Larryboy must go on a field trip to an old home for retired superheros in class. Each superhero is assigned to a retired hero. Larryboy gets Pruneman, but he thinks he is too busy for the old superhero. At the same time, Larryboy and Pruneman must work together to defeat Outback Jack and his evil sidekick Jackie. You see, Jackie is a sock puppet. The terrible kiwi, Outback Jack was in search of burried treasure! Will Larryboy and Pruneman win, or Outback Jack and Jackie? Of course the hero always wins. But how?

They learn tips in superhero class, like helping others and then the hero shall be rewarded. But how will Larryboy go through the wrath of the horrible jesting bee from Outback Jack? The Daily Bumble has to dump 60 gallons of water on the jested fruit or veggie. But when Outback and Jackie find the treasure ... IT'S A YEAR SUPPLY OF SAND! The evil Kiwi is sure there is a better treasure than sand. Outback Jack becomes furious. He presses a button on Jackie which makes a Mega jesting-bee appear. Can Larryboy and Pruneman escape? Of course. We'd need the help of a hero to save the day. "I AM THAT HERO!" shouts Larryboy.

Larryboy hops on the back of Pruneman, who flies smoothly away ... well, not very smooth. The two heros fly toward Outback with the Mega jester-bee following. When the heroes reach Outback, they turn quickly. The bee attacks Outback, and Larryboy saves the day and learns an important lesson: Respect elders. That particular elder was Pruneman.

Back at the old folks home, Larryboy asks Pruneman where the real treasure is. Pruneman explains that he can't tell Larryboy but if you look closely, you can see something special in the Hour glass. Pure gold!

//You are off to a great start! Mr. Shatzer :)//
