One big, happy family.
Hiro sees an opportunity to defeat the Mascots when they decide to add a member to their family.

Tropes:

  • All According to Plan: Big Hero 6 let the Mascots get away after they try to steal the Noodle Burger Boy statue because it was all part of their plan to infiltrate the group.
  • Back for the Finale: Momakase returns for the first time since near the end of Season 2.
  • Book Ends: The season began with Noodle Burger Boy reprogramming the other mascots for his team. Now the season ends with the Mascots being reprogrammed to their original selves, this time along with Noodle Burger Boy himself.
  • Comical Coffee Cup: The Mascots give Minimax a mug that says “#1 Mini Bro”.
    • Crushroom is also shown to have one that says “#1 Fungi Gal”
  • Conveyor Belt of Doom: The Mascots plan to “trick” Big Hero 6 into thinking Minimax is in danger by tying him to a conveyor belt leading to a pit of boiling oil.
  • Enemy Mine: Hiro teams up with Momokase to double cross the Mascots. She claims she only did so because she owed him a favor though.
  • Gambit Pileup: Big Hero 6 send Minimax to infiltrate the Mascots and lure them into a trap, but the Mascots were aware and hired Momakase to help them battle the heroes. However, Momakase turns out to also be double crossing the mascots and helping Big Hero 6 stop them. Fred cries tears of joy at witnessing a rare "triple-cross" in his lifetime.
  • Good-Times Montage: One of these shows Minimax actually enjoying his time with the Mascots, making him rethink lying to them.
  • Grand Finale: The second half of the series finale, and the final episode of the series overall.
  • Group Hug: The episode ends with the one pictured above.
  • Heel–Face Turn:
    • The robot family finds work at the Lucky Cat Café once the Obake chips are finally removed.
    • Momakase, following the trend of other villains, seems to have had an offscreen one as well when she helps Big Hero 6 stop the robot family. Fred even notes that she seems nicer now.
  • Huddle Shot: Seen when the Mascots are discussing whether or not to let Minimax join their family.
  • Incredibly Obvious Bug: GoGo plants a bug on Crushroom's cap, which is plainly visible. In fact, the Mascots were aware of it all the time and just played along.
  • Metaphorgotten:
    Noodle Burger Boy: There’s an old human saying: "Go big or go chrome".
    Hangry Panda: I gotta stop you, I don’t think that’s -
    Noodle Burger Boy: No robot wants to be covered in cheap chrome!
  • The Mole: Minimax joins the Mascots pretending to do a Face–Heel Turn in order to lure them into a trap, but they were onto him the whole time and hired Momakase as back-up...only Momakase was also a mole helping Big Hero 6.
  • Reaction Shot: We see all of Big Hero 6’s shocked reactions when the Mascots reveal that they knew all along that they had been bugged and that Minimax was a mole.
    • And then again when Hiro reveals he made a deal with Momokase.
  • Rhyming Title
  • Terrible Interviewees Montage: The Mascots hold auditions for a new member of their family, but none of them pan out until Minimax applies.
  • Vomit Indiscretion Shot: Noodle Burger Boy pukes a stream of pickles after Sgt. Suction’s audition.
