Ep. 2: Thunder And Lightning
There’s a new superheroine in town, and her name is Lightning Lady!

Is everything about Lightning Lady crystal clear, or is there more to this mysterious "woman" than once thought?

Ep. 3: The Wrath Of Spotzilla (I)
Loud clog-dancing by Meltman (in midst of a celebration to honor the Action League) goes wrong when it wakes up Spotzilla, a Mesozoic creature that runs rampant upon awakening. After it eats up Stinky Diver during a televised interview, the League realize that they must act fast to rescue one of their own.
-
Ep. 4: Sinkhole Of Doom
The Mayor’s son gets stuck in a kitchen sink during an exploration, and it’s up to the Action League to save him. However, the League's ineptitude at such tasks proves to be an obstacle, with Thundergirl and Stinky Diver spending much of the episode stuck to an active ceiling fan. Can they rescue the victim before time runs out?
-
Ep. 5: No Fly Zone
A mysterious liquid is squirted onto Thundergirl by The Mayor in a sabotage attempt, resulting in her losing the ability to fly. Once the Action League find out that he has two children kidnapped in a birdhouse, only the power of flight can save them, so the League gets to work—using balloons and a slingshot, among other devices, to try to get Thundergirl airborne.
-
Ep. 6: Roboflesh
The Mayor kidnaps The Flesh and unleashes his newest weapon, RoboFlesh: a robot designed to look exactly like his namesake, except for bolts sticking out of his entire body. RoboFlesh goes into attack mode on the Action League, who are having a parade, until the actual Flesh comes to the rescue. The only downside is that the League can’t differentiate between the two!

Ep. 7: Stink or Swim
After a failed attempt at saving a victim from a flushing toilet, Stinky Diver goes on a downward spiral. The Action League must work together to bring back to courage he once had.
