Then George and Harold led Captain Underpants back to Jerome Horwitz Elementary School. "Why are we going here?" asked Captain Underpants. "Well," said George, "you have to do some undercover work here." "Yeah," said Harold, reaching into his backpack. "Put these clothes on, and make it snappy!" "Don't forget your hair," said George.

Captain Underpants quickly got dressed behind some bushes. "Well, how do I look?" he asked. "Pretty good," said George. "Now try to look really mad!" Captain Underpants made the nastiest face he could. "You know," said Harold, "he kinda looks like Mr. Krupp!" "Harold," whispered George, "he is Mr. Krupp!" "Oh, yeah," said Harold. "I almost forgot."

Before long, they were all back inside Mr. Krupp's office. "OK, Captain Underpants," said George, "you are now Mr. Krupp." "Snap your fingers," whispered Harold. "Oh, yeah," said George. SNAP! "You are now Mr. Krupp." "Who's Mr. Krupp?" asked Captain Underpants. "Oh, NO!" cried Harold. "It's not working!" The boys tried again and again to de-hypnotize Captain Underpants, but nothing seemed to work.

"Hmmm," said Harold. "Let me see the instruction manual for that ring." George checked his pants pockets. "Umm," said George, "I think I lost it." "You WHAT?" cried Harold. The two boys searched frantically through the office, but the 3-D Hypno-Ring instruction manual was nowhere to be found. "Never mind," said George. "I have an idea." He removed the flowers from a large vase in the corner. Then he poured out all of the water over Captain Underpants's head. "What did you do that for?" cried Harold. "I saw 'em do this in a cartoon once," said George, "so it's gotta work!"
