The Big Race was happening in Radiator Springs, and everyone was there to see it. Mater was there too, rooting for his best friend, Lightning McQueen to win. But then, Mater was called on a secret mission. He went down on an elevator, and a replica of him was placed in Mater's place. Mater went down so far, and found himself at a secret spy lair. There, a secret spy screen told him that Grem and Acer are out to sabotage the race, and that he must stop them. Then a bunch of robotic arms got him ready for his mission, including taking his tow cable and putting in a new one. Then the elevator sent Mater back. The racers were about to pass, so Mater unfolded some binoculars out of his tow hook, and saw that Lightning was in the lead. Then he saw Grem and Acer chasing the racers with guns. He realized they were gonna hurt the racers, so he folds his binoculars back in, got through the crowd, and unfolded a rocket out of his tow cable, sending him into the air. Mater didn't know how to control the rocket. Then he passed Grem and Acer, who fired missiles at them. The missiles followed Mater. Then, Mater turned around, and passed Grem and Acer, who got hit by their own missiles. Now, there was one more problem: How is Mater going to land?
