It premiered in the United States on June 25, 2004.
Synopsis[]
The girls overhear the Professor and jump to a conclusion that he is getting rid of them.
Plot[]
The Professor is making cakes, but they turn out wrong. Bubbles is passing by and mishears the Professor talking about the cakes, thinking that he is making new Powerpuff Girls to replace them. She tells Blossom and Buttercup, who don't believe her at first until they mishear the Professor again. They decide to show the Professor that they are perfect, but they hear the Professor talking to the Mayor on the phone. They then attempt to show the Professor, but he doesn't seem to really care. Later, the girls are inside when they hear Ms. Keane on the phone, talking as though she's in on the plot to get rid of them. They then distract the Professor by making him sit down, put his feet up and give him a facial.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work either when they get too carried away. Much later a clown named Roger McDongle arrives and the Professor takes him around the side of the house where he talks about throwing 'the old ones' away. Roger asks, "Why don't I just eat 'em?" to which the Professor consents. The girls are listening and think he is referring to them, causing Bubbles to faint from the shock.
They decide to blow up the lab to stop the Professor from making new girls before running away forever, though they destroy the lab, using a unison explosion technique, they also end up destroying the entire house as well. They then discover that the whole thing was actually a surprise party for them and they feel embarrassed. But everyone isn't mad and tells them that they love them and the episode ends.

Trivia[]

- This is the first and only time that the girls perform the bomb attack.
- There is no crime-fighting in this episode.
- This is the first and only time Blossom is heard speaking Chinese (with some English subtitles so we can understand what she's saying). She previously mentioned brushing up on conversational Chinese in "The Bare Facts", and she was also reading the same book in "Cover Up".
- The Chinese dialect that Blossom speaks in is Cantonese.
- In the Korean dub of the episode, Blossom speaks the squirrel language that Bubbles can speak. Her translations are the same as the English version.
- This is the second episode where Buttercup cries in severe cases, the first one being "Bought and Scold".
- Roger McDongle is an obvious pun on Ronald McDonald.
- This episode is also a reference to the anime Crush Gear Turbo, wherein Gear Master Kyousuke Jin overhears a conversation of his teammates and misinterprets it as his teammates will replace him in one of the episodes.
- The title may likely be a reference to Little Miss Philippines, a beauty pageant for female children in a comedy-variety television show Eat Bulaga! from the said country, or the Little Miss series by Roger and Adam Hargreaves.
- This is the second episode where a party is thrown for the girls. The first was "Birthday Bash."
- This is the second episode where the girls make false interpretations of someone. The first was "Substitute Creature".
Goofs[]
- When Professor asks what happened to his perfect little girls, Buttercup and Blossom's eyelids are normal skin color instead of a lavender shade.
- When Blossom says "呢個係男仔。" towards the Professor, there is a typo in the captions as they display "This is a box." even though 男仔 translates to "boy" instead.
