  • The episode starts with Numbuhs 2, 3, 4, and 5 being attacked by the notorious Delightful Children From Down The Lane. Sector V fight back but aren't defeated until Numbuh 1 shows up and conclude the battle by defeating them once again. At the treehouse, Sector V dry off, as they all got soaked through during the battle, and Numbuh 1 explains that he was needed by Moonbase to search out a number of operatives who had now turned 13 and had to be decommissioned. The team agreed this was very sad, but they ultimately had to accept that nobody could stay a kid forever and once you're no longer a kid, you can't be a member of the KND, but Numbuh 2 brightened it up by stating that they (Sector V) are still not growing up for a long time yet. At the delightful mansion, Father - appearing for the first time - is disappointed with the DCFDTL, but gives his children once more chance, now allowing the kids "The Really Really Incredibly Destructive Machine" at their request along with the age changing device from Operation: C.A.B.L.E.-T.V. which they now decide it is time for them to use. Later at night, the Delightfuls arrive at Sector V's Treehouse with the RRIDM and attack, a long and destructive battle follows but the Delightfuls win this time and, once they had so, they then transform Numbuh 1 into an adult using the age changing device, and then finally finish off what hadn't already been destroyed of the treehouse. The rest of Sector V discover he transformed Numbuh 1 and because of this happening, he has no choice but to leave the KND because he is too old to be in it, and leaves knowing he has to find a job much to his team's heartache. Two weeks later, the treehouse is still in ruins because without Numbuh 1, Sector V has had no motivation to rebuild it or undertake any missions, including getting revenge on the Delightfuls, while in the meantime they had been using a cardboard box as a temporary base. Finally, after realizing make a start (or "restart" in this case) somewhere, Numbuh 4 convinces the others to go get ice cream, but Numbuh 1, the ice cream truck driver, refuses to give any of the kids ice cream as it is against the rules of his duties, much to their disappointment. The team goes to visit the Delightfuls, and manage to steal the device - but the Delightfuls refuse to give it up, and they struggle over the ray, turning into teens, babies, and even seniors. The battle ends with Numbuh 1 coming in, simply asking for the Age Cigar. The Delightfuls are incredulous until he points out that he is now an adult, and therefore, they must obey him. The Delightfuls reluctantly hand over the remote just as Father comes in, congratulating Nigel on "tricking a bunch of kids." Father than unleashes his demonic fire powers on Nigel. Mr. Uno and the Sector V agents fight back and finally successfully overcome him with a barrage of Nigel's ice cream. While Nigel has the chance to use the age cigar on the Delightful Children for turning him into an adult, he chooses to transform his age back to normal and destroy the cigar. Father lies defeated and the Delightfuls tremble with fear over what they had just witnessed. Sector V then leave the mansion together, fully reunited as a team once again and satisfied that they had taught their foes a lesson. Although everything else was now tied up, the team still need to rebuild their treehouse, but Numbuh 1 is not worried, as he states, reminding Numbuh 2 what he had said at the beginning, "It's going to be a long time before [they] grow up." The end credits show their Treehouse being rebuilt, concluding by showing its completion.
