Plot
Sonic and friends are hanging out at Meh burger talking about the events from "Going Long," only to see a crowd of villagers running past Meh burger. The group decides to check it out and see that Tommy Thunder is back, much to the joy of Tails, Amy, Sticks, and Knuckles, the confusion of Emerl (Who doesn't know who Tommy is), and the annoyance of Sonic. Noticing the heroes, Tommy greets them and pulls them into a photoshoot, aggravating Sonic, confusing Emerl more, embarrassing Buddy, and exciting the others more.

Later at Uncle Chuck's lab, Tommy stops by to ask Sonic if he could, once again, hero shadow him for his next action film. Sonic refuses, remembering what happened the last time and tries to get Tommy to leave, calling him by his real name, much to Sonia, Chuck, and Manic's surprise. The tiger, however, apologizes to Sonic and tells him that after what happened he decided to change his ways and be a better person, showing the hedgehog family all his charity work and other good deeds. Sonic, while impressed, still isn't convinced and once again asks him to leave, despite Sonia trying to talk him out of it.

Meanwhile, Dr. Eggman is using the photos he took from the ancient caverns to try and make sense of the inscriptions. Eventually he decides to invade Chuck's lab to see if he might have data, when he starts to get frustrated. However, he decides to destroy the village along the way, for not reason other than it would be fun.

The Next day, Sonia is shopping with Amy and Sticks only to come across Tommy. She apologizes for Sonic's behavior, but Tommy's alright with it, claiming Sonic had a right to be upset. Suddenly Eggman starts to attack the village and the girls begin to fight as the boys arrive. After a long intensive fight, some of the debris almost hits Sonia, but she's saved by Tommy, who quickly soaks up the attention and Sonia's affection. Later Tommy takes Sonia to the VIP section of Meh burger. They are spied on by Manic, Buddy, Tails, and Sticks, who were paid by Sonic to watch them, except Sticks who tagged along for fun. While Sonia's upset, Tommy calms her down and invites them to join them. He then tries to charm the others into helping him convince Sonic. Manic and Buddy, however, become skeptical of Tommy's motives. Eventually they leave because Buddy doesn't want to disrespect Sonic's wishes, and Manic doesn't want to betray the bro-code.

The next morning Sonia once again tries to convince Sonic into listening to Tommy, but Sonic still remains firm with his decision, until Sonia mentions that he saved her. Sonic once again relents but on the condition that Tommy stays away from Sonia, much to her anger. The process repeats itself as it did in Tommy Thunder Method actor, only Tommy does share credit with Sonic, but only when the others, especially Sonia, are around.

Meanwhile Eggman manages to decrypts the writings and he finally understands when he see's a picture of the chaos crystals and the ancient amulet together. Believing its the key to unlock ultimate power, Eggman decides to hunt for it, heading straight back to Chuck's lab, believing he has it.

At meh burger Sonia and the team (excluding Buddy and Manic) are having lunch with Tommy, admiring him only to be confronted by Sonic, with Buddy and Manic, whose upset that Tommy broke his promise that he'd stay away from Sonia. The two get into a heated argument ending with Sonia calling Tommy a real hero and Sonic a jealous ego-maniac. Feeling hurt, but not willing to show it, Sonic simply glairs at Sonia and leaves. The others are shocked, but Manic the most. Sonia and apologizes to Tommy for Sonic's rudeness, snidely responds that Sonic's jealous, angering Manic who defends his brother as the others try to calm him down, but he ignores them, telling Sonia that Sonic's trying to look out for him because he cares and it's not just what a hero does, its what a brother does before leaving with Buddy. Tails, feeling guilty for not standing up for his best friend and felt a bit offended by Tommy's comment, decides to take off and help them look for Sonic, with Amy, Sticks, Emerl, and Knuckles following him. Unfortunately the group's ambushed by Eggman who was on his way to chuck's lab, and decides to capture the Sonic triplets to get Chuck to give up the amulet.

At Uncle Chuck's lab, Sonic tells his uncle what happened, even showing some tears. Chuck gives Sonic advice on the situation, ending by telling him that a hero stands for what he or she believes in, but the truest heroes never let their ego get the better of them. Sonic understands what he means but before he can replay he gets a message from Manic about the situation. Unfortunately he gets cut off abruptly. Sonic then tries to call Sonia who doesn't answer. Fearing the worse, he decides to head back to the village where he last seen her to make sure she's okay and come up with a plan to save the others.

Meanwhile Sonia and Tommy are walking down the street, and Sonia begins to feel guilty about the way she treated her brother, remembering his hero qualities. The two are then attacked by Eggman, who has captured the others. Sonia then engages in battle but notices Tommy cowering much to her surprise. Eggman laughs and then reveals the truth to her that Tommy's still the same cowardly, ego maniac that he's always been, to which Sonia denies, but Tommy confirms, claiming that the charities where just a way to get sonic to help him, and the other awards, he bought online. Eggman then grabs Sonia with his robot claw, as Tommy runs away in fear. He's eventually saved by Sonic, whose obviously not happy with him. Eggman and Sonic fight as he tries to get him but Sonic gets the upper hand, unfortunately when Tommy interferes, as he tries to run off again, he causes Sonic to fumble and land hard making his mother's amulet fall out of his scarf much to eggman's surprise that Sonic has it. One of his robots then grabs it from him and he attempts to finish the hedgehog off, feeling no need for him now that he has the amulet. However, Sonic's saved when Chuck fires a lazer gun at the robot arm holding Sonia who saves Sonic. The two then free the others and begin taking out the robots. Unfortunately by the time they're done, Eggman's gone.

Later at Chuck's lab, while he's patching them up, Tommy appears and attempts to apologize and talk to Sonia, but Sonic, upset over what happened stops him and tells him off. He scolds Tommy for letting his mother's amulet, a powerful ancient artifact, fall into Eggman's hands along with putting Sonia in danger. He conclude the argument by saying that the hero-shadowing's over. He then tells Tommy, referring him to his actual name, to leave and not to bother them again. Chuck also reveals to him that he managed to ease drop on his confession to Sonia during the fight and threatens to black mail Tommy if he ever bothers them again and demands he leaves. Tommy, sadly leaves, and looks at Sonia one last time before going, as he was truly sorry for what happened.

Sonia then apologizes to Sonic for everything, but Sonic decides that its not a good time to dwell on it, especially since Eggman has their mom's amulet, wondering what he could be doing with it. The final scene shows Eggman hooking the amulet up to a machine and smiles evily as he begins experimenting it.
