[background chatter]
- ls this on? - [interviewer] That's fine.
l can break through walls, l just can't...
- [interviewer] That's fine. - l can't get this on.
[interviewer] Mr. lncredible... Do you have a secret identity?
Every superhero has a secret identity. l don't know a single one who doesn't.
Who wants the pressure of being super all the time?
Of course l have a secret identity.
Can you see me in this at the supermarket? Come on.
Who'd want to go shopping as Elastigirl, know what l mean?
Superladies, they're always trying to tell you their secret identity.
Think it'll strengthen the relationship or something.
l said, ''Girl, l don't want to know about your mild-mannered alter ego.''
l mean, you tell me you're a super-mega-ultra-lightning-babe,
that's all right with me. l'm good. l'm good.
No matter how many times you save the world,
it always manages to get back in jeopardy again.
Sometimes l just want it to stay saved, you know?
For a little bit. l feel like the maid. ''l just cleaned up this mess.
Can we keep it clean for ten minutes?''
[interviewer] l could get to that point.
- ''Please?'' - [interviewer] We're not finished.
Sometimes l think l'd just like the simple life, you know?
Relax a little and raise a family.
Settle down? Are you kidding? l'm at the top of my game!
l'm up there with the big dogs! Girls, come on.
Leave the saving of the world to the men? l don't think so.
l don't think so.
[police siren wails]
[over radio] We interrupt for a bulletin.
A high-speed pursuit between police and armed gunmen is underway,
traveling northbound on San Pablo Ave.
Yeah, l've got time.
Mr. lncredible.
- What is it, ma'am? - My cat, Squeaker, won't come down.
[cat meows]
Certainly. l suggest you stand clear. There could be trouble.
No, he's quite tame.
[gunfire]
[grunts]
[meows]
[beeping]
[sirens wail]
Let go now.
[cat yowls]
Thank you, Mr. lncredible. You've done it again.
- You're the best. - No, l'm just here to help.
[over radio] All units. We have a tour bus robbery...
Tour bus robbery. l've still got time.
Officers. Ma'am. Squeaker.
- Cool! Ready for take-off! - What the...?
- Who are you supposed to be? - l'm lncrediBoy.
What? No.
You're that kid from the fan club.
[stammering] Brophy. Brody. Buddy! Buddy!
My name is lncrediBoy.
l've been nice, l've stood for photos,
signed every scrap of paper you pushed at me...
No, don't worry about training me. l know your moves,
crime fighting style, favorite catch phrases, everything!
l'm your number one fan!
[Buddy] Hey! Hey, wait!
[muttering]
[lncredible] 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.
- Hey, look... - [grunts]
Elastigirl.
Mr. lncredible.
- lt's all right. l've got him. - Sure, you've got him.
- l just took him out for you. - Sure, you did.
- His attention was on me. - A fact l exploited to do my job.
- My job, you mean. - A simple thank you will suffice.
Thanks, but l don't need any help.
Whatever happened to ''ladies first''?
Well, whatever happened to equal treatment?
Look, the lady got me first.
- Well, we could share, you know. - l work alone.
Well, l think you need to be more...
...flexible.
Are you doing anything later?
l have a previous engagement.
[whistles]
Now, you just stay here.
They usually pick up the garbage in an hour.
- [Frozone] Hey, lncredible! - Hey, Frozone!
- Shouldn't you be getting ready? - l still got time.
[crowd screaming]
[woman] He's gonna jump!
[Sansweet] l think you broke something.
With counseling, l think you'll come to forgive me.
Wait a minute.
[Sansweet moaning]
[beeping]
[beeping speeds up]
[coughing] Bomb Voyage.
[Buddy] And lncrediBoy!
[Voyage] lncrediBoy?
Aren't you curious about how l get around so fast? l have rocket boots.
- Go home, Buddy. Now. - What?
Can we talk?
You always say be true to yourself,
but you never say which part to be true to.
Well, l've finally figured out who l am. l am your ward... lncrediBoy!
And now, you have officially carried it too far, Buddy.
This is because l don't have powers, isn't it?
Not every superhero has powers, you know.
You can be super without them.
l invented these. l can fly. Can you fly?
Fly home, Buddy. l work alone.
Just give me one chance! l'll show you. l'll go get the police.
- Buddy, don't! - lt'll only take a second, really.
No, stop! There's a bomb!
Let go, you're wrecking my flight pattern.
- l can do this if you let go! - Will you just...?
- l'm trying to help! Stop! - Let go of my cape!
[beeping]
[beeping speeds up]
[train whistle blows]
Take this one home. And make sure his mom knows what he's been doing.
l can help you. You're making a mist...
The injured jumper. You sent paramedics?
They picked him up.
The blast in that building was caused by Bomb Voyage
who l caught robbing the vault.
We might nab him if we set up a perimeter.
- He got away? - Well, yeah.
- Skippy here made sure of that. - lncrediBoy.
You're not affiliated with me! Holy smokes, l'm late.
Listen, l've gotta be somewhere.
- What about Bomb Voyage? - Any other night, l'd go after him,
but l really gotta go. Don't worry. We'll get him! Eventually!
[church organ music plays]
- ls the night still young? - You're very late.
- How do l look? Good? - The mask. You still got the mask.
[cracks neck]
Showtime.
Robert Parr, will you have this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?
You're late. When you asked if l was doing anything later,
l didn't realize you'd forgotten. l thought it was playful banter.
- lt was. - Cutting it close, don't you think?
You need to be more... flexible.
l love you, but if we're gonna make this work,
you've gotta be more than Mr. lncredible.
You know that. Don't you?
- ...so long as you both shall live? - l do.
l pronounce this couple husband and wife.
[people cheering and whistling]
As long as we both shall live. No matter what happens.
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, didnt 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.
Mr. Sansweet didn't ask to be saved. He didn't want to be saved.
The injury received from Mr. lncredible's ''actions'',
- causes him daily pain. - l saved your life!
You didn't save my life! You ruined my death.
[lawyer] My client has no comment.
[announcer] Another suit was filed by victims of the el train accident.
Incredibles court losses cost the government millions.
And opened the flood gates for dozens of superhero lawsuits the world over.
lt is time for their secret identity to become their only identity.
Time for them to join us, or go away.
[announcer] Under public pressure, and the financial burden
of an ever mounting series of lawsuits,
the government quietly initiated the superhero relocation program.
The supers were 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.
Denied? You're denying my claim?
l don't understand. l have full coverage.
l'm sorry, Mrs. Hogenson,
but our liability is spelled out in paragraph 1 7.
- lt states clearly... - [stammering] l can't pay for this.
Excuse me. Claims, Bob Parr.
l'm calling to celebrate a momentous occasion.
We're now officially moved in.
Yeah, well, that's great, honey.
The last three years don't count because...
Because l finally unpacked the last box. Now, it's official. Ha, ha, ha.
- [Helen] Why do we have so much junk? - Listen, l've got a client.
Say no more. Go save the world one policy at a time, honey.
Oh! l gotta go pick up the kids. See you tonight.
Bye, honey. Excuse me. Where were we?
[sobbing] l'm on a fixed income, and if you can't help me,
l don't know what l'll do.
[blows nose loudly]
[sobbing]
All right, listen closely. l'd like to help you, but l can't.
l'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 l can't.
l also do not advise you to fill out and file a WS2475 form
with our legal department on the second floor.
l wouldn't expect someone to get back to you quickly to resolve the matter.
l'd like to help, but there's nothing l can do.
- Oh, thank you, young man. - [shouting] Sorry. l know you're upset!
- [whispering] Pretend to be upset. - [sobbing]
Parr!
You authorized payment on the Walker policy!
Someone broke into their house, Mr. Huph.
- Their policy covers... - l don't wanna know about it.
Don't tell me about it. Tell me how you're keeping lnsuricare 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.
[over PA] Morning break is over. Morning break is over.
l appreciate you coming down here, Mrs. Parr.
What's this about? Has Dash done something wrong?
He's a disruptive influence and he openly mocks me in front of the class.
- He says. - Look, l know it's you!
- He puts thumbtacks on my stool. - You saw him do this?
Well... not really. No.
Actually, not.
Oh, then how do you know it was him?
l hid a camera. Yeah, and this time, l've got him.
See? You see?
You don't see it?
He moves! Right there!
Wait, wait! Right there!
Right as l'm sitting down!
l don't know how he does it,
but there's no tack before he moves
and after he moves, there's a tack. Coincidence? l think not!
- Bernie... - Don't ''Bernie'' me.
[screaming] This little rat is guilty!
You and your son can go now, Mrs. Parr. l'm sorry for the trouble.
You're letting him go again? He's guilty!
You can see it on his smug little face. Guilty, l say, guilty!
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.
Maybe l could, if you'd let me go out for sports.
Honey, you know why we can't do that.
l promise l'll slow up. l'll only be the best by a tiny bit.
Dashiell Robert Parr,
you are an incredibly competitive boy. And a bit of a showoff.
The last thing you need is temptation.
You always say, ''Do your best.'' But you don't really mean it.
Why can't l do the best that l can do?
Right now, honey, the world just wants us to fit in,
and to fit in, we just gotta be like everybody else.
Dad always said our powers were nothing to be ashamed of.
- Our powers made us special. - Everyone's special, Dash.
Which is another way of saying no one is.
[bell rings]
[boy] Rydinger, where you headed?
- [girl] Hi, Tony. - Hey.
- Hey, Tony, can l carry your books? - That's kind of funny.
Hey, Tony, do you play football?
[boy] Tony, l thought we were gonna go swimming.
He looked at me.
- [car horn honking] - [Dash] Come on, Violet!
[horns honking, people yelling]
[car rattling]
[groans]
[muttering] Darn kids. Sitting on the driveway...
Oh, great.
[unintelligible muttering]
[Helen and Jack-Jack cooing]
Mom.
- You're making weird faces again. - No, l'm not.
You make weird faces, honey.
- Do you have to read at the table? - Uh-huh. Yeah.
Smaller bites, Dash. Yikes!
Bob, could you help the carnivore cut his meat.
Dash, you have something you wanna tell your father about school?
- [nervously] Well, we dissected a frog. - Dash got sent to the office again.
- [distracted] Good. Good. - No, Bob, that's bad.
- What? - Dash got sent to the office again.
- What?! What for? - Nothing.
He put a tack on the teacher's chair... during class.
Nobody saw me. You could barely see it on the tape.
They caught you on tape and you still got away with it? Whoa!
You must have been booking. How fast were you going?
We are not encouraging this.
l'm not, l'm just asking how fast...
- Honey! - [crash]
Great. First the car, now l gotta pay to fix the table...
What happened to the car?
Here. l'm getting a new plate.
So, how about you, Vi? How was school?
- Nothing to report. - You've hardly touched your food.
- l'm not hungry for meatloaf. - Well, it is leftover night.
We have steak, pasta... What are you hungry for?
- Tony Rydinger. - Shut up.
- Well, you are. - l said, shut up, you little insect.
- Well, she is. - Do not shout at the table.
- Honey! - [Bob] Kids! Listen to your mother.
She'd eat if we were having Tony loaf.
That's it!
Stop it!
- [Dash] You're gonna be toast! - [Helen] Stop running in the house.
[Helen] Sit down!
- Hey, no force fields! - You started it.
You sit down! You sit down!
Violet!
- [shouting in background] - [Bob muttering]
''Simon J. Paladino,
longtime advocate of superhero rights, is missing''?
- Gazerbeam. - [Helen] Bob! lt's time to engage.
Do something! Don't just stand there!
- l need you to intervene! - You want me to intervene?
Okay. l'm intervening!
[all shouting]
Violet, let go of your brother.
[Jack-Jack] Hello?
[Bob] Get the door.
- Hey, Lucius! - Hey, Speedo. Helen, Vi, Jack-Jack.
- lce of you to drop by. - Ha! Never heard that one before.
- [gargling] Lucius! - [Lucius] Whoa!
- [Lucius] Ha, ha. - [Dash] Oh!
- l like it when it shatters. - l'll be back later.
- Where are you two going? - lt's Wednesday.
Bowling night. Say hello to Honey for me, Lucius.
Will do. Good night, Helen. Good night, kids.
Don't think you've avoided talking about the principal's office.
Your father and l are still gonna discuss it.
l'm not the only kid who's been sent to the office.
Other kids don't have superpowers.
- Now, it's perfectly normal... - What do you know about normal?
What does anyone in this family know about normal?
- Now, wait a minute, young lady. - We act normal. l wanna be normal.
The only normal one is Jack-Jack, and he's not even toilet trained.
- [Jack-Jack laughing] - [Dash] Lucky.
l meant about being normal.
[laughter]
[Lucius] So now l'm in deep trouble.
l mean, one more jolt of this death ray and l'm an epitaph.
Somehow l managed to find cover. What does Baron Von Ruthless do?
- He starts monologuing. - He starts monologuing.
He starts this prepared speech about how feeble l am compared to him.
How inevitable my defeat is, the world will soon be his. Yada, yada, yada.
- Yammering. - Yammering.
[Lucius] l mean, the guy has me on a platter, and he won't shut up.
- [radio] Municiberg, we have a 23-56... - 23-56, what is that?
- Robbery? - This is just sad.
- Want to catch a robber? - No.
Tell you the truth, l'd rather go bowling.
Look, what if we actually did what our wives think we're doing?
Just to shake things up.
[Mirage] He's not alone. The fat guy's still with him.
They're just talking.
- What are we doing here? - Protecting people.
- Nobody asked us. - You need an invitation?
l'd like one, yes. We keep sneaking out to do this, and...
- You remember Gazerbeam? - There was something in the paper.
- He had trouble with civilian life. - When did you see him?
l don't see anyone from the old days. Just you.
- And we're pushing our luck as it is. - Come on.
lt was fun the first time, but if we keep doing this...
- [radio] We have a report on a fire... - A fire. We're close!
- [yelling] Yeah, baby! - We're gonna get caught.
[hooting]
[Bob] Fire! Yeah!
- [Lucius] ls that everybody? - [Bob] Yeah.
- lt better be. - Can't you put this out?
l can't lay down a layer thick enough! lt's evaporating too fast!
- What's that mean? - lt means it's hot.
- l'm dehydrated, Bob. - You're out of ice?
You can't run out. You can use water in the air.
There is no water in this air! What's your excuse, run out of muscle?
l can't smash walls. The building's getting weaker.
- lt's gonna come down on top of us. - l wanted to go bowling!
All right! Stay right on my tail! This is gonna get hot!
[coughing, moaning]
[Bob] Yeah. [coughing]
Uh-oh.
Oh, good.
- [alarm sounds] - [Lucius groans]
That ain't right.
- We look like incompetent bad guys! - You can get water out of the air.
Freeze!
- l'm thirsty. - l said freeze!
l'm just getting a drink.
- You've had your drink. Now... - l know. l know. Freeze.
[police radio chatter]
Police officers!
[Lucius] That was way too close.
We are not doing that again.
[over radio] Verify you want to switch targets? Over.
Trust me. This is the one he's been looking for.
[keys jingling]
[humming]
- l thought you'd be back by 1 1 . - l said l'd be back later.
l assumed you'd be back later. lf you came back at all...
- ...you'd be ''back later''. - Well, l'm back, okay?
ls this rubble?
[with mouth full] lt was just a little workout. Just to stay loose.
You know how l feel about that. Darn you! We can't blow cover again.
- The building was coming down anyway. - What?
You knocked down a building?
lt was on fire. Structurally unsound. lt was coming down.
Have you been listening to the police scanner again?
l performed a public service. You act like that's a bad thing.
lt is a bad thing, Bob!
Uprooting our family again, so you can relive the glory days is a bad thing.
lt's better than acting like they didn't happen!
Yes! They happened! But this, our family,
is what's happening now, Bob. And you are missing this!
l can't believe you don't want to go to your own son's graduation.
lt's not a graduation. He's moving from fourth to fifth grade.
- lt's a ceremony! - lt's psychotic!
They keep creating new ways to celebrate mediocrity
but if someone is exceptional...
This is not about you, Bob. lt's about Dash.
You want to do something for Dash? Let him actually compete.
- Let him go out for sports! - l will not be made the enemy!
- You know why we can't do that. - Because he'd be great.
This is not about you!
All right, Dash. l know you're listening. Come on out.
Vi? You, too, young lady.
Come on. Come on out.
lt's okay, kids. We're just having a discussion.
[Vi] Pretty loud discussion.
But that's okay. What's important is that Mommy and l are a team.
- We're united, uh, against forces of... - Pigheadedness?
- l was gonna say evil. - We're sorry we woke you.
Everything's okay. Go back to bed. lt's late.
- Good night, Mom. Night, Dad. - Good night.
ln fact, we should all be in bed.
[sighs]
[crickets chirping, dog barks]
[on phone] Request claim on claim numbers 1 58 183...
[Huph] Havent you got him yet? Where is he?
[PA] Mr. Huph would like to talk to you in his office.
- Now? - Now.
[announcement on PA]
Sit down, Bob.
l'm not happy, Bob. Not happy.
- Ask me why. - Okay. Why?
Why what? Be specific, Bob.
Why are you unhappy?
Your customers make me unhappy.
What, you've gotten complaints?
Complaints l can handle.
What l 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!
- Did l do something illegal? - No.
- We shouldn't help our customers? - The law requires that l answer no.
- We're supposed to help people. - [yelling] Help our people!
Starting with our stockholders.
Who's helping them out, huh?
[Huph] You know, Bob, a company...
ls like an enormous clock.
...is like an enormous... Yes. Precisely.
[Huph] lt 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] l'm being metaphorical, Bob. Know what l mean by cooperative cogs?
Bob?
Bob? Look at me when l'm talking to you, Parr.
- That man out there, he needs help. - Don't change the subject.
- We're discussing your attitude. - He is getting mugged!
- Well, let's hope we don't cover him. - l'll be right back.
Stop right now or you're fired!
Close the door.
Get over here, now.
l'm not happy, Bob. Not happy.
- He got away. - Good thing, too.
You were this close to losing your...
[moaning]
Uh-oh.
[over PA] Please report to operating room 7 22 immediately.
- How is he? - He'll live.
- l'm fired, aren't l? - You think?
- What can l say, Rick? - Nothing you haven't said before.
- Someone was in trouble. - Always.
- l had to do something. - Every time you say that,
it's a month and a half of trouble for me.
Hundreds of thousands of taxpayer's dollars.
- l know. - We pay to keep the company quiet.
We pay damages, erase memories, relocate your family.
Every time it gets harder. Money, money, money.
We can't keep doing this. We appreciate what you did in the old days,
but those days are over. From now on, you're on your own.
Listen, Bob. Maybe l could relocate you, you know, for old times' sake.
l can't do that to my family. Everyone just got settled.
l'll make it work. Thanks.
Take care of yourself.
[Bob] What are you waiting for?
l don't know. Something amazing, l guess.
[sighs] Me, too, kid.
[sighs]
[door swings shut]
[groans]
Huh?
''Hold still''?
[computer] Match: Mr. Incredible.
Room is secure. Commence message.
[Mirage] Hello, Mr. Incredible. Yes, we know who you are.
Rest assured, your secret is safe with us.
My name is Mirage. We have something in common.
According to the government, neither of us exist.
Please pay attention, as this message is classified and will not be repeated.
I represent a top secret division of the government,
designing and testing experimental technology,
and we have need of your unique abilities.
Something happened at our testing facility.
- [Helen] Honey! - Huh? What?
- [Helen] Dinner's ready. - Okay.
...it is contained within an isolated area,
it threatens to cause incalculable damage to itself and our facilities,
jeopardizing hundreds of millions of dollars...
[Helen] ls someone in there?
- lt's the TV, trying to watch. - Because of its sensitive nature...
- [Helen] Stop. lt's time for dinner. - One minute!
If you accept, your payment will be triple your current annual salary.
Call the number on the card. Voice-matching will ensure security.
The supers arent gone, Mr. Incredible. Youre still here.
You can still do great things. Or...
...you can listen to police scanners. Your choice.
You have 2 4 hours to respond.
Think about it.
[beeping]
[computer] This message will self-destruct.
Uh-oh.
[muffled explosion, coughing]
[fire alarm beeping]
[family shouting in another room]
You are one distracted guy.
Am l? l don't mean to be.
l know you miss being a hero and your job is frustrating.
l just want you to know how much it means to me that you stay at it anyway.
- Honey? About the job? - What?
- Something's happened. - What?
- The, uh... - What?
The company is sending me to, uh, a conference.
- A conference? - [stammering] Out of town.
l'm gonna be gone for a few days.
They've never sent you to a conference before. This is good, isn't it?
[hesitating] Yes.
You see? They're finally recognizing your talents.
- You're moving up. - Yes.
- Honey! This is wonderful! - Yes, it is.
[phone ringing]
[over phone] Hello?
This is Mr. lncredible.
l'm in.
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...
Let me guess. lt got smart enough to wonder why it had to take orders.
We lost control. Now it's loose in the jungle, threatening our facility.
We've had to evacuate all personnel from the island for their own safety.
How am l going in?
The Omnidroid's defenses necessitate an air drop from 5000 feet.
lts cloaking devices make it difficult to track.
We're pretty sure it's on the southern half of the island.
One more thing. Obviously it represents a significant investment.
You want me to shut it down without destroying it.
You are Mr. lncredible.
l've got to warn you, it's a learning robot.
Every moment you fight it increases its knowledge of how to beat you.
Shut it down. Do it quickly. Don't destroy it.
- And don't die. - Great. Thanks.
[grunting]
Showtime.
[bird and insect noises]
[panting heavily, sighing]
[fly buzzing]
Huh?
- Hmm. - [loud crash]
[cries out in pain]
[satisfied grunt]
Uh-oh.
[screaming with effort]
[laughing, loud crack]
Oh, my back!
- [loud crack] - Oh!
Surprising. We must bring him back.
Sound the all clear, and invite him to dinner.
[Syndrome, barely audible] Most important, keep things light.
Praise him. Make him feel like we appreciate his abilities.
Am l overdressed?
Actually, you look rather dashing.
- [Bob] l take it our host is... - [Mirage] l'm sorry.
He won't be dining with us. He hopes you'll understand.
Of course. l do usually make it a point to know who l'm working for.
He prefers a certain amount of anonymity.
Surely, you of all people understand that.
l was just wondering, of all the places to settle down, why live...
With a volcano? He's attracted to power. So am l.
- lt's a weakness we share. - Seems a bit unstable.
l prefer to think of it as misunderstood.
[chuckling] Aren't we all?
Volcanic soil is among the most fertile on Earth.
Everything at the table was grown right here.
- How does it compare? - Everything's delicious.
- Jeez. - [Helen] Hurry, honey.
Or you'll be late for work.
- Have a great day, honey. - Thanks.
- Help customers, climb ladders... - Bring bacon.
All that jazz.
[laughing]
You have an appointment?
l'm an old friend. l just wanted to...
- All visitors are required... - [E] Go check the electric fence.
What is it? Who are you? What do you want?
My God, youve gotten fat. Come in. Come, come.
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.
Weren't you in the news? Some show in Prayge... Prague?
Milan, darling. Milan.
[E] Supermodels. Nothing super about them.
Spoiled, stupid, little stick figures
with poofy lips who think only about themselves.
Feh! l used to design for gods.
But perhaps you come with a challenge, eh? l was surprised to get your call.
E, l just need a patch job.
Hmm. This is megamesh. Outmoded, but very sturdy.
And you've torn right through it! What have you been doing, Robert?
Moonlighting hero work?
Must have happened a long time ago.
l see. This is a hobo suit, darling.
You can't be seen in this. l won't allow it!
- Fifteen years ago, maybe, but now? - What do you mean? You designed it.
l never look back, darling. lt distracts from the now.
You need a new suit. That much is certain.
A new suit? Where the heck am l gonna get a new suit?
You can't! lt's impossible! l'm far too busy.
So ask me now, before l again become sane.
Wait. You want to make me a suit?
You push too hard, darling! But l accept.
- [E] lt will be bold. Dramatic! - Yeah.
- Heroic! - Yeah, something classic, like Dynaguy!
Oh! He had a great look! Oh, the cape and the boots...
[E] No capes!
- lsn't that my decision? - Do you remember Thunderhead?
[E] Tall, storm powers. Nice man. Good with kids.
- Listen, E... - November 1 5th of '58.
[E] All was well, another day saved when his cape snagged on a missile fin.
Thunderhead was not the brightest bulb...
Stratogale!
[E] April 23rd, 57. Cape caught in a jet turbine.
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.
You know l'm retired from hero work.
As am l, Robert. Yet, here we are.
E, l only need a patch job. For sentimental reasons.
[sighs] Fine. l will also fix the hobo suit.
- You're the best of the best, E. - Yes, l know, darling. l know.
[phone rings]
[Bob] Don't answer it, honey, l got it!
- Hello? - We have a new assignment for you.
- [Mirage] How soon can you get here? - [Bob] Ill leave tomorrow morning.
- [Mirage] See you there. - Goodbye.
Who was that, honey? The, uh, office?
Another conference. Short notice, but you know...
...duty calls. [nervous laugh]
- [Helen] Bob? - Yeah, what's up, honey?
- Ha... have a great trip. - Thanks, sweetie.
- l'll call you when l get there. - l love you.
- So much. - l love you too.
[ship's computer] This is your automated Captain.
Would you care for more mimosa?
- [Bob] Don't mind if l do. Thanks. - Youre welcome.
Currently 78 degrees in Nomanisan. Perfect weather for flying.
Please fasten your seat belt. Were beginning our descent.
[Mirage] Hello, Mr. lncredible. Nice suit.
Thanks.
Nice to be back, Mirage.
You'll be briefed on your assignment in the conference room at two.
- D Wing, room A-1 1 3. - 2:00. Got it.
See you there.
[gasps] Edna.
- l'd like to speak to Edna, please. - [E] This is Edna.
- E? This is Helen. - Helen who?
Helen Parr? You know...
Elastigirl?
Darling! Its been such a long time after all these years! So long!
[stammering] lt's been a while.
There's only one person Bob would trust to patch his supersuit. That's you.
Yes, yes, yes. Marvelous, isn't it?
Much better than those horrible pajamas he used to wear.
They are finished. When are you coming to see?
- [Helen] Im calling about... - Don't make me beg.
- l won't do it, you know. - Beg, no, l'm calling about suit.
[stammering] Bob's suit! l'm calling about Bob's suit.
You come in one hour, darling. l insist, okay? Okay. Goodbye.
Hmm.
[creaking]
[Syndrome] lt's bigger!
lt's badder!
Ladies and gentlemen, it's too much for Mr. lncredible!
lt's finally ready.
You know, l 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, l had to make some major modifications.
Sure it was difficult, but you are worth it.
l mean, after all, l am your biggest fan.
- Buddy? - My name is not Buddy!
And it's not lncrediBoy either!
That ship has sailed. All l wanted was to help you.
l only wanted to help! And what did you say to me?
Fly home, Buddy. l work alone.
[Syndrome] lt tore me apart. But l learned an important lesson.
You can't count on anyone.
Especially your heroes.
l was wrong to treat you that way. l'm sorry.
See? Now you respect me, because l'm a threat.
That's the way it works.
There's a lot of people, whole countries who want respect.
And they will pay through the nose to get it.
How do you think l got rich? l invented weapons.
Now l have a weapon only l can defeat. And when l unleash it, l'll get...
[laughing] You sly dog! You got me monologuing.
l can't believe it.
lt's cool, huh? Zero-point energy.
l save the best inventions for myself.
Am l good enough now?
Who's super now?
l'm Syndrome! Your nemesis and...
Oh, brilliant!
[coughing]
All right, try this one on for size, big boy.
[groaning, sputtering]
Gazerbeam.
[Bob] ''Kronos?''
[scanner] Life reading negative. Mr. Incredible terminated.
[E] This project has completely confiscated my life, darling.
Consumed me as only hero work can. My best work, l must admit.
Simple, elegant, yet bold. You will die.
- E, l just... - l did Robert's suit,
and it turned out so beautiful, l had to continue.
lt's great to see you, but l have no idea what you're talking about.
- l just... - Yes, words are useless.
Gobble, gobble, gobble. Too much of it, darling. Too much!
That is why l show you my work.
That is why you are here.
Edna Mode.
And guest.
Come. Sit.
- Cream and sugar? - Thanks.
- l started with the baby. - Started?
[E] Shh! Darling! l cut it a little roomy for the free movement.
The fabric is comfortable for sensitive skin,
[E] and can also withstand a temperature of over 1 000 degrees.
Completely bulletproof.
And machine washable, darling. That's a new feature.
What on earth do you think the baby will be doing?
Well, l'm sure l don't know, darling. Luck favors the prepared.
l didn't know the baby's powers, so l covered the basics.
- Jack-Jack doesn't have any powers. - No?
Well, he'll look fabulous anyway.
Your boy's suit l designed to withstand enormous friction
without heating up or wearing out. A useful feature.
Your daughter's suit was tricky.
l finally created a sturdy material that will disappear completely as she does.
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?
What do l think? Bob is retired! l'm retired!
Our family is underground.
You helped my husband resume secret hero work behind my back?
Well, l assumed you knew, darling.
Why would he keep secrets from you?
He wouldn't. Didn't. Doesn't.
Men at Robert's age are often unstable.
Prone to weakness.
- What are you saying? - Do you know where he is?
- Of course. - Do you know where he is?
[voices, static on radio]
[electric fizzling]
[grunt]
[voice on radio]
- [guard] Hey, hey. We got a man down! - [guard 2] Come on, let's go.
[guard 2] Are you okay? What happened?
[over radio] Break surveillance and engage. Continuing sweep...
- [over phone] Insuricare. - Oh, hello. This is Helen Parr.
Bob Parr is my husband. l was wondering if you could give me
the number of the hotel he's staying at? The number l have is no good.
- Mr. Parr no longer works here. - What do you mean?
He's on a business trip. A company retreat.
My records say he was terminated almost two months ago.
[gasps]
So, you don't know where he is.
Would you like to find out?
[relieved sigh]
[beeping]
[sobbing] l am such an idiot.
l let this happen, you know.
The new sports car, the getting in shape, the blond hair, the lies.
Yes, he attempts to relive the past.
Now l'm losing him! What'll l do? What'll l do?
What are you talking about?
You are Elastigirl! My God! Pull yourself together.
What will you do? ls this a question?
Show him you remember that he is Mr. lncredible,
and you will remind him who you are!
Well, you know where he is. Go! Confront the problem! Fight! Win!
And call me when you get back, darling. l enjoy our visits.
There's lots of leftovers that you can reheat.
Make sure Dash does his homework. And both of you, get to bed on time.
l should be back tonight. Late.
You can be in charge that long, can't you?
Yeah. But why am l in charge again?
Nothing. Just a little trouble with Daddy.
You mean Dad's in trouble, or Dad is the trouble?
l mean either he's in trouble, or he's going to be.
What's that? Where'd you get that, Mom?
You made a cool outfit? Hey, are those for us?
We all get cool outfits?
- Dash! You come back here this moment! - [phone rings]
Hey, Snug. Thanks for getting back.
l know this is short notice, but l was hoping that l could...
- What are these? - Look, l'm The Dash!
- The Dash likes. - [Helen] Just a second.
- Take that off before somebody sees. - You're packing one just like it.
- Are you hiding something? - Please. l'm on the phone...
- Dash! - This is yours. lt's specially made.
- What's going on? - You're not coming! l gotta pack!
What makes you think it's special?
l don't know. Why'd Mom try to hide it?
Snug, l'm calling in a solid you owe me.
- [over phone] What do you need? - A jet. What do you got that's fast?
Let me think.
lsland approach. lndia Golf niner-niner checking in.
- VFR on top. Over. - [radio static]
