Plot[]

The episode begins at Bill the Lab Guy's laboratory, where he unveils a top secret weapon in the war against evil: a voice box secured safely inside Gunther the Pink Teddy Bear. The Chief is impressed with Bill's invention, wanting it operational ASAP. As The Chief boards his car for The Chief's Convention, he tells Bill to keep an eye out, as he doesn't want the voice box to fall into the wrong hands. After The Chief leaves, Bill is sure that nothing bad can happen to it, as his lab is impregnable. Suddenly, a toolbox falls on him; Hodge Podge is revealed to have dropped it and is planning to steal the voice box to get his revenge on the Action League.

At Action Headquarters, the League cleans up because they've been told to by their boss. Stinky isn't happy about this at all, but suddenly, the phone rings and Meltman answers. What sounds like The Chief is on the other end, but it's really Hodge Podge, who has taken the voice box out of Gunther and uses it to disguise his voice to sound like The Chief himself. Hodge Podge tells the Action League in The Chief's voice that he will be at a conference all day today, so they can rest. The excited League scats to spend their day off as Meltman hangs up the phone. After Hodge Podge hangs up, he reveals that he's going to use the stolen voice box to trick the League.

Meltman is at the computer, ready to start his own page, www.meltman.com. Just as he begins, the phone rings. On the other end is Hodge Podge, who uses the voice box to disguise his voice to sound like Thundergirl's. Hodge Podge tells Meltman in Thundergirl's voice that she has a crush on him and to meet her outside by the wood shed as soon as he can. Meltman, who has always had a crush on Thundergirl, rushes off to the wood shed immediately. Hodge Podge then dials the phone to call Thundergirl and uses the voice box to disguise his voice to sound like Meltman, who promises her free eclairs.

Meanwhile, The Flesh and Stinky watch a soap opera as the phone rings again. The Flesh answers, and on the other end is Hodge Podge, who uses the voice box to disguise his voice to sound like Kenny Rogers, who tells him that he's inviting him and Stinky to join his new gym for free. The Flesh can't wait to join.

With his evil plan in motion, Hodge Podge sets off to the wood shed and finds Meltman waiting for Thundergirl, who arrives and asks Meltman where the free eclairs are. Confused, Meltman then asks Thundergirl if she said she had a crush on him. Hodge Podge pulls out a load bearing log, causing the rest of the logs to fall on the two.

The Flesh is at the gym, wearing boxing gloves, and preparing to start punching a heavy bag, which is above him and which Hodge Podge uses his saw blades to cut down. The bag then falls on The Flesh, breaking him to pieces.

Stinky lies in a toilet, thinking it's the gym's whirlpool, and sings "London Bridge". Hodge Podge then pulls the handle, causing the toilet to flush and fill with blue chlorine-laced water. A blinded Stinky tries to climb out, but is smashed by the toilet's lid and knocked out.

Moments later, the League is stuck to some flypaper with Bill outside the garage. Hodge Podge then reveals that he used his voice box to disguise his voice the whole time, after which he prepares to crush the League and Bill with the garage door. He presses the button on his remote and the garage door starts lowering, with the League screaming in fear the entire time. The Narrator asks the viewers if the League will be crushed by the garage door, then tells them to stay tuned for part two.

In the second act, the League begs Hodge Podge to stop by swearing that they'll be his best friend, but Hodge Podge isn't fooled; they're only pretending to like him because he's trying to crush them! Suddenly, the garage door starts opening. Hodge Podge wonders why it did that as the answer is revealed to him; The Chief has just come back in his car and used his own remote to open the garage door. Hodge Podge tells The Chief to leave, as he's ruining his evil plan! However, The Chief simply runs Hodge Podge over with his car. Thankfully, the League is still safe, as they were placed in between the path of the car's tires. The Flesh is happy that they're saved, and Meltman boasts about how big-mouthed jerks always get their comeuppance in the end. Suddenly, The Chief closes the garage door, which crushes the League anyway as the episode concludes.
