Synopsis for "There's Something About Justin"
Squid Kid, having captured journalist Marcus Wetherell, uses his Anti-M'Kraanic trans-dimensional interface to summon Nyala-Gorath, a monstrous evil. Marcus mentions that Squid Kid made him late for his date before Kid Juggernaut smashes into the room. Squid Kid asks if the two are dating, but Kid Juggernaut insists that their relationship is merely professional in order to keep his true identity hidden from both the villain and Marcus. Kid Juggernaut easily destroys the interface and closes the portal, rescuing Marcus and capturing Squid Kid before quickly disappearing and returning to the scene in civilian clothes as Justin Jin for his date with Marcus. Though Marcus easily sees through his maneuver, he elects to wait for Justin to reveal himself. Many more dates are interrupted by villainous attacks and heroic rescues by Kid Juggernaut, never coming clean about his true identity. He even enlists his fellow Academy students to pose with a cutout of his heroic counterpart to show himself as a different person. On their tenth date, Marcus confronts Justin, asking him if there is anything he wants to tell him. Citing concerns for the safety of his friends, Justin tells Marcus he isn't ready to be open with his secret. Marcus agrees to wait, but not forever, before an incursion by Nyarla-Gorath prompts Marcus to make an excuse for Justin to run off and save the day.
