Plot
Nearing their 100th save, Phoebe and Max are determined to make it memorable.[2] Billy, Nora, and Chloe get ice cream from a drone after watching a commercial.
Main Plot
After their ninety-ninth save, Phoebe and Max are excited for their hundredth save. They become even more excited when Barb and Hank reveal that the Hero League made a movie about their hundredth save. It was called The Thundredth. So, in order to get an epic movie, the Thunder Twins start hoping that their next save will be epic.
At Splatburger, Mrs. Wong asks the twins to stop a thief who just took a drink without paying for it. The twins refuse to help because they don't want their hundredth-save movie to be a lame movie about stopping a drink thief. Instead, Max and Phoebe start fantasizing and fighting about how their movie would be. Max wants to star in the movie with another cute girl playing Phoebe. But Phoebe wants the movie to be a musical that doesn't even have Max in it. Since they can't agree on the movie and can't find an epic crime to stop, the twins head back home.
A Thunder Monitor alert from Super President Kickbutt informs them that Professor Meteor is in Hiddenville and is working on a project to launch a meteor to destroy the city. To the twins' surprise, a video surveillance reveals that Prof. Meteor in in fact the thief that they refused to stop at Splatburger. The twins rush to Professor Meteor's lair. He stops them using his gravity manipulator which makes it impossible for them to move or use their powers. He says that he is using his technology to cut a huge rock from the moon and direct it to hit the Thundermans house, killing everyone.
The twins panic because they have no way of stopping him. Luckily, Professor Meteor is clumsy and gets entangled in his own machines. He trips and loses balance, giving the twins a chance. They freeze him and rush to their house to stop the meteor. They arrive just in time before the meteor hits. The twins slow it down using Telekinesis and then cool it down with their Freeze Breath. Their family is saved.
The twins agree that this save would make an epic hundredth-save movie. Unfortunately, President Kickbutt disqualifies that save. Because they failed to stop the villain when he refused to pay at Splatburger. So, it doesn't count. Superheroes can't just choose when to save people. While waiting for their next save, the twins save Chloe's ice-cream from falling. Against the twins wish, President Kickbutt counts this as their hundredth save. The Hero League makes some horrible cartoon about it.
Sub Plot
After seeing a commercial for a ginormous ice-cream sundae delivered by a drone, Chloe, Nora and Billy ask their parents to order one. Hank and Barb agree but since they are on their way to Metroburg, they ask the kids to wait for them so that they can eat it together as a family.
While the parents are away, the kids become impatient and order the ice-cream sundae. The ice-cream is so large that by the time they're done, they're too stuffed to eat anything else. When the parents return and order the sundae, Billy and Nora can't eat even a little and are forced to admit that they had ordered one. Surprisingly, Chloe still has room for more.
