Detailed summary

Memorable quotes

Narrator: The city of Townsville, where it is a beautiful, sunny day, and there's not a sign of trouble on the--Huh? (crashing) Argh! Argh! (gagged muffling)
Mojo: The city of Townsville, a city that while being a city, is for some inexplicable reason called "Town." And not only is it called a "Town," but also a "Ville," thus making it a city, town, and village, which seems to me to be redundant and repetitive, which can be quite annoying if you ask me, which you have no choice but to do, for now, I, Mojo Jojo, am in charge of... the city of Townsville!


Narrator: So, once again, the days is saved, thanks to... the Powerpuff Girls!
Buttercup: I knew something was missing!
Bubbles: Yep, hee hee hee hee hee.
Blossom: Goodnight, folks.
(long pause)
Buttercup: Now what?
Narrator: Can I, uh, get a lift home?
Powerpuff Girls: Of course!
