Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Carmen Cortez and Juni Cortez have become agents of the OSS and face particularly hard competition with Gary and Gerti Giggles, the children of double-dealing agent Donnagon Giggles (Mike Judge), whom Carmen and Juni helped to rescue in the previous film. Donnagon wants to steal the "transmooker", a device that can shut off all electronic devices, so he can take control of the world.

Carmen and Juni follow the trail to a mysterious island, which is home to Romero (Steve Buscemi), a lunatic scientist. Romero has been attempting to create genetically-minaturised animals, but has instead ended up with mutated "monsters" populating the island. After a number of action sequences, the spy kids (with the help of their family and Gerti Giggles) destroy the transmooker and defeat Donnagon. In order to take a break from the OSS, Juni quits.
