Meanwhile, Minion came to see Ingrid, Gregorio, Perry, and Patch as they were locked up together. Patch began to growl at Minion.
"Alexander Minion." Gregorio looked at the man as he entered the room.
Perry growled at Minion, not liking him one bit.
"Agent Cortez," Minion greeted Gregorio. "Wonderful to see you again."
"Again?" Patch asked.
"You know him?" Ingrid added.
"Yeah," Gregorio told his wife and the animal OWCA agents. "He was on the Third Brain Project until I noticed he was trying to inject his own ideas into the system. I turned him in. He was thrown out of the OSS."
"Whoa." Patch said.
"I'm afraid I'm not nearly the artist Floop is," Minion replied as he took out a paper. "But not to worry. I have something else in mind."
"What do you mean?" Patch asked.
"What do you think you're going to accomplish by doing this?" Ingrid sneered as Minion soon latched on a helmet onto her husband's head.
"Well, you see, Mrs. Cortez, I've always been methodical, goal oriented," Minion continued. "Psychotically so."
"But that doesn't explain why you're doing this." Perry said.
"I'm not afraid of you, Alex." Gregorio scowled at Minion as he was hooked up.
"Besides, what else are you going to do to him?" Patch asked.
"Ah, you meddling animals, whose bright idea was it to have animal secret agents anyway as common household pets?" Minion scoffed at him. "So I think it's refreshing to every once in a while, have some fun. Oh, and don't worry about your little brats. They'll still be able to see you. Every weekday morning between 7:30 and 8:00." he then pushed a button.
"He's gonna turn them into Fooglies!" Perry gasped to Patch.
"But how?" Patch asked.
"Allow me to demonstrate, you mongrels." Minion smirked as he took out Juni's drawing and put it against a scanner to scan it into Gregorio's DNA to make him into a Foogly.
This caused Patch and Perry to gasp. Minion smirked as this was going according to his and Sombra's plan.
'I hope Atticus and the others are okay.' Patch thought to himself.
Cherry yelped as she soon fell with Carmen and the others and landed on something soft.
"Huh... Well, that wasn't so bad..." Cherry said once she had a soft landing for once.
"Yeah, for once." Drell agreed.
Cherry looked around only to see he landed next to her and breathed in relief as he didn't land on top of her. "Phew!"
"What should we do now?" Candace asked.
"Shh..." Drell said before turning to the other way as he heard a machine with some thumping. "Do you hear that?"
"Yeah." Carmen nodded.
Drell came closer to the end and saw several Thumb-Thumbs in action like a factory assembly line as they were being created.
"I have an idea." Drell whispered.
"Uh-oh." Cherry replied.
Meanwhile with Atticus and Metal Atticus...
"You don't know when to quit, do you?" Atticus glared at his robotic clone.
"Because... I AM YOU!" Metal Atticus glared back with fiery red eyes.
The two of them soon smirked as this seemed like fun to them.
Atticus soon pinned down Metal Atticus. "What's your story?" he demanded.
"I was programmed to be your equal." Metal Atticus glared back.
"Equal, huh?" Atticus asked. "Is that all?"
"Master Uncle Sombra gave me specific instruction." Metal Atticus replied.
"You don't have to do what he programmed you to do." Atticus said.
"Yes, I do," Metal Atticus replied. "I must complete my assignment: Study... Defeat... REPLACE!"
"Do you want to though?" Atticus asked. "I know you're a robot, but you can make your own decisions."
"I-I have no choice." Metal Atticus said.
"Sure you do." Atticus replied.
Metal Atticus was now struggling not to kick Atticus in the...balls.
"Come on, you can trust me..." Atticus told his robotic counterpart. "You don't have to serve, uh... Master Uncle Sombra. I know I sure as heck don't."
Metal Atticus soon stopped struggling and didn't fight anymore. Atticus soon got off from him. Metal Atticus stood up beside him and his eyes didn't look red anymore and they were now blue just like the real Atticus's.
"Thank you." Metal Atticus smiled.
Atticus smiled back to his robotic clone. They soon shook hands to make amends and become friends.
"We better find the others." Atticus said.
Metal Atticus nodded. "I might know where they are."
Atticus followed his robot clone to search for the others. Metal Atticus soon lead him into the virtual room.
"A Virtual Room?" Atticus replied.
"Yep, this is where half of them are." Metal Atticus said.
"Man, I really miss Mo right now..." Atticus sighed. "Why did James have to take her to meet Blythe now?"
Metal Atticus simply shrugged.
Floop was seen talking with the boys, but he didn't seem evil this time. Metal Atticus and Atticus both soon walked in.
"Floop..." Atticus whispered with a glare.
"Don't worry, he's not bad," Metal Atticus told him. "He's just been controlled by Master Uncle Sombra."
"That makes sense." Atticus said.
"I knew you'd understand." Metal Atticus replied.
"Is there a way to get you out?" Phineas asked.
"It's impossible," Floop replied. "It can only be turned off from the outside."
"What if it was electrocuted?" Jeremy asked.
"Hm..." Floop hummed. "I don't know about that."
"It's worth a shot then." Jeremy insisted with a small shrug.
"Gadget Time." Phineas said.
Ferb nodded.
"We're gonna need a blow torch and some peanut butter." Phineas told his step-brother.
"Peanut butter?" Jeremy asked out of confusion.
"It's an inventor thing." Phineas replied.
Ferb nodded back.
Jeremy chuckled. "I love it when you guys invent, it reminds me of Wallace and Gromit."
The step-brothers soon started to invent.
Juni came toward them. "Uh, could I help?" he then asked.
"You can if you want." Phineas allowed.
"Great." Juni smiled.
Phineas and Ferb soon worked together with Juni.
"You two really are brilliant." Floop admired Phineas and Ferb's help.
"Thanks." Phineas said.
"Oh, if I could, I'd stop the robot army and hope that the world would forgive me." Floop said as he seemed stuck.
"Oh, trust us, they will." Jeremy said.
"We're gonna help you and you're gonna help us, Floop." Phineas added.
"Yeah." Juni said.
"Minion must be stopped." Ferb soon said.
"Whoa!" Floop did a double take at him. "I thought you were a mute kid!"
"Ferb talks sometimes." Phineas said.
Juni soon took out one of the gumballs and decided to chew it and spit it onto Floop like his sister did against a Thumb-Thumb.
"Nice." Phineas said.
Floop was soon shocked and the virtual room shifted and everything was as it should be.
"Now let's stop Minion." Juni narrowed his eyes.
"Yeah." Atticus said.
"Along with Uncle Sombra." Metal Atticus added.
They then looked to each other and smiled as they had the same idea. They all soon left the virtual room.
"Must be stopped! Must be stopped!" Floop ranted on the way.
They soon noticed some Thumb-Thumbs.
"This one's for my sister!" Juni glared as he tackled down the Thumb-Thumb right in front of him. To his surprise, it wasn't a real Thumb-Thumb.
"Ugh, why did I agree to this?" Drell groaned as he took off the head to reveal himself.
"Hola." Juni smiled innocently.
"Get off." Drell said.
"No, no, stay on." Cherry walked over with her hands in her pockets.
"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" Drell groaned.
Cherry took out a random plate, she then grinned, but each time she moved the plate, it would be a sour frown and she did this over and over again just to annoy him.
"Quit it." Drell glared.
Cherry didn't stop.
"Cherry... Stop it..." Drell demanded.
"Nope..." Cherry replied.
"Okay, Cherry, that's enough." Atticus said.
Cherry narrowed her eyes and walked up to him. "How do I know you're the real Atticus?"
"Because I'm Metal Atticus." The robot clone told her.
"Wait, what?" Cherry's eyes widened before she looked ready to fight.
Drell soon stood up with a growl. "What have you done with our Atticus, you Robot Freak?!"
"Calm down; Metal Atticus is good now." Atticus said.
"What?" Cherry and Drell asked.
"We talked, trust me..." Atticus told them.
"It's true." Metal Atticus said.
"Hmm..." Cherry hummed suspiciously.
"Did you guys find the dungeon?" Juni asked hopefully.
"I know where it is." Metal Atticus said.
"Take us there, please, the Fooglies told us that our parents were there." Juni told the robot.
"Follow me." Metal Atticus said, leading the way.
The others then followed after him.
