Senior was walking through the hallway of his lair when his cell phone rang.
"Yes?" he answered.
"Senior, it's Agent G," Giselle's scrambled voice came through. "I have bad news."
"What is it?" Senior asked.
Giselle sighed before replying, "Kim and Ron have discovered the microphone I planted in her purse."
"Don't worry, that's inconsequential," Senior spoke. "I had a feeling they would discover the microphone sooner or later. As long as they haven't discovered you yet, I trust you to find another thing that you can use against them."
"Actually," Giselle spoke. "Before they found the microphone, I heard them say something about going to Italianos tonight."
"Hmm, then perhaps we could use that to our advantage," Senior said. "I will think about it. In the meantime, follow them to Italianos and stir up trouble only if need be."
"Yes, Senior," Giselle replied.
Monique, Hope and Tara were walking home to their apartment. After Tara was done with a date she had with Josh, she joined Monique and Hope as they were walking home.
"Well, it sounded like you had a great time at the grand opening of Drew and Shea's new cupcake shop," Tara commented. "Sorry, I couldn't be there."
"It's alright, Tara," Hope said to her best friend.
"We know how much you like spending time with Josh as well as us," Monique pointed out.
Tara smiled, but then she frowned, "I still can't believe that Giselle was insulting Shea like that."
"I couldn't believe it either," Monique groaned.
"We also thought it was weird that Giselle would come all the way there just to insult Shea like that," Hope commented.
"Weird how?" Tara asked.
"Well, Ron said that it seemed like there was some kind of purpose behind it," Hope spoke. "Like she was trying to make Shea angry on purpose."
"Now that you mention it, that is weird," Tara commented, before scowling. "Not to mention low."
"The question is, why would she do that?" Monique wondered aloud.
"I don't know," Hope said. "But we might have to keep an eye out for her."
"Oh, I agree with you on that," Monique agreed.
"Ditto," Tara added.
Tara, Hope and Monique soon reached their apartment building and as they got to their floor they soon noticed that the door to Kim and Ron's room was open. They also heard noises coming from the room.
"What's going on in Kim and Ron's room?" Tara asked.
"I don't know," Was all Hope said.
"You think somethings wrong?" Monique asked.
Tara and Hope shrugged.
The three girls walked over to the room to see what was happening. They noticed that there were GJ agents moving around like they were searching the apartment for something.
"What is going on in here?" Monique asked in confusion.
"Monique! Tara! Hope!" They heard Kim speak.
They soon noticed Kim and Ron coming up to them.
"Kim, Ron, what's happening?" Hope asked. "Why are GJ agents searching your room?"
"Well..." Ron rubbed the back of his neck. "We kind of think someone might be spying on us."
"What?!" Tara, Hope, and Monique exclaimed.
"What makes you think that?" Monique asked in disbelief.
"We found this microphone when it fell out of my purse," Kim said, as she showed them the microphone. "We know it's not a Team Possible listening device and the switch was in the on position when we found it."
"We think that someone might have planted it in Kim's purse and was using it to spy on us," Ron explained.
"Who would do that?" Tara asked.
"We don't know," Kim answered. "Dr. Director is having agents search our apartment for any other bugs that might have been planted. She thinks that the bug in my purse came from the Worldwide Evil Empire."
"But how did someone get close enough to put a microphone in your purse, Kim?" Hope asked.
"I was wondering that myself," Kim said.
"Well, maybe someone snuck into our apartment and planted the microphone while we were sleeping?" Ron guessed.
Kim shook her head, "I'm afraid not, Ron. The microphone wasn't in my purse this morning."
"How do you know?" Hope asked.
"I checked to make sure I had everything," Kim replied, before chuckling nervous. "I didn't check it again until I accidentally fell and spilled everything that was in my purse."
"In other words, you discovered that you were being spied on, by accident?" Tara asked in confusion.
"Pretty much," Kim replied with an embarrassed chuckle. "And the other thing is that Ron and I hadn't been on any missions today. All we did today is go for a walk in the park, eat lunch in the dining hall and go to Drew and Shea's cupcake shop."
"Don't forget how Giselle insulted us twice today," Ron pointed out.
"Ugh, don't even get me started on that," Monique groaned.
"Hmm..." Kim started thinking.
"What are you thinking, Kim?" Hope asked.
"This microphone wasn't in my purse until sometime today," Kim spoke. "The same day Giselle just decides out of nowhere to try and get under our skins."
"Wait, Girl, are you saying that Giselle might be the one who was spying on you and Ron?" Monique asked in disbelief.
"But if the microphone really did come from the Worldwide Evil Empire," Hope started.
"Then that would mean that Giselle..." Tara continued.
"Might be working with them?" They finished in unison.
"It might be jumping to a conclusion," Kim said with a serious face. "But it makes sense."
"Yeah, she had my monkey senses going off when she insulted Shea today," Ron pointed out.
"Now that you mention it, I wouldn't put it past her," Monique spoke.
"Yeah, she's been low enough as it is," Hope added.
"But why would she team up with WEE?" Tara asked.
"I don't know," Kim said. "But until we find out who's really behind this, Giselle is a suspect."
"Agreed," The others said in unison.
Kim and the others noticed one of the agents walk up to them.
"Mrs. Stoppable," The agent spoke. "We've searched your entire apartment, but no bugs were found. It seems the only bug we have so far is the one that came from your purse."
Kim nodded, "Thank you, Agent Blackbird."
"You're welcome," Agent Blackbird spoke. "And even if they hadn't already, we still believe that WEE Agents might try to bug your apartment. Dr. Director suggested having agents watch your apartment whenever you're gone."
"That sounds fine," Kim agreed.
"Kim and I are gonna go out to dinner tonight anyway," Ron added.
"Of course," Agent Blackbird spoke. "You may go whenever you're ready. We'll have only a few agents stay and keep an eye on your apartment."
"Thanks, Agent Blackbird," Kim said appreciatively. She then handed the microphone to him. "Here's the microphone."
Agent Blackbird took the microphone into his hand and said, "I'll have this analyzed to figure out who planted it in your purse."
The agent then walked away from the group just as Kim and Ron turned to Tara, Hope, and Monique.
"KP and I are gonna go to Italianos now," Ron spoke.
"Well, have a good time," Monique said.
"And let's just hope whoever's spying on you is found and brought to justice," Hope said.
"What Hope said," Tara added.
Kim waved a hand, "So not the drama."
Gemini walked into the control room of his facility where his men were still working. He had recently been informed by Senior that Kim and Ron were going out to dinner tonight and that Senior's secret 'mole' was going to try sabotaging them. After hearing about this, he wanted to make sure that everything was running smoothly on his end too.
"Status report," Gemini said, getting the attention of the agent
Agent Zeta spoke up, "Dr. Director is having scientists analyze the microphone that Senior's informant planted on Kim Stoppable."
"Hmm, well, luckily, since we weren't responsible for the creation of said device they won't be able to trace it to us," Gemini said.
"They're also going to have agents watch the Stoppables apartment while they're out," Agent Zeta announced. "I doubt breaking in there will be easy."
"This is also inconsequential," Gemini pointed out. "Now that we know that the Stoppables are not the one with the secrets we're looking for, there is no need to stalk them. We can only hope that this 'informant's' plan to sabotage their date will keep them distracted long enough till we get to our real goal."
Agent Zeta nodded, "Understood, Sir."
"In the meantime, we might as well take this opportunity to listen in on whatever my sister might say after her scientists analyze the microphone," Gemini spoke. "Chances are she might divulge some… useful information."
"Of course," Agent Zeta responded.
Kim and Ron were walking out of their apartment building dressed in formal attire. It was decided that while Kim and Ron were at Italianos, three agents would stay behind to watch their apartment.
"Well, my most badical bride," Ron spoke in a flirty tone. "Shall we go enjoy a nice romantic dinner at Italianos?"
"We shall, my most badical groom," Kim responded in a husky voice.
As Kim and Ron walked down the street, they were unaware that someone was sitting on a bench on the other side of the street and was watching them while pretending to read a newspaper. It was Giselle, wearing a long sun hat and using a newspaper to avoid being recognized.
As soon as she saw Kim and Ron leaving their apartment, she snickered and got up from her spot to follow them.
Dr. Director was standing in the command center of her headquarters when Agent Blackbird came in.
"Dr. Director," the agent said, getting her attention.
"Yes?" Dr. Director responded.
"Kim and Ron are going out to dinner as we speak," Agent Blackbird announced. "Three of our agents are watching their apartment and so far there haven't been any break in attempts."
"Very good," Dr. Director said appreciatively. "Just make sure it stays that way until they get home."
Agent Blackbird nodded, "Yes, Maam."
"Dr. Director," a new voice came.
Dr. Director turned to see a GJ scientist walking.
"Have you discovered anything, Dr. Farnsworth?" Dr. Director inquired.
"Yes," Dr. Farnsworth answered. "The microphone didn't originate from WEE. However, after doing a little digging, we have discovered that the technology came from HenchCo."
"HenchCo," Dr. Director repeated in surprise.
"Yes, we are sure of it," Dr. Farnsworth confirmed.
Dr. Director looked thoughtful for a moment, "Thank you, Dr. Farnsworth. See what else you can find out."
The scientist nodded, "Yes, Ma'am."
The scientist walked away.
Dr. Director turned to Agent Blackbird, "I don't think this is a coincidence."
"No, it is not," Agent Blackbird agreed. "With this and the recent rumor that Gemini and Senor Senior Senior might be working together, it can only mean one thing."
Dr. Director nodded, "Yes, and whoever planted the microphone in Mrs. Stoppable's purse did it thinking that she and her friends would know what Gemini and Senior were looking for."
"This doesn't seem good, Dr. Director," Agent Blackbird speculated. "The Stoppable's and the rest of their team have no idea what happened to Miss Rockwaller and yet they're still viewed as a target. We should tell them about this immediately."
"No," Dr. Director said firmly. "If we told them, it would just increase the danger."
"But Ma'am…" Agent Blackbird started to say.
"If Gemini and the Seniors really are trying to find Miss Rockwaller, then no one else can be allowed to know about her location or the cryo freezer tube we sealed her in," Dr. Director said in a serious tone. "Otherwise, it would make them a target. Not even Team Possible can know about it. It's for their own good."
Agent Blackbird nodded, "If you say so, Ma'am."
"That being said," Dr. Director spoke. "I'll need you to go to Antarctica to make sure our secret storage facility there hasn't been tampered with or broken into."
"Of course, Dr. Director," Agent Blackbird agreed before walking away.
Dr. Director sighed and thought, "If Miss Rockwaller is found and freed, we'll all be in great danger. I can't let that happen."
Dr. Director was unaware that just around the corner, she was being watched by a small black bug with a robotic eye.
At the WEE facility control room, Gemini and the other agents in the room were listening in to everything Dr. Director and Agent Blackbird had said.
Gemini smirked triumphantly. His sister was completely unaware that she had just told Gemini and his men everything they needed to know.
"Oh, Betty," Gemini said triumphantly. "You have no idea of the information you so generously just divulged."
He snickered. It wouldn't be long now until Bonnie Rockwaller would be found and freed.
