He is instead given the job "egg planter" and leaves, dejected. The bugs left onstage turn to see a starship pod in the sky, approaching their planet.
February steps off the pod. She removes her helmet and begins a mission log, revealing that she is scouting the planet as a potential location for human colonisation. It becomes clear that she is not very clever, particularly given that she removes her helmet before checking to see if the air is breathable, and mispronounces "oxygen" and "science" although she is not the only ranger to do this. She searches for life on the planet and finds some mammals, which she calls cute and "ultra-friendly".
She also reveals that it is her first mission and she struggled to get through the academy. She then witnesses the Mosquito Brothers attack another animal and runs away, scared. However, she is found by a couple of "mammal wranglers" who attack and capture her. Fortunately, she is able to send out a distress signal.
February's signal is recieved by the other starship rangers. Taz , the ship's lieutenant, enters and the other rangers are introduced in turn: Krayonder , Specs , and Tootsie Noodles , who is particularly inept. He asks Taz what his "zapper" is and talks a lot about Farm Planet, where he comes from. He also reveals the strange origin of his name: on Farm Planet, "your first name is what you do, and your second name is what you like".
The rangers assemble and discuss Commander Up , a famous war hero who they are serving under. Tootsie and Specs praise him, but Krayonder spreads rumours about Up going soft after his injury in the Robot War. Taz, who fought alongside Up in the war, defends him.
She stabs Krayonder and delivers a string of compliments of Up and threats against Krayonder, to whom she then says "take a walk off my knife". She then shouts at him to "walk it off". Up enters and initially scares the other rangers as he forecfully denies the rumours about him going soft. However, this backfires when he reveals that he's actually talking about the rumour that he urinates sitting down. He shouts at them about it, leaving them taken aback, and breaks down into tears.
Taz pulls him aside and orders him to give them a scary pep talk instead. He takes out a mirror and tells himself that he's worthwhile and "not a failure, overall" but then breaks down and cries again when he punches the mirror.
The other rangers are not impressed, especially Taz. Junior appears and introduces himself as the son of the director of the Galactic League. He tells the rangers that he handpicked them all, and introduces them to the final member of their team - a robot called Mega-Girl.
The rangers are surprised and scared because the humans have been at war with the robots for years. Taz is particularly riled by the revelation, but Junior reveals that Mega-Girl can't kill them because of an inhibitor chip that stops her from attacking humans, though she does express a desire to.
Taz refuses to work with Mega-Girl. Junior tells her that he already told his dad that they had already gone, and since he is her boss, Taz and Mega-Girl have to work together. Annoyed, Taz and Mega-Girl share a string of insults. Up tries to run away and Taz pulls him back. She shouts at him and reminds him of all the amazing tough things he's done for her, like rescuing her from the robots, chasing away bullies and teaching her calculus.
When Up says that it was all before his injury, Taz reminds him that he also taught her that "no matter how hard you get knocked down, you've always got to get back up". She and the other rangers help to reinstate Up's confidence in himself by reminding him how great he is and how important their work is Get Back Up. Back on the planet, Bug is given a tutorial on being an egg planter. He is taught how to implate bug eggs in mammals. They also witness the birth of a bug and the newborn bug is taught to "devour the closest mammal for nourishment".
Once he is alone, Bug discloses that he still feels completely out of place and wants to escape Life. He then finds February, who is captive in a bug hatchery, blindfolded and ready to be implanted with eggs. They begin talking and she assumes he is a starship ranger, particularly when he parrots the recruitment video once more.
Feeling sorry for her and seeing it as an esape route for himself, Bug rescues February but they run into Bugette on the way out. She tries to stop him from ruining his place in the Hive but he escapes with February. The other starship rangers enter the tunnels to rescue February. While trying to remain quiet, Taz and Mega-Girl clash again and share another string of insults. Tootsie reveals to Krayonder that he likes Mega-Girl. Krayonder tries to put him off, reminding him that Mega-Girl is a robot but is unable to change Tootsie's mind.
Tootsie noisily tries to flirt with Mega-Girl. Mega-Girl insults him in return but he misinterprets it. The rangers find a mammal that has had eggs implanted in it. They scream when the bugs hatch, attracting the attention of other bugs, who descend on them. Mega-Girl attacks, beginning a fight between the rangers and the bugs Hideous Creatures.
Bug and February hear zapper fire from the fight and February realises the rangers have arrived to save them. Bug panics and tries to tell her that he is actually a bug but is chased off by Mega-Girl. Mega-Girl knocks February out to get her back and clashes with Taz again. Taz takes February back to the other rangers as they finish fighting off the bugs and return to the starship but Tootsie doesn't want to leave Mega-Girl behind.
He talks Up into trying to save her but she takes February on board and leaves the other rangers stranded on the planet instead. Bug is taken to the Overqueen and it is revealed that Bugette reported that Bug had been talking to February.
The bugs in the Hive are outraged and deem Bug a threat. They want to squash him, but Roach defends him, using his connection to the Overqueen and flattery of Bug to save him from this fate. However, Bug is told that he can never make contact with the humans again, or leave the walls of the Hive. Bugette apologises to Bug for turning him in and tries to invite him over again so she can tear off his head and let her larvae devour his body, but Bug tells her he doesn't want that.
Bugette leaves, crying. Roach struggles to understand why Bug helped February. When the Mosquite Brothers show up, Bug is enthralled by their offer of a way out, and Roach is unable to talk him out of taking their offer to leave the Hive and meet Pincer. The Mosquite Brothers take Bug to Pincer. Pincer reveals that he knows about the humans and the first crashed starship, where Bug first found out about the rangers.
Pincer is impressed by Bug's knowledge of the human language. He also asks about February, who Bug talks animatedly about, but is still worried about because he isn't a starship ranger and she thinks he is. Pincer brings out a brain leech, which can psychically link two beings, and the body of one of the rangers from the first starship, brain-dead but alive in a cryo-tube. Pincer offers to use the brain leech to transfer Bug's consciousness to the ranger's body so he can truly become a starship ranger, on the condition that he brings back the humans to meet Pincer.
Bug is unsure but Pincer and the mosquitoes remind Bug of his dream and that this might be the only way he can make it come true. Bug decides to take the opportunity, but after he leaves to begin the mind-meld, Pincer reveals his true motive: he wants Bug to bring the humans back to him so he can eat their brains Kick It Up a Notch. The rangers enter, still on the run from the bugs after being stranded. Up tries to talk the irritable rangers down when they start fighting but Taz, frustrated with Up's lack of conviction as a leader, tells him she feels like filling his belly with jelly and punches him.
She shouts at him, saying that they're all dead because he got soft. She also calls him a sad, spayed, little puppy when he won't hit her back. She says that Up "did die in that robot war" and rips off his fake mustache, sticking it to her own face and taking charge of the mission herself. She leads the rangers on but they get stuck to a spider web. The spider is about to eat them when Bug shows up and rescues them. He is in a human body, confirming that the transfer was successful.
Specs realises that his uniform is old, leading the rangers to believe that Bug is a survivor of a starship that crashed eighteen years ago. They praise him for surviving all that time. Bug tries to take them to Pincer, unaware of his true motives, but the rangers realise that they can use the pod that February came down in to return to the ship and go there instead. As the rangers leave, Bug expresses his excitement at being able to leave and "say no to status quo".
Roach makes one last attempt to convince Bug that he belongs in the Hive, saying he'll miss him, but is unsuccessful. Joining the rangers in the pod, Bug reflects on how happy he is that he went against the flow because it allowed him to truly become one of the rangers Status Quo.
Back on the main starship, Junior is on a call with his father, Dr. Spaceclaw, the head of the Galactic League, and tells him that the mission to rescue February was successful, even though the other rangers were left behind.
Mega-Girl explains that her objective said nothing about them returning to the ship safely, and Spaceclaw is unfazed by the loss of the rangers, which Junior is surprised by. However, he is proud when Spaceclaw praises him too. Junior reveals that the plan had always been to send February down alone and get her deliberately implanted with a bug egg so that on her rescue and return, they could study and genetically modify the bugs to make their own private army.
Junior then asks about his mother, and Spaceclaw tells him that she died the day after he left for the mission. He then introduces Junior to his new partner, Junior's "new mother".
Junior is unimpressed by his new mother and tells her to stay out of his room, and then to go away so he can talk to his dad again. Spaceclaw stresses that Junior must succeed in his mission, and then reveals that he found Junior's pot stash. Junior panics and exits the situation by pretending that the call is breaking up. Junior orders Mega-Girl to scan February for signs of alien life to check that they succeeded in getting her implanted with a bug egg.
The scan reveals no bug egg inside her, and a second scan confirms this. When Junior realises that a pod has docked onto the starship and the rangers must be back, he hits himself on Mega-Girl and orders her to take February away so that they won't suspect him. The rangers enter and Junior pretends that Mega-Girl attacked him, which they believe, despite the fact that Junior had previously told them that the inhibitor chip prevents her from attacking them.
Mega-Girl returns and they restrain her. The rangers prepare to leave, but Junior objects. Unable to reveal the real reason he can't leave yet, he lies and says that the ship's warp crystals are missing, so they're stuck there.
Up looks at it in a positive light and orders the rangers to rest and "take a bubble bath". The rangers then introduce Bug, praising him, and Bug reunites with February who also praises him.
Bug hurts Junior shaking his hand. Up asks Taz to watch a movie with him, but she turns him down to train, and February takes Bug off for a tour. The other rangers leave Tootsie alone with Mega-Girl. Tootsie tries again to express his feelings to Mega-Girl but continues to misinterpret her. When she says that her creation and destruction are "inevitable, and of little consequence", Tootsie disagrees, saying that she is special and that he is glad of her company.
He tries to convince Mega-Girl that she can love, despite being a robot. He is somewhat able get through to her. She admits that despite hating humans, she does feel something for Tootsie and it confuses her because it goes against all her logic. Simultaneously, on their tour of the ship, Bug and February both express how happy they are to have made it to the starship and found each other, but Bug also expresses his reservations because he isn't who she thinks he is The Way I Do.
He almost tells February that he isn't human but bows out at the last second. Specs reports to Up and instructs her to sit on his lap. He bounces her up and down and she falls asleep. Krayonder takes her away to bed. Bug enters and asks Up for help. He asks for advice on what to do if someone likes you but everything they know about you is a lie. Up misinterprets the question as being about himself, rather than Bug, so Bug gets Up to sit on his lap and tries to comfort him instead.
In a long, convoluted story, Up reveals that when he was injured in the robot war, he was sawed in half, and the entire right side of his body is now a robot. In tears, he also reveals that he quite literally lost his balls, but retained his human heart. He says that you have to be okay with death to be a good commander but he can no longer stand the thought of anyone dying because he cares too much. Bug comforts him by comparing his newfound care for all the rangers to the love of a mother spider, which becomes deadly when protecting her young.
He convinces Up that his love may make him stronger because he has something to fight for - that he can now fight out of love for his team, rather than hatred of robots. Bug tells Up to find a way to kill with his heart and it uplifts him.
In return, Up asks Bug about what he wanted advice on. Bug asks whether to come clean about lying to February, and Up tells him that he needs to be himself and show her how good he really is. Advice shared, both of them express their gratitude to each other, and Bug resolves to take February down to the Hive and show her how wonderful the bugs really are.
Junior reveals that he was spying on the conversation and questions Bug's motives for taking February down to the planet. He decides to follow them down so he can kill Bug and successfully get February impregnated. He orders Mega-Girl to create a diversion but she refuses because her inhibitor chip prevents her from using her weapons to harm the humans and they would kill her if she tried to cause any kind of trouble.
When Junior says he doesn't care, Mega-Girl calls him sick and says that Tootsie is a far better man, revealing that Tootsie is now her boyfriend in the process. Junior laughs at this revelation, and reminds her that she is "a soulless hunk of metal that can't love" and that Tootsie thinks she is human. She denies this, but Junior continues to insult her for being a "pathetic imitation of life" and Tootsie for not realising this.
He compares her to a toaster, calling her another tool that human use. Mega-Girl vows to expose Junior, but he removes her inhibitor chip to erase her behavioral programs.
She protests as he does this but is unable to stop him. After she reboots, he instructs her to kill all the rangers so that he can move forward with the plan without their interference, but Mega-Girl begins to choke him, since he is human.
He is able to briefly power her down to get away. After rebooting, she runs off chanting "Kill. Bug and February travel down to the planet's surface. February indicates her distaste at being back there, but agrees to trust Bug's reasons for returning.
Roach convinces the other bugs to help Bug show February how amazing they really are. Bugette is reluctant to help beacuse of her feelings for Bug, but agrees to help despite how hurt she feels.
