Plot
The episode starts in a dimension similar to the one that the series takes place in, but with a few differences. Dave is part of the team, Eggman wears green instead of red, and perhaps the most notable difference, Sonic and Knuckles' positions are reversed, making Sonic the clumsy one, and Knuckles the smart leader of the team. This alternate Team Sonic fights Eggman in his Octopus Bot when all of a sudden, red and blue energy beams come out of the robot, and the beams fuse together into one. Knuckles gets sucked into the hole formed by the energy beams.

The scene cuts to the main universe, with Team Sonic hanging out on the beach as Sonic rescues a chili dog from hitting the ground. Then, the Knuckles from the other dimension appears out of thin air, and the other members comment on his entrance. Then the Knuckles of the main dimension shows up, confusing Sonic and his pals. Back inside, Amy grabs a blue party hat and sticks it on the alternate-dimension Knuckles to tell the two apart. Tails says he thinks he knows the problem here, but he can't think of it.

Later on at Meh Burger, the other Knuckles is glad to see Dave, but this of course isn't the same Dave as his dimension. Then Tails concludes that the other Knuckles comes from another dimension. The other Knuckles tells about how he showed up in this dimension, and he runs off to Eggman because he can recreate the energy blast. The rest of Team Sonic cares for the real Knuckles when they notice the echidna is starting to flicker a little bit. Tails says that the reason why is since there are two Knuckleses in the same dimension, the two dimensions will implode. Tails needs the two together, so Sonic, Amy, & Sticks run off to Eggman's lair while Tails stays put.

At the lair, the other Knuckles is fighting Eggman's robots when Eggman traps and cages him. Sonic and the girls arrive and see the predicament. They try and convince Eggman that this isn't the right Knuckles and the two dimensions might implode. Eggman then frees alternate-dimension Knuckles without hesitation. Back at Tails' Workshop, Tails is preparing to send the other Knuckles back, and he tells the two echidnas they need to be touching in order for it to work. After getting batteries, Tails starts the machine. The other Knuckles thanks Team Sonic for their help, and the Knuckleses do a fist-bump. The other Knuckles gets sent back to his dimension, where he helps alternate Sonic up and resumes the battle he was in.
