- FEMALE COMPUTER VOICE: Alert! Alert!
Incoming transmission from Super President Kickbutt.
- Hello, Max. I'm calling for Phoebe.
- Oh, sorry, wrong number.
- Oh!
- Madam President, how can I help you?
- The Hero League has decided
it's time to take your next big superhero step.
- Oh, does it involve moving away?
- Anyway, you've been accepted into our mentor program.
I'm sending over a list of approved superheroes
who can take you under their wing
and teach you everything they know.
Choose one and report back.
President Kickbutt out.
- I can't believe this is happening!
I get to go to Metroburg to train with a legend.
Look who's on the mentor list!
- ALL: Tech Rider!
- Oh, he has so many awesome gadgets
and look how many saves he's racked up.
- Forget about the saves.
He's got a supercycle that's so fast
it'll turn your face inside out.
I must know how that feels.
- Me, too.
- So, Phoebe...
it's pretty clear who you're gonna choose.
The guy's a superstar.
Monitor, call President Kickbutt.
- COMPUTER VOICE: Please hold for Super President Kickbutt.
I've been accepted into the Hero League Mentor Program.
- Oh, honey, that's fantastic!
You know who's on that list.
- Yeah, I do.
- This is a dream come true.
I finally get to mentor my own daughter!
- Oh, keep it together, Hank.
This is just the best day of your life.
- That was quick.
Have you made your decision already?
- HANK: Ohhhh...
- Yep, I'm choosing...
Thunderman.
- MAX & COLOSSO: Thunderman?
- Ohhhh...I'm so happy!
Here come the supertears!
Oh, you all are crying, too?
- MAX: Yeah. - COLOSSO: Yeah.
- PHOEBE: We're just so happy.

* What you see
* Is not what you get
* Livin' our lives with a secret *
* We fit right in
* Bet you never guessed
* 'Cause we're livin' our lives *
* Just like all the rest
* A picture perfect family *

* Look closer, you might see *
* The crazy things we do
* This isn't make believe *
* It's our reality
* Just your average family

How exciting is this?
Thunderman's gonna be a mentor!
One day, you will be able to do this...
- I can't believe you picked Dad.
- Not pick Dad!
- Well, obviously you won't fly,
But, uh, you will learn a lot.
- Just not about supercycles.
- To think--you could have been stuck with someone
like Technical Rider Man. - It's just Tech Rider.
- His supercycle and all his high-tech gizmos
might look cool,
but they are no substitute for this.
- No, a brain.
Whether you use supergadgets or superpowers,
it's a superhero's best friend.
- He does have a pretty amazing save record, Dad.
Oh, and he's a swimsuit model, too.
- Yeah, I've modelled before.
- Phoebe, we are gonna do great things together.
And, Max, my hair used to look just like yours.
Think about that.
Maybe training with Dad will be great.
Thunderman is the greatest superhero ever.
- Was the greatest superhero ever.
- Tech Rider's the man now.
And I know you feel the same way because...
you're writing "Phoebe hearts Tech Rider" on your tablet.
- Don't you have a bunny to "heart"?
- If she won't change her mentor,
then you're gonna have to do it for her.
- How am I supposed to do that?
So, like, if it's okay,
I'd like to switch my mentor to Tech Rider.
Cool beans. OMG, look at my nails.
- Max, I have a job to do--
and you are not pullin' off that wig, girlfriend.
- If I'm gonna get that supercycle,
I'm just gonna have to convince Phoebe
to ask for Tech Rider herself.
Why are you dressed like a girl, too?
- Uh, it's 4:30.
- BARB: It's gonna be cold today, guys,
so, don't forget your jackets.
- I lost mine. - CHLOE: Uh-oh!
- Billy, that jacket was brand new.
Nora, I need your lunchbox. - I lost it.
- Here comes the hammer.
- Okay, you guys can't keep losing things.
Jackets and lunchboxes don't just grow on trees.
- True. True.
So, when you go to the store,
can you buy me a lunchbox with a kitty on it?
- No, I am not buying you a new lunchbox.
- Ha! Ha!
- Or you a new jacket.
- Ha! Ha!
- Okay, you guys are just gonna have to survive without them
and then, maybe, you'll learn not to lose stuff.
- Don't even think about it.
- *
- Oh, welcome to the mean streets of Metroburg.
- Very funny, Dad.
To the real Metroburg, away!
Away!
- Sweetie, this driveway is our big city simulator.
It's all about preparation.
Now as a crime-fighter, you have to learn
how to arrive at a scene, access a situation...
...make the right call.
- Okay.
I'm here, this situation is ridiculous,
I'm going back inside.
- No, no, Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe...
this is serious, all right?
Now this bike represents a tanker truck
that crashed next to a bus full of kids,
stalled in a busy intersection.
- What's the empty pizza box represent?
- Oh, your Mom made meatloaf.
So...what do you do?
- Um, I use my freeze breath
on the tanker truck so it doesn't explode,
and everyone lives happily ever after.
- Almost.
You forgot to shut down the road.
Look, here comes an out-of-control cement truck.
- I'm outta control, baby.
- And you just caused a 12-car pile-up.
- You just got schooled.
- Dad, I'm the protector of Hiddenville.
I think I'm past pretend cement trucks
and trash-talking toddlers.
- Uh-uh-uh-uh! Mentor. Mentee.
Now, what's next?
Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Small town tornado.
Okay, I was gonna get some fans and, ooh,
milk cartons to represent flying cows!
- Poor, poor Phoebe.
Dad's never gonna take you to Metroburg.
- You don't know that.
- I stole his training schedule. - You do know that.
What?
After two weeks in the driveway,
I graduate to the attic?
The only crime up there is humidity.
My hair's gonna be a mess.
- Oh, would you look at that!
Tech Rider just took down some bank robbers.
But don't you worry.
Battling frizzy hair in the attic sounds a lot more fun.
- Uh, Phoebe Thunderman for President Kickbutt, please.
- *
- I don't understand fashion.
- Mom's making us use this stuff now
because Billy lost his jacket and I lost my lunchbox.
- You kids are just like your Mom.
She lost her phone this morning.
Now between you and me,
the woman would lose her head, if it wasn't screwed on.
Hey, honey, your head looks beautiful.
- Aw, look at my little garbage kids.
Here, I need a picture.
- Send me a copy.
- Oh, my gosh, how could she?
- Well, she could email it, text it.
It's actually kind of easy.
- Not the picture.
She has a new phone.
She already replaced the one she lost.
- Well, that's not fair.
She won't replace the stuff we lost.
- We need to teach her a lesson.
- And then we'll teach you how to email and text.
- *
- Oh, there you are.
Okay, Phoebe, Mr. Sprinkles over there
is biting through the gas line.
You're only gonna have seconds before--
- Uh, Dad, um... I have to tell you something.
I spoke to President Kickbutt yesterday.
We actually came up with a way to make my mentorship better.
- Well, what could be any better than this?
- I heard somebody needs a new mentor.
- That's how it gets better.
- So, you called President Kickbutt
and had me replaced with this pimply
- Dad, he has perfect skin.
- Let me see what I wanna see.
- The Hero League said this mentorship program
is supposed to be for on-the-job training,
not on-the-driveway training.
- So, you think you're ready to zip off to Metroburg
on this-- - Supercycle!
- Sorry, buddy, no one goes near the supercycle.
- It's okay.
Seeing it from the ground, with a slight head wound,
is just as rewarding.
- Thunderman! It is an honor to meet you.
I was actually lucky enough
to be at your retirement celebration in Metroburg.
- See, Dad, he's not so bad. He's a fan.
- Yeah, my folks said I slept through
the whole thing in my stroller,
but, hey, I was there, right?
May I?
- Drone selfie!
- So, the Hero League tells me you've cost them a fortune
mopping up the aftermath of your reckless behavior.
- Sometimes you've gotta destroy a whole city to save it,
you know what I'm sayin'?
- No.
You are a riot, T-man.
I'm gonna have my people send you some swag.
Brenda, send my new buddy,
Thunderman, a Tech Rider hat.
He's got some weird hair.
- Listen, kid, sorry you came
all this way on your little scooter,
but after this little show,
I'm sure my daughter's changed her mind
about all this tech nonsense.
- Ooh, what's a nano stun grenade?
- Aw, what a cute little marble.
- TECH RIDER:
Stunned him! Good one, rookie.
Let's go rack up some saves in Metroburg.
- Bye, T-man.
- I'm kinda blind right now, but...
can I feel the look on your face?
Oh. Oh, yeah.
You're much more stunned than I am.
- Look, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine.
This is all part of the mentoring process.
I'm mentoring her by letting her go.
- Do you really believe that?
- Let me believe what I wanna believe!
- I don't know if I'm smelling exhaust or failure.
- Oh, I didn't fail, my friend.
While T-man and Jerk Rider were taking a selfie,
I snuck over to the supercycle,
and put a remote control on it.
Then on my way back,
I did what every supervillain does--
I crop dusted them.
Now I just wait for the right moment
to activate my remote control
and drive it back to its new daddy--me.
- I call first ride!
- Where'd you buy that outfit?
- You don't buy something like this, Max...
...you earn it.
- Mom's sunglasses, her shoes, her purse.
- She's gonna think she lost all this stuff,
and when she replaces them, like her phone,
we'll bust her.
- BARB: Okay, Hank, maybe I left it downstairs.
- She's coming! Quick, hide everything!
- Did you lose something, Mom?
- Uh, no, I am just looking for...
hugs!
Where...?
- Hey, Mom, can I borrow your sneakers?
I'm doing a school report on women's footwear.
- Uh, yeah. Maybe later. I just...
I have to go run some errands.
- Uh, it's what all the moms are doing now.
So, put that in your report, huh?
Bye!
- That was awesome! Right, Phoebe?
Phoebe?
Next time you do a wheelie,
can I get a little heads up?
I'll hold on tighter.
- Learning lessons! Up top!
- I'd high-five you, but my hands are full of gravel.
- I got you covered. Woo!
All righty!
Looks like it's your lucky day, rookie.
We have got a big first mish.
That's what I call "mission." It saves time.
- Hey, learnin' from my ment.
- Mentor.
I was just saving time. Never mind.
- Okay! All right!
According to the Hero League,
we have got a prison break goin' down.
Let's do this! Woo!
- Wait! Well, shouldn't we have a plan?
I guess he'll tell me inside.
- *
- It looks like they've stopped.
Time to bring my new supercycle home.
- It's empty!
Where am I gonna find 47 "AA" batteries?
Colosso, how many batteries does your tanning bed take?
- Don't you dare!
It's almost beach season.
- MALE VOICE ANNOUNCING: Warning!
Escape attempt in progress.
- All right, let's assess the situation.
- Assess this.
I'm gonna hit that thing with a sonic pulse!
- Wait!
- Yeah, I do.
That's the sound of me saving everyone's butt!
- Not quite. This place is made out of thundertanium.
It's indestructible but it also
amplifies sonic waves that--
- That will happen.
Oh!
- PHOEBE: The doors!
- All right. Mentor pop quiz.
Twelve extremely shady prisoners staring you down.
What do you do?
By the way, this is a time-sensitive quiz.
- I do this!
- *
- Now that's a 12-car pile-up.
- Oh, ho, ho, ho! I just mentored it up!
Drone selfie!
- *
- Just a few things I needed to pick up.
- I'll bet you did.
- Listen, there's something I need to tell you two.
- Oh, there's plenty you need to tell us.
Like slippers were all the rage--last season.
- We know what you've been up to.
So we stole a bunch of your things,
knowing you'd just go buy new ones.
- New ones--like these.
Sunglasses, shoes, a pocketbook, earrings.
Another phone!
- A lunchbox. A jacket for a tiny person.
- Well, if you'd let me finish,
you'd know that I, too, lose things,
and I realized it wasn't right
for me to replace my stuff, and not yours as well.
- Well...thank you for clearing that up.
And you can rest assured that we won't hold it against you.
Come on, Billy!
You two stole a bunch of my stuff
and you tried to trick me.
Two weeks' dish duty.
- Or you walk away from this knowing
you have two of everything and we don't tell Dad.
- You can't negotiate. I am the mom.
One week's dish duty
and I get to keep all the phones.
- BILLY & NORA: Deal!
- What just happened in there?
- I taught you how to go
from zero to awesome in 2.8 seconds! Up top!
- When we got here,
there was one bad guy trying to escape.
And thanks to your 2.8 seconds,
I had to step in and capture 12.
- I'm not gonna lie, rookie. You were amazing in there--
which means I'm an incredible mentor.
Now...
hop on because I feel like doing
a victory wheelie tech ride!
- No, I'm going home. This was a mistake.
And you can hop on. I'm in front now.
- Whoa!
- Did you turn this thing on?
- Whoooaaaa!
- Hey, get back here!
I will not go back to being Tech Walker!
Tech Walker shoes, activate.
- There it is. The supercycle's on its way home.
Thanks for the new batteries.
- Don't thank me. Thank Chloe.
You are a monster!
- Oh, I wish I could've seen Phoebe's face
when this thing took off with nobody on it.
Supercycle, I command you to turn left.
- All right!
- That's right, come to papa.
- Oh, that looks fun. Let me try.
- Wait, paws off my remote. - Come on, share!
- My face is turning inside out!
- Let go! - No, you let go!
- Oh, no, the supercycle!
- MAX: I think it's heading for that cliff!
- I'm heading for that cliff!
- My supercycle!
- *
Dad!
Thank you!
Wait. Where'd you come from?
- I've been keeping an eye on you.
Not because I don't trust you,
because I didn't trust Tech Rider.
- You were right. He is reckless.
I was just so caught up in his supercycle
and his supergadgets, and his supersmooth skin.
- I hate to admit it, but his skin does glow.
- Dad, I never should have replaced you.
I'm sorry.
- I understand. My methods can be old-fashioned.
I used everything you taught me at the prison
and that's what saved the day.
I can't wait for our next lesson.
- Are you saying you want me to be your mentor again?
- I'm saying...
today made me realize a mentor
is a person you look up to and learn from
and that person's always been you.
So, I'm gonna call President Kickbutt
and make it official--again.
Nothing would make me prouder.
- Perfect, Chloe.
Now I think the supercycle disappeared from my radar
somewhere around-- - Speaking of being proud...
- Oh! Hey, guys!
Chloe and I, we're just leaving.
Quick, home, Chloe!
- This is for stealing my batteries!
- Any chance you two saw a runaway motorcycle around here?
- Thunderman...
- HANK & PHOEBE: ...away!
- I guess I'm walkin'.
- On your left!
