It's the day that the mouse brigade is going to take over the slums. The gang decides that they're going to find a job and stop being silly. They're also going to try to find Nemo's mother, but they don't know where to start. They decide to head back to the east, where they've heard more about the bugs. The bug's been getting destroyed, so they'll just have to stay home and wait for the bug to die. They get a call from an exterminator, who says that the whole area has been burned down by the bug. The kid wants to pay the guy back, but the guy won't let him. He's not the kind of guy who's going to go out and make enemies. He says he'll take the kid back to school the next day.
