Since all the MI9 agents were monkeying around, Tom and Alex had to run to Bobby Bleaches' factory. When they were near, Alex gave up running, and the pair just walked the rest of the way. As they approached the tall white building, they came across a keypad. Alex pulled it off the wall so she could see the wiring underneath.

"Easy", Alex scoffed as she pulled out her spy pod and used it to scan the security pad. She then pressed the numbers that lighted up on the screen, revealing the code which opened the door. Tom held the door open as Alex tried to put the keypad back on the wall.

They walked around the all-white building until they came across the reception desk. When they saw someone at the front desk, they both hid behind a wide-rounded pillar. Tom looked around, thinking of how they could distract the man. Alex whispered something about them pretending to be lost school kids. However, Tom didn't exactly want to talk to the man, so he continued to look at the desk, and that was when he saw a load of congratulations cards and a fan on the desk. Tom smiled as he got out his spy pod and pointed it at the fan, making it blow out strong air, which resulted in all the cards being blown off the desk.

As the man bent down to quickly pick up his card, Tom and Alex rushed past him and went into the room marked with a no-entry sign.

The room was once again filled with bottles of squirt squirt wallop, but the thing that caught the pair's attention the most was the giant plastic bubble with a bed inside that stood in the centre of the room. Tom and Alex exchanged a confused glance; Tom walked over to the bubble and gave it a poke with his finger, Alex raised an eyebrow in amusement.

"Were you hoping for a secret door to unlock?" She asked as she walked over to Tom. The boy said nothing and just gave her a look. Alex then took the germ specs out of her pocket and put them on.

She looked around the room and saw that there were no germs at all, that was until she looked down at the floor and saw footprints leading out of the room.

"Huh"

"What's wrong"

"The only germs are the footprints on the floor", Alex said as she began to follow them into the next room, with Tom following her. She opened the double doors before quickly grabbing Tom by the hand and running over to hide behind another pillar as she saw some workers walking around. Luckily for them, the workers went to leave, and they came out of hiding, Alex continued to look at the floor, following the footprints.

It led them over to a wall of extranium barrels, but the footprints suddenly disappeared. Confused about how this could happened, Alex looked around until she saw a cluster of germs on one of the barrels. She reached her hand out to the label on the barrel and moved it to reveal a hidden button.

Alex looked back at Tom. He gave her a short nod, and she turned to press the button. There was a small rumble of the ground before the walls moved to one side to reveal a hidden room with a machine inside.

As Tom and Alex slowly walked into the room, they could then see that there were people inside. They both held up their spy pods.

"Freeze MI9, you're under arrest," Tom told the two masked men. The two masked men didn't listen and started to make their way over to two teen spies. Tom acted quickly and saw the thermometer on the wall next to them. He rushed to it and made below 0°C air come out of the vents and spray directly onto them, making them literally freeze in place.

"I did say freeze"

"You too, bleach. We know what you're up to," Alex said as she saw him try to move away.

"If that's the case, then you'll know that I can create whatever germ I like, and this next one's going to be a beauty." The man dressed in an all-white suit said as he started typing stuff into the machine.
