The Nightmare Begins

The Irken race, a race of aliens bent on taking over the universe, have implaced Operation Impending Doom 2, an attempt to take over planets in space to use them for their own reasons. While the Almighty Tallest, Red and Purple, are assigning planets, ZIM turns up. Because of almost destroying their home planet, Irk, in Operation Impending Doom 1, ZIM was banished to Foodcourtia. However, he has now 'quit being banished' because he wants to be in Operation Impending Doom 2. The Tallest allow him to go to a mysterious planet, and give him a malfuncting SIR unit, which dubs himself 'GIR'. ZIM leaves, and the Tallest can only hope ZIM will die on the way. 6 months later, ZIM arrives at his 'destination': planet Earth. There he lands, gives he and GIR disguises, a base in the form of a house, and starts his first day at SKOOL. Little does he know, a paranormal investigator in his class, named Dib, has figured him out, and is now hot on his trail.

S01E09

The Wettening

It's a rainy day-- the first one ZIM's encountered here on Earth. ZIM doesn't know what rain is, only that he's terrified of it. Dib taunts him, and ZIM is forced to go outside in the rain if he wants to keep his cover. When he gets wet, though, the water starts boiling his skin, which is more than uncomfortable for the Invader. He takes cover, using Gaz as an umbrella, until the rainstorm is over. Dib is happy, now he knows ZIM's ultimate weakness. He splashes ZIM, sending him screaming to the ground. ZIM isn't going to be put down this easily, though, and sneaks up on Dib, causing him to fall into a puddle. Dib tells him that he will have his revenge. Dib approaches ZIM later with a water balloon, and soaks him. ZIM decides to use this "water-balloon" technology to his advantage. He also notices that some paste he got on himself during class repels the water. During the weekend, Dib and ZIM work on their ultimate water balloon revenge plans. ZIM discovers that coating himself in paste makes him immune to the effects of water. On Monday, Dib uses a homemade automatic water balloon device to shoot a water balloon at ZIM, but finds it's only a hologram. The real ZIM is miles above the Earth, in a massive space station. He uses it to suck up all the water on Earth, and builds an apocalyptic-sized water balloon, which he fires at Dib, flooding the entire city, and proving that you don't mess with the best. He goes down to his lab, but uses the wrong toilet and gets his head stuck.

S01E10

Career Day

The SKOOL children all take tests to see what their future careers will be. Each of the children is paired up with a professional that works in their predestined field, and they go to do some site work. ZIM gets a career in fast food, and Dib gets paranormal research. As he leaves the classroom, Dib sees a rash on ZIM's neck. ZIM is partnered with a teenage employee at McMeaties. ZIM sees the sign that says "8 Billion Served", and realizes that if he can conquer McMeaties, he will rule the world. While Dib and his professional, Bill, are on their way to do some paranormal work, Dib looks through Bill's files. Bill (by source) thinks that dinosaurs, ghosts and Bigfoot are all complete rubbish. Dib learns that the Equinox Theory is a theory in which all aliens off of their home planet when the galaxies are lined up will go through a hideous molt, and Dib understands what the rash on ZIM's neck was. He begs Bill to go to McMeaties, and when Bill refuses, Dib lies and says that Count Cocofang is there at five o'clock, the same time as the molt. Dib and Bill speed over to McMeaties, where ZIM is noticing that he will only have to be promoted four times to be ruler of the world. Dib and Bill arrive, but in the end it turns out that "Count Cocofang" is making a guest appearance next door to McMeaties. Dib and Bill only miss the molt by a few seconds. ZIM is fired for going through his hideous molt.

Battle-Dib

Dib finally gets a chance to present his findings on ZIM to the Swollen Eyeball Net. But before he can attend that night's meeting, he needs a permission slip to be signed by his father. His father, Professor Membrane, is the host of a kids' science show called "Probing the Membrane of Science", and Dib needs to get into the studio so that he can get the slip signed. After a run-in with a security guard, Dib tries to explain that he's Membrane's son, but the guard doesn't care. Dib is forced to get into the show as part of the audience. First, he needs to take a test about science and Professor Membrane's personal life. He passes (with help from Gaz, who's really mad at him for stealing her pizza earlier), and is then placed in a battle arena with a hideously misshapen kid named Shunk Wugga. Shunk and Dib battle, Dib doesn't do a good job, and Gaz just makes it worse. After a few close calls, Dib loses and is removed from the arena. He decides to take drastic measures, and escapes the security guards. He finds Membrane's dressing room, but Membrane doesn't recognize him with the battle-suit on. Dib is caught by the guards and thrown outside, but Membrane finds the permission slip and signs it for Dib. Dib makes it to the meeting, but then realizes he forgot his presentation.

S01E12

A Room with a Moose

ZIM finally decides it's time to take his ultimate revenge on his SKOOLmates... and ESPECIALLY Dib. He organizes a "surprise" class field trip. As Dib boards the bus, however, he knows something's up. After doing some investigating, Dib discovers that the bus driver is just a decoy, and the bus is really being piloted by ZIM back at his home base. ZIM decides to show Dib just how amazing his plan is, seeing as how Dib's one of the few humans who could understand it. The first part of ZIM's revenge involves shooting the class into space. Before Dib's eyes, the bus transforms into a rocketship and flies out of the atmosphere. But that's not all. ZIM opens up a wormhole, which pulls the bus inside. But that's not all. The most terrifying part of ZIM's master revenge plan, he tells Dib, is what lies at the other end of the wormhole: A room... with a MOOSE! Dib is unsure at first whether he's supposed to be frightened or not, but the moose is just so horrible... Dib tries to warn the other kids, but they're all fooled by a projection that they're still on Earth. The kids tease Dib when he tries to convince them of the moose room, and Dib decides it's up to him. He uses his computer to plot out the course of the wormhole-- by a total coincidence, there is a fork: One end leads back to Earth. Dib theorizes that if all the kids move over to the right side of the bus, it'll tilt the bus toward the correct path, but they refuse to sit near him. Dib moves to the left side of the bus. The other kids all move away from him, knocking the bus toward the correct path. They land back at the SKOOL, completely oblivious to what just happened.

S01E13

Hamstergeddon

Miss Bitters announces that by order of the SKOOL board, the class is getting a new pet: a hamster named Peepi. He's the most adorable thing imaginable to all the kids-- except ZIM, of course. ZIM realizes that Peepi's "cuteness" makes the humans weak and vulnerable. Later, he implants an alien device into Peepi. Of course, no one notices it except Dib. Peepi grows to three times his size, and it's not long before he breaks out of his cage. Outside, ZIM tries to control the mutant hamster, but Peepi pays no attention. He continues to grow, and becomes Godzilla-esque after reaching a nuclear power plant. ZIM continues to try to control "Ultra-Peepi", but he doesn't listen. ZIM decides that it's okay, as long as he's destroying the humans. ZIM goes home and relaxes, knowing Ultra-Peepi is doing all the work for him. Meanwhile, Dib tries to inform the army about Ultra-Peepi, that eating causes him to grow. The army soon learns the monster is heading for the city's Pellets Plant, and that leads him right by ZIM's house. ZIM goes out in his Voot Cruiser to stop Ultra-Peepi from destroying his base, but the hamster is too powerful for him. Dib notices the unconscious ZIM, who wakes up and flies off to continue his battle against his hamster, telling Dib that they're working together this time. ZIM lures Ultra-Peepi to an amusement park, where he attempts to attach him to the ferris wheel and launch him into space, but is unsuccessful. ZIM resorts to drastic measures, and just ties Ultra-Peepi up and launches him into space.

Invasion of the Idiot Dog Brain

After having an embarrassing security problem, ZIM decides it's time to fix the security system once and for all. He tells GIR to make sure nothing goes wrong while he replaces the computer's artificial intelligence brain. However, GIR's attention span is no match for his toy squeeky moose, and he plays with that instead. He drops it under the very important data conduit, and when he tries to retrieve it, he gets his head caught in the data stream. ZIM goes down to find out what happened, and finds GIR broken and unresponsive. Now he needs to fix the computer AND GIR. He goes to the elevator, and orders it to bring him to the storage level so he can get another AI brain. But GIR's voice comes out of it and won't let him ride. ZIM realizes that GIR's brain has been transferred into the computer, and orders him to get out, but he says he can't. ZIM orders him to bring him to the equipment room, but GIR tells him he'll only do it if ZIM dances for him. He brings ZIM to the top level, and begins to play with the appliances. He tortures ZIM with old cartoons for a year, and ZIM finally snaps. GIR tells him he needs tacos, and begins to transform the house. It transforms into an enormous dog-like robot, and heads off to the Krazy Taco restaurant. ZIM orders him to go back before he ruins the mission, but he doesn't listen. After a run-in with the police, GIR reaches the Krazy Taco and orders at the drive-in. ZIM takes the tacos and tells GIR he won't give them to him until he puts the house back. GIR decides to cooperate, brings the base back, and finally brings ZIM to the equipment room.

S01E15

Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy

ZIM finishes his work on a spectacular invention, a space-time object-transfer device, designed to replace an object in the past with an object from the present. ZIM intends to destroy Dib at a young age, before he can ever become a threat to his mission. He attempts to replace the three-year-old Dib's tricycle with a hunter-destroyer machine, annihilating him easily, but finds that the massive robot isn't compatible with the temporal field. In a fit of rage, ZIM throws one of GIR's rubber piggies at the robot. It bounces off and flies through the portal. Dib's tricycle is replaced with the rubber piggy, sending him barrelling into a tree. ZIM realizes he can destroy Dib using GIR's rubber piggies. ZIM's sends a piggy to when Dib was six, taking a ride with Membrane's hover helmet. The helmet is replaced with the piggy, causing Dib to plummet down to the Earth. The older Dib finds himself with an artifical breathing machine on his back and tubes through his neck. He tells Gaz he's going on a spying mission at ZIM's house. ZIM strikes again, knocking the crippled Dib off a jungle gym, but goes one step too far when he replaces a paramedic's resusciators with piggies. The paramedic crushes Dib's skeleton in an attempt to revive him, and this causes Professor Membrane in the past to create Dib a new gigantic titanium exoskeleton. Back in the present, Dib breaks into ZIM's house with ease. ZIM frantically sends GIR's piggies through the portal, but this just increases Dib's immense power. Soon, ZIM finds himself with only one piggy left, and is left with no other choice: He sends it back an hour or so, with a message to himself not to use the machine. Except he sets it to swap the piggy with his own brain.

S01E16

Planet Jackers

ZIM is monitoring the other Invaders' progresses (much farther along than his), when the signal is interrupted. He takes a closer look at the staticky signal, and sees something familiar, but can't put his finger on it. Suddenly, a quake erupts beneath them and tears the base apart. ZIM goes out to try to figure out what's interrupting the transmission. He tries to borrow Dib's giant telescope, but Dib chases him out of his house. He decides to see for himself, and takes the Voot Cruiser out to investigate. His worst nightmare is realized when he crashes into a giant sphere encircling the Earth. ZIM tells GIR of the Planet-Jackers, a strange race of aliens. Their homeworld orbits a dying sun, and the Planet-Jackers go out and capture other planets, enclosing them in metal bubbles which project images of normal skies so no one notices. They throw these captured planets into their sun, like firewood to keep it burning longer. And now they have the Earth. ZIM finds the exit portal, and makes it outside the sphere. He finds the main tower, where the Planet-Jackers control the whole operation. He meets the two Planet-Jackers in charge of Earth's capture: a burly guy named Oog-Ah, and his scrawny partner Nik. ZIM tells them that the Earth has already been marked for conquest by the Irken Armada, and the Irken-Planet-Jacker Treaty forbids them from taking it. But Nik tells him the Earth wasn't marked. ZIM tells them to get another planet, but they get rid of him. Then he comes up with a plan-- he starts banging on the main tower. This irritates Ooh-Ah, who goes outside and starts pummelling him. ZIM comes up with a better plan-- he'll distract Oog-Ah, while he sets the Voot Cruiser up to cut through the metal bubble. He and Oog-Ah battle for a while, and while ZIM gets creamed, he succeeds in cutting through the shell and saving the Earth (although losing the Moon, and leaving the Earth stuck orbiting the new sun). Now that ZIM's saved the Earth, he's ready to go destroy it.

S01E17

Rise of the Zitboy

ZIM comes home after a lousy day (he just found out from Dib that there is a flaw with his security system) and GIR tries to cheer him up by rubbing bacon oil all over his face. That gives ZIM a pimple (I know how you feel ZIM). GIR tries to get rid of it by using acne blast but that made it even bigger. To make things worse, GIR draws a face on ZIM's pimple. Amasingly enough, the pimple seems to have hipnotic powers. After all, it did control GIR (is that even possible?). This gives ZIM an idea. The next day, he takes Pustulio (his pimple's name) to SKOOL and uses it to hypnotize all the students. He hypnotizes Dib and forces him to tell what the security flaw in his house is. But then his pimple or Pustulio pops with a big explosion and pus everywhere. But ZIM already has his 411, so I'd say victory is his.

S01E18

Plague of Babies

The Voot Cruiser goes wacky and sends ZIM and GIR hurtling to Earth. They manage to safely land in the house's attic, but ZIM is horrified to see that a human baby saw the whole thing. GIR tries to tell him that it's just a harmless baby, but ZIM doesn't take that risk. He goes over to the baby's house in disguise, and confronts him. He finds that the baby's stink is a powerful defense mechanism, and barely escapes the house. Later, ZIM is busy repairing the Voot in his underground base, and GIR is having fun wiring himself into a power amplifier, which sends out deadly waves of stupidness as a result. ZIM is still nauseated from the encounter, when the doorbell rings. He finds a group of babies in his living room. He tells them to go away, but the babies attack him and tie him up. The head baby, Shnookie, tells ZIM how he is part of an alien race, the Nhar-Gh'ok, who happen to look exactly like human babies. His group was left behind during a mission on Earth and confused with the babies in a maternity ward, forced to live the lives of the babies they replaced. But now they want to take ZIM's Voot Cruiser and go home. ZIM escapes his binds and makes it down to the ship repair room, and tells GIR what happened. The babies finally make it into the repair room, and morph together into a horrible creature, Gigantobaby. ZIM tries not to get killed, and finally comes up with the solution. He wires GIR into the power amplifier and sets it to maximum. The stupid radiation turns the Nhar-Gh'ok back to normal, and makes them about as smart as any Earth baby.

S01E19

Bloaty's Pizza Hog

Dib is ready to undertake his most important mission yet-- tunneling into ZIM's underground base. Just then, Professor Membrane arrives to tell Gaz it's the annual family night out, and she gets to pick where they eat. She picks Bloaty's Pizza Hog. Dib tells her that he'll be home soon, and goes off. Two hours later, Membrane arrives, but Dib still isn't home, and Membrane refuses to have family night without the whole family. Just then, Dib calls in to tell Gaz he's going to try to blow up ZIM's base, but he's interrupted when ZIM attacks him. Gaz is really irritated, and goes to ZIM's house to find him. She pushes Robomom out of the way, and makes GIR take her to Dib. GIR brings her to a teleportation station underground, and Gaz winds up in ZIM's orbiting crescent ship high above the Earth. She makes her way to a room where Dib is being held captive by ZIM. The alien is getting ready to perform some nasty experiments on Dib, and while Gaz would like to see that, she realizes that her dad wouldn't appreciate it if Dib was turned inside-out. She goes to Dib's tank, and ZIM finds it funny that Gaz would try to get Dib out of it. Gaz easily smashes it and lets Dib free. Dib wants to strike now and stop ZIM while he's vulnerable, but Gaz ties him down and forces him to come with her. She finds that ZIM had cut the power on the teleporters, but she tricks him into telling her where the escape pods are, and takes one. ZIM takes off after her. They chase each other through the Earth's atmosphere, but Gaz is victorious. They land in Bloaty's Pizza Hog, and have a nice meal (except for Dib, who is still strapped down). ZIM arrives soon after and tries to destroy Dib once and for all, but is horrified by the Bloaty's character robots and runs away screaming.

S01E20

Bolognius Maximus

One fine lunch period, Dib notices that ZIM doesn't eat human food, and teases him for it. ZIM tries to tell him he's just full, but Dib throws a piece of bologna at him. It immediately fuses to ZIM's skin and sends him screaming in pain. The next day, ZIM still has the bologna on his head, and the other kids all tease him for it. Dib comes in and joins the teasing, but ZIM tells him he'll have his revenge. Dib sits down, and finds a tack on his seat. He tells ZIM how pathetic that was, and doesn't realize what he's in for... The next morning, walking to SKOOL, he finds the local dogs following him. He tries to shoo them away, but one bites his hand. He sucks on his wound, and finds that his hand tastes "delicious!" He makes it to SKOOL late, badly mangled by the dogs. All the kids start complaining that he stinks. Miss Bitters tells him to wash himself in the bathroom. He washes his hand, but finds that he's still delicious. He realizes that ZIM's reponsible. He takes out his computer and tells it to analyze the tack for any unusual foreign substance, and see if it's in his skin sample. The computer confirms this, and after a chemical check, finds that Dib has been infused with bologna DNA. He returns to class, smelling worse than ever, and attacks ZIM, telling him to reverse the infusion, but ZIM says there's no cure and he'll never make it stop, and that Dib should begin ruing the day he messed with him. After SKOOL, Dib's head has ballooned up to be bigger than ever. He congratulates ZIM on what he admits is a pretty good joke, and shakes his hand. But it turns out he was holding the tack, and stuck ZIM with it. Now ZIM has to find a cure, but he says he won't share it with Dib. That night, though, ZIM finds that the reaction is much quicker inside him, and the computer doesn't recognize his vocal commands. He rushes to Dib's house, puffed up into a disgusting bologna creature, and begs Dib to let him use his labs, promising he'll share the cure. Dib and ZIM attempt to come up with a cure, but are unsuccessful. The reaction is worse than ever, and they are both shaped like giant weenies. Dib blames it all on ZIM, and starts chasing him outside. The local dogs all appear, and they both run screaming. They end up trapped in an abandoned house, completely transformed into meat.

Game Slave 2

Gaz sees an advertisement for the Game Slave 2 system, which is going to be on sale at midnight. She gets ready to head off to the mall to get one, but Professor Membrane tells her that she needs to bring Dib with her. Dib makes her wait until Mysterious Mysteries is over. Once Dib and Gaz finally reach the mall, the line for the GS2 is enormous. Gaz is angry, and gets rid of Dib. A psychotic kid named Iggins gets in line behind her, and drives her nuts talking about how he's the greatest gamer of all time. After a long wait, the clerk informs Gaz that they're all sold out-- except for one in reserve for a "Clarence Wong", and that she can have it if he doesn't show up. Iggins tells him that he's Clarence Wong, and takes the GS2 happily. Gaz is just about ready to kill and tells him to give it to her. He refuses and goes home. Gaz follows him to his house. Iggins hides in a closet, but finds that his batteries are running low. He searches around the house for a pair of AAs, but finds that Gaz has taken them all. Gaz tells him to hand the GS2 over, but he still retains that he's a better gamer than her. She flushes the batteries down the toilet. Iggins rushes to the mall to get a pair of batteries, but Gaz is close behind as she takes control of the elevator and won't let him get to the Battery Boot. She sends the elevator into freefall, and Iggins finally surrenders the Game Slave 2. "The rightful order has been restored" for Gaz, and she replaces the batteries and goes off to slaughter some Vampire Piggies. Meanwhile, Iggins is in the elevator as it crashes, and Dib is still lost in the mall...

S02E22

Mysterious Mysteries

Mysterious Mysteries is running out of stories, and ratings are plummeting. The anchor realizes he needs to take drastic measures, and approaches a lost closet of files-- the Dib Archives. Inside is a movie disc, which the anchor watches, and is pleased with what's on it. Dib has finally made it onto his favorite show, Mysterious Mysteries. The show runs the tape-- a very short clip of ZIM and GIR, out of disguise in a forest. But the tape doesn't prove much, and ZIM comes on the show to deny the accusations. In a dramatic re-enactment featuring terrible actors and costumes, ZIM explains how Dib is a bully and faked the video. ZIM also goes on to prove that Dib is crazy, and his classmates agree. The Mysterious Mysteries anchor interviews Gaz next, and she gives a re-enactment of how Dib and ZIM are both amazingly stupid, and dragged her into the whole thing. A "surprise guest" comes on next, a blurred-out face who identifies itself as Stacy, a lady who was hiding in the bushes and saw the whole thing-- but we can easily see it's just GIR. His re-enactment tells of a giant crime-fighting space squirrel who was there at the scene. The anchor's final word: Dib is crazy. GIR: definitely crazy. He feels bad for ZIM, but he's probably crazy, too. But not an alien.

S02E23

Future Dib

Professor Membrane has unveiled his greatest invention since last week: PEG, the Perpetual Energy Generator. If PEG works, she will eliminate the need for fuel. If she malfunctions, she will send out a giant "wave of doom" that will destroy all life on Earth. Of course, this is ZIM's golden oppurtunity, and he jumps on it. Later, Dib finds a kid that looks just like him in his room. The kid claims to be Dib from the future. In the future, ZIM had sabotaged PEG, and it opened up a quick time rip that sent Dib back in time. He tells Dib about ZIM's plan, and Dib goes off to stop ZIM. When Dib reaches the warehouse where ZIM is keeping his sabotage drill, four gnomes appear around him and transform into giant insects that capture him. Turns out that Future Dib is actually DIB2, a robot sent by ZIM to trick Dib. ZIM throws him into a cage with a rabid monkey, and Dib tries to gain control of the robot in order to warn Gaz. Gaz gets angry at DIB2, thinking that Dib's just acting weird, and starts beating him up, and soon notices that he's a robot. Membrane, meanwhile, is waiting for Dib and Gaz to show up so that he can introduce them to the audience that is impatiently waiting for PEG to be activated. The audience grows reckless, and one kid throws his ice cream at Membrane. Membrane is angry and seals PEG up forever. In the end, the world still needs fuel for energy, Membrane is still a neglective parent, DIB2 is Gaz's robot slave, ZIM's irritated that his plan failed, but is happy that Dib never managed to get out of the cage, and is trapped with the rabid monkey for the rest of his life.

FBI Warning of Doom

GIR can't stop watching the video he rented-- Intestines of War. ZIM happens to be in the room when GIR starts watching it again, and he sees the FBI warning at the beginning of the tape. When the Video Outhouse calls for them to return it, ZIM freaks out and suspects that there's some evil doings behind it. His computer doesn't know what the FBI is, but when he asks it to make an educated guess, the computer suspects an alien-hunting agency. ZIM rushes to the mall where the Video Outhouse is, but it's closed. He breaks in and searches for the store, when he is spotted on the security cameras by vigilant guard Slab Rankle. Rankle commands ZIM to leave, and tells him that he's tangling with something far greater than the FBI: mall security. ZIM is not impressed. He continues hunting for the Video Outhouse, but Rankle transforms the mall into a mass security zone with laser walls and grappling hooks shooting out of every orifice in the walls. ZIM is caught and Rankle, after lecturing him about the importance of rules, throws him into a pit where several people are also being held-- a MacMeaties employee, a NASAPLACE worker who can't stop singing, and Scary Monkey, among others. ZIM tricks the prisoners into sneaking him out, and continues his quest. Slab Rankle spots ZIM once again and sends some more grappling hooks after him, but ZIM manages to reach Rankle's office and swipe the DVD of Intestines of War. As he approaches the Video Outhouse, Rankle goes for one last attack-- hundreds and hundreds of zombies. But the undead beasts are no good, and basically ooze around the mall, falling apart everywhere. ZIM is disgusted and finally reaches the Video Outhouse. He returns the tape, and starts to leave when Rankle offers to make ZIM the co-security chief. A tempting offer, but ZIM doesn't think so.

ZIM sends GIR to answer the doorbell when it rings, and suddenly the transmission is cut short. He finds two aliens in horrible costumes in his living room. The aliens try to pose as humans, but ZIM doesn't give them a second thought, telling them their spaceship is interfering with his transmission. The aliens go to plan two-- they stuff ZIM in a sack, and bring him aboard their ship. Soon, though, ZIM finds that these aliens are not your typical, fierce aliens. In fact, they're basically just morons who happen to have a huge spaceship. They believe that they're the superior creatures in sci-fi movies, but they have no idea what they're doing. Every creature they have ever abducted has escaped. They experiment on ZIM using a gopher and a piece of duct tape. ZIM eludes them easily and, with the help of an immobile blob (the ONLY successful abduction by the idiots), makes it off the ship with a slightly higher respect for the human race.

The Sad, Sad Tale of Chickenfoot

Mysterious Mysteries is getting worse than ever. Their latest case is the mysterious Chickenfoot, a creature that is neither man nor chicken. But Dib sees that it is obviously just a guy in a Mr. Chickylicky suit. After an embarrassing encounter with various world leaders, Dib is furious that the good name of paranormal science is being ruined like this. He sets out to investigate, meeting up with two insane restaurant workers, Maria and Eric, and finally finds Chickenfoot. Chickenfoot is a man named Chuy Rodriguez, under the delusion that he is a mutant, fused to his suit forever after an encounter with a defective microwave oven of DOOM and forced to live his life on the fringes of society. Dib notes that the zipper's probably just stuck, but Chickenfoot refuses to believe it. Dib takes Chickenfoot to the hospital, and with the help of a Chickymeal toy, frees Chickenfoot from the suit. It seems that Dib has finally succeeded in preserving the art of TRUE paranormal science by proving Chickenfoot a fake, but in the end, Mysterious Mysteries starts to question the validity of parascience in general.

S02E29

Megadoomer

The Almighty Tallest are examining a storage planet, looking for useful goods to aid the Invaders on their missions. Red shows Purple the Megadoomer Combat Stealth Mech, a gigantic destruction machine. Purple doesn't like it. But it doesn't matter, it's going to Invader Tenn to help her conquest of planet Meekrob. They move on to another compartment-- full malfunctioning SIR units (think 20 GIRs in the same room with firepower, and you get the idea). Purple decides to send them to Earth. But when the packages are being shipped, one of the alien slaves on the shipping planet decides to revolt and stages a revolution-- starting by swapping the addresses on Invader Tenn's and Invader ZIM's packages. Meanwhile, ZIM has had a very frustrating day, and is furious at Dib. He arrives home to find a package on his lawn, and opens it to find the Megadoomer. He attempts to operate it, but discovers it has no batteries. GIR plugs the Megadoomer into a wall outlet, and the rampage begins. ZIM powers on the stealth, and the robot vanishes, but ZIM and the power cord are still visible. ZIM doesn't realize it, though, and begins a stealth rampage through the city. But the power cord is too short, and the Megadoomer is unplugged, so it's visible again. ZIM and GIR continue through the city, constantly replugging the Megadooomer into different outlets, and finally arrive at Dib's house. Dib isn't afraid at all, and points out that ZIM's mighty Irken cloaking technology makes the robot visible, not the person inside. ZIM is confused, and in a rage, tries to fire everything the Megadoomer has on Dib. Soon, the entire city is in a blackout, but the Megadoomer overloads and turns visible again. Dib takes out his camera, and with GIR's help, starts snapping picture of the robot. ZIM presses the self-destruct button on the Megadoomer, and tries to wrestle the camera away from Dib. They continue the pointless struggle until a bird takes Dib's camera.

S02E30

Lice

Dib is delivering to his class a speech about how Galileo was ridiculed and called crazy, but then everyone was sorry for having doubted him when his theories were proven true. Suddenly, Melvin shows up late for SKOOL because his head's itchy. Ms. Bitters screams out, but it's too late-- a swarm of lice from Melvin's head infects the whole SKOOL, except for ZIM and Ms. Bitters, who show no signs of itching. Ms. Bitters signals to the Countess von Verminstrasser, a.k.a. the Delouser. The Delouser seems to be insane as she quarantines the entire SKOOL and allows for no escape. She sends ZIM and Ms. Bitters to be tested, but Ms. Bitters won't allow a skin sample to be taken. Meanwhile, Dib and Melvin try to figure out the Delouser's true purpose. They overhear the Delouser explaining to Gretchen about how her theory of a "louse queen" has been ridiculed for years, but now can be proven true. Dib and Melvin encounter the Delouser, and Dib tries to explain to her that she's insane. Out of nowhere, the floor collapses and the entire SKOOL winds up in a deep underground tunnel where a gigantic louse is planting eggs in the hair of 15 captured students. Dib realizes the irony that he called the Delouser crazy, even though everyone does the same to him. One of the Delouser's assistants arrives and tells her that ZIM's skin can destroy lice. The Delouser put's ZIM inside a strange cannon that shreds his skin off, liquifies it, and sprays it everywhere. The louse queen melts, and the entire SKOOL is decontaminated. Dib apologizes to the Delouser for being wrong about her. In the end, everything's back to normal, except that ZIM is in enormous pain and Ms. Bitters won't admit to anyone that she has lice.

TAK: The Hideous New Girl

It's Valentines Day at Skool and Miss Bitters says Valentine's Day can be celebrated. Everyone starts giving meat Valentines out. Just then a new student, TAK, comes in from a giant Deelishus Weenie Corporation jet with her dark red-eyed cat Mimi. She starts giving weenies out to all the kids, except for ZIM, to whom she reads a poem. For some reason ZIM thinks TAK has a crush on him, when she gives him some BBQ-covered meat which burns him very badly. He says to the Almighty Tallest he can study TAK on the love rituals of humans. Of course, every time ZIM comes near TAK, she burns him with meat very badly. ZIM finally gives up and goes home, and all of the sudden, TAK comes with Mimi, and then... she turns into an Irken and Mimi turns into a SIR!! She says she was training to be an Invader on the military planet Devastis 50 years ago, but ZIM was trying to get some candy from a machine and he got a huge robot and blew it up. The explosion blew the power on half of Devasis, and trapped TAK, causing her to miss the final test. When she begged a Control Brain for a second chance, she was told she had to wait another 70 years for the next test. She spent the next 50 years looking for ZIM and finally found him. She didn't so much want revenge. She just wanted to take ZIM's place and conquer Earth feeling she should have. After wrestling a random ham demon, ZIM tries to get help and sees he can only get help from Dib. Dib is shocked to see Zim in his house talking to Professor Membrane! ZIM tells Dib all about TAK and shows him the pictures he wrestled off the ham demon of a giant weenie stand, but Dib refuses to help. Then Gaz sprays Poop Cola that sprays ZIM out the window. Dib feels he can defeat TAK himself, so he goes in the Deelishus Weenie Company, in the giant secret entrance and finds TAK there. Gaz joins Dib. Then ZIM comes out of the wall in his Irken spaceship. Dib wonders how ZIM followed him, and Zim says he used a homing device... that was GIR! He was latched onto Dib's head the whole time! Mimi easily defeats ZIM, Dib and GIR and they go flying away. When she comes for Gaz, Gaz sprays her Poop Cola which hurts Mimi but she leaves a small computer chip behind. ZIM, Dib, Gaz and GIR all meet together, and Gaz shows the computer chip Mimi left behind. ZIM figures it has TAK's plan written all over it, but Dib and Gaz won't hand it over unless ZIM lets them see his base. The four go to ZIM's base, where they find that TAK's plan is to use the Deelishus Weenie Corporation to drain all of Earth's molten lava, and spray it into space. Then she'll put candy in Earth and give it to the Tallest in order to prove her worthiness as an Invader. The four come up with a plan. Zim and Dib come in the Voot Cruiser and ZIM drops Dib into the Deelishus Weenie Company to find a way to turn the lava pump off. TAK starts draining the Earth's molten lava and goes in an Irken spaceship with Mimi, but Zim goes after her. They start battling in space. Meanwhile, back at ZIM's house, GIR and Gaz find out they can control Mimi and GIR controls her, making her go crazy. Dib, still in the Deelishus Weenie Company finds a button that says, "On/Off". Dib turns it off. TAK's Irken spaceship falls apart and she goes off in a smaller one and says she'll return someday...right before ZIM throws her into space. In the end, ZIM tells the Tallest he stopped TAK, but they say they like snacks. GIR is dressed as Mimi. Dib looks at the stars and tells Gaz it would be great if he could explore it. Just then, TAK's empty spaceship falls to Dib's house and Dib looks at it with a smile on his face...

GIR Goes Crazy and Stuff

After ZIM's latest plan to taint the Earth's cow-meat supply with DOOKIE is ruined by his robot, he decides to fix GIR once and for all. He sends GIR into a VR world to fight a Dib hologram, slowly increasing the power on GIR's behavioral modifier. GIR is finally locked in duty mode. ZIM sends GIR on a test to investigate a police siren, and GIR comes back with a police officer. ZIM is irritated that he has to wipe the officer's memory, and sends GIR off to do some information retrieval. ZIM replaces the officer's brain with a squid's, and they go off to see what GIR's doing. They find him in a library, draining the minds of everyone there and absorbing their knowledge. ZIM commands him to stop before they're noticed... some more... but GIR refuses. GIR realizes that ZIM is not a master at all, and begins firing at him. GIR chases ZIM and the Squidman through the library, until they are trapped in a corner. Squidman incapacitates GIR with his... ink... and ZIM manages to retrieve the behavioral modifier, switching GIR back to normal. They bring Squidman back to the ocean, where he gets eaten by a shark.

Dib's Wonderful Life of Doom

ZIM has another "I'M NORMAL!" freakout, and Dib is so irritated that no one notices anything strange about him. Dib decides that today is the day things change. In a fit of rage, he throws a muffin at ZIM's head. ZIM is horrified that he has been so tainted, and demands to know who did it. No one admits to it, and ZIM runs off. Dib is victorious. Even Gaz finds it funny. That night, a pair of Meekrob (yes, the planet Invader Tenn was assigned to) come to Dib's house and take the form of giant sneakers. They explain to Dib that the Irken Empire is their enemy as well, although Dib doesn't understand why they had to turn into shoes. They tell Dib they will help him on his mission, and zap him with spooky powers. The next morning, Dib feels great. He discovers that he has an array of powers-- flying, telekinesis, gravity-defiance. He decides to use his powers against ZIM, and finally take action. He has a talk with ZIM for a few hours, and ZIM is convinced. He turns himself over to authorities, and GIR is ecstatic that he gets to self-destruct. Soon, he is famous for proving the existance of aliens. He decides that it will be his life's work. Soon, he discovers ghosts. Several years later, with a new spike in his hair, he finds a load of lake monsters. After twenty years, ZIM is decaying in a tube in a closet, but still believes the Armada will come. Now an adult, Dib opens his own institute of the paranormal/museum/snack bar. Much older, and with three spikes in his hair, Dib is alerted that the Irken Admada has come at last. He leads an attack, discovering that the Massive (the head ship where the Tallest reside) has a weak spot, the side pods, filled with snacks. The fleets of Earth and Irk battle, and Dib personally destroys the snack pods. Tallest Red runs away, crying. The Invasion is over. As the Armada crashes down to Earth, Dib is awarded the Greatest Person Ever to Live Award. As a very old man, with four spikes in his white hair, he is on a talk show, reminiscing. The host asks one last question: did he really throw the muffin at ZIM's head? Dib thinks for a moment, and tells him he did. Suddenly, the heads of everyone in the crowd is replaced by ZIM's. Dib finds himself in a holodeck in ZIM's base. The whole thing was a virtual reality world. ZIM screams at Dib and tells him to get out. Before he goes, though, ZIM lowers a cannon at Dib's head, and shoots a muffin at him.

S02E34

Hobo 13

ZIM's requests to the Almighty Tallest for weaponry are becoming ridiculous. He wants a fleet of battle tanks and death cannons... and a sack of taquitos for GIR. The Tallest remind him that he's an Invader, not a battle soldier, and that he's insane-- er, untrained. When ZIM tries to convince them of his skills, they come up with another knieving plan-- they'll send him to Hobo 13, the, uh, "finest military training planet ever." ZIM falls for it-- hook, line, and sinker. ZIM lands on Hobo 13, a military wasteland. He is assembled into a team along with oddities from around the universe-- Throbulator: Creature of Pure Headache and Invader Skoodge, among others. Sergeant Hobo 678 is the commander of this group of misfits, and tells them to choose a leader. ZIM elects himself, and no one dares to disagree. Hobo 678 explains that they will have to survive a series of grueling tests and reach the Fortress of Pain, or be beamed away to the Losers' Holding Pen of Pain. Back on the Massive, the Invaders that have completed their missions are taking bets. They all bet against ZIM, and the Tallest force a service drone named Bob to bet on ZIM succeeding. Meanwhile, ZIM is sacrificing his team members one by one in order to complete the trials. These tests include crossing a smoking lava canyon, getting past a valley guarded by the fierce Hogulus, slipping through a path of lasers and force fields, crossing a pit of sewage, navigating a maze guarded by a flying snake monster, and getting past a pool of carnivorous plants. ZIM and Throbulator are the only soldiers left once they reach the Fortress of Pain. Hobo 678 is not happy, but Table-Headed Service Drone Bob is ecstatic. ZIM uses Throbulator's swollen head to smash down the fortress door, causing Throbulator to get beamed away. Inside the Fortress of Pain, Hobo 678 tells ZIM that he will fail unless he can defeat the sergeant in combat. ZIM is no match for his commander, so he uses his power suit to steal energy from Hobo 678's mechanical arm. ZIM sends Hobo 678 flying, and Hogulus and Invader Skoodge show up. Hogulus carries Skoodge and Hobo 678 away. Service Drone Bob is up six million moneys, and he and ZIM take a ride in ZIM's new cruiser. But ZIM finds that the controls are locked on autopilot, and Bob sees that they are heading toward a sun...

Walk for Your Lives

It's PROBING DAY! The magical day when the Invaders are inspected by the Almighty Tallest on their work. After Invader Slacks puts up a sad performance, it's ZIM's turn. He demonstrates that he has captured Dib and put him in a homemade variable time stasis field. He can put Dib in fast forward or slow-mo. He plays around with Dib, but the field malfunctions and explodes. The connection is shorted, but ZIM expects the Tallest to check back soon. Dib is gone, and ZIM assumes he was destroyed. VICTORY FOR ZIM! But the base is a horrible mess. ZIM and GIR try to clean up the wrecked base before the Tallest call back. Dib is frozen in place, and GIR doesn't notice him when he dumps him out with the rest of the garbage. GIR discovers a tiny glowing green object amid the mess. It burns ZIM's hand, and melts GIR's arm off (which he enjoys). ZIM's computer analyzes the object, and discovers that it is actually an explosion. It cobonded with the time stasis field, causing it to explode reeeeally slowly. It can't be extinguished, and must be allowed to reach its full size-- thus destroying ZIM's base, and most of the city. ZIM decides to try and dampen its effect by burying it in garbage. They clumsily attempt to get it out of the house, but to no avail. ZIM goes to Plan B-- disguising himself as a reeeeally big woman and putting the explosion inside the disguise. Meanwhile, Dib is trapped in slow-motion, and tries to run for help... causing a colossal car wreck just trying to cross the street. ZIM and GIR reach their destination, but Spooky Chihuahua causes ZIM to lose his balance, and the explosion rolls away. The people of the city run in horror from the growing explosion, but soon notice that it's not going anywhere, and decide to walk instead. ZIM is horrified. The base is a wreck, the explosion is... exploding, and the Tallest will be calling back any minute. He comes up with a plan-- he can use what's left of the time field to counter the slow-motion, and let the explosion run its course, getting rid of it forever. GIR points out that that won't help anything, it'll just make the explosion go faster, but ZIM doesn't care. He needs a piece of the time field to set it off, though. GIR tells him that Dib wasn't destroyed, and is still stuck with the time stasis. ZIM finds Dib, and uses GIR as a slingshot to fire Dib into the explosion. The time fields cancel out, and everything is at full speed again. Boom.

Backseat Drivers From Beyond the Stars

ZIM notices the Almighty Tallest are closer than ever to Earth. He wants them to view his newest scheme to destroy the humans, a monster that sucks out and eats the brains of human beings that ZIM has in stasis waiting for release. The Tallest of course don't care. During this time the Tallest run into a Vort cruiser filled with a resistance movement against the Irkens, the "Resisty." The cruiser is obviously no match for the Tallest's ship and the Tallest fire on the ship, strangely missing the Vort ship. The Tallest's ship goes out of control and starts crashing into things. The "Resisty" follow firing on the ship as it goes on its crazy course. It turns out that ZIM is the source of the problem to get the Tallest to Earth. However, Dib uses ZIM's base also to take control of the Massive, as he while inside ZIM's base, during the TIME (you don't see this happen directly in the TAK episode) of TAK episode, placed a probe inside ZIM's base. The probe in conjunction with TAK's ship, which crashed on Dib's lawn at the end of TAK, lets Dib control the Massive. ZIM fights with Dib over control over the Massive. So ZIM must deal with a Roboparents malfunction, keep the monster from breaking out of containment, and stop Dib. So there's a lot going on in this half-hour episode.

He asks, "Why can't they just simply pull her out?" Someone tells him that she's really lodged in there, and her foot would break off if she was yanked out. So there is a whole sequence of rescue workers trying to get her out. Dib then sees this as an excellent opportunity to expose ZIM without his disguise in front of all these people. Meanwhile, ZIM has a plan to free Moofy. But this will also destroy the earth. He wants to shake the entire earth, causing it to shatter. The President sees this as a great idea. But Dib explains that the earth will be destroyed. His plan is to tunnel under and get the girl out, which will also lead people to seeing ZIM's base underneath. ZIM knows that the only way to get people away from his base is to go out there and rescue the girl himself. So he goes out, and yanks her out of the hole. Everyone is amazed, and then they leave.

The Trial

When ZIM is brought to planet Judgementia, he thinks the Almighty Tallest are throwing him a surprise party. But he is oblivious to the fact that he is actually under an Existence Evaluation-- a trial to determine whether he is worthy to continue existing. If he fails the trial, he will be deemed a Defective. His damaged I.D. Pak, which he cannot survive without, will be taken away. He will be deactivated, erased, deleted from the memories of the Irken Empire, never to be remembered again. Three Irken Control Brains are the judges. They download his memories and watch him grow up with Skoodge, Red, Purple, and the rest of his Irken generation, causing disaster everywhere he goes. They see as he was born, and blew the power of all of Irk for five years. They see as he enlisted his friend Skoodge to escape his first underground training facility and caused the power on Irk to go out for another four years. They see as he killed the former Tallest Miyuki, causing her to be eaten by a demon blob thingy. (In the meantime, GIR is doing just fine on Earth without his master, reigning supreme, having conquered all humanity.) They watch as ZIM's blob thingy returns on planet Devastis during ZIM, Red, Purple, and Skoodge's Invader training and eats the next Tallest, Spork. They see him during Operation Impending Doom I, when he ruined the entire mission with his battle mech. They watch as he destroys a planet by scratching himself. The Control Brains give their ultimate (and obvious verdict): DEFECTIVE. They remove ZIM's Pak and begin downloading his data, removing him from the Invasion forever. ZIM begins to wither. But the data begins to ruin the Control Brains, driving them insane. Out of nowhere, they return his path, declare him the MOST INCREDIBLE IRKEN EVER, and allow him to pilot the Massive for ten minutes. Back on Earth, GIR's been overthrown, but that's okay, everything's back to normal. Heehee. Full credit goes to this site, which has a draft of the actual script to the episode (The script is confirmed to be genuine).

Part two of a planned hour-long season 2 finale, which was cancelled by Nickelodeon. The war has begun and it's a big fight. The Irkens think it'll be easy, however, they find out they're not just fighting the Meekrob, other races of aliens are there. Dib, wondering about ZIM's absence goes exploring in his lab and finds out about the war. He puts together a spaceship capable of getting him to Meekrob and heads out there, wanting to help Meekrob and put an end to the Irken race. Of course, when he arrives, ZIM isn't too pleased. Skoodge goes behind-the-scenes of the war to free Tenn. The war is getting pretty tough and it's getting hard. The Irkens seem to be pulling through though. They start to flee, Skoodge and Tenn escaping too. However, ZIM is left, and it's Dib's turn. Dib and all the other creatures fire ZIM into space, crashing him onto a meteor. Dib is named ambassador for Meekrob and ZIM seems doomed this time...
