In the episode "Millionaire Monkey" of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs season 1, Flint Lockwood and his friends, Sam Sparks and Steve the monkey, have to find a way to stop the town's newest superhero, Flint's grandfather, who has become obsessed with giving money away to everyone in Swallow Falls and has created a giant monkey robot to help him accomplish his goal.
As the episode begins, it is revealed that Flint's grandfather has become incredibly wealthy overnight, much to Flint's surprise. He has been giving away loads of money to everyone in town and has even built a giant robot monkey to do his bidding. Flint and Sam soon learn that this money has come from a company that has discovered a new kind of bean that is incredibly valuable.
As they investigate further, Flint, Sam, and Steve realize that the company that is providing the beans to Flint's grandfather is actually a front for an evil corporation that has been using the beans to create monsters. These monsters have been attacking Swallow Falls, and Flint and his friends are determined to stop them.
In order to stop the monkeys, Flint and his friends come up with a plan to sabotage the machine that is causing the monkey robots to come to life. They have to sneak into the factory where the machine is located and disable it before the robots can be sent out to wreak havoc on the town.
With some clever disguises and a bit of luck, Flint, Sam, and Steve manage to make it into the factory undetected. They find the machine and start to tinker with it, but they are soon discovered by the evil corporation's guards.
A wild chase ensues, with Flint, Sam, and Steve racing through the factory with the guards in hot pursuit. They manage to evade the guards long enough to disable the machine, but their escape is cut off by the head of the corporation, who has arrived on the scene. He orders his guards to capture Flint and his friends, but the trio have one last trick up their sleeves.
Using some of Flint's inventions, they manage to defeat the guards and the evil corporation head, and the Swallow Falls residents are finally rid of the monkey menace. Flint's grandfather eventually comes to his senses and stops giving away money, realizing that it's better to earn and use money wisely rather than just throw it around.
Overall, the "Millionaire Monkey" episode of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs season 1 is a fun and action-packed adventure that incorporates some of the show's signature humor and invention-based plot elements. Fans of the series will likely enjoy this episode's focus on Flint's grandfather and the introduction of the monkey robots, which add an extra layer of chaos and excitement to the story.
