The main theme of the marathon was that the KND needed to build a satellite, and had to look at the other shows for clues. Throughout the marathon's several commercial breaks, Cartoon Network aired special bumpers, featuring spliced together footage of Kids Next Door characters interacting with characters from the other shows. Numbuh 1 stayed at the Treehouse, while Numbuhs 2 through 5 traveled "into" the other shows. | The main theme of the marathon was that the KND needed to build a satellite, and had to look at the other shows for clues.

The main theme of the marathon was that the KND needed to build a satellite, and had to look at the other shows for clues.

Numbuh 1 stayed at the Treehouse, while Numbuhs 2 through 5 traveled "into" the other shows.
