[edit] Operation: R.E.P.O.R.T.
[edit] Plot/Synopsis
Each KND operative is telling his/her own version of the hunt for the "goods" and protecting them from the Delightful Children from Down the Lane. Numbuh 1 beings first. The goods are this white box. His story is animated in 3D computer animation (a la Tron). Numbuh 1 goes through this really difficult obstacle course. Once through, he manages to make it to the "goods". Unfortunately, some walls appear around him and start closing in rapidly. He races towards a window and jumps out in the nick of time. He lands next to the goods, and the Delightfuls (we don't see them, just hear their voice) thank him for picking it up for them and take it from him.
Numbuh 2 is reading a newspaper in the park. This story is done in a comic book-like format. He hears Numbuh 1's cry for help and morphs into "Numbuh 2 Guy", a superhero. He meets up with Numbuh 1, who's outside a broken window. He tells Numbuh 2 Guy that "they've got the goods". Numbuh 2 Guy starts babbling some of his cheesy superhero lines (i.e., "I won't allow the bads to have the goods!" and "The good guy always gets the goods!"). Numbuh 1 gets tired of this and shouts at him to get the goods back. Numbuh 2 Guy flies away to try to find the villains. He finds the Delightfuls, who are referred to in this story as the Consortium of Crime. The Delightfuls are all dressed up like different supervillains (i.e., Brainiac and Star Sapphire). He demands the goods, and they open the box. A weird light comes out of it, and it's Numbuh 2 Guy's sole weakness. He knocks it out of their hands, and it goes sailing through the air and falls down. Numbuh 2 Guy says groggily that he did it and passes out.
Now we see Numbuh 3's version, which is in the form of a poorly-drawn cartoon, the kinds of cartoons made with crayons by little children. She finds a box ("the goods"), which she names "Boxie". In her version of the story, Boxie can move and talk. She goes and has a bunch of weird adventures with Boxie while singing this really kiddy song about it. She suddenly meets up with the Delightfuls, who here are the heads of some weird octopus-type monster. She asks them if they want to play, and they say they'd like to "play" with the box she has. Numbuh 3 says, "You mean Boxie, my best friend? The box I promised to be friends with forever and ever?". The Delightfuls say, "Uh, sure, that's right," and Numbuh 3 just says, "Okay!" and gives them the box and they leave. She skips away happily, saying that it was the funnest day ever.
Now we see Numbuh 4's version, in the form of an obvious parody of Dragon Ball Z, with Numbuh 4 as "Numbuh 4-Ku", some kind of Goku-type character (even wearing the same outfit!) and the Delightfuls as a Freeza-type monster with five different heads. They fight, and Numbuh 4-Ku seems to defeat them at first( With an attack paroding the " Kamehameha" attack Goku and other use countless times on Dragon Ball Z, the attack beig "Gum-wad attack"), but not only do the Delightfuls survive, they go to full power, which makes them really big! Numbuh 4-Ku also does some kind of powering up thing, but all it does is make his hair grow REALLY big ("Aw, crud!") (This is paroding the fact that Dragonball Z character's hair grows really long when they power up or transform). The Delightfuls defeat him, but this causes the goods (which he calls the "rectanguloid power charm", parodying a Dragon Ball) to be thrown far away. Numbuh 4-Ku says, defeated, "I have failed. But mark my words: I will not fail again!"
And last but not least, there's Numbuh 5, which is a parody of The Offbeats (a segment of the old Nickelodeon show, KaBlam!). Numbuh 5's version of the chase is full of visual tricks with jazz music playing in the background. Numbuh 5 grabs the goods and the Delightfuls (who, like before, are one being with five heads) give chase. Finally, the Delightfuls yell out that it's their box, and Numbuh 5 says it isn't. The Delightfuls say to open it and see. Numbuh 5 opens it and really loud music with jarring notes plays. Apparently it has anchovies in it. She gives it to the Delightfuls, who then leave.
Now it's back to normal animation and we're at the KND Moonbase. It turns out the whole mission was for Sector V to pick up a pizza (hence the anchovies). Numbuh 86 yells at them for messing up. Then we go to a pizza parlor where the clerk says he has a pizza ready for the KND.
