Plot[]

Digit disappears while visiting his friends the Scritters, so Motherboard sends Matt, Jackie, and Inez to investigate. They discover that Hacker has found a supply of Magnetite (Hacker doesn't know that he's allergic to magnetite--it will cause him to break out in red spots) and will use it to fill up a rocket capable of erasing all of Motherboard’s memory disks. Can the kids stop Hacker before he collects one hundred percent of the Magnetite he needs to launch the rocket, or will Motherboard be shut down once and for all?

Memorable quotes[]

Jackie: Great. Now we'll never get into Hacker's control center. And if we can't get in there, we can't stop Hacker. And if we can't stop Hacker, he'll erase Motherboard's memory with the magnetite. Cyberspace is doomed! Doomed, I tell you! DOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOOMED!

Matt: And the award for the Best Dramatic Outburst of the Day goes to… Jackie.

Jackie: MATT!

Inez: Look what I found...

Trivia[]

Hacker is revealed to be allergic to magnetite.

Errors[]

  • When attempting to power the excavating machine previously used by Buzz, the instructions for finding the right power crystal are "you need a crystal that contains 65 to 85 percent orange power stripes." The power crystal Buzz used to power the machine was all blue because it was out of power.
  • When Buzz ambushed the kids with his excavating drill, Inez was talking through Matt's voice.
  • In one scene Buzz disappears.
  • In one scene, Jackie's scrunchie turned black.
