* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Zack, Melissa, Cavendish, Dakota, Doofenschmirtz, and Perry have to figure out a way to get an alien carburetor back into place to get a spaceship moving. Unfortunately, touching it temporarily turns your bones into a jelly-like substance. They all set themselves up in a line and toss it to each other so they only have to touch it a few seconds, with the last one getting attaching it. When they're all lying on the floor waiting for their bones to solidify, Zack realizes that they could have just used tongs to move it without touching it.
