"Tokyo Grows" Summary[]

Brain plans to use a "growing ray" to grow Pinky into super-size while dressed up as Gollyzilla (a parody of Godzilla), whilst Brain would stop him in exchange for world domination.

However, the real Godzilla emerges from the ocean and starts to rampage, making Brain think that the Godzilla is Pinky. The episode ends with the ray making everything on Earth grow, including the Earth itself, to the point that Pinky, the Brain, and even Godzilla are mouse-sized by comparison again.

"That Smarts" Summary[]

Brain uses a machine that can increase or decrease intelligence, and uses it so that Pinky can become smart enough to understand that he is the cause of Brain's failures, due to research Brain conducted. Pinky, depressed over the fact that Brain doesn't like him when he is smart, uses the machine to make himself stupid, so Brain will like him again. However, Brain, discovering that he himself is the cause of his failures and believing both of them to be better off with Pinky as the genius and Brain as a moron, uses the machine on himself as well. In the end, both of them are idiots and are too dumb to operate the machine and restore either of them to their intelligent selves.
