* Zim’s impromptu master plan.

However the very next scene, Dib enlists Zim to unveil him at Professor Membrane’s premiere of his new hi-tech bracelet.

This allows the bracelets to transmit enough energy to Minimoose who is actually a device for collecting the energy, to teleport the entire planet directly into the flight path of the Irken Armada schmillions of light years away. Richard Horvitz's delivery of Zim's lines as he explains to Dib what's ''really'' gonna happen with the bracelets is probably the most chillingly menacing Zim's ever been.

** Piloting the ship through the debris field surrounding Earth (note, up to this point the ship was flying itself, but the field makes it ask for her help). And even when the ship is damaged, she manages to make a controlled-enough landing to crash unharmed right next to Zim.
