05:47Move! We gotta move! What are you going to put on your car? Get me out of here! It's open.
06:10Get over here.
06:11Yo, Bigfoot! Your shopping spree is over. Now watch a professional at work.
06:394,000 pounds? You better lay off the dessert. I don't have time for this.
06:53Catch!
06:59By the way, that goo you're sitting in is stronger than concrete.
07:03You can be strong.
07:21Back off, big man!
07:24Damn you! Go!
07:31You're strong, Shanice.
07:33But not strong enough.
07:36It's you!
07:45Mom? Dad?
07:47Get out of the way, Shanice.
07:49Now!
07:52What the heck is this?
07:53Mom! Dad!
07:58Parents! They're inside those things!
08:01What?
08:08Hurry!
08:10We're trying. These aren't easy to operate.
08:16Keep working. I'll handle them.
08:18If you do anything to hurt our daughter.
08:21Not to worry, Dolores.
08:23I'll just shake them up a bit.
08:38Dumpster.
08:39Why is it always a dumpster?
08:41When this guy says he's gonna hit the world, he means it.
08:48Whoa, dude. That's liquid nitrogen. Minus 321 Fahrenheit.
08:52Put down the tank, man. One touch of that in your frozen yogurt.
08:56Speak for yourself.
08:58Clear out, clearing!
09:09Static, where are you?
09:11I don't know. I can't see.
09:13Gotta burn this off.
09:18You escaped.
09:22Everybody okay?
09:23I guess. Except...
09:26My parents are gone!
09:27Again!
09:33Our house specialty?
09:35The abandoned burrito of solitude.
09:38One bite, and you'll need to be alone.
09:41No thanks.
09:44Man, she is seriously down.
09:47I'm using my best jokes.
09:48Maybe that's what's depressing her.
09:51Listen, Shanice.
09:52I know things look bad, but it's gonna be okay.
09:56How's it gonna be okay, Virgil?
09:58I've spent my whole life hiding my past and living a lie.
10:01But I always believed I could trust my parents.
10:04Now I find out they're living an even bigger lie.
10:09All I know is we're your friends.
10:12But you have to let us help you.
10:14Okay, first off, who's the heavy dude with the skin condition?
10:18He's... I don't know.
10:20Rich, do an internet check on Shanice's parents.
10:23Maybe that'll give us a lead on this guy.
10:25No, forget it. Don't bother.
10:27I'm gonna handle this by myself.
10:29Shanice, I'm sorry your mom and dad are involved, but they broke the law.
10:32Yeah, and we're crime fighters. We have to, you know, fight crime.
10:36No, butt out.
10:38If you don't, I'll...
10:40I'll tell everybody about your secret identities.
10:47Huh.
10:48She wouldn't do that, would she?
10:52Hey.
11:08I'm locked.
11:09Pressure's steady.
11:11Where's Koenig?
11:12He's over there, snacking.
11:18Koenig, put it down.
11:21Amazing, isn't it?
11:22This must weigh 500 pounds, but to me it feels light as a balloon.
11:30Koenig, you're a fool.
11:31The greater your density, the harder it will be to...
11:33I know what it's doing to me, Jonathan, but I'm hungry.
11:36The longer I'm like this, the more mass I need to absorb.
11:39The pressure chamber can't take your weight.
11:41You'll break it.
11:42And everything you've done to yourself and to us will be for nothing.
11:45Well, Jonathan,
11:47that's why I'm counting on you and Dolores to make sure that doesn't happen.
11:56You keep working, and I'll go greet our intruders.
12:01Show him.
12:09It's over.
12:10You have to step in.
12:13I never thought I'd see this place again.
12:24Welcome back, Shanice.
12:26Aren't you gonna say hello to an old family friend?
12:38Darling, we're so sorry we...
12:40Sorry doesn't cut it.
12:42What are you doing back here?
12:43The government shut this place down.
12:45We needed a place to work.
12:48What's going on?
12:51As you know, before you were...
12:56Before you came along, we worked with Dr. Koenig here.
12:59We were trying to find a way for living cells to absorb energy more efficiently.
13:03Bypass the whole metabolic process.
13:04It was a dead end.
13:06We went on to another project.
13:08Me?
13:08Yes.
13:09While Koenig continued his research.
13:11He experimented on himself.
13:13You see the results.
13:15I achieved my goal.
13:17I gained the ability to absorb mass from other objects.
13:20Their atomic structure collapses.
13:22I become tougher.
13:25Unfortunately, I also ended up with some unpleasant side effects.
13:29I can't stop the process.
13:31Soon he won't be able to move.
13:33He'll become a living statue.
13:34That's why he stole those things.
13:36So we could build this chamber and force the cure into his skin under pressure.
13:41Why help him at all?
13:42Simple self-interest.
13:44Showa.
13:50If your parents don't cure me, I'll push this button.
13:54Three minutes later, those Karas will inject them with poison.
13:57I can break those in a second.
14:00Ah, but if you even try, they'll go off.
14:04And I'm the only one who knows the deactivation code.
14:08You are sick.
14:09Agreed.
14:10Now let's get to work.
14:14Any luck, Rich?
14:15No, nothing much.
14:17In fact, the only picture file I found is an old annual report from the last place they worked.
14:23Wait.
14:23Zoom in on that guy.
14:27A little digital doctorate.
14:30Check it out.
14:31It's our heavy man.
14:33Let's roll.
14:42Seals are good.
14:43Pressure's increasing.
14:46I'm infusing the antidote.
14:48Now.
14:57What's wrong?
14:58His skin is too dense.
15:00None of the antidote is getting through.
15:03Koenig, this isn't working.
15:05Don't stop.
15:06Turn off the pressure.
15:08But we're already in the red.
15:09I don't care.
15:14Look out!
15:22I warned you what would happen if you failed me.
15:25You have three minutes left.
15:30It's not their fault!
15:38Kiss your parents goodbye, she is.
15:46Oh yeah!
15:47Interception!
15:50What'd we miss?
15:52You have to stop him!
15:54No!
16:00No gear, wait!
16:01My parents need you!
16:05Hey, Heavy!
16:06This Novaverse is lighting you up!
16:09You absorb anything you throw at me.
16:12Can the same be said for you?
16:14I don't like the sound of that.
16:15Let's have a little lesson in structural engineering static.
16:31Class dismissed.
16:38This guy really knows how to bring down the house.
16:42Come on, backpack.
16:44Find the combo.
16:45One minute.
16:46I don't want to lose you.
16:54They put you free!
17:08You absorbed everything.
17:11Not everything.
17:18No!
17:19Let me handle this.
17:21Come on, backpack.
17:21You can do it.
17:23Four seconds.
17:24Three.
17:25Two.
17:32Yes!
17:37Thank goodness.
17:38I gotta help static.
17:40Gear?
17:41I gotta go.
17:44Wait for me!
17:46You had to interfere, didn't you?
17:48Well, now you'll pay the ultimate price.
17:57What's below this floor?
17:59Underground parking.
18:01Why?
18:11No!
18:13No!
18:13No!
18:15No!
18:15No!
18:16No!
18:16No!
18:30You can't...
18:31Maybe somebody can find a cure.
18:33One thing's for sure.
18:35He's not going anywhere.
18:41Listen, guys.
18:42I'm sorry about before.
18:43When I made that threat,
18:45I would never give away your secrets.
18:48No biggie.
18:49It was the heat of the moment.
18:50This stuff happens all the time when you're a team.
18:53A team?
18:56Uh, yeah.
18:58Sure.
18:59We're a team.
19:00Why not?
19:01Shanice, you're welcome to join us anytime you're in town.
19:03Cool.
19:05Just call first, okay?
19:06Let's go.
19:07Show me.
19:08Oh, no.
