Last time we had the Doctor request that Jan & Jace, along with Dyno -Mutt, Phooey and Jack join him in the main Consul Room.
The Five looked eagerly at the Doctor awaiting to hear what he wanted.

The Doctor explained that as he had promised Hong Kong Phooey and Samurai Jack would be allowed to go on one of the missions to hopefully recruit a new member to the team. This would be now their chance to shine.
The Doctor told them that he had located the Trio in question and the Tardis was at present travelling to that location.
However, at the same time the Impossibles were performing on stage, danger was lurking in the shadows. . This was in the form of a Cowboy Gun Slinger who called himself Johnny Ringo. The Doctor said he had a worry that Johnny Ringo may mess up the meeting.
The Doctor said knew that this was a dangerous mission, but believed both Jack and Phooey were up to the task. Jack and Phooey very much looked forward to this mission. Both had been in danger many times in their lives.... so accepted the risks. Plus this would allow Phooey to use some of the fight skills that Jack had been teaching him.
The only problem the Doctor could perceive was how they both looked. Phooey was a Canine who acted like a Human. Whilst Jack was a Japanese Warrior who had little knowledge of this time period. And his choice of weapon would not be something the every day Californian would be seen normally walking around the Streets of San Francisco holding. So he asked Jan & Jace to help the two design a disguise so they would fit in with the people of this time period and not draw any attention to themselves.
The twins looked at each other and smiled.
Jan & Jace agreed and as the Doctor had given them full access to his wardrobe in the Tardis. He also believed they would be up to this task.
Now he turned to Reggie aka Dyno - Mutt. He told Reggie that he needed him to help locate the Impossibles once they arrived in California. With his Tracking skills he would be of great help. Plus this would give him a chance to ensure that since his malfunctioning the day before, Reggie was up to the task of taking on the Grand Master without placing himself or anyone else in any danger. Reggie accepted the challenge too.
Then the Doctor sent them all off to the Area of the Tardis that the Doctor he called his Wardrobe, where he stored all of his costumes etc. He told Jace and Jan where it was located, and what to do when they got there.
Jace and Jan lead the trio to what the Doctor called his Wardrobe. Arriving at the spot Jace pushed open the main entrance door. Looking inside he could see that the Room was dimly light, as they all entred the lights came on. This revealed that within the room there were many doors. All of which had strange names written on them that related to different planets. Jace located the door to that related to Earth.
He open the door and went in followed by his sister and the others.
The room was again large with other doors that lead off of it. It too was dimly lit. The lights slightly increased as they entered.
The room was empty apart from a table and a seat.
"Where are the Clothes ?" said Jan
There was a long bench in the centre of the room. On the Bench was a tablet, its blue lit screen made it easy to locate. This is what Jace was looking for. He picked it up and lights of the room came up slightly brighter. Jace then spoke into the tablet as the Doctor had instructed him to.
He said " Please show us clothes relating to Mid 20th Century Earth, 1966 West Coast of America. Male Only.
The lights brightened somewhat more and a panel on one the walls began to open.. Jan and Jace backed away from the opening wall followed by the others. No one knew what to expect.
Once the wall panel had completely opened it relieved a wall on which hung a selection of clothes. Shoes also appeared from behind the side roundels.
Both Jack and Phooey's eyes widen as they beheld some very colourful and stylist clothes.
"I like that one " said Jack pointing at one of the shirts.
" Nice colour " agreed Phooey.
" Yes, I didn't think that you two were the suit wearing kind " Giggled Jan
Then a soft spoken female voice emitted from the control tablet " Would You Like To See More ? " it said
"Yes" said Jan. The wall then rotated and a further selection of Shirts, Jackets, Trousers and Shoes appeared. Some of these were already matched to help with the choice.
"That's better" she said " We can work with some of these .
Then she tried to advise both Jack and Phooey of what she considered would be appropriate for them. Jace at the same time was scanning them both of them with the tablet , this would ensure that any choice of attire would fit properly.
Jack did not seem convinced by what Jan had help him choose, but if it meant he could take part in a mission, he was willing to where these strange clothes.
Once the final choice was made, which had taken many more walls to select from, the Tablet announced.
" Choice Phooey now Ready in Changing Room 1# . Please enter at your leisure "
" Choice Jack now Ready in Changing Room 2# . Please enter at your leisure "
The clothes of choice had been sent to the changing area. Another door opened indicating where they needed to go. Jack & Phooey went off to get changed, Jan & Jace then looked into the other issue. Both of the guys still looked somewhat wrong. Jacks hair was not in keeping with the time, and Phooey was a Canine covered in Orange Fur. They would need a complete make over. This would include Jack's Katana. Jace had thought about this whilst Jan was making the final touches to Jack & Phooey's outfits.
Jace asked the Control Box if "She" could help with the Hair. She said Yes, she could find the right wigs to complete the chosen looks. She also had a solution for Phooey too. This left the sword, the Katana was something that Jace needed to do himself.
Wigs were then provided and a spray to deal with the Orange Fur issue. Armed with this Jace and Jan headed for the changing area to assisting Jack and Phooey with the finishing touches to their looks.
This left Reggie alone in the room. "Oh what should I wear ?" He said picking up the control box that had been left on the table.
" Would you like to see something in your Size ?" the box said.
" Yes Please "he said smiling.
In the changing room Jack was having trouble with his clothes. He was used to wearing his long flowing Kukata robes that allowed him much more movement. He had never worn clothing like this and found the shorts a little bit restrictive. Jace smiled and told him they would be ideal. As would the shoes. Jack was used to wearing wooden Geta traditional shoes of his time. Jan had suggested a type of Flip Flop Sandal. These fitted in with the style of clothing Jack was now wearing. Jace asked Jack if he could have a closer look at the Katana. Jack handed it to Jace. Jace was amazed how light the sword was. He reached into his pocket and took out a small piece of transparent plastic. He placed it on the hilt. Jack looked astonished at what then happened next.
Meanwhile Jan was in with Phooey. His clothes fitting fine, but he wondered if he really needed to wear trousers and shoes ?. Jan giggled and told him yes he did. With his acknowledgment she sprayed his fur. Even she was amazed at the result. He looked at himself in the mirror.
" I look very strange as a Human !" he said
" You look wonderful " replied Jan
After the final touches and their wigs fitted the Twins lead Jack and Phooey back to the other room to make the final reveal to Reggie.
However, Reggie was not anywhere in sight. Had he returned to the main consul room ?
Jan glanced down and noticed that the control tablet was flashing. The smile that she always wore quickly disappeared when she read the message on the screen.
It read " Choice Reggie now Ready in Changing Room 3# . Please enter at your leisure "
"Oh no" Gasped Jan looking at the Tablet.
Jace looked at the screen on the Tablet also ... "Oh no" he repeated.
Jace scrolled forward so they could to see what had been choosen. They looked at the screen and then at each other.
"We better get The Doctor" they said in Unison.
On the wall in most rooms was an intercom. Jan went up to it and pushed the button
"Doctor, Please come to the Wardrobe, I think we may have a problem !" she said.
What was the problem, what had Reggie done now ?
For the answer, return again soon.
Until then ENJOY !.
