Solo disponible en la temporada
While tracking one of Mister Kyoto’s agents, the three stooges are captured and thrown into a basket. Consequently, they have but one aim: to escape. But the methods differ. Star is in favour of the strong-arm method, of smashing this basket to smithereens! For Anna, the problem is outside, because all around the basket, in the area of the beach where the rubbish washes up (“debris line”), Mister Kyoto’s men are on patrol. She develops a plan: to dig a long tunnel to the deserted beach, the free zone… / Panic stations! The plankton HQ is attacked by a ROBOT, which staggers, and finally collapses in the sand, while continuing to make repetitive movements. Anna and Pulpo discover that it’s a toy robot that works on solar energy, one of Mister Kyoto’s ecological weapons. The machine emits a few sentences, one of which - “It’s getting hotter” - gives Anna the idea of reprogramming it to their benefit. Thus, the Ko-Toy robot becomes the darling of Pulpo and Anna, to the great displeasure of Star, who is convinced that this contraption is a Kyotonic spy intending to infiltrate them like a pearl in an oyster. / The planktonic trio is observing the humans install a big black panel that is absorbing the sun’s heat on the roof of the refreshment bar. Anna discovers a strange wire coming off from this panel… it is in fact a solar panel, which uses the sun’s energy to produce electricity without releasing even the slightest trace of carbon! The hit squad sets off immediately to destroy this abomination.
