Plot

Space Ghost is talking to Adam West when he drifts off, and begins to fall asleep. He awakes to find that Moltar has been kidnapped. A ransom note demands that Space Ghost surrender his power bands immediately to Your Mother, or Moltar will be killed. To save Moltar, Zorak transforms into Batmantis.

After spending a few minutes shooting words into the air to get words to come on the screen, Batmantis and Space Ghost get to work. Space Ghost asks Lee Meriwether for help, and sends her up to Batmantis, while Space Ghost asks for help from Adam West. West refuses, and Space Ghost is shocked to discover he doesn't have any super powers at all. He determines West's life is a lie. Adam attempts to mention his book, to no avail. Space Ghost leaves Adam when Your Mother calls to make clear her demands and gives him 5 minutes to surrender his power bands for Moltar's life. Space Ghost realizes it probably isn't his real mother.

Meanwhile, Batmantis demands Lee Meriwether's money, but doesn't get much out of her. Space Ghost sends off Adam to get Eartha Kitt, who says she won't help rescue Moltar. Time ends up running out, and Your Mother pulls the freeze lever, killing Moltar. Space Ghost then wakes up, and realizes the whole thing was an awful dream, and that Moltar is alive and fine. He decides to have a bake sale.

Notes

• First episode to feature a fairly big amount of original animation, namely in the Batmantis movements.
