Not to mention, telling embarrassing stories about them to the citizens of Townsville. This prompts the girls to eventually try and make the Professor give up on being a superhero.
- Batman Gambit: The girls' plan to get the Professor to retire from being a superhero is to trick him into fighting Mojo Jojo, counting on Mojo to be his regular, tough to beat self. After the fight, the Professor is so tired he realizes how hard being a hero truly is.
- Briar Patching: When the Professor announces his hero days are over, the girls beg him to stay. Of course, it’s all an act since they wanted him to quit.
