Detailed summary

Memorable quotes

Narrator: The city of Townsville! Man, is it hot. Even here, at the Powerpuff Girls' suburban home. The heat is making Professor Utonium hot under the collar.

Blossom: This oatmeal's too hot!
Bubbles: Too hot!
Buttercup: So, blow on it!
Narrator: And wouldn't you know of all days, today would be the day that Blossom discovers she has a new power: Ice breath! Brrr.


Narrator: Outside? In this heatwave? Oh, the poor little things.


Mayor: Oh, good, Blossom has stopped the giant fireball.
Ms. Bellum: Yes, but now there's a giant ice ball hurtling towards us.
Mayor: Yes, but it's not a giant fireball.


Mayor: Brrr. It's so cold. We could really use a giant fireball about now.


Narrator: Ha ha ha ha. Oh, Blossom. Ice still think you're cool. So, once again, the day is saved, thanks to the Powerpuff Girls! So long, everybody.
