Season 7

Complete listed story — includes the ending

1. The Venture Bros. and The Curse of the Haunted Problem

Two years prior, J.J. finds the PROBLEM light in the wreckage of Gargantua-1 and installs it in VenTech Tower's lobby. In the present, it drains the fluid from nearby bugs. The Ventures are troubled by their technology going haywire and Dean calls the Order. Rusty asks Pete to trace the source of the issue on the tower's computer, but a possessed H.E.L.P.eR. attacks him. Billy tells Team Venture of the issue and they hurry to VenTech Tower. Hank continues his relationship with Sirena despite Wide Wale's efforts to keep him away, deciding to win Wide Wale's honor by infiltrating his house disguised as a villain and offering his service. Wide Wale agrees so long as he kills a restrained Monarch. The Order performs an exorcism in the lobby and the PROBLEM light turns on. They open it just as Team Venture arrives, revealing that Jonas's barely-living head is inside. Team Venture explains that the light exists to keep Jonas alive, and before Rusty can talk to him, Pete damages the light's mechanics, causing the tower to shake.

2. The Rorqual Affair

21 wakes up late to help The Monarch with his attempt on Wide Wale's life, getting The Monarch captured. Wide Wale unmasks him and reveals that his brother is Dr. Dugong, planning to kill him in revenge. With pressure from the Guild mounting to capture Blue Morpho, 21 tries to reveal the truth to Dr. Mrs. The Monarch but finds that the Morpho Cave has been replaced with an ordinary basement. They go to Red Death for help, who agrees in exchange for a seat on the Council. He massacres the staff of an O.S.I. records building and retrieves Dugong's file. As Wide Wale orders Hank to shoot The Monarch, 21 and Dr. Mrs. The Monarch stop him and Red Death bursts into the penthouse with Dugong, regenerated from his starfish DNA, getting Wide Wale to stop. Post-credits scene: The group watches as someone driving Blue Morpho's car and wearing his outfit converges on VenTech Tower, The Monarch gleefully realizing that this exonerates him.

3. Arrears in Science

The man in the Blue Morpho costume reveals himself to be Vendata and the shaking of the tower causes the Venture logo to fall onto the entrance, sealing everyone inside. The shaking stops when Vendata plugs himself into the PROBLEM light so he can talk to Jonas. Various parties recount the story of the Blue Morpho. Blue Morpho obeyed Jonas because he was blackmailed with a sex tape, and Jonas had his wife "swing by my compound" when she was having trouble conceiving. When she became pregnant, Jonas took Kano as payment. After Blue Morpho died in a plane crash, Jonas made his remains into a cyborg, but Kano was forced to kill him after he tried to strangle Rusty while malfunctioning. Dr. Z found him and reprogrammed him into the evil Vendata, who was taken by Red Death to hijack a movie night on Gargantua-1, where Jonas caught him trying to broadcast the sex tape. He told Vendata that he was the Blue Morpho, prompting Vendata to open the bay doors, killing Jonas. After Brock beat him up in Don Hell's club, he regained fragments of his memory and walked to Newark, putting on his old costume and seeking out Jonas. Back in the present, the Action Man has a stroke and Pete uses the lobby's shrink ray to get Team Venture out of the tower. The Monarch breaks in, planning to kill Blue Morpho to clear his name. His presence distracts Blue Morpho and he addresses him as "Malcolm", prompting Jonas to seize him with the light's tendrils. Blue Morpho engages his thrusters and they fatally crash. The Monarch addresses Blue Morpho as "daddy?" and claims he killed both men when the Guild arrives. Post-credits scene: At the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Team Venture discusses the health of the Action Man, who is in a coma. A balloon of a young Rusty gets loose and flies away.

4. The High Cost of Loathing

After Rusty sustains severe injuries jumping out a window while demonstrating his new technology, Hank uses him being gone as an excuse to rent out his old room to a German couple. With his relationship with Sirena straining because college is taking up all her time, he tries to admit his insecurities to Rusty, only to realize he is high on morphine. Hatred and Brock kill the German couple, assuming them to be intruders. The Monarch is assessed by the Council as a level five (out of ten) villain, and Dr. Mrs The Monarch advises him to arch legitimately for a while when he overdraws on his bank account. Dean moves into his college campus and learns that Rusty has enrolled him in multiple science classes against his will. He talks to his superhero professor, who encourages him to try his botany class, with Sirena being the only other student. The Monarch crashes the class because the professor is his new arch, and a fed-up Dean pays him one million dollars to leave them alone. Sirena thanks him with a kiss on the cheek, and Dean realizes he is attracted to her. Post-credits scene: The Monarch is celebrated as the Guild's top earner of the month and is moved up a level.

5. The Inamorata Consequence

The Guild and the O.S.I. agree to renegotiate the terms of the "Treaty of Tolerance" at the ruins of the compound. Hank hangs out with Dermott, now an O.S.I. soldier, and they witness S-464 and McManus almost having sex, but she stops and leaves in disgust when she notices "PP" on his belt. Dean goes to Ben's house and meets a model of H.E.L.P.eR. that can speak, watching the house while Ben is away, who acknowledges that Dean has been cloned - yet addresses him as "Rusty" as he leaves. The Guild and the O.S.I. are unable to reach an agreement over the logistics of their conditions, and Rusty, the mediator, snaps at them and accuses them of being childish, forcing them to come to an agreement. As Dermott reports the incident with S-464 to Gathers and Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, Dean, realizing Rusty is also a clone, hugs him. Post-credits scene: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch explains to Phantom Limb that "PP" stands for "Peril Partnership", a rival villain organization, meaning they have a mole in the Guild.

6. The Bellicose Proxy

Dr. Mrs. The Monarch convinces S-464 to act as a double agent for the Guild in exchange for helping him get McManus back. The Monarch takes part in the "Little Villain" training program, where he is assigned to St. Cloud. He and 21 find their efforts to make him more menacing futile, although Dr. Mrs. The Monarch illegally upgrades his weapons above his level, knowing it will catch the O.S.I.'s attention. St. Cloud announces his arching of Billy and Pete, who Rusty and Brock try and fail to make ready to fight him. During the fight, St. Cloud accidentally gases them and himself with nitrous oxide. S-464 talks to McManus when she arrives and they reconcile. Post-credits scene: As Billy and Pete recount their triumph over St. Cloud to the boys, Brock asks Rusty if they are ever going to tell them that they were hallucinating and fell asleep next to St. Cloud, which Rusty asserts they never will.

7. The Unicorn in Captivity

Rusty finishes his teleporter and Brock takes him to Gathers, who urges him to give it up so it does not destabilize the world economy. When he refuses, Gathers leaves him to talk to the Illuminati, who invite him to a gathering to try and change his mind. There, they give him the choice between having anything he wants by giving up the teleporter or being killed. The Monarch is tasked to work with a team put together by Copycat, planning to steal the teleporters from VenTech Tower. 21 arrives to give The Monarch his costume's wings and discovers that Copycat is using the team as a decoy. Copycat intentionally triggers the security system after Brock arrives to collect the teleporters, sending one of them to the panic room, and The Monarch winds up in it when Copycat's helicopter clips him. As Brock kills the team, Copycat airlifts the panic room out of the tower, only for Hatred to shoot down the helicopter, killing him. The Monarch escapes by using the teleporter, winding up next to 21, who has taken the other and is driving away. They crash and wind up with both teleporters after the other one falls out of the dropped panic room, narrowly escaping from Brock. Post-credits scene: Rusty, believing he is having an orgy, is actually in an O.S.I. simulation and having sex with a machine.

8. The Terminus Mandate

Rusty seeks out Teresa Didae, a woman notorious for marrying wealthy men before she kills them for their money. The Council meets with a Partnership representative, who agrees to leave the Guild alone if they are paid off. Dr. Mrs. The Monarch learns that to fully become the governing body of the Guild, the Council must perform one last arch and retire as villains. Red Mantle and Dragoon fearfully put off finding out who their arch is, only to learn that all of them are dead. Phantom Limb and Gathers have a penis-measuring competition, which the former wins by an inch. Red Death does not read his arch letter and instead kidnaps the Partnership man, ties him to a set of train tracks, and tells him that the Guild will not submit, although his fate is left unknown. Dr. Z goes to Johnny's rehab clinic and they reminisce about their old battles. Dr. Mrs. The Monarch goes in her old costume with 21 to arch her nemesis, who turns out to be Didae. 21 convinces her to approach her and they reconcile. She later reveals to 21 that she stole Didae's wallet. Didae goes to meet Rusty, but he is so strung out on the antivenoms Brock dosed him with that he passes out. Post-credits scene: All of the councilmen except Wide Wale join the Council officially. When asked what her decision is, Dr. Mrs. The Monarch hesitates.

9. The Forecast Manufacturer

New York is besieged by an unending blizzard, and the Guild tasks The Monarch and 21 with killing hoarder villain The Creep, who they believe stole a Guild weather machine and created it. He forces them to play lawn darts for their lives, but is distracted when Rusty and Billy come out of a stolen time machine (and Rusty addresses The Monarch as "Malcolm") and is killed by the dart. Rusty is tasked by the O.S.I. with destroying the machine, so he takes Billy to stop it, who pushes out a thermal suppository Rusty is having him test into the machine's vent. They discover that S-464 is operating the machine, who explains that he did it to get McManus's attention. Unable to get in touch with Sirena, Hank hikes across the city and hits his head on a street light. He is found by a mute person in a bloodstained bear costume, who carries him to Dean's dorm, where he finds Sirena cheating on him before passing out from his head wound. Post-credits scene: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch brings McManus to S-464, who detains her, his brain having been reprogrammed.

10. The Saphrax Protocol

Dean tries to apologize to a comatose Hank by listing off the ways he has been a bad brother and admits he wants things to go back to normal. Hank awakens in a world that is a cross between The Empire Strikes Back and the film Barbarella, realizing it is purgatory. He meets the Action Man, who reveals that his mother's name is "Bobbi St. Simone". Phage, in a coma after his cybernetic parts injured him during a teleporter test, saves them from a wampa. Hank jumps into the Mathmos to escape. The Guild uses Rusty's teleporter to break into VenTech Tower and take Rusty to Meteor Majeure. They leave behind a squadron of soldiers to subdue Brock, who he gleefully massacres. The Council hosts The Monarch's level ten promotion ceremony on Meteor Majeure, where he and 21 are put through several tests. 21 is offered a villain role, and the Council gives The Monarch the choice to kill Rusty. Annoyed, he decries the rituals and 21 sides with him, only for the Council to reveal that the rejection was the final test. With Brock threatening to come through the teleporter if they do not send Rusty back, Watch and Ward go to fetch him, revealing in the process that they tested Rusty's blood and that he is related to The Monarch. Post-credits scene: Dean wakes up to learn that Hank has left the hospital, who vanishes into the crowd wearing his Batman mask, stating that "it's time I grow up."
