Synopsis
Newton is in his bedroom, watching the stars with his telescope. He spots an asteroid, and informs the other Power Heroes that Asteroid 4011 has arrived and that he plans to bring the asteroid to HQ to study it. The PJ's offer their help, but Newton claims he can do it himself. Amaya reminds Newton that asteroids can be dangerous, so reluctantly he joins up with the other heroes in Power Q. As the heroes try to decide who should go with Newton, the PJ Picture Player shows that Romeo's Fly Bots are at various locations in the city. Newton thus urges the others to take care of the Fly Bots, and he will go after the asteroid on his own.
Newton takes his new spaceship, the Newtron, and heads for the asteroid, while the others fight off the Fly Bots that are causing trouble in the city. Newton takes the asteroid into HQ, but once there it turns out it's not an asteroid but a capsule, with Romeo hiding inside. He made the fake asteroid to gain access to HQ, and the Fly Bots in the city where just a distraction. Before Newton can do anything, Romeo opens the airlock and sends both Newton and PJ Robot flying into space, leaving nobody to defend HQ.
PJ Robot thinks they should call the others for help, but Newton doesn't want to since he claimed he can handle this himself. He tries to open the airlock, but isn't strong enough, so he goes to his asteroids for a power boost. In HQ, Romeo tries to raise the antenna for the next step of his plan, but has trouble finding the right button on the console. He thus comes up with a new plan. Newton meanwhile, has charged himself up and is now able to break into HQ. Unfortunately, opening the hangar uses up all his energy, leaving him with no power to fight Romeo. He traps Newton in a Sphero-Trap, then uses his Tech Suit to capture PJ Robot and connect him to a computer that begins to download all the robot's information about HQ.
While the information is downloading, Romeo splices together a fake distress signal from Newton to the other heroes. The PJ's fall for it and head back to HQ in their vehicles. As they approach, Romeo activates the antenna and turns it into a stopifier; it instantly drains the vehicles of their energy, leaving them stranded in space. With the heroes taken care of, Romeo plans to use his stopifier on the whole world. He ejects the sphero-trap with Newton from HQ.
Newton realizes he should have asked for help sooner, and thinks of a plan to get his friends back to HQ. He zaps a satellite with his star power, which collides with the Owl Glider and kicks off a chain reaction that ends in all the PJ Vehicles getting close to HQ, and in position where they can blast the antenna with their weapons. The heroes disable the antenna, and regain control of their vehicles. They all return to HQ and forcefully eject Romeo back to Earth inside his own fake asteroid. Newton has learned his lesson about teamwork, and the heroes shout their victory cry.
