Kevin is getting tired of his not-so-honorable reputation as the "minivan kid" at school, so when the school is looking for a new homecoming king and queen for the night's disco-themed homecoming dance, Kevin sees a chance to rebrand himself, and plans to attend it. That same night, however, The Destructress and [=FistPuncher=] escape prison, and plan to crash that very same homecoming dance to announce their return.
