| The episode begins with a shot of a building. A laser cuts a circular hole in the building, which opens. Gandra Dee walks out, holding a cube. | |
|---|---|
| Gandra | In and out faster than you can say... |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | Blathering blatherskite! |
| Gandra | Ugh, here we go. |
| Huey | Not so fast, you F.O.W.L. agent! Unhand that electronic disruptor, or face Gizmo-justice! Right, Gizmoduck? |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | Um, yes! I'm afraid that doesn't belong to you, Agent Dee. |
| Gandra | Oh, and I'm afraid I don't care. |
| Gandra runs away, and Gizmoduck and Huey give chase. She throws a small metal sphere over her shoulder. | |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | Hah! No mere marble can stop the... |
| The sphere extends and grabs Gizmoduck's wheel, preventing him from moving, almost like a boot. | |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | Incredible! Innovational! Uh, diabolical! |
| Huey | You remember you can fly, right? |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | Yes... of course. I'll just... |
| The Helmetcopter opens, allowing Gizmoduck to fly. He chases Gandra, who stops at the end of a dock. | |
| Gandra | Hey! I drop this into the water, and the resulting shockwave will short circuit all of Duckburg. |
| Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera | You wouldn't dare! |
| Gandra smirks and throws the cube up in the air. | |
| Huey | She dared. |
| Fenton attempts to catch the disruptor, but his arm gets stuck. Gandra leaps up and summons a ball of electricity. Fenton extends his arm and catches the disruptor just before it hits the water, preventing it from shorting out Duckburg, just as Gandra jumps on his head. She appears upside-down and vanishes in a flash of electricity. | |
| Huey | D'aw man, she got away! |
| Fenton | But, we kept F.O.W.L. from getting that dangerous disruptor. And, I've got a feeling we haven't seen the last of Gandra Dee. |
| In the lab, the elevator opens and Fenton walks out, carrying a duffel bag. He bumps into Gyro. | |
| Gyro Gearloose | Dr. Intern? What are you doing at the lab so late? |
| Fenton | I was just pulling an all-nighter because I can't quite figure out this experiment, because I'm not nearly as smart as you, because you're so smart...? |
| Gyro | Sounds about right. Don't blow anything up. |
| Gyro leaves. | |
| Fenton | Phew. Finally alone. |
| His phone rings, and he answers. | |
| Fenton | Mama! You're still awake? |
| Officer Cabrera | I'm your mother, I don't sleep until you do. Why aren't you at home? |
| Fenton | Just working late. |
| Officer Cabrera | Que raro, 'cause I talked to your co-worker, the horse thing, and he said you hadn't been in the lab all day. |
| Fenton | Hahahahahahaha, don't listen to Manny. H-His heart is in the right place, but his eyes are made of statue. |
| Officer Cabrera | Are you seeing someone? |
| Fenton | Whaaat? Nooo~... (Makes explosion noises as he walks to the bathroom) Oh no, a dangerous lab accident, but not so dangerous you need to come check on me! Talk later, mama, byee~! |
| Fenton opens the bathroom door, revealing a computer. | |
| Fenton | Sorry, Mama. Can't tell you what's going on. Not yet. |
| He turns on the computer, plugs his helmet into the computer, puts it on, and in a flash of light, is teleported into a virtual temple-like structure on a hill, with a city around it. As he walks, pieces are added to the temple. | |
| Gandra | (off-screen) Do you think they bought it? |
| Fenton looks. Gandra is silhouetted against a column of the temple. | |
| Fenton | Of course they bought it. Well, mama sounded suspicious, and I could hear my heart beating so loudly that I think other people can hear it, but... |
| Gandra | (laughs) Oh suit. (steps into the light) I'm gonna choose to believe your heart's beating for me and take it as a compliment. |
| They kiss. | |
| Theme song plays. | |
| Fenton and Gandra finish kissing. | |
| Fenton | So, how much secret science time do we have today? (creates a purple rose and hands it to her) |
| Gandra | A few hours. F.O.W.L. is busy on their own missions, so nobody should notice if I hijack their servers for a little private world-building. (turns rose into a beaker) |
| Fenton | Collaboration and action. That's what the Gizmocloud is all about! |
| Gandra | Meh. |
| Fenton | I've planned alternatives. The Gizmovoid. Gizmospace. Gizmotopia! |
| Gandra | Yeah, it wasn't the "Cloud" part I had a problem with. |
| A strange, pixelated blob appears. Gandra notices it. | |
| Gandra | Ugh! Man, another glitch! |
| Fenton | You know, Dr. Gearloose could help us get rid of these bugs. |
| Gandra | No! No, we can't tell anyone about this place! Uh, n-not yet. |
| She removes the glitch from the column by drawing a box around it with her finger, walks over to a different part of the temple with it, and creates a lab to experiment on it. | |
| Fenton | But, we made this place to share with the world. Shouldn't we... start sharing? |
| Gandra | How many times have you shared an amazing invention with someone only to have them call you a dangerous crackpot? |
| Fenton | Today? |
| Gandra | Everything has to be perfect before we share this place. |
| Fenton | Any place where we're together already is perfect. |
| Gandra | (teasingly) Gross. |
| Fenton | This is going to be... |
| Mark Beaks | The greatest scientific achievement in hiz-istory! My "hot" new software update is guaranteed to reduce the chances of your Waddle phone catching fire by a jaw-dropping seven percent, bringing it down to a solid 50/50. Any questions? Any—, wait, Where is everybody? |
| Reporter | Yes, why are you still a thing? |
| Mark Beaks | EXCUSE YOU? |
| Reporter | Waddle sales are tanking, your phones are exploding... |
| Mark Beaks | I'll have you know that I'm actually working on a top-secret new project... |
| Reporter | Does it involve stealing the Gizmoduck armor? |
| Mark Beaks | Wha-, N-No! |
| Reporter | Because you've tried it five times. It's very very sad. |
| Mark Beaks | No, it's not! (to self) Oh, they've got your number, Beaksy. If I can't steal the next big thing, I'm gonna have to (gasps) come up with an original idea! (phone catches fire) Agh, ow, ow, ow ow ow! |
| Back at the lab, Fenton is kissing the air. Huey walks in and clears his throat. | |
| Huey | A-Ahem! |
| Fenton | Huey! |
| Huey | Fenton, I'm sorry to interrupt... whatever you were doing, but I was searching the docks and found a piece of Agent Dee's clothing embedded with nanites. |
| Fenton | Agent Dee, you say... (nervously pushes aside computer) |
| Huey | If we can reverse engineer their signal, it could lead us right to her! Hey, what are you working on? |
| Fenton | Oh nothing, it's not at all revolutionary or earth-shattering or even a little brilliant... |
| Huey | Did you create a virtual reality cloudspace? With thought-based environmental manipulation? Can I see it, please, please, PLEASE? |
| Fenton | I'd love to, but you can only access it through a VR helmet and the Gizmohelmet only responds to me. Awh, If only I... |
| Manny walks in with a cart of VR headsets and clops out "Here are the extra VR headsets you asked for." Huey looks excited. | |
| Fenton | (through gritted teeth) Thank you Manny, how convenient. |
| Huey grabs a VR headset and plugs it into Fenton's computer. | |
| Fenton | No, Huey, stop! You don't understand! |
| Huey is teleported into the Gizmocloud. | |
| Huey | Woah. Amazing! Incredible! |
| Gandra | (from behind Huey) What the... |
| Huey | F.O.W.L.? Gah! |
| He picks up a beaker and throws it at her. She dissolves it with a wave of her hand and walks around from the lab. Fenton beams in. | |
| Fenton | Gandra Dee? How did you get in here... a place we've never been in together... villain? |
| Gandra | Ugh, you are such a bad liar. |
| Huey | He was lying? Wait, Fenton, are you... working for Gandra Dee? |
| Fenton | No, not working for, working with. |
| Huey | But she's a F.O.W.L. agent! Are you a F.O.W.L. agent? WHAT IS HAPPENING? |
| Gandra summons a weighted blanket, which covers Huey. | |
| Huey | What's this? Some evil F.O.W.L. trap?! |
| Gandra | No, it's a weighted blanket. It helps with anxiety. |
| Huey | Well, it can't stop ME from being ANXIOUS! I... I... curses, I'm totally relaxed now. |
| Gandra turns to Fenton. | |
| Gandra | I can't believe you let someone in! |
| Fenton | It was an accident. But, he's not gonna judge us. Huey, Gandra and I have been working on the Gizmocloud in secret. Together. |
| Huey | But, she's an evil cyborg. |
| Gandra | Yeah, this kid seems real judgement-free. |
| Soft music plays. Fenton holds Gandra's hand, and she looks at Huey. A bar labeled "anxiety level" appears over Huey's head and fills halfway. Gandra sighs and pulls away from Fenton. | |
| Gandra shows Huey a flashback of her when she was younger. | |
| Gandra | My whole life, I've tried to push the boundaries of science, but that means people don't always get what you're doing. |
| Little girl | Oh yeah! |
| Young Gandra sadly holds her invention, and accidentally activates it, blasting a hole in the little girl's volcano. It falls down, and the little girl starts sobbing. The teacher glares at Gandra, who has tears in her eyes. | |
| Gandra | Super science can be dangerous. It's why I ended up having to experiment on myself (shows memory of Gandra getting electrocuted by nanites) and why the only people who would fund my work are villains (shows hologram of Bradford, frightening Huey) who don't care how much destruction I cause. |
| Fenton | (pushing through the hologram of Bradford, which dissipates) But what if there was a lab where you could perform any experiment with no chance of anyone getting hurt? (pours contents from one test tube to the other, causing an explosion) |
| Huey | Gaaah! (dives for cover, then looks up) |
| Gandra pauses the explosion, freezing it in midair. She shrinks it, and throws it to Huey, who catches it. | |
| Huey | No one gets hurt because it's all virtual! |
| Fenton | If you have an idea, you can make a gizmo. We could share it for free. Bring super science to the world! |
| Huey | (to Gandra) No! You attacked us! You stole stuff for F.O.W.L.! |
| Gandra | I've been tipping Fenton off to stop me before I do. I'm using their resources to build this place. Once it's done, I can quit F.O.W.L. for good. |
| Fenton | We're so close to finishing, but the lab keeps glitching. If Dr. Gearloose or F.O.W.L. discovers us before it's ready, they may shut us down. |
