How many times a day do you flip a
switch to power up one of your magical

devices?

Television, video games, your
smartphone.

This is test 84 of the atom particle
liberator.

None of it would be possible without
this guy.

Three, six, nine.

Well, sort of.

He changed the way we harness energy.

His name?

was Nikola Tesla.

And he was one of the greats.

But he never achieved his ultimate goal.

Capturing lightning.

If only I could harness it into a
consistent being, we would have

libidinous power.

A lot has changed since then.

You and I aren't the only ones powering
up our devices, and it takes a lot of

energy to keep the magic going.

Energy that we're running out of.

There just isn't enough to go around.

The whole world is on low power mode.

But fear not.

I have a plan.

I just need a few key components and a
little faith.

I'm going to finish Tethel's work and
harness the power of lightning.

My mom saw this crisis coming.

That's why she worked so hard to
complete Tesla's design all those years

She went missing before she could solve
it.

Now I have to finish what she couldn't.

And when I do finish it, I'll finally be
the hero she thought I could be.

One of the greats.

Hello, mouse poop.

Shall I play upbeat music to encourage a
productive workday? I'm not really in

the mood for music right now, bud.

Jamie? How did you get in here?

I'm small and sneaky.

Squeakers. We need a better alarm
system.

We don't have an alarm system.

Well, then research one.

Preferably with an electric shock wire.

I must first research legality. I'm
kidding.

What's this?

Expensive. No touchy.

Jamie, I don't have time to play today,
okay? I don't want to play. Hey, I want

to help you with the machine.

It's not exactly safe.

Does it exactly work? You've been
working on this mystery machine forever.

How?

Piper, what are you, like Catwoman?

Batwoman, actually.

Batwoman, a superheroine known for
stealth and intelligence, was Batman's

primary love interest.

Sure would be a shame if someone were to
complain about you illegally siphoning

power to a foreclosed building.

Sure would be a shame if someone found
out you've been hacking government

websites and shutting down employee
logins.

For real? How did you... Thanks a lot,
Newt.

I am not programmed for discretion.

It was payback for the administration
shutting down student protests.

It's called hacktivism. You say tomato,
I say cyber felony.

Fine. You've got dirt on me, I've got
dirt on you.

Let's pull the tea.

How does it work?

And what is it?

It's a sustainable energy machine based
off the Tesla concepts in the mom's

design. It uses a small amount of energy
to...

excite the atoms in the air, and then
use its induction to pull that extra

energy into the machine with frequency
multiples of 3, 6, and 9.

Kind of like a wireless charger.

You are blowing my mind right now.

Tesla's design pulls energy from all
over, like this.

Mine will pull it in, like this.

But does it work?

Not consistently, not yet.

My mom ran into the same problem before
she went missing.

Right now, it just holds energy for a
few seconds and then outputs to the

nearest battery.

Just need funding, but Loxos won't even
take a meeting with me. So just go show

it to them.

I can't just go drop it on their
doorstep.

I can't just go drop it on their
doorstep.

Who could you show it to?

Luxos Energy stock prices continue to
plummet as investors lose confidence in

the conglomerate's renewable energy
programs.

There seems to be no end in sight to the
worldwide supply chain bottlenecks and

raw material shortages, which are
further exacerbating Luxos Energy's

to find... Kennedy Blake.

Kennedy, we're rerouting your flight and
relocating you to headquarters.

For how long?

Tesla's designs for the atom particle
liberator were incomplete, so we're

struggling for a consistent power
source.

Your time is running out.

Threats are not solutions, Vigo. We will
execute on schedule.

I want this just as badly as you do. I
hope so.

I make promises, not threats.

Think he means it?

I think my daughter has her work cut out
for her.

Kennedy.

Kennedy.

Were those the Project Daybreak backers?

Is it still on schedule?

Not at all. But that is why you are
here.

I want you to take over as Head of
Technological Development and lead the

efforts of Daybreak.

I won't let you down.

Good.

Because everything that we are rides on
the success of this project.

Now, Neil has your credentials and will
handle your relocation.

And this whole pantsuit thing?

No more.

I'd like to see you in pencil skirts
from now on.

Pencil skirts.

Good to see you too, Mom.

You have a lunch meeting with the
engineers.

This will catch you up.

Good morning and welcome to Luxos
Energy, leading the world in creating

sustainable energy for all.

Miles Fletcher, here to see your head of
development.

One moment.

Bill, cliffhanger, huh?

Yes, actually.

You're not on Miss Blake's agenda.

Oh, I know, but I'm sure she'll want to
see me.

That's not how this works.

Call her and schedule an appointment.

And grab yourself a juice box on the way
out.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the
Alkanet.

The Alkanet is a revolutionary,
sustainable energy device.

If you'll check your phones, you'll see
they're powering up from energy my

machine is pulling from atoms in the
air.

If Luxos will fund this project,
Together we can take free energy to the

Sorry, it... What? Sorry.

It's still in beta.

Please don't take me.

Let's go.

Come on. Come on, guys.

If I could just talk to Miss Blake. You
can make her your one phone call.

From prison.

Prison?

To Kennedy Blake.

That's enough.

What is going on here?

I was hoping to work for you, actually.

So you thought you would just fry our
lobby with an EMP? Okay, it's not an

It's a perpetual energy machine.

Right.

Well, if that's true, and it's not a
bomb, then the feds will have no reason

hold you.

Call this in.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I just wanted to show you my work.

I saw. Come on. I had to cobble together
the atom particle liberator from third

-hand parts.

All I need are better parts and funding.
The principles of atmospheric induction

are solid. If not, then... How did this
happen?

If you had better funding, who's to say
you wouldn't blow up the entire block

next time?

My mom.

She knew this would work.

Luxus believed her.

She used to work here. Yeah, I know. I
saw her when I ran your ID.

But that was ages ago, okay? And we need
real solutions now, not junkyard

thermal coils.

This is proof of concept for a
sustainable energy machine that needs

development.

Just let me show you this can work.

Show me more than five seconds of
induction without blowing anything up.

Then maybe we can talk about a deal.

Thank you.

You won't be disappointed.

I look forward to seeing some updates.

And we sent the Wonder Machine back to
your house.

My house?

You owe me a phone.

You owe me a juice box.

Dad, I can explain.

What is this, Miles?

Machine I've been working on.

She does.

Right now, it's a pyrotechnic mechanism
used for blowing up cell phones. Cut the

crap, Miles.

It's your mom's work.

Thousand things that you can make like
this.

This was her whole life.

And look where it got her. Losos killed
her.

That makes no sense.

She was their best engineer.

So what, she just disappeared?

She just up and walked out on us?

They are an energy company, Dad.

There's no big plot.

Oil spills.

Price fixes.

This is different.

She was just trying to solve a crisis
that Tesla trusted us to fix. Oh, this

again. Aren't you sick of living like
this?

Cat's rations, blackouts. If I could
just fix what my... You put yourself in

danger, Miles.

This work, it cost her her life.

You don't know that.

She can still be out there. She's gone,
Miles.

It's been 13 years.

Grow up.

I'm sorry.

But I'm not going to let the same thing
happen to you.

One

day

you'll thank me.

Shit!

Incoming phone call from Dad.

Miles?

I almost had it, Newt.

I'm almost there.

Care to elaborate?

How can this work today?

For a second, Luxus was interested.

What happened?

Dad messed it up.

He just doesn't get it.

He destroyed the Alchemist.

My condolences.

All that work just... up in smoke.

Just like the phoenix in your mom's
Greek mythology books. A mythological

that burns, but from the ashes rises
again in time.

This is the beauty of simplicity, the
patterns of the universe.

But we need the keys to unlock them.
Without 369, we have no keys.

That better be a hologram of Miles, I'm
seeing, because the real Miles is in his

bed.

You know the rule, bedtime before
blackout.

I was worried about Newt.

Did you finish him?

Almost.

Come here.

So, see?

The power runs through here.

But there's not enough room for the
higher amp fuses.

Any solutions?

We can get smart fuses.

Or we can run smart wires through here
instead.

Beauty and simplicity.

Get those wires tomorrow.

Is it broken?

Yeah, it's very old.

It was passed down to us from Nikola
Tesla's family.

It helps inspire me to finish his energy
work.

Tesla was a hard worker.

Never gave up.

Just like you.

Say goodnight to Newt.

Night, Newt.

One more story, please.

Those big eyes aren't always going to
work on me, kiddo.

The one with the offensive evil driver,
period.

There's beauty in simplicity.

Patterns of the universe.

You need the keys to unlock them.

Dude, look this up.

Discovered. Microfiche.

Film used to store printed information.

To see them, one must use an extra
special old -timey machine.

Where'd we find one?

Wow, anyone getting Ghostbusters vibes?

Shh, I'm whispering.

These are the missing schematics.

It's Tesla's plan for processing high
amounts of energy.

Shouldn't those be donated to the
Institute's Museum of Technology? Are

kidding? Look, this is what I need to
make the alchemist work.

I'm not giving them away.

Or I could contact the museum's curator.

Mute?

Mute.

Let's get these printed.

Newt, pull up Mom's archival footage of
Tesla.

Our biggest challenge is getting this
free energy to last more than a few

seconds. We can draw it from the
ionosphere, but we have no way to

How high up is the ionosphere?

Sorry, unmute.

150 ,000 feet.

What's that?

To contain it. Now, I'm working on a
solution to create consistency. It's

cascading ionization.

Theoretically, we should be able to
control the energy versus the erratic

quality you're seeing now.

That's what he's talking about, getting
the process up to the ionosphere.

Tesla couldn't stabilize the energy.

Mom's design could, at least
temporarily.

If I'm right about these schematics, I
can figure out how to get the process up

that high.

This might actually work.

We might actually harness lightning.

Mine could never have worked.

Couldn't handle the energy throughput.

Well, perhaps then burning it to the
ground was what it needed to rise again.

We're going to rebuild her, Newt.

With Mom's design and my inductors
combined, we can make Tesla's plan work.

What shall we call it?

Phoenix.

I foresee a problem.

You lack sufficient funds to purchase
the capacitors for this build.

Perhaps you should be searching for a
job. The Institute.

Searching their website for job
openings.

All black.

Interesting choice for a job interview.

Hold the blueprints for the Institute,
check public records, and pay the 20

bucks to access the files. And figure
out what the 10 p .m. blackout

vulnerability window is.

This is feeling less and less reputable.
Mute.

Jamie, how did you get in here? I can
help.

Go, go.

Hello?

Someone there?

I can do this part.

I don't even want to know how you know
how to do that.

Hello, ladies.

No wonder you have girl problems.

You're just going to take them?

Borrow them.

Go! Come on!

Get back here!

Stop right there!

I'll pay you!

Move it! Come on!

I'll teach you!

Robot! Get over here!

When I'm back in cash, I'm taking you
shoe shopping.

Again. How? Your keypad has a skeleton
key.

Is that shock wire coming, Newt?

You may need to adjust my humor
settings.

Where were you guys?

Could ask you the same question.

Strikeout with Jack McDummy? McDonough.
Nick don't care.

Stop stalling. Where were you guys?

Just borrowed a few.

Especially parts from my eye.

You took my kid brother and stole parts
from the institute?

Miles, they have cameras all over that
place.

I waited until the blackout. I'm not
stupid.

Sure about that?

Cameras have backup batteries.

But we were dressed in dark clothes.

Well, kind of.

He came on his own.

I helped.

Accomplice to a felony.

Not something to brag about.

Look who's talking, Miss Malware.

Okay, look, I know you're upset, but
once Luxo sees what this thing is

of, I mean, come on, it's gonna make all
of our lives better. It'll change the

world.

The next time you take Jamie along to
commit a crime, you'll see just how

Batwoman I can get.

Got it?

Huh?

Hey, come back in a couple days. I'll
show you what those capacitors are for.

Really?

Spoils the war.

Come on, little accomplice.

Newt,

play a beat music.

Playing a beat music.

Hey, Phoenix.

Let's rise.

Okay,

so Ms. Blake, you want me to keep you
updated on the progress, and I've made a

huge breakthrough with the technology.

And I'm beginning to build the larger
version of the machine, so stay tuned.

The coils that pull energy from the
ionosphere are going in.

It's really starting to take shape.

Using the capacitors, the machine should
be able to power itself.

Uh,

test number one of the Phoenix?

Dude,

I think it's working!

So the tests are going really well.

It did not work.

So it needs some minor adjustments.

Purchasing fire extinguisher.

Good call.

Perhaps the name Phoenix was premature.

Newt?

Newt.

If

I can get the

capacitor to last longer, the inductor
cells I'm building will have enough time

to contain the energy.

Shall we run one final test?

No.

Turn five seconds off that last clip and
send it to Kennedy.

She can see our last shot in person.

You finished it?

And it's not gonna, like, blow us up?

I mean, it doesn't look like it's going
to explode.

Then again, it didn't look like it was
going to explode last night either.

Well, then let's hope you have a fire
extinguisher on hand.

Not to worry.

Fire safety is our top priority.

Tell that to our receptionist.

What are you?

I am Newt.

Cute.

No, Newt.

Kennedy, Miss Blake, these are my
assistants,

Piper and Jamie.

And this is your lab?

Yeah.

All the greats started in places like
this, right?

And you think you're one of them?

I know I am.

So is my mom.

Well, if this works, then I'm sure she'd
be really proud of you.

She was always proud of me.

Well, let's see it.

Could you turn off the generator,
please, and can you help me with the

cell?

Okay.

You might want to take a few steps back,
just in case.

Each step back significantly reduces the
probability of death.

Okay, I know they worked for a few
seconds, but the problem is just the

capacitors. If you had a custom shield
to protect them from the high

you could scale it up and then you
could... You could power an entire

The world.

Exactly.

You would need a lot of resources for
that build. A huge team.

That's why I came to you.

You in?

for a few seconds, but the problem is
just the capacitors. If you were able

to... He's building the atom particle
liberator.

What does he want?

Pay out for the design and credit for
the invention along with his mother.

Who's his mother?

Regina Fletcher.

Regina. She was head of development
here?

She was a thief, actually.

She was stealing our technology and
sabotaging our designs.

She had to be fired.

Then she just disappeared.

Her husband became obsessed.

He was slandering us with conspiracies.

But he's just a blue -collar demolition
guy. He's a nobody.

Is there something I should know?

Of course not.

He was just a widower processing grief.

For 13 years?

We'll get right on this.

I'm very proud of you, Kennedy.

Oh, leave it.

And pencil skirts, dear.

How did he do this alone?

Our people confiscated all her work.

Well, Regina must have hidden something.

Tell Vigo that we now have a consistent
power source.

And take this to them personally.

Shall we draft a deal for the kid?

No. Just pull his address.

And if he tries to make a public stir?

Then we bury him in legal fees.

It's a shame your mom wasn't around long
enough to teach you the art of

subtlety.

In the days of old, there was a Greek
god named Zeus who harnessed the power

lightning. But a giant named Porphyreon
thought to steal the lightning from him

and use it as a weapon for evil. Regina.

Hey, I'll finish the story tomorrow,
okay? Okay.

Okay. Night, Mom.

Good night.

Here, hop in.

I've got to go in.

Catherine says it's urgent.

Don't. Phil. Just say that you were
asleep.

Better yet, don't go back at all.

I can't.

But leaving now would be like handing
over Zeus's lightning to Porfirion.

Okay, geek mythology is not my forte
here.

Just trust me.

That's all I'm asking.

They have been following us all week.

Just tell me what it is you found out.
Please, let me help.

I have a plan.

Don't worry.

Why hasn't she called yet?

What I showed her was insane.

We're in a path in the concrete.

She's going to call.

She's going to call.

What's your plan when she does call?

Help them build a bigger version.

Release it to the world.

Sustainable energy for all.

You really think they'll do that?

It's literally their mission statement.
It's the whole reason their company

exists.

For a genius, you sure are dumb.

That's just on their website so they can
feel good about themselves.

No company gets that big by giving
things away for free.

You need to do some laundry.

Get right on that.

First, here, call it work.

So you don't have to keep bugging me
about playing with Newt.

You got me a present on your birthday?

What?

Isn't it today?

I guess I kind of forgot.

Piper didn't.

How about we leave the Batcave for some
nachos?

I really can't leave the Phoenix alone.

Please! One round of nachos. Remember
the melted cheese?

I do love the melted cheese.

This is a very bossy family.

What's your dad doing tonight?

No birthday plans?

Jamie, can you get me some water?

But you still have some.

There. I'm very thirsty.

Now shoot.

Miles, what happened?

Nothing.

You're so bad at lying.

We had a fight.

He wrote the first version of my machine
on purpose.

What? Why?

He's crazy.

Thinks Lux has killed my mom and is out
to get me.

But still, you must miss him.

How would you know?

Because I miss mine and... He didn't
even care about me.

All I miss is being able to do laundry
for free.

The smell is unbearable.

Newt, you don't have smell receptors.

I've calculated relative stench.

No. Wait. No, no.

No way you stay in this car.

Come on.

What are you doing?

That's my stuff.

Actually, it's not.

See, we bought the property and we own
everything on it. No. It's not quite

legal. You could just hire a team and
take it up in court if you want.

Kennedy.

You're not like this. You're not like
her.

Right?

This is exactly who she is.

Your mom could not complete the job.

And now you've done it for us.

Regina would be so proud of you. Miles,
don't. You're trespassing on my

property. But don't worry.

I won't press charges.

I'm not a monster.

Let's go, Kennedy.

I took everything.

My work, those blueprints.

There must still be something.

There's nothing.

She never called, and this is why.

I'm such an idiot.

We can fix this. We could sue or... And
pay for it with what, Piper?

Trying to help you. Your help is the
last thing I need right now.

What? You're the one who dragged me out
for a birthday dinner. I told you I

can't leave the Phoenix alone.

Now I have nothing left.

Huh. Well, forgive me for making sure
you celebrated your birthday.

I don't know why I bothered, since we're
clearly worth so little to you. You

have no idea what it's like to actually
build something.

You're a hacker.

All you do is tear down other people's
work.

That's not what I do.

Yes, it is. And you leave Jamie with me
for hours. Do you ever stop to think

that he might be getting in my way? How
could...

He loves you.

He looks up to you.

And some role model you are.

Lying to your dad, stealing so you can
change the world.

You don't want to change the world. You
want the world to tell you that you're

brilliant. Get out!

Come on, Jamie.

This is what I believe Eastern religions
refer to as karma.

Nude.

Well done, Kennedy.

You're already better at this job than
Regina ever was.

That's not very reassuring, considering
her job security.

Don't be absurd.

You're a Blake.

This is going to be your company one
day.

Dad, I...

Lexos

took everything.

The schematics.

My new machine. My new machine.

It worked this time, Dad.

Candy said I'd get a deal.

If the plan was just to steal it all
along.

I should have listened to you.

I just wanted to prove that I was
smarter than everyone.

That I wasn't a nobody.

You could be the dumbest kid on the
planet and you are still worth loving.

I get it, Miles.

You're... You're a rare breed.

But you're still going to have to pay
your dues in this world.

I was just trying to help you understand
that I was not trying to break your

spirit.

Or my machine.

That was wrong of me.

I just got so scared, you know, that it
was happening again. And your mom...

Dad, come on. No, no, no, no. Look, your
mom, she was scared.

She just wouldn't admit it.

She knew that there was something going
on other than energy work.

But she wanted to handle it herself.

Keep us out of danger.

And now here you are, you're working on
the same thing.

I guess I just thought if I could just
finish her work,

she'd come back.

She didn't leave you, Miles.

She was taken from you.

Taken.

She would never leave you.

She would fight every demon in Olympus
to stay with you.

Hades, actually.

Olympus was really good, guys.

Right, sorry, I don't, uh, I don't speak
geek.

I haven't thought of that book in a
while.

I have.

After her memorial, I gathered a bunch
of stuff that reminded me of her.

Call it a birthday present.

Welcome, Kennedy Blake.

Pull up the last footage tagged Regina
Fletcher.

Retrieving security footage from Luxos
employee vehicle storage tagged Regina

Fletcher, Head of Development.

This is the last footage tagged Regina
Fletcher on Luxos campus.

Confirm that this is the entire file.

Confirmed. This is the final clip in its
entirety, tagged Regina Fletcher, Head

of Development.

Mom, what did you do?

What's all this?

I think Mom left something in here.

Good evening, Catherine.

Gibberish. No, no, nothing your mom ever
did was pointless.

Didn't you say that mom found something
out?

The day before she disappeared?

Yeah. She said that leaving would be
like giving Porfirion lightning.

God knows what that meant.

Porfirion was an evil giant who waged
war against Olympus.

Lightning.

Lightning was Zeus' weapon.

So giving it to Porfirion... Right, he
would never do that.

So, so if Mom was Zeus, Luxus was
Porphyrion,

it was never about sustainable energy.

She found out she was making a weapon.

A weapon.

I thought this was all based on Hathor's
work. Wasn't he a good guy?

He was, but he got bitter towards the
end of his life.

Started designing weapons.

His most famous was a teleforce beam or
death ray.

I think the Phoenix could be modified to
power it.

It wasn't that she couldn't figure it
out. She wouldn't.

I ended her work.

I gave Luxos the lightning bolt.

I can't go fighting giants alone.

Jamie, come on, man.

I was a jerk, okay?

I shouldn't have said any of that to
you. I was angry, and I was taking it

on you.

You're a better friend than I deserve.

Come on, man. I gave you a robot. That's
got to count for something.

Leave us alone, Miles.

Please, I'm sorry.

Okay? I lost everything that night.

I know you know what that feels like.

I was a jerk.

Tell me something I don't know.

Okay.

You're the best person I know.

You're a hard worker.

You gave Jamie a family.

Look, I know I can be arrogant
sometimes.

Hmm.

Most of the time.

But I care about you.

You're the closest person I have.

Hey!

And you're the best assistant I have.

Look, I did something really bad.

I need your help to fix it.

The teleforce beam can obliterate an
entire city from a continent away.

It has to be destroyed.

Now I know my mom left a key in this
book.

She knew Luxus wouldn't even look twice
at a kid's book, but no idea what any of

this means.

You're sure it was on purpose?

Yeah.

I've scanned the pages, and it matches
no known language or equation.

Did she make up her own code?

Possible. Yeah, but there's no key in
here to decipher it.

An everyday phrase or lucky number is
typically used as the key in ciphers.

Tesla said there's beauty in simplicity.

Patterns of the universe.

But you need the keys to unlock them.
Three, six, nine.

Tesla was obsessed with those numbers.
So was my mom.

If there's beauty in simplicity, maybe a
cipher is too complex.

What if it was just every third, sixth,
and ninth letter?

I N E T H I

R T E E N

N I N N I

Y

It's not computer code that I know of.

Wait, the numbers don't go past 26.

Call those numbers out to me.

Nine.

Thirteen. Sixteen.

Fifteen.

Eighteen. Got it.

Twenty.

Sixteen.

Nine. This is exciting.

I know. It's like ping pong for computer
nerds.

Nineteen. Yep.

Sixteen.

Got it.

Twenty.

It's Python.

What? Python, basic computer code. This
is definitely malware.

I used a similar thing for that
government website gag.

Import Zeus Protocol.

It's a Trojan horse.

She hid the secret to destroying the
machine inside itself.

That's why she kept working on it.

What's a Trojan horse?

In ancient mythology, the Trojan horse
hid Greek soldiers allowing them to

into the city of Troy and win the war.

Just like the Death Star.

Exactly. What?

No, it isn't.

The exhaust port on the Death Star was
just a vulnerability.

Who's in there now?

Kimmy, focus.

We have to hack into the computer
system, run Mom's Trojan program to shut

thing down and make it useless.

I foresee a problem.

We do not know the location of the
device.

I think I can help with that.

You screwed me.

It's not that simple. It really is.

Miles. You led me on. You lied to me.
And you stole my work. Okay, well, my

mother lied to me about everything.

You people are single -handedly
destroying my mom's legacy. Do you

that? Well, your legacy is about to be
inventor of a weapon of mass

And you'll be the woman who stole it.

I had no idea Luxos was going to steal
your work, okay? But I'll own that.

You own all of it.

I'm trespassing.

Remember?

Miles, I'm sorry, but my mother is
building a deadly weapon.

They're going to fire it tonight from a
warehouse on the outside of town.

The teleforce beam is going to destroy
the entire East Coast power grid, and

then Luxos is going to step in and have
a worldwide monopoly on energy.

We have to stop it.

I think we found a code that can shut it
down, but we have to get in first.

Well, then we have to work together.

This is your ticket in.

This will get you inside.

The code.

Do you trust it?

I trust my mom.

She did everything for a reason.

Okay, then you just have to get to the
main terminal and run it. Just get to

main terminal. Why am I the only one
putting my neck on the line? I'm putting

neck on the line with the feds. My
mother has friends everywhere.

It's going to take every favor, every
threat that I have to be able to get

to move on her tonight. And that's
assuming she doesn't get wind of it

This is a serious long shot.

Seems like a good night to make our own
legacy.

Building schematics show several
entrances, but we have no way of knowing

positions. Any live satellite feed we
can use?

Negative. Access unavailable. I got it.

Newt, give me access to your interface.

Amazing. I formally request Piper make
any future upgrades to my software.

There we go.

Whoa, weapon palooza.

That's some big gun.

Newt, watch this feed for a while.
Analyze their movements and see if

pattern we can use.

Scanning for security patterns.

I think we might need some backup.

Maybe we can't just get some thug to do
this.

We're the only ones she can trust to
destroy it.

Someone else might try and steal it.

I have discovered a pattern to their
patrol.

Our best point of entry is here, but it
would require a diversion.

An alternate access point is here, which
would require climbing through a second

-story window.

But for 15 seconds every minute, it is
unobserved.

Small window.

I'm small.

Not a chance you're coming.

Why?

Well, I promised someone important to me
that I wouldn't take you with me next

time I committed a felony.

You know, I actually think he may be
able to help.

Really?

A lookout, that's it?

Lookouts are important.

Next time we have to save the world,
we'll bring you with us, promise.

Yeah, sure.

Newt, record any incriminating evidence
you observe.

Copy that.

Recording. Orby, keep your comms open
with Newt.

Those really are some big guns.

Newt, give us a countdown.

Your window will arrive in ten seconds.

And Jamie, let us know if you see
anything.

Five, four...

Three, two, one. You left before one.
Okay.

Okay, you guys are in the clear.

Catwoman?

Guys,

we've got company.

Come on, Mouse, jump.

Hurry, he's coming around that wall.

Okay, he didn't see you. Stay low.

Why are you so sweaty?

I'm nervous.

Never held a girl pan before?

No.

It's kind of nice.

I interrupt this pleasant moment to
remind you that the power plant will be

destroyed in less than one hour. Let's
go.

Sorry, buddy.

No, no, wait. Hold on.

It's Newt. He'll be fine.

Trip wire of ours, sub -level two.

Investigate immediately.

Orby, tell Newt they've got company.

I thought this machine was huge. Where
is it?

Newt, you found us. I am receiving
communication that we have guests.

Company. You've got company.

That's the line.

No movement yet.

Attempted murder.

Logged.

I've been holding him for long.

Come on!

Come on!

ID

required.

Wait, he's coming.

It's been a day now.

That's all we've done. Let Jimmy go
faster.

Access granted.

Teleforce beam target acquired.

Commencing calibration.

If this works, Catherine, it will be a
new dawn for both of us.

All right. Time for distraction.

I hope this works.

What was that?

Search the ground.

Perimeter compromised.

Initiate evacuation protocol. Don't let
this place draw any attention.

I have a hidden bunker. Come with me.

Newt, stay underneath in case we need
you.

It's about work.

You know Piper that tone isn't making me
go any faster Here we go.

I Wouldn't do that if I were you Step

away from the machine now

Your

mother always did have a knack for

getting in the way to

Resuming daybreak protocol.

Five minutes to launch.

But I guess I do owe this all to you.

Because you ensured Tesla's magnum opus
was brought to life.

Yeah, so much for your mission
statement.

What are you talking about?

Your invention will solve the world's
biggest energy problem.

We're just bypassing all the government
red tape it would take to get us there.

This is what you wanted, isn't it?

I like this.

Oh. Sometimes reality hurts.

I sure got.

Amy, you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Back away from my son.

Back away from my son!

So how'd you pull that off?

I got some extra demo charges from work.

Adding theft of explosives to list of
incriminating evidence. Nope, purge that

last one. Let's go.

I'm not leaving. This was your mom's
mistake. You were not paying for it.

on. Her mistake was not destroying it
sooner.

Energy sequence initiated.

Duck, duck, duck.

Wait. Dad, I can do this.

Let me pay my dues.

All available to control room. Intruders
located.

I'll hold him off.

Zeus protocol accepted.

Continuing arming procedures.

What? Oh, no. It's not stopping.

Let me try.

I'm locked out of the system. I can't
get into the terminal.

Maximum power achieved.

Generating teleforce beam.

I thought you said that code would shut
this thing down and make it useless. I

assume that's what it did.

David, get down!

News protocol

accepted.

We gotta go, we gotta go. Go, run, run,
run!

There's too many of them!

Miles, let's go!

Come on!

Newt!

Miles, come on!

I can stop it! I know I can! It's gonna
blow!

Your mom's cold words!

Teleforce beam generation complete.

60 seconds to launch.

Come on, fat guy, stop! Move!

Come on, bud, move it! Where the heck
did I go?

10, 9,

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3,

2, 1.

Everybody get down!

You did good.

Two miles.

Great job, Bill.

Just wanted to be part of the moment.

Newt?

My entire CPU flashed before my eyes.

It's all right, bud.

We'll get you back to fighting shape.

Kennedy? You wouldn't. You were wrong
about me, Mom.

I look great in suits.

Burnt to the ground, as requested.

Nice work.

Here, a tool of bad guys doing crimes.

Thanks.

I have something for you, too.

You deserve to have this.

It's all of your mother's energy
research.

Her legacy should live on.

So what now?

First, I think I have some federal
cooperating to do.

But then Luxos will make you a deal, and
we take perpetual energy all over the

world.

I want the title to the land my workshop
is on, and I retain the rights to the

Phoenix.

And a guarantee it'll never be used in a
military application.

A scholarship, under my Regina's name.

Done, done, and done.

Anything else?

An unlimited natural gift card to
Alfonso.

Okay. You have a deal?

Mr. Pletcher, come with me, please.

Mr. Fletcher, thank you so much for
coming. Right this way.

I read your thesis on Tesla's work, and
I know you'll love the six of it.

Now, I'm working on a solution to create
consistency called cascading

ionization.

Theoretically, we should be able to
control the energy versus the erratic

quality you're seeing now.

If only I could harness it into a
consistent being, we would have

limitless power.

This is the beauty of simplicity, the
patterns of the universe. But we need

keys to unlock them.

Without 369, we have no keys.

Need a ride?

Oof, I don't know.

I don't think I'm supposed to get in
cars with strange girls.

Ew!

Nice kicks. How do you like them?

Sneakers, not squeakers.

Newt, do they get it?

Confirmed. Replacements for borrowed
capacitors delivered.

Let's go. I've got a gift card burning a
hole in my pocket.

Alfonso? Newt, play up. He needs it.

You know, I always thought I wanted to
be one of the great.

But I've learned it was never about
that.

Holding the lightning doesn't make you a
hero.

It's what you choose to do with it that
matters.
