Plot[]
Professor Utonium and Ken study up on Z Rays in the lab, before their experiments lead to a giant explosion. Afterwards, they get an incoming message from The Mayor of New Townsville, saying that crime is afoot, and they are in need of The Powerpuff Girls. The girls are in class, listening to a boring teacher, when their belts start blinking, which means there's trouble. The girls make up an excuse, saying that they have stomach aches, and they need to be excused to go to the nurse's office when really, they're leaving class to transform into their superhero secret identities, The Powerpuff Girls Z.
The Powerpuff Girls Z fly over Townsville to check out what the crime is and as it turns out, Mojo Jojo is trapping kindergarteners in a cage and stealing candy from them. When The Powerpuff Girls Z arrive on the scene, the distressed, but excited kindergarteners, ask them for their autographs. The Powerpuff Girls Z sign their autographs just to be nice and Mojo gets jealous that none of the kids are asking for his autograph and it's explained to him that because he's the villain, nobody likes him. The Kindergarten Teacher arrives on the scene and faints in shock.
The Powerpuff Girls Z battle it out with Mojo Jojo. Blossom uses her yo-yo, Bubbles uses her bubble wand, and Buttercup uses her hammer. As they fight, The Mayor of New Townsville looks at them in terror, as they destroy buildings in the process. Back at the lab, Professor Utonium and Ken realize The Powerpuff Girls are running out of power and Mojo Jojo realizes this too. The Powerpuff Girls Z also know this, so they go to an ice cream shop. The Mayor and Mojo Jojo also eat the ice cream, and everybody takes a break.
The Kindergarten Teacher comes back in a rage to get revenge on Mojo Jojo. Mojo then introduces his new invention, The Robo Mojo, which is a giant robotic version of himself. The Powerpuff Girls Z finish their ice cream and get ready to fight him. They use their weapons to destroy Mojo Jojo and they save the day. The Kindergarten Teacher falls from the sky and the girls stop her. Then Blossom uses her yo-yo to open the cage of kindergarteners. After this, The Powerpuff Girls Z say they're good at saving the day.
