K.O.
[thinking] They didn't realize Enid's been turned to stone! Why? (gasps) Could it be that I'm the only one that gets her after all? Alright, this is my change to prove that I can be an Enid-getter, and a go-getter! Time to get help, and turn her back to normal.
K.O.
Thanks again for coming, Dendy. I just knew that I could count on you to have some super-smart way to get to the bottom of this!
It is my pleasure, K.O. I will metaphorically leave no stone unturned.
K.O.
(laughs) And literally, too, right?
What? Ooo, oooh, the results are printing. Hmm... Mmm-hmm... Mmm-hm. Well, K.O, it would appear as if your friend has been turned into steatite.
K.O.
Huh?
It is also known as soapstone. It is commonly used by novice sculptors to practice carving techniques because of its relative softness.
K.O.
I know that! I mean, I didn't know what kind of a rock, and that is super interesting, but what I was rally hoping for was to turn her back from rock to person.
Ohhhh... I don't really do... that.
K.O.
Noooo! I can't help her. And no one else thinks they need to help her. How is she ever going to come back?
I don't know anything about Enid's predicament. Or giving emotional counsel. I am sorry K.O. See you at school tomorrow!
K.O.
Rap battle? Are we supposed to punch each other with rhymes?
More or less. Gimme a beat, Enid!
(sighs) Fine. [Puts on her DJ outfit and flips the counter to her DJ set. Plays music.]
Yeah, I can work with that. All right, imposter, get ready, ‘cause this ends here.

Hey! Careful with my gear!
[Picks up mic] Sorry, Enid.
K.O.
Uh, Enid, do you know “Wash Your Hands”?
I’ll see what I can do, K.O.. Knock em dead! [Replaces a disk with a new one. Plays a new song.]
K.O.
Oh, cool. All right, here goes nothin’.
♪Well, I’m Radicles and I’m here to say♪
♪I learned a lot about myself today♪
♪I’m a yoga guy with a yoga mat♪
♪Don’t believe it, ask the kids I babysat♪

♪It’s a good idea to wash your hands♪
K.O.

♪Wash your hands, don’t be a dope♪
[Grabs mic from K.O.] Listen, imposter. I don’t babysit or do yoga, and I definitely don’t like snuggling kittens.
K.O.
I don’t understand. That all seems like cool stuff to me.
But Rad would never find that stuff cool. And even if he did, Rad wouldn’t be ready to share those things about himself. If you really were Rad, you’d know that.
K.O.
Oh. Gah! You got me! All that stuff I rapped about was lies. I was, uh, trying to embarrass you. Yeah. Isn’t that what rapping battles are all about?
I guess. Uh, yeah! Yeah, you’re right!
K.O.
Well, I guess my little plan didn’t work. You’re the real Rad-- [Hands name tag to Rad and puts it on] tough, cool, and totally one-dimensional.
[Record scratches] All right, I’m bored. Everybody out. [Her DJ set turns back to a counter; she changes her outfit and listens to her music.]
K.O.
(groans, sighs) Rad, I'm too small!
Why not try some of this candy? [Throws the candy to K.O.] Just got 'em in. Check out the wrapper. [K.O. catches the candy] It's a little guy turning into a big guy. So they'll probably make you big.
K.O.
Big?
Not that I ever need that junk, though. (chuckles) 'Cause I'm so huge already.
K.O.
I trust you, big friend! [Eats the candy]
K.O.
Whoo! [Picks up the box and places it on the shelf.] Wow, just like that.
I can't believe that actually worked. [Leaves]
K.O.
This is perfect. So maybe I'm not a Gargantuan, but I'm definitely more than Megahugeman. And that's good enough for me. [Looks at the packages of the candy.]
[Reads a magazine and gets startled of K.O.'s growing limbs] Aah!
[On her phone and also gets startled of K.O.'s growing limbs] Aah! Rad, what the heck is going...? K.O.? [K.O. grows to become a giant and eventually damages the roof of the store.] Whoa. I am not cleaning this up.
K.O.; [Waves at Enid] Hi, Enid, I'm big now! [A pteradactyl slams onto his hand.] Whoops! (blows) [Pteradactyl squawks] Sorry!
He may look good, but we won't when Mr. Gar sees his store is destroyed.
Oh, good point. Never mind, K.O. You look like crud!
[Covers Rad's mouth with her hand] K.O., why are you so big?
K.O.
(chuckles) I ate some of this weird candy. [Drops a bunch of candy.] Green ones make you big.
Uh, is there one that can make you small again?
Yeah. I don't know about that. None of these look super-promising.
K.O.
Don't worry, guys. I won't be needing to get small again. That's the old K.O. Now I'm finally what I've wanted to be ever since I was little-- just this morning-- [Stretches his arms and jumps up and damage the roof once more.] Huge!
K.O.
Yeah, maybe working here isn’t the right thing to help you right now.
JCJoe Cuppa
[His work vest disappears with flames] Oh. [Alarm goes off] Huh? What’s going on?!
K.O.
[carries Joe Cuppa] You’re gonna love this! Nothing cheers me up more than beating up bad guys! [Throws him out the window.]
Psst, Joe. Prepare to intimidate.
JCJoe Cuppa
Like this? (chuckles)
Welcome, plazoids! It’s me-- Shannon!
Yeah, we know it’s you, Shannon.
You can’t say welcome! You came here! Plus , you’re not welcome, like, at all. Go away.
[chuckles] I’m welcoming you… [releases her weapons] TO YOUR DEMISE!
JCJoe Cuppa
Whoa! Would you look at the time.
[Holds her blade in front of Joe Cuppa] Hold up! Is this a new addition to your little ensemble? [Stretches her head out] Looks a little… pathetique. [Joe Cuppa whimpers] He fits right in! [transforms into a hammer and smashes the ground.]
EKEnid, K.O., and Rad
Whoa! [Joe Cuppa fell to the ground with coffee spilled.] Joe?!
Hold that pose! [takes pictures] I gotta show H.Q. how hard I am crushing you right now.
JCJoe Cuppa
[sighs] Listen, guys, I’m just your average Joe. I ain’t got powers like you. I’m no hero, that’s for sure.
No powers?! Pfff! [looks into Joe Cuppa’s head.] There’s gotta be something in th-- [finds a mouth and screams] Oh, that’s where your mouth is! That’s super disgusting!
VProfessor Venomous
You had better have a good explanation for this.
FFink
Yeah! Coconut cream?! What were you thinking?!
Professor, I-I— I… Ooooohh! I’ll destroy those brats for ruining dessert!
Oh! Are we destroying brats?
Are having dessert? [A pie is thrown at him] Ugh! [Lord Boxman catches him] Thanks, Dad. [Lord Boxman bends him] Ooh!
[Rips his coat and shirt and puts his tie around his head] And now you’re trapped! [Fires the pies which pelts the gang]
VProfessor Venomous
Boxman!
Oh! Professor, please! I-I can explain! I can explain! I can— I can— Okay, I can’t explain. But this was not the way it was supposed—
VProfessor Venomous
[Covers his mouth] May I?
VProfessor Venomous
Dinner parties are just so… stuffy. [Loads the bazooka] But vanquishing heroes— now, that’s much more exciting!
FFink
[On top of the bazooka] Fire!
FFink
[Laughs] [Falls off] Whoa! Oof!
VProfessor Venomous
I have to be honest, Boxman. I agreed to come tonight with plans to sever our business relationship after dinner.
VProfessor Venomous
You seemed too distracted lately. Though, now I understand why that was. Hard to find folks who value the sport in squashing heroes. And if all your robots can be as fun as this one, then I’ll gladly order 1,000 of them!
You… still… want my robots? You still… [Whimpers] …want me?
Just… Big hug! [Thinking] Oh, Boxy! You really can have it all. [Fink triggers a punching glove to him] Waughhhh!
K.O.
W-What is this?
Would a loser get to travel the open air in a vehicle made of delicious pie? I don’t think so. [Eats the pie]
Rad rocket’s on the roof and ready to roll. [Launches a rocket] Blorp! [Face plants on his camera] Rad rocket’s on the roof--
(laughs harder) [Titlecard appears] [continues laughing as she shows the video to K.O.]
RORad on video
Rad rocket’s on the roof and ready to roll. Blorp!
K.O.
[Drops his broom] Oh, no! Rad, you accidentally forgot to cut out the part where you fall through the roof!
[On the roof] Are you kidding? [levitates off the roof] Whoa! This video is a work of art, K.O.. Every detail is perfect. The setup, the unexpected nature of the fall, the way the rocket launch gets cut off at the end… Mwah! You couldn’t plan something that good.
I got to hand it to you, Rad. I can’t not share this.
See, K.O.? The joke may be on me, but it’s still my joke. [A part of the roof fall on him.] Blorp!
K.O.
Rad!
(laughs) You’re on a roll today.
Please tell me you got that on video.
K.O.
What’s that?!
EElodie
Greetings, Lakewood Plaze! Elodie has arrived!
K.O.
Wow! It’s really Elodie. [gets his Elodie Pow Card out] She goes to POINT Prep Academy. They only allow the best of the best. Gee. I want to apply there someday.
Huh? [slides off the counter and wears a disguise and read a magazine]
EElodie
Thank you. Just passing through my favorite hero shop to sign some autographs!
EElodie
[sees Enid in the photo] (gasps) [Tosses the photo] Enid.
EElodie
Is this what you’ve been up to all this time? Oh, how... quaint. [Crowd grabs her as they chant her name] Well, toodles!
Grrrr! (gags) I’m taking a break. I’ll be out back. [she vanishes and a log with shades takes her place]
K.O.
Rad, do you know what’s going on?
K.O.
Something’s wrong with Enid. Elodie showed up, and she started acting all funny.
Well, there’s only one way to find out. We just got to ask her until she tells us. Trust me, K.O.. Subtlety is my middle name. [enters the break room] Hey, Enid! What’s the deal with you and Elodie?! [Enid smacks him offscreen] Unh! [he crashes into a pile of boxes while a small dinosaur appears]
K.O.
[Thinking] Hmm. Maybe it’d be better to ask Elodie about this.
K.O.
(yawns) Man, it's sure been quiet, huh, guys?
K.O.
Oh, finally, a custom-- aah!
What do you want, Boxman?
[takes her foot back] Explain.
Ahemp. (clears throat) Mi mi mi mi mi miiii. I, uh, Lord Boxman-- me, that is, hereby...vow...to-oo-oo-oo-oo... [High-pitched voice] stop attacking the plaza. [Normal voice] Wooow! [gets ready to leave] That felt great to get that off of my che--
[stops him] Wait a sec! Could you repeat that last part?
D'oh! My bosses say that I can't go a day without attacking you. But! [holds up a countdown clock] Look at that! One minute left!
Oh, come on. It's 'cause you failed so many times, isn't it?
Nooooo-uh! It's just-- It's driving me crazy and my bosses crazy. So there! Pbbt!
K.O.
W-what happens if you did attack us?
Lord Boxman': I get fired and my business shuts down, why?
(sarcastically) Oh, that's so sad. One moment. [The trio gets into a huddle.] If Boxman attacks us, he'll get fired and leave us alone! [They turn back towards him.] Fight me, Buttman!
KOK.O., Rad, and Enid
Robots blow!
K.O.
[hears something on the phone] What's that? The president of the universe says all boxes must be replaced with...
KOK.O., Rad, and Enid
Best friends?! Friendship! Friendship! Friendship! Wow! Yayyyyyyyy! (laughing)
I have better things to do now than to waste time on you piddling fools. (chuckles) So long, clown babies! Boxman out. (howls) [goes outside]
You know, maybe it's for the best. I mean, I don't wanna be the reason that Boxman loses his job.
You're right, Enid. Even someone like him doesn't deserve unemployment, just 'cause he's a weird old man.
K.O.
We are all very thoughtful and kind, even to our enemies.
Bring it in for a big friend hug.
K.O.
Mmm! Yay!
(laughs evilly) You horrible little brats! [tips over a gumball machine] Ha-ha-ha-ha! You know what I hate? [knocks some jars off of a shelf] I-I hate your niceness! He-he. [gets up on the counter and spins around] Ooh, and I hate your friendliness! (chuckles) [Enid gags] I hate you kids! [kicks the store's rug] I hate this bodega! [kicks it again] I hate Lakewood Plaza Turbo! Bwahaha, yes I do! [runs off laughing hysterically]
