Korvo is determined to repair their spaceship, but Terry introduces him to the television show Funbucket. Realizing that the titular alien is fictional, they create a real Funbucket, who tires of them and befriends humans Travis and Avery. Forced to attend high school, Yumyulack and Jesse are menaced by their classmates and faculty. They shrink a bully named Lydia, hoping to use her to study human behavior. When she threatens to go to the authorities, they attempt to lobotomize her, and Terry pours soda on her exposed brain, erasing her memory. Korvo and Terry create another mutated Funbucket who accidentally fuses with the first, becoming a monster that terrorizes the city. They shrink Funbucket and prepare to kill him, but Travis and Avery take him instead.

The incumbent president, Ruth, restores order and turns the crowd against Korvo, Terry, and the nanobot person, who escapes from Korvo. Jesse, concerned that Yumyulack is shrinking and capturing too many humans, uses technology to manipulate people who were mean to Yumyulack, hoping to teach him that humans are generally kind. Unconvinced, Yumyulack takes her to a neo-Nazi bar, where they are attacked, forcing his automated suit to kill everyone.

Korvo ignores his family's warning that jealous magicians plan to kill him; the family saves him from being shot, but he dies when the black hole trick goes awry. The grieving family agrees to repair the ship in Korvo's memory, and he reappears, having faked his death to bring them closer together. Yumyulack adds a woman named Cherie to his shrunken collection. Inside, she is rescued by Tim, who explains the society the captives have built: kept in a system of connected terrariums—"the Wall"—they survive mostly on candy given by Jesse, controlled by the tyrannical Duke.

Hunting the creature inside a Halloween store, they shrink and capture it. At school, Jesse discovers a flower growing on her head, which releases pollen similar to MDMA, making the popular girls enamored with her. Yumyulack accompanies Jesse to a party and discovers his flower, with pollen similar to cocaine, and bonds with the popular boys. The mix of Yumyulack and Jesse's pollen creates an effect similar to PCP or bath salts, turning the party-goers bloodthirsty and deranged. Jesse and Yumyulack inform Terry and Korvo, who explain the flowers are a temporary fungus. Armed with "emergency medical weapons", the family heals the party. Rejected by the popular cliques, Jesse and Yumyulack find themselves heroes to the uncool kids. Terry discovers that the red Goobler has escaped but tells Korvo it is dead, filling Terry with his stress; elsewhere, the Goobler plots to kill Korvo.

Korvo joins Terry's hard-partying college experience but accidentally causes the "ice lava" that powers their spaceship to flood the city, freezing everyone in its path. Terry teaches himself to repair the leak, returning the ice lava to the ship; everyone who was frozen disintegrates, and Terry reconstitutes their ashes as infants. The family locks Korvo in the bathroom until his intelligence returns. Inside the Wall, Tim and Cherie lead a rebellion to liberate the Duke's food supply, but Tim refuses to use deadly force.

Terry and Jesse are disheartened by the new aliens, who live underground and hide from humans, but Korvo decides to join them, enjoying their rigid adherence to Schlorpian custom. However, he feels under them when he forgets the holy number, and the new aliens ask him to handle menial tasks like Korvo once did to Terry. Back in the U.S., Jesse and Terry ruin the house in Korvo's absence, with Jesse adopting a high-maintenance elderly dog.

Embarrassed, he plans to kill the bullies when a new kid named Daryl shows up and they become fast friends.

| After realizing his warranty complaint box can send other letters into the past (similar to the plot of The Lake House), Korvo uses it to send letters to Terry in order to change his behavior to make him more receptive to Korvo's work requests. Still tortured by the popular kids at school, Yumyulack ignores Jesse's suggestion to get swole and beat them up, instead attempting to procure poisonous snakes. Only able to obtain rabid platypuses, he goes to a gym to follow through with Jesse's suggestion, but is informed by the muscle-bound members that he instead should seek "big dick energy" like that of Pete Davidson. Yumyulack creates his own BDE and is instantly revered. Idris Elba warns Yumyulack that he treads a dangerous path by toying with BDE, prompting Yumyulack to create an even greater one that destroys Rockefeller Center while he hosts Saturday Night Live. Yumyulack is saved by Sigourney Weaver, who tells Yumyulack to replace his BDE with "No Fucks Given" energy instead. At home, Korvo's letters turn Terry into a psychopathic murderer who hunts and kills Korvo, then Yumyulack and Jesse when they return.

| Facing a summer of three months at home with Yumyulack and Jesse while school is out, Terry and Korvo are told by another parent to send the replicants to camp (rather than follow Korvo's suggestion to poison them). While dropping them off at camp, the whole family gets lost in the woods. Two months after getting lost, Korvo and Yumyulack decide to use the "emergency urbanizer," which causes a massive city made of trees to sprout from the forest. There, the family split their separate ways to earn enough money to find where they parked the car. Korvo becomes a Goodfellas-esque mafia member, but is continually hunted by wolves; Terry dreams of being an actor, but ends up as a rough-and-tumble prostitute; Yumyulack follows his dream of becoming a sleazy stock market trader, but his firm is raided by the government and his wife leaves him (similar to the plot of The Wolf of Wall Street); and Jesse becomes an iconic fashion designer, but is left emotionally empty by her career. The family reconnects at Jesse's lifetime achievement award party as a fire consumes the city, finally allowing them to find their car and escape. In the Wall (now closely watched over by the Pupa), Halk and the two officers assisting him get closer to finding the killer, who has now murdered and mutilated five victims. While tracking a lead to a seedy sector in the Wall, the two officers kill a man and assume they have caught their suspect, but Halk believes the killer is still out there.

Jen visits Terry and Korvo to invite them to the wedding, but Korvo declares Jen too "basic" to keep the red goobler happy and stay off his mission to kill Korvo. When an irate Jen begins to attack him, Korvo asks Terry to grab the Rad Awesome Terrific (labeled R.A.T.) ray, but he instead grabs the Rat ray, turning Jen into a rat. She escapes, leaving the two in a bind. Terry begins searching for the correct rat while Korvo accompanies the red goobler on his bachelor party, where the two have an impulsive sexual encounter. At nationals, Yumyulack and Jesse again post record times; seemingly about to be investigated for cheating, they are instead asked to join the U.S. team and become celebrities, much to their exhaustion. Instead, they use more Schlorpian tech to try and learn a life lesson from their cheating, but end up learning mostly clichés. Terry is unable to find the rat Jen before the wedding, causing the red goobler to revert to his old behavior and escape, much to Korvo's chagrin.

While the family is being tortured, the truth is revealed—the three suspects, led by the teacher Yumyulack gave Wolverine-style metal bones to, in fact orchestrated the creation and torture of Peter to get their revenge at the Solar Opposites for what they did to them.
