03x01 - The Force Returns Part 1

[bunniefuu]

Previously, on "Danger Force"...

Ow!

My niece and nephew

are in Danger Force?

You two kidnapped a cop?

Do your parents know
what you kids do?

They have no idea, ma'am.

Well, how stupid can they be?

Have you ever actually built
a memory wiper before?

Huh. I don't remember.

- Aah!
- He didn't built you

a memory wiper...
He built you a truth ray.

It's time these Danger Force
kids tell the truth.

- My real name is M...
- My real name is C...

My real name is B...

So I guess this means...

You're out of Danger Force!

Wow. I really thought we
were gonna get out of this.

[groans]

It's been days,

and there's still no sign
of Danger Force.

[static buzzes]
Disappeared without a trace.

[static buzzes]
Rumors of their demise.

[static buzzes]
Captain Man appeals

for calm amidst rioting.

[static buzzes]
Where did they go?

What happened to Danger Force?

The Cell survives.

Long live the Cell.

He is coming.

Truly, he is coming.

Number , have you hacked

into the Man's Nest Network yet?

I'm sorry, Number One.

Their network
has a quantum encryption,

but I will cr*ck it.

Hurry.
Captain Man will gather them

to the Man's Nest soon,
and when he does,

we will strike.

- Are you sure he'll...
- Yes.

He is coming.

Long live the Cell.

Another great song
by the Sinister Quartet.

And speaking of quartets,
Danger Force is still

nowhere to be seen,
but Captain Man continues

to insist he has a great plan
to get the team back together.

[epic music]

[Southern accent] I say,
I say, uh, from what I gather

from talking to the headmaster
of SwAG...

Who, by the way, is an absolute
stud of a muffin, mm!

That handsome devil tells me

that your young'uns
are quite gifted.

Ray...

Yes, I do believe that is

the brawny-built billy's name.

[clearing throat]
Now, listen here.

I'd like to offer Mika,
uh, Miles, Chapa,

and even little old Bosey
a free education

at my live-in, dormitory-style,

overnight pre-college school
for gifted teens.

Ray, this is your third
character this week.

And none of us are buying
what you're selling.

[normally] Come on, Bose's
mom was thinking about it.

Oh, I wasn't thinking
about anything.

Goodbye, Ray.

Uh, uh, c-can I talk
to the dads, please?

Dads are stupid.
They'll fall for anything,

like "golf is a sport."

Their dads don't even know
they were in Danger Force.

Like I said, stupid.

And they're gonna
stay that way.

- We're hanging up now.
- Hey, listen!

Your kids are superheroes,
whether you like it or not,

and they're better off with me
than they are on their own.

All: Goodbye, Ray.

You know what?
You three used to be cool.

I'm disappointed.

[frustrated grunting]

Calm down, buddy!

I don't want to calm down.

I want to get Danger Force back!

I'm worried about them, Schwoz.

Who knows how they're gonna
turn out without me?

They're doing fine.

Bose is a baby goat herder.

Are you kidding me?

No.
He speaks fluent goat.

[goats bleating]

[bleats]

[goat bleats]

[bleating]

See, now that doesn't
sound too okay to me.

And didn't you tell me
that Miles started a cult?

Ah-ah-ah-ah.
Miles and his followers

don't use the C-word.

They prefer to think
of themselves as a...

Community of like-minded
individuals.

All: Yes, Master Miles.

A community of like-minded
individuals.

That's right.

All: Yes, Master Miles.

That's right.

Your path has led you to me.

All: Yes, Master Miles.

Our path has led us to you.

Where I... guess you'll just
repeat whatever I say.

All: Where youguess

we'll just repeat
whatever you say.

[sighs]

[all sigh]

That's just a cult.

And no, I don't need
your help with this.

You got it, bro.

I'm pretty sure Mika's
still fighting crime,

because, ha... Mika.

Yeah, that checks out.

Night-night, Mama.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, my God!

Now back in bed!

Night, honey.

Night-night, Mama.

What about Chapa,

Chapa got arrested,
like, times.

[camera shutter clicking]

Oh, wow.
That is cool.

Yeah, it's sick,
but if no one is there

to guide her to the good,

she naturally goes to the bad.

You don't like it

[doorbell rings]

Hi, Alejandra.

I am so sorry,

but I've got million
things to do today.

I've locked Mika inside of her
bedroom with some hamburgers.

Would you mind watching
my other kids?

I'm not a kid!

I'm a big, strong man

with big, strong feelings!

Right.

He's just tired.

My father wouldn't be so tired

if he was willing to submit
to the way of the peace.

Stop trying to make me
join your cult!

It's not a cult.

It's a community
of like-minded individuals.

Can you try dropping
them off with Bose's mom?

Celia?
I've been texting her all day,

and she hasn't responded.

Not even
with an inappropriate GIF?

- No!
- [gasps]

Right?

I'd worry more if I didn't have
million things to do.

Well, normally
I'd say I can help you,

but I have million
things to do today too,

and my husband has been
laying around all day.

Alejandro, you napping?

Correction,

we're napping.

I got juice boxes.

Dope!

[quirky music]

We've seen some stuff
in Danger Force,

but nothing as bad as this.

Moms.

That's right, Trent.

Moms are in the news
more than ever these days.

Not only do they have
million things to do,

but now they're...

Gone.

Including the trophy wife
of Swellview's own vice mayor,

second lady, Celia O'Brien
Pence Quayle Mondale Willard.

Your mom is missing?

I haven't seen her
or gotten an inappropriate GIF

from her in days.
You know what this means.

That your mom has been married

to five vice presidents?

She has a thing for vices.

They're her only vice.

But it also means

that we have a mission!

We're back, baby!

Danger Force on four!

One, two, three...

My brother in fights.

We are not back.

We're not allowed
to fight crime anymore.

We're not even allowed
to use our superpowers.

I know,
but we can't just sit here

and let Bose's mom stay missing.

What else are we gonna do?

I don't know, but...

Hey. I know we're not
supposed to hang

outside of school anymore,
but...

I haven't seen my mom in days.

[whispering] Also, I miss you.

Something's going on.

[whispering]
And we missed you too.

Bose's mom is also missing.

Hey, kids.

Hey, not my kids.

- Hey, Daddy!
- Hey, Big Herm.

Chapa-loppa!
[chuckles]

I just woke up from a nap, and
I cannot find my wife anywhere.

Have you seen your mom?

- No.
- Mommy?

Ah, she'll turn up.

I mean, it's not like she's been

kidnapped or something.

[all laughing awkwardly]
Oh, never.

Why would you say that?
That's a good one.

And even if she was kidnapped,

it's not like you kids could
do anything about it.

[all laughing awkwardly]

- 'Cause we're kids!
- Not in Danger Force anymore.

All right.
I'm gonna take another nap.

- Okay.
- Ooh!

Someone kidnapped our moms!

What kind of sick, twisted,

lowlife piece of trash would
kidnap all three of our moms?

All: Oh, my God!

It wasn't me.

- Oh, really?
- The guy who's mad at our moms

for pulling us out
of Danger Force.

The guy who would go
to ridiculous lengths

to get what he wants.

The guy who wrote

"kidnap their moms until
they change their minds"

on his whiteboard that says

"Sick Plans
for Getting D-Force Back"?

Yeah, I haven't
crossed that one out.

I haven't got around to it yet.

And no, I don't need your help
getting out of here.

You're welcome, everybody.

Because now we can pull
Swellview up on the big board

and see exactly where
all of your moms are.

So which dots are our moms?

Huh...

that's weird.

Weird good, like Daft Punk?

Or weird bad,
like you lost all the moms?

- Weird bad.
- Where are our moms, Schwoz?

I-I don't know!

It's like they just disappeared.

Hey, why'd that dot go away?

Please don't say
"I don't know."

I don't know.

Oh, boy.
