MR. INCREDIBLE
Is this on?
INTERVIEWER
That's fine.
MR. INCREDIBLE
I can break through walls, I just can't...
INTERVIEWER
That's fine.
MR. INCREDIBLE
I can't get this on.
INTERVIEWER
So, Mr. Incredible...do you have a secret identity?
MR. INCREDIBLE
Every superhero has a secret identity. I don't know a
single one who doesn't. Who wants the pressure of being super all the time?
ELASTIGIRL
Of course I have a secret identity. Can you see me in this
at the supermarket? Come on. Who'd want to go shopping as Elastigirl, y'know
what I mean?
FROZONE
Superladies, they're always trying to tell you their secret
identity. Think it'll strengthen the relationship or something like that. I
said, ''Girl, I don't want to know about your mild-mannered alter ego.'' or
anything like that. I mean, you tell me you're a
super-mega-ultra-lightning-babe, that's all right with me. I'm good. I'm good.
MR. INCREDIBLE
No matter how many times you save the world, it always
manages to get back in jeopardy again. Sometimes I just want it to stay saved,
you know? For a little bit. I feel like the maid. ''I just cleaned up this
mess. Can we keep it clean for ten minutes?''
INTERVIEWER
I could get to that point.
MR. INCREDIBLE
''Please?''
INTERVIEWER
Wait, no, don't get up. We're not finished.
MR. INCREDIBLE
Sometimes l think I'd just like the simple life, you know?
Relax a little and raise a family.
ELASTIGIRL
Settle down? Are you kidding? I'm at the top of my game!
I'm right up there with the big dogs! Girls, come on. Leave the saving of the
world to the men? I don't think so. I don't think so.

POLICE RADIO
We interrupt for an important bulletin. A deadly high-speed
pursuit between police and armed gunmen is underway, traveling northbound on
San Pablo Ave.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Yeah, I've got time.
OLD LADY
Mr. lncredible. Um, Mr. Incredible...
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
What is it, ma'am?
OLD LADY
My cat, Squeaker, won't come down.
[cat meows]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Certainly, ma'am but I suggest you stand clear. There could
be trouble.
OLD LADY
No, no. He's quite tame.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Let go now!
[cat yowls]
POLICE OFFICER 1
Thank you, Mr. lncredible. You've done it again.
POLICE OFFICER 2
Yeah, you're the best.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No, I'm just here to help.
POLICE RADIO
Attention all units. We have a tour bus robbery...
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Tour bus robbery. I've still got time. Officers. Ma'am.
Squeaker.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Cool! Ready for take-off!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
What the...? Who are you supposed to be?
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Well, I'm lncrediBoy.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
What? No. You're that kid from the fan club. [stammering]
Brophy. Brody. Buddy! Buddy!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
My name is lncrediBoy.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Look, I've been nice, I've stood for photos, signed every
scrap of paper you pushed at me but this is...
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
No, you don't have to worry about training me. I know all
your moves, your crime fighting style, favorite catch phrases, everything! I'm
your number one fan!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Hey! Hey, wait!
__________________________________________SCENE
3__________________________________________
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You know...you can tell a lot about a woman by the contents
of her purse, but maybe that's not what you had in mind.
THIEF
Hey, look--
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Elastigirl.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Mr. lncredible.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No, it's all right. I've got him.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Sure, you've got him. I just took him out for you.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Sure, you took him out. His attention was on me.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
A fact I exploited to do my job.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
My job, you mean.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
A simple thank you will suffice.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Thanks, but I don't need any help.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Whatever happened to ''ladies first''?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Well, whatever happened to equal treatment?
THIEF
Hey, look, the lady got me first.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Well, we could share, you know.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I work alone.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Well, I think you need to be more...flexible.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Are you doing anything later?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
I have a previous engagement.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
[whistles]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Now, you just stay here. They usually pick up the garbage
in an hour.
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Hey, lncredible!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Hey, Frozone!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Shouldn't you be getting ready?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I still got time.
[crowd screaming]
WOMAN
He's gonna jump!
SANSWEET
I think you broke something.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
With counseling, I think you'll come to forgive me.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Wait a minute.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
[coughing] Bomb Voyage.
VOYAGE
[French] Mr. Incredible!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
And lncrediBoy!
VOYAGE
lncrediBoy?
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Hey, hey! Aren't you curious about how I get around so fast?
See? I have these rocket boots--
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Go home, Buddy.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
What?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Now.
VOYAGE
[French] Little oaf.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Can we talk? You always say be true to yourself, but you
never say which part of yourself to be true to. Well, I've finally figured out
who I am. I am your ward... lncrediBoy!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
And now, you have officially carried it too far, Buddy.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
This is because I don't have powers, isn't it? Well not
every superhero has powers, you know. You can be super without them. I invented
these. I can fly. Can you fly?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.
VOYAGE
[French] And your outfit is totally ridiculous!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Just give me one chance! I'll show you. I'll go get the
police.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Buddy, don't!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
It'll only take a second, really.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No, stop! There's a bomb!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Let go! You're wrecking my flight pattern! I can do this if
you let go!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Will you just...? I'm trying to help! Stop!
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
Let go of my cape!
__________________________________________SCENE
4__________________________________________
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Take this one home. And make sure his mom knows what he's
been doing.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
I can help you. You're making a mista---hey!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
The injured jumper. You sent paramedics?
POLICE OFFICER
They've already picked him up.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
The blast in that building was caused by Bomb Voyage who I
caught in the act robbing the vault. Now, we might be able to nab him if we set
up a perimeter.
POLICE OFFICER
You mean he got away?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Well, yeah. Skippy here made sure of that.
BUDDY (INCREDIBOY)
lncrediBoy!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You're not affiliated with me! Holy smokes, I'm late.
Listen, I've gotta be somewhere.
POLICE OFFICER
What about Bomb Voyage?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Any other night, I'd go after him myself, but I really
gotta go. But don't worry. We'll get him! Eventually!
__________________________________________SCENE

BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Is the night still young?
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
You're very late.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
How do I look? Good?
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Oh, the mask! You still got the mask.
[cracks neck]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Showtime.
PRIEST
Robert Parr, will you have this woman to be your lawful
wedded wife?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
You're late. When you asked me if I was doing anything
later, I didn't realize you'd actually forgotten. I thought it was playful
banter.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
It was playful banter.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Cutting it kinda close, don't you think?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You need to be more... flexible.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
I love you, but if we're gonna make this work, you've gotta
be more than Mr. lncredible. You know that. Don't you?
PRIEST
...so long as you both shall live?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I do.
PRIEST
I pronounce this couple husband and wife.
[people cheering and whistling]
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
As long as we both shall live. No matter what happens.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Hey, come on. We're superheroes. What could happen?
ANNOUNCER
In a stunning turn of events, a superhero is being sued for
saving someone who, apparently, didn't want to be saved. The plaintiff, Oliver Sansweet,
who was foiled in his attempted suicide by Mr. Incredible, has filed suit
against the famed superhero in Superior Court.
SANSWEET'S LAWYER
Mr. Sansweet didn't ask to be saved. Mr. Sansweet didn't
want to be saved. And the injury received from Mr. Incredible ''actions'', so
quote, causes him daily pain.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Hey, I saved your life!
SANSWEET
You didn't save my life! You ruined my death, that's what
you did!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Listen--
MR. INCREDIBLE'S LAWYER
My client has no further comment at this time.
ANNOUNCER
Five days later, another suit was filed by victims of the
el train accident. Incredible's court losses cost the government millions. And
opened the flood gates for dozens of superhero lawsuits the world over.
WOMAN
It is time for their secret identity to become their only
identity. Time for them to join us, or go away.
ANNOUNCER
Under tremendous public pressure, and the crushing
financial burden of an ever mounting series of lawsuits, the government quietly
initiated the superhero relocation program. The supers will be granted amnesty
from responsibility for past actions, in exchange for the promise to never
again resume hero work. Where are they now? They are living among us. Average
citizens, average heroes. Quietly and anonymously continuing to make the world
a better place.

MRS. HOGENSON
Denied? You're denying my claim? I don't understand. I have
full coverage.
BOB
I'm sorry, Mrs. Hogenson, but our liability is spelled out
in paragraph 17. It states clearly...
MRS. HOGENSON
I can't pay for this.
BOB
[phone rings] Excuse me. [answers phone] Claims, Bob Parr.
HELEN
I'm calling to celebrate a momentous occasion. We're now
officially moved in.
BOB
Yeah, well, that's great, honey. In the last three years
don't count because...
HELEN
Because I finally unpacked the last box. Now, it's
official. Ha, ha, ha. Why do we have so much junk?
BOB
Listen, honey, I've got a client.
HELEN
Say no more. Go save the world one policy at a time, honey.
Oh! I gotta go pick up the kids from school. See you tonight.
BOB
Bye, honey. Excuse me. Where were we?
MRS. HOGENSON
[sobbing] I'm on a fixed income, and if you can't help me,
I don't know what I'll do. [blows nose loudly] [sobbing]
BOB
All right, listen closely. I'd like to help you, but I
can't. I'd like to tell you to take a copy of your policy to Norma Wilcox
on...[whispering] Norma Wilcox. W-l-L-C-O-X. On the third floor. But I can't. I
also do not advise you to fill out and file a WS2475 form with our legal
department on the second floor. I wouldn't expect someone to get back to you
quickly to resolve the matter. I'd like to help, but there's nothing I can do.
MRS. HOGENSON
Oh, thank you, young man.
BOB
Shhh! [shouting] I'm sorry, ma'am! I know you're upset!
[whispering] Pretend to be upset.
MRS. HOGENSON
[sobbing]
MR. HUPH
Parr! You authorized payment on the Walker policy?!
BOB
Someone broke into their house, Mr. Huph. Their policy
clearly covers--
MR. HUPH
I don't wanna know about their coverage, Bob! Don't tell me
about their coverage. Tell me how you're keeping Insuricare in the black. Tell
me how that's possible, with you writing checks to every Harry Hardluck and
Sally Sobstory that gives you a phone call.
[PA Announcement]
Morning break is over. Morning break is over.

7__________________________________________
PRINCIPAL
I appreciate you coming down here, Mrs. Parr.
HELEN
What's this about? Has Dash done something wrong?
BERNIE
He's a disruptive influence and he openly mocks me in front
of the class.
DASH
He says.
BERNIE
Look, I know it's you! He puts thumbtacks on my stool.
HELEN
You saw him do this?
BERNIE
Well...not really. No. Actually, not.
HELEN
Oh, then how do you know it was him?
BERNIE
I hid a camera. Yeah, and this time, I've got him. See? You
see? You don't see it? He moves! Right there! Wait, wait! Right there! Right as
I'm sitting down! I don't know how he does it, but there's no tack before he
moves and after he moves, there's a tack. Coincidence? I think not!
PRINCIPAL
Bernie...
BERNIE
Don't ''Bernie'' me. [screaming] This little rat is guilty!
PRINCIPAL
You and your son can go now, Mrs. Parr. I'm sorry for the
trouble.
BERNIE
You're letting him go again? He's guilty! You can see it on
his smug little face. Guilty, I say, guilty!
HELEN
Dash, this is the third time this year you've been sent to
the office. We need to find a better outlet. A more...constructive outlet.
DASH
Maybe I could, if you'd let me go out for sports.
HELEN
Honey, you know why we can't do that.
DASH
I promise I'll slow up. I'll only be the best by a tiny
bit.
HELEN
Dashiell Robert Parr, you are an incredibly competitive boy.
And a bit of a showoff. The last thing you need is temptation.
DASH
You always say, ''Do your best.'' But you don't really mean
it. Why can't I do the best that I can do?
HELEN
Right now, honey, the world just wants us to fit in, and to
fit in, we just gotta be like everybody else.
DASH
Dad always said our powers were nothing to be ashamed of.
Our powers made us special.
HELEN
Everyone's special, Dash.
DASH
Which is another way of saying no one is.
BOY
Hey, Rydinger. Where you headed?
GIRL
Hi, Tony.
TONY
Hey.
BOY
Hey, Tony, can I carry your books?
TONY
That's kind of funny.
BOY 1
Hey, Tony, do you play football?
BOY 2
Tony, I thought we were gonna go swimming.
VIOLET
He looked at me.
[car horn honking]
DASH
Come on, Violet!
BOB
[muttering] Darn kids. Sitting on the driveway...
BOB
Oh, great.
[unintelligible muttering]
__________________________________________SCENE
8__________________________________________
DASH
Mom. You're making weird faces again.
HELEN
No, I'm not.
BOB
You make weird faces, honey.
HELEN
Do you have to read at the table?
BOB
Uh-huh. Yeah.
HELEN
Smaller bites, Dash. Yikes! Bob, could you help the
carnivore cut his meat?
DASH
Ow.
HELEN
Dash, you have something you wanna tell your father about
school?
DASH
[nervously] Well, we dissected a frog.
HELEN
Dash got sent to the office again.
BOB
[distracted] Good. Good.
HELEN
No, Bob, that's bad.
BOB
What?
HELEN
Dash got sent to the office again.
BOB
What?! What for?
DASH
Nothing.
HELEN
He put a tack on the teacher's chair...during class.
DASH
Nobody saw me. You could barely see it on the tape.
BOB
They caught you on tape and you still got away with it? Whoa!
You must have been booking. How fast did you think were you going?
HELEN
Bob! We are not encouraging this.
BOB
I'm not encouraging, I'm just asking how fast...
HELEN
Honey!
BOB
Great. First the car, now I gotta pay to fix the table...
HELEN
The car? What happened to the car?
BOB
Here. I'm getting a new plate.
HELEN
So, how about you, Vi? How was school?
VIOLET
Nothing to report.
HELEN
You've hardly touched your food.
VIOLET
I'm not hungry for meatloaf.
HELEN
Well, it is leftover night. We have steak, pasta. What are
you hungry for?
DASH
Tony Rydinger.
VIOLET
Shut up!
DASH
Well, you are.
VIOLET
I said, shut up, you little insect!
DASH
Well, she is.
HELEN
Do not shout at the table. Honey!
BOB
Kids! Listen to your mother.
DASH
She'd eat if we were having Tony loaf.
VIOLET
That's it!
HELEN
Stop it!
DASH
You're gonna be toast!
HELEN
Stop running in the house. Sit down!
DASH
Ow! Hey, no force fields!
VIOLET
You started it.
HELEN
You sit down! You sit down! Violet!
BOB
''Simon J. Paladino, longtime advocate of superhero rights,
is missing''? Gazerbeam.
HELEN
Bob! It's time to engage. Do something! Don't just stand
there! I need you to intervene!
BOB
You want me to intervene? Okay. I'm intervening. I'm
intervening!
HELEN
Violet, let go of your brother!
JACK-JACK
Hello?
BOB
Get the door.
DASH
Hey, Lucius!
LUCIUS
Hey, Speedo. Hey, Helen. Vi, Jack-Jack.
BOB
He-hey! Ice of you to drop by.
LUCIUS
Ha! Never heard that one before.
DASH
[gargling] Lucius!
LUCIUS
Whoa!
LUCIUS
Ha, ha.
DASH
Oh! I like it when it shatters.
BOB
I'll be back later.
HELEN
Hey, where are you two going?
BOB
It's Wednesday.
HELEN
Oh. Bowling night. Say hello to Honey for me, Lucius.
LUCIUS
Will do. Good night, Helen. Good night, kids.
HELEN
Don't think you've avoided talking about your trip to the
principal's office, young man. Your father and I are still gonna discuss it.
DASH
I'm not the only kid who's been sent to the office, you
know.
HELEN
Other kids don't have superpowers. Now, it's perfectly
normal...
VIOLET
Normal? What do you know about normal? What does anyone in
this family know about normal?
HELEN
Now, wait a minute, young lady.
VIOLET
We act normal, mom. I wanna be normal! The only normal one
is Jack-Jack, and he's not even toilet trained.
[Jack-Jack laughing]
DASH
Lucky. I meant about being normal.
__________________________________________SCENE
9__________________________________________
LUCIUS
So now I'm in deep trouble. I mean, one more jolt of this
death ray and I'm an epitaph. Somehow I managed to find cover and what does
Baron Von Ruthless do?
BOB
He starts monologuing.
LUCIUS
He starts monologuing! He starts like this prepared speech
about how feeble I am compared to him. How inevitable my defeat is, how the
world will soon be his! Yada, yada, yada.
BOB
Yammering.
LUCIUS
Yammering! I mean, the guy has me on a platter, and he
won't shut up.
POLICE RADIO
Municiberg, we have a 23-56...
BOB
23-56, what is that? Robbery?
LUCIUS
This is just sad.
BOB
Yeah, robbery. Want to catch a robber?
LUCIUS
No. Tell you the truth, I'd rather go bowling. Look, what
if we actually did what our wives think we're doing? Just to shake things up.
WOMAN
He's not alone. The fat guy's still with him. They're just
talking.
LUCIUS
What are we doing here, Bob?
BOB
Protecting people.
LUCIUS
Nobody asked us.
BOB
You need an invitation?
LUCIUS
I'd like one, yes. We keep sneaking out to do this,
and...you remember Gazerbeam?
BOB
Yeah. There was something about him in the paper.
LUCIUS
He had trouble adjusting to civilian life, too.
BOB
When's the last time you saw him?
LUCIUS
I don't see anyone from the old days, Bob. Just you. And
we're pushing our luck as it is.
BOB
Oh, come on.
LUCIUS
It was fun the first time, but if we keep doing this, we're
gonna get--
POLICE RADIO
We have a report on a fire...
BOB
A fire. We're close! [yelling] Yeah, baby!
LUCIUS
We're gonna get caught.
BOB
Woohoo! Haha! Fire! Yeah!
LUCIUS
Is that everybody?
BOB
Yeah, that's everyone.
LUCIUS
It better be.
BOB
Can't you put this out?
LUCIUS
I can't lay down a layer thick enough! It's evaporating too
fast!
BOB
Well, what's that mean?
LUCIUS
It means it's hot! And I'm dehydrated, Bob!
BOB
You're out of ice? You can't run out of ice! I thought you
can use water in the air!
LUCIUS
There is no water in this air! What's your excuse, run out
of muscle?
BOB
I just can't go smashing into walls! The building's getting
weaker by the second! It's gonna come down on top of us!
LUCIUS
I wanted to go bowling!
BOB
All right! Stay right on my tail! This is gonna get hot!
BOB
Yeah.
BOB
[realizes they're in a jewelry store...] Uh-oh.
BOB
[...and unknowingly trips the alarm] Oh, good.
[alarm sounds]
LUCIUS
Oh, now...that ain't right!
LUCIUS/BOB
- We look like bad guys! Incompetent bad guys!
- You can get water out of the air!
POLICE OFFICER
Freeze!
POLICE OFFICER
Freeze!
LUCIUS
I'm thirsty.
POLICE OFFICER
I said freeze!
LUCIUS
I'm just getting a drink.
POLICE OFFICER
Alright. You've had your drink. Now I want you to...
LUCIUS
I know. I know. Freeze.
[police radio chatter]
POLICE RADIO
Shots fired!
OFFICERS
Police officers!
LUCIUS
That was way too close. We are not doing that again.
MAN
[over radio] Verify you want to switch targets? Over.
WOMAN
Trust me. This is the one he's been looking for.
__________________________________________SCENE
10__________________________________________
HELEN
I thought you'd be back by 11 .
BOB
I said I'd be back later.
HELEN
I assumed you'd be back later. lf you came back at
all...you'd be ''back later''.
BOB
Well, I'm back, okay?
HELEN
Is this rubble?
BOB
[with mouth full] It was just a little workout. Just to
stay loose.
HELEN
You know how I feel about that, Bob. Darn you! We can't
blow cover again!
BOB
The building was coming down anyway.
HELEN
What?! You knocked down a building?!
BOB
It was on fire. Structurally unsound. It was coming down
anyway.
HELEN
Tell me you haven't been listening to the police scanner
again?
BOB
Look, I performed a public service. You act like that's a
bad thing.
HELEN
It is a bad thing, Bob! Uprooting our family again, so you
can relive the glory days is a very bad thing.
BOB
Reliving the glory days is better than acting like they
didn't happen!
HELEN
Yes! They happened! But this, our family, is what's
happening now, Bob. And you are missing this! I can't believe you don't want to
go to your own son's graduation.
BOB
It's not a graduation. He's moving from the fourth grade to
the fifth grade.
HELEN
It's a ceremony!
BOB
It's psychotic! They keep creating new ways to celebrate
mediocrity but if someone is genuinely exceptional...
HELEN
This is not about you, Bob. This is about Dash.
BOB
You want to do something for Dash? Then let him actually
compete. Let him go out for sports!
HELEN
I will not be made the enemy here! You know why we can't do
that.
BOB
Because he'd be great!
HELEN
This is not about you!
BOB
All right, Dash. I know you're listening. Come on out.
HELEN
Vi? You, too, young lady.
BOB
Come on. Come on out. It's okay, kids. We're just having a
discussion.
VIOLET
Pretty loud discussion.
BOB
Yeah. But that's okay. Because what's important is that
Mommy and I are always a team. We're always united against, uh, the forces of,
uh...
HELEN
Pigheadedness?
BOB
I was gonna say evil or something.
HELEN
We're sorry we woke you. Everything's okay. Go back to bed.
It's late.
DASH
Good night, Mom. Night, Dad.
VIOLET
Good night.
HELEN
In fact, we should all be in bed.
[crickets chirping, dog barks]

WOMAN [on phone]
Request claim on claim numbers 158183...
MR. HUPH [over the intercom]
Haven't you got him yet?! Where is he?!
HUPH'S SECRETARY [over the intercom]
Mr. Huph would like to talk to you in his office.
BOB
Now?
HUPH'S SECRETARY [over the intercom]
Now.
MR. HUPH
Sit down, Bob.
MR. HUPH
I'm not happy, Bob. Not happy. Ask me why.
BOB
Okay. Why?
MR. HUPH
Why what? Be specific, Bob.
BOB
Why are you unhappy?
MR. HUPH
Your customers make me unhappy.
BOB
What, you've gotten complaints?
MR. HUPH
Complaints I can handle. What I can't handle is your
customers' inexplicable knowledge of lnsuricare's inner workings! They're
experts. Experts, Bob! Exploiting every loophole, dodging every obstacle!
They're penetrating the bureaucracy!
BOB
Did I do something illegal?
MR. HUPH
No.
BOB
Are you saying we shouldn't help our customers?
MR. HUPH
The law requires that I answer no.
BOB
We're supposed to help people.
MR. HUPH
We're supposed to help our people! Starting with our
stockholders, Bob. Who's helping them out, huh? You know, Bob, a company...
BOB
Is like an enormous clock.
MR. HUPH
...is like an enormous clo--yes. Precisely. It only works if
all the little cogs mesh together. Now, a clock needs to be cleaned,
well-lubricated and wound tight. The best clocks have jewel movements, cogs
that fit, that cooperate by design. [chuckling] I'm being metaphorical, Bob.
You know what I mean by cooperative cogs? Bob? Bob? Look at me when I'm talking
to you, Parr!
BOB
That man out there, he needs help.
MR. HUPH
Do not change the subject, Bob. We're discussing your
attitude!
BOB
He is getting mugged!
MR. HUPH
Well, let's hope we don't cover him.
BOB
I'll be right back.
MR. HUPH
Stop right now or you're fired! Close the door. Get over
here, now.
MR. HUPH
I'm not happy, Bob. Not happy.
BOB
He got away.
MR. HUPH
Good thing, too. You were this close to losing your jo--
BOB
Uh-oh.

He'll live.
BOB
I'm fired, aren't I?
RICK
Oh, you think?
BOB
What can I say, Rick?
RICK
Nothing you haven't said before.
BOB
Someone was in trouble.
RICK
Someone's always in trouble.
BOB
I had to do something.
RICK
Yeah. Every time you say those words, it means a month and
a half of trouble for me, Bob. It means hundreds of thousands of taxpayer's
dollars.
BOB
I know.
RICK
We gotta pay to keep the company quiet. We gotta pay
damages, erase memories, relocate your family. Every time it gets harder.
Money, money, money, money. We can't keep doing this, Bob! We appreciate what
you did in the old days, but those days are over. From now on, you're on your
own.
RICK
Listen, Bob. Maybe I could relocate you, you know, for old
times' sake.
BOB
No, I can't do that to my family. Everyone just got
settled. I'll make it work. Thanks.
RICK
Take care of yourself.
BOB
Well, what are you waiting for?

I don't know. Something amazing, I guess.

MIRAGE
The Omnidroid 9000 is a top secret prototype battle robot.
lts artificial intelligence enables it to solve any problem it's confronted
with. And, unfortunately...
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Let me guess. It got smart enough to wonder why it had to
take orders.
MIRAGE
We lost control. And now it's loose in the jungle,
threatening our facility. We've had to evacuate all personnel from the island
for their own safety.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
How am I going in?
MIRAGE
The Omnidroid's defenses necessitate an air drop from 5000
feet. lts cloaking devices make it difficult to track. Although we're pretty
sure it's on the southern half of the island. One more thing. Obviously it
represents a significant investment.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You want me to shut it down without completely destroying
it.
MIRAGE
You are Mr. lncredible.
MIRAGE
I've got to warn you, it's a learning robot. Every moment
you spend fighting it only increases its knowledge of how to beat you.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Shut it down. Do it quickly. Don't destroy it.
MIRAGE
And don't die.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Great. Thanks.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Showtime.

Oh, I'm sorry. He won't be dining with us. He hopes you'll
understand.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Of course. I do usually make it a point to know who I'm
working for.
MIRAGE
He prefers a certain amount of anonymity. Surely, you of
all people understand that.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I was just wondering, of all the places to settle down, why
live...
MIRAGE
With a volcano? He's attracted to power. So am I. It's a
weakness we share.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Seems a bit unstable.
MIRAGE
I prefer to think of it as misunderstood.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)

E
My God, you've gotten fat. Come in. Come, come.
E
Yes, things are going quite well. Quite well. My God, no
complaints. But, you know, it is not the same. Not the same at all.
BOB
Weren't you just in the news? Some show in Prayge...
Prague?
E
Milan, darling. Milan. Supermodels. Ha! Nothing super about
them. Spoiled, stupid, little stick figures with poofy lips who think only
about themselves. Feh! I used to design for gods. But perhaps you come with a
challenge, eh? I was surprised to get your call.
BOB
E, I just need a patch job.
E
Hmm. This is megamesh. Outmoded, but very sturdy. And
you've torn right through it! What have you been doing, Robert? Moonlighting
hero work?
BOB
Must have happened a long time ago.
E
I see. This is a hobo suit, darling. You can't be seen in
this. I won't allow it! Fifteen years ago, maybe, but now?
BOB
What do you mean? You designed it.
E
I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now. You
need a new suit. That much is certain.
BOB
A new suit? Where the heck am I gonna get a new suit?
E
You can't! It's impossible! I'm far too busy. So ask me
now, before I again become sane.
BOB
Wait. You want to make me a suit?
E
You push too hard, darling! But I accept. It will be bold.
Dramatic!
BOB
Yeah.
E
Heroic!
BOB
Yeah, something classic, like Dynaguy! Oh! He had a great
look! Oh, the cape and the boots...
E
No capes!
BOB
Isn't that my decision?
E
Do you remember Thunderhead? Tall, storm powers. Nice man.
Good with kids.
BOB
Listen, E...
E
November 15th of '58. All was well, another day saved when
his cape snagged on a missile fin.
BOB
Thunderhead was not the brightest bulb...
E
Stratogale! April 23rd, '57. Cape caught in a jet turbine.
BOB
E, you can't generalize about these things.
E
Meta-man, express elevator. Dynaguy, snag on takeoff.
Splashdown, sucked into a vortex. No capes! Now, go on. Your new suit will be
finished before your next assignment.
BOB
You know I'm retired from hero work.
E
As am l, Robert. Yet, here we are.
BOB
E, I only need a patch job. For sentimental reasons.

much for Mr. lncredible! Whoa! Whoa! It's finally ready. You know, I went
through quite a few supers to get it worthy to fight you, but man, it wasn't
good enough! After you trashed the last one, I had to make some major
modifications. Sure it was difficult, but you are worth it. I mean, after
all...I am your biggest fan.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)

My name is not Buddy! And it's not lncrediBoy either! That

did you say to me?

Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.
SYNDROME
It tore me apart. But I learned an important lesson. You
can't count on anyone. Especially your heroes.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I was wrong to treat you that way. I'm sorry.
SYNDROME
See? Now you respect me, because I'm a threat. That's the
way it works. Turns out there's a lot of people, whole countries who want

rich? I invented weapons. And now I have a weapon only I can defeat. And when I
unleash it, I'll get--

This project has completely confiscated my life, darling.
Consumed me as only hero work can. My best work, I must admit. Simple, elegant,
yet bold. You will die.
HELEN
E, I just...
E
I did Robert's suit, and it turned out so beautiful, I had to
continue.
HELEN
E, It's great to see you, but I gotta tell you I have no
idea what you're talking about. I just...
E
Yes, words are useless. Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble,
gobble! Too much of it, darling. Too much! That is why I show you my work. That
is why you are here.
E
Edna Mode. And guest.
E
Come. Sit.
E
Cream and sugar?
HELEN
Thanks.
E
I started with the baby.
HELEN
Started?
E
Shh! Darling! Shh! I cut it a little roomy for the free
movement. The fabric is comfortable for sensitive skin, and can also withstand
a temperature of over 1000 degrees. Completely bulletproof. And machine
washable, darling. That's a new feature.
HELEN
What on earth do you think the baby will be doing?!
E
Well, I'm sure I don't know, darling. Luck favors the
prepared. I didn't know the baby's powers, so I covered the basics.
HELEN
Jack-Jack doesn't have any powers.
E
No? Well, he'll look fabulous anyway.
E
Your boy's suit I designed to withstand enormous friction
without heating up or wearing out. A useful feature.
E
Your daughter's suit was tricky. But I finally created a
sturdy material that will disappear completely as she does.
E
Your suit can stretch as far as you can, without injuring
yourself, and still retain its shape. Virtually indestructible...yet it
breathes like Egyptian cotton. As an extra feature, each suit contains a homing
device, giving you the precise global location of the wearer at the touch of a
button. Well, darling? What do you think?
HELEN
What do I think? Bob is retired! I'm retired! Our family is
underground. You helped my husband resume secret hero work behind my back?!
E
Well, I assumed you knew, darling. Why would he keep
secrets from you?
HELEN
He wouldn't. Didn't. Doesn't.
E
Men at Robert's age are often unstable. Prone to weakness.
HELEN
What are you saying?
E
Do you know where he is?
HELEN
Of course.
E
Do you know where he is?

what!" It was your idea! Your idea! Hundred percent all-yours,
all-the-time idea!

You don't have to worry about one single thing, Mrs. Parr.
I've got this baby-sitting thing wired. I've taken courses and learned CPR and

HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Put these on. Your identity is your most valuable
possession. Protect it. And if anything goes wrong, use your powers.
VIOLET
But you said never to use...
VIOLET
I know what I said! [sighs] Remember the bad guys on those
shows you used to watch on Saturday mornings? Well, these guys are not like
those guys. They won't exercise restraint because you're children. They will
kill you if they get the chance. Do not give them that chance.
VIOLET
Mom?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Vi, I'm counting on you.
VIOLET
There's something I...
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
I'm counting on you. Be strong. Dash, if anything goes wrong,
I want you to run as fast as you can.
DASH
As fast as I can?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
As fast as you can. Stay hidden. Keep each other safe. I'll
be back by morning.
VIOLET
Mom! Mom, what happened on the plane. I'm sorry. [stammering]
I wanted to help. I mean, when you asked me to... I'm sorry.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Shh. It isn't your fault. It wasn't fair for me to suddenly
ask so much of you. But things are different now. And doubt is a luxury we
can't afford anymore, sweetie. You have more power than you realize. Don't
think. And don't worry. lf the time comes, you'll know what to do. It's in your
blood.
MIRAGE
He's not weak, you know.
SYNDROME
What?
MIRAGE
Valuing life is not weakness.
SYNDROME
Oh, hey. Look, look...if you're talking about what happened
in the containment unit, I had everything under control.
MIRAGE
And disregarding it is not strength.
SYNDROME
I called his bluff, sweetheart, that's all. I knew he
wouldn't have it in him to actually...
MIRAGE
Next time you gamble, bet your own life!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Okay, okay, okay.
[voices on radio]
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
A rocket?
[sighs, gasps]
GUARD
Hey!
[struggling]
DASH
Well, not that this isn't fun, but I'm gonna go look
around.
VIOLET
What do you think is going on here? You think we're on
vacation or something? Mom and Dad's lives could be in jeopardy. Or worse,
[whispering] their marriage.
DASH
Their marriage? So, the bad guys are trying to wreck Mom
and Dad's marriage.
VIOLET
Oh, forget it. You're so immature.
DASH
Okay, I'm gonna go look around.
VIOLET
Mom said to stay hidden.
DASH
I'm not gonna leave the cave. Sheesh!
[voices over radio]
DASH
[echoing] Cool!
DASH
[echoing] Cool!
[over radio] Roger. We are ready for launch.
DASH
Vi, Vi!
VIOLET
What did you do?
[over radio] ETA two-niner. Over. TCI clear. Condition
yellow. Status norm.
[over radio] Not responding to IFF. IRCM reads negative.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
[gasps] Bob.
GUARD 1
Huh? What?
GUARD 2
Uh, I didn't say anything.

Hey! Hey, Violet! Come here, look.
VIOLET
What?
DASH
It talks!
VIOLET
What?
DASH
There. That one.
ROBOT
Voice key incorrect.
VIOLET
''Voice key''?
ROBOT
Voice key incorrect.
VIOLET
Wait a second...
[alarm sounds]
DASH
What do we do?
VIOLET
Run!
DASH
Where are we going?
VIOLET
Away from here!
[PA] Intruder alert. Intruder alert. Intruder alert.
MIRAGE
There isn't much time.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
[grabs Mirage by the neck] No, there isn't. In fact,
there's no time at all.
MIRAGE
[choking] Please...
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Why are you here? How can you possibly bring me lower? What
more can you take away from me?
MIRAGE
[choking] Family survived the crash. They're here on the
island!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
They're alive?
MIRAGE
[gasping, coughing]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Helen?
MIRAGE
Hello. You must be Mrs. Incre--
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
She was helping me to escape.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
No. That's what I was doing. Let go of me! Let go, you
lousy, lying, unfaithful creep!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
How could I betray the perfect woman?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Oh, you're referring to me now?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Where are the kids?
MIRAGE
They might've triggered the alert.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
What?!
MIRAGE
Security's been sent into the jungle. You better get going.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Now our kids are in danger?!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
lf you suspected danger, why'd you bring them?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
I didn't bring 'em, they stowed away. And I don't think
you're not striking the proper tone here!
GUARD
Think they're supers?
VIOLET
Dash, remember what Mom said.
DASH
What?
GUARD 2
Hey! Stop talking!
GUARD 3
Hold it! Freeze!
VIOLET
Dash, run!
DASH
What?
VIOLET
Run!
DASH
Oh yeah!
GUARD
What the--?! They're supers!
GUARD 2
Get the boy! Show yourself!
[spitting]
[Dash screams]
GUARD
Hey!
DASH
Ha, ha!
DASH
I'm alive. Yeah!
[Dash shouting]
DASH
Uh-oh.
[water sloshing]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I should've told you I was fired, I admit it. But I didn't
want you to worry.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
You didn't want me to worry? And now we're running for our
lives through some godforsaken jungle!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You keep trying to pick a fight, but I'm still just happy
you're alive.
GUARD
I know you're there, Little Miss Disappear.
GUARD
You can't hide from me.
GUARD
There you are.
DASH
Hey!
DASH
Don't touch my sister!
DASH
How are you doing that?
VIOLET
I don't know!
DASH
Whatever you do, don't stop!
VIOLET
Mom! Dad! Hey!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Kids!
MR. INCREDIBLE/ELASTIGIRL
- You're all right.
- Oh, you're all right!
VIOLET
We were so worried about you.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I thought I'd never see you again.
MR. INCREDIBLE/ELASTIGIRL
I love you.
DASH
Wow.
VIOLET
Whoa.
SYNDROME
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey, time out! What have we here?
Matching uniforms? Oh, no! Elastigirl? [laughs] You married Elastigirl? Whoa!
And got busy! It's a whole family of supers! Looks like I've hit the jackpot!
Oh, this is just too good!
__________________________________________SCENE
27__________________________________________
- [on TV] The ship's unique design suggests...
- [on TV] There were no fatalities...
SYNDROME
Huh? Huh? Oh, come on! You gotta admit, this is cool. Just
like a movie! The robot will emerge dramatically, do some damage. Throngs of
screaming people! And just when all hope is lost, Syndrome will save the day!
I'll be a bigger hero than you ever were!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
You mean you killed off real heroes so that you could
pretend to be one?
SYNDROME
Oh, I'm real. Real enough to defeat you! And I did it
without your precious gifts, your oh-so-special powers. I'll give them heroics.
I'll give them the most spectacular heroics anyone's ever seen! And when I'm
old and I've had my fun, I'll sell my inventions so that everyone can be
superheroes. Everyone can be super. And when everyone's super...no one will be.
[evil laughter]
[soldiers shouting]
SOLDIER
Fire at will!
- [on TV] It's completely overwhelming the tanks.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I'm sorry. This is my fault. I've been a lousy father.
Blind to what I have. So obsessed with being undervalued that I undervalued all
of you.
DASH
Um..dad?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Shh. Don't interrupt.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
So caught up in the past that I...You are my greatest
adventure. And I almost missed it. I swear, I'm gonna get us out of this safely
if I...
VIOLET
Well, I think Dad has made some excellent progress today
but I think it's time we wind down now.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
We need to get back to the mainland.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
I saw an aircraft hangar on my way in. Straight ahead, I
think.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Where are all the guards?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Go, go!
GUARD
Hey, look. Hey! Every time they run, you take a shot.
GUARD 2
Yeah, okay.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
This is the right hangar, but I don't see any jets.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
A jet's not fast enough.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
What's faster than a jet?
DASH
Hey, how about a rocket?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Great! I can't fly a rocket.
VIOLET
You don't have to. Use the coordinates from the last
launch.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Wait. I bet Syndrome's changed the password by now. How do
I get into the computer?
MIRAGE
Say please.

Where is my supersuit?
HONEY
I, uh...put it away.
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Where?
HONEY
Why do you need to know?
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
I need it!
HONEY
Uh-uh! Don't you think about running off doing no
derrin'-do! We've been planning this dinner for two months!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
The public is in danger!
HONEY
My evening's in danger!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
You tell me where my suit is, woman! We are talking about

HONEY
''Greater good''? I am your wife! I'm the greatest good you

No, Fironic has a different outfit.

No, no, I'm a new superhero! I'm Syndrome!
SYNDROME
All right, stand back.
SYNDROME
Someone needs to teach this hunk of metal a few manners.
SYNDROME
Ha, ha!
DASH
Are we there yet?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
We get there when we get there.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
How you doing, honey?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Do I have to answer?!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Kids, strap yourselves down like I told you!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Here we go, honey!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Ready, Violet? Ready? Now!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
This is gonna be rough!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
The robot's in the financial district. Which exit do I
take?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Traction Avenue.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
That'll take me downtown. I take Seventh, don't I?
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Don't take Seventh!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Great, we missed it!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
You asked me how to get there and I told you. Exit at
Traction!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
That'll take me downtown!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
He's coming up! Get in the right lane! Signal!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Not Traction!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
You're gonna miss it!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Is everybody okay back there?
VIOLET
Super-duper, Dad!
DASH
[laughing] Let's do that again.
[people screaming]
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Wait here and stay hidden. I'm going in.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
While what? I watch helplessly from the sidelines? I don't
think so.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I'm asking you to wait with the kids.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
And I'm telling you not a chance. You're my husband. I'm
with you for better or worse.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I have to do this alone.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
What is this to you? Playtime?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
So you can be Mr. lncredible again?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Then what? What is it?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I'm not...
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Not what?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I'm not strong enough.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Strong enough. And this will make you stronger?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Yes. No!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
That's what this is? Some sort of workout?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I can't lose you again!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I can't. Not again. I'm not... strong enough.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
lf we work together, you won't have to be.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I don't know what'll happen.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Hey. We're superheroes. What can happen?
[screaming]
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Vi! Dash! No!
DASH
Violet?
DASH
Dad!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Go, go!
VIOLET
I'm okay, mom. Really.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Stay here, okay?
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Frozone! Yeah!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Bob!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Hey!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Syndrome's remote!
VIOLET
The remote controls the robot!
DASH
Hey, dad! Throw it, throw it!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Go long!
DASH
Got it!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Honey, take out its guns!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Dash! Gotcha!
VIOLET
Mom, I've got it! I've got the remote!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
A remote? A remote that controls what? The robot?
DASH
It's coming back!
DASH
That wasn't right.
VIOLET
Give me that!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
We can't stop it. The only thing hard enough to penetrate
it is...itself.
DASH
It's getting closer!
VIOLET
It doesn't work!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Kids!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
It's not doing anything!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Lucius, try to buy us some time!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Try the one next to it!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Honey!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Wait a minute. Press that button again!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
No, the other one! The first one!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
First button! Got it!
DASH
It's getting closer!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Look out!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Get out of here, kids! Find a safe spot!
VIOLET
We're not going anywhere!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Press the button!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Not yet!
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Hang on!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
What are you waiting for?!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
A closer target! You got one shot!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Everybody duck!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Hey, Zone.
SYNDROME
Huh? No!
OLD MAN
Hey, did you see that? Eh? That's the way to do it. That's
old school.
OLD MAN 2
Yeah. No school like the old school.
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Just like old times.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Just like old times [gives Frozone a heavy pat on the back]
LUCIUS (FROZONE)
Oh! Yeah. Hurt then too.

We've frozen all of Syndrome's assets. lf he even sneezes,
we'll be there with a hanky and a pair of handcuffs. The people of this country
are indebted to you.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Does this mean we can come out of hiding?
RICK
Let the politicians figure that one out. But I've been
asked to assure you we'll take care of everything else. You did good, Bob.

Hi, this is Kari. I have a question about Jack-Jack..style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Tahoma'>.

Hey, you're wearing your hair back?

[stammering] Yeah, I just... yeah.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
It looks good.
VIOLET
Thanks, Dad.
DASH
That was so cool when you threw that car!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
Not as cool as you running on water!
DASH
Hey, mom! That was sweet when you snagged that bad guy with
your arm and kinda whiplashed him into the other guy. It was so sweet!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Honey, uh, yeah, I'm trying to listen to messages, honey.
[Kari]
- Mrs. Parr, it's me. Jack-Jack is fine, but weird things
are happening.
- Jack-Jack's still fine, but I'm getting really weirded
out! When are you coming back?
DASH
...aced those guys that tried to kill us! That was the best
vacation ever! I love our family.
[Kari]
- I'm not fine, Mrs. Parr! Put that down! Stop it! You need
to call me. I need help, Mrs. Parr!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Bob, listen to this.
[Kari]
- I'm gonna call the police...
- Hi, this is Kari. Sorry for freaking out, but your baby
has special needs.
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
"Special needs"?
RICK
Here we are.
[Kari]
- Anyway, thanks for sending a replacement sitter.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Replacement? I didn't call a replacement.
SYNDROME
Shh. The baby is sleeping. You took away my future. I'm
simply returning the favor. Oh, don't worry, I'll be a good mentor. Supportive,
encouraging. Everything you weren't. And in time, who knows, he might make a
good sidekick. Ha ha!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
He's getting away, Bob! We have to do something! We have to
do something now!
[Jack-Jack cries]
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Something's happening. What's happening?!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
We have to stop him! Throw something!
BOB (MR. INCREDIBLE)
I can't! I might hit Jack-Jack!
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Throw me.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Bob, throw me!
[Jack-Jack cooing]
SYNDROME
No!
SYNDROME
This isn't the end of it! I will get your son, eventually.
I'll get your son!
SYNDROME
Oh, no.
HELEN (ELASTIGIRL)
Look at Mommy, honey. Don't look down. Mommy's got you.
Everything is all right.
