The Agent of Change

Summary
Francine and Muffy are upset that there aren't enough decent movies with girls as the main characters. With the help of Molly, they make their own.

Plot
Francine and Muffy just saw a movie called Trucks and they didn't like it because there are less females. Binky liked it and quoted a line from it. But Francine showed him a couple movies with boys as main characters. Later they send the producer an email critizing the film, but they didn't read it. So they join forces with Molly, thus becoming the Group of Three, and make their own short film entitled "The Agent of Change," Starring Agent Dpuble X, Molly's childhood creation. They have a creative meeting at the ice cream parlor, but it doesn't work out so well, as Francine wants to branch out into an Agent Double X video game franchise, and Muffy thinks that Agent Double X should be a glamorous spy. As they walk out, Muffy explains to Francine and Molly that she had sent out invitations to the screening and the film is set to be released in a week. They are both surprised by this, and run to Molly's house, where they decide to create a short film instead of a feature. They create their storyboard, and animate the film by cutting out Agent Double X's body into cardboard, connecting her joints together with pins, and using stop motion to animate her. After they are done, Molly burns the film on. DVD and gives it a title. While she skates to the premiere, she accidentaly loses the DVD, but Binky finds it right before the film is about to be screened and Molly puts in the film. They had gotten very positive reviews, (even Binky liked it) and they plan on doing a sequel.
