Mission Mania” is the 6th episode in Season 4 of Lab Rats: Bionic Island. It first aired on April 15, 2015. This is the 78th episode overall. It features the last appearance of Spin.

Plot[]

Feeling left out when no one recognizes him as the fourth member of the bionic team, Leo does his own self-promotion, resulting in more mission alerts than the team can handle. Meanwhile, Spin and Bob try to help Douglas come up with an invention that is less destructive, but they don't help much.  

Story[]

The episode starts when Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo are on a mission to save people from a wildfire. When the people start to chant "Adam, Bree and Chase!", Leo gets jealous and whats to become known. Douglas gets put in charge to develop new technology for the academy but can only come up with things that can hurt the students. He gets an idea for a 'Lie Chair' that can tell if people are lying and if they are, the chair spins at mach 3. After, Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo get a mission alert but arriving at the site, they find a old lady who claims her cat ran up a tree, but it's a raccoon and her cat is on the ground next to her. Then 5 more mission alerts come up. Back at the Academy, after 15 straight missions and none of which were actual emergencies, Adam, Bree and Chase find out that Leo had made 10,000 business cards and made a commercial in Spanish and English. Getting mission alerts from all over the country, Chase decides not to go because at least half of the alerts are not emergencies. Leo feels he needs to fulfill his promises and save people so he goes on a mission alone. As Bob continues to drive Douglas crazy, he and Spin see all the mission alerts and start answering calls. Arriving at the mission, Leo finds a helicopter about to fall over a side of a building and pulls the end back down but its too heavy so he ends up dangling from the tail. Calling Bob for help, he gets put on a 20-minute hold. Adam starts to help Bob and Spin answer calls and picks up Leo's second call but hangs up. Chase finds out from Adam that Leo called in and rushes to the site of Leo's call. Arriving with Adam and Bree, Chase stabilizes the helicopter and Adam grabs Leo while Bree super speeds passengers out but when she goes back to check if anyone else is in it, her suit gets stuck and the helicopter starts to fall. Leo grabs hold of her just in time and realizes that it is not about fame, but it's about saving lives. Douglas uses the tech from the lie chair to create a useful device that tells if the mission alerts are real or not.

    • He wants to be on Donald's good side so he attempted to make weapons that would impress him. At first, all of his inventions were dangerous. However, he invented a new system for the mission alerts, which would hopefully earn him a place at the academy.
