For the third step, Noby sets up a funfair at the schoolyard, (W.I.P.) All the students including his friends were so enraged that they brutally beat up Noby. Upon seeing all the disaster because of Noby, Mr. S angrily demands him to the principal's office and to never set foot in this school again.

Meanwhile at the Principal's office, the Principal screams and yells at Noby about the school fair disaster at school that Big G. caused and decided to sent him to the juvenile hall, much to Noby's shock and horror. Noby begs him not to sent him there, but he did it anyway.

Later, Noby sadly walks home from school, only to see on the living room window that his mom is really demonically-enraged about the incident. After getting into a huge violent argument between his mom, Noby then stands up to his mother, but ends up getting violently punished and was immediately sent to juvenile hall anyway.

Doraemon later sneaks in to the juvenile hall to see Noby, who is seen playing video games (as the juvenile hall actually does let them play games), as they realized that the universe could be in great peril. Noby decides to redeem himself, and with the help of Doraemon, Noby breaks out of juvenile hall.

Doraemon and Noby were at the living room, trying to think of something to stop the Brainwasher. When his mother comes in and sees him and is about to reprimand him. Noby eventually lock Tammy, who has grown increasingly angrier, in the family pantry so they can go stop The Brainwasher against her wishes in order to take action.

Michelle shuts down the with the help from Doraemon and Noby, The Brainwasher is defeated. Later, The Brain-Bot exploded, Big G sees this and gets really angry at The Brainwasher and chases him to brutally beat him up.

At the neighborhood, Doraemon and Noby thanked each other and they thanked Michelle for saving them. Noby has decided to start a new life with Doraemon and attempt to move away. However, Tammy (who is extremely mad and messed up) showed up and is about to punish Noby even harder, but she gets arrested, Noby reveals his true nature to both Michelle and Doraemon, revealing he has pretended to be their friend all along and he only wanted the Hypno-Ring to take over the world, and turns Doraemon and Michelle in prison. Michelle grabs the ring off him and turns him back to normal. Noby gets sentence to the electric chair and sent to prison while Doraemon, Michelle, his parents and the Mayor are free.

Everything cuts back to before it happened, revealing all the events was only Doraemon imagining a worst-case scenario for letting Noby uses the Hypno-Ring, it turns out Doraemon was hiding it in his pocket so the future wouldn't end up like this.

In the post-credits scene, The Principal got a letter from Noby that Michelle gave it to him. He reads the letter that he might learn his lesson. Michelle's mom calls her and picks her up for dinner. The Principal said that he will let him off the hook for now as the film ends.
