Synopsis As Ron and Russ prepare to enter a sold-out concert on a non-humanoid planet, they are trapped and sent to the club owner, who discovers that they have many warrants out for their arrest. After dispatching the owner and his bouncer (he had them trapped in iron mucus!), Ron looks over the list of who has put out contracts to have them killed and can't place the Blue Wumfs. Always eager to get into some trouble, the Bros go to a local armory and prepare to get some serious planet-smashing ordinance. While there, they run into a street gang of non-humaniod genetic purists. Starting to get annoyed, the two just shift out back to Bugtown, but not before Ron returns to give one of them a taste of bazooka. The two do some research and find out that the street gang is the Blue Wumfs, the same group that had the contract out on them. Getting their plans in order, they find out that all the big ordinance that they usually buy is gone. They then go and see Oscar, another arms dealer. He sells them a cee-tee converter which destroys planets and goes "BOOM!" (Ron's only prerequisite for his weapon of choice). Shifting into the Blue Wumf's church/headquarters, Ron announces his intentions of blowing up the planet before actually doing so. As this is happening, C-3 of the Rondoid Brain Police is noting that the Wumfs have been destroyed. Celebrating that this notorious band of genetic terrorists have been executed, they discover that the perpetrator was Sir Ronald Post, who now is a galactic hero. At first miffed that he was being considered a hero, the Bros decide to play the hero for a change and demand tribute and a big parade on Rigel 7. We then discover that is is all on tape, being watched by Russ, a Caroline clone and Savage Henry. Russ then puts in the next tape, the second part of this adventure.
