Clyde, Rani and K9 discover that the Rakweed has spread throughout the school grounds and find themselves trapped in the building. Meanwhile, Sarah discovers that the Blathereen are addicted to eating Rakweed, and plan to cover the Earth with it, as it has a high value on the galactic market. They soon reveal their true identities — members of a family, descended from both the Slitheen and the Blathereen, known as the [[Slitheen-Blathereen family]], who tend to take after the greedy Slitheen more than the noble Blathereen. Clyde and Rani discover from news reports that the spores are spreading across the whole of London, with the districts of Southall, Perivale, Acton and Chiswick all reporting serious cases. They are nearly infected but then the school [[bell]] rings, neutralising the Rakweed spores and some actual Rakweed. Sarah learns that the Rakweed plants somehow rely heavily on communication with each other in order to spread. She breaks out of her restraints and manipulates their teleportation device to return home, only to discover Luke unconscious.

K9 utilises the school bells to defeat the Rakweed within the building. Clyde uses K9 to connect with Mr Smith to send the frequency level required to spread the noise across London (1421.09 Hertz). Mr Smith hacks into every single device that could emit those levels of noise and are within the affected areas, warning Sarah and the kids to brace themselves since it will be very loud. True to his word, everything from microwaves, car alarms and mobile phones go off in a great cacophony of noise, destroying the Rakweed. Luke and the other infected people recover from the deadly spores, and he and Sarah embrace. Furious at the upsetting of their plans, the Slitheen-Blathereen teleport into the attic and confront Sarah and the gang. Sarah gives them a final chance to simply call it off and leave, but they insist on committing murder most foul which leaves her with no choice. On Sarah's request, Mr Smith activates the alarm, which initially confuses them since their smell is highly sensitive but soon causes the Blathereen's stomachs to move then explode, covering everyone and everything in orange goo. K-9 deems the "disintegration successful" ("You don't say!", is Mr Smith's response) and explains that the undigested Rakweed in their stomachs reacted to the alarm, causing them to fart and then explode. Clyde is told to clean up the mess, while the others prepare a barbecue.
