The show begins with a thunderstorm in Starry Island, where a beam of light hits Tee Zeng's house and goes into a sock in the laundry.

Tee Zeng is running after a mysterious figure in a black coat, but her dream is interrupted and she is abruptly woken up after her mother calls her name multiple times. Tee Zeng wakes up, after falling onto the floor, and goes downstairs after getting ready.

TZ's Mom tells her there was a blackout last night, and asks her to help with the laundry, to which Tee Zeng reluctantly agrees to do after finishing breakfast. She goes to the laundry and starts humming her mother’s song a melody.

Master Kicko suddenly wakes up, finding himself in the laundromat, and is very confused. He struggles to navigate himself around the place, but eventually Tee Zeng finds him and gets him cleaned while asking him questions about who he is. She jokingly names him a 'Kung Fu Sock' and begs him to let her help when she finds out that he has an important mission.

Not wanting to be burdened with her, Kung Fu Sock refuses, but Tee Zeng follows him around Starry Island and then starts to tour him around the city. While at the Rainbow Cat Market, a dog suddenly grabs Kung Fu Sock and runs off, but Tee Zeng is able to chase after it and save Kung Fu Sock from falling down a drain. Then, they encounter a carnivorous plant attempting to attack them - the first of many Kwei.

Kung Fu Sock explains to Tee Zeng that the Kwei are evil spirits which can possess and control living beings, making them extremely dangerous, and that his mission is to guard the scroll which can seal evil spirits - and now, to seal all the escaped Kwei.

Kung Fu Sock tries to attack it, but he gets hurt badly and Tee Zeng ends up captured in some vines. Just as Tee Zeng is about to be swallowed by the plant, his grip on the pole loosens and he glows, then disappears.

Suddenly, the plant emits glowing beams of light, and as its mouth opens and lets out a large beam of light, a pink flowy-haired girl floats onto the ground - Tee Zeng and Kung Fu Sock have merged into one!

Tee Zeng can now use Kung Fu Sock's moves; she starts trying to fight back, but Kung Fu Sock decides they need to make a plan first. Tee Zeng works out that the Kwei is inside its belly, and attacks it with Rainbow Cyclone Kick, forcing the Kwei out. Kung Fu Sock reminds her to capture the Kwei, and when that is done, she de-transforms.

After Kung Fu Sock reveals that the mission is not finished yet, Tee Zeng decides that he should live with her, and he reluctantly agrees to let her help with the mission.

On the way back to her house, Tee Zeng decides that she should choose a code name, and despite Kung Fu Sock's opinion, she settles for 'Kung Fu Girl'.

* Kung Fu Sock’s Eyes keep losing his pupils after he wakes up but sometimes he gets them back.
* Also when Kung Fu Sock wakes up, his eyes look his normal human self which makes no sense.
* Kung Fu Sock calls Tee Zeng a lady even though she is a girl.
* Kung Fu Sock gets shocked when he lights up and somehow found the dragon scroll by the first time.
