But Lars and his guards are unaware of the gals various gadgets. No sooner had they been deposited on the floor, they started to use their laser lipsticks to sever their bonds by their hands. They waited until the guards left before cutting the bonds at their feet. Alex quickly gets up and turns off the gas.
"Ok, let's get out of here!" says Sam.
"We're in luck, girlfriends! They put us in the same storage room we used to gain access!" says Clover and she uses her anti-gravity ring to move the storage cabinet. The girls quickly enter the tunnel and put the storage cabinet back. They want to clear any carbon monoxide out of their system before continuing with the mission.
After about 10 minutes, the gals are ready to return. Clover moves the storage cabinet with her ring and all three girls don their inviso-gas masks.
"All right girls! Let's show Lars how we fight back!" says Sam.
"Yeah! Let's kick some bad guy butt!!" says Alex.
"I'll hit my WOOHP distress button," says Clover.
The girls decide to use the suction part of their go-go boots and walk on the ceiling to the 'Interrogation Room'. As they get to the room, they can see that the door is open. Lars is talking to his henchmen.
"With those snoopers out of the way, we can concentrate on developing those products for worldwide distribution. I'll make billions!!"
"Not if we can help it!" says Sam as the girls stand in the doorway.
"How did you escape???? GET THEM!" says Lars.
The gals launch their attacks. Alex does a flying kick right to the head of two henchmen. They fall backward, hitting their heads on a table, and are out cold! "YEAH!" says Alex exuberantly.
Clover also employs a flying kick into two henchmen, but she doesn't get the same results. They were expecting it and side step the kick! As she goes flying by, they each grab a hold of an arm! Sam sees this and does a floor swoop kick to knock one of the henchmen down. Clover then uses her judo to throw the other henchman into a cabinet, knocking him out.
But Lars has raised the alarm! Soon the room is teaming with henchmen, and the spies are surrounded.
"What do we do?" says Clover.
"I wish we were weightless! Then we could fly right over them!" says Alex.
"Alex! You're a genius!" says Sam.
"I am?" says Alex.
"Of course! We don't have to be weightless! We can make THEM weightless with our rings!" says Sam.
"I totally forgot about that!" says Clover.
The girls start to deploy their anti-gravity rings, aiming them at the henchmen. Soon henchmen are being used as human projectiles against their fellow henchmen. It doesn't take long for all of the henchmen to be knocked out cold! The gals share a high five! "YEAH!"
"Now for Lars Ingstram!" says Sam.
But Lars has no intention of being arrested. He has a large semi-automatic rifle aimed at the girls.
"You may have stopped my guards, but you won't get me!"
As the gals stare down the barrel of the rifle, Alex says under her breath, "OK, Jerry! Aren't you about due with WOOHP?"
And almost as if on cue, WOOHP streams into the room! There are five WOOHP agents with pistols pointed at Lars, working their way to right in front of the girls. There are three WOOHP agents with rifles behind Lars and three more with rifles on either side of Lars.
"Lars, if I were you, I'd put that thing down!" says Jerry.
Lars' eyes grow big as he sees all the firepower aimed at him. He quickly drops the rifle, and is immediately handcuffed! He is led away with his head down. WOOHP is also arresting all of the henchmen.
"Perfect timing, Jerry!" says Clover.
"Yes, well we would have been about three minutes sooner, but we had to neutralize five guard dog patrols first! Are you girls all right?"
"Fine Jerry! We can also show you where the stolen projects are!" says Sam.
Back at WOOHP, Jerry and the girls review the mission.
"Lars Ingstram intended to get richer off of these projects! He planned to produce them out of the USA for a few years and then bring them in!" Sam says.
"I see," says Jerry. "That way it would be almost impossible to prove that his products were made from the stolen high school projects from a few years back!"
"That's right, Jerry!" says Clover.
"It's really a quite ingenious plan! He probably would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you girls! Outstanding job!" says Jerry.
All three gals smile and say, "Thanks, Jerry!" in unison.
Alex is slyly smiling, though. "Jerry? Does the theft of high school science projects really fall under the auspices of WOOHP?"
Jerry is a little embarrassed, "Well, actually, it does and it doesn't! Seeing that Lars was going to produce the products internationally, it does."
Clover asks, with a sly grin on her face, "...and it doesn't because..."
Jerry stammers, "Well it doesn't because they were high school projects! Normally we would leave those cases to the local police!"
Sam then asks, with a big grin on her face, "Why did you mobilize WOOHP for this case, Jerry?"
Again Jerry stammers and blushes, "Well, it just seemed so unfair to you Samantha!"
Sam gets up off the landing cushion and gives Jerry a big hug. "Thanks, Jerry! I know you went out on a limb for me! Thank you!" She gives him a quick kiss on the cheek as she releases her hug. Jerry again blushes, as he smiles.
"By the way, the Pembroke Gala has been rescheduled for this upcoming Friday! I know I'll see you there, Sam, but I would like to extend an invitation to Clover and Alex to come as my special guests!"
"REALLY?" says Alex excitedly.
"NO KIDDING?" says Clover happily.
"Yes, girls! You certainly played a large role in getting the stolen projects back. It is only fitting for you to be invited to the Gala. Will you come?" asks Jerry.
"You bet!" says Alex.
"I'm there!" says Clover.
"Excellent! I will pick you two up between 7:15 and 7:30 PM Friday! Remember! It is a formal affair!"
As the girls leave Jerry's office, all three are excited about the Gala.
"We'll be there to see you win, Sammy!" says Alex.
"Well, don't jump the gun! I may just get a plaque!" says Sam.
"But that's almost like a win! Only two projects out of thousands get a plaque! It's still a big honor!" says Clover.
"I agree, Clover! I just wish we could squeeze more info out of Jerry as to which project won! Obviously, he knows!" says Sam.
"Well, we have a whole 5 days to work on him!" says Alex slyly.
