I put a shock to your system!

"Static Shock!"

Speed it up. We don't have all night.

Why you sweatin' me, dude? The guards are on ice.

The alarms's shut off. Everything's covered.

Huh?

Aah!

What the heck is up with that?

You mean, what up with that?

Either use slang properly, or don't use it at all.

It's a kid on a flying manhole!

I don't care if it's Aladdin on his magic carpet.

Get him!

♪ Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey ♪

Metal weapons and dumb thugs.

How easy does it get?

Aah! Come on, let's get out of here!

Like turning on lights in a roach motel.

That's my taser punch. Shocking, isn't it?

I got him, dude, I guess.. Huh?

Okay, you caught me off guard.

I'm new at this, so sue me!

Not that I have a curfew or anything

but I really gotta wrap this up.

Stick around, fellows. You've got company.

Piece of cake with frosting and sprinkles.

My first bad guy beatdown, and I hardly broke a sweat!

Hard to believe that just two days ago

I was the last person you'd call hero material.

♪ Check me out now will ya I got the looks that thrill ya ♪

♪ If you're down I'll fill ya ♪

Yeah. Comin' up like weeds.

Hey, Puff Daddy, you're taking a long time

for a guy with only five whiskers!

At least I'm growing mine on purpose.

Just hurry up.

And give your little weak rapping a rest.

Aw, don't forget your dog collar!

Sisters!

Aah! Dang static electricity.

Isn't it time we got some hardwood floors, people?

Sorry, son. I'm in a hurry this morning.

I feel you, pops. Got a big day in front of me myself.

Big, big, big!

I'm taking my friendship with Frieda to another level.

- Gonna ask her to homecoming. - What'd she ever do to you?

What's this? An egg smoothie?

You know, that's just the way mama made them.

Funny, I don't recall ever needing a straw to eat hers.

Come on, Virgil. Your sister went to all this trouble.

Least you could do is give them a try.

Hmph.

Mama, if you're listening, I could use some help here.

Hello?

Hey, Teddy.

Yeah, I really liked that lecture last night.

Tonight? You mean a real date?

Let me check my schedule.

Of course, I have a schedule.

'No, I don't have a little black book. It's paisley.'

Good looking out, moms.

Mmm, mmm. Fluffy egg goodness.

- V-man! - Richie!

Is today gonna be that day or what?

If you mean me and Frieda, of course, today's the day.

Man, it's on!

Hey.

Yo, here's your chance, bro.

Let me hear that strong rap you're gonna drop on her.

Well, Frieda, we've known each other for a long time now

and I was kind of wondering if you would do me the honor...

Snore! "Do me the honor?"

Man, you sound like a form letter!

That's not gonna cut it with..

- Hey, Frieda! - Hey, guys.

Guess what, Mr. McDonald said

we could put up the decorations early this year.

Cool. Hey, look at me. I gotta go.

Good luck with your, uh, test.

Where were you this weekend, Virgil?

I've been dying to talk to you about homecoming.

- Oh, really? - Yeah, I need your advice.

You know Eddie the quarterback?

I heard he wants to take me to the dance.

But Dave also left a message, and Cleo said that Seth Gray

wanted my phone number. Isn't it wild?

I'm juggling three hotties!

You know, Frieda, hot isn't everything.

In some circles, wit and, uh..

Offbeat charm still count for a lot.

In fact, I was wondering if you would do me the honor...

Hey, Frieda. Lookin' good.

Aah!

Smell good, too.

F-stop, you need to brush up on body language 101.

Hers says, "Not in this lifetime."

- Ggrr. - Aah!

Ah!

Let's see if your face can understand

what my fist is saying.

Aah!

Yo, I know you're not sweatin' my man Virgil, Francis.

Nah, Wade, we were just playing.

Here, Virg.

Catch you later, Virgil.

Tangling with F-stop? Are you crazy?

The dude makes Norman Bates look like Mr. Rogers.

Tell me something I don't know!

If it wasn't for Wade, I'd be looking for a good

plastic surgeon right about now.

Yeah, straight up, V.

Hey, if any more static breaks out between you and F-stop

you know I got your back.

- Thanks, man. - Peace!

And out.

If only he knew kung fu.

Hey!

I'm picking up where I left off, chump.

Come on, guys!

Oh, gee, c-can't we do this later, fellas?

'A beatdown just doesn't feel right'

'without lockers and dim school lighting.'

Virgil, the jokester.

Laugh your way out of this, funny man.

F-stop! Wade and his homey headed our way!

You'll be seeing more of me, Virg. Believe that.

'Ah, Wade.'

I had 'em just where I wanted 'em, man!

Meet me under the stone bridge in a half.

Half-hour? But I, I gotta meet my pops in a half-hour!

- I... - In a half.

Say, son, where were you this afternoon?

Well, dad, the nice gangbangers invited me for tea and cookies.

Son, don't you know that bangers are dangerous?

With all due respect, dad, well, duh!

Aah!

Gee, it's so nice out. It's a shame to be indoors.

- Welcome to our crib, Virgil. - Cozy.

This place should be on that show, "This Old Warehouse."

I like you, Virgil. You're funny.

And you're smart, but keeping Francis off your butt

takes too much of my time.

I-I never asked you to do that, Wade.

- Hear that? - Dissin' Wade?

- He must be crazy! - Word!

'That punk Francis is looking for street-cred, young brother.'

One day, he's gonna catch you out there

and I won't be around.

Sick dude like him, who knows what he'll do then.

Gee, I was kinda hoping he'd get bored of me

and go terrorize a tank.

This is no joke, Virgil.

There's only one way you're gonna save your skin.

- Roll with my crew. - Me? You don't want me!

I'm only 14, and I'm too stringy to be a banger!

Don't front, Virgil.

I'm offering you life insurance.

You join up, and F-stop will back off quick.

He ain't lookin' to tangle with this posse.

- That's right up, dude. - Swear you truth.

I feel what you're saying, but it's my pops!

He's got a teeny little problem with gangs

and I'm too young to be homeless.

Your pops gonna watch your back all day?

He gonna beat on F-stop for you?

'Always said you were smart, Virgil.'

'Don't prove me wrong now.'

- Football injury, huh? - Yes, sir.

Two things, one..

Since when do you play football without a helmet?

And two, since when does your narrow behind

play football at all?

Who asked you, miss nosy?

Pops, can I be excused? I'm really sore.

Sure, son.

Come on, dad. Football?

He'll talk about it when he's ready.

Ahh!

- Hello? - Tell me it's not true.

Tell me you did not join Wade's crew!

- Where'd you hear that? - Word's all over, Virg!

It's like they want everyone to know.

But I didn't! Not exactly.

I mean, I didn't say yes, I just sort of nodded

'like I was thinking on it.'

Jeez, Virgil, your mom died from gang fire.

Don't you think I know that?

What am I gonna do?

I got the F problem big time.

Yeah? Well, now you got the Wade problem, too.

He's gonna expect favors, man.

Okay, okay, I'll squash this.

Tell him there's been a misunderstanding.

Maybe I could be a banger water boy or something.

Hold on. I got an incoming. Hello?

Meet us at the docks. Now. Gate 10.

We're taking care of your problem tonight.

Wade? Wade!

Terrific.

Hello? Aah!

Keep your mouth shut.

What's going on?

There's gonna be a major throw-down tonight

with all the crews in the city.

- Wade, we gotta talk! - Shh. Look!

Time to go the permanent route, little bro.

This way.

Oh, man! I stepped into it big this time!

Virgil?

This is gonna be fun.

'Freeze!'

You are in a restricted area.

Drop all weapons and step into the open.

- Oh! Go! Get out of here! - Go! Go! Go!

What's going on?

Grab your mask.

I'm home. I'm alive!

Get.. Ah!

Dang static electricity! Whoa!

Down, boy!

Whew!

- Don't slam the doors. - Yes, sir.

Huh?

Whoa!

Dad's razor! It's possessed!

I'm a human fuse box!

I got it! I got it!

Hello? Virgil! What happened?

You are gonna trip!

Meet me in the auto junkyard ASAP. Bye!

Say what?

Virgil? Yo, Virgil!

I'm worrying about his butt

and he's rushing me off the phone and..

- Whoa! - Tell me that's not cool!

How the heck did you...

There was an explosion last night.

There was this gas.

It changed me, Richie.

Check it out!

Double whoa!

Yeah, no more asking my pops to borrow his car, dude!

Uh, you don't even drive yet, V.

Whatever! Oh, and I rather like this.

Talk about your static cling!

V-man, you could so be a superhero!

I could, couldn't I?

Whoa!

Come on, V. We gotta get you some gear.

Not your best look, chicken legs.

Alright, now this is just embarrassing.

Nah, you look like a battery commercial.

Next!

We've got ourselves a winner!

♪ Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey ♪

And that's pretty much how it all began.

Easy. Oh, oh, man!

We need a ladder.

Guess I should ground 'em.

The new lab computers!

Oof!

Those lights go over there.

Hey, I thought Virgil was coming.

Oh, w-w-well, he had to, uh, get his VCR fixed.

Yeah, you know, how it flashes 12 o'clock, 12 o'clock?

That.

- Check it out! - What is it?

Special delivery.

I had business at the warehouse, and look what I found!

Who are you?

The name's Static.

I put a shock to your system.

Good line!

I see you still got some work to do.

Fortunately, I'm what you call

one of your all-purpose superheroes.

It's beautiful!

Not as beautiful as the sight I see, ma cherie.

Why isn't it this easy for Virgil?

See ya!

He's a natural!

Oh! It's getting worse. They keep mutating.

Is the hazmat team here yet?

He's burning up!

What a trip!

This is gonna be fun.
