WOMAN: Previously on The Villains of Valley View.

I kind of spilled on your console

and then everything sparked.

And then I start pressing more buttons

and then he turned into that.

I want him back home plotting revenge against Starling.

Were you just talking to who I think you were talking to?

Starling. I need you to cover for me with Amy.

Jake, get out of the way.

No, Amy, this has gone way too far.

[screams]

-Amy! -We may share the same villain blood

but you're not my brother anymore.

I never wanted a best friend in the first place

and now I know why.

How do we fix this?

I don't know if we can.

[rock music playing]

Come on, Amy, could we please just talk about this?

AMY: [screams]

I'll take that as a no.

Hey, Amy.

I made a new batch

of sorry-for-being-a-bad-friend cookies.

She's upstairs.

You're still baking things to smooth things over with her?

Yeah. Do you think it's working?

As a way to get back on a good side?

No.

As target practice?

Yes.

Where's the target?

I was the target.

She almost knocked me out with one of your cinnamon buns.

Amy hasn't talked to me in days.

I'm starting to think that when she said

I'm not her brother anymore, she really meant it.

I just hate being on the outs with her.

Me too.

I mean, sure we constantly lob insults at each other,

but for us, those are like hugs.

You know, none of this would have happened

if you would've just told her

you were hanging out with Starling,

her biggest nemesis.

Well, you didn't tell her either.

You told me not to.

Well, that's your fault for listening to me.

That's two mistakes in a row.

Amy, my bestest, goodest friend.

It's a beautiful day to forgive and forget.

Save it, I just came down to get a cookie.

Oh, well, I just happen to have one.

A store-bought cookie.

I feel horrible.

I swear I was only keeping Jake's secret

to protect him and your family.

And I should've told you I was talking with Starling

from the beginning.

I know you're hurt, but that was never my intention.

-Ow. -Oh, did that hurt?

-Yes. -I'm sorry, that was never my intention.

I know you're mad, but I do appreciate

you not telling mom and dad about everything.

Why would I?

I'm actually loyal to my brother.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I'm gonna go get a cookie and hang out with the brother

who didn't betray me even if he is an old man.

Anyone seen my adult diaper?

Then again, there's nothing like alone time.

Okay. This has gone on long enough

and the only way I'm gonna get Amy back

is to prove that I'm loyal to her.

Well, that's good for you.

But what am I supposed to do?

I'd say keep baking.

Looks like you found a fan.

Mmm. Floor cookies.

Oh, I hope that was a chocolate chip.

[theme music playing]

[rock music playing]

Oh, here she comes. I guarantee this

will get me back on Amy's good side.

Yeah, she's gonna love this.

You really think so?

No, I just say positive things

and hope they work out.

Ta-da! Your very own double-sized locker,

courtesy of your brother.

What about the kid who was using it?

Oh, I'm his locker now.

I just have to carry all of his stuff on my back

and follow him around all of his classes

and pay him $200 by the end of the day.

But it's worth it to make it up to you,

my one and only sister.

So, what do you say? All forgiven?

No, I already own that locker and that kid was paying me rent,

so now I'm losing income.

I'm not giving up.

I just have to go bigger.

Amy, I know he messed up,

but this has to be hurting you too.

You can't hold on to this grudge forever.

Maybe not forever, but 50 years feels doable.

Look...

What happened with Jake and Starling is in the past

and sometimes you have to forgive

in order to move forward.

Starling isn't even the worst part.

When we were Havoc and Chaos, we were inseparable.

We didn't keep anything from each other.

So how am I supposed to forgive him

for keeping a secret like that from me?

He wasn't alone.

We both kept it a secret and I'm really, really sorry.

I know you are.

You got a living room full of crumbs to prove it.

I guess I shouldn't have been so hard on you.

You were in a tough situation.

It was Jake who really messed up.

So does that mean we're good? [chuckling]

Yeah, we're good.

Plus, this way I can channel all my anger towards Jake.

You get a more intense rage rush

when you don't have to split your focus.

Amy, he made a mistake.

Everybody makes mistakes.

I mean, you've made tons of them.

There's the blackmail thing,

the mentor thing, the whole sending me

to another dimension thing, and then you--

No, you do know I can still un-forgive you, right?

The point is Jake was offering an olive branch.

Maybe the next time he offers one,

you should take it.

I'll think about it.

Yeah. I got further than I thought I would.

[whirring]

Okay. I am this close to getting our Colby back.

You've been saying you're this close for weeks.

You're running out of daylight there, chief.

Eva, I am but one man,

the strapping intellectually magnificent man,

but one man nonetheless.

Yeah, get off his back, Mom.

I just miss my little Colbs

with his cute little boy stink

and its ability to choose solid foods.

I don't think I can blend him another meal.

This turkey burger is delicious, Mom.

Look, fixing broken shapeshifters

is new territory for me,

so if I'm taking longer than usual,

it's just because I don't wanna get it wrong,

again.

Don't worry, we know you'll bring our boy back.

Right, Colbs?

Oh, great, he's nodded off again.

Okay. Come on, buddy.

Napping on a full stomach

is gonna bring on the old mantudes.

Colby?

Oh, Colb, baby.

Oh. I fixed him.

All that work and all it took was a firm wiggle.

Yes, I'm me again.

They're not saggy anymore.

Our boy is back, finally.

No more having to pretend I'm this close to fixing him.

I mean, yay, I don't have to do any more work.

And I spoke too soon.

[whirring]

Surprise!

[chuckles] Hartley, I already forgave you.

You didn't need to bake me a cake.

Oh, I baked it to celebrate our reconciliation,

plus, the strawberries were expiring.

Aw. Nothing says we're friends again like moldy fruit.

I know I'm new here but are flying bus benches

a Texas thing?

Who did this?

I did.

Who's ready for a little chaos?

It doesn't work as well without the villain suit,

but you get the idea.

Jake, what is going on?

And what do you have against public transportation?

You said that I wasn't loyal and then I realized

there was nothing Jake could do to prove you wrong,

so I went back to someone you know is loyal.

Chaos.

Jake, do you really think that Amy's gonna forgive you

just because you're acting like a villain?

Of course, I am.

Wait, what?

Well, you're the one who told me

to accept my brother's olive branch

and this is some branch.

I mean, I could build a tree house

on this thing.

You're gonna build a tree house on this bench?

No, on the branch.

-What branch? -The olive branch.

It's your metaphor, Hartley, keep up.

It's good to have you back, bro.

It's good to be back, sis.

Amy, Jake has come a long way

from being a villain.

Are you really just gonna let him

throw that all away just to go forgive him?

Yes. I've been trying to get him

to throw that all away for months.

Besides, I didn't tell him to be a villain, he offered.

A good person would do everything he can

to get his sister back

even if it means going to extremes.

Oh, yeah. Enough chitchat.

It's time to wreak some havoc.

Huh. You see what I did there?

If you two go on a rampage,

you're gonna risk getting your entire family caught.

Hartley, we've been villains for a long time.

I think we know how not to get caught.

Besides, what are they gonna do?

Arrest us for throwing a bench?

I also threw a bus.

He's back.

So why am I doing this?

Your father thinks that performing a fun useful activity

will keep you from shifting back into old Colby.

-Oh! -[thuds]

Well, it was just a theory.

All this quick shapeshifting between young and old

is weakening your molecular structure.

This device measures just how stable you are.

Where is it at now?

On a scale from one to ten,

you're down to five and a half Vics.

I named the measurement after myself since no one's

ever made a molecular instability scale before.

Oh, wow. I'm glad you still found time

to pat yourself on the back there.

Comments like that are why I named

the most unstable measurements Evas.

What happens when the meter drops into the Evas?

Oh, nothing too crazy. Just that your body

could start to wither away and we could lose you for good.

How's that not crazy?

Well, if you dropped too low,

you'll just disappear in a little blue flame.

Let's hope for the best.

[rock music playing]

Dude, that was awesome.

I can't believe you used your super strengths

to twist that lamp post into a balloon animal.

Me? What about you unleashing a sonic boom at the roller rink?

I've never seen a 22-person pileup before.

Yeah.

Oh, it was a mountain of twisted limbs

and spinning wheels.

Look at us.

To Havoc and Chaos just like old times.

You ready to knock out the power to the city

so we can have some real fun?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, I guess so.

What's wrong?

You're not having second thoughts, are you?

No. No. I told you I'm back to being my villain self.

And if that's what you wanna do, then that's what we're gonna do.

Is that what you wanna do?

Yeah. Totally.

Let's rip these bolts out and knock this baby down.

Okay. Lefty-loosey, righty-tighty, Jakey breaky.

Stop.

Please!

I've been chasing you for the past four hours!

I know. That's why we ran so fast.

You two are out of control.

And your reckless behavior

could end up seriously hurting someone.

Oh, relax. We're just having a little fun.

Well, I'm not just gonna let you ruin our town

just so you can have your villain kicks.

You shouldn't have to change who you are

to have her forgive you.

And if you're only forgiving somebody

because of what they're doing for you,

that's not really forgiveness.

Fine.

Jake, I hate to say this but Hartley's right.

You don't have to do this.

Oh, phew!

I'm so happy you said that because I do not wanna do this.

Great. Let's go.

Hartley, no!

-[electricity zaps] -[thuds]

You couldn't wait until after I put it down?

The whole city is losing power.

Should we run?

No. That's an amateur move.

Let's calm down,

walk away slowly, and whistle.

No one suspects a whistle.

[all whistling]

[rock music playing]

-[beeps] -This is it.

Time to save our son and not a moment too soon.

We don't have much time left.

What? You said I had hours.

Well, I didn't want you to get all panicky.

[beeps]

Am I back?

Yup!

Nope.

[grunts] How long will this take?

I'm not sure. But the machine is working.

Just has to power up to run its full course.

Shouldn't be too long.

Okay. You know what, from now on,

I'm just gonna stop making predictions.

[rock music playing]

Well, the emergency lights have kicked on.

But there's not enough juice to power the Re-Atomizer.

I just knew I should've hooked that generator up to my bicycle.

I'd have reserve power and firmer glutes.

Let me give it a try.

Stop! Stop!

You're overpowering it.

Y-Your voltage is too powerful.

Well, my name is such.

We need a steady regulated source

from a stable electricity grid.

I don't know why we kept trying to take

those things down when we were villains.

They're pretty useful.

That was close.

-Did anyone see us? -Of course not.

I told you we're good at not getting caught.

Oh, hello.

I'm guessing something went wrong.

-No. -What makes you say that?

We knocked out a power tower.

[gasps]

-What? -It was an accident.

I have been working on this machine for hours

so I could bring Colby back to normal

and you just killed our power.

If we don't fix him soon,

we will lose him for good.

[groans]

Oh, he's getting worse.

He's down to two Evas.

See, I named the good units after me

and the bad units after--

Not the time.

Now do you see why you can't let Jake be a villain?

Why is this on me? He started it.

I wouldn't have had to do it if you had just forgiven me.

Forgiven you for what?

-Nothing. -Never mind.

The important thing here is Colby.

Don't worry, Dad. We'll go fix it.

Just hurry up!

If the unstable molecules don't get me,

my arthritis will.

Power crew.

They'll never be able to fix the lines in time to save Colby.

Okay. We'll have to create a distraction

so they can clear out and we can get to work.

Lucky for you, your sister is a human soundboard.

[explosion]

Sounds like another transformer just blew over there.

Okay. Come on. I have an idea.

You lift the tower back up,

I'll use my sonic propulsion to go up

and reconnect the busted wires

with my ultrasonic vibrations.

Got it.

Okay. Here it goes.

[whooshing]

[triumphant music playing]

[grunting]

[humming]

I can't fuse the wires together!

[humming continues]

My ultrasonic vibration isn't working!

[tense music playing]

Man, all this changing back and forth

is really knocking me out.

I'm not as young as I used to be.

Wait. Yes, I am.

No, I'm not.

The speed of his shapeshifting is progressing too fast.

Oh, Hartley, he's down to one Eva.

What does that mean?

It means we're losing him.

The poor little guy is burning up.

Eva, can you bring him some water?

Eva?

Oh, you're still not mad about that whole measurement thing,

are you, darling?

[humming]

It's not working. What do we do?

Mom?

What are you doing here?

Well, I couldn't let you do this kind of job

without the family electrician.

Doesn't work as well without the villain suit

but you get the idea.

Okay. Hold the wires together. I'm gonna zap them.

[electric zapping]

Yes. The power is back on.

-Mom, you fixed it. -Yeah, of course I did.

I've been cleaning up your messes since you were four.

Wait, don't you mean you've been cleaning up

our messes since we were born?

Made your father do the heavy lifting early on.

[gasps] They did it! The power is back on!

Oh, he's getting woozy. I need a hand.

How many floor cookies did you eat?

We got back as fast as we could.

You should be good to go.

Okay. Here it goes.

Goggle up, people.

You got this?

[tense music playing]

[whirring]

Say something, Colby.

S-Something Colby.

He's up to 10 Vics.

Our boy is back!

[cheering]

[stutters] Whatever this is, I don't like it.

That was close.

What in the world were you two thinking?

I never thought I'd say this to you

but you are both grounded for two days.

Sounds about right.

Although, it does mean that they'll be in the house

-with us the entire time. -Two hours.

You're grounded for two hours.

Unbelievable.

My grandma grounded me for a week

just for leaving the window open with the heat on.

Mm. It's one of the perks of having villains for parents.

They have no idea how to do it.

I gotta go.

I was supposed to meet my grandma

for dinner 11 hours ago.

Wait, Amy.

I know today turned into a mess but...

it was good to hang out with you like that again.

I miss that.

Me too.

Look, I... I did not like what happened with Starling

and I will probably never understand it,

but the fact that you went against

everything you stand for and turned into Chaos

even for one day,

it shows me you'll always be loyal to me.

It also shows that the city of Valley View

should really have a backup power grid.

[both chuckles]

Just don't hide stuff from me again.

I'm a big girl.

I can handle the truth.

I may not always like it but I can handle it.

In that case, I have to tell you something.

What I felt for Starling was real.

It was the first time I've ever felt like that for anyone.

And as much as I know, it makes you happy

that Starling ended it,

I'm still pretty crushed

that I'm never gonna see her again.

Yeah, that might be a little too much truth.

Fair enough. Come on.

Now that we have our little brother back,

we have a lot of teasing to make up for.

Yeah. I kind of felt bad making fun of him as an old man.

But now that he's an innocent child again,

he is fair game.

[upbeat music playing]

I'm so glad that you and I are cool again.

Me too. But you know

what would make things between us even cooler?

-What? -You doing all my homework.

[sighs] Yup. Things are back to normal.

Oh, wow. What a gentleman.

-Thank you. -No problem.

It's the least I can do for my new locker mate.

Oh. Well, welcome to the lockerhood.

I'm Hartley.

Declan. Nice to meet you.

Is today your first day?

Yeah. I got so lost earlier,

I ended up in the janitor's closet.

He was in there.

It was awkward.

[school bell rings]

Uh, you know, if you want,

I'd be more than happy to give you

-a quick tour after school. -That'd be great.

Great. Meet you here?

Sounds good. Just don't keep me waiting too long.

Although for you, I'd wait all day.

Oh. [chuckles] Well then, maybe I will make you wait.

But I really won't.

I'd probably be here early.

Maybe not early but definitely not late.

I gotta go.

This is Oculan through Onyx.

I investigated the electrical anomaly.

It's clear Havoc and her family are here in Valley View.

Now I just need to identify them.

MAN: Yes, Oculan.

Proceed slowly.

Gain their trust and work your way in.

Then we'll strike when they least expect it.

Trust me.

I'll find them soon.

And they'll never see it coming.

[suspenseful music playing]
