HARTLEY: Ah!
[chuckles]
-Amy? -Oh hey, Hartley!
-You've got a little something on your-- -I know!
The Sunshine Club is picking up trash around school.
I was thinking maybe you could help us.
Why would I do that?
Because most of it is yours!
[blows raspberry] You can't prove that.
Oh.
"You're picking up my trash,
therefore know that I am better than you."
Well, that could've been anyone.
"Bow down to your supreme leader Amy."
That's not littering.
That's just me spreading my message to the masses.
You can't just throw your garbage wherever you want.
Why not? Gives your little sunshine gang something to do
besides attacking people with your smiles.
Your bad behavior has consequences.
If you keep littering, other kids will think they can, too.
And before long, this whole place will be one big old dump!
In the can, Tony! Put it in the can!
[sighs] Thank you! Have a "sunshine-y" day!
Great now I'm gonna be late for my first day as a mentor.
Okay, Hartley. Let's just skip through the part where I pretend to care
and just tell me what I need to know.
It's the first day of my new program for the Sunshine Club.
I'm taking babysitting a step further by teaching kids
values and giving them a role model to look up to.
Doesn't that sound fun?
No. It sounds like you have too much time on your hands.
Perhaps I'm not littering enough!
Ew. Really, Amy?
This is where you've been putting your chewed up gum?
Well what was I supposed to do, throw it on the floor?
I'm not an animal!
[theme music plays]
[upbeat rock plays]
Hey, Mom! What's with the dummy?
Amy, that's no way to talk about your father.
[Colby chuckles] Good one, Mom!
-[both] Ah! -Colby?
Yeah. Still shape-shifting into random things.
This morning he got stuck
as this wisecracking ventriloquist dummy.
Wow. Congrats, Colby. You've officially scraped the bottom
of the shape-shifting barrel.
So Colby's a creepy doll.
I've had nightmares that start like this.
At least this one's not telling bad--
Hey, who wants to hear a joke?!
What do dummies use to hear?
Their puppeteers!
Get it? Puppet-eers?
[chuckles] Oh, that one's top shelf.
Okay! We've had enough of your bad jokes all day.
It's your turn.
Ah, they're not all bad.
Just make sure you grease his little mouth hole
so he doesn't lock up on the punchline.
Oh, and whatever you do, do not pull his string.
Not gonna make that mistake a fifth time.
Yeah, I'm not greasing anything. Bye.
[doorbell rings]
Amy, I need your help.
I was supposed to mentor this fifth grader Scarlett
at my house but now I can't because
my Grandma invited the girls over to play cards.
So... you don't want the kid to see them playing cards?
No. I don't want her to see the fights that break out
when my Grandma loses.
The cards aren't the only ones with clubs.
Forget mentoring and come with me to the mall.
I'm gonna skim up all of the change from the wishing fountain.
People throw money away to make their wishes come true.
And I gonna skim it out to make mine come true.
No way, this is my first time mentoring
and it'll look horrible if I cancel.
But I wouldn't have to if
I could just invite Scarlett over here and then--
Uh-uh. No way.
[doorbell rings]
Oh. You already told her she could come here?
I just cleaned up 50 pounds of your trash.
You owe me!
Scarlett!
[vehicle speeds away]
Was that your parents?
Yeah. They do that whenever they drop me off.
I'm your problem now.
Uh, Scarlett, this is Amy.
She was nice enough to let us use her house--
Yeah, yeah. Let's skip the chit-chat
and get down to business.
I've gotta be down at the docks by 5:30
to sign for a "shipment.'
What kind of "shipment?"
Hair scrunchies from Guatemala.
I mark 'em up 80 percent and sell 'em in the girls' bathroom.
Gotta make that paper. Am I right, ladies?
What's with the doll? He looks creepy.
COLBY: Yeah, well, the view ain't great
from over here either, shortcake.
Did that thing just talk back to me?
Uh, yeah. It's my little brother's smart doll.
It listens to what you say and responds. [chuckles]
Like this: Shut it, Colby!
-You shut it! -[chuckles] See? Fun!
Wait. Colby?
Oh, boy. Maybe we should put this in the other room.
COLBY: No! Wait! Who's gonna oil my mouth...
hole! [thud]
Um, so tell us, Scarlett,
what kind of dolls do you like to play with?
Only the best one ever!
Havoc!
Well, this took a delightful turn.
I really have to build you your own lair.
Oh, good. The pestering worked.
Hey, uh, Dad,
I'm having a... problem.
Oh, dear, well, this sounds like a father-son thing
so I'll just step back and watch it go horribly wrong.
Son, I'm happy to help.
Let's role play. You be you
and I'll be a fetching little villain named Cookie--
Not that kind of problem! Look...
-[creaking] -[grunts]
Ever since I stopped using my super-strength, it's gotten weaker.
And I definitely didn't realize this when I was using my powers
even though I'd tell you all not to.
Back to being a hypocrite. That's my boy!
You know, now that you mention it,
my electrical powers have been a little weak.
And I definitely didn't realize it
when I zapped the parking enforcement officer for giving me a ticket.
What's happening to us? And what if our powers keep weakening?
I don't wanna lose my super-strength forever!
Relax. Power atrophy is totally normal
when you haven't used them in a while.
I can build a neural stimulator
that should give you both a boost.
[gasps] Ooh! Fantastic.
I'd love a little more "juice."
Ahh!
Huh. Aww, see.
If I had my own lair, that never would have happened.
So, tell me, what is it that you like most about Havoc.
-Well for starters-- -Better yet, why don't I go first...
Better yet, why don't we play a game?
It's called "Building Self Esteem!'
I'll go first: Scarlett, I love your hair!
Now say something nice about me...
I lose. New game.
Let's go outside and see how many tires
we can deflate in 15 minutes. Go!
No! Scarlett, we're not deflating tires.
[chuckles] I'll be right back.
You're not deflating tires either!
Wanna hear something cool?
Every time I get in trouble for doing something at home,
I just say my Havoc doll told me to do it.
[gasps] That's genius!
Scarlett, you might have just restored my faith in humanity.
I can't believe you like Havoc as much as I do.
Oh, I don't just like her, I love her!
Same! She's the one who taught me
there's no such thing as rules!
Me, too!
No, no! There are definitely rules!
And that's what I'm teaching you...
your mentor, right here, remember?
Sorry, but the only person I look up to is Havoc.
Mm. Aww.
Children really are our future.
What do you think you're doing?
The whole point of this is so Scarlett can learn
from a good role model!
Whoa!
Are you saying Havoc isn't a good role model?
Yeah. That's exactly what I'm saying.
Hey, while you two hash this out,
I'll be in the kitchen eating all your junk food.
No, Scarlett No junk food.
Yes, Scarlett. It's my house
and I say you can do whatever you want.
Ugh. I'm so torn.
Wait. No I'm not. See ya!
You can't let her go in there and eat junk food!
Ugh. I'm so torn. Wait. No, I'm not. See ya!
[rock music]
You're so much fun to hang out with!
If I didn't know better, I'd think you were Havoc!
[laughs] Nope.
I'm just a big fan.
A really, really, really big fan.
I wish you were my mentor.
Hartley is nowhere near as cool as you are.
Oh, come on, that's not true.
No, Harltey's cool, just in a different way.
You know what? We had our fun.
I think you should hang out with her for a while.
I'll go get her.
COLBY: Hey princess, can you give me a hand?
Ugh. You again?
COLBY: Yeah. Can you pick me up?
I've been down here so long,
the ants are starting to have their way with me.
Sure. I'll pick you up.
Pick you up so I can get rid of you!
COLBY: Wait, what? No. Wait!
What are you doing? Okay. Let's work together.
I can be your scrunchie model.
Okay, this device should get your powers back
to where they need to be.
But I could only make one
because there were only so many parts I could strip
from Celia's truck.
I just have to try doing both at the same time.
So our fate depends on Celia's 1979 rust-bucket?
Okay, she's ready to roll.
This should be quick and painless.
Or it'll be long and torturous, I really have no idea.
[both squealing]
[laughing]
It really tickles!
Try to power through. This should just take a second.
[grunting]
[exhales]
-Ahh! -[shrieking]
I thought you said it would just take a second!
It did. This is just for me.
-[laughs] -[sighs] Wow.
I feel better already.
Your super-strength should be back to maximum power.
Go ahead, test it out.
[sighs]
There's nothing there.
-It's gone! -VIC: What?
My power's gone, too! What did you do?
Oh, boy.
By using the neural stimulator on both of you,
It appears to have had an unintended consequence.
What kind of "unintended consequence"?
Honey, would you mind moving
my workstation over here for me?
Why are you asking me, you know I can't lift-- [gasps]
Wait. So does that mean...
[electricity crackling]
[groans]
Oh, yeah. You swapped powers.
[groans] Lift it up! Lift it up!
So I think it's only fair that you get to bond with Scarlett, too.
I mean, she already knows I'm superior to everyone else on the planet.
My work here is done.
-So you're done teaching her to be a troublemaker? -Yup.
And you're gonna stop encouraging her
-to break my rules? -Yup!
And you're going to help me teach her to be a better person?
Hartley, I already caved. Don't push it.
Sup, ladies?
Cheese curl?
Wait, I know that grin.
That's a "I did something bad and I'm waiting for you to catch on" grin.
What did you do?
Nothing. I just got rid of that annoying doll.
The Colby doll? What do you mean you got rid of it?
I threw him in the trash can outside.
-You what? -[gasps]
Oh, no! It's trash day and the truck just picked up the cans!
You see, Hartley, this never would've happened
if you would just let me deflate their tires!
[upbeat rock plays]
You must really like that doll.
I've never seen anyone swan dive into
a landfill before.
Oh!
This is someone's used dental floss!
Oh. Actually, I could use that.
I still got some week-old shrimp tails in my teeth!
All that and we still couldn't find your brother--
The doll. Your brother, the doll.
Okay, I'm sorry, but hanging out with you
gets weirder every day.
Are you sure you threw the doll in the trash cans?
Oh! Wait. Did I say I threw the doll away?
My bad. I didn't throw it away.
I saw some neighbors walking by with their kid
so I gave it to them.
-[both laugh] -What?
Why would you make us wade
through thousands of pounds of trash
if you didn't throw the doll away?
Cause it was fun.
Scarlett, you had no right to give that doll away.
Oh, so now you're playing by the rules, too?
I thought you were cool, but you're a fun-killer,
just like Hartley.
I don't want either one of you to be my mentor.
I'm outta here!
Ugh!
Now do you see that your bad behavior has consequences?!
Not gonna lie, it's starting to become a little clear.
Come on, we gotta go find her.
One sec. [coughs]
Sorry. Shrimp tail.
[upbeat rock music]
I can't believe you swapped our powers!
I also can't believe that my mother is stronger than I am!
[grunts]
[laughs] Oh believe it, baby!
I have the strength of 20 muscle-heads.
Could've done without the hairy back though.
What am I supposed to do with electrical powers?
They're not nearly as cool as my super-strength.
No offense.
None taken. Hey, what's that on your face there?
-Uh, where? -[zapping]
[laughs]
You see, it's funny because it's painful.
No offense.
Okay, looks like all we have to do to get your powers back
is hook you up to the device again
and reverse the process.
Great, let's do it!
Come on, Eva, now you.
I don't wanna.
What do you mean you "don't wanna"?
I like having super-strength.
It'll really get my point across to people
who drive me crazy.
See?
Great. Now I'll have to call Scarlett's parents
and tell them that I lost her.
Which means my first time mentoring someone
is a complete failure.
I'm sorry. Okay?
It was the first time anyone's ever looked up to me
and it... felt kinda cool.
Why do you think I wanted to do this?
I've never had a younger brother or sister and...
I wanted to see what it felt like to have someone look up to me.
Well, you can hang out with the Colby doll when we get him back.
I mean, he's a younger brother.
And he's got bean bags for legs
so he can't run away from you.
What was that?
Cheese curls.
Oh. She's in the tree! I'll go get her.
No, wait.
I made this mess. Let me fix it.
Plus, she's pretty high up. I don't wanna have to come save both of you.
[upbeat rock plays]
-What do you want? -I came to talk to you.
You know, one Havoc fan to another.
Wait, so you're back to breaking rules again? Great!
Let's go to an old folks home
and tell them they have their whole lives ahead of them.
No!
Well, maybe later.
Listen. I know you look up to Havoc
because she does whatever she wants but...
her actions have consequences. And so do yours
Is this about the doll?
I can give you one of mine.
But just so you know, I gouge all their eyes out.
Wow. That is disturbing.
Uh, I'm talking about Hartley.
She really wanted to spend time with you today.
Yeah, right. No sitter has ever wanted to spend time with me.
I kinda have a bad reputation.
You know what? A long time ago...
I didn't have the best reputation either.
But Hartley still wanted to be my friend.
You should give her a shot. Having her as a big sister
might be good for you.
Yeah, maybe.
But she's gotta chill on the rules.
I mean, I'm 11 I'm a grown woman.
Of course, you are. That's why you're eating cheese curls in a tree.
Wait, if everything Havoc does has consequences,
why does she do bad things?
Maybe she never thought about consequences.
Just so you know,
I don't only like Havoc because she does bad stuff.
She's also strong, doesn't care what people think about her
and always stands up for herself.
Yeah. You're right.
I guess Havoc isn't such a good role model after all.
So why not take some of Havoc's good qualities
and mix I em with Hartley's good qualities
and see what happens?
I could do that.
I mean, being bad all the time can be exhausting.
Mm. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
[upbeat rock plays]
Eva, honey,
you not having electrical powers isn't natural.
It's like toast without jelly,
or ice cream without the rainbow sprinkles.
You're just afraid that if I might get mad,
I might use my super-strength to crush your head.
Am I not supposed to care about my head?
Mom, it's not that we don't want you to have my strength,
it's just that...
She's staring at me. I'm frightened.
I think what Jake is trying to say is,
you do have a bit of a...
temper.
[shrieks]
And there it is.
I...
do... not... have...
a temper!
[yelps]
Okay, now I see it, you can turn me back.
[upbeat rock]
Okay, Scarlett,
I think it's time to call your parents to pick you up.
Wait! I want to stay.
-You do? -Yeah.
And maybe we can play that "Self Esteem" game
you were talking about.
-And Amy can play, too! -[scoffs]
Sorry, Amy's got stuff to do.
I thought you said games were lame.
I only said that because that's what Havoc would say.
But Amy taught me that Havoc isn't always right.
She did?
Calm down. You're not the only one changing lives around here.
Now we just have to find the doll.
Right! Scarlett, we really need you
to get our doll back from that family.
Don't worry. I already texted them.
[doorbell rings]
COLBY: Help me!
What did I tell you?
The more you complain, the more I squeeze!
COLBY: Oh!
Thanks for bringing him back.
This isn't fair! I love that doll!
Oh, well, wait right here.
Here is an even better doll.
She might be too young for that--
That's Havoc! I love it!
You don't want her anymore?
Nah. You can have her. She's served her purpose.
So, tell me. What exactly do you love about Havoc?
Uh-uh. [chuckles]
You should take my number.
'Cause in about five years, you're gonna need me.
Hm. Hey, Amy.
Whatcha doin'?
I figured I'd take your advice
and throw my trash in its proper place.
Aww. Good for you!
This is your math book.
And now it's the dumpster's math book.
COLBY: Cause math is trash.
[laughs] I'll be here all week!
Oh, I hope not.
-Hey, where've you been all day? -The lair.
Our genius father tried to boost our powers
and ended up swapping them instead.
Wait. You can boost my power?
Don't even think about it.
Anyway, it all worked out.
And I, being the genius that I am,
fixed the problem and got 'em both back to normal.
Yep. I don't know about the rest of you,
but I could use some fresh air.
So, think I'll go for a walk.
Hey, Colby, why don't you go for a walk with her?
[laughs] It's funny because he can't!
[wood splintering]
[chuckles] Oopsie.
I think I still got some strength in me.
And back to the lair we go.
[upbeat rock plays]
