Invader Zim

Zim goes to the planet of Conventia for the Great Assigning. It is Zim's greatest wish to be a part of Operation Impending Doom II, Irk's plan to take over the universe. But the Almighty Tallest decides to send him off on a "pretend mission" to get rid of him. The Tallest sticks Zim with a little-known planet called Earth and a less-than-impressive robot named Gir. Together, Zim and Gir head to Earth where they will plot the pathetic planet's destruction. Disguised as a human boy, Zim enters grade school where he passes as a human to everyone but one child, Dib. Although no one will believe that the new kid is an alien, Dib vows to Zim that sooner, or later, he will expose him for the alien that he is.

ZIM learns that friendship is a fundamental need for humans and befriends Keef. / ZIM shrinks himself to use Dib's body to destroy the stolen incriminating photos of his secret hair.

It's parent/teacher night and Dib warns Zim that if he doesn't show up with real human parents, everyone will know he's an alien. The closest thing Zim has to a mother and father are the barely functional Robo-parents. Zim formulates a plan to program the Robo-parents with a disc called "Proper Earth Parenting." / Zim and Gir learn that getting home in the big city proves to be more than difficult when they get lost during a test of Gir's newly repaired guidance system.

Zim orders a pair of special goggles that allow him to see microscopic germs - turning him into a germaphobe. Gir and Zim have a shocking discovery at MacMeaties. / Zim is sent to the school nurse when a teacher thinks he is ill. To keep his alien identity a secret, he steals other kids' organs. Much to Dib's dismay, Zim is praised for his plentiful organs.

Out on a routine information-gathering flight, Zim crash lands the voot cruiser in a field. While Zim goes back to the house to acquire a transport for the damaged cruiser, The Children of the Bright and Shining Saucer (a group that seek aliens) find the ship and immediately hail it as proof of alien life. / It's a rainy day at school but there'll be no fun indoor games for Zim. Zim, it turns out, is deathly afraid of water. Dib immediately uses this knowledge to his advantage and starts a full-scale water war.

The students take a test to determine what their future career will be and are paired with an adult counterpart in their field. While it's decided that Dib will be a paranormal investigator and work with a mentor, Zim is told his future lies in fast food and will work at MacMeaties. / Dib has been granted an meeting with the Swollen Eyeball Network to present his findings on the alien kid he goes to school with but in order to attend, he must get his dad to sign a permission slip.
