Plot[]

The episode begins one night with Bill the Lab Guy showing the Action League the joys of stargazing through his telescope. The Flesh asks Bill what he and the rest of the League are looking at. Bill tells him, "The Stars", and The Flesh thinks they mean movie stars. He then knocks the others over and wants to look through the telescope, too. Bill starts to regret inviting the League over, and when he looks through the telescope again, he sees a meteor heading towards their planet!

As the meteor continues to speed, Meltman, Stinky, and The Flesh make excuses to get out of saving the Earth, but The Chief tells them that they're the Earth's only hope. Bill explains his plan to the League, saying that they will be sent on a rocket to intercept the meteor and knock it off course with some really big bombs. The League likes this plan, and with no time to waste, The Chief tells them to begin their training for space travel.

At the kitchen, Bill and The Chief put the League in a salad spinner to simulate the gravitational effects of take-off (thus resembling a g-force replicator). The Chief pulls the rope, which spins the spinner really fast and makes the League dizzy and nauseous. The spinner then falls down over the kitchen shelf and crashes into a wall.

Later, the League stands on a bullseye as Bill says that the pressure simulator will prepare them for the extreme conditions of deep space. Stinky observes that the simulator looks like a sledgehammer as Bill hits the Leauge with it, then claims that the sledgehammer is part of the simulation.

Next, the League is on a slingshot. Bill is about to explain the effects of the launch simulator, but Stinky tells him to just get the simulation over with. The slingshot then launches them onto the ceiling, and The Flesh asks if they're saving the world yet. The Narrator tells him that they aren't yet, but they will soon.

The Narrator decides to skip to the next scene, where moments later, the League is in the rocket as it's being launched into space. Bill tells The Chief that the fate of the world is in the League's hands. The Chief asks Bill if everyone's going to die, and Bill tells him, "Yes."

In space, the League sings a spoof of "The Wheels On the Bus" while approaching the meteor, stopping when Thundergirl notices it on the rocket's radar. The Chief then appears on the screen and tells them to arm and deploy the bombs. The shocked League suddenly remembers that they forgot to bring them. The Chief angrily tells them that he asked them if they had everything before they left, and The Flesh argues that they thought he meant their toothbrushes. Meltman then says that they're going to head back home, but the more-enraged Chief disapproves that they must crash into the meteor under his orders. Meltman ignores him and purposely cuts off their transmission as Stinky tells the League that as much as he likes the people of Earth, he won't risk his life to save theirs and is going to turn the rocket around. The rest of the League cheers, until he accidentally breaks the steering wheel, dooming them all. The Narrator asks the viewers if the League will crash into the meteor, but then whines that he doesn't care about them because he doesn't want to die. After that, he tells the viewers to stay tuned for part two.

In the second act, with their rocket headed for the meteor, the League reflects on their lives' meanings. Thundergirl is upset that she never got to direct, Meltman tells the League that even though he's just a chunk of melted plastic, at least he tried, Stinky tells The League they're not such tossers after all, and The Flesh detects that he's naked. Finally, the League's rocket crashes straight down into the meteor.

Moments later, the League regain consciousness and see that they're on the meteor, having knocked it off course and saving the planet. Thundergirl then says that the Earth is going to give them the biggest parade when they return, but the Earth is sadly millions of miles away from them and they're still stuck on the meteor.

Back on Earth, Bill tells The Chief not to worry, as according to his calculations, the meteor will return to the Earth's orbit in the next 100,000 years, making The Chief, who is wearing a fez and holding a drink, happy. Finally, he asks Bill if he looks upset as the episode ends.
