Zeep the Living Sponge is a member of the repair business Hero Hotline, a trio of super-powered repair experts. Starfire and Cyborg hired them to fix an ice machine. Zeep the Living Sponge found a hot dog jammed into the ice machine. Cyborg admitted he experimented with trying to turn it into a popsicle. Starfire and Cyborg began breaking things to get them back like Robin's juicer. Microwavabelle used the leftover pizza, warmed up, to glue the juicer back together then Zeep absorbed the excess cheese and it looked good as new. Zeep was used as a plunger for a clogged toilet and used as a hose to put out a fire on the T-Car. Microwavabelle got suspicious about all their calls and they came clean. She told them they could hang out while they fixed the crime alert system. A monster was still rampaging. Since they were trying to get Hero Hotline to hang out with them and they had three members, Starfire and Cyborg thought it was meant to be. However, admitted they never fought crime before and only did appliance repair.
The monster promptly smacked them into the side of a building. They realized they could fix the city instead of fighting the monster. The monster became frustrated with its destruction being near instantly undone. It eventually got tired and Starfire and Cyborg finished it off with a dual punch. The monster landed near the shore. Cyborg told Hero Hotline they made a great team and asked them if they were ready to make the switch to the world saving business. Marie admitted it was fun and all, but their passion would always be appliance repairing. Microwavabelle promised whenever a washing machine made that weird rattling noise, they would be there. Marie promised whenever a stove's pilot light goes, they would be there. Zeep promised whenever a bath tub was draining too slowly and forcing someone to shower while standing in a puddle, they would be there. Marie remembered to give Cyborg the bill for fixing the city. Cyborg charged it to Robin's credit card. She thanked them for using Hero Hotline and they flew away.
