00:00 Transmission from Super President Kickbutt.
00:03 Hello, Max. I'm calling for Phoebe.
00:06 Oh, sorry. Wrong number.
00:08 Madam President, how can I help you?
00:13 The Hero League has decided it's time to take your next big superhero step.
00:18 Oh, does it involve moving away?
00:20 Anyway, you've been accepted into our mentor program.
00:26 I'm sending over a list of approved superheroes who can take you under their wing
00:31 and teach you everything they know.
00:33 Choose one and report back.
00:35 President Kickbutt, out.
00:38 I can't believe this is happening!
00:43 I get to go to Metroburg to train with a legend.
00:47 Look who's on the mentor list!
00:51 Tech Rider!
00:55 He has so many awesome gadgets and look how many saves he's racked up!
01:00 Forget about the saves. He's got a super cycle that's so fast it'll turn your face inside out!
01:05 I must know how that feels.
01:08 Me too.
01:10 So, Phoebe...
01:13 It's pretty clear who you're going to choose. The guy's a superstar, right?
01:18 Monitor, call President Kickbutt.
01:20 Please hold for Super President Kickbutt.
01:25 Oh, Dad, guess what? I've been accepted into the Hero League mentor program.
01:29 Oh, honey, it's fantastic!
01:32 You know who's on that list?
01:35 Yeah, I do.
01:37 This is a dream come true! I finally get to mentor my own daughter!
01:43 Say what?
01:46 Keep it together, Hank. This is just the best day of your life.
01:53 That was quick. Have you made your decision already?
01:56 Yep. I'm choosing...
02:02 Thunder Man.
02:04 Thunder Man?!
02:06 I'm so happy!
02:10 Here come the super tears!
02:12 You all are crying too?
02:16 Yeah. We're just so happy.
02:20 I'm so happy!
02:22 I'm so happy!
02:25 I'm so happy!
02:26 What you see is not what you get
02:30 Living our lives with a secret
02:34 Fit right in, bet you never guess
02:37 We're living our lives just like the rest
02:41 A picture-perfect family is what we try to be
02:45 Look closer, you might see the crazy things we do
02:49 This isn't make-believe, it's our reality
02:53 Just your average family, it's fine to be normal
02:57 Stay out of trouble, living a double life
03:03 Ha ha! How exciting is this?
03:07 Thunder Man's gonna be in the tour!
03:10 One day, you will be able to do this!
03:15 I can't believe you picked Dad.
03:20 What was I supposed to do?
03:21 Not pick Dad.
03:22 I mean, I could have picked Dad.
03:24 Well, obviously you won't fly, but you will learn a lot.
03:29 Just not about super cycles.
03:32 To think, you could have been stuck with someone like Technical Rider Man.
03:38 He's just Tech Rider.
03:41 His super cycle and all his high-tech gizmos might look cool,
03:47 but they are no substitute for this.
03:50 A bad haircut?
03:52 No, a brain.
03:54 Whether you use super gadgets or super powers,
03:57 it's a superhero's best friend.
04:00 He does have a pretty amazing save record, Dad.
04:02 Ugh, and he's a swimsuit model, too.
04:05 Yeah, I've modeled before.
04:09 For bad haircuts?
04:11 Phoebe, we are gonna do great things together.
04:17 And Max, my hair used to look just like yours.
04:22 Think about that.
04:24 You know what?
04:28 Maybe training with Dad will be great.
04:31 Thunderman is the greatest superhero ever.
04:33 Was the greatest superhero ever.
04:35 Tech Rider's the man now.
04:37 And I know you feel the same way,
04:39 because you're riding Phoebe Hart's Tech Rider on your tablet.
04:45 Don't you have a bunny to Hart?
04:47 If she won't change her mentor,
04:52 then you're gonna have to do it for her.
04:54 How am I supposed to do that?
04:56 So, like, if it's okay,
05:04 I'd like to switch my mentor to Tech Rider.
05:07 Cool beans, OMG, look at my nails.
05:13 Max, I have a job to do.
05:15 And you are not pulling off that wig, girlfriend.
05:18 If I'm gonna get that super cycle,
05:24 I'm just gonna have to convince Phoebe to ask for Tech Rider herself.
05:27 Why are you dressing a girl's hoo?
05:33 Uh, it's 430.
05:35 It's gonna be cold today, guys,
05:42 so don't forget your jackets.
05:44 I lost mine.
05:45 Uh-oh!
05:47 Billy, that jacket was brand new.
05:51 Nora, I need your lunchbox.
05:53 I lost it.
05:54 Here comes a hammer.
05:57 Okay, you guys can't keep losing things.
06:01 Jackets and lunchboxes don't just grow in trees.
06:04 True, true.
06:05 So when he goes to the store,
06:07 can he buy me a lunchbox with a kitty on it?
06:10 No, I am not buying you a new lunchbox.
06:13 Or you a new jacket.
06:17 Okay, you guys are just gonna have to survive without them,
06:22 and then maybe you'll learn not to lose stuff.
06:24 Don't even think about it.
06:37 Welcome to the mean streets of Metroburg.
06:41 Very funny, Dad.
06:42 To the real Metroburg!
06:44 Away!
06:46 Away!
06:49 Sweetie, this driveway is our big city simulator.
06:54 It's all about preparation.
06:56 Now, as a crime fighter, you have to learn how to arrive at a scene,
06:59 assess the situation,
07:01 make the right call.
07:03 Okay.
07:05 I'm here.
07:06 The situation is ridiculous.
07:08 I'm going back inside.
07:09 Whoa, whoa, whoa.
07:10 Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe.
07:12 This is serious, all right?
07:13 Now, this bike represents a tanker truck that crashed
07:17 next to a bus full of kids stalled in a busy intersection.
07:21 What's the empty pizza box represent?
07:24 Well, your mom made meatloaf.
07:26 So, what do you do?
07:32 Um, I use my freeze breath on the tanker truck
07:36 so it doesn't explode,
07:38 and everyone lives happily ever after.
07:40 Almost.
07:41 You forgot to shut down the road.
07:43 Look, here comes an out-of-control cement truck.
07:46 I'm out of control, baby.
07:49 And you just caused a 12-car pileup.
08:01 You just got schooled.
08:03 Dad, I'm the protector of Hiddenville.
08:10 I think I'm passed for 10 cement trucks
08:12 and trash-talking toddlers.
08:14 Eh, eh, eh, eh.
08:15 Mentor, mentee.
08:19 Now, what's next?
08:21 Ooh, ooh, ooh, small-town tornado.
08:23 Okay, I'm just gonna get some fans and, ooh,
08:26 milk cartons to represent flying cows.
08:30 Poor, poor Phoebe.
08:34 Dad's never gonna take you to Metroburg.
08:36 You don't know that.
08:38 I stole his training schedule.
08:39 You do know that.
08:41 What?
08:45 After two weeks in the driveway,
08:47 I graduate to the attic?
08:49 The only crime up there is humidity.
08:51 My hair's gonna be a mess.
08:57 Oh, would you look at that.
09:00 Tech writer just took down some bank robbers.
09:04 But don't you worry.
09:06 Battling frizzy hair in the attic sounds a lot more fun.
09:11 Uh, Phoebe Thunderman for President Kickbutt, please.
09:24 ( music playing )
09:27 I don't understand fashion.
09:34 Mom's making us use this stuff now
09:37 because Billy lost his jacket and I lost my lunchbox.
09:40 You kids are just like your mom.
09:42 She lost her phone this morning.
09:44 Between you and me,
09:46 the woman would lose her head if it wasn't screwed on.
09:50 Oh, hey, honey.
09:52 Your head looks beautiful.
09:55 Aw, look at my little garbage cans.
10:00 Here, I need a picture.
10:03 Send me a copy.
10:09 Oh, my gosh, how could she?
10:11 Well, she could e-mail it, text it.
10:14 It's actually kind of easy.
10:17 Not the picture.
10:19 She has a new phone.
10:21 She already replaced the one she lost.
10:24 Well, that's not fair.
10:26 She won't replace the stuff we lost.
10:28 We need to teach her a lesson.
10:30 And then we'll teach you how to e-mail and text.
10:34 Oh, there you are.
10:41 Okay, Phoebe, Mr. Sprinkles over there
10:43 is biting through the gas line.
10:45 You're only gonna have seconds before--
10:47 Um, I have to tell you something.
10:50 I spoke to President Kickbite yesterday.
10:53 We actually came up with a way to make my mentorship better.
10:57 Oh, what could be any better than this?
11:13 Heard somebody needs a new mentor.
11:17 Tech writer?
11:19 That's how it gets better.
11:21 So you called President Kickbite
11:27 and had me replaced with this pimply-faced kid?
11:31 Dad, he has perfect skin.
11:34 Let me see what I want to see.
11:37 The Hero League said this mentorship program
11:39 is supposed to be for on-the-job training.
11:42 Not on-the-driveway training.
11:45 So you think you're ready to zip off to Metroburg on this--
11:48 Supercycle!
11:50 Sorry, buddy.
11:54 No one goes near the Supercycle.
11:57 It's okay.
12:01 Seeing it from the ground with a slight head wound
12:03 is just as rewarding.
12:06 Thunder Man!
12:08 It is an honor to meet you.
12:11 I was actually lucky enough to be
12:13 at your retirement celebration in Metroburg.
12:16 See, Dad? He's not so bad. He's a fan.
12:19 Yeah! My folks said I slept through the whole thing in my stroller,
12:22 but, hey, I was there, right?
12:25 May I?
12:26 May you what?
12:27 Drone selfie!
12:29 So Hero League tells me you've cost them a fortune
12:36 mopping up the aftermath of your reckless behavior.
12:39 Sometimes you gotta destroy a whole city to save it.
12:43 You know what I'm saying?
12:45 No.
12:47 You are a riot, T-Man.
12:49 I'm gonna have my people sing you some swag.
12:52 Brenda!
12:53 Send my new buddy Thunder Man a Tech Rider hat.
12:57 He's got some weird hair.
13:00 Listen, kid.
13:02 Sorry you came all this way on your little scooter,
13:06 but after this little show,
13:08 I'm sure my daughter's changed her mind
13:10 about all this tech nonsense.
13:12 Ooh, what's a nano-stun grenade?
13:15 Aw.
13:19 What a cute little marble.
13:21 Stunned him!
13:29 Good one, rookie.
13:30 Let's go rack up some saves in Metroburg!
13:37 Hi, T-Man!
13:38 Kinda blind right now, but...
13:51 Can I feel the look on your face?
13:53 Oh.
13:56 Oh, yeah.
13:57 You're much more stunned than I am.
14:00 I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine.
14:02 This is all part of the mentoring process.
14:05 I'm mentoring her by letting her go.
14:08 You really believe that?
14:10 Let me believe what I want to believe!
14:12 I don't know if I'm smelling exhaust or failure.
14:18 Well, I didn't fail, my friend.
14:21 While T-Man and Jerk Rider were taking a selfie,
14:24 I snuck over to the Super Cycle
14:27 and put a remote control on it.
14:29 Then on my way back,
14:30 I did what every supervillain does.
14:33 I crop-dusted them.
14:35 Now, just wait for the right moment
14:41 to activate my remote control
14:43 and drive it back to its new daddy, me.
14:46 I call first ride!
14:49 Where'd you buy that outfit?
14:51 You don't buy something like this, Max.
14:54 You earn it.
14:56 Mom's sunglasses, her shoes, her purse.
15:02 She's gonna think she lost all this stuff,
15:04 and when she replaces them like her phone,
15:07 we'll bust her.
15:09 It's okay, Hank.
15:10 Maybe I left it downstairs.
15:12 She's coming! Quick, hide everything!
15:15 Did you lose something, Mom?
15:25 Uh, no.
15:27 I am just looking for...
15:30 (whimpers)
15:33 Hey, Mom, can I borrow your sneakers?
15:38 I'm doing a school report on women's footwear.
15:41 Uh, you know, maybe later.
15:43 I just--I have to go run some errands.
15:45 And your slippers?
15:47 Uh...
15:49 It's what all the moms are doing now,
15:51 so put that in your report, huh?
15:54 Bye!
15:56 (engine revving)
15:59 That was awesome!
16:06 Right, Phoebe?
16:08 Phoebe!
16:10 Okay.
16:13 Next time you do a wheelie,
16:15 can I get a little heads up?
16:17 I'll hold on tighter.
16:20 Learning lessons!
16:22 Lessons up top!
16:25 I have five of you, but my hands are full of gravel.
16:29 I got you covered!
16:31 Whoo!
16:33 All righty.
16:34 Looks like it's your lucky day, rookie.
16:36 We have got a big first mish!
16:39 That is what I call missioning.
16:41 It saves time.
16:43 Hey, learning from my ment!
16:45 Huh?
16:46 Mentor.
16:47 I was just saving time.
16:49 Never mind.
16:50 All right.
16:52 According to the Hero League,
16:53 we have got a prison break going down.
16:56 Let's do this! Whoo!
16:58 Wait, well, shouldn't we have a plan?
17:02 I guess they'll tell me inside.
17:04 Looks like they stopped.
17:10 Time to bring my new super cycle home.
17:14 Why isn't it working?
17:20 (clattering)
17:22 Oh, it's empty.
17:25 Where am I going to find 47 double-A batteries?
17:29 Colosso, how many batteries does your tanning bed take?
17:32 Don't you dare!
17:34 It's almost beach season.
17:36 Warning.
17:39 Escape attempt in progress.
17:42 All right, let's assess the situation.
17:47 Assess this.
17:49 I'm going to hit that thing with a sonic pulse.
17:51 Wait!
17:52 You hear that?
17:58 Yeah, I do.
17:59 That's the sound of me saving everyone's butt!
18:02 Not quite.
18:04 This place is made out of thundertanium.
18:06 It's indestructible, but it also amplifies sonic waves and--
18:10 That will happen.
18:16 (clattering)
18:18 Doris!
18:20 All right, Mentor Pop Quiz.
18:28 12 extremely shady prisoners staring you down.
18:31 What do you do?
18:32 By the way, this is a time-sensitive quiz.
18:35 I do this.
18:40 (screaming)
18:45 (screaming)
18:47 Now that's a 12-car pileup.
18:58 Oh!
19:02 I just mentor it up!
19:05 Drone selfie.
19:08 (laughing)
19:10 What's in the bag, Mom?
19:18 Just a few things I needed to pick up.
19:22 I'll bet you did.
19:24 Listen, there's something I need to tell you, too.
19:28 Oh, there's plenty you need to tell us.
19:31 Like, slippers were all the rage last season.
19:35 We know what you've been up to,
19:38 so we saw a bunch of your things,
19:40 knowing you just go buy new ones.
19:42 New ones like these.
19:44 See? Sunglasses, shoes, a pocketbook, earrings,
19:52 another phone, a lunchbox,
19:55 a jacket for a tiny person.
19:58 Those for us.
20:01 Well, if you'd let me finish,
20:03 you'd know that I, too, lose things,
20:05 and I realized it wasn't right for me to replace my stuff
20:09 and not yours as well.
20:11 Well, thank you for clearing that up.
20:16 And you can rest assured that we won't hold it against you.
20:20 Come on, Billy.
20:21 No, no, no, not so fast, okay?
20:23 You, too, stole a bunch of my stuff,
20:25 and you tried to trick me.
20:27 Two weeks' dish duty.
20:29 Or you walk away from this
20:32 knowing you have two of everything,
20:34 and we don't tell Dad.
20:36 You can't negotiate.
20:38 I am the mom.
20:40 One week's dish duty,
20:45 and I get to keep all the phones.
20:47 Deal.
20:48 What just happened in there?
20:55 I taught you how to go from zero to awesome
20:59 in 2.8 seconds up top!
21:01 When we got here, there was one bad guy trying to escape,
21:05 and thanks to your 2.8 seconds,
21:07 I had to step in and capture 12.
21:09 I'm not gonna lie, rookie.
21:13 You were amazing in there,
21:15 which means I'm an incredible mentor.
21:17 Now, hop on,
21:21 because I feel like doing a victory wheelie tech ride!
21:25 No.
21:27 I'm going home.
21:28 This was a mistake.
21:30 And you can hop on.
21:31 I'm in front now.
21:33 Whoa.
21:36 Did you turn this thing on?
21:37 Hey!
21:45 Get back here!
21:47 I will not go back to being Tech Walker!
21:51 Tech Walker shoes, activate.
21:55 There it is.
22:04 The super cycle's on its way home.
22:06 Thanks for the new batteries.
22:08 Don't thank me.
22:10 Thank Chloe.
22:18 You are a monster.
22:20 I wish I could have seen Phoebe's face
22:26 when this thing took off with nobody on it.
22:28 Why won't this thing stop?
22:33 Super cycle, I command you to turn left.
22:36 Oh!
22:37 You're right!
22:38 That's right.
22:41 Come to papa.
22:43 Whoa, that looks fun.
22:45 Let me try.
22:46 Hey, close up my remote.
22:48 Come on, share.
22:50 My face is turning inside out!
22:54 Let go!
22:56 No, you let go.
22:57 Oh, no!
23:01 The super cycle!
23:02 I think it's heading for that cliff.
23:04 I'm heading for X-Cliff!
23:08 My super cycle!
23:11 (screaming)
23:13 Dad, thank you.
23:29 Wait, where'd you come from?
23:36 I've been keeping an eye on you.
23:39 Not because I don't trust you.
23:42 Because I didn't trust Tech Rider.
23:45 You were right.
23:46 He is reckless.
23:48 I was just so caught up in his super cycle
23:52 and his super gadgets
23:54 and his super smooth skin.
23:56 I hate to admit it, but his skin does glow.
24:00 Dad, I never should have replaced you.
24:03 I'm sorry.
24:05 I understand.
24:06 My methods can be old-fashioned.
24:08 Are you kidding me?
24:10 I used everything you taught me at the prison
24:12 and that's what saved the day.
24:14 I can't wait for our next lesson.
24:16 Are you saying you want me to be your mentor again?
24:21 I'm saying today made me realize
24:24 a mentor is a person you look up to and learn from.
24:29 That person's always been you.
24:31 So, can I call President Kick-Bud and make it official?
24:37 Again?
24:38 Nothing would make me prouder.
24:41 Perfect, Chloe.
24:46 Now, I think the super cycle disappeared from my radar somewhere around...
24:51 Speaking of being proud...
24:53 Oh!
24:55 Hey, guys.
24:57 Chloe and I were just leaving.
25:01 Quick, go home, Chloe.
25:03 This is for stealing my batteries.
25:07 Any chance you two saw a runaway motorcycle around here?
25:12 Thunder Man!
25:15 Away!
25:17 I guess I'm walking.
25:20 On your left!
25:23 You are li--
