Synopsis[]
Part 1[]
One fine day in Knothole, Antoine walks with General D'Coolette, listening to his father's story during the Great War with the Overlanders. Suddenly from above, a strange light appears in the sky. General D'Coolette stares in shock as Antoine jumps behind a tree. Sonic runs to the light, recognizing it. Sonic catches a badly injured Zonic the Zone Cop from the light. General D'Coolette asks who is the hedgehog. Sonic tells him he's a cop from another zone, and rushes off to get him first aid. Antoine comes out from behind the tree as Sonic is running away. General D'Coolette is impressed by Sonic's bravery and heroism and that the father must be very proud. Antoine, looking rather disappointed, agrees with him.
Part 2[]
After removing his helmet and gloves, Dr. Quack examines Zonic in the medical center. Examining the bump on his head, Quack feels that he's been though some physical trauma, but is more shocked that Zonic looks just like Sonic. Sonic tells him that he is him, another version of him from a perpendicular zone. Quack wonders who beat him up, and Sonic can't find out until Zonic wakes up. Soon, Antoine and his father find Anti Sonic, where General D'Coolette praises his courage. Sonic brags a bit how cool he is, but then notices that Antoine wants attention. Sonic then tells General D'Coolette a fake story that Antoine's a real hero and that they call him the Original Freedom Fighter. Antoine speaks silently to Sonic when they get away from General D'Coolette. Antoine says that everyone knows he is no hero, but Sonic says that Antoine's father doesn't. Sonic organizes a plan with Antoine to make him a hero.
Part 3[]
After agreeing to Sonic's arrangement, Antoine walks around with his father, waiting for Sonic to go forward with his plan. Just then however, Dr. Quack calls back Sonic to tell him Zonic's awake. Zonic happy to see Sonic, glad that it's not too late. Sonic asks too late for what, but Quack doesn't want him to agitate Zonic. Zonic begins to tell him that one of his worst enemies is after him and loose in this zone. During their walk, Antoine tells his father a story how used karate on Robotnik. General D'Coolette comments on the story that how was Antoine able to attack Robotnik without being Roboticized. Antoine tries to explain, when Evil Sonic appears behind them. Antoine thinking that Sonic has disguised himself as he karate chops Evil Sonic, who is stunned to the ground. Sonic and Zonic catch up with them and Zonic handcuffs Evil Sonic. Sonic congratulates Antoine for defeating Evil Sonic. Antoine realizing he just fought the real thing faints to the ground with everyone laughing, except Evil Sonic wondering what's so funny.

Synopsis[]
Sonic swings by Uncle Chuck's lab and asks if he's going to come to Lupe and her family's going away party. Chuck declines, saying that he needs to do research. Minutes later, Sonic returns with Lupe, her family, and the Knothole Freedom Fighters, bringing the party to Uncle Chuck. Once the party starts, Lupe tries to greet Chuck. He decides to head outside, only for Lupe to follow and tell him that he's been avoiding her. She tries to comfort him and tell him that it's not his fault her family was roboticized, but he disagrees.
Chuck tells her that, even though he was under Eggman's control at the time, he personally roboticized her, Lobo, and the rest of her family. She argues that it doesn't matter because he cannot even remember doing it, but Chuck does not think that's an excuse and blames himself for creating the Roboticizer in the first place. He tells her that all he wants is forgiveness. Lupe places a hand on his shoulder and tells him that all he needs to do is forgive himself. Sonic and Sally agree with her, and Lupe tells the crowd that their party will be held in honor of Uncle Chuck. Chuck thanks Lupe for helping him forgive himself.
