A simple plan to have Mort spy on the rats ends with King Julien and Skipper captured and the Central Park Zoo in danger.
Plot[]
The penguins are monitoring their enemies in five stations, including Alice in station alpha and Officer X in station delta. Their surveillance equipment monitoring the rats in hidden station zeta becomes disabled by vague words from the Rat King, which are "leprechaun", "avocado", "mudslide" and "no escape". Now, they are looking to put an undercover agent within the rats' sewer hideout. As penguins, their sizes and avian traits are not perfect to hide among the crowds of rats, so they find Mort to be useful. They shave his tail and put a speakerphone on him, and make the small lemur into thinking he was a rat. He infiltrates the hideout, learning that the rats were simply choosing carpeting colors, though the Rat King refuses to choose No-Escape, but due to his childish nature, his cover is blown. Skipper, who is aided by a cover-blowing Julien, fails to get past the guards since the rats discover that Skipper and Julien are spies, and they find out Mort to be not captured and imprisoned but hailed as a king. The Rat King states he left the throne since Mort has a red birthmark which indicates he is rightful to the throne. When Mort tells the rats about how wonderful the surface world was, the former king thinks that Mort wants to start an invasion of the surface.
Meanwhile, the others start planning on getting in to rescue Skipper, Julien and Mort when the rats start invading. This starts becoming a problem as Mort no longer likes Julien's feet! Later it turns out the red mark on Mort's tail is actually strawberry jam that Mort keeps on his tail. As the Rat King grumbles, the zoo animals quickly repel the rats and send them cowering back into the sewers. Skipper rewards Mort by making him an honorary penguin. Mort takes this as a phrase seriously, knocks Skipper to the ground with only one kick and says Skipper's catchphrase "You didn't see anything".
