Ugh. Virgil!
You shrieked?
You didn't take the garbage out last night.
Is that what smells?
I figured you were trying a new recipe.
For the last time, Virgil
you have to help with the chores!
I do help with the chores.
No, you say you'll help
then you disappear. Poof.
Well, I wouldn't say poof.
It's more like...zoom.
Virgil, believe it or not, I am worried about you.
You're always tired. You're out late at night.
Young man, I need a word with you.
Finally. Maybe now things around here will change.
You talk to him, daddy.
This old electric razor just doesn't hold a charge anymore.
Could you take a look at it?
Mm-hmm.
What? You want him to fix a razor?
He can't fix breakfast.
[razor buzzing]
Wait. How did you..
I, uh, just scraped some gunk off the charger contacts. See?
Thanks, son. Have a good day today.
And be careful out there.
Ooh!
Good news, class.
I'm returning last Thursday's tests.
[all grumbling]
I tell you, Rich
Sharon was not gonna let up.
If pops hadn't come in with that razor..
So? Maybe it's not so bad
that he found out about your secret identity.
Yeah, he saves me from Sharon
and I save him a fortune in appliance repairs.
Here you go, Mr. Hawkins.
And a surprise for you, Mr. Foley.
Now, class, open your books to Chapter 22.
- What's wrong? - Shh. Later.
[instrumental music]
What is your problem?
I got a B-minus, okay?
No way.
B-minus for brain boy?
Well, lately this brain has been
having some serious mental lapses.
Sometimes I'm lucky just to remember my name.
- Richie Foley! - And Virgil Hawkins.
Didn't you say you'd help us with the recycling campaign?
Yeah, and then not show up? Again.
- Well, uh.. - I guess we, uh..
What is up with you two?
You say you'll help, then you disappear. Poof.
Have you been talking to my sister?
Virgil, we're being serious.
If our friendship means so little to you, then..
Uhh!
Frieda, Daisy, we can explain.
We can?
What I mean is, we're real sorry.
Well..
[explosion]
Hey, that sounds pretty close.
[alarm blaring]
Where did they.. Ohh! Not again.
[gasps] Look! It's Static and Gear.
And as usual, Virgil and Richie are missing out.
You don't think..
Nah.
- Couldn't be. - Couldn't be.
[alarm beeping]
[grunts]
Thanks. I have very delicate ears.
You're supposed to grab the cash, mon.
What you doin' with all that food?
[sniffs] I was hungry. Is that a crime?
No, but everything else you do is. Ha!
[groaning]
[grunts]
Need a hand?
The hands...aren't the problem.
Well, he's doing jokes, he must not need my help.
Stay back!
What are you gonna do, sniff me?
No, smart guy. I'm gonna run.
Right. What was I thinking?
[grunting]
[grunts]
Ohh.
I'm gonna crush you like..
[groaning]
[screaming]
(Gear) Here, Ferret, Ferret, Ferret.
(Static) 'Gear, get over here!'
- What about Ferret? - 'Now, bro.'
[panting]
Whoa. What's happening to him?
His feet are shrinking.
You're not making any sense.
I don't get it, neither.
It's like Kangor was turning...normal.
That's crazy.
It was like a monster movie..
[screaming]
Get up, Ferret.
I said..
Stop it, Ebon.
Open your eyes. He's..
He's becoming human.
[groaning]
(Talon) 'Just like Kangor.'
Ehh. Me feelin' kinda light on my feet.
Better than before, when you were light in your head.
Thank you for calling me.
Well, Dr. Todd, we figured if anyone can explain what's up
you're the guy.
This is Kangor. He's..
Human again, yes, and before long
the same thing will happen to all of the Bang Babies.
Did you say "all?"
That's right, including you and Gear.
Within a few days, your powers will be gone.
Forever.
♪ It's alright ♪
with this metahuman antidote for several weeks?
Yes. The governor authorized the procedure late last month.
So far, there are ten cases
of Bang Babies reverting to human form.
But what if they don't want to change?
Don't they have a choice?
(Todd) 'With a few exceptions, the Bang Babies'
'are a menace to public safety.'
'To protect our citizens, we had to use extreme measures.'
And how are you handling this?
I don't know. Maybe Dr. Todd's right.
I mean, for the good of the people and all.
But?
Pops, I like being Static.
Even with all the Bang Babies gone
I still think I'd be needed.
How does Richie feel?
Well, he could be takin' it better.
(Richie) No!
No! No!
Hey, hey! Chill, okay?
There's no way to stop it.
I'm not gonna be a genius anymore.
And your powers, they're gonna..
I know, I've been feeling them
slipping away all week.
Didn't want to freak you out.
Why did they do this to us?
We're the good guys! It's not fair!
Uhh! Ow!
Then again, if we're not fighting Bang Babies
we'll have time to study.
Frieda and Daisy won't hate us anymore.
Could be okay.
Do you honestly believe that?
How long have we got?
I truly have no idea.
What say we jet over to see if the doctor's in?
Assuming we can stay in the air.
Good point. Fly low.
Donald, I just heard from a clinic on the south side.
Two more Bang Babies came in, totally cured.
Wonderful.
At this pace..
[yelling]
[groaning]
- Huh! - Hey, doc.
Remember me? Hotstreak?
Thought you'd want to meet some of my pals.
This is Talon, Shiv..
Skip the intros, stupid.
- 'This ain't a party.' - Who are you callin' stupid?
So...you're the one who came up with this lousy cure.
[grunting]
Yes, and it's working.
So whatever you do to me won't change a thing.
Tough talk, but are you sure
you speak for your homeboy over there?
Just what do you want?
You had to have some of the old Bang Baby gas
to make up a cure.
I want whatever you got left.
[laughs]
In the safe, over there.
Hotstreak, open it.
[grunts] Open it yourself.
Didn't you hear the man?
Same thing's gonna happen to you as Kangor
unless you do like I say.
Make me.
[loud shrieking]
You're both acting like jerks!
Now, let's..
[grunting]
No! Not Talon!
Hey, look. It's..
[grunts]
- Static! - Static!
You sure you're up for this?
No, but if we go down fightin'
I'm glad it's against these guys.
Oh, yeah. That's a real comfort.
- Burn 'em. - With pleasure.

Hyah!
Then here's something for you to remember me by!
[groans]

Ah!
Get up, Talon. We gotta--
No! Get away!
I want to be normal again!
Too bad. You're coming with me.

See? We're all going back to the way we were.
Not me!

About time.
Aah!

Grab...the gas!

Uhh! You know if the superhero thing doesn't work out
you have a real future in pro football.
Yeah, I'll keep that in mind.
Dr. Todd, how's your friend?
He'll be fine.
Looks like everybody's okay.
Not everybody.

(Talon) 'It's like waking from a nightmare'
and I never wanna go back.
We're glad for you, Talon.
Please don't call me that. My name's Teresa.
Okay, Teresa, but we need your help.
We want to know what Ebon plans to do with that tank of gas.
We figure he's trying to restore his powers.
It's worse than that.
He's gonna set off another Big Bang.
[instrumental music]
[screaming]
Can't maintain altitude.
My magnetic power keeps dropping out.
I know! I can hardly control backpack.
The data comes too fast and my brain can't keep up.
Aah!
[grunting]
[yells]
I'm not doing too hot on the skates, either.
[machine beeping]
[gasps]
It's no use.
I can't decipher backpack's incoming police data.
There's too much.
Is there anything you can understand?
Just that there seem to be some metahumans
heading toward the docks.
The docks.
Where the first Big Bang happened.
[ship horn blows]
I'm not waiting here all night.
- Where's Ebon? - I am Ebon, fool.
That cure they've been spraying is getting to me, too.
But that's all gonna change.
This here's the last can of Bang Baby gas.
And y'all can take a breath of it
long as you agree that I'm in charge
of this whole crew from now on.
[grunting]
No! Uhh!
Nobody quits, including you.
[grunting]
You're scared.
You were nothing before the Big Bang
and that's what you're gonna be again...nothing.
I told you to keep her quiet.
No. She's right.
[electricity crackling]
Aah!
You guys really need to oil these hatches.
[buzzing]
[groans]
Hey!
Okay. Now we run.
- After 'em! - Don't let 'em get away!
Up there!
[both screaming]
Where to now?
(Ebon) Nowhere.
In here!
- Great. A dead end. - You got that right.
Take the gas from the man, Hotstreak.
Gladly.
Now, we're gonna lock you in here for a while
but we'll drop in again, soon as we got our powers back.
You mean, if Hotstreak lets you have your powers back.
Where's Hotstreak?
I don't know.
He was just here a second ago, and..
You, go that way. You, go that way.
Find him!
(Gear) Which way should we go?
Okay, then.
(Shiv) We've looked everywhere.
He must've left the ship.
Then search every building around here.
Move!
Wait a minute.
beep
(Ebon) 'Gotcha.'
Come on, backpack, use your drill.
Ah, it's useless.
It can't link to my thoughts anymore.
I want that gas.
Back off, Ebon. It's mine now.
I'm givin' the orders.
[both grunting]
[both screaming]
(Gear) 'What are you doing?'
(Static) Stand back.
Maybe I can whip up one more blast.
One, two.. Huh?
Of course, that also works.

that is highly improbable, captain.
But my gut says...yeah.
Ebon and Hotstreak are still out there somewhere.

got a whiff of that gas.
Guess Dr. Todd will be whippin' up another batch

Only now that I'm a genius again
I think I'll whip us up a little cure for the cure.
Yeah. They can't get rid of us that easily.
