"Grr!" Roxy tried to break free.
But the lasso got tighter.
Stinky Bart laughed.
"You'll never get out of my lasso!
It's super strong!"
Whiz-hoo! Roxy fired her eye laser beams at the rope.
The laser beams bounced right off.
"Ugh!" said Roxy.
Stinky Bart laughed again.
"I'll try my heat vision!" thought Roxy.
She stared at the lasso.
An orange beam radiated from her eyes.
But the rope didn't burn at all.
Stinky Bart laughed again.
"Just give up, Rocket Girl!"
The pretzel man called out, "Fly, Rocket Girl!
The lasso might be stronger than you.
But Stinky Bart isn't!"
Roxy's eyes lit up.
She shot into the air.
Stinky Bart tried to hold on to the lasso.
But it was ripped from his hands.
"No!" cried the cowboy.
Roxy spotted an antenna on top of a skyscraper.
"Perfect!" said Roxy.
She flew over the antenna and then dropped down.
The antenna poked through the knot in the lasso.
Roxy pulled, and the knot came loose.
"Yes!" Roxy cheered.
She took the lasso and flew back down to the street.
Stinky Bart was trying to reach his horse.
But people were blocking his way.
"You're not going to escape, you smelly cowboy!" shouted the pretzel man.
"Yes, I am!" shouted Stinky Bart.
"Stop right there, Stinky Bart!" cried Roxy.
"You're going to jail!"
Roxy swung the lasso over her head.
Shwoosh! She threw it at the cowboy.
Stinky Bart quickly jumped. Boing!
He bounced and landed on top of a parked bus.
"I've got bouncy cowboy boots!" Stinky Bart laughed.
Roxy started swinging the lasso over her head again.
Boing! Stinky Bart bounced off the bus and toward a big truck.
Roxy threw the lasso.
Shwoosh! It snagged Stinky Bart's leg.
"No!" he cried.
Stinky Bart fell to the street.
Roxy quickly tied him up.
Detective Smith ran over.
"Well done, Rocket Girl!"
"Thanks, Detective," said Roxy.
"You can take him to jail now.
And make sure he gets a shower—he stinks!"
Roxy hurried over to the pretzel stand.
"One pretzel, please."
Roxy got back to the arena and found her friends.
"Sorry that took so long," she said.
Roxy handed out the snacks.
"Thanks for the pretzel, Roxy," said Terrell.
"No problem," said Roxy.
"Rocket Girl helped me get it."
Terrell eyed her suspiciously.
"You're kidding, right?"
"Yep," said Roxy.
