Now, Virgil, time to eat.
- And this is? - Dinner.
Could you be more specific.
It's meatloaf. Enjoy.
Kinda on the pink side huh?
Look, while dad's away at the counsellors council.
I'm in charge.
That means you are gonna eat what I cook. Clear?
Alright, chill. Could I at least have some ketchup?
Since you're already up.
I don't need excuse.
I am carrying sixteen units at school
I volunteer at the hospital, you don't like my cooking
well, then you can just..
Chomp chomp ...starve.
Well, gotta go. Thanks for dinner.
Slow down. Where you going? Some video arcade?
No, I am gonna meet Richie to do a little homework.
Excuse me, did you just say video arcade?
- That is so Y2K. - Is what?
Y2K, last year, out of date, history. Everybody is sayin' it.
They are not. That's just some stupid thing you made up.
Ow.
Wow! Hot!
Hmm.
Man, the things I do to keep peace in the house.
No, Byron. I am not gonna do this.
First, don't call me Byron anymore.
From now on my name is Boom, and yours in Mirage.
Uh, whatever, Boom.
Second, this ain't fun for me either.
But it's the only way to help grandma.
You do want to help her, don't you?
Mm-hmm.
Alright, let's get with it.
Yo, little man, if you're not 21, you can't join the fun.
Well, I am sure you'll make an exception in our case.
Maybe you didn't hear me.
No, maybe you didn't hear me.
Way too noisy in here. I can hardly hear myself think.
Okay, all you yuppies and buppies, hit the floor.
Nobody is doing like I asked.
Mirage, it's all you.
'You told her we were doing homework?'
'On a Friday night?'
Think she won't believe me?
No, she will. But she doesn't say much for our social lives.
Hey, something's up with that new club on Warren.
Later.
I said, can you describe the people who attacked you?
- What? - What did they look like?
No, I feel alright. I just can't hear so good.
Hey, chief, very hip place to hold a policemen's ball.
Am I too late to buy a ticket?
There was a robbery here, Static, Metahumans.
Any idea who did it?
One of them was like a human loudspeaker.
The other one somehow conjured up a pack of tigers.
Huh, Soul trains meets the Discovery channel..
- Hey, it's Static. - Static. Over here, please.
Need a question.
I tell you, he is working my last nerve.
Every dinner I make, he gives me grieve about it.
It's not like my cooking's that bad.
- Of course not. - No, it's fine.
Hey, it's Static.
Oh, wait, talk about electric.
Who do you think did this, Static? Slipstream? Replay?
No, these are new bang babies.
Besides, we got those other guys chilling in jail.
They are totally Y2K.
Y2K? Like what's that mean?
He's saying they are history, it's an expression.
Virgil uses it all.. Whoa.
Sharon? You alright?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Catch you later, guys.
No way.
Aw, come on, don't die. I'm only five blocks from home.
Static?
Hm.
Virgil?
Static?
No, couldn't be.
Could it?
Credit card. Credit card. Credit card.
Boo-yeah! Now, that's what I'm talking about.
What are you doing?
Taking inventory. Now go eat breakfast or something.
What is your problem?
Why this all have to happen?
Yeah, one day we're livin' large in the burbs
next we're here in this pit. Stinks, doesn't it?
First mom goes, then dad, then this.
I know, sis, I know. I miss him, too.
But maybe us stepping in that spill
from the big bank was payback, almost a gift.
You call this a gift? We're freaks.
Okay, maybe not a gift. Then how about an opportunity?
Now we got a way to get back what we had
and a way to help grandma. Thanking her for taking us in.
We're all she's got.
I know that.
That's why we're doing this. So we can buy her a nice place.
You just gotta trust your big brother, okay?
Breakfast, Virgil?
Uh, sure.
Here's syrup, blueberry jam.
I can make bacon if you want.
Um, this is good. Thanks.
You're welcome.
Oh, do those need a little warmup?
No, they are perfect. Really.
So, how was your evening?
Do anything interesting?
- What do you mean? - You know..
When you went out to.. Where did you go again?
- Uh, a movie. - Ah!
Was that after you and Richie did your homework?
Mm..
Homework? No see..
No, after that we went and saw..
You feel alright?
Me? Oh, sure. And you?
Fine. Well, I'm gonna go now.
Oh, off on an important errand, are you?
Uh, no. I'm just going up to my room. Okay?
Okay, little brother. Bye.
No mental problems there.
♪ WDK FM Dakota city ♪
Yo, check it out! You're back with Dr. Mac on the BDK.
Now, I am gazing at a stack of green like you've never seen.
No lie, right here in the studio.
A hundred and two thousand dollars!
'We are looking for the twenty seventh caller.'
'If that's you, you are one oh two DK winner'
Hah, what kind of fool's gonna fall for that hype?
- 'Eh yo, V, I am gonna win.' - Richie?
Yeah, I have been speed dialing WDK for an hour.
I'm on hold. I'm in..
V, who's that?
I don't know. Shh.
Uh, listen up, y'all, we got us a special guest in the studio.
Calls himself Boom and I..
I just won a hundred and two thousand big ones.
- Right? - Uh-huh.
He is stealing my prize money.
I'm on it.
Virgil, are you listening to the radio? Virgil?
'Static, are you there? Come in, Static?'
- Richie? - Uh..
The cellular unit you called is not responding
or is out of range, please try your call again later.
Gotcha!
Any sign of them yet?
Never mind.
Back off, five oh, I got the drop on you!
Okay, sis, make it big.
Elephants.
Fallback.
Looks like the circus is in town.
They are not real.
Cover your ears before he..
Byron!
Look, I didn't wanna do it. But Byron made me help him.
Uh-huh. So what is he? Your boyfriend?
No way! He is just my brother.
Oh, guess he can be a real pain sometimes, huh?
But he is not acting like his normal self.
Lately, he sorta scares me.
Mirage, no offence, but your bro sounds wacked.
It happens to a lot of bang babies
it messes with their head.
He is still my brother.
Hey, I hear you, doesn't matter how much trouble they get into
your family is your family.
You still care about them.
Look, you rest, we'll talk later.
Her brother? That could be a problem, family ties and all.
Yeah, but she is coming around.
At least she is not in any hurry to see..
On the other hand, she may not have a choice in the matter.
'We now return to our Saturday afternoon feature.'
"Night of The Killer Cows."
'Tell me what're you doin' here in the barn?'
'Looking for you, Mary Jo.'
'I thought you done got killed.'
'No, I am fine but.. Huh!'
'Tommy, look out behind you..'
Why're you sitting here? You hate this kinda movie.
I just think we should spend more time together.
Gee! Thanks, but, no thanks.
Would you say no to these?
The Dakota Destroyers? Incredible!
Hold on, why are you taking me to a basketball game?
Because I'm your sister, silly.
Right, so exactly when did the aliens
replace you with this clone?
Yeah, that's right, next I see Static
I'm gonna give him a world of hurt.
Listen to you, you're not some gangster from the hood.
We are from Southfield. Byron, I know it's not your fault.
It's that bang-baby thing. It made you sick, you need help.
Ah, okay, baby sister, this next thing, it's the last one.
In and out, then we'll be done.
You promise? No trouble?
It'll be no trouble at all.
- Thank you. - Virgil, stay close.
Any closer and we'll be wearing the same pair of pants.
Okay, Sharon, what's up? Why you hanging on me like this?
Because, Virgil, I know the truth.
I know that you're Static.
Now, what makes you say that?
Static looks like you, Static talks like you and the other
night I saw him flying right into our neighborhood.
That's all just co-incidence.
Then how do you explain this? I found it in your room.
I heard Richie's voice coming out of it and he was saying.
"Static, Static."
Oh, that.. What, no.. Heh-heh!
See, this is just an old walkie talkie
Richie and I are trying to fix.
And he was probably complaining about the static.
You know, the.. Shhhh.. All that.
Well, okay, Virgil, you play it your way.
But sooner or later, you are going to change into Static
and I intend to be right there when you do.
Hey, V, I didn't know you're going to be here.
What you doing?
Uh, going to the bathroom and so are you.
Virgil!
Men only. Bye.
I just saw Boom and Mirage in the crowd.
Oh, no.
And Sharon has figured out that I'm Static.
Uh, I might be partially responsible for that.
- You think? - What do we do, bro?
There's gotta be someway to cool her down.
Sprinklers.
Yeah, give it enough juice to set off the whole section.
Just what I was thinking.
Huh? Hey! Ugh, my clothes.
Get those pants to dry clean too.
Uh-oh, sounds like Mirage and her bro making their move.
What about Sharon?
She is gonna have to wait till I
can pull the plug on Mr. Boombox.
Arena manager this way.
And that way. So where did the door go?
Huh, nice cover up.
This guy is hurt.
You said there wasn't gonna be any trouble.
And there wouldn't have been if he had done like I told him.
Now, let's go.
No, Static was right. You are crazy.
Quit sayin' that. Who you gonna listen to?
Your own brother or some flying freak?
Uh, Alex, I'll take flying freak for two hundred dollars.
Ah!
What is that?
Thud.
This guy is hot on the ears than a Ratt metal concert.
You're done messing with my plans, Static.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh.
- Wrong way, Sharon. - Richie, let go.
Shar, it's dangerous in here.
You wanna see dangerous?
Touch me again, I'll show you dangerous.
Stay still, will you?
Sorry, I didn't quite catch that. But you can catch this.

Whoo, yeah. You go, bro! Whoo!
Get out of here, you two, uh, whoever you are.
Ah!
Virgil!
Swoosh
swoosh swoosh This has to stop.
What? It's a mirage, I can't see. Quit it.
Swoosh.
Whoo, I gotta work out more.
Mirage, quit it.
Let me out. I'm warning you.
Swoosh.
Hey, dude!
It's like they say, "People who live in glass houses
should keep the volume down."
Uh, think fast, hero, your sister has you
right in her sight.
There is Virgil. The last one out. Proves my point, see?
The only point I see is the one on top of your head.
So, are you gonna admit it?
Admit? Oh, are you still going on with that crazy Static talk?
Static talk.
Cut it out, Virgil. First you disappear then Static shows up.
Static disappears, you show up.
You can't tell me those sprinklers went off by accident.
Sprinklers? Oh that explains the hair.
I thought you just had a perspiration problem.
Fine, tell you what?
We'll just let daddy figure it out when he get home.
Wait, look.
Now, what were you sayin'?
He is.. You're.. But if.. You can't be..
Did you hear me shouting at him? Oh!
He must think I am buggin' big time.
That would be my guess.
Uh, how did you do that?
Static just asked a new friend for a small favor.
