Well, technically, my building. The point is, someone is here. Someone who knew how to get into the mainframe and hack the system. Mom? Open the door. She's fine, Monica, but the locks to my office have been remotely engaged. Bertie, are you okay? I'll be fine as long as Doctor Doom and the Wicked Witch of the West stay on the other side of the room. How do you not...

things at this child, Monica? If you go near my kid, Angelica, I swear to you, you will see a side of me you never knew existed. Touch it. Mom, I want to go home. So do I, sweetie. But I need to find your brother and Brynley. While you're at it, maybe see about turning the power back on. I'll do my best. You're gonna be okay bird? Yeah, if either of them tries anything Right. I'll be back as soon as I can.

I hope she doesn't run into our visitors. Indeed. If it's who I think it is, none of us is safe. Power's out. Ivan's taking a nice nap. I even knocked out all the cell service. Welcome to the dark ages. I locked all the exterior doors. No one's getting out. Same with the door to Dr. Whittier's office. He's trying.

This is pretty rad. I'm like an honorary member of the four. Wish I could see Dr. Rudio's face when Adam and Cam find him. He's gonna wish they're still at the bottom of the ocean. Huh? Long story. How is that phone ringing? Wired? Wow. A landline. It really is the Dark Ages. What do we do? Pick it up? Uh... Hello? Huh? What are they saying? Can't hear. Something about gators? Gators? Whoever you are, did you say there are gators in the building?

Casey, what is it? Why'd you drop the phone? It... It's Cyrus. He's here. What? He's here in the building, stuck in an elevator. But Badger said they were home. Yeah. They're not. He's right here. And he needs us. Let's go. Casey, wait. What if it's a trap? Holiday, I conduct electricity and you can do anything. If it's a trap, we'll handle it. It's Cyrus! Yeah, I know. What is wrong with you? What are we waiting for? I told you. I'm not ready to see my family. You can go.

I can't come with you. Cyrus isn't just your family, Holiday. He's... He's the other half of you. You guys are the teamiest of teams. We were. Yeah. But I haven't seen him or the rest of the fam since they found out who I am. What I am. I'm sure they love you no matter what. Then why are they here? In this building? monsters create an army of machines just like me. You don't... They wouldn't. I don't know why they're here, but if we can just find Cyrus. I can't, Casey. Well, I'm going, so...

What? What should I tell Cyrus when I see him? About you. I guess... Okay? And that I'm happy? Good night. I want them all to be happy too. If you say so. Bye, Casey. Bye, Taco Tuesday. Really? Taco Tuesday? What? It's an emotional moment and I couldn't think of any more real holidays. See ya, mutant. See ya, Bart. Hello? Whoever you are, did you hear me?

Well, what did they say? Nothing. What do you mean, nothing? I clearly heard you say it's Cyrus and Brintley. We're trapped in an elevator. There was some static, maybe a voice, but the line went dead. So that's it? We're stuck? For now. I'll- I'll think of something. Hello? Is anyone out there? Brinley, I don't think. I'm stuck in the elevator with my evil landlord who's trying to evict me when I have no place to go. Someone help! Evil landlord? I am not trying to evict you. You don't pay rent.

Then why did I hear Birdie say you found a way to get me out of the house? When did Birdie say that? Like ten minutes ago in the lab. And how is Birdie... ANY INFORMA- Wait Why are you laughing like that? Are we losing oxygen? Is there not enough getting to your brain? For one of us, I guess. Man, do you know how to find a twist in a story? Brinley, I wasn't trying to evict you.

to hire a fossil fuel expert for the project she's working on. What does that have to do with me? Nothing! And everything! to do with your dad. My dad? Yeah, I was trying to get him a job at Whittier Corp so he could come back home for good and you could have your life back. Dummy. You You were trying to bring my dad home? And if you'd stop being so... Brinley, maybe, just maybe, we wouldn't be trapped in this small, dark elevator. And is it me or all the walls starting... I...

Cyrus, I mean, you and the- After everything, I'm just... Keep working on that sentence. I'm gonna try and find a way out of here. Cyrus Anders. What? You might want to turn around. Because I think I want to kiss you right now. You do? Uh-huh. Unless you... No, no, I'm... Hey, Sci-Fi. Did somebody call for him again? Brinley? Casey? Casey? Uh... Surprise!
