Plot
The episode begins in the Laundry room, Scratch and Grounder have captured Sonic and Tails and have thrown them in the gyro-sphere which spins them around like a dryer. Sonic and Tails escape but the static has built up onto their body so clothes start to stick to them. Scratch and Grounder begin to use the Automatic-Static-Schmatic Beam, but Sonic gets it to backfire on them. The blue hero then uses a giant Slingshot to fire them out the door.
At Dr. Robotnik's fortress, Dr. Robotnik is very angry that he hasn't caught Sonic for over so many years and he will some day be too old to catch him. Scratch and Grounder tell Robotnik that Sonic will get older as well and will be easier for them to catch. The thought of Sonic becoming old gives Robotnik an idea to age Sonic prematurely so as to capture him easily. The evil genius creates a device known to be called The Decrepitizer which fires a ray that will age anybody and anything (either younger or older).
Meanwhile Sonic and Tails have decided to be food tasters for the Instant Food Factory. While they are busy eating the instant food, Scratch and Grounder appear and use the Decrepitizer to age Sonic and Tails. Grounder fires the Decrepitizer but pushes the wrong button which turns Sonic and Tails into babies. Scratch and Grounder begin to argue about what happened but as they argue Baby Tails plays with the Decrepit-izer and hits it against the table like a hammer. Baby Sonic wants to fix it, but Grounder grabs it from him so Sonic begins to cry. Scratch tells Grounder to give it to Sonic just to make him stop crying. Sonic starts to mangle the machine a bit, but it still works. Robotnik enters the factory and decides to give the Badniks another chance by allowing them to fire on Sonic and Tails while they are napping. Grounder accidentally fires the Decrepit-izer ray at Dr. Robotnik and he becomes a toddler.
Sonic and Tails wake up and see Baby Robotnik crying out of frustration, but they want to be friends with him. Robotnik refuses to be their friendship and begins to threaten them. Sonic and Tails begin to run away from Robotnik and he chases them into the city until they come across an ice cream parlor and see a man scooping ice cream, and Sonic, Tails, and Robotnik began to cry. Fortunately, their tears were heard by Miss Saccharine, who takes them to the Day Care Center.
Scratch and Grounder try to get Robotnik back from the Day-Care Center to reverse the aging ray. In Day-Care, Robotnik plans to terminate Sonic and Tails by setting up traps for them but instead they backfire on him. Robotnik's 'last' trap is to get Sonic's hands stuck in a rope that is tied to a car. Sonic wraps the ropes around Robotnik's wrists just before the car drives off. Robotnik gets dragged through a lot of hazards and eventually pulled out of the Day-Care Center. Once out of the Day-Care Center, Scratch and Grounder use the Decrepit-izer and turn Robotnik back to normal.
Robotnik returns to the Day-care Center to get baby Sonic and Tails. As Robotnik holds them up Scratch and Grounder use the Decrepit-izing Ray to shoot the two heroes in attempts to make them old men. Miss Saccharine grabs the Decrepit-izer away from the Badniks to keep her Day-care safe. The rays bounce off a mirror and hit Robotnik. Sonic and Tails (now back to normal) escape. Scratch and Grounder look to see Robotnik is now an old man. He says, "I hate that hedgehog..." then falls asleep.
Sonic Says
Sonic warns kids about the dangers of climbing in a dryer.
Tails: "Sonic, help! I'm getting dizzy!
Sonic: "Now does that look like fun to you? If so, your brains are scrambled! Beleve it or not, every year some ignorant kid takes a ride in a clothes dryer (points to a nearby dryer) just like this one, and ends up getting hurt. It gets pretty hot in there, and those dryer fins can break your bones when they get going. (Sonic turns to the home audience) If you think it's fun to climb in a dryer, you're really all wet!

- When the two rats are chasing each other running to the left, the boy rat was on the first line and the girl rat is on the last line. But when Robotnik zaps them, turning them old, the old girl rat is on the first line and the old boy rat is on the last line.
- When the camera turns to the right while the kids were playing outside right at Baby Robotnik who was holding a rope, his eyes were tan instead black.
