Expanded synopsis

The Super-Villains have created a bomb in order to destroy the world. Oddly enough, they're not planning to ask for any ransom, and are apparently unconcerned about how they will themselves escape. During the course of the program, the Super-Villains rob the Super-Heroes of their powers, via Mordru's magical potion. The Super-Heroes track down the Super-Villains at their lair through a maze of transparent schemes to stall them and idiotic sight gags. Then in somewhat tired fashion they subdue the Super-Villians (who have by this time stupidly drank some of the very potion they used to de-power the Super-Heroes), and shut off the doomsday device to canned cheers & applause.
