Detailed summary
Memorable quotes
Narrator: The city of Townsville is having quite a lovely Saturday, isn't it? Just look at all the townspeople. What a perfect day for an outing. Ah, you can just smell all the love and togetherness in the air. And here we find our girls sleeping in, anxiously dreaming of their big day with the Professor. Finally, some quality time to spend with their faithful father figure--an opportunity to bond, to grow, to become closer, to establish ties, to learn, to love.
Narrator: Well, it looks like the family that slays together stays together.
Narrator: And so once again, the day is saved thanks to the Powerpuff Girls! Yo, they be chillin' on the girl power trip, y'all. Yo, yo. Peace. I'm out.
