Inside the plane, the Time Force members woke up to find themselves inside the giant wooden crate, shut tight. "Uhhh...where the heck are we?" Margo wondered. "Oxygen content is low," said Antonio. "I suggest we limit our breathing." Then, the sound of a fart broke the silence. "DAH! SHERMAN!" Margo shouted. Then, the Time Force members opened the top of the crate to breathe for air. "Sorry! I get gassy when I fly," said Sherman. "Too sweet, he does!" Margo knew. "We must be on a plane," said Penny. Then, Margo, Antonio, Sherman, and Penny tipped the box over and fell out of it to find darts in their butts.

"What did North Wind do to us?" asked Antonio. "Look! They gave us badges!" Sherman declared. "No, not badges. Tranquilizer darts!" said Margo as the Time Force members took the darts off their butts. "Classified! That lowdown, dirty dog is trying to kick us off the mission!" "He thinks we can't save the humans, because we're just humans," said Penny. "Well humans are our flesh and bones! They're us! And if ANYONE'S going to save us, it's us," said Margo. "But Margo," said Antonio, "we've gotta be five miles up. That pretty much limits our options." "I make my OWN options," said Margo, and she pressed a button to open the plane door, and the Time Force members started taking flight in the sky, five miles high above the ground.

"Brilliant move, Margo! But now, we seem to be OUTSIDE the plane!" said Penny. "Well, kinda got caught up in the moment," boasted Margo. "Well, hindsight's 20/20. Okay, Antonio, your turn to pick up the slack!" "Uhhh..." began Antonio. Then, Sherman asked, "Oh! Why don't we catch THAT plane?" A plane was approaching the Time Force members, and they were freaking out. "AAAAAAHHH!" The Time Force members got their heads onto the windshield of the plane. "Human strike, log it," said a pilot. And he used the windshield wipers to get the Time Force members off the plane's windshield.

"We've got another target at 12:00!" said Antonio. "Good, it's only 11:30," said Margo. "Follow me, guys! We're going in hot!" Sherman got his fists on fire. "Hot! Hot! Hot!" he said. "No one likes a showoff, Sherman," said Margo. "Aim for first class!" cried Penny. The Time Force members landed in the first-class passenger plane just in time, and the passengers on the plane started freaking out. "Antonio, where does this aircraft go?" asked Margo. "From the odd shape of this bagel," Antonio said, "I'd say we're heading for Paris." "France?! Forget it, not with their tax laws," said Margo. "Then I would suggest a midair transfer," replied Antonio. "That's perfect!" agreed Margo.

Sherman was distributing the peanuts to the passengers on the plane, and he said, "We're out of peanuts, Margo!" "Try pretzels, Sherman!" commanded Margo. She bumped into the plane's windshield and said, "Bingo! There's our ride, guys. Can't stay, doll. Adventure is my mistress." The bobblehead doll poked Margo right near one of her eyes, and Margo said, "Agh! Penny, more height!" "Yarrr!" Penny shouted as she grabbed a pilot's ears. Then, the Time Force members had to distribute the pretzels as Sherman was doing. "We're out of pretzels!" cried Sherman. "Yeah, well we're leaving just in time, because these folks are going to freak!" cried Margo. "Deploy flaps!" cried Antonio. The flaps were deployed just in time. "Stay on target!" Margo shouted.

"We're gonna catch it! We're gonna catch it!" Sherman declared, but the flaps were shaken loose. "Antonio! We're not gonna catch it!" he cried out. "Wait a minute," said Antonio. "Where's Margo?" "She's on a box!" answered Penny, pointing. "Time to get creative. Start grabbing boxes, guys!" Margo commanded, and Penny tossed Sherman into a box that contained a parachute. "Oh, Sherman, stop playing with those backpacks. Find something useful." There was a bounce house inside a box, and the Time Force members had to get the inflatable bounce house down to the ground. "Now we're talking. Let's get to work," said Margo. "400 meters! 300 meters!" cried Antonio. "Speak American, Antonio," said Margo. "Sorry, Margo," said Antonio. "218 yards. 109 yards."

Then, the bounce house, fully inflated, landed on the desert dunes, and the Time Force members bounced out of it right away, posing like ninjas. "Okay then, it's clear what we need to do next," said Margo. The Time Force members were bouncing on the bounce house, and Sherman said, "Yeah, baby. That feels right!" After a while of using the bounce house, the Time Force members got out safely right away. Then, they spoke about it.

"Now then," said Margo. "If there is any way we need to take down Dexter..." "Dave," corrected Antonio. "Dave," said Margo, "we need to think of it fast." After the Time Force members reached Dave's next target, New York City, they had no choice but to report to Mr. Peabody inside his penthouse. They did so...easily!
