Zack continues. Then you have to impress her with some smooth spins, which he then demonstrates. Angela continues walking. Zack concludes - finally you just have to bust some moves. Zack does some great dance steps, but none of them impress Angela. Zack slides over to where Angela is standing at the counter. Angela tells Zack to get a life, before walking away. Zack is heartbroken. Tommy walks up to him, laughing. Tommy jokes, real impressive buddy. Bulk and Skull walk in. Bulk remarks, real impressive, if you're trying to get a date with a carnival geek. Skull laughs. Bulk asks them, what's the matter? You guys can't get a date? Zack replies, if you guys are such experts, why don't you teach us? Bulk pulls up his jacket over his head and zips it so only his face is sticking out. Bulk recites a poem to them. Roses are red. Violets are blue. No girl in the world is going to go out with you! Skull laughs once more, but not for long. Bulk is stuck and can't remove his jacket from his head. Skull tries to help him out of the jacket and they both end up falling onto the floor. Tommy and Zack laugh. Zack calls over a few of the girls at the Youth Center as he and Tommy walk over to where Bulk and Skull are laying on the floor. They decide to recite a poem as well. Roses are red. Violets are blue. We sure can learn something from you.....not! Everyone laughs. Later, Tommy and Kimberly are walking through the park. Kimberly asks Tommy, what did you want to talk to me about? You sounded so serious over the phone. Tommy hesitates and stalls as he tries to find the courage to ask Kimberly to the dance. He eventually tells her, well I wanted to know.....Kimberly prompts him, yes. Tommy continues, if you would like to....Kimberly asks him, like to what Tommy? Tommy confesses that he doesn't know how to ask her this. Kimberly tells Tommy they are friends. You can ask me anything. Tommy tries again. Kim, I was wondering, if maybe, you would like to go to the....suddenly several Putties arrive. Tommy calls out a warning. Tommy and Kimberly fight the Putties. Initially, Tommy and Kimberly do well against the Putties. During the battle, Kimberly's morpher falls to the ground and a Putty gets a hold of it. Tommy is still battling his batch of Putties and is unable to help Kimberly. Kimberly goes after the Putty with her morpher. The morpher goes flying through the air and lands by some rocks. Kimberly flips over to the rocks. But before she can grab her morpher, a Putty grabs a hold of Kimberly and she can't break free. Another Putty comes along and they have a good hold on Kimberly. Tommy is knocked to the group by his batch of Putties. The three Putties yank him to his feet and have a firm hold on him. Tommy tries to break free, but he can't. Kimberly screams out, Tommy, my morpher! Tommy replies that he can't reach his. Goldar appears. Goldar commands the Putties to take him. The two Putties drop Kimberly and race over to Tommy. Goldar slams his sword into the ground. A golden glow surrounds Tommy and the Putties and then they vanish.
