A trap was set off by Numbuh 19th Century when he retrieved the cake recipe.
The Alamode was a battle site for the 19th Century KND. It took place at the home of the Annoyingly Cute Triplets Who Lived Upon the Hill. The name is a parody of the Battle of the Alamo, a real-life historical event that took place from February 23 to March 6, 1836 in San Antonio, Texas. It is also a reference to the French term "à la mode", which means "on the side", and fittingly is often used to describe a dessert topped with ice cream.
The Battle[]

In the battle, 5,000 KND members stormed the area and sent Numbuh 19th Century inside to retrieve the ACTWLUTH's mother's recipe. However, once Numbuh 19th Century took it, it triggered a massive strawberry ice cream explosion, presumably freezing everyone within the explosion's blast radius. It took 10 years to get everyone out and, since they were all over 13, they were all decommissioned. The last member discovered was Numbuh 19th Century, who was freed in the 21st century. He then developed a crush - to be more specific, he was charming her into getting what he wanted - on Numbuh 86, but she still decommissioned him.
The Alamode Ruins[]
The Alamode is now a bunch of ruins, possibly old 2x4 technology, and the remnants ACTWLUTH's mansion. KND operatives go there before a dangerous mission. Numbuh 4 refers to it as "learning" and would rather be at school. It is now run by Numbuh 50 Million B.C..

Trivia[]
- In the 2x4 Technology Handbook, Numbuh 2 calls Numbuh 19th Century a Victorian operative. The Victorian Era didn't properly start until 1837. Since the beginning of Operation: C.A.K.E.D.-F.I.V.E. mentions that it was the early 19th century, it can be assumed that the Alamode took place between 1837 and 1840. However, if the Alamode is meant to coincide with the real-life Battle of the Alamo, that would put it in 1836.
- The joke of Numbuh 19th Century trying to remember what the Alamode was is likely in reference to the famous Texan saying "Remember the Alamo."
