1	Doctor Doctor creates a remote control for the Sun... and Victor accidentally steps on it, turning off the Sun in the process. Now the only chance for the Earth is for Doctor Doctor to ally with U.Z.Z and relight the sun.

3	'''Changed Daily's Name: Oinkey Doinkey.'''
4	----
5	!!Secret Tropes uncovered:
6	* ArtisticLicenseSpace:
7	** Doctor Doctor manages to invent a remote that can somehow turn the Sun on and off. It's also somehow possible to land a space shuttle on the Sun, which is a ''star''.
8	** [[ConvenientlyClosePlanet The Sun is about 93,000,000 miles from the Earth in real life, so it would take about 163 years to reach. Here, it takes about a few minutes for Earth to send a space shuttle to land on the Sun]].
9	** [[WeirdSun The sun is powered by a furnace in its core, and it can be turned on and off with a remote control]].
10	* BigWhat: Victor and Anita react like this when Doctor Doctor reveals she had the real remote with her the whole time.
11	* DeusExMachina: It turns out Professor Professor is on board the ship, disguised as a penguin.
12	* EnemyMine: U.Z.Z. and T.H.E.M. work together to turn the sun back on. Or so it appears until Doctor Doctor double-crosses the agents, revealing that she orchestrated the whole thing as a BatmanGambit to fry Victor and Anita with the Sun's intense heat. Fortunately for them, Professor Professor saw this double-cross coming and boarded the ship, disguised as a penguin to distract Doctor Doctor.
13	* OnceAnEpisode:
14	** The Fluffy Bunny Show: Sweet Little Granny's set is destroyed by an U.Z.Z. submarine.
15	** Anita and Victor land on sky-bikes after the title sequence.
16	** Changed Daily's new name is Oinkey Doinkey.
17	* PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The episode's name is in reference to ''Film/DestinationMoon''.
18	* RunningGag: Victor being blamed for turning the sun off. He's eventually vindicated when it's revealed the remote he stepped on was fake, and Doctor Doctor had the real remote with her the whole time.
19	* WhamLine: Victor and Anita go down to the center of the Sun in order to get it working again. However, it seems like every attempt they make ends in failure, until Doctor Doctor calls them on Anita's phone:
20	-->'''Victor:''' We've tried everything, and nothing will light the Sun!\
21	'''Doctor Doctor:''' Did you try... this? ''[presses button that's off-screen, which lights the Sun]''\
22	'''Victor:''' How did she do that?\
23	'''Doctor Doctor:''' ''[EvilLaugh; [[WhamShot holds up a remote control that looks like the one Victor supposedly broke, starting this situation in the first place]]]'' Ta-da!\
24	'''Victor and Anita:''' [[BigWhat What?!]]
