Plot[]
The show begins with the Ghost Monsters dressed as Power Pellet Trees to fool two Pac-People to take them to the Power Forest. The two Pac-People load them in their truck and drive off. Once the truck has stopped the Ghost Monsters reveal it was a trick to get them to the Power Forest, however one of the truckers reveals to be Pac-Man and also reveals that he tricked them and shows them that they did not arrive at the Power Forest, but rather the Power Pellet Picking Plant, leaving the Ghost Monsters angry. They attempt to chase Pac-Man, but get caught in the machine. The machine releases their eyes and they flee.
The Ghost Monsters return to Mezmaron's lair and try to sneak past Mezmaron but he catches them and tells he is not surprised that they failed. Mezmaron tells the Ghost Monster that he has made a formula to make them powerful. While he talks, Inky spots a fly and tries to swat it, however he accidentally swats the formula and causes it to splash out on him and the other Ghost Monsters. For a second they sense no difference but quickly turn into Super Ghosts. Mezmaron orders the Ghost to find the Power Forest, but Clyde quickly says that they will bring the forest to him.
At the Power Forest Pac-Man plays with a paddle-ball but is immediately told by Grump that the Ghost-Monsters are attacking the town, he quickly eats power pellets and runs to the city. Ms. Pac-Man is up on the bridge where Pinky destroys it, but Pac-Man manages to save her, they try to hide, but are cornered by the Ghost Monsters. Clyde orders Blinky to use his heat eyes on Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, but Blinky tells he cannot control his heat eyes because they don't work right, but Clyde orders him to do it anyways, Blinky eventually does, but instead the lasers go sideways hitting Clyde and Inky, giving Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man a chance to run, but Pinky stops them with Sue chomping the latter. Pac-Man tries to rescue his chomped wife, but is frozen by Clyde and chomped by Inky. Afterwards, Pinky orders both of them to tell them where the Power Forest is, however the other Ghost Monsters realize because of their powers, they do not need to follow Mezmaron's orders and decide to take over Pac-Land for themselves.
The Super Pacs.
Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man leave to find a way to stop the Ghost Monsters, they then find a formula to turn them into Super-Pacs, they turn it into Power Pellets and they become powerful then fly off to Pac-Land where the Ghost Monsters are messing with the city. They spot Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man and quickly realize their new powers and try to flee, however they get chomped and are turned back to normal.
