Synopsis
During a board meeting of Sebben & Sebben, Peanut's light shield starts growing uncontrollably, much to his embarrassment. He is going through "superty", the period in which a young superhero acquires his superpowers, and resents Harvey's efforts to help him.
Meanwhile, Augie Doggie comes to Harvey for help. They've put his father in a cage, claiming he bit someone. The case goes to trial, and Mentok claims Doggie Daddy is baring his teeth, and sentences him to undergo aggressiveness training. Phil trains him, treating him like a normal dog and completely humiliating and torturing him.
Harvey seeks advice from Apache Chief, Batman, and Reducto, but they don't help much. What finally does the trick is Peanut's conversation with Black Vulcan about his first time (fighting a villain). In the background, you can see Race Bannon and Dr. Quest playing baseball and football. Meanwhile, Harvey is speaking with villains about helping Peanut with his first time, and finally gets one to comply: X. In return all he wants is the Crest on Birdman's helmet. Birdman agrees to the deal to help Peanut.
Phil brings Doggie Daddy into the office, having completely broken him. Now, he is nothing but a mindless dog (although in later episodes, he is back to normal). X comes to collect the Crest, and just as Harvey is about to give it to him, Peanut comes in with Metallo, his new villain friend. X asks if he can still have the Crest... and Harvey proceeds to blast the bejeezus out of him. Everyone has a hearty laugh.
