History[]
After M.A.D. had already busted out one member of the Funny Money Counterfeiting Gang, the two remaining members, Inky and Squint were told to wait by the prison wall in order to escape in a laundry truck driven by M.A.D. Agent Bruce. When Inspector Gadget arrived, using his extending Gadget Legs to jump over the wall, he asked for directions to the prisoner's parking lot. Inky made use of the situation by telling the Inspector he wanted to move his car, lest not to receive a ticket. Ever helpful, Gadget grabbed Inky by the arm and deposited him over the wall so he could check his car. Inky thanked him and landed in the back of the laundry truck, which drove off. Dr. Claw decided that Squint would be busted out at a later time.
Inky joined his colleague who had been sprung earlier, and together they set up the press for counterfeit money. He reported to Dr. Claw that they only needed Squint to join them, and they could start printing. Claw told Inky to contact the laundry truck. When Squint finally arrived, he did so together with Gadget. Dr. Claw told Inky to get rid of him while Squint got to work on the machines. Inky took the Inspector to the presses, which he thought were used to do the laundry for Metro City prison. Inky attempted to push Gadget into a vat of ink, but Gadget's dog, Brain was also on the scene, dressed as a prisoner, and pushed a wooden cart at inky, making him trip and fall headfirst into the ink himself. Gadget picked Inky out of the ink and put him on the ground while he admired some of the larger printing presses. Inky activated a handle in order to trap Gadget between the press, but this time Brain threw a wrench into the machine to stop this from happening. Claw angrily told Inky that he had already failed twice and implored him to get Gadget once again. Inky pushed a large rolling press towards his quarry, but the Inspector avoided it. At that point, Inky began to stomp his foot and shout that he was giving up.
Soon, Dr. Claw felt that the presses had printed enough fake money and told the gang to destroy the evidence as well as Gadget. Inky locked the Inspector in a smaller room filled with bags, and he and Squint placed another bag with a time bomb by the door. The gang loaded the money on a helicopter and were about to leave the place behind. Gadget led himself out of the room using his skeleton key once more, then chased Brain onto the roof, where the helicopter was about to take off. Inky saw Gadget arrive on the roof just as they lifted off. Gadget extended his arms and grabbed on the helicopter. The Funny Money gang was unaware that Gadget was hanging from the chopper until he stuck out his Gadget Neck to talk to them. Squint, in the pilot's seat, decided to take Gadget for a ride. Inky threw a pack filled with fake money at Gadget, but missed. The package hit a landlord on the head who was about to force an orphanage to close its doors unless they paid him. Unaware that the money was fake, the inhabitants thought their orphanage was saved.
Squint decided to take Gadget to see Claw. Squint was flying right towards a large water tank, when Penny took control of the vehicle using her computer book. She directed the helicopter to fly back to the prison and land in the courtyard, where the entire Funny Money gang was captured by the police.
