The fame goes to the dog's head as he prefers to eat Henry's steak instead of his own dog food and changes the TV channel to watch his favorite dog show. But the following day, another dog gets awarded a hero's medal for rescuing kids from a building fire. A dejected Ruff buries his medal and brings Henry his slippers in the morning, once again becoming the dog the Mitchells know and love.

The Martians Are Coming: PeeBee's uncle Frank allows Dennis and friends to record a show at his radio station. But they unwittingly activate the radio broadcast, leading the town to believe they're being invaded by space aliens. Among the panicked town folk is Mr. Wilson, whom upon running out into the woods, encounter real aliens marching toward invasion. The two sides scare each other off, with the aliens retreating back to their UFO's, returning to their home planet. A triumphant Mr. Wilson returns home telling Dennis and friends of his success, leaving them wondering how he makes up some grand tales.

Ancient Olympics: Dennis' Grandpa Johnson, a former Olympic athlete, brags that he's still in good shape and challenges Mr. Wilson to a series of events in the neighborhood. The end results are disappointing for both as neither man is able to win, with the kids deciding an overall draw. The two men shake hands, but while the Mitchells await for Grandpa Johnson to arrive for dinner, he and Wilson are still in their handshake waiting for one to tell the other he's the better athlete.
