Plot[]
In the War Room, General Monger is showing photos of strange crop circles to Team Monster and Team Alien, ordering everyone to figure out what they mean. Sqweep gets up on the table and says that she has to go. Monger reminds her that the meeting is mandatory and nobody is to leave until the meeting is over. Sqweep repeats what she said, and B.O.B. tells Monger that she needs to go to the bathroom. Monger asks what kind of bathroom situation it is, and Sqweep says it's a Number Seven.
Followed by Susan and Link's surprise and confusion, and B.O.B.'s terrible counting, Monger asks to know more, much to his chagrin. Sqweep explains that Number Seven is a unique digestive quirk that her people are required to do once every Seven years, with the following information further explained in an explicitly detailed book. Monger allows her to go, but Sqweep explains that in order to go Number Seven, she would have to do it on her home world, as restrooms on Earth aren't built to tolerate Number Seven and doing so would destroy Earth's sanitation system, much to Coverton's interest. Sqweep shows the process in the book, and everyone is disgusted and horrified by the gross content in the book, forcing Monger to have her escorted to her ship.
However, Coverton wanted to make sure the planet's entire sanitation system is destroyed, and disables her ship to prevent her from going home. Sqweep arrives and tried to use the ship, but Coverton's sabotagery completely shut it down, and Sqweep doesn't have any time to fix the ship before she finishes her bathroom break. B.O.B. is horrified about the fate of the lavatories done by Number Seven, and Coverton is surprised that B.O.B. named every toilet in Area Fifty-Something. Monger says he refuses to let Earth's sanitation system come to a destructive end on his watch. Dr. Cockroach hears this and explains that he can build a restroom equipped to withstand Number Seven...as long as Sqweep holds it in until he's done building it. Sqweep demands that she shoud build the Number Seven sanitation unit, but her stomach starts to gurgle, causing the base to rumble. Monger orders Sqweep to focus less on the containment unit and more on not defecating Number Seven on his spotless base.
B.O.B asks to help Sqweep. Monger refuses, but B.O.B. helps Sqweep anyway. B.O.B. is teaching Sqweep on how to not go to the bathroom, even if she wants to, explaining that he didn't use the bathroom for a very long time on account of he saw a spider in a toilet one time. Meanwhile, Dr. Cockroach, Link and Susan get started on building the Number Seven containment unit with reinforced titanium shielding, quintuple-redundant air filtration and the scent of lilacs so that it would smell like springtime. However, Coverton is still determined to see Earth's waste management system literally go to waste before that happens, and he gets an idea after Link scared him in the closet while looking for supplies. While B.O.B. was teaching Sqweep the potty dance, Coverton frightens her a few times, causing her to ionic discharge, which is how her people pass gas, and she becomes extremely nervous. At last, the porta-Number Seven is finished and Susan is surprised at how it came together so fast. Link tests it, but it temporarily goes horribly wrong and Link starts smelling everything and the potty backs up.
Dr. Cockroach tries to fix it, but only makes it worse and stops. B.O.B., Monger and Sqweep come in, and Dr. C operates the containment unit successfully and Link finishes testing, happy at the smell of lilacs. However, Sqweep is reluctant to do it, explaining that she always goes Number Seven in her own restroom on her planet, and the containment unit is not the same. Coverton pushes her even further until Susan flicks him away. Sqweep can't stop, but Dr. C tells her to use the containment unit, as he really wants to see it work. Sqweep suggests immediate evac and hope for the best. Monger complies and has everyone evacuated. B.O.B. refuses to give up on Sqweep and reminds her of the incident with the spider in the toilet, but tells her that he sang a song that brought him out of it. After B.O.B. explains that some of the lyrics won't apply to Number Seven and is going to freestyle the song a bit, B.O.B. starts singing, successfully encouraging Sqweep to use the containment unit. B.O.B. switches from simple guitar to rock guitar and continues singing. The containment unit is able to successfully withstand Number Seven. Everyone is amazed by B.O.B.'s encouragement, the victory was cut short after they leave for the restroom, due to the Number Seven containment unit affecting their digestive tracts, while Coverton, left buried under crates, ends up defecating himself, and the episode ends.
