Transcript[]
(in the training area)
Chase: All right, listen up, guys. We're introducing a new element to training-- the bionic battle. Each week, two of you will be pitted against each other in a physical challenge.
Spin: To the death?
Leo: (sarcastically) Yes, Big D built this multi-million-dollar facility to train and house you just so we could pick you off one by one.
Chase: So each week's winner will earn points toward advancing to the next bionic skill level. And the loser gets...well, humiliated.
Bree: Spin, since you're the youngest, you get to choose an opponent first.
Spin: Yes! Scared? Ya should be.
Chase: No, no. This isn't about scaring people. No one's going to get hurt
(a basketball is thrown at Chase's back from offscreen)
Chase: Ow!
(Chase and Bree walk into the common area to find Adam, Bob, and other students shooting hoops)
Chase: What are you doing?
Bob: We're throwing this thing at that thing. I'm an athlete.
Bree: Adam, you're a mentor now. You have to start acting like one.
Adam: I am. We're supposed to teach them how to use their abilities. So...we're havin' a bionic slam dunk contest.
Bob: Incoming!
Chase: Whoa!
(Bob jumps to the basket with the ball and hangs up from the net)
Bree: Bob, get down from there!
Bob: Sorry, little lady. No can do.
Bree: Why not?
Bob: Because I'm afraid of heights!
Chase: But you can levitate.
Bob: Oh, I'm good going up. It's the going down part that never ends well.
Chase: I'll have to use my molecular kinesis to get him down.
Bree: Or you could just use a ladder.
(Chase walks offscreen and Bob is heard screaming as he falls on top of Chase and the hoop falls on both of them)
Adam: I don't know what you're talking about, Bob. That ended very well.
(theme song plays)
...
(in the training common area)
Donald (on the phone) Okay, Tasha. I-- I got it honey. Okay, now you're just growling. (hangs up)
Bree: Trouble in paradise?
Donald I've just been so busy with the academy, I haven't been able to spend any time with Tasha.
Adam: And she's complaining about that?
Chase: Hey, Mr. Davenport, why don't you go back to Mission Creek for a couple of days? We can handle things here.
Donald Thanks, but there's too much going on here. Tasha will just have to wait.
(Leo walks in)
Leo: Hey, Big D, what are you and Mom doing for your anniversary tonight?
Donald: (chuckles) Anniversary. (gasps loudly) I'll call you from the mainland! (runs out of the room)
...
(in the common area)
Adam: Hey, is Mr. Davenport gone yet?
Chase: Yep. The hydraloop just left.
Adam: Good, 'cause the party train just arrived.
(Adam and Bob do a chest bump and Bob is knocked to the floor)
Adam: Oh, sorry, dude. (helps him up)
Bob; It's cool. I'm a beast!
Adam: (laughs) All right. Who's get ready to do some things we'll regret.
(the students cheer)
Bree: Adam! We're supposed to be responsible.
Adam: Look, we're supposed to teach them life lessons and today's life lesson is about doing things we can't do when Mr. Davenport is here. Right, Bob?
Bob: Right.
(Adam and Bob chest bump again and Bob is knocked to the floor)
Chase: Adam, Mr. Davenport left us in charge. We're not just goofing around.
Adam: All right, well, I'm in charge, too, and I say we are. Bob. These are the moments that define us. The moments that prove we are men. Now let's go have a belly flop contest!
(the students cheer again)
Bob: Adam, you're the best mentor ever. When I grow up, I want to be just like you.
Adam: Then who would I be?
...
(in the common area)
(Leo and Janelle arrive via the hydraloop)
Leo: Welcome to paradise.
Janelle: You said we were going to Hawaii.
Leo: We did. We went right under it.
(Bree and Chase walk over)
Chase: Leo, what do you think you're doing?
Leo: Well, since Big D is off taking care of his lady, I invited mine down for a little island vacation.
Chase: This isn't a vacation resort.
(a couple students walk by with pool noodles, towels, and a beach ball)
Bree: Leo, Mr. Davenport is counting on us to work while he's away. Just help us out.
Leo: I would love to help, but that sounds like a mentor problem, and I'm just a student. Ta-ta.
(Bree and Chase walk away)
Janelle: Wait. You're just a student? I thought you said you were a teacher.
Leo: (laughing) I am. Hey, look, there's one of my students now.
(Leo walks over to Spin)
Spin: What? I'm not your student.
Leo: Ah. Children. What he's trying to say is we don't use labels here.
Spin: No, what I'm trying to say is we're ranked by colors. You're yellow. That's the lowest. (to Janelle) You're scraping the bottom of the barrel, sweetheart.
Leo: I see what's going on. You're just talking smack because you're tired of living in my shadow. I'd be jealous of me, too.
Spin: Jealous? You're the one guy here who makes me feel better about myself.
Leo: Okay, little boy. I don't have time for your games.
Spin: Oh, it's not a game. This just got real. 'Cause I choose you as my opponent for the first bionic battle.
(all the students exclaim in the background)
Leo: Me?
Spin: Yeah, you. Unless, of course, you don't want me to embarrass you in front of your girlfriend.
Janelle: Girlfriend? Just to clarify, I'm not his...Well, he's not my...Because, like, we don't...Like he said, we don't use labels here.
Leo: You know what? I accept your challenge. The battle is on.
Janelle: Great. While you two have your little showdown, I'll just sit alone on the beach.
Leo: Janelle, that is not going to happen. (pauses) We don't have a beach.
...
(in the common area)
Adam: Hey, has anyone seen Bob? Short, blonde, looks like a Bob.
Bree: I thought you were mentoring him in the fine art of belly flopping?
Adam: I was, but I haven't seen him since he took out that swordfish.
Chase: (alarmed) You lost him in the ocean?
Adam: No, in the cafeteria. It's Seafood Sunday.
Sebastian: That's strange. I'm not getting any trace of Bob on my bionic beacon.
Bree: So what are we gonna do?
Chase: I don't know. But I'm not about to lose a man on my watch.
Adam: Forget about the man on your watch. We have to find Bob!
...
(in the training area)
Leo: (stretching) Yeah.
Janelle: That's a lot stretching.
Leo: I got a lot of muscles.
Janelle: Yeah, I'm sure they're in there somewhere.
(a bell rings)
Students: (chanting) Battle, battle, battle, battle.
Spin: You're goin' down.
Leo: I'm gonna have to. It's the only way I can see you eye to eye. Ha!
(Spin uses rapid gyration ability to knock Leo to the floor)
Students: Oh!
Leo: Ow!
Spin: Now you can look me right in the knee.
Leo: Oh, now you're really gonna get it.
Spin: You got nothin'.
(Leo charges at Spin while screaming, and then fires a laser sphere at him, knocking Spin to the floor)
Janelle: Leo!
Spin: What'd you do that for?
Leo: To show you who's boss.
Janelle: He's just a little kid.
Leo: He is not a little kid. He is three feet of evil. Oh, what are you gonna do, cry?
(Spin looks back and forth and then starts to fake cry)
Leo: No, no. No, no, no, don't cry. No.
Janelle: How could you do that to him?
Spin: Yeah. I'm just a child.
Leo: Oh, no, that is my bit. Don't you steal my bit.
Janelle: Are you happy? You just took down a ten-year-old.
Leo: Oh, he is not ten. (pauses) Are you ten?
Janelle: Here, let me help you up. Are you okay?
Spin: I think so. But I'm just trying to understand why someone would do that to another human being.
Janelle: Hey, I know what will make you feel better. How about a smoothie?
Spin: With sprinkles?
Janelle: Yep.
Spin: And whipped cream?
Janelle: Yep.
Spin: And love?
Janelle: (draws a heart in the air awkwardly) Sure.
Spin: Thanks for being so nice to me. It almost takes away the pain of what he did.
Leo: I'd like a smoothie.
Janelle: No.
...
(in the common area)
Sebastian: Did you find Bob?
Adam: No, but I was thinking. What if we're the ones who are lost and Bob is looking for us? This is getting weird. It is not like Bob to just disappear. And I should know, we've been best friends for two days.
(a video call of Bob pops up on the screen)
Bob: Hello? Is this Pizza Planet?
Chase: Bob?
Bob: Oh, hey, guys. I must've dialed the wrong number. But while I got ya, wanna go halfsies on a peperoni?
Chase: Are you on a plane? Is that Mr. Davenport's jet?!
Bob: I hope so. His picture's all over it.
Sebastian: Bob, what made you think you could take Mr. Davenport's plane?
Bob: 'Cause Adam said we were supposed to do all the stuff we can't do when Mr. Davenport is there.
Adam: I did say that, but in my defense, I only meant to think it.
Bob: I was going to surprise you with your favorite pizza from Mission Creek. So...surprise!
Adam: Aw. Hey, when he gets back, act surprised.
Bree: How is he even flying that thing?
Chase: It's a self-flying jet. As long as he doesn't disengage the auto pilot, he'll be totally--
Bob: What does this button do? (presses button and starts screaming)
Bree: Wai-- what just happened?
Chase: He disengaged the auto pilot! The plane is in a freefall.
Adam: (chuckles) Classic Bob.
Chase: Okay, Bob, I need you to rotate the stick to level out the plane.
Bob: Okay.
Chase: Now I want you to reactivate the auto pilot by pushing the two red buttons on the panel next to you.
Bob: I don't see any red buttons. Only green ones.
Chase: Green? There are no green buttons.
Sebastian: Would now be a bad time to tell you Bob is color-blind?
Chase: (to Adam) This is all your fault!
Adam: How is it my fault Bob's color-blind?
Chase: This is what happens when you're not a responsible mentor.
Adam: I'm very responsible.
(Adam and Chase start arguing indistinctively)
Bree: Guys! Stop fighting! We have to figure out a plan to save Bob before it's too late. He's our responsibility.
Sebastian: She's right.
Bree: Well, thanks for backing me up.
Sebastian: Thanks for having such lovely hair. Maybe I can hack into Mr. Davenport's mainframe and try to override the auto pilot from here.
Bree: Well, that's an awesome idea.
Sebastian: Thanks.
(Sebastian and Bree start laughing and talking to each other)
Chase: (to Adam) Great. Now we're dealing with two disasters.
...
(in the training area)
Janelle: Can I get you anything else?
Spin: Well, I sure could use some self-esteem.
Janelle: How about I go get you a snack, okay?
Spin: Okay, but don't keep me waiting too long.
(Janelle leaves the room and Leo walks in behind Spin)
Spin: Oh, yeah. (drops crutches) I got that girl trapped in the Spin cycle.
Leo: What are you doing?
Spin: Help, help! (picks up crutches) The bad man is back!
Leo: You're faking.
Spin: Hey, you made me look like an idiot. Now I'm gonna make you look like one. To be fair, it's not so hard.
(Janelle walks back in)
Leo: Janelle, I think there's something you need to see.
Janelle: What now? You gonna steal his lunch money?
(Leo grabs one of Spin's crutches and Spin leans on Janelle for support)
Janelle: Leo!
Spin: Leo!
Leo: He's not really hurt. He's just using you for sympathy.
Janelle: What?
Spin: I get it. You won the challenge. Isn't that enough?
Leo: Come on. Give me that! (grabs Spin's other crutch)
Spin: No!
(Spin falls to the ground and Janelle gasps)
Janelle: Leo, what has gotten into you?!
Leo: I just saw him. He is fine. He does not need crutches.
Janelle: You're right, he doesn't. Let's go, Spin. You're comin' with me. (picks Spin up)
Spin: Oh, the pain.
(Janelle carries Spin out of the room and Spin smirks at Leo just as they leave)
...
(in the common area)
Chase: Hang on, Bob. We're trying to reactivate the auto pilot from here.
Bob: The altitude thing is flashing "danger." What does that mean?
Bree: It means you're in danger!
Bob: Are we talking good danger or bad danger?
Adam: Guys, we're running out of time.
Sebastian: Don't worry. I hacked into the jet. (leans over to Bree) All I have to do is press this button, the auto pilot will be back up in no time.
(Sebastian presses button while staring at Bree and the video call with Bob is disconnected)
Bree: Uh, where did he go?
Sebastian: Oh, no! I must've hit the wrong button.
Chase: Maybe because you're staring at my sister! You just disabled communications with the jet.
Adam: (chuckling) Classic Sebastian.
(a video call with Donald pops up on the screen)
Adam: Bob, what happened? You look awful.
Chase: (hits him) Uh, hey there, Mr. Davenport.
Donald: Any kids missing yet? (the four of them look at each other) I'm kidding.
(Adam. Bree, Chase, and Sebastian start laughing nervously)
Bree: Oh, this one with the jokes.
Donald: Look, I just wanted to check in and make sure everything is running smoothly. It is running smoothly, isn't it?
Chase: Yep, real smooth. Uh, hope your anniversary's going well.
Donald: It's great. I just made this rosemary chicken--
Chase: Yeah, yeah, yeah, chicken. Have a nice dinner. (hangs up)
...
(in the training area)
Leo: (holding tablet) Joke's over, mini man. You need to tell Janelle the truth.
Spin: Sure. I'll say whatever you want, as soon as you stop filming me with that tablet.
Leo: What? That's ridiculous. I'm--
Spin: (grabs tablet) Uh-huh. (smashes it on the floor)
Leo: You could've just deleted it.
Spin: Nice try, Leo. (Janelle walks in behind him) I may be fakin' it, but I got your girlfriend wrapped around my little bionic finger. (turns around to see Janelle) Aah!
Janelle: You lied to me.
Spin: Lying's such a strong word.
Janelle: I picked you up. I sang you to sleep. I fed you with a spoon.
Leo: (laughing) Oh, this is great. Front row seats.
Janelle: Oh, you're in trouble too, mister.
Leo: What did I do?
Janelle: All I wanted was a relaxing vacation, but you ruined it with your little grudge match.
Leo: At least I kicked his butt.
Spin: Because I let you.
Leo: You wanna go again right now?
Janelle: Hey, enough!
Leo: Look, Janelle, I'm sorry. I just wanted to impress you, and I got a little carried away.
Janelle: And you?
Spin: Uh...(starts to fake cry) My leg...
Janelle: Seriously?
Spin: Okay, I'm sorry, too.
Janelle: Good. Now that that's settled, you two are gonna be my servants, and give me the vacation I deserve. (to Spin) Smoothie. (to Leo) Hammock. (claps hands) Double time. (leaves)
Spin: Wow.
Leo: Tell me about it.
Spin: Is she always like that?
Leo: No. Sometimes she's mean.
(on the jet)
Bob: Okay. Happy thoughts. Puppies and kittens. Puppies and kittens.
(a knock is heard from the outside of the cockpit)
Bob: Oh, I hope that's the flight attendant with my peanuts.
(Adam opens the door and walks into the cockpit)
Adam: Hey, Bob.
Bob: Adam? How did you get here?
Adam: Oh, I used Mr. Davenport's jet wing to fly up here and then I heat visioned a hole through the cargo area.
Bob: Cool. Where's the jet wing?
Adam: Oh, it wouldn't fit through the hole, so I ditched it and sent it plummeting to the ground.
Bob: That's what I would've done.
Adam: Hey, Bob, got a question for you.
Bob: Yeah.
Adam: (shaking him) What were you thinking taking this plane?
Bob: I thought you'd think I was cool.
Adam: Ahh! I do. Oh, Bob, I can't stay mad at you. Let's land this thing and call it a day. All right, Chase said a red button, red button.
(Adam presses a button and the plane starts falling again)
Adam: Wrong button, wrong button.
Bob: What are we gonna do?
Adam: Ah, we're goin' down, we gotta jump.
Bob: No, we don't.
Adam: Yes, we do.
Bob: No, we don't.
Adam: Yes, we do.
Bob: But I'm afraid of heights.
Adam: Don't worry, Bob. I'll get you through it. This is nothing. And when it's over, we'll laugh about it. If we survive.
(Bob starts screaming again)
(scene changes and Adam and Bob are standing in an open doorway to the outside of the jet)
Adam: Here, hold my parachute while I adjust yours. Trust me, Bob. You can do this. You just gotta believe in yourself.
Bob: You're right. I can do this. I can do this. I can't do this.
Adam: You can do this. In the past 24 hours, you face planted off a basketball rim, and belly flopped onto a jagged coral reef. Bob, you're a beast.
Bob: You're right. I'm a beast!
Adam: You can do this!
Bob: I can do this!
(Bob jumps off the jet screaming, while still holding Adam's parachute)
Adam: That's the spirit. Hey! You took my parachute. Wait up! (jumps off jet)
...
(in the living room of the Davenport household)
(Donald is setting the table for his anniversary dinner with Tasha)
Donald: (calls up the stairs) Tasha, dinner's ready!
(Adam crashes through the roof and breaks the glass dining table)
Donald: Ah! Adam?!
Adam: Whoo-hoo! I'm alive!
Donald: (yelling) Not for long!
Bob: (offscreen) Look at below!
(Bob lands softly in the room, hanging from his parachute)
Donald: Bob?!
Bob: Oh. Hey, Mr. Davenport. Is that rosemary chicken?
Donald: It was!
...
(in the common area)
Donald: I am never leaving you guys in charge again.
Adam: Mr. Davenport, it's not their fault. It's mine. I was goofin' off, and the students thought it was okay to goof off, too. I...I should've been a better mentor.
Bob: Actually, Adam was a good mentor.
Donald: He was?
Chase: He was?
Adam: I was?
Bob: Yeah. When I was up in the jet, I didn't wanna jump, but Adam boosted my confidence, and helped me conquer my fear of heights.
Donald: Wow. I'm impressed, Adam.
Bree: Never thought I'd here those three words together.
Donald: What I don't understand is why you had to jump in the first place.
Adam: Hmm?
Donald: It's a smart plane. Even without the auto pilot, it has an emergency homing beacon that allows it to land automatically.
Bob: So we jumped for nothing?
Adam: Wait. Does you jet wing land itself too?
Donald: (through gritted teeth) No.
Bob: (laughing) Classic Adam.
