In this episode, things get off to a mystical start for Lord Monkey Fist, as he and his legion of monkey ninja awaken an ancient banana talisman and are instructed by the mystique monkey monk to seek out the most intelligent monkey on Earth, and to follow him to the stars, so that the ultimate monkey master, AKA Lord Monkey Fist, may become unstoppable.
Things, however, aren't going quite so well for Kim, who is anticipating a day of embarrassment after her father sets his heart on her attending an open house for children at the space center where he works. She thinks that she's too old to keep going, and he is seemingly oblivious to this, as noted when he presents her with the "Rocket Booster" sweatshirt that he gave her when she was 8 years old, and expects her to still wear to the open house.
Meanwhile, Monkey Fist searches the internet for the most intelligent monkey in the world, and finds it in the form of Frederick the space Chimp, who would also seem to fit with the going-to-the-stars part. Predictably, Frederick turns out to be a resident of the Middleton Space Center, where Kim is spending an uncomfortable morning with a father who acts like she's still 8 years old, a group of small children who can't quite decide whether she's a teacher or a babysitter, and a best friend who's only there for the rocket-shaped cookies.
After watching Ron freak out upon finding out about Frederick, due to a mascot-induced monkey phobia, Kim sets out to explain to her father that she is too old for the Rocket Boosters group, only to bail at the last minute after seeing how happy he was that they had something to do together.
After searching her conscience, and listening to some bad advice from Ron, Kim decides to tell her father the truth, only to find that Monkey Fist has taken over the space center, and that he intends to blast off with Frederick to an orbiting space station from where he intends to conquer the world. A scuffle ensues and Monkey Fist escapes in the center's rocket. Fortunately, Frederick manages to escape before the rocket takes off. Unfortunately, Ron doesn't, forcing Kim to take off in an experimental shuttle designed by her father, and her father to face up to the fact that Kim isn't a little girl anymore. A dramatic ninja battle ensure on the space station, both with and without the assistance of artificial gravity. Kim triumphs over Monkey Fist. And Ron, realizing that Frederick is on his side, overcomes his fear of monkeys, but temporarily.
Finally, wondering what went wrong, Monkey Fist's legion of Monkey Ninjas, who escaped without their master, consult the banana talisman once more, only to discover that there was a mistake in the first message, leading them to find a new lair and a new leader.
