♪♪

I'm here, I'm here.

Bob, you're late again.

It's not my fault I overslept.

It's Bree's.

What?! How is it
my fault?

You keep showin' up
in my dreams.

What's up with youse?
Someone ask you to prom?

No.

But thanks for opening up
old wounds.

After countless hours
of research and development,

Douglas and I have
finally perfected

the most amazing bionic
operating system upgrade ever.

I woke up for this?

This upgrade is gonna be
like going from

motor scooters to jet engines.

It'll make all of your abilities
ten times more powerful.

An upgrade, huh?

Well, I'm not sure you can
make my leg any more powerful,

but go ahead;
give it a go.

Ha!

Sorry, Leo,
the upgrade only works

on people with bionic chips.

Be grateful you have
a bionic arm and a bionic leg.

That's all you're getting.

At least until
your next horrific accident.

[ Fake laughter ]

Mr. Davenport, are you sure
that this new upgrade is safe?

I mean, some of our students haven't
even mastered their bionics

at the current level.

Yeah, Mr. Davenport,
I know you wanna give us

like, the coolest thing ever,

[ whining ]
but do you have to?

Don't worry.

I built in a skill app
that allows the students

to master their amped-up
abilities instantly.

Bottom line, this upgrade
is the best thing

that Donnie and I have
ever created together.

- I am so proud of you.
- No, I'm proud of you.

BOTH: I'm proud of you.

Hey, hey.

You know what'll
make us all proud?

If you two go back
to hating each other.

Stop, Bree.

You're embarrassing yourself.

Oh, sweet girl,
you don't have to beg.

I'll allow you to kiss me.

Okay, I'll wake him up.

Nope. I got this.

Hm. They actually make
a cute couple.

The world's first
bionic superhumans.

They're stronger than us.

Faster.
Smarter.

The next generation
of the human race is...

living on a bionic island.

How's it going with the upgrade?

I'll let you be the judge.

Go ahead, Jenny. Show him
how powerful you are now.

Wow!

That is powerful.

You just made an old man jump.

Well, that's the last
of the students.

Oh, great. I'll do
Adam, Bree and Chase.

Yeah, you do that,

and the guy who
really needs the upgrade

will just stand right over here

wishing he was
actually part of the family.

Don't worry, Leo.

I'm working on something
very special just for you.

Really?

How would you like to be
the proud owner

of the world's first
bionic nostril?

Bionic nostril?

You can't be serious.

I'm considering it;
we'll talk.

Okay, Adam, we'll do you first.

That's weird.
The upgrade's not taking.

It's probably
searching for his brain.

Bree, let's try you.

Chase.

I don't get it.

Why isn't the upgrade
working on any of them?

Probably because their bionics
are first generation.

We built the upgrade for the
students' infrastructure.

It must not be compatible
with their older systems.

There has to be some
way you can adapt it.

I can probably
work something out,

but given how old
your bionic architecture is,

I'll never be able to match
the power the students have.

Who's old now?

So let me get this straight.

They all just became
more powerful,

and we're stuck
like this forever?

Oh, my, that certainly
is a shame.

If all the students are
more advanced than we are,

then that means that
Adam, Bree and I are...

obsolete.

Here we go.

Douglas Davenport.

Officer Nichols.
[ chuckles ]

I haven't seen you
since I scaled that wall.

This your son?

Maybe. Can you tell me
what he did first,

and then I'll let you know?

He's been running all over town

sh**ting fire from his eyes.

Yeah, I've never seen him
before in my life.

He should be going to
juvenile detention,

but that's the last place
I want a punk with bionics,

so I'm giving him
another chance,

as long as you promise
to keep him under control.

Thank you, officer.

I can promise you
this won't happen again.

Good. 'Cause I don't want
to come back here again.

You machine people freak me out.

What were you thinking
letting him leave this academy

with his bionics activated?

He promised me
he wouldn't use 'em

unless it was
completely necessary.

Come on, you can't
give me bionics

and expect me not to use 'em.

He has a point.
When I first got my...

Quiet, Leo.

All righty then.

Do your adopted parents
know that you've been

causing trouble
with your bionics?

No. They don't get
this whole bionic thing.

That's why I asked
the officer to bring me here.

What are you gonna
do here, Douglas?

This is your first chance
to really step up

in this kid's life and be a dad.

You're right.

Daniel...

Meet your new dad.

Douglas.

Fine.

Look, since I can't
trust you to be responsible

with your bionics,

I guess we'll just
have to teach you

how to be responsible.

As long as your parents approve,

I'm enrolling you in
the Davenport Bionic Academy.

Really? Awesome.

And, since Leo has been doing

such a great job as
the academy's newest mentor,

I think it's only fitting

that he train
our newest student.

Thanks, Douglas.

No problem, buddy.

See, this way,
if it doesn't work out,

we can all blame you.

We've dedicated our entire lives

to being bionic heroes.

Now, we don't even matter.

Yeah. When you
think about it,

it's like we've been
training our own replacements.

Guys, what's with
the doom and gloom?

I'm actually okay with it.

In fact, I've been checking out
some retirement communities,

and they're awesome.
Look.

This one has railings
on the toilets.

Retirement?
No way. I'm a teenager.

I haven't even got
my driver's license yet.

Oh, don't worry,
you won't need it.

Most of these old folks'
homes don't even let you drive.

But get this.

There's a van that'll
take you to the market

twice a week.

We're not retiring.

I'm gonna figure out a way
to give us an upgrade.

And not only that.

I'm gonna make sure
it's even better

than everyone else's.

After all, I am
the smartest man in the world.

Not anymore, you has-been.

Whoa!

This place comes with people

who will change your pants.

Now that's easy living.

Okay, Daniel, since you
have bionic ability replication,

we'll start you off by touching
one of these students,

so that you can
take on their ability.

Okay.

Wait a minute.

This kid can just touch me,
and he'll be able to do

- everything I can do?
- That's right.

Well, here's my class schedule,

my chores, have at it.

I'm gonna go sleep until I'm 20.

- Bob!
- It was worth a sh*t.

Okay, Daniel, go ahead.

Great. Now you have
his bionic thunderclap.

Cool.

Not so hard.

Sorry.

Well, I can see
this is going well.

Daniel, you have to focus.

I am focusing.

But how am I supposed
to master my abilities

when I get a new one
every five minutes?

He does have a point.

Yeah. Too bad you can't
upgrade him like everyone else.

Then a skill app would
bring him up to speed instantly.

I can give him the upgrade,

but I'm not gonna.

Not till he shows me he can be
responsible with his bionics.

- But, Dad...
- End of discussion.

Now get back to your training.

I gotta be honest, Douglas.

This whole "you being
a dad" thing

is a little weird.

I know.
It's freakin' me out.

Okay, Daniel.
Touch Bob's arm.

But be careful.

I'm a fragile flower.

Great. Now let's see
how you do with super strength.

Okay.

- Bob!
- I know.

I can throw him much farther.
Let me try again.

Got it. If I reconfigure
the operator precedence,

that should fix the upgrade.

[ Computer beeping ]

You stupid hunk of junk!

You're useless!

Useless! Useless!

Do you mind?

This is a private moment
between a man and his computer.

Chase, have you seen
my students?

- Nope.
- Huh.

We were supposed to
start training an hour ago.

Today's lesson
is very important.

It's called "You're not
better than me."

Hey, has anybody seen Bob?

Leo said he was training
a little while ago,

but hasn't seen him since.

Now that I'm retiring,
I need to know

if he can play golf
with me on Thursdays.

Wait, no. First,
my students are missing,

and now Bob?

Something weird is going on.

I'm gonna go look for everyone.

Speaking of weird,
why are you wearing that?

The hat?
'Cause I'm a golfer.

The kilt.

Oh. Because somebody
changing my pants

is easy living.

This is what I call
breezy living.

Ugh!

Come on, Daniel.

Make your force field bigger.

- I'm trying.
- Concentrate.

It's kinda hard to concentrate

when you keep yelling
"Concentrate." Ah!

You know, this would be
a whole lot easier

if you just
gave me that upgrade.

No. You heard your dad.

He wants you to master your
bionics the old-fashioned way.

Okay.

But if my training's
not going well,

doesn't that say more about
you as a mentor

than me as a student?

Oh, please, Danny boy.

I invented that trick.

You play on a person's insecurities
and get what you want.

It's not going to work on me.

You're right.

I guess I'm just not ready
to be a bionic student.

Kinda like you're not ready
to be a bionic mentor.

All right, Daniel, let's see
how this upgrade works.

Well, that proves it.

I am a great mentor.

Hey, if you thought that
was cool, watch this.

How did you do that?

I didn't.

Then how did they all
just disappear?

I don't know.

But if anyone asks,
I'm blaming it on you.

Mr. Davenport,
we have a problem.

I can't find
my students anywhere.

Are you sure they're not just
avoiding your training session?

I mean, I've sat
through your class.

We all think you could
use a little pizzazz.

Big D., all the students
in the training area

- just vanished.
- What?

Bob's gone, too.

And I can't lose my Bob.

We have an 8:00 a.m.
tee time.

All right, everybody calm down.

There has to be
a logical explanation.

Or not.

Daniel!

Everybody's gone.

What are we gonna do?

What do you mean, we?

I'm retired.

I double-checked
the whole academy.

All the students are gone.

The new upgrade must've
caused a glitch

that made them geo-leap away.

Daniel disappeared, and we
didn't give him the upgrade.

Technically, that is correct.

You did not
give him the upgrade.

Leo!

That kid was impossible
to train.

And trust me, I happen to know

a thing or two about
slow learners.

I specifically told you
not to give him that upgrade.

Don't blame me.

You built the software
that made everyone disappear.

For the record,

Donnie had just as much
to do with this as I did.

If not more.
A lot more.

In fact, this whole thing
was his idea.

- It was not!
- Was too.

- No, it wasn't.
- [ both talking at once ]

Stop arguing.

We have to find them.

Although with them gone,
we are top dog again.

Do something!

Okay. I'll pull up
their GPS locators,

and find out where they are.

Nothing's coming up. Their signals
must have been deactivated.

Great. So now our brother and the
entire student body are missing,

and we have no idea
where they are.

They could be anywhere
in the world.

Where are we?

In a dark room with metal walls.

I can see that, Bob.

Then why'd you ask?

Wait. Maybe this is
another dream.

If I squint,
with your moppy hair,

you could easily pass for Bree.

It's okay, everyone.
I'm gonna get you outta here.

Daniel, they don't
even know you.

Let me give the pep talk.

Ignore what he said, guys.
We're hosed.

We gotta do something.

Bob, use your super strength
to try to break us out.

Okay.

Well, I'm a man of my word.

We're hosed.

Ooh, I know.

What if I replicate your
strength, and we try together?

Aw, that's cute when
you get all feisty.

I'm afraid your bionics
are useless here.

These walls block
your pathetic little chips.

Who are you?

I'm the woman
who's going to take out

all bionic superhumans
and replace them

with my android technology.

But you can call me Giselle.

Oh, thanks.

I never would've
remembered that first part.

How'd we get here?

I was finally able to hack in
to your chips remotely

and geo-leap you here.

Wait. Where are
Adam, Bree and Chase?

Probably still at the academy.

See, there was this whole thing
about how our bionics

are newer than theirs,

and they couldn't
get the upgrade,

and boy, were they upset.
Chase was like...

Stop talking.

What are you gonna do with us?

I'm gonna destroy you.

But first,
I'm gonna use you as bait.

Bob, we have to get
everyone out of here.

How?

Don't worry.
I have an idea.

I have tried every way possible

to remotely reactivate
their GPS locators,

and nothing is working.

Then we'll have to find them
the old-fashioned way.

Chase, map out an urban
search and rescue.

We'll go mile by mile,
state by state if we have to.

Mr. Davenport,
what if we're too late?

That glitch could've
geo-leaped them anywhere.

They could be at
the bottom of the ocean

or inside an active volcano.

They may already be gone.

We're not giving up.

Hello?

Daniel, where are you?

Listen, I don't have much time.

The lady hacked into our chips
and geo-leaped us here.

She had us trapped,
but I busted out.

Place looks familiar.

That's Giselle's lab.

Hey, what do you
think you're doing?

How did you escape?

Dad, hurry!

Say good-bye
to your son, Douglas.

Everybody suit up.

Adam, Bree, Chase and I
will go this way.

Douglas, you and Leo
take the other side.

- Guys!
- Daniel, you're okay.

Where are the students?

Hiding in the other room.

Come on.

Wow! Man.

This place is fancy.

Don't worry. I have the
name of her decorator.

- Really?
- No!

Where are they?

The doors are locking.

What's going on?

Well, well, well.

So nice to see
the family all together.

Giselle, you got
five seconds to tell me

where the rest of the kids are
before I blast you.

One thousand one.

One thousand two.

One thousand three,
one thousand four.

[ Gasps ]
There they are.

How is Daniel in there
and out here?

This is just like the last time
we were here with the two Chases.

This lady and her magic tricks.

She gets me every time.

It's a trap.

That's not my son.

That's where you're wrong.

I am your son,
just not the one you think.

Marcus?

Good to see ya...

Dad.

How's your plan coming along?

I'm trying to calm
them down with small talk,

but every time I ask
where they grew up,

they all say "I don't
know, I don't remember."

Where did you grow up, Bob?

I don't know.
I don't remember.

There. When I touch
these two wires together,

the force of the charge
should be enough

to blast a hole in the wall.

Sounds good.
You sure it'll work?

- Nope.
- I like those odds.

Daniel! Are you okay?

Talk to me.
What do you see?

I see an open field.

Blue skies.

[ Gasps ]
He's outside.

He escaped.

He's a genius.
