- Good morning, students!

As you all know,

today is an extremely important day for our school.

This afternoon,

Kaeluss is coming by to choose one of you lucky students

to take his place.

So that means we're all gonna follow the rules.

No flying in the hallways, keep your abilities to yourself,

and please, please, be on your best behavior.

Have a super day, everyone.

- Don't listen to them!

Kaeluss represents corrupt corporation.

Don't let your powers be bought.

- Nice sign you dork.

- Good luck marching by yourself.

Our abilities are not for sale!

Our abilities are not for sale!

- We will not be controlled.

Well, metaphorically speaking.

- Once upon a time,

there was a story of a cat and a dog.

One day, you might be in line to take over for Kaeluss.

Do you really think so?

- Trust me, I'm school president.

Nice work, Deja

- Thank you, sir.

It's not work if you love it.

What's taking so long?

Going as fast as I can.

Just keep an eye out for Principal Hughes.

I don't know how I let me talk me into this.

Stop it!

The therapist said it's not healthy for me

to argue with myself.

Just gotta make sure I'm the first one to meet Kaeluss.

Do you see anyone?

Look, I sorry I got mad.

You know I respect me.

Don't go silent.

Where'd I go?

Sir, I'm just,

it's not what it looks like, I.

- Come on, Deja. Pull yourself together.

You'll laugh about that later.

- Wait a minute,

these 40 lunches aren't mine.

But where did I put my 40 lunches?

Can I still eat these though?

- Destroying personal property,

throwing a teacher's car,

throwing a teacher,

and destroying a desk.

Anything you wanna say for yourself?

Destroying my desk.

Don't mess with the bull young man,

you'll get the horns.

She's so pretty.

I bet Kaeluss chooses her for sure.

- There she is, boys.

The whale of Kaeluss Academy.

What do you say, Liv? You wanna be my Moby Dick?

- Sorry Jeff,

I'm not into guys who play with their harpoons.

Get it off me!

Come on.

- And word of advice,

girls don't like being compared to whales.

- Okay, okay!

Help me.

Go do something!

Sir.

Okay, please don't be Mr. Kent.

Please don't be Mr. Kent.

And be ready for Mr. Kent.

Okay, please don't, hey!

Who mopped the floor?

I specifically said no mopping the floor today!

Okay, I'm coming!

Oh please don't be Mr. Kent.

Please don't be Mr. Kent!

Please don't be Mr. Kent.

Good morning Mr. Kent!

You uh,

caught me by surprise.

I was just having some last minute

paintings done up for Kaeluss's arrival.

- You have paintings done?

- You know what?

I'm gonna stop this before it snowballs.

I'm just, just very out of shape.

- Mr. Hughes,

when I ran that school,

I made it a priority to be in the best shape of my life

to teach the kids the importance of physicality.

- I'm not sure you've mentioned that before, have you?

- Oh, I'm sorry.

Is my diligence bothering you?

I guess I figured that since Kaeluss is coming down

to pick his successor,

we should at least look as if we are prepared.

- Yes, sir. We are.

You know, just sorting out a few last minute details.

Details?

Yep, nothing to worry about.

Just typical teenage angsty kind of things.

- Now, let me give you my 43 plan for a successful day.

- Of course.

Nobody appreciates those 43 point plans

like me, sir.

Uh, let me just grab a pen.

I know I have one around here.

I think I just put it,

uh, hey.

No thank you, you old fart.

That was the wrong button,

I can still hear you.

Sir,

- Uh huh. - It's a funny thing, um,

old fart is what all the cool kids are saying these days

like "What up, my old--"

Just make sure you do your job, old fart.

- Yes. Okay, thank you sir.

That is going to come up again.

Can't believe this is happening.

I ruined my whole life.

- Relax. It's one day.

- It's the day.

He's coming to pick somebody and I'm stuck in here.

- Who cares?

That sellout represents everything

that's wrong with abilities anyway.

- Just because protecting the world

comes with money and fame,

doesn't make you a sellout.

- Spare us your fake values, drama queen.

- Show you how fake I can be.

- Try it.

I'd like to see what sleeping beauty over there

can do anyway.

- Oh, cat fight!

Oh, wait a minute. Was that sexist?

Oh I'm sorry. I just started here.

I don't know any of your abilities.

I actually kinda hope one of you turns

into a giant cat now

so I don't seem like that guy.

- Uh, take a seat please girls.

Okay!

As you all know,

today is a very important day

and you're here because

you've all proven that you can't act like civilized heroes.

- Liv? Yes?

- What are we supposed to do all day?

- Don't care. Honestly.

You can do whatever you want as long as you do it in here.

You can catch up on your homework,

think about what brought you here,

or uh, yeah, take a lap like Lunam over there.

That's fine, you can do that.

Decided I'm gonna put the effort

into the kids who deserve this day.

Frankly I'm a little tired of

fixing the squeaky wheel all the time.

- Wait, does one of you turn into a wheel?

- Okay, I still have a lot.

- What are you doing?

- What does it look like? I'm leaving.

- Oh I'm pretty sure Principal Hughes was clear on us

staying in here for the day.

For all we know, this is a test.

If we do as we're told, we can still meet him.

- Who's in?

- Better than sitting in here all day.

- Can we grab a bite to eat?

- Why not instead we make a list of ways

we can better improve ourselves?

I'll go first.

I can brush my teeth more.

- Andrasta, how about you?

- Man this thing is really tight.

- You're doing it wrong. Move.

- Well hello there!

They call me Metabolism.

I just transferred here and anyways,

my mom said I should try and make some new friends.

- Great story kid.

Sure it took a lot of courage for someone who looks like you

to talk to someone who looks like me,

but I will save you some effort.

I'm out of your league.

I'm into older or bigger, muscular guys.

- Well,

my mom always says the worst they can say is no.

Guess I'll call her

and let her know she was wrong.

- Move, I'll summon a monster on the other side of the door.

Okay, relax pageant queen.

I'm gonna try to find a way to the other side.

- No one cares about your little puppet strings, okay?

- He locked it.

- You think?

- That's his ability. He locks things.

- How do you know?

- I think he, um, comes here a lot.

- Alright students. Settle down.

Alright.

Franklin.

Claire? Claire, come on.

- Settle down!

- Thank you.

Students,

I don't need to tell you how important today is.

This is the most important day in our school's history,

you know that.

Someone here is going to be

given the greatest honor a hero can receive

and you've all worked extremely hard for this.

I'm so proud of you. All of you.

I want you to know

no matter which one of you is chosen,

every one of you in this room is my hero.

- He's here.

- Oh.

Claire, how do I look?

New tie? Okay? Okay.

- Clear for entry.

- Good to be back.

- Welcome to-- - Principal Hugs.

- Ms. Potter, Kaeluss's personal assistant.

And I believe it's Mr. Hughes, yes?

- No, he's right. It's Principal Hugs.

Please!

- That's it.

I officially missed it.

Way to go, Deja!

Nice work, moron!

- Hey, quit being so hard on yourself.

Yourselves.

Do we use plural?

- This is so stupid,

I should be out there getting picked.

- What a shock.

Liv assumes another thing will be handed to her

on a silver platter.

- I don't need anything handed to me.

My ability makes me more powerful

than anyone in this school.

- Something to say?

Or do you just grunt?

- You have no idea what you're asking for,

princess.

- Are you kidding me?

- I'm sorry, us princesses can be so clumsy.

- What is your problem?

You could've killed me!

- Whoa, I don't want anything to do with this.

- You have a fantastic school here, Mr. Hughes.

- Oh! Thank you very much!

Yeah. We like it, you know.

And I always say

work hard and you will hardly work.

- Is that so?

- I actually have no idea. I just made that up.

I'm very nervous. I'm just trying not to vomit.

- Please don't.

Nothing to be nervous about.

Kaeluss has been looking forward to this.

- It's okay, I've got it under control.

Key is to smile. It suppresses the gag reflexes.

These, uh, your people?

- Oh yes.

Just a few members of Kaeluss's security team.

- That's funny.

The most powerful man on Earth needs security.

- Honestly, they mostly handle fans.

Don't even get me started on fans.

I was a fan one time and--

I was reading this book,

it's talking about love at first sight.

I don't know if I believe in all that.

Where would you like this ma'am?

- Just place it on the stage, please Able?

Part of security as well?

- That is the exam.

It was designed to analyze each student's abilities

to help narrow down a choice for Kaeluss.

- Oh. Very high tech.

I would be helpful

if I got the students to start right away.

- That would be super duper.

Just tell them to place their hand on it

and the exam will do the rest.

- Piece of cake.

- Students, the time has come.

One at a time, we are gonna form an orderly line.

And we are going to calmly place our hands

onto the machine.

This will help Kaeluss pick a successor.

I don't, one at a time.

Holly! We don't have the perfect oasis!

Don't!

I wouldn't worry about that,

Ms. Potter built that exam herself.

- Mr. Kaeluss, uh,

I didn't get a chance earlier when you were outside.

I just want to say what a honor it is to meet you.

- You know this school has come a long way

since that old coot Mr. Kent ran it.

I wish I had recorded you saying that.

Oh, it would've made a good ringtone.

- Uh Ms. Potter,

I assume everything's ready?

I'd hate to see a media mob ruin a glorious moment.

- Yes sir.

- Oh! You guys,

you don't have to worry about the media,

we're very isolated out here

for security purposes, so.

We do even have an internet connection or anything

except in my office,

which, of course, either of you are free to use.

Mi office es su office, es your office-o.

So, whatever you need!

- You are too kind, Principal Hugs.

- Said my name.

- What was that?

- Um, you know what?

We've been having some plumbing issues.

Recently, you know, uh,

kids with abilities and cafeteria fiber just.

Uh, I'm gonna go check it out.

You two go ahead, just get started and, uh,

just, I'll be right back.

- Are you sure?

Absolutely, absolutely. Go ahead.

- Should we get started?

- Absolutely.

- What is this?

- Oh! Had the craziest dream.

I was like in detention and I, I,

okay, not a dream.

Okay, at least I'm not naked.

- Sir I just wanted to say that I actually wasn't involved--

- Sit down!

All of you.

So it's not enough that you have to

ruin the day for yourselves,

now you have to ruin it for me too?

Glad you think that's funny

'cause now I'm gonna be down here babysitting all day.

I'm gonna miss the whole visit.

Anybody think maybe I would've enjoyed today?

Maybe would've been a lot of fun for me?

- Sir, maybe we were looking forward for today.

- You know what? Save it.

I'm just gonna do my head down and feel sorry for myself.

- All the students have applied.

- Perfect.

- Legacy.

What does it mean?

Is it about what we leave behind?

Or is it about setting the path

for the next hero to follow?

I look around this room

and I see so many heroes ready to step up,

take over where I leave off.

Maybe even one of your teachers.

Have you applied yet?

- Um, no sir.

- Well why not?

I mean teachers included.

Don't count yourself short. Step up!

What do you say students? Should your teachers apply?

Come on up!

When I started here,

we were the first with abilities.

And with each generation, we grow more and more powerful.

There's more power in this room today

than there ever has been before.

But who wants to hear me make a speech?

Let's find out

who is my replacement.

Now when I press this button,

the exam is gonna run its program

and tell us the mightiest hero that's

worthy of taking over.

In just a few seconds we'll know.

It's done.

And the hero best suited

to take my place is

me.

What's going on here?

- What's going on is I'm not stepping down.

No one is taking my place!

From now on, I rule over all of you!

- We're not just gonna stand by and let you do this!

- Oh, what's wrong?

Your abilities not working?

How could that have happened?

Oh! Oh, wait!

You voluntarily gave them to me!

You couldn't have made it more easy!

You literally brought every kid in the world with abilities

and put them in one room!

Thank you for that, by the way.

- Why are you doing this?

- Because I am sick and tired

of listening to men tell me where to go

and who to fight.

I am the future!

Now don't be frightened.

Hey, don't be scared.

While my people transform this place into my new fortress,

you're kinda like my first guests.

Maybe I should say hostages

but eh, to-may-toe, to-mah-toe.

Lock it down.

- It's gotta be over by now, right?

- Who do you think got it?

- Who cares? It's not me.

- Well done, sir.

- Thank you, Ms. Potter.

- Security has sealed the doors,

nobody can get in or out.

I check today's attendance and all the kids came to school.

- No doubt to see me, of course.

- No doubt, sir.

- Perfect.

Perfect, perfect.

Perfect plans make me very happy, Ms. Potter.

- Um, I, um.

- Well I don't like "Um".

"Um" is what comes before an excuse.

- It's just the computer showing 316 students

in the school today.

- Here comes that "Um".

- The exams only recording 310 captured.

Where are the other six?

- Detention.

Sir, I can send a team down.

We'll use the element of surprise.

- No, no. No need.

You catch more flies with honey than vinegar, Ms. Potter.

- I'm not sure I understand.

- Let's give them what they want.

We'll send them a personal invitation to meet their hero.

They're gonna fight over who gets to go first.

- Understood.

- Candy you take from a baby is always the sweetest.

- Principal Hughes.

Was Mr. Kaeluss deciding solely on abilities or

were they taking grades into account as well?

- I don't know.

They had a testing unit they designed,

so I guess is it favored abilities.

- Oh.

- You would've stood a good chance.

- You think?

- You all would've.

Opportunity is not just about being ready at the right time,

it's about being ready all the time.

Scoff if you like,

but someone in that auditorium just proved me right.

- Hey, who has the most powerful ability in the school?

That's impossible to say.

- Come on, that's lame.

That's like when you ask your parents

which kid they love most and they say both.

- Learned a little bit about Andrasta here.

- It's not. I mean, take Liv here for example.

She can summon demons from any shadow.

That's extremely powerful.

- Thank you.

- But no shadow, no ability.

It's not about your abilities.

It's about you, plain and simple.

Ms. Potter!

Is, uh, is everything okay?

- Of course.

But as it turns out,

Kaeluss is not willing to name a successor

until he sees the whole school.

So he's extended a personal invitation

for these students to be tested.

- We still have a chance!

I knew it!

- You sure do.

Come on, kids.

- Uh,

I'm afraid that's out of the question.

These students have to remain in detention.

- Please Principal Hughes.

This is a second chance.

- Kaeluss asked for you yourself to be there, Mr. Hughes.

He said that he may even choose you.

- I'm sorry,

I wouldn't be much of a principal if I went back on my word.

You're gonna have to tell him no.

- I guess we go with vinegar.

I can't see!

- Oh, lady!

What are you doing?

- All of you come with me now.

- You're hurting him!

- I suggest you do as I say and make the right choice.

- Hey lady,

we're the bad kids.

We never make the right choice.

- Woah! Action movie line guy.

That's what they should call you.

What happened?

- Sir, she hit you with something.

And she said we had to go see Kaeluss.

- Why would she do that? It doesn't make sense.

- I got this.

Tell us what's going on.

- Kaeluss has stolen the abilities

of everyone in the school.

He just need yours to complete phase one.

- No way.

- Kaeluss doesn't want anyone to succeed him.

Stealing your abilities is the only way

to ensure that he will be the only ability out there.

- Does she have to talk like that?

I mean, she sounds so robotic.

- No, I can switch it.

Oh yeah?

- His guards have locked down the school

to keep anyone from getting in or out.

He'll take over the world

and crush anyone that gets in his way.

- I don't like that voice.

- Yeah, change it.

- Guys, please. This isn't helping.

- Make her do an accent.

- Even when the world surrenders,

Kaeluss will wipe out the entire school

as a show of ability.

- Eliminate the whole school?

- Yeah, she just said that.

Man, they should call you Deja Vu!

- They do.

- Oh.

So what do we do?

- Okay, I gotta get you guys out of here.

I can unlock the doors if I can get to them.

- We can't run.

We have to go in there and fight them,

take them down.

- Says the peacekeeper.

- Don't include me.

- There's guards everywhere.

They'll rip you apart.

- I can handle guards.

- Alright. Everyone stop.

Alright? No one's fighting.

I'm gonna get you kids to safety,

I'll get word to Mr. Kent

and he can send some help.

- Sir, you can't do that alone.

- You said it yourself.

It's about being ready all the time.

We're ready.

- I can't put you in harm's way.

- I have a way that we can stay safe

and rescue the students.

Andrasta?

We need to find out everything we can

about this machine.

- On it.

Pretty brave.

- I'm the president.

Took an oath.

- I was just about to say I had a plan

to stay safe and rescue people.

I actually think he's got some sort of

idea stealing ability.

You know,

you gotta stop throwing yourself at me.

- How long does it take to find six kids?

- Okay,

do you know what you're doing?

Alright.

Okay. You sure you're up for this?

This isn't a test sorta thing.

- No problem.

Just unlock the door and get the word out.

We'll take care of the rest.

- Alright.

Hey,

they're gonna need you.

- Not my battle.

- Pretty easy to win the fights you pick.

- I'll get them to the auditorium.

Then they're on their own.

Okay,

good luck.

I believe in all of you.

It's okay, got it under control.

And up we go!

We're all good!

I'll just dance myself in.

A little section at a time.

Any of you have the ability to create a ladder?

- Okay, let's bring it in.

- I don't do huddles, sport.

- Everyone's counting on us.

Now I know today we screwed up,

but this is our time to show them

that they were wrong.

So let's get up there and kick some butt!

- Good pep talk.

Sorry, I was asleep.

No idea what's going on.

- Gotta get to my office.

Keep going at it. Come on.

Okay, use this as a lesson.

What have I learned?

I have learned I am

quite claustrophobic.

Power through, Hughes. Power through!

I'll have a nice pickle.

I'm a claustrophobic to most.

- Finally.

- They did not want to come quietly, sir.

Teenagers, so brave.

So rebellious. Ooh, stupid.

And who's this?

- Lunam. She's a werewolf.

- Interesting.

Don't think I ever heard of a werewolf ability before.

- I'm one of a kind.

- And what did you do to get yourself

locked up in detention?

- I didn't do anything.

They always lock me up on a full moon

for everyone's safety.

My ability is too much for me to control.

The curse only lasts a few minutes,

but it's intense.

- Well let's fix that, shall we?

Well, looks like I would've chosen you.

You know, if this whole thing wasn't a scam.

- Pretty brave.

What?

- Taking little kid's abilities.

- Young man, if I were to fight you,

I would destroy you.

You should be grateful I'm only taking your powers.

- This one has an attitude, sir.

- Not for long.

What do you think you're doing?

- Plan b.

- What are you waiting for? Punch in the code!

- It's not working!

- You probably typed in in wrong.

Tell her again.

- The code is four two three.

- Food! Anybody got food?

Got a sandwich.

- Food? Oh, oh, what is this?

Thank you. Thank you.

Wait. Does this have mustard on it?

Doesn't matter, doesn't matter.

Thank you!

- Liv, get the kids out of here now.

What? No way!

You do it! I'm way better at fighting than you are!

- Skinny kid's first, huh?

Uh oh. Oh!

- You guys need medical benefits.

- Here, use that.

- It's not working.

I punched it in like three million times!

- Sorry guys, I don't trust anyone with the real code.

Not even Ms. Potter.

- Help us.

- It's a shame.

Would've really loved to have kept that

puppet thing of yours.

Well, well, well.

Isn't this interesting?

- Get up.

Take the others and leave.

- Are you crazy?

We're not leaving you here to fight him.

- Don't worry about me.

- Sacrificing yourself for your little friends.

I didn't think you had it in you.

- I'm not sacrificing myself,

I'm gonna punch you in the face

until you don't have a face.

- Aww, now come on.

Doesn't sound like the Klon that sent me all those letters.

- What's he talking about?

- Eh, go on and tell them Klon.

Tell them how you used to send me all kinds of--

That's gonna cost you!

Guys run!

- I'm not leaving!

- You're gonna be so mad at me for this.

- Kids these days, huh?

Stay quiet.

- You think the others are alright?

- Yeah.

Hopefully Mr. Hughes made it to his office.

Alright.

Students might not respect me,

but at least the pay sucks.

- You said we hired the best.

How could you let a bunch of kids take control.

Okay, Pike. Walk me through what happened.

- I don't know, the kid was controlling you,

trying to save the day.

- Did it work?

- Are we still employed?

- This is why nobody goes to your poker nights.

- Hey!

Kaeluss, uh, was just getting me to look up in the vents.

Make sure none of those kids are trying to escape.

Some of them were pretty wily

so he wanna,

do I have to stop?

You know, like I should just stop.

You're not buying this.

- You're the principal right?

- Yes, Principal Hughes.

You look like an Andy

Garf-lincoln-blur,

if I get close, you gotta say it.

If I rhyme, same thing.

- I heard this cat runs the school

and his ability is only a level one.

- That's true.

That's, uh, I always say,

it's not about the size of the ability,

it's how you use it. Huh?

Ah, this guy gets it.

- No, I remember now.

This dude locks stuff.

Pathetic, right?

You've messed up my tie?

I also unlock things!

So, you know, both.

Anyway, thank you for laughing with me, not at me.

That's something I appreciate

and I'll remember you for.

- Woah, woah, woah.

Nice try, Goldilocks.

- Ah, see what you did there.

'Cause I lock things.

Not sure where the gold part comes from but

guessing brains aren't your strong suits since

you're just a couple of lowly guards.

Not so useless after all, is it?

- Let us out of this!

- Sit it off. Don't worry, it doesn't last forever.

- How long?

- Well, let's put it this way.

Your feet are gonna wear off before your mouths do.

What?

- Oh, I can't hear you.

Oh yeah, I'm awesome? Thank you!

Bye!

- Don't you ever do that to me again!

- You didn't give me much choice.

- You should've let me fight him.

- He would've killed you.

- So what? You should've let him.

- You don't mean that.

- You know what? Save it, Pres!

I'm not a!

- What was all that letter stuff?

- What?

I don't know, okay?

He was probably trying to confuse us.

- Yeah that's, uh, that's what I thought too.

- I hate this stupid place!

- Hey, be angry if you want but keep it down.

Some of us are trying to hide.

- Attention students.

After much thought and deliberation,

I have decided as your new principal

to change today's lesson plan.

I'll now be teaching you that

every action is a reaction.

You see, you have decided to take action.

Now you'll have to deal with my reaction.

Good luck to you all.

- What do you think he means?

- Who cares?

- Okay, what about that one?

Another locked door.

- Wait, why don't you just do your thing?

You know, bulk up and rip the door off?

- That's not how it works.

I need calories to turn into energy

and that fight took everything I had.

So if you got a turkey here or something

I might be able to help.

So how does yours work anyway?

You like make monsters?

- I don't make them, I summon them.

- That's pretty awesome like.

And have to do what you say?

- Yes, if I keep them small enough.

The bigger they are, the less they listen.

- Sort of like teenagers then.

- Yeah, sort of.

You should really keep food on you.

You're kinda cool when you're the bigger version.

- Isn't this cool?

- You're right, I'm sorry.

- It's alright, I'm used to it.

This is like my fourth school in three years.

Everywhere I go, I gotta pretend like I'm two people.

A jock who wins football games

and the invisible kid.

- Which one's harder?

- Well the nerdy looser, popular sporty guy,

they all got problems.

I mean, I think everyone thinks either side's got it better.

- Yeah, sometimes I feel bad when I complain.

I mean I look at people like

nerds or whatever

and I think okay, at least it's not that bad.

- I think teenage is like Latin

for crappy years or something.

Too bad, man.

I'm really hoping this school is gonna be different.

Ms. Potter, give them their abilities.

Yes sir.

- Oh yeah, I've been dreaming about this.

Give me that earthquake ability.

Gonna rip this school in half.

- Uh, Ms. Potter,

nothing over a level four.

Of course, sir.

- Woah woah woah. What's the deal?

You promised us abilities.

- You said we'd be gods.

- And I'm delivering.

I'd be a complete idiot to give all these abilities

to criminal elements such as yourselves.

So be happy with your level four.

Go find those kids.

- Hey look! Principal Hughes.

- Hey, um,

I didn't get a chance to say thank you back there

when you pushed me out of the way.

- Don't worry about it.

I'm taking a saving a person a day challenge for charity,

so you kinda helped me out.

- Come on, let's go check on another--

- Not good.

- Now you see me,

now you don't.

- Liv? I can't see!

He's blinded me!

- It almost feel bad.

It's too easy.

Oh, it's the witch!

- You say it like it's a bad thing.

- Liv!

- I can, I can see!

I can see!

- Don't just leave me here, Alice!

Alice, I can't get out of this.

Wait!

You see anyone?

- No.

I don't think the others are coming.

- What are we supposed to do?

- Go back there and we finish what we started.

- Hey, what is your deal?

First you want nothing to do with this,

now all you wanna do is go fight?

Make up your mind.

- You are the one who asked me to fight in the first place.

I was completely happy to leave you guys too.

- I wish you did!

- If I did, you'd be dead!

Alright, just calm down.

This isn't helping us.

- I don't need this.

- Wait.

We need a plan.

We can't just go storming in there.

- Stay out of my way. That's the plan.

- Don't make me take over.

- Stay out of my head.

- You're gonna get people killed.

So stop thinking about whatever

petty feud you have with this guy and work with us.

What?

You wrote him some letters

and he wouldn't let you be president of his fan club?

Andrasta that's enough?

- Or did you think if you sent in those letters

he'd let you be his new sidekick?

Let you carry his cape around.

- You don't know me.

- We all know you.

You're the big loner tough guy

that beats kids up for running into him accidentally.

The one who only cares about himself.

So yeah, we know you. We just hate you.

- Andrasta come on!

That was a low blow.

- What? You're on his side?

- I'm on everyone's side!

And in case you haven't noticed,

there's a madman that's gonna kill everyone we know!

- Well why is he giving me such a problem?

- He saved your life back there!

- Yeah and if he joined in the fight earlier,

my life wouldn't of needed saving.

We could've saved everyone. He's selfish.

- Like it or not we need him.

He's strong and he can fight.

- I'm not apologizing to him.

- That's fine, just talk to him.

- It won't help, he hates me.

- You alright?

Looks like Pike took your breath away.

- Look, I don't know why he's so upset.

We all got our own battles.

There's a lot of people counting on us

to put this aside and work together.

You understand?

- This one gave me a headache.

Bring the roof down on them,

we don't need to bring them all back.

- It'll be my pleasure.

- Fine.

I'll talk to him.

- Thank you.

- Look,

we have no idea what your deal is with Kaeluss.

But the fact is

we need you.

So if you can help us save everyone,

we'll help you duke it out with Kaeluss.

Fair?

- Good enough.

- Okay, great.

We need to regroup, find the others.

Let's go.

- Who knows?

You might even like trying to help people.

- Yeah, think I'll try it.

- Oh for once in your life please be there.

Come on, come on.

Hughes.

I told you to call me the instant

that Kaeluss chose his successor.

I have the media--

- Quiet!

- Excuse me?

- Listen,

I know how this is gonna sound,

but Kaeluss has taken over the school.

Alright? He's not what he said he was gonna be.

He's taken all the kids' abilities.

You need to send for help right away.

- Is this some kind of a joke?

I tell you Hughes,

I will never understand your sense of humor.

- Shut it!

Alright? This is not a joke.

So you need off your wrinkly arse

and send whatever military you can to help us

because we're in real trouble here.

Do you understand me?

- Alright. I'll make a call.

- Thank you.

Please tell them to be quick.

I don't wanna have--

He's here!

- It's alright. I made a rule.

Help is on the way.

- You hear that? It's over.

Nice try but once I lock something,

it stays locked until I say so.

- Or unless I say so.

- What is this?

What's going on?

- I thought you said you could handle this.

- And I thought you said there wouldn't be any problems.

I guess we're both liars.

- You're a part of this?

- Kaeluss is the future, Mr. Hughes.

I'm just securing my position.

- But the kids.

- Let you in on a little secret.

I hate kids.

- Little pig?

Little pig?

Let me in.

- I really want to,

but I'm not gonna say chinny chin chin.

- I'll summon a monster for the door.

- No, no. Just rest.

Maybe the others will find a way to get here

before this psycho lady can get in.

- I hope, and soon.

- Me too.

I guess we're even on the life saving stuff now.

- Yeah, I guess we are.

- Thanks for that, by the way.

It turns out I'm kinda like addicted to seeing.

Oh and that monster you summoned?

Phenomenal bite on that guy.

- Um hmm. She's a nasty one.

And she's not letting go anytime soon.

Hey, in case I don't get a chance,

I wanted to say sorry for being mean to you this morning.

You know, when you asked me out or whatever.

- That's alright, I'm used to it.

- No, it was rude of me.

- Does this mean you'll go on a date with me now?

I'm like five years older than you.

- So what?

When you're 30, I'll be 25.

- Maybe when I'm 60 and you're 55.

- Oh, I'll trade you in long before that.

- I'll tell you what.

If we make it out of here,

I'll introduce you to some of my younger friends. Deal?

- Okay, but you gotta tell them up front.

I don't kiss on the first date.

I'm a classy dame.

Oww. Stop making me laugh.

- Sorry, it's kinda all I got going for me.

- No it's not.

- Shake.

Shake!

And I'll rip this door off!

- What is that?

Lady you're so lucky I don't have like a,

like a ham sandwich or something right now.

Alright.

What is it?

- Food!

- They could be anywhere.

How do we even know where to look?

- They're probably down that way.

- Had a bite to eat.

- Thanks.

- Hey just don't forget to tell your friends

how heroic I am.

- Principal Hughes probably unlocked the door by now.

Maybe we can find a back way to sneak everybody out.

- He's probably still in his office.

- Let's go.

Guess you'd never think you'd be hanging

in a principal office if you wanted to, huh?

Shut up.

Come on, are we not friends yet?

Come on, I'll be the sidekick.

I can even kick people in the sides.

Changing my name to Kickside.

- Woah! What happened?

- Where's Hughes?

- It's over, kids.

- Mr. Kent, I'm so glad you're here.

Look, something terrible has happened at the school.

Hey man. What do you got there?

- Mind your business.

- Sir, if you can send in the cavalry,

we can save the others.

We just need some backup.

- You kids surprise me.

- Thank you, sir.

- It wasn't a complement.

- When I was in charge,

my students knew the meaning of greatness.

They understood that they had to do what they were told.

- What did you do?

- What you should all have been doing.

I follow the chain of command.

You kids are too stupid to know when you have it good.

You're like that moron Hughes.

- Hey! Principal Hughes isn't a moron.

- He's 10 times the principal you are.

- You think five kids can make a difference?

- Hey man, you alright?

You are the bottom of the barrel.

- I'm done.

- Hey, uh, guys?

I think tough loner guy is having a moment here.

- What?

For crying out loud.

- When we get out of this,

I'm gonna personally make sure you pay.

- You do that son.

I'll be waiting right here.

- Hey! Come on!

I thought we had a deal!

- Deal's off.

- We don't have time for this drama!

- What's changed?

- He was reading some file he stole.

Sorry bro. Not judging.

Just trying to speed things up.

- Look if you wanna stay and get killed,

that's up to you.

But count me out.

- What was in the file.

- None of your business.

- Fine, we'll find out my way.

- Good morning students.

Hope everybody's having a good day.

I see I've interrupted science class.

I like to introduce you to a new student who's joining us.

This is Andrasta.

Andrasta would you like to tell everybody

a little bit about yourself?

Maybe where you're from?

Okay.

Well she's, uh, just ready to learn.

There's a seat right up there for you.

Our abilities are not for sale!

Our abilities are not for sale!

We will not be controlled!

I mean, metaphorically.

- Tuck in that shirt, Mr. Francis.

Morning girls.

Another one for me then.

Alright.

Our abilities are not for sale!

Our abilities are not for sale!

Andrasta, a minute please.

Our abilities are not for sale!

- What was in the file?

- I don't know.

I didn't see anything.

- Hey, is that Whitey?

Are you alright?

- How did you escape?

- Well I give credit where credit is due.

- It's Kaeluss.

He's using telepathy.

- You managed to defeat my best people.

Here's a thought. Join me.

Be part of my team.

You're obviously better than the people I chose.

- Oh no, no. This is freaking me out.

Like those commercials with the babies' heads

on the grown up bodies.

- No.

Well, given our current situation,

I can't say I blame you.

So let's go with another plan.

Meet me in the auditorium in five minutes

or I'll destroy the entire school

and everyone in it,

starting with this guy.

Oh, you can't see me.

I'm holding up Principal Hughes.

Five minutes.

- What do we do?

- We stick to the plan.

- I think if we work together we can stop this guy.

I mean he's powerful, but he's one guy.

- What do you think we should do?

- Whatever you want.

- Are you seriously leaving?

- I am not the guy that you need me to be!

Okay?

Trust me on this, I am not the hero!

It's not who I am!

Come with me.

I really hoped I was wrong about him.

- Can't do it with just four of us.

- I can barely stand, let alone summon anything.

- Well that's it.

We just give up?

- It's the only way to make sure no one else gets hurt.

We all wanted to be heroes.

We still can.

It's just gonna cost us a little more than we thought.

- Are they always this late?

I said five minutes, right?

- You coward.

- Sticks and stones, Principal Hughes.

- Why would you do this?

- Well I'm sure in my autobiography

it'll say something about, you know, basic instinct.

Take some time, you know,

get poetic about self preservation.

But the truth is probably more likely arrogance.

What can I say? I like to be on top.

- You had everything.

- Yeah, I did.

And that's the thing about having everything,

you always want more.

Okay, I didn't wanna have to do this,

but your classmates aren't giving me much of a choice.

So let's get this over with.

Stop.

- Oh, you got a lot of guts showing up here.

Not a lot of brains, mind you, but a lot of guts.

- Let them go.

- What? No!

Never said anything about that.

- Let them go and we'll give you our abilities.

No more fighting, those are our terms.

Those are the terms.

You know, if I didn't hate you kids so much,

I'd probably like you.

But wait, two, three, four, where's Klon?

- He left.

- Of course he did.

Wouldn't be a surprise.

Alright.

You give me your abilities, I'll let them go.

- Don't do it!

- Shut up!

We're making deals over here!

Stop it!

- Swear you'll let them go.

- Yeah, I promise! I don't have all day!

We're doing this or what?

- Alright.

- We'll do it.

- Oh no.

- Super!

Come on down.

Put your hand in the machine, let's make this official.

- Alright, we did it.

Now let everyone go.

- That was your only chance!

And you blew it!

I mean when you guys first came in,

I was a little bit nervous, you know.

I thought if they really band together,

I should be a little bit worried.

But you just blew it!

- We had a deal.

We had a deal?

Never underestimate the stupidity of teenagers

right, Principal Hughes?

You were the one with the sandwich, right?

The one that hit me?

- Yeah?

- Are you alright?

- I think so.

- Who else hit me?

- I did.

- There he is.

- Let them go.

- Then what? What do I get?

Are you gonna surrender?

- No, but I promise to let you walk outta here in one piece.

- That's no way to talk to family.

- What?

You didn't tell them?

- Shut up.

- You see,

the reason Klon here is so wishy washy on helping you

is because he is me.

- I said shut up.

- Let me guess, you found the files?

You found the truth?

Probably not the truth that Hughes fed you though.

- You're worthless.

I'm sorry, I was just trying to protect you.

- You used to send me all kinds of letters

'cause Hughes gave him some story

that I was his long lost dad or something.

And it would say "I just want someone I can talk to,

"someone who understands me."

I used to laugh when I got those letters.

You want the truth, kid?

I'm not your daddy.

You're just some half cocked experiment

that Mr. Kent came up with,

trying to make a clone out of me.

In case I got sick or hurt.

But Hughes here is the one that

sprung you out of the test tube.

How'd that feel?

I wanna know, I wanna know.

How did that feel

to find out that you were only made from my spare parts?

- Get him Klon!

- Gotta watch out for those!

You're really this stubborn?

- Get him!

- Enough!

Had enough yet?

- Never.

- Come on! Is this what you wanted?

A little family bonding?

Stop it!

- There you go!

Now you're just a regular kid!

You don't have to worry about growing up

and turning out like me!

- I would never be like you.

- You're right.

Something funny?

- It's nighttime.

- I took your abilities.

- Werewolf isn't an ability,

it's a curse.

I know about curses.

- And I fought things twice your size.

- That's enough.

That's enough!

- Ow.

- You're better than him.

I would've let her finish him off.

- It's a cute trick,

real cute.

Shouldn't be surprised.

Technically I thought of it.

But it's time for this to end.

What is this?

I've already taken all your abilities.

- You didn't take his.

- What? - Do it!

- No! No!

- Someone, food!

Please say you still feel like fighting.

- Hey,

thanks for coming back.

- Look,

I don't know what you saw when you were

poking around in my head,

but I'm not like--

- Hey Klon, maybe we should--

Good for them.

- Where's Deja?

- Kaeluss? What's going on?

You owe me!

You better not have forgotten me.

- Oh I didn't forget about you.

- Oh, so you saved the day after all, huh kid?

- We did.

- Too bad you're all the way over there.

- It's too bad.

- I wouldn't say I have a type per say,

but if you have any friends who are like skinny kids,

- Hey Metabolism!

- I don't think you're gonna need my help.

Hey.

So what's your deal? You're a tough loner today?

- Or you gonna be the guy who hangs out with us losers?

- Can't I be both?

- Well come on, we're gonna go see a controversial film.

One Andrasta can make out and she can protest the theater.

Win win!

What? I'm trying to help.

- Yeah, come with.

- Can't. I have detention.

- Afternoon Klon.

- Afternoon Principal Hughes.

- I was thinking we would use this time to write an essay.

Maybe you could tell me who you are

or what makes you special.

Help you out here with a little mood board.

Please forgive the crude artwork.

This is you.

What makes a hero? Is it art?

- Psst. - Brains?

Abilities?

This, of course, is just a suggestion.

I'm also happy to help you out with any of your studies.

You know, my math is solid.

I'm not great at history but if you, and you're gone.

Okay, well! Guess I get to go see that movie after all!

Are you sure I'll be safe?

- Oh yeah, doc. Nothing to worry about.

We got this high tech nap thing.

It makes it so he can't use his abilities.

He's as weak as a kitten.

We just basically need you to go in

and do an once-over on him.

And then we can lock him up.

Apparently he got attacked by a werewolf.

A werewolf!

You know what really sucks?

I got this guy's autograph a few years back at a convention.

I waited in line for like four hours!

Cost me a month's salary too.

Now he's gonna rot in some cell,

thing's gonna be worthless!

You think it'll worth anything?

You know, the autograph I mean.

- Oh, I think it will.
