Plot
The episode begins in Web-Quarters with Team Spidey having TRACE-E go through an obstacle course they made. Once accomplished, they receive an alert that a robot is terrorizing people in the park. Team Spidey and TRACE-E take off in Team Transport. Upon arrival in the park, Team Spidey takes on the robot. Hiding in a bush, Doc Ock tells Cal how she created the robot to distract Team Spidey while she swaps their TRACE-E with an evil version that she created so it can lure Team Spidey into a trap. Once the swap occurs, Doc Ock and Cal take off with a captured TRACE-E.
Team Spidey defeats the robot and they learn that Doc Ock is its creator. They try to figure out why she created a robot that was so easy to destroy as they take off to look for her, with evil TRACE-E in tow. Evil TRACE-E takes over the navigation and lures them to Doc Ock, where she immediately captures the heroes. She has evil TRACE-E look after them while she takes good TRACE-E over to her computer and puts it into a cage. However, good TRACE-E uses its scanner to escape before cornering evil TRACE-E. Ghost Spider webs the remote to escape while Spidey deactivates evil TRACE-E before it escapes. He then rewires evil TRACE-E to work for them to confront Doc Ock. The episode ends with the heroes webbing up Doc Ock before walking away with their TRACE-E.
