LOUISE: Hi, everyone.
Uh, thank you for coming.

I mean, you had to.
(chuckles) It's school.

So, uh, here's my project.

This is a plane. But don't think
of it as a plane.

Think of it as a superpower.

'Cause in 1920,
if you were brave enough

to fly one of these things,

to even go up in one,
you were kind of a superhero.

WAYNE: That's true for
pretty much all new technology.

- It was the same with cars.
- Oh, no talking.

Thank you, Wayne.
(sighs)

Okay, now you've thrown
the timing off.

Resetting. Tina? Gene?

TINA:
Whoops. Dropped the cloud.

LOUISE: (chuckles nervously)
Um...

how was everyone's Mother's Day?

Did you all spend it
working on your presentations

like I did?
Get your moms to help?

Some present, right?

The only present they got
was a present-ation.

- (Rudy chuckles)
- Thanks, Rudy.

You're welcome. Oh, sorry.
You said no talking.

And your hero report
should be multimedia.

That means multi of media.

You'll have a week
to work on it. Rudy.

Does it have to be
someone from history?

'Cause one time I saw a guy spin
a basketball on his finger.

- Uh...
- From history. You're all
about to go to the library.

Your hero will be someone
in the biography section.

If your hero is not
in the biography section,

then they're not your hero.

Let's line up.

LOUISE:
So, the subject of my report

gets to go on her first flight

as a passenger
when she's 23 years old.

And she decides
right then and there

she wants to be a pilot.

WAYNE:
Oh. Avoid.

More of a manufactured publicity
stunt than a hero.

Wayne, I have a lot of feedback
for you right now.

My personal space-- invaded.

Your breathing-- it's too much.

And your words are bad ones.

Just trying to be helpful.

Wright Brothers--
they invented airplanes.

Lindbergh is a legitimate pilot.

She's a legitimate pilot.
She's sitting in an airplane

- right here and...
- Yeah. Exactly.

She's sitting in an airplane.

For a picture. Publicity stunt.

And she's on the cover
of a book that's about her.

- She's...
- Jacques Cousteau. Kinda cool.

He's, like,
the original Aquaman.

I considered him.
Edmund Hillary--

first man to reach
the top of Mount Everest.

I'd let that happen. Hero-wise.

Uh, this is all in
the explorer-pilot-pioneer area,

if that's what
you're interested in.

(sighs) I'm getting
less and less interested.

Still feel pretty good
about my choice.

Neil Armstrong. First man
on the moon, of course,

but there's so much more there.

Armstrong's grade bait, too,
you know?

Automatic A-minus.

Do a slideshow,
put that Ken Burns effect on,

and that is an "A" all day.

I'm gonna get reading.
Where are you sitting?

Oh, I set up over there.

Okay, good to know.
I'm going this way.

Really?
Those are the worst tables here.

- I don't know
if they're even level.
- Okay, thank you, Wayne!

What?

- OTHERS: Nothing.
- Nothing. I'm just not sure

I've ever seen you with
your chin in a book like that.

- Nose.
- Yeah, who knows?

- What?
- What?

Amelia Earhart, huh?

It's for school.
I guess she's my hero?

You don't sound so sure.

That phrase is usually said
with more conviction.

Like, "Mrs. Doubtfire
is my hero!"

I didn't know who to choose.

I think she's a great choice.

She did...
all kinds of cool stuff.

And the mystery of what happened
on her final flight.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- I haven't gotten

to the end yet, so no spoilers.

- Yup. Mm-hmm.
- Yup.
- Oh.

What? What were you just saying?

- Huh? Wha?
- I can't remember.
- Nothing.

Uh, here's a spoiler--

- Mother's Day is coming up.
- Aah!
- We...

we-we know. Of course.

We know that like... crazy.
(chuckles nervously)

Anyway, headline--
don't buy me anything.

Here's what I want:
in-home family spa.

That's it. Nothing fancy.

Just one of you rubbing my back

while one of you
paints my toenails.

And, also, no peeing on
the toilet seat on Mother's Day.

Just for one day,
I want to not sit on pee.

I-- We can do that.
I-I think we can do that.

- Gene.
- Dad.

LOUISE: Amelia Earhart gets
her pilot's license in 1923.

In 1932, already famous

but determined
to prove herself as a pioneer,

she flies solo
across the Atlantic--

the first woman and only the
second person ever to do this.

Her most ambitious goal,
however--

to be the first woman
to fly around the world--

this goal,
she would never achieve.

Her voice on the radio during
the final part of that journey

would be the last
anyone heard from her, ever.

Yeah. I know.

Imagine my surprise
when I found that out.

What?!

No, Louise,

you'll fall too far behind.

Stick with the one you picked.

Um, I'm just--
I'm not sure my hero

is as heroic
as I'd like her to be.

Been there. But, still, no.

Great, great, great, great.

What were you guys
talking about?

Are you having hero trouble?

Ha-ha-ha-ha. No.

Actually, we're in talks
for a... sequel to my report.

And franchise rights, you know?

Merch. So, uh, yeah,

I'm doing fine.
(chuckles)

BOB:
Hey.

- Cool plane.
- Yup.
- Where's a cool plane?

Oh, yeah, look at that.

- Pretty red.
- Yes, it's very red.

I want to see something
that's red.

We talking red stuff?

Oh, my God, people, please.

Okay. Sheesh.

I'm gonna go get something red
that's nice to me.

(quietly): Listen,
I have an idea for Mother's Day.

Wait, why are you crouching?

- I like it.
- Yeah.

It's just now I have
to crouch lower.

It's fine. Anyway,
she said she wants a massage,

but we're so bad at that.

- Yeah.
- That's true.
- Yeah.

A professional massage person
is too expensive,

but I found out
if you hire a massage student,

it's much cheaper. Like, much.

And they can come here.
So, should we surprise your mom

with a real massage from someone
who's almost a professional?

- That sounds nice.
- Yeah.
- Good job, Dad.

- And that deep crouch, too.
- I know.

Okay, then. That's the plan.

Uh, hey, Lin. Uh, nice wine.

- Thank... you.
- So, are you sure

you don't want any help
with your homework, Louise?

No, I'm fine.

It doesn't matter.
She was a cool lady

and then she disappeared,

and I printed out
some pictures at school

and I'm gonna put 'em
on something

and it'll be a solid C-plus

and I'm great with that.

I love it.
(quietly): Okay, she's gone.

- What'd you say?
- Nothing.

The answer to that is five.

- Five.
- Correct.

- He didn't raise his hand.
- LABONZ: Geography.

- What's this?
- South Ameri...
- South America.

- Pretty sure.
- Correct.

- But I-I said it first!
- I said it louder.

You can't just say things louder.

I can. I'm doing it right now.

- Well,
I'll talk louder than you.
- Talking!

Talking! Loud, loud, loud!

Stop making your mouth bigger!

I will rip off your arms and
I will scream into your face!

- Hero reports. Who's ready?
- Me!

- I'm ready!
- Louise, please.
Ms. Labonz, may I present

astronaut Neil Armstrong!

(screaming)

(panting)

I got to get
a better grade than Wayne

on this hero thing.

And maybe remove his mouth?

We'll start with the
better grade.

Okay, if we make a movie,
like, a serious drama,

we could use models
for the plane shots.

Gene, you have model planes?

Have you ever once heard me say

"I'm off to work
on my model planes now"?

That's fine.
We'll... figure it out.

Maybe we'll do it in CG.
Tina, can you do CG?

- I don't think I can...
- And, Gene,
can you be on orchestra duty?

- Hiring one? Recording them?
- Um...

All right. It might be hard

to make a feature film
in four days.

But what am I gonna do?
It has to be multimedia.

- Is this multimedia?
- Uh, no.

Sure, it is.
It's like a little finger puppet

that can also fix your mistakes.

- Ooh, puppets.
- Yes!

Not finger puppets.

Back in my pocket, you.

Your time will come.

You're, like, the puppet kid,
right, Benj?

- I guess.
- So, in your expert opinion,

can I put on
a grade A-caliber puppet show

about Amelia Earhart
in four days?

Ish? Depending on...
how you define "day."

Puppets, like... puppets?

- Yeah.
- These took me two weeks
to make. Each.

Oh. What about marionettes?

- I have marionette experience.
- Do you?

And kind of shocking
natural ability?

- With marionettes.
- Three weeks.

Benj, you're not giving me
much here.

Louise, in fifth grade,
they assign a lot more homework.

I'm doing this
for the fifth grade play,

and then my mom
drives me an hour

to do after-school wheelchair
basketball twice a week,

even though
I do not care for it.

So maybe don't make it
like the puppet kid

has to help you just 'cause
you decided this morning

you wanted to do puppets.

Okay, okay! Geez.

Sorry. It's just...

I heard you were the best.

- Don't touch.
- Yup. Yup.

- This room smells like paste.
- (chuckles)

It's hot glue.

So, you were close.
(chuckling)

- Oh, hi, Ben.
- Hi!

It's actually "Benj."
(chuckles softly)

An eighth grade girl
knows my name.

Almost knows my name.

Yeah, well, welcome to the club.

It comes with no perks whatsoever.

What else can be multimedia?

- Interpretive dance?
- Ooh!

- No.
- Oh.

Oh! Slam poetry?

An upright bass
playing in the background?

That might at least snag you
a "B."

- For "bass."
- (sighs) It's got to be an "A."

Who is this kid?

- (phone ringing)
- Oh! Uh, I'll get it.

Yeah, it's your cell phone.
This guy, huh?

-"I'll get it."
- Hi.

Yes, I can totally talk to you
about that.

Uh, let me just go
into the other room to, uh,

check my calendar
that I have there.

It-It's the exterminator.
For the restaurant.

- They came last week.
- What'd I say? Exterminator?

I meant the sink... examiner.

- Do you mean "plumber"?
- Yup! Bye!

I mean, I'll-I'll be right back.

I think
plumbers make him nervous.

- So cute.
- Mom, think.

- Multimedia.
- Uh, glitter?

- No.
- (sadly): Why no glitter?

Shadow puppets.

Is that a thing? Shadow puppets?

- TINA/LINDA/BOB: Yeah.
- I think. Like when Dad

used to make his hands
look kinda like a bird

and we'd all have to be polite

and say it was so much
like a bird.

It does look like a bird.

And I do dog, rabbit...

No. Uh, I don't know.
I got to talk to Benj.

The puppet kid? I thought
he was too busy to help you.

Uh, actually, Tina,
we have to talk to Benj.

Can you meet me at recess?

And maybe clean the toothpaste
off your cheek.

- What? (grunts)
- Aw. I liked it.

Hey, Benj. How's it going?

Oh! (chuckles): Hey, Tina.

Didn't see you there.

Benj, this is my sister Tina.

She's in eighth grade.

Oh. I'm aware.
(chuckles softly)

Yeah,
she's an eighth grade girl.

Anyway, Tina's helping me
with my report.

Working closely with me, actually.

Hey, question for you
about that.

Shadow puppets--
got any experience?

Any advice?

I've seen... some videos.

It's not the kind of
puppeteering that I usually do,

but I could, like, consult, maybe?

Great. What do I need?
I think I might have mentioned

there's some time pressure.

Uh, the report's on Monday.

Wait, really? It's Thursday.

It's okay. We've got this.

We're a team. Right, Tina?

- Right. What am I doing?
- Shh, shh.

So, what would I need?

Scissors, paper,
sticks, a light...

- Tina, you writing this down?
- Oh, um...

Mm-hmm.

So, like, here?

A little further back.
Is Tina coming?

She's coming. For sure.

That's not her. Or is it?

What are you doing here?
It's lunch.

I'm prepping for my report.

You know Benj, right?

Yeah, hi, Benj. We're old pals.

Oh. Sounds like some history.

I almost flunked fourth grade.

- You did?
- You were fine.

If only puppets could take
vocabulary quizzes, right?

I'm working on one that can.

Ms. Labonz,
I can hang a sheet here

and project a strong light
onto it from over there, right?

Uh, sure.

(sucks teeth)
Seems complicated.

Mine's a documentary.

Plays off the laptop.
Lot of personal narrative stuff.

Shots of Armstrong,
dissolve to me growing up.

- You know.
- Thanks, Wayne!

So glad you could stop by!

I've got a secret weapon now!

A shadow weapon!

Hey, you must have done
this report.

- Who was your hero?
- Jim Henson.

So what'd you get? For a grade?

- A-plus-plus?
- A "C."

- Oh.
- Sorry.

- But you're my... shadow weapon?
- I mean,

or your unpaid,
part-time shadow consultant?

Who's more into hand puppets?

- Well, crap.
- LABONZ: Ugh.

- This fish did not keep.
- (sniffing)

- Oh, no, it didn't.
- Yeah. I can smell that...

BOB: Louise, remember
when I said you could

work on your project down here?

Can I change my answer?

No. I need the counter space.

It's just... Look at Teddy.
Look at Mort.

I don't mind.
It's a fun challenge to not...

stain my pants too much.

I heard Amelia Earhart
was actually captured

by the Japanese.
Was that in the book?

Oh, yeah.
There's tons of theories

about what happened to her.

And I go even farther than that.

What if she escaped
from the POW camp

and then she became a super spy

and they gave her a super plane

and the person
who sent her on missions

was President Eleanor Roosevelt?

- That's fun.
- I know.

But just the stuff we do know
about is pretty great.

Did I tell you my therapist has
a signed picture in her office?

Her mother knew
Amelia Earhart's sister

up in Medford, Massachusetts.

Okay, you don't have to brag.

We can't all have therapists
whose mothers

are from Medford, Massachusetts, okay?

- Louise, be nice.
- Sorry, it's just, I got...

9,000 puppets to cut here.

Who knows what a Nazi submarine
looks like in silhouette?

(quietly):
Bob, Bob, Bob.

- Teddy, what?
- I have a gift basket
in my truck.

Soaps, lotions, bath bubbles.

It's for my mom,
but I could give it to you

to give to Linda
for Mother's Day.

I know that you're not great
at thoughtful gestures.

We have, we have a whole thing.
It's okay. Thank you.

(whispering): Some guy's
gonna come touch our mom.

(whispering): We asked for
a lady, but they only had a guy.

But he's "almost certified."

So he's, like,
a massage enthusiast.

(shushing)
She's coming.

God, Mort, stop talking
about funeral home stuff.

Yeah, we're not all comfortable
with death like you.

- What?
- Oh, Mort.

- What is it?
- It's a pedal board.

- So instead of the keyboard
sounding like this...
- (note drones)

- ...it sounds like this.
- (blipping echoes)

Love it. It's in.
Where'd you get it?

Peter Pescadero.
His brother plays guitar,

but his brother is
away at college.

Peter said I could use it
if I teach him how to twerk.

Also Peter said he can
come play his bass recorder

along with me if I only play
in the key of F,

which is okay 'cause "key" is
just an attitude, I think.

- What's this?
- Soviet plane-fighting robot.

Did Amelia Earhart, um,

- do fights with Soviet robots?
- She might have.

- Ooh, I've got
a good effect for that.
- (effect zapping)

Louise, do you have
maybe too much

in the super spy section?

I think I have just the
right amount, thanks for asking.

Cut a little faster, maybe?

Well, do you say
why she's your hero?

I mean, even if she didn't
become a secret super spy?

Yeah, yeah, that's in there.

It's called the "My Hero"
project, so of course I...

get into... all that.

- Tina. Duh.
- Sorry.

Nothing! I've got nothing!

I wrote a whole stupid story
about super spies and robots.

I'm gonna get an "F"
and smug Wayne will be

smug and kind of right.

- Aah!
- Okay. It's okay.

We can figure this out.

It's just...

I hate that she failed.
I hate it.

And the more
I read that chapter,

the more it was like--
it was her fault.

It was so badly planned.

They didn't bring
the right kind of radio.

And Wayne's gonna be sitting
there with his dumb face

and his successful
moon-landing man report.

Hey. Forget about Wayne.

Wayne can go... kiss a kickball.

Maybe you can cut the spy stuff?

Maybe just write an ending
where nothing happened,

except what's most likely,
which is that she went down

in the Pacific Ocean
and they never found

her body or her plane.

Yeah, that sounds
like a crowd pleaser.

Well, better than that,
but let's just try

and see
what that would look like.

It would just be
rewriting this much, right?

- And then the next page.
- Oh.

And the one after that.

Oh, okay, but still,
we-we can do this.

Uh, let me get you
fresh paper and a pencil.

- Do kids still use pencils?
- Yeah.

BOB: All right,
your mom's still asleep,

or she's pretending to be
asleep, I can't tell.

How-how are you, um... doing?

With my report? Horrible.

I know it's Mother's Day, so...

- I'll just stop.
- You can keep working on it
after breakfast.

LOUISE: Well, I'm not gonna
ruin Mother's Day and fail,

- so I might as well
just do the failing part.
- (doorbell rings)

Oh, no! You weren't supposed
to ring the doorbell.

Hello. I'm Pat.

- Shh!
- Oh. Sorry.

Wait, what's going on?

Pat. You're a surprise.

I'm a surprise like
what am I doing at your door?

No, I-I mean,
I was thinking I'd try to...

sneak you in and surprise
my wife with you.

Oh, fun.

(whispers):
I mean, fun.

(both grunting)

Ah, don't make
so much noise, Gene.

Your-your mother's sleeping. Shh.

Oh, smart.

But now you have
to pretend you have a son

named Gene
for the rest of your life.

What? No, I really have
a son named Gene.

Uh-oh. Losing my grip.

- Uh, surprise.
- Happy Mother's Day.

- Happy Mother's Day.
- Happy Mother's Day.

Thank you?

Hi. Come on over
and we'll get you comfortable.

I'm totally comfortable.
Too comfortable maybe.

- Not really.
- I'll step out
and you can remove your robe

and lie down on your stomach,
with your face here.

Hmm.

- Hi.
- ALL: Hi.

This is everyone's
first massage, I'm gathering?

- Why do you say that?
- 'Cause we look like

we think you're gonna
murder our mom?

We always look like that.
Don't be offended.

(Linda humming)

- Oh.
- What?!

Your back, it's... so tight.

Were you in an accident?

- No.
- Really?

Did you just wake up
from a coma?

No. Is it possible
it's just from my life?

- Wow. Bob?
- Yeah?

We're gonna need
more than an hour.

Uh, for the same money?

Oh. Oh, yes.

This will be a great
learning experience for me.

Most people don't have this.

What a strange,
unique challenge.

Can I get on your Wi-Fi?

I might need
to watch some videos.

LOUISE: Ugh, that's it.
I give up. I give up!

You win, Wayne,
you big-mouthed bastard!

- Aah!
- Okay. Tense.

Tense house. The knots are...
making more sense.

LOUISE: Stupid! Dumb!
Hate it! Hate it. (shouting)

Nothing.
No ship, no Howland Island.

No land of any kind.

They were exactly where
they weren't supposed to be,

over the open ocean,

with nothing but fumes
left in the gas tanks...

LOUISE:
I don't even want to do the...

(shouting indistinctly)

...and just disappear, too!

I'll go check on Louise
and see why she's yelling.

- And... banging.
- LINDA: Bob, bring her in here.

No, Lin.
This is your special treat.

We want you to relax.

I'm not gonna be able to relax

unless she's in here
and I can talk to her.

- It's not quite what I would...
- It's okay.

Mom, it's fine.

I didn't mean to make...
so much noise.

Just pretend I said, "Wee!"

- Okay?
- Aw, my baby, I can help you.

- I had a thought.
- You did?

Yeah. Oh! Oh! Oh-ooh!

I'm listening when you're done
making that sound.

LOUISE: When they realized
just how bad things were,

Amelia and her navigator
must have talked.

But what is there to say?

"Oops"? I imagine

that she made a graceful landing
on the water.

I imagine that they...

climbed out up onto
the nose of the plane.

I imagine the plane
was sinking, but not quickly.

The body of it
would fill with water,

and slowly become too heavy
for the empty gas tanks

in the wings to hold up
on the surface.

And I picture Amelia
really facing her fate.

No planes in the sky.

No ships on the horizon.

And she would have known.

Soon, she'd be treading water.

The great flier is now
a floater.

Fish food.

- (Wayne laughs)
- Wayne, zip it.

I was thinking
about Amelia Earhart's mother.

- Since it's Mother's Day.
- Yeah?

You know what
I bet she never said

- to her daughter?
- What?

- Act like a lady.
- Gross.

I know,
but back when she was a kid,

women weren't doing things
that men did,

like flying planes
or wearing pants.

And I bet she never said, "Ooh!

Girls can do anything
boys can do."

'Cause, you know, sometimes
when they say that, it...

It ends up sounding
like the opposite?

Yeah. You never said it to me.

It never came up. Oh!

- Oh-oof!
- Sorry. Too much pressure?

No, no, I like it. Ooh!

I'm gonna write
some of this down.

However she did it,
whatever she said--

Amelia Earhart's mom--
it worked.

She had a confident daughter.

- Exhale.
- Ooh! That's good.

- Thank you.
- (sighs) I feel awful for her.

Losing her daughter like that.

But, you know, her daughter
was doing what she loved to do.

And Amelia was so confident,
and she did all this stuff.

And then a lot of little girls

saw themselves
doing all sorts of stuff.

- Hoo! Hoo-ah!
- Sorry.

No, it's good. So, in a way...

Amelia's mom gave me
a huge gift.

That because of her daughter,
my daughter gets a glimpse

of this fantastic life--
(gurgling)

- You're drooling.
- Am I?

Yes. Very much.

That's a compliment...

to a massage therapist, I think.

Should I get a towel
or a mop or something?

No, no, come back.
I can't see you.

I won't drool anymore.

- Okay...
- Hey.

Heroes don't have to be perfect.

You know?

They just have
to make you think bigger

about yourself somehow.

(grunts) Sorry.

- Little more drool.
- Aah! Aah!

LOUISE: Amelia Earhart
didn't fly around the world.

And some people may
think that makes her a failure.

And those people
might say that loudly,

while standing next to you
with hot breath.

And sometimes,
yeah, people with louder,

deeper voices get heard more
and that's really annoying,

but that doesn't make me want to
make my voice lower and deeper.

That just makes me mad.
I mean, I can do it.

(deep voice):
"Hey, I'm Louise."

(normal voice):
See? Pretty good.

But that's not the point.

Look what Earhart did.

She saved her money

and she bought her bright red

Lockheed Vega.

That was her saying, "Hello.

This is what
my voice sounds like."

(effect warbling)

That thing had
a 450-horsepower engine.

That basically means
an engine as strong

and as loud
as 450 horses mushed together.

And it could fly.

If you wrote a book
and you invented this character,

this dashing lady pilot,

you might become
a famous author.

Well, she was that character.

She wrote herself.

Okay, so we know
what probably happened.

But who knows, right?

When you're that far out in
the world, there's more magic.

That's true. It's like that
in the North Pole...

and in the jungles.
Maybe after she made her peace,

just before she got
too tired to keep afloat,

maybe some of that magic
lifted that plane

right back up underneath her.

And maybe she got to fly it back

up into the air and maybe
she never had to land again.

Maybe she dropped
Fred Noonan off

in Navigator Heaven
and then kept going.

I like to think of her flying
around up there right now.

She makes me want
to write a story for myself

that's as big
and as fricking cool as hers.

So that's why Amelia Earhart
is my hero.

Wow.

- Yay!
- That was good.

And it's not a contest,
but I think

that's better
than a male astronaut.

Okay, who's up next?

- Is it Wayne?
- LABONZ: Yeah, it's Wayne.

WAYNE:
Uh...
