As Adam, Bree, and Chase become celebrities, fame begins to tear them apart. The friction among the group becomes evident when a reality show follows them on a mission and things don't go well.

Story[]

Part 1[]

Leo arrives at the household to give Adam, Bree, and Chase some interesting news. He brought home magazines that have incorrect info on the bionic team. Bree and Chase are upset, but it seems that Adam likes it, because it has things about him. They try to fix it by planning to gain good publicity by having a camera crew film them during a mission, which was to stop a power surge. However, it turns to disaster when they fight for screen time. Meanwhile, Perry gives Bionic House tours to gain money because the Davenports won't let her steal stuff. However, Leo gets Perry and the tourist to leave by threatening his principle that he'll call the police and her parole officer for trespassing his home. Adam, Bree and Chase failing the mission sends the world into total darkness, leading America and the rest of the world to turn against them.

The President orders the team to stay away from the public in order to let him settle things down. Meanwhile, Leo and Perry are holding back angry protesters, who want Adam, Bree, and Chase gone, but things take a turn for the worst when Leo accidentally uses his bionic arm. As the protesters become even more enraged, they try to storm the house, and Adam panics when he sees Leo endanger and uses his bionic super breath to blow everyone off the premises. This causes the world to become fearful of bionic humans all over again. Donald scolds Leo for using bionic arm but drops it when Chase tells him to never mind him as he understands that he didn't use it on purpose.

Chase scolds Adam for attcking the protesters as he defends himself by telling him that he wasn't trying to hurt them and was only defending Leo. Bree tells Adam that his attempts to protect Leo sent the protestors to the hospital. Chase then tells Adam that he's an idoit and he bounces back by telling his brother that they won't be any proestors if he did his job right, which causes a fight bewteen the three siblings. However, the fight gets worse when Chase and Bree remind each other of their past actions, but Donald angrily snaps at them to stop and tells them that something has to change, which they agreed. Thinking that the world doesn't need them anymore and had enough of each other, they decided to break up the team, although Donald tried to talk them out of it but to no avial.

Part 2[]

Three weeks later, Adam, Bree and Chase are shown to not be talking to each other, and acting normal with their bionics. Through quitting the team, Donald doesn't care what Adam, Bree and Chase do as two of them decided to take a vacation. While Bree and Chase go shopping, Leo gets Adam out of the house as well when he tells him that Chase wanted to tell him something then punches him as he heads out in order to get his payback against his brother. While the siblings are out, Douglas tells Donald that the President has contacted him as he informs him about communications equipment being stolen from the local military base. At first, Donald asked the President that he needs his technology to help him but he tells him no as he needs Adam Bree and Chase. However, Donald reminds him that they quit the team but the President informs him that the safety of the world is more important than a sibling argument and to get the team back on the job.

Donald brings Adam, Bree and Chase together as he informs them that the President called about an emergency and he needs them but they refused because they don't want to work together and think that the world is better off without them. However, upon realizing that Krane is behind the theft through his Triton App, they agree to the mission, but make it clear that they are done when it's over. After finding Krane's soldier, they realized his plans as he wants to use his Triton app on everyone in the world. A large battle ensues pitting the Lab Rats, Donald, Douglas, and Leo versus Krane and his bionic army. Soon, however, although the Lab Rats manage to hold back many of the soldiers, they are running out of time to stop Krane and his Triton App. Douglas then reveals that Adam, Bree, and Chase can fuse their abilities to stop Krane, and they succeed. The soldiers are no longer controlled by Krane, who's been blasted far away, which caused them to drop like flies. Having reconciled with each other for their actions and remembering what's important about helping others, Chase, Adam, and Bree decided to be a team again. But their victory is cut short when they find Donald in serious condition, and later they find even after surgery Donald is still in very delicate condition.

Cut scenes[]

When this episode was split into two parts on Netflix and later Disney+, several scenes were cut to make room for the exclusive ending and credits in Part 1 and the recap and opening in Part 2.

  • The entire scene immediately after the Lab Rats disband, where Adam and Chase annoy Leo and Bree and Chase ask Donald for money, was cut. Part 1 immediately ends after they disband in the lab, while Part 2 immediately starts with Donald, Leo, and Douglas in the lab.
  • A few scenes of Donald and Douglas fighting the Bionic Army were cut.
  • When Bree takes out two female Bionic Soldiers, she makes a comment after doing so, which was cut.
  • After Chase takes out S-3, the latter says, "Gotta admit, I did not see that coming," after which Chase points his Laser Bo right in his face.
  • After Krane takes out Donald with his large energy ability, he runs over to his computer and tells his army, "Cover me while I check the signal."
  • After Douglas reveals himself hiding behind a barrel, he nervously says, "I'm not hiding, I'm picking berries to use as weapons. They could be poisonous!"
  • Before Chase asks Douglas how to activate the chip fusing ability, he says, "We only have two minutes left!", and after he asks the question, he, Bree, and Adam briefly argue about how they might not make it before coming to an agreement. Both of those lines were cut in the split version.
  • When Adam, Bree, and Chase walk through the army and meet Krane face-to-face, Krane says, "I think it's time we finish this, don't you?", which is cut.
  • A few scenes of the Lab Rats performing the chip fusing ability were cut, making it shorter.
  • When Adam, Bree, Chase, and Douglas celebrate Krane's defeat, Adam and Bree briefly make a consensus that they are a team again, which is cut.
  • When Leo yells, "Guys, get over here quick!", the camera is focused on Adam, Bree, Chase, and Douglas in the full-length version, while it is focused on Leo in the split version.

Aside from these scenes being cut, Part 1 contains a unique ending that is not present in the full-length version, where Perry returns all of the stolen items from the Davenport Household to Leo.
