Just then, a girl named [[Stella]], who is a circus Ring Master, shows up to try to catch {{p|Mr. Mime}}. Ash protests that he was going to catch it, but {{an|Brock}} holds him back because he thinks Stella is beautiful.

| Stella then brings them to the circus, where she has her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} perform tricks for the show. She introduces Ash and his friends to her three female assistants. The star of the show is her own Mr. Mime, but unfortunately it will no longer perform because of her harsh training towards it. So, when Stella shows her Mr. Mime to Ash and friends they see it lying around lazily eating snacks. Brock, with a glint in his eye, tells Stella that he will get a Mr. Mime for her. When Ash is confused as to how Brock would catch the Mr. Mime, Brock tells him that someone should dress up as Mr. Mime and perform in the circus with the hopes that Stella's Mr. Mime will see this and get jealous. They hope it will lead to Mr. Mime wanting to perform in the circus once again. | | Stella then brings the group to the circus, where she has her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} perform tricks for the show.

| Ash ends up having to dress up as Mr. Mime. Since Ash doesn't know how to perform any of Mr. Mime's tricks, Stella pulls out her whip and puts Ash into training before the show. Ash comes to find that her training is very harsh, and empathizes with the Stella's Mr. Mime. Eventually, the circus show begins and Ash, in the Mr. Mime costume, comes out for the entry parade and waves to the crowd, including his own mother. Suddenly, the lights go off and {{TRT}} comes in to steal the show. After performing their {{motto}}, they capture Ash with a net and leave, thinking that he is a Mr. Mime. Delia enters the ring and confront Brock and {{an|Misty}}, and asks if Ash was in the Mr. Mime costume. They confirm her maternal intuition. She smiles despite her son's kidnapping, and clarifies that Ash will be released once Team Rocket realize that he isn't the Mr. Mime they were after. Delia invites them over to her house in the meantime. | | Brock's plan is revealed to be dressing Ash up as Mr. Mime.

| In a wood cabin, Team Rocket sit around a meal and talk about how they are going to present 'Mr. Mime' to the boss. Ash unties himself and reveals that it was him in a costume all along. While Team Rocket fumes about Ash always spoiling their plans, he then escapes and steals [[Team Rocket's mechas|Team Rocket's Meowth balloon]]. Needless to say, Team Rocket is upset and start to plan on getting the real Mr. Mime as soon as possible. | | In a wood cabin, Team Rocket sits around a meal and talks about how they are going to present their catch to the boss.

| Meanwhile, Ash's mom, Delia waves Brock, Misty and Stella goodbye after having lunch. Just as they are leaving, the Mr. Mime from the beginning comes knocking on her window. Ash's mom thinks it's Ash, and allows him in for a snack. The real Ash then arrives in the Meowth balloon he stole from Team Rocket and comes home. His mom realizes that it was a real Mr. Mime, and then Ash asks Mr. Mime to help him. Ash's mom asks Mr. Mime to help Ash, offering him a big dessert if it helps, and it agrees.
| | Later, Team Rocket bursts out with a rubber tank, trapping the circus employees and Pokémon with nets. Stella and her Mr. Mime try to escape, but Team Rocket turns around and hones in on them. As they are about capture them too, Ash intervenes, ordering {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the tank, but it has no effect due to Team Rocket's use of rubber. He then sends out {{AP|Charizard}}, but it doesn't obey him. Delia then tells her Mr. Mime to help, and it builds a wall to block the trio. Stella's Mr. Mime sees this and, when the tank turns around, builds another wall to block them from the other side. The two Mr. Mimes eventually surround Team Rocket with a tower of walls. The trio tries to blow the walls out with their missiles, but end up blasting themselves off again. |

| Later, Team Rocket bursts out with a tank trying to steal the Pokémon from the circus. They fire nets at them and pin them all to the ground. The circus helpers get into their trucks and try to escape with the remaining Pokémon, but they are trapped too. Stella and her Mr. Mime try to escape, but Team Rocket turns around and hones in on them. As they are about capture them too, Ash comes in to interfere, and he is reunited with his friends as well as his mom. He orders {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the tank, but it has no effect, as Team Rocket anticipated Ash's use of Pikachu and made sure the tank was largely made of rubber to ward off electric attacks. He then sends out {{AP|Charizard}}, but it doesn't obey him. Ash's mom then tells her Mr. Mime to help, and it builds a wall to block them. Stella's Mr. Mime sees this and, when the tank turns around, builds another wall to block them from the other side.
