After Kevin and Gwen leave, Ben and Julie are now the sole members left of the team after the Plumbers Helpers become full-time Plumbers. But after a run-in with a monstrous Crabdozer, it's discovered that a group of criminals are shaking down human and alien business owners, primarily for tachadite crystals. During the investigation, they meet new plumber Rook Blonco, whom says that he is now part of their team.
Tropes from the Episode include:
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Julie, Ship and the Circus Freaks all appear earlier than in canon.
- Adaptation Expansion: Julie becomes an official member of the team here, whereas she was only a part-time member here.
- Adapted Out: Ben's flashback with Malware is absent.
- Anger Born of Worry: Julie was very upset with Ben after he was almost killed.
- Destructive Savior: Like canon, Ben still accidentally breaks Baumann's store. It is implied that the Plumbers have a habit of breaking his things to.
- For Want Of A Nail: It is established the reason that there is only a chapter and a-half about Ben is because they don't know about his adventures from when he was 10.
- Noodle Incident: Ben's dislike of peacocks comes from a run-in with Dr. Animo when Ben and Gwen were kids.
- Villains Want Mercy: Zombozo begs for mercy after Rath corners him.
