On Today's Episode: The spies make their way to Helga and Sunny's offshore secret lair, which, quite fittingly, resembles a manufacturing plant for their "killer swimwear". As the spies explore the lair hoping to shut this operation down before more swimmers are caught up in this, can they also find the baddies and take them down before the summer is kaput, in more ways than one?
Act 2: Sea Shell Shenanigans
6:32 P.M. – Helga and Sunny's Secret Lair
"Whew, that was a trip," Alex admitted when the spies all resurfaced right outside the entrance to Helga and Sunny's lair. "It's been a while since we had to bust out the UPWATIs."
"My question is, what the hell is this place?" Bridget wondered as she looked at the lair itself. "Who the heck needs this big of a secret lair?!"
"I'm willing to bet this has something to do with the 'killer swimwear' they've been making," Nick quipped.
"Correct, Nick," RiCO responded. "I can see multiple manufacturing machines inside of that place. This must be where they made all of that swimwear."
"Well, then, I think it's time to get in there and shut this place down!" Melissa proclaimed.
The spies deactivated their UPWATIs and made their way inside the lair, and sure enough, they were right on the money, with most of the inside resembling a manufacturing plant.
"Why am I getting some nightmarish déjà vu of the 'processing plant' behind Galaxy Toys?" Dawn quipped.
"Yeah, it's very similar in looks, honestly," Melissa responded. "But right now, let's focus on finding our resident baddies."
As the spies turned another corner, May noticed something odd on the nearby conveyor belt.
Most of the belts they'd seen so far had been carrying fabric and other assorted materials, no doubt to make the "killer swimwear", but this belt in particular had something else on it.
May took a step closer so she could analyze the object in question, that resembled a compact power generator.
"Um, yeah, that seriously sticks out like a sore thumb," May quipped.
"What else are those two nutballs building here?" Mat wondered.
"I guess we'll find out soon enough," Sortiliena stated.
"Let's just hope we can stop them before unleashing a trump card," Nick told the others.
"Tell me about it," Mat replied.
"Is this material for corsets or something?" Blaine wondered.
"It could be," Melissa deduced.
"Well, we better shut them down quickly," Sortiliena replied.
The spies were immediately interrupted via a sneak attack from Helga's trusty henchman Troad.
"I was thinking you were also on board, too," Mat deduced after they all jumped away.
"So typical you meddlesome spies would come to stop us, too!" Troad growled.
"Don't even think for two seconds that the win's immediately going to you!" Sam proclaimed.
"Totally!" Alex added. "You all have PhDs in fashion disasters, and then some!"
"Selling bathing suits that aren't made for the water is a major low blow!" Clover remarked. "They're mandatory for summertime because what's a summer without a beach or pool, and cute swimsuits, for that matter?!"
"Oh, I wouldn't say so," Troad sneered. "You should've gotten 'em when you had the chance!"
"We're not swimsuit shopping anytime soon," Sam replied with a smirk.
"Finding out what is causing all those rescues was easier than I thought, personally," Clover commented.
"I guess this would explain why we've yet to lose someone we're really going after then," Helga sneered as she and Sunny Day finally came into view.
"Ah-ha, the rats came out of the sewers!" Sortiliena exclaimed.
"You better consider yourselves fashion rejects after this one!" Clover growled.
"On the contrary, we'll be fashion moguls with no way that our customers will get their refunds," Helga sneered.
"But once we're rid of you meddlesome wretches, nothing will stand in our way..." Sunny Day added.
That was when Sam thought back to when Helga von Guggen had her line of fashionable clothes that people couldn't take off and got tighter and tighter on people. (A/N: Think S2's Fashion Faux Pas.)
Maybe that might work here... Sam thought to herself.
Mat caught what Sam was doing out of the corner of his eye, and Sam motioned for Mat to be quiet so she could take to the sky via her Jet Pack Backpack to test her theory.
"You've got a lot of nerve trying to deprive people of their summertime!" Blaine proclaimed.
"You mean make a lot of green, don't you..." Troad sneered.
"Then I guess you force us to settle it the hard way like usual..." Melissa groaned.
"Yeah, with lumps!" Bridget proclaimed, transforming back into Sonic Mode and blitzing forward to bowl both villains over, then changing course and kicking Troad into the nearby wall.
Troad quickly peeled himself out of the wall and attempted to pounce on Bridget as she came back for another strike, only for Nick to blast him backwards with a Final Shine Attack.
"Nice try, guy," Nick quipped as Bridget sped by and high-fived him.
Eventually, Nozomi realized Sam wasn't among the spy team.
"Where's Sam when you need her?!" Alex exclaimed.
In the meantime, Sam was already airborne testing her theory by using the fire sprinkler system on the defective swimwear.
"She's up there!" Nick gasped when he looked to his left.
Sam had already thrown a defective pair of board shorts onto Troad, then she activated the fire sprinklers.
"Sorry, guys, just testing a theory..." Sam quipped.
A few seconds passed by and nothing seemed to happen, and this made Sam smile brightly, her theory confirmed.
"I knew it!" Sam laughed. "Everyone, hot water is the key! It must mess up whatever they weaved into the swimwear!"
"Well, then, I think I know what needs to be done," May chuckled, activating her Emergency Gadget Transporter to summon an Ultra High Pressure Water Cannon before aiming it towards a nearby conveyor belt full of defective swimwear.
"You wouldn't dare," Helga growled.
"Oh, watch me," May retorted, firing her Water Cannon and drenching the conveyor belt with a spray of scalding hot water before blasting Helga with it, who just barely dodged the blast.
However, this left her wide open when Sortiliena came rushing in to nail her across the head with a flying kick.
Helga quickly recovered before jumping into the air and revealing another pair of wings from her latest outfit, using them to soar over the spies and attack the nearby Sam.
"Um, yeah, how about you don't?" Nick taunted, raising his hand to snatch Helga in his psychic hold and toss her back into Sunny.
"You know this isn't the only manufacturing belt in this facility, right?" Sunny taunted. "We have far more than just this."
"I'm sure that some of our wares have already found their way into stores since then, so good luck with that one, you little punks," Helga cackled as she and Sunny retreated.
"Why, that little..." Dawn growled.
"Jerry?" Sam asked, flipping open her X-Powder.
"We're already on it, Sam," Jerry responded. "We're sending out an alert to any store that received this swimwear to wash it with hot water first."
"And I'm using my drone to keep an eye out and make sure no one else is getting dragged down by this stuff," RiCO answered. "I promise I'll ring you up if you're needed. Just go and catch those ne'er-do-wells!"
Sam nodded before leading the spies down the hallway that Helga and Sunny had escaped through.
"Any sign of more manufacturing belts?" Alex wondered. "Because they said there was more than one in here..."
Alex opened up her X-Powder just in time for RiCO to display a map of the facility and the shortest route to the next manufacturing belt.
"Once again, RiCO, you rock," Britney chuckled.
"Just doin' my part for the team," RiCO giggled.
"Hey, is iCO doing all right? I just noticed that we haven't really seen her in a while," May wondered.
"She's usually patrolling the Datascape while I'm on official mission duty, just to make sure nothing slips by our defenses," RiCO answered. "She's also taking some time to upgrade our firewalls as well, considering what happened when Lady Dragon trapped you guys in there."
"Yeah, I still can't believe we were in the Datascape that whole time," Haruka chuckled. "That was pretty nuts."
As the group continued exploring the facility, Haruka decided to try her matchmaker plan again, still completely unaware that Nick and Bridget were onto her.
"You two really had some nice combos going on back there, didn't you?" Haruka quipped. "Where'd you think them up?"
"Well, honestly, as much as Nick and I love using the Purple Comet Attack, we do have to think up new combos so it doesn't get stale," Bridget admitted.
"Yeah, and that's one of the things I really love about my psychic powers," Nick stated. "I can be as versatile as I want with them, really."
"Sounds like you two make quite the team, eh?" Haruka giggled.
As Haruka turned back to the path, Nick and Bridget secretly winked to each other, already forming an idea for their revenge once this caper was over.
Eventually, the spies all came across another conveyor belt full of swimwear. "How about this one, RiCO?" Nick asked.
"Yup, these ones have that gravity-altering fabric in them, too," RiCO answered.
This time, Alex was the one to use the Ultra High Pressure Water Cannon on the conveyor belt, neutralizing the gravity-altering fabric and leaving it as just normal swimwear.
"That's this one fixed," May chuckled. "Next!"
Just then, footsteps caught the spies' attention, and they all turned around just in time to see Troad lunge out of the shadows straight for them.
Bridget did the honors of charging forward to punch Troad in the stomach and send him flying over the conveyor belt while Nick stepped forward to destroy the machine with a Final Shine Attack.
"Nice try, mook boy," Nick taunted.
"What did you call me, you little brat?" Troad growled as he picked himself up.
"I called you what you really are, a mook," Nick retorted. "Don't shoot the messenger for telling the truth."
"All right, now you're making me mad," Troad proclaimed. "You're all going to get it!"
Troad jumped over the destroyed belt and charged to attack both Sam and Mat, only for May to slip in and bean him in the chest with her anchor.
Thankful he had body armor for that now, Troad stumbled a bit before resuming his frenzied attack, hoping to capture at least one of the spies for Helga.
This time it was Melissa and Dawn who countered him by standing their ground and hitting him with a double forward kick.
Deciding that it wasn't worth it for the moment, Troad retreated.
"Serves you right," Alex taunted.
"Let's go after him," Blaine replied. "He'll probably lead us right to Helga and Sunny."
"Let's hope so," Mat remarked.
"He's done like dinner, guys," Bridget proclaimed. "Sonic Mode, online!"
Bridget turned up the juice, and the spies managed to catch Troad in a matter of seconds.
"Anybody for bowling?" Haruka quipped.
She managed to tap Troad in the back and caused him rolling forward. Troad had hollered loud enough for Helga and Sunny to come out of hiding and be bowled over.
"STRIKE!" Sam and Clover exclaimed.
"Now, do we have to force out where your other warehouses are making these sappy swimsuits?!" Alex proclaimed.
"Try all you want, but we'll never tell..." Sunny sneered.
"Well, we don't need to worry about that when we have our ways of finding them," May quipped.
Britney then used the Net Throwing Extendable Rod Mascara to trap the three villains.
The spies were immediately cornered by Helga's other henchmen before they could even take one step outside.
"Why did I figure that was gonna happen?" Nick groaned.
Sam immediately used her Expandable Cable Bungee Belt to lasso it around one of the pipes up above.
"I'm up for a little bowling myself," Sam quipped as she used her Jetpack Backpack to go through the group of henchmen like a cannon that was fired.
She then came to a stop where nearly all of the henchmen were down on the floor.
"Good move, Sammy," Clover cheered.
"I think it's about time we got in the action, too, guys," Mat remarked as the henchmen got back to their feet.
May rushed in to scatter the henchmen with an overhead swing of her anchor, making them easy pickings for the rest of the spies.
Two mooks tried to jump and dogpile Dawn, but she'd clearly had enough of that after the previous mission, and roundhouse kicked one of the mooks away before power-slamming the other into the ground.
Nozomi ducked under a mook as he tried to kick her, then responded by snap-kicking him into the air. Bridget finished the job by blitzing through him as he fell and sending him tumbling.
"That did it!" Dawn exclaimed.
"We better get out of here and lock on to their alternate location!" Bridget remarked.
With that, they all ran past the downed henchmen and to a safe spot in the secret lair.
"RiCO, we need a lock on where Sunny and Helga have other warehouses with their faulty swimsuits!" Sam exclaimed after calling RiCO on her X-Powder.
"I found one back in Beverly Hills," RiCO responded. "It's right outside The Groove, in their own warehouse area."
"Because of course it is!" Clover shouted.
"Looks like our work is way far from over," Bridget groaned.
The spies were shocked at a sneak attack and saw that Sunny, Helga, and Troad had been freed and were trying to apprehend the spies again.
"How'd that happen?!" Clover chastised.
"Never mind that," Nick replied. "I wanna get back to summertime fun... as do we all!"
"And allow me to deliver the first blow here," Sortiliena added. "And by the way, Nozomi, I don't want to go the way of a beach lifeguard myself since you'd said that prior."
"Yeah, I think combat instructor suits you just fine," Nozomi chuckled.
Before Helga or Sunny could react, Sortiliena ran forward, leapfrogging off of Nozomi's shoulders so she could pounce on the two villains with a downward snap kick, knocking them both away from each other.
"Nice shot!" Alex laughed.
"How about you stop chatting among yourselves and let us capture you, for crying out loud?!" Sunny exclaimed, doing forward cartwheels to gain some momentum and hopefully outspeed the spies.
Naturally, it was a futile effort with Bridget around, as she charged forward to knock Sunny back with a (rather hilarious) running slap attack to the face.
"You know you can't outspeed the track star, lady," Bridget taunted.
"You spies are really starting to annoy us," Helga proclaimed, switching to a wolf-like outfit, complete with razor-sharp claws adorning the gloves. "So how about you do us all a favor and go quietly to your death?!"
Helga rushed forward, swiping at the spies with her claws and forcing them to stay on the defensive.
"Um, how about 'no thank you'?" Sortiliena quipped, backflipping over Helga (even doing a silly pose as she jumped just to style on Helga) before landing, grabbing both Helga and Sunny by the shoulders and slamming them both into each other. "We're still young, and we still have annoyingly long lives to life, thank you very much."
"You show 'em, Liena!" May shouted.
"You guys, if there is another warehouse making this swim stuff, then how are we going to handle it?" Melissa asked.
"I say we split into the same teams we did before," Sam proclaimed. "That way, we have all of our bases covered."
Nick nodded and used his psychic powers to wrench a series of pipes and metal objects from the ceiling, then smash them into the ground in front of Helga and Sunny to allow team A (once again Sam, Clover, Mat, Blaine, Britney, Melissa and Dawn) to retrace their steps out of the lair, where a Skyskimmer was already waiting for them.
This left Nick, Alex, May, Nozomi, Haruka, Bridget and Sortiliena to continue battling with Helga and Sunny.
"Oh, what, did your friends abandon you?" Sunny taunted.
"The seven of us are more than enough to kick your sorry butts," Nozomi retorted.
"How about we demonstrate that for you?" Haruka stated.
"Oh, bring it," Troad stated, rushing forward and jumping into the air, only for Alex to send him flying backwards with a blast from her Sonic Disintegrator Boombox, going flying right into Helga.
"Get off of me and start hitting them!" Helga shouted.
"Well, isn't that just too bad," Bridget laughed as she rushed back in to start running in circles around all three baddies, generating kinetic energy as she did so.
After enough running, signaled by her Sonic Mode suit beginning to glow brightly, Bridget skidded to a stop in front of Helga and Sunny, who attempted to move towards a nearby manufacturing belt. Bridget simply chuckled and snapped her fingers, expelling her gathered kinetic energy in the form of a shockwave of emerald electricity that blew Helga, Sunny and Troad backwards and short-circuited the belt, causing it to fall apart.
"Keep running your mouths," Bridget taunted. "See what we do next."
"Ooh, don't think this is over, you brats," Sunny growled.
"We have... let's say, 'things' to attend to right now, things that require our attention," Helga stated. "And when they're ready... you won't be a problem any longer, let's just put it that way.
With their piece said, Helga, Sunny and Troad retreated down the nearby tunnelway.
"Yeah, like we haven't heard that phrase more times than humanly countable," May sighed.
"They haven't gotten far, thankfully," Nick stated after using his psychic radar to sweep the nearby area. "Let's mosey, everybody."
"Honestly, Bridget, I really liked that supersonic slap," Haruka admitted. "Talk about a funny way to weaponize the bitchslap."
"Really, it just came to me," Bridget chuckled as the seven spies all set off to pursue the villains.
8:17 P.M. – The Groove
Warehouse Area
"Is this the one?" Melissa wondered once they'd approached the warehouse. "Please tell me we got it on the first try and we don't have to search every stinkin' single one of these warehouses..."
"Don't worry, Melissa, you guys got it on the first try," RiCO replied after scanning the warehouse. "Go nuts."
Dawn did the honors of opening the door so the team could head inside and find the machines making the killer swimwear.
"I'd be ready if I were you, everyone," Sam stated. "Knowing Helga, she likely put some mooks here to keep us on our toes."
Almost as if something had been waiting for Sam to say that, a bunch of Helga's henchmen emerged from behind the conveyor belt and started advancing on the seven spies.
"...sometimes, I really hate being right," Sam sighed.
"Don't worry, honey, we can take these guys," Mat proclaimed. "They're just mooks, after all."
"We've never let a party of mooks stop us before," Clover stated. "And I, for one, am not about to let that streak be broken!"
"Truer words, Clover," Britney quipped. "Now let's take 'em out."
"Gladly," Clover emphasized. "And with summertime on us, this is a mission that as a fashion lover that can break your heart!"
Clover drew first blood with spraying the Tornado in a Can of Hair Spray at the party of mooks.
"Good move, Clover," Dawn quipped.
"Yeah, and I'm going to second what you said," Melissa replied. "Taking away a must from summertime is a major red flag in my book, too!"
"No doubt about it," Sam quipped.
Once the mooks fell to the floor in a pile, they were dizzy as ever.
"Was that easier than we thought?" Mat wondered.
"Let's not go that route," Sam quipped.
The spies took to the air to stop the production of the faulty swimwear line.
"Great, any thoughts on how to stop this thing?" Dawn wondered.
"When in doubt... shoot it out," Sam quipped, getting her Laser Lipstick out.
"And when the warehouse is abandoned, damages are totally moot," Clover added.
Sam, Clover, and Melissa all used their Laser Lipsticks to short-circuit the control panel and make the line stop.
"If only things were this easy," Melissa commented.
Just as she said that, some more mooks came to stop the spies, but Mat and the others were ready for their appearances.
"I figured they wouldn't go down quickly," Mat stated.
"No matter, the outcome will be the same," Dawn quipped.
"Oh, we'll see about that," one of the mooks laughed as he jumped over the conveyor belt to pounce on top of Sam, only for Mat to kick him in the chest and send him flying back over the belt.
"Nice one," Sam giggled.
"Nick taught me that one," Mat chuckled.
Clover and Blaine stood side-by-side as more mooks approached them, and when they all jumped towards them at once, Clover and Blaine spun around, kicking each mook away until they were all flat on their back.
Melissa and Dawn continued the mook-kicking action by once again utilizing their favorite combo of a Helicopter Hand Fan and a Cyclone Blast Hairdryer to fly around the warehouse and blast down mooks while occasionally firing a blast to wreck the conveyor.
"Still not tired of this?" Melissa teased.
"Still not tired of this," Dawn giggled.
Even Britney got in on the action, flipping over another pair of mooks and soccer-kicking them into the nearby wall.
With that, the mooks wound up back on the ground once again.
"We're in no mood for a round three!" Sam exclaimed, having just finished sabotaging the control panel.
The spies all made a break for the exit. They managed to make it there cleanly... only to be cornered by several more mooks that showed up.
"Uh-oh..." Mat groaned.
"We're not gonna let a bunch of these scrubs stand in our way!" Clover proclaimed.
"Totally! Everyone, scatter!" Sam added.
With that, all of "Spy Team A" made some moves, essentially making it past the group of mooks whether between their legs or high above their heads. To ensure that they wouldn't be caught, Sam sprayed some of the Ice Queen Perfume at the ground so that the mooks all slipped and fell.
"Sammy, what do we do now?" Clover wondered.
"We should try make a break for another warehouse or perhaps find Nick and the others," Sam answered.
"My guess would be Nick and the others might be a better option," Blaine commented.
"Are there any more of these conveyor things around here, RiCO?" Sam asked.
"Nope, you're all clear," RiCO answered. "That was the only warehouse that had a manufacturing machine in it. I kinda get the feeling they wanted to build more of those machines before you all caught onto their schemes."
"Yeah, that's the vibe I'm getting, too," Melissa replied. "But as long as there's no more machines to mash, I say we head back to Helga's lair on the lickety-split, because I shudder to think what mad designs those three have under their sleeves..."
"It's probably some kind of super-machine or a giant robot," Dawn quipped. "That's how things tend to go with our baddies lately."
"Why is it always a giant robot lately?" Clover wondered.
"They're probably adapting," Britney replied. "Since Nick has psychic powers that can easily make mincemeat out of standard machines, I guess our rogues' gallery decided they needed to go bigger in order to defeat us."
"Ah, so they're learning," Blaine sighed. "Have I mentioned that I hate when that happens?"
"May says it all the time," Mat chuckled as a Skyskimmer parked just outside the warehouse.
8:56 P.M. – Helga and Sunny's Secret Lair
"Is it me, or is it getting creepier the further we move through this place?" Alex wondered. "Because I don't like creepy, honestly."
Nick used his psychic radar to scan the area for any potential ambushes. "Nothing's nearby, thankfully," Nick quipped. "So at least there's that."
"Are there any other manufacturing machines in this place, RiCO?" Haruka asked.
"There should be at least one more about three minutes to the southwest of you guys," RiCO answered. "Sam and her team already took care of the one that was in the warehouse, so they should be on their way back to you guys as we speak."
"Sounds like it won't be much longer before we can start kicking all of the butts," Nozomi quipped.
"Hey, I see the machine!" Bridget proclaimed, pointing to just ahead.
"Allow me to do the honors, then," May responded, walking up to the machine and using her Ultra High Pressure Water Cannon to spray all of the swimwear on the conveyor belt before switching to her anchor to smash both the control panel and the main manufacturing parts. "Ah, that was fun."
"Um, girls? I think I found something interesting over here," Nick stated, catching the spies' attention as they followed Nick's gaze to another computer screen nearby. It wasn't connected to any manufacturing machines, but it was displaying a set of blueprints for something called a "Hydrodisplacer".
"Dare I ask what that monstrosity is?" Alex asked.
"Methinks it might be their trump card," May noted. "It doesn't look like a giant robot at first glance, but I've learned to never take anything our villains do at face value anymore."
"Let's keep moving, then," Nick responded. "I've got a feeling we're getting close to the end of this."
"You'd better not get there without us!"
The spies all turned around just in time to see Sam's team dashing their way.
"I take it things went well at the warehouse?" Sortiliena asked.
"Yup," Melissa replied. "We had to deal with some mooks, but nothing we couldn't handle."
"We smashed up the machine making the swimwear, and now we're back here to help you all lay the smackdown on whatever those two are planning," Dawn quipped.
"All right-y then, let's move!" Sortiliena proclaimed.
The fourteen spies exited the room they were in, following the different computer screens, each one talking about this "Hydrodisplacer", until they found themselves in a large, circular room.
"And let me guess, here come the villains?" May taunted.
Right on cue, Helga and Sunny appeared from the shadows on the opposite end of the room, Helga wearing a strange new outfit that almost resembled a cross between a scuba diver and a mech suit.
("I Believe" by Lyn Inaizumi plays)
"Okay, where did you regurgitate that disaster from, Mindy's closet of terror?" Clover taunted.
"Oh, we'll see how long you'll be running your mouth when we're done," Helga laughed.
"I don't see your guinea pig with you," Bridget stated.
"Oh, Troad's making sure our secret weapon's ready to go," Sunny quipped. "It won't be much longer until you get to see the Hydrodisplacer in all of its glory."
"That is... if you even survive that long!" Helga laughed as she jumped forward, her suit unleashing a small wave of water that allowed her to surf on it towards the spies.
The spies all scattered in different directions to avoid Helga, but she simply changed course, rather quickly at that, and surfed towards Sam.
"Oh, you can forget it!" Mat shouted, aiming a bottle of Ice King Cologne and firing it to freeze Helga's wave underneath her, causing her to go sliding right into the nearby wall, the ice shattering on contact.
"Who said we were done?" Helga cackled as she jumped back to her feet and clapped her hands together, creating a large bubble of water around herself. "Try getting through to me now."
"You know, I'm glad you offered," Bridget taunted. "Sonic Mode, online!"
Once the light of her transformation had faded, Bridget was already on the move, running circles around Helga to build up kinetic energy while May rushed to attack Sunny and keep her away from Bridget.
Sunny backflipped away from May, since she hadn't had time to don her own body armor, and thus desired to stay as far away from the business end of that anchor as she could.
"Oh, come on, stop being a chicken, would you?!" May shouted.
"Make me!" Sunny taunted.
"Well, if you insist," Alex chuckled as she sprayed her Ice Queen Perfume on the floor underneath Sunny as she landed, causing her to slip and fall on her back. Melissa and Dawn took advantage of this by firing Cyclone Blast Hairdryer shots to keep Sunny on the move.
"You know your pointless running can't actually get me in this bubble, right?" Helga laughed.
Bridget skidded to a stop, her Sonic Mode suit glowing brightly.
"What does water conduct rather easily?" Bridget retorted.
By the time Helga realized what Bridget meant, she only had time to curse her own carelessness as Bridget snapped her fingers, expelling her gathered kinetic energy in the form of an electric shockwave that struck the water bubble, shocking Helga for a few seconds and causing the water bubble to dissipate.
"You're up, Nick!" Bridget proclaimed.
"With pleasure," Nick responded as he flew forward while Helga was stunned from Bridget's attack. Nick formed a psychic blade on his right hand and used it to slash Helga's suit three times, causing the mech suit part of the outfit to fall off in neatly-cut pieces, leaving Helga in just the scuba suit.
Helga retaliated by swinging her hand out to drench Nick with a blast of water.
"And that was supposed to do what?" Nick taunted.
"...what does water conduct?" Helga retorted, mocking Bridget's earlier words as she brought out an electric ray gun and fired at Nick.
Thankfully, Bridget had already dashed over to pull Nick away from the shot just in time.
"Oof, that was too close," Nick quipped. "I did not want to be a fried turkey. Thanks for the save, Bridget."
"Always happy to help," Bridget giggled. "You know what time it is, right?"
"Oh, heck yes I do," Nick responded, taking Bridget's hand so she could charge forward and use her super speed to toss Nick towards Helga, allowing him to kick her in the chest before flipping back into the air and firing a Final Shine Attack into Sunny, sending both villains crashing to the ground.
"We're not done with you yet!" Sunny taunted as she and Helga retreated down a secret tunnel, no doubt heading towards the Hydrodisplacer.
"Oh, but you will be soon," Bridget taunted as the fourteen spies all headed off in pursuit of Helga and Sunny.
To be concluded...
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Next time...
Sortiliena: Why don't you ladies just give it up already? There's clearly nowhere left for you to run!
Alex: Oh my holy crapbaskets, what the heck is that?!
Helga: I take it you're surprised, spies?
Sunny: Say hello to our ultimate weapon, the Hydrodisplacer!
May: I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I'm just glad it's not another giant robot.
Helga: We wanted something a little more... let's say, "elegant" than a giant robot this time.
Sunny: As for what it can do... well, how about we show you?
Nick: Oh, we'd be happy to dismantle your precious machine, next time on the final act of Totally Spies: Sink or Swim, "Drain Damage"!
May: ...
Sortiliena: Um, May, why are you giving the scriptwriter an angry glare?
May: He knows why.
