Back at Eagle Island, the ice machines are converting giant ice balls with a big injector filled with molten lava above as Zeta laughs before she said, "It is glorious! I'm a genius! Yes, I love it! This was my idea." The injector injects the molten lava inside the giant ice ball, but it melted through the bottom and fell down, burning a few down below. Zeta looked confused before she turns to Glenn and said, "Glenn, I wanted lava balls, not lava puddles." Glenn looked nervous as Debbie taunts, "Uh-oh. Glenn's messing up."

"I mean, we... We're very close. We just need two more weeks." Glenn explains until Zeta said, "Two weeks? Two weeks. Huh. It's quite the undertaking. Okay, okay, ya know what? I'm doin' that thing again. That thing, you know, like, where I'm not quite sure I heard what I think I heard."

She turns to one of the guards and ask, "Hey, skinny, sassy face! Did you hear "two weeks," or did you hear "tomorrow"?" The guard answered, "Um. Uh, I heard "tomorrow"?" Zeta turns to the other guard and ask, "Fat dude, what did you hear?" "Uh. Definitely what you said?" The other guard answered.

Zeta takes out her phone and said, "Okay, you know what I'm gonna do? I am gonna call my old engineer, Steve. And you know what? You're a lot like him." The phone rings, but it shows that Steve is trapped in ice before she hanged up and said, "Oh, yeah. I had to discipline Steve. So, what was that that you had said to me?" Glenn nervously answered, "Tomorrow."

"That's what I thought you said. See, everybody happy now." Zeta said as she laughs. Meanwhile, the submarine emerged from the frozen ocean of Eagle Island. The hatch opened to reveal the team with yellow jackets, hats and gloves as they made their grand entrance, until Red slips and slides down the door, landing face flat on the snow. Garry and Leonard laughed until Garry slipped, taking Leonard with him as they slide down and on the snow. The others slip and slide down and on the snow until they get up before Lillie said, "Here we go." The others nodded as Red said, "We got an island to save, kids."

"Two islands. We have two islands to save." Gale corrected him until they hear Mighty Eagle saying, "I can't do this!" They turn to see him staying on the submarine as he continues, "I've made a terrible mistake!" "What are you talking about?" Willow asked as Mighty Eagle looked down, saying, "Zeta." The others were confused as Jason asked, "Who's Zeta?" Mighty Eagle answered, "The leader of the eagles."

"The one who's been trying to destroy our islands. And my ex-fiance." The team gasped in shock as Stella said, "And you're just telling' us this now?" "Better late than never." Mighty Eagle chuckled nervously as he began to explain, "It was many years ago, in the 1990s. She was the smartest girl in school. And I had an incredible sense of fashion. It was love at first sight."

A flashback occurs with him in his teen years when he first met Zeta as they did some stuff together, like ice skating and more as he continued, "I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over. She was the best thing that ever happened to me. But since I wasn't quite ready to mate for life..." Another flashback shows Zeta giving Mighty Eagle an engagement ring, which made him nervous. The next one shows Zeta all alone in the altar, rain pouring down as she cries. "Naturally, I... I... I abandoned her." He finished explaining as they all gasped. Stella knew how that feels with Red before Poppy ask, "How could you leave like that?" Mighty Eagle answered, "Because I am a coward. Many of you didn't know that about me."

"Well, actually... I assume she's been heartbroken ever since." Silver answered before Mighty Eagle said, "You know what? I just remembered. I have something to do back home!" He quickly flew away from the team as Red yelled sarcastically, "Thanks for the help."
