After they reached Texas Fidget soon saw Dr. Claw's jet and they landed far away from it where they wouldn't be seen. They then climbed over a short rocky wall and saw Dr. Claw below them aiming a laser gun at Penny, who was chained to a shorter rocky wall opposite them. Dr. Claw's goons were nearby too.
"Let me go!" Penny protested, struggling to free herself.
"Fat chance, this time Gadget is going to lose. And the first thing I'm going to do to make sure of it is to get rid of you!" Dr. Claw retorted. "I should have known that Gadget's idiocy act wasn't an act!"
"'Idiocy'?" Gadget repeated, whispering. "What does he mean by that?"
"He means that you're an idiot, which you are." Didget said.
"Well way to go easy on his feelings." Fidget frowned disapprovingly.
"Hey, he was gonna have to find out eventually." Didget retorted defensively.
Gadget slid back down to the ground and sat down, looking upset but not insulted.
"I'm an idiot? I was an idiot this whole time?" Gadget said to himself. "What happened to me?"
"What do you mean?" William asked.
"I used to be a great detective." Gadget explained. "I solved a lot of cases on my own, but then there was that one case... I had a horrible accident, and that's how I became Gadget. Turning me into a cyborg was the only way to save my life. My real name is John Brown."
"Maybe the accident did something to your brain." Didget suggested, now sympathetic.
"Maybe." Gadget sighed, looking defeated.
"Hey don't give up." William said. "I've got an idea, I'll make an attempt to save Penny, but it will actually be a distraction. Then you guys go in and save her."
William left before Gadget or the Gadgetinis could say anything.
"So what do we do?" Fidget asked.
Gadget suddenly got up.
"I know, my Extendo-Limbs!" He said. "I'll stretch between the two rocky walls and you two stretch down and free Penny."
"Maybe you aren't that big an idiot after all." Didget said, surprised by Gadget's idea.
"Maybe, but I want to stop being an idiot entirely. Is there anyway to improve my IQ?"
"Well those aliens who moved onto the moon had some sort of technology that boosted your intelligence. Maybe they can help." Fidget suggested.
"Right, I'll talk to them about it after we stop Dr. Claw."
Gadget and the Gadgetinis went to the top of the rocky wall and waited. It didn't take long for William to show up.
"Stop!" He called out.
"Billy!" Dr. Claw said, shocked. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to save Penny!" William said. "I won't let you hurt her!"
"Hurt her? I'm going to kill her!" Dr. Claw corrected.
"No!" William ran towards Penny.
"Stop him!" Dr. Claw ordered.
A few goons grabbed William and held him back, but he still struggled to get to Penny.
"Don't, leave her alone! I love her!" William admitted desperately.
Penny looked at him with affection.
"Disgusting..." Dr. Claw muttered. "How dare you betray the family!"
"You're no family of mine!" William retorted. "I'd rather be an orphan than be considered a relative of yours! In fact call me an orphan, I'm seceding from the family!"
"Fine!" Dr. Claw snapped. "I never cared about you anyway!"
Dr. Claw charged the laser gun!
"No!" William said, breaking free from the goons and running towards Dr. Claw.
He leapt onto Dr. Claw, causing the laser gun, which was on a revolving disc, to spin around randomly! William and Dr. Claw struggled to gain control of the laser.
Fidgit and Didgit unchained Penny during this and lowered her to safety. Gadget then gently lowered himself and the Gadgetinis onto the ground.
William was suddenly flung off the laser gun! He sailed through the air and landed painfully onto the ground. He didn't move...
"Billy!" Penny gasped.
Dr. Claw had gained control of the laser gun by this point and so turned to Penny with disappointment.
"So you finally arrived!" He growled to Gadget.
"Yeah I arrived." Gadget glared back, furious. "I may be an idiot but there is no one more determined than me when it comes to protecting my family. You are going to pay for trying to kill Penny!"
Gadget produced weapons and blasted them towards Dr. Claw and the goons. Dr. Claw tried to hit Gadget with his laser, but Gadget's weapons made it hard to aim properly.
As Gadget and Dr. Claw battled Penny and the Gadgetinis went to check on William. Didget quickly contacted General Sir as Penny gently tried to wake up William. It took a few seconds but William woke up, albeit with a headache.
"Billy." Penny smiled. "You tried to save my life."
"And succeeded, all that I did earlier was just a distraction so that your uncle and the Gadgetinis could save you." William smiled back.
"You are the smartest boy I had ever..." Penny hugged William. "I love you too."
William hugged her back.
Suddenly, there was an explosion! Gadget had managed to hit the laser gun with one of his weapons. It didn't kill Dr. Claw though, he only landed on the ground slightly burnt but otherwise unharmed.
WOMP's planes and jets arrived to arrest Dr. Claw, but before they could Dr. Claw suddenly pulled out a strange looking gun and blasted Gadget with an electric bolt! Gadget short-circuited and fell to the ground unconscious!
"Uncle Gadget!" Penny gasped.
She, the Gadgetinis, and William who was feeling better, ran over to Gadget. General Sir's men quickly arrested Dr. Claw and the MAD agents.
Sparks of electricity flew off Gadget. Fidget, concerned, put a hand on Gadget's shoulder and immediately got electrified. He quickly let go.
"*Ow!*" Fidget's eyes rolled around "What a shocker."
"You're a robot, you're not supposed to feel pain." Didget pointed out.
"Okay then you try it." Fidget retorted.
Didget, knowing when he was beaten, said nothing.
Meanwhile, Colonel Nozzaire snuck around to the other side of the rocky wall the others were in front of and begun a celebration dance.
The sparks on Gadget soon quit, making it safe to touch him. Unexpectedly General Sir's daughter Jeanette came out of one of the planes.
"When I heard about Penny's kidnapping I got worried and insisted on coming." She explained. "Oh Gadget..."
She went over to Gadget and hugged him.
"You love him don't you?" General Sir guessed.
"Yes, he's the kindest guy I had ever known, plus he's a lot of fun." Jeanette nodded.
She then kissed him, on the lips instead of the cheek. Gadget suddenly woke up, but he didn't go 'out of control' like before. This time he just smiled and melted into the kiss, his heart quickly beating against his chest.
"Wait, where's Colonel Nozzaire?" General Sir asked, looking around.
Didgit brought out a satellite and scanned the air.
"He's around the rock wall...but you're not going to like what he's doing." Didgit frowned.
Confused, Jeanette helped Gadget up and they all went around the wall. There they caught Nozzaire doing his celebratory dance...which included him singing about Gadget being gone.
"Colonel Nozzaire!" General Sir snapped.
Nozzaire froze so well that if he was in a park a pigeon would've mistaken him for a statue. Okay, now I'm wishing Nozzaire was in a park at that moment...
"What do you think you're doing?" General Sir continued, furious. "Gadget is one of our best men and you're happily thinking that he's gone?"
"Well General Sir...you see...I uh..." Nozzaire stammered. "Well Gadget is a bumbling idiot..."
"Even so he has a good heart and cares a lot about others, which is more than I can say about you!" General Sir glared. "This is the final straw Nozzaire, you're demoted to Private!"
Nozzaire hung his head, shamed and defeated.
"Lieutenant Gadget, you are hereby promoted to Colonel." General Sir then turned to Gadget, smiling.
"Thank you General Sir." Gadget smiled; he then turned to the Gadgetinis. "I guess this makes you two Lieutenants now. You both deserve it for all the help you have given me in the past."
"Wow, thanks Lieu-er-Colonel." Fidget smiled.
"This is great!" Didget smiled. "We have definitely proven that machines can be more than workers for humans."
"And Penny, I hear that you have been the real key behind Gadget's successes." General Sir smiled.
"Yes General Sir, and William here has also been a big help recently." Penny smiled back.
"Well even though you two are underage we have a lot to thank you for, so you two are honorary members of WOMP." General Sir continued. "You won't be given missions of your own, but you'll be allowed to continue helping Gadget like you have done in the past. Only this time, you'll be granted full access into headquarters and will be able to report back to me."
"Wow, thank you General Sir." William smiled.
General Sir turned to William.
"William, when Didget told me what was going on earlier he also told me about you." General Sir said. "I'm glad that you're nothing like the rest of your family, and as a reward for that I'll help you find a new family."
"Actually, I was thinking of moving in with the Gadgets." William said. "That way it would be easier to work alongside Penny when we're helping her uncle."
"Sounds good to me." Penny smiled, taking William's hand.
"I like it too." Gadget smiled.
"Then I agree." General Sir said.
Dr. Claw and MAD were taken aboard the plane versions of paddy wagons while Gadget and his family, including William, went back into the helicopter. General Sir and the other WOMP agents went back into the planes, except this time Nozzaire had to go into one of the regular planes instead of the official one General Sir was in.
Dr. Claw and the MAD agents WOMP captured were immediately taken to a special prison where they would never be able to escape. There were still some MAD agents at large, but without Dr. Claw to lead them they were now as dangerous as regular criminals. As for Dr. Claw's mom she never bothered to help him out, she was too furious with him for making William leave the family.
