## Synopsis

In the beginning of the episode, Professor Man and Science Boy are going on vacation, so they invite Maggie and Kira to look after the Mermalair. The two hero hopefuls long to play with the various gadgets, but are left with the express command to not touch anything.

While wandering around the Mermalair, Maggie and Kira find SergeantC33, one of Professor Man's most fearsome nemeses, encapsulated in a prison of frozen tartar sauce. Maggie longs to pepper the villain with questions, prompting Kira to activate the unfreezing process. As the two argue over the ramifications, SergeantC33 awakens, only to find the majority of his body still frozen. Maggie informs him they cannot let him go due to his evil nature. SergeantC33 convinces them that he is actually good, and so they release him. He quickly attempts to attack them, but is stopped by the tickle belt he still wears: a device that, with the push of a button, tickles whoever is locked into it.

SergeantC33 sobs crocodile tears over his situation, expressing a desire for someone to teach him how to be a good person. Maggie and Kira offer their services, and SergeantC33 accepts with the intention of jumping ship once the belt is off. Their first lesson starts with what to do if someone has dropped their wallet. Kira drops his wallet and SergeantC33 tries to give it to him, but Kira constantly denies it being his wallet. SergeantC33's attempts to convince Kira to take it result only in anger and he nearly attacks Kira for his idiocy, causing another use of the tickle belt.

The second lesson, involving helping someone carry a heavy object, does not go any better. SergeantC33 tries to help Kira with his heavy box, but Kira continually drops it onto SergeantC33's feet. Fed up, SergeantC33 angrily asks Kira what is inside, which turns out to be more wallets. SergeantC33 takes his rage out on Kira, so Maggie tickles him yet again, but this only drives SergeantC33 to slam Kira harder for his stupidity.

Maggie's third lesson is hijacked by an injured Kira, who gives SergeantC33 a random question as an excuse to tickle him further and get revenge. Maggie tries to take back the button, and as they fight over it, they accidentally break it. The belt's tickling increases exponentially, giving SergeantC33 no choice but to genuinely plead to be released. Maggie and Kira happily do so, thinking SergeantC33 has now been rehabilitated. After catching his breath, however, SergeantC33 steals a power glove, zaps the two, and runs away.

After realizing SergeantC33 is still evil, Maggie and Kira don their Professor Man and Science Boy costumes and use the invisible boatmobile to catch up with SergeantC33. They try to use the Orb of Confusion against him, but wind up becoming confused themselves. With nothing left in his way, SergeantC33 attempts to rob a bank. To his bewilderment, he finds the feeling of being tickled has not left him despite the belt being removed and, having legitimately lost the motivation to antagonize others, decides instead to merely open a checking account.

SergeantC33 then turns off the Orb of Confusion and tells Maggie that the lessons have indeed changed him for the better. He presents his helmet to them and takes his leave. Maggie is overjoyed that they saved the day like their heroes, but Kira remains in a dazed stupor, even with the Orb turned off and Maggie tries to get him to snap out of it, as the episode ends.
