The episode begins with Mikey and Donnie putting posters of "Mystical Metal Merchants" in Run of the Mill Pizza, Hidden Library, and the Battle Nexus Hotel while singing in various forms of music. The screen then shifts to a cardboard building.

Raph: Uh... If we're trying to get the last few pieces of the Dark Armor, shouldn't we go out there and search for it?!

Kamala: I must agree with Raph here. This is such a waste of time. We have to get the last few pieces of the Dark Armor before Barron Draxum and the Foot Clan does!

Tsareena: We know... But we should do this more strategic.

Male Meowstic: (scrolling through his phone) Basically, we're gonna wait here for people or yokai to come here and bring their stuff. That way we'll be able to get a piece of the Dark Armor. No work involved.

Leo: Hm... I do like the lazy part.

Raichu: We'll give you some credit on that end.

Leo slips from the chair as a customer appears.

Mikey: See? Our plan is working, Raph.

Kamala: Our first customer. (clears her throat and tries to sound cute) Welcome to the Mystical Metal Merchants! Where we collect and sell metals of the mythical proportions! What brings you here to our fine establishment, sir?!

The man walks to the desk. He then opens the box which reveals a golden fidget spinner. Donnie puts on his goggles but it wasn't the Dark Armor piece.

Donnie: This isn't what we were asking for! Emerald?

Emerald uses Psychic to throw the man and the box away from the shop.

Donnie: Thank you!

Raichu: Looks like your plan is failing~...

Male Meowstic: It will work, Lemon. You just have to trust us. (spots something) And speak of the devil, look what we have here. (points to a creature carrying a box)

Donnie: And that box is giving out major mystic energy!

Kamala: I can sense it as well. That has to be a piece of the Dark Armor!

However, Repo Mantis and Scyther appears inside of the repo car.

Repo Mantis: Hey you! You owe us some money! Scyther, use Quick Attack!

Scyther: Quick Attack! (attacks the creature and grabs the box) I got the box, boss! (flies away with Repo Mantis)

Kamala: Now this is bad.

Leo: And that's why we're in Team Raph the whole time!

Raph: (fist bumps Leo) That's my turtle. Now we should go after them to get the Dark Armor piece.

Tsareena: Hold on, Raphael! You, Nightmare, Lemon and Leo hadn't been to the scrap yard, unlike us. So let us handle this one ourselves.

Male Meowstic: After all, we know Repo Mantis better so we got the expertise in this department.

|Next Day|
|Scrap Yard|

Midnight Lycanroc: We have arrived at the site.

Raph: The plan is we're gonna smash through this scrap yard. Smashing everything in our path until the Dark Armor piece gets right into our smashing hands!

Donnie: Instead of your usual smashing plans, maybe we should do this with strategy.

Tsareena: First, we must know more about Repo Mantis!

Mikey throws down a folder which contains pictures of Repo Mantis and Scyther.

Raichu: Uh...

Male Meowstic: You see, Repo Mantis loves money. (changes into a gentleman look) Obviously he represents greed.

Tsareena: (changes into a lady look) So we're gonna go in there and look for the Dark Armor piece ourselves. While Donnie and Mikey are distracted, me and Emerald will sneak around and look for it.

Raichu: And what about us?!

Male Meowstic: You stay here and monitor through Donnie's monocle to see where the piece is hidden.

Midnight Lycanroc: That's all we have to do?! Are you serious?!

Tsareena: We are. Now ta-ta! (leaves with the others)

Kamala: (sighs) This is gonna be awhile.

Donnie: Sputnik, come on out!

Mikey: You too, Sparky!

Espeon: Espeon!

Jolteon: Jolteon! Whoa, you look so fancy and classy! What's the occasion?

Donnie: We're being rich gentlemen. While distracting the enemies, you two along with Em and Rena are gonna search for the Dark Armor piece.

Jolteon: Okay!

Espeon: Right. We'll do our best. (walks off)

Mikey: And make sure you don't get caught!

Jolteon: We won't!

Male Meowstic: Good luck. (leaves with Rena)

|Repo Mantis|

Repo Mantis: Move it to the left, Bison! Now a little to the right! And don't drop it or I'll have your head!

Bison Almighty: You got it, boss!

Scyther: You got it! We'll be careful!

Donnie: (clears his throat) Why hello there!

Mikey: We are wealthy gentlemen who had come here to purchase a vehicle of sorts.

Kitty: A vehicle?! How much are you willing to pay?!

Repo Mantis: Hold on, Kit. This could be a trap.

Mikey: A trap?! My good sir, this isn't a trap at all! (takes out wads of cash) Maybe this will convince you that this isn't a trap.

Repo's pupils turns into dollar signs.

Repo Mantis: Oh pardon my manners, sirs! Come with me and may I have something for ya'.

Donnie: Right.

|Pokemon|

Espeon: Have you found a piece?

Jolteon: Not yet! (shakes off the dust from his fur) This scrap yard is huge! It would take us forever to find a piece of the Dark Armor!

Male Meowstic: We can't give up now. Finding the Dark Armor is our top priority.

Tsareena: Shouldn't we let Lemon and Nightmare come with us?

Male Meowstic: No way. Most likely those two are gonna smash the whole scrap yard instead of taking things slow and strategic.

Tsareena: You got a point there. Let's continue the search!

|Turtle Tank|

Leo: Ugh... How long is Donnie's plan gonna fail?!

Kamala: Such a waste of time. (walks away) We have to get that piece before you-know-who does. And if Draxum was able to get all the pieces, he's gonna wear the armor and we're all doomed!

Leo: Calm down, Kamala. We won't let that happen.

Raph: Yeah! Nothing to worry about.

|Repo Mantis|

Kitty: You sure you can look at the vehicles yourself?

Donnie: Of course! We know a thing or two about scrap yards!

Repo Mantis: For a couple of scrapyard buyers, you two are alright. But I must warn you. You must never go inside that bus. It's strictly forbidden.

Raichu: You heard that, Nightmare?

Midnight Lycanroc: Sure did. That must be where the piece is.

Donnie: We won't go inside! No need to worry!

Repo: Okay. We'll be right back. (leaves)

Leo: Donnie, what are you doing?! You need to...

Donnie: Uh-uh. I'm not gonna do your plan. (hangs up)

Raichu: That arrogant turtle! We gotta get to that bus!

Raph: When someone tells you you can't go in there, you have to go in there!

Kamala: The piece must be in that area. But how are we gonna get inside?

Leo: Insectica Evolution that's what. We can just turn bug-sized and get inside easily. Nobody won't know it's us.

Kamala: One problem; if you're gonna be bug-sized, it would take you months to get from here to the bus.

Leo: Way ahead of you. (takes out Pokeball) Undertow, help us out!

Raph: Come on out, Pyro!

Vaporeon: Vaporeon!

Flareon: Flareon!

Leo: Lemon?

Raichu: Raight! (runs and opens cabinet) Butterfly necklaces, coming right up! (grabs two butterfly necklaces and throws it at Leo and Raph)

Leo: Let's do this!

Together: Harmonic Evolution along with Insectica Evolution!

They begin to transform into their Insectica Forms after fusing with Lemon and Nightmare respectively. After the transformation sequence, they head straight to the school bus.

Kamala: First, we need to get this bus out of the way.

Raph: Leave that to me! (spits on his hands and rubs it together) Time to lift this baby - (starts lifting) like a boss!

Leo and Kamala: Raph! Raph! Raph!

Screen shifts to Raph being on the ground.

Leo: Raph... Raph... Raph... (sighs) Thunderbolt~!

Raph: (screams) I'm awake! (groans) What happened?

Leo: You passed out from single handedly lift a school bus!

Raph: How far did I go?

Kamala: Not much. Except for the little wiggle on the bars.

Flareon: But your neck was so huge!

Vaporeon: I thought you were gonna make your head explode or something!

Raph: Now what?

Leo: Let me handle this. (shrinks himself) I'm gonna try to get inside through any cracks this school bus has! Undertow, help me out! (jumps on top of Undertow's head)

Vaporeon: Right. (walks to the bus back door)

Leo jumps and climbs up to the window. Using his twin stingers, he cuts through the window in a perfect circle. He jumps inside and lands on the door handle. Returning back to normal size as he opens the door.

Leo: Come aboard the bug bus!

Raph: Why didn't I think of that?!

Kamala: Just get inside and start driving.

Once inside, Raph starts up the bus and starts driving it to the entrance. He stops when they reach the end.

Kamala: What a huge cage...

Leo: Well this puts the "rust" in rusty. (chuckles) Get it?

Kamala: You need to be serious, Leonardo. (summons a small flame) There we go. That should help us see better in the dark.

Vaporeon: What is this place? You sure the Dark Armor piece is in here?

Flareon: It has to be! What else is the reason why he doesn't want us to be here for?! Obviously he's hiding the piece in here!

Vaporeon: But it would take us forever to look through everything.

Flareon: You got a point there... By the time we find it, Repo Mantis and his cronies are gonna find out about the plan.

Vaporeon: Right.

Raph: Hm... (founds button) Maybe this is it. (presses button)

The cage begins to open.

Kamala: Raphael... What did you do?

Raph: Uh... I just pushed this button and...

Kamala: And you just release a creature of monstrous proportions!

Leo: Oh man! This wasn't supposed to happen! Now what?

Vaporeon: Uh... My advice is... we should run!

Flareon: Good idea. Let's scram!

They quickly head back to the bus as a giant mutant cat chases after them. Once they get inside the bus, Raph tries to start the bus.

Kamala: Hurry up!

Raph: I'm trying! I'm trying! (starts bus) Yes! Now hold on tight! (drives backwards while the creature chases after them)

|Donnie and Mikey|

Repo Mantis: With all things settle, we'll be giving you the keys to the whole lot.

Kitty: Hold on, Repokins. We should do something before we give it to them.

Repo Mantis: Oh right! (winks at Kitty and Bison) Wait right here and we'll be right back before we give you the keys! (leaves)

Male Meowstic: Finally he's gone...

Mikey: So any news?

Tsareena: We still can't find the Dark Armor piece.

Espeon: We searched everywhere and it's not here.

Jolteon: But we'll keep on... (hears something and turns) Eh?!

Raph: Everyone, run for your lives!

Donnie: What are you doing here?!

Scyther: Huh? Hey! Is this some kind of scam you're trying to pull here?!

Male Meowstic: We got caught...

Tsareena: The jig is up... We're done for.

Repo Mantis: And you let my cat out too?!

Vaporeon: Wait what? This creature is your cat?

Repo Mantis: Mrs. Nubbins used to be so cuddly until she got mutated into a mantis. Now all she wants to do is eat me!

Donnie (breaking the 4th wall): Fact; Mantises practice cannibalism.

Flareon: We didn't know that!

???: (appearing out of the cave) Why you little... How dare you take the yellow vehicle out of this cave! (runs to them) I shall have your heads and hang it on the walls! (jumps)

Kitty: Oh no you don't! (grabs him)

Leo: Who's this?

Bison: This is Groungratin. He's an employee here.

Groungratin: You may call me Gratin or Bender. I have heard stories about you. All of you. Look what you've done! You let that vile beast out of its cage! Now you shall pay the price with your heads and shells!

Vaporeon: We're so sorry. We were just trying to find a piece of the Dark Armor. We thought it was in there but clearly it wasn't.

Flareon: Do we have to help them?

Jolteon: We don't have much of a choice! We can't leave here without that piece AND we can't let that cat monster eat Repo Mantis.

Espeon: Though he is our enemy we must do the right thing. We need to bring his cat back into that cave before it tries to eat him for real.

Flareon: (sighs) Fine~... But how are we gonna defeat a giant cat monster?! Any ideas about that?! Anything at all?!

Vaporeon: Calm down, Pyro. We'll think of something...

Espeon: And we need to think fast.

Jolteon: Yeah! Let's do this fast! Right,... (notices they disappear) guys? They totally ditched us!

Vaporeon: It's more like they went out to save Repo Mantis from his precious cat.

Kitty: Correct! (chuckles) They already left while you were having a conversation.

Groungratin: Well I hope they fix this mess they have created for themselves. After that, I shall punish them for releasing Mr. Mantis's cat.

Vaporeon: So you're pretty mad about that... It wasn't our intention. We just want the armor piece and we'll be on our way without incident.

Bison: It seems like you always bring trouble wherever you go.

Flareon: It's a habit that we can't break easily! (chuckling to himself) Anyways, we should head our way to them before they get themselves hurt. (runs off with Sputnik, Undertow and Sparky)

Before the cat monster tries to attack Repo Mantis, Leo summons a portal to make the paw go through and hit itself.

Raph: Bug powers activate!

The cat catches Raph and Leo with its mouth.

Donnie: Uh hello? (gets captured along with Mikey, Emerald and Rena)

Espeon: Oh no! They got eaten!

Jolteon: Hey kitty-cat! (the cat turns to them) You better spit them out of your mouth!

Flareon: They're not tuna! They're mutant turtles who can do sweet ninja moves. So you better get them out of your mouth or we'll make you do it!

The cat spits the group into the air.

Kamala: Maybe not like that... I'll go get them. (teleports)

Vaporeon: Oh that's it! Though I'm much more reasonable, (starts glowing) the fact that you did that angers me.

Flareon: (starts glowing) Me too! I'm all fired up!

Espeon: (starts glowing) Then we shall deal with this creature and take it back to that mountain of cars and other things.

Jolteon: (starts glowing) Let's do this! Time to be mystical!

The Eeveelutions transforms into their Mystic Forms.

Scyther: Huh? What the...?

Flareon: Now come and get us, greenie!

In this form, the yellow fur becomes inflamed with dark red flaming aura. The small tuft on his head has more volume very bushy. White flaming patterns appears all over his red fur. Pyro's left eye changes color to bright red.

[ROARING]

The cat starts chasing after the Eeveelutions.

Vaporeon: Watch out for its long tongue! Along with its claws as well.

In this form, the white fins becomes longer and frillier along with changing color to pale blue. The spiky ridges grows longer but sharper like spikes. Dark blue raindrop markings appears under his eyes. The split tail fins becomes wavier that produces different colors from blue to purple. Undertow now wears a blue jewel orb around his neck. His eyes changes color to electric blue.

Espeon: Right. (dodges claw) This is gonna be more difficult. Let's see what I can do. (summons a mirror) A mirror? Of course... I could reflect any attack with it. Perfect.

In this form, the tufts near his ears becomes longer and wavier. A white veil appears on his head and ends at his neck. The red jewel turns into dark purple and sun markings appears on his front and back legs. Light purple clouds appears around his neck. Sputnik's right eye changes color to dark violet.

Flareon: So what's the plan?!

Vaporeon: We need to buy some time until the Turtles arrive! We can handle this ourselves until then.

Flareon: That's the plan?! You crazy!

Vaporeon: It's worth a shot. We need to work together on this. (creates quicksand) Mine is to create quicksands. Awesome!

Flareon: That should slow it down. But for how long?

Jolteon: We need something to block its path! That way it should lead it straight to where it came from!

Espeon: That's a great idea. We can do just that.

Jolteon: See? I can even make some great ideas. Let's do this!

Everyone: Right!

Jolteon: First, we need a WHOLE lot of stuff! And I mean A LOT of it!

Espeon: Uh yeah... But we need to be extra careful not to cause an avalanche of used cars...

Vaporeon: Which is gonna be quite difficult. (dodges) Darn it! It got out of the quicksand!

Flareon: Guess the quicksand wasn't too quick.

Vaporeon: Really?

Flareon: Yes. Yes really.

Espeon: No time for arguments. We have more important things to... (hears something)

The Turtles are now driving a car which is to resemble a mouse. The cat immediately chases after them.

Flareon: That's so cool! (chases after them)

Vaporeon: Quite a unique idea. Let's go.

Espeon and Jolteon: Right!

|Turtles|

Mikey: It's working!

Donnie: We're almost there!

Once they reach the cave, the car turns and the cat monster was able to get inside.

Mikey: Raph, the door!

Raph: Right! Time to lift this bus - (starts lifting) like a bus!

Everyone: Raph! Raph! Raph!

The screen shifts to Raph being on the ground.

Leo: Raph... Raph... Raph... (sighs) Here we go again. Thunderbolt~!

Raph: (screams) I'm up! I'm up! What happened?

Flareon: You passed out again... Have you gotten enough iron? Anyways, while you were passing out, Leo drove the school bus straight to the entrance.

Leo: Big scary kitty is inside!

Groungratin: Nicely done, fellas. You have trapped the vile beast inside its home.

Repo Mantis: Mrs. Nubbins gets cranky when she's hungry. (Mrs. Nubbins roars) I'm gonna feed you, snuggly-wuggly!

Kamala: With that out of the way, you better hand over the box!

Kitty: What box?

Kamala: The one that contains the Dark Armor piece!

Repo Mantis: Oh~ that box... Yeah I actually sold it to these two weird people before you even came here.

Kamala: What?! Foot Brute and Lieutenant already got it?! (groans annoyingly) This was a waste of time! We need to go right now!

Everyone: Right! (leaves)

Kitty: See you later, guys... (chuckles) Now what's inside this briefcase? (sniffs) That's weird. It smells like... (opens briefcase) Tuna fish cans?!

Repo Mantis: Hey! There's no money in here! It's just tuna fish cans!

[BOOM]

Groungratin: Uh-oh...

The episode ends with Repo Mantis and his employees being attacked by Mrs. Nubbins while our heroes walked away from the scrap yard.
