superhero costumes off of the docs brings them back to him and his assistant, and Mr. Moustache gives Lamput his costume's visor before flying off with his sidekick. Lamput puts the visor "Super Blobby" on and chases the now half-naked docs into the distance by shooting lasers at them.

## Trivia

### Cultural references

* The blue superhero costume, with its red chest symbol and cape, yellow belt, and black pants, is meant to be the costume worn by the DC Comics superhero Superman. The black costume's pointy ears and yellow belt make it greatly resemble the costume worn by another DC superhero, Batman.
