wondering when I'd run into you.
Gym teacher?
That's your cover? Really?
You're coming down in the
world since the last school.
Barnes:
The whole vice principalthing really cramped my style.
I could only yell at the kids.
Here I can get a

[Laughter]
Ken:
You really are theking of the jerk wads.
Troy:

Duncan:

Troy:

Yeah!
Whoo!
How'd he do that?
Troy:
[Growls]What?
[Ball bouncing]
Duncan:
[Laughs]Barnes:
Troy, catch withyour hands, not your face.
[Laughter]
Ken:
I didn't ask youto do that, you know.
Duncan:
I know.Ken:
Didn't need you to save me.Duncan:
I didn't.I just got sick of hearing
the dillweeds crow.
Ken:
Well, that was fairly cool.Actually, you could take that show
on the road and sell tickets.
Duncan:
No big deal.[Bones crack]
Troy:
Get lost, trailer park.[Laughter]
Ken:
Uh, it's a freecountry, amigo.
Duncan:
It's okay, Kenny.Go.
Troy:
[Chuckles]You know what happens now?
Duncan:
Well, traditionally,this is where I hand you your
meat, all nice and on a slab.
[Laughs]
Duncan:
But I pretty much promised mymom I wouldn't fight, so... Later!
Hey!
Get him!
What is he doing?
Troy:
[Growls]Duncan:
Hey, blitz.[Laughs]
[Laughs]
Troy:
[Growls]Ugh!

[Girl screams]
Troy:

[Laughs]Troy:
Come on!You all right?
Duncan:
[Exhales sharply]Troy:
[Breathing heavily]Duncan:
[Breathing heavily]You don't want to fight me.
Troy:
Don't worry.It's not going to be a
fight, just a beatdown.
Duncan:
Leave me alone!Troy:
Oh, forget this.Duncan:
[Breathing heavily][Gasps]
Ugh!
Barnes:
Holy hello, kid.Way to keep a low profile.
Troy:
Dude breathed fire, man.W-what is he?
Barnes:
Get to class now,or you're expelled.
Duncan:
It's not my fault!It just happened!
Barnes:
Later, kid.Duncan:
If Troy's hurt,he was asking for it.
Barnes:
Don't worry about it.I was going to
bench him, anyway.
He runs fine, but he couldn't
hold onto a ball with a handle.
[Keypad beeps]
[Energy pulsing]
Well, this doesn't look too bad.
Duncan:
Are you kidding me?My face looks like the
Australian outback.
Barnes:
More like thesurface of Mars.
[Laughs] Mars?
No, it's not mar...
I mean, a little bit Mars, but no.
Barnes:
Is this it, doc?Or should we expect
other surprises?
Well, obviously, Duncan's
innate strength and resilience
have been growing steadily
since birth, but his natural
fight-or-flight response created
a hyper-stimulated state, which
manifested itself as
incendia respiro.
It's fire breath.
Yeah, you have it, Duncan.
time, but until then, you're
just going to have to stay out of
situations with, uh, potential conflict.
Duncan:
Like high school?[Chuckling] High school.
I remember high school.
That place didn't
work out well for me.
Barnes:
What I'm asking is...When will Duncan constitute a threat?
To humanity? Duncan?
No, no. He's a sweet boy.
He's not a pandemic.
[Chuckles]
Barnes:
It's only a matter of timebefore... Margaret: Duncan.
Duncan:
Hi, mom.Margaret:
Whose brilliant ideawas it to bring Duncan here?
Barnes:
Uh...How have you been, Margaret?
It's been a while.
Look... I-I don't like this,
either, but there was little
incendia respiro incident at school and...
Margaret:
That's what we calla "your problem."
I have a legal contract with
megtaf, stipulating my son have
as normal a life as
humanly possible.
Barnes:
And that's exactlywhat I'm doing, Margaret.
Your son's a fine kid, especially
for a boy without a father.
I'd be happy to give you my two cents
about him over dinner sometime.
Margaret:
Ah.Barnes:
A son of a buck!Margaret:
[Gasps]Duncan:
[Chuckles]Not bad, huh?
Very interesting.
Margaret:
Oh, baby.Barnes:
It's an oldgag, a classic.
The flash powder ignites on contact and...
poof!... Fireworks.
You can buy it at any
decent magic shop.
Troy:
What?That is such a load of bullcrap!
The freak's mouth shot flames!
Ugh!
Troy, we have discussed school
policy on name-calling.
And, Duncan, your prank could
Troy:
No, I-it did!My eyebrows were
totally burned off!
Troy, no offense, but I've had you in here
so many times, your name should be on that
chair on a brass plaque.
Now, since you're both at
fault, you can either choose
suspension, or work together
to clean up the damage.
Your call.
Troy:
Oh, yeah, right!Like I'm gonna do
anything with that yob?
Duncan:
[Exhales sharply]Look, Troy, um... I'm truly ashamed of my
thoughtless, dangerous, and immature prank.
I'm sorry.
Troy:
Are you kidding me?I know what I saw.
You are some kind of freak.
Just stay away from me.
Isabel:
Could've told youhow that one would go.
So, you coming to the big party
on berkshire Lane Saturday?
Duncan:
I wasn'tinvited to any party.
Isabel:
Nobody was.It's a "someone's parents are out of town"
party, where everybody just shows up.
Duncan:
Uh, yeah, I-it's notreally my kind of scene.
I-I'm not totally comfortable.
Isabel:
Oh, come on.You just tried to shake
hands with Troy Adams.
This is like 10 times
easier than that.
[Indistinct conversations]
Jenna:
Guys, seriously,it was in my locker.
When I got back,
it was just gone.
Why were you keeping the money
in your locker, anyway, Jenna?
[Scoffs]
Isabel:
About that party...Everyone is going, seriously.
Everyone.
Duncan:
Uh...Maybe I might stop by.
[Crickets chirping]
[Dog barking]
[Owl hooting]
Duncan:
Hmm.Margaret:

[Clears throat]Margaret:

Duncan:
Well, uh, it's like this...I'm kind of going to a, um, party.
Margaret:
You wereinvited to a party?
Oh, I'm so happy.
Duncan:
Your confidence in mypeople skills is overwhelming, mom.
Anyway, it's probably going to be a couple
of dorks sitting around playing video
games.
Margaret:
Well, Ihope you have fun.
[Sighs]
[Tires screech]
[Dog barking]
[Electronic music playing]
Yeah!
[Indistinct conversations]
Duncan:
Hey, Jenna.Uh, so, about my little dork show
in biology... Jenna: What?
Duncan:
Y-you see, there was thisthing, and I had to catch it.
Jenna:
What are youtalking about?
Duncan, right?
As humiliating as I'm sure that was, I
would trade places with you in a heartbeat.
Duncan:
What's up?I saw everyone acting
weird around you.
Jenna:

Duncan:
No way.Jenna:
I thought it was in my
