Oh, please, miss.

It was nothing. Oh, geez...

All in a day's work, ma'am.

Any cop woulda done the same.

Brain? Yech.

[Laughing]

Having another hero cop dream,

Uncle John?

Every time I close my eyes.

How was school?

Fine.

Don't forget:
Tomorrow's the day parents

come and talk about their careers.

Oh. Well, I might have to work.

You want me to ask off?

Oh, no. That's okay.

Parents coming to school...

whose idea was that anyway?

- But if it's important to you, Penny...

- Did the letter come?

Letter? Uh, gee, well...

What letter?

I don't... Oh, yes.

They said two years as a security guard

isn't enough experience to be a cop.

- Uncle John, I'm sorry.

- Me too.

Well, I can still secure and protect.

I just think I could do

so much more good as a cop.

Hey, wait a minute.

Tomorrow's your day off.

Oh, well...

[Sighs]

Look, I know that

Nicole's dad is a lawyer,

and Kim's dad is a dentist,

and I just didn't want

to embarrass you with your friends.

If I only had that badge.

Uncle John, it's not the badge,

it's the heart behind it.

I'm very proud of you.

[Woman]

Fingers crossed.

This chip is gonna make

the whole Gadget project work.

- Dad, concentrate. Try to move the foot.

- [Sighs]

[Man]

All right. Kick the ball.

[Sighs]

Nothin'. I'm hungry.

Okay, all right. I'll go get us

some dinner. But then we keep going.

- Yeah.

- Okay. I'll call the guardhouse...

so they don't search

the deliver guy again.

Hello, Antonio's? Yeah, it's Brenda.

No, foot's still not moving.

- Dad, keep thinking about

that foot. Yep, the usual.

- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

## [Humming]

## [Continues Humming]

- [Gasping] Dad.

- Hmm? What?

[Brenda Stammers]

Tap your foot again.

- What?

- Huh.

That's weird.

Wh-What were you thinking about?

I was thinking about how much

you remind me of your mother.

[Snickers]

Wait a second.

Wait a second!

That's it! It's animated

by will, not by thought.

By your heart, not your head!

[Laughing]

- Come on, try it again. Do it again!

- All right.

[Laughing]

[Together]

We did it! We moved the foot!

- [Woman] Jack, queen...

- [John Whistles]

[John]

Brenda Bradford... she's so beautiful.

- Wowser.

- [Woman]

Black eight on the red nine...

- What?

- Oh, oh, nothin'.

I was just talkin' to myself.

Thelma, how do I look?

Like a geek from Kansas

who became a security guard.

- [Cat Meowing]

- [Man] Brenda Bradford.

Well, good evening, young lady.

It's been a while. [Chuckles]

- Four, three, two, one, zero.

- ## [Brenda Humming]

- [Watch Beeps]

- Go.

- Dr Bradford.

- Yes?

- Hi.

- Hi.

- I borrowed a book from your dad.

- You did?

- Power Learning Through Speed Study.

- Oh.

It took me forever

to get through it.

But I really think

it's gonna pay off, though.

I just applied

to the Riverton police force.

- Yeah?

- It's what I've always wanted to do.

- Help people, that is.

- Um, I gotta...

Dr Bradford is out

of the lab and we can go in.

Sikes, release the remote-control van.

[Electronic Beeping]

- Nice stars.

- Yeah? Which ones?

I just meant the whole...

- All of'em.

- Oh, I thought you meant

a specific cluster.

I always take everything

so literally.

- So do I.

- Yeah?

I forgot my keys.

- Oh.

- [Chuckles]

- I'm... Okay. Night.

- Sorry. Good night, now.

[Sighs] Well, I'll just stay here,

then, and, uh, secure the parking lot.

[Tyres Screeching]

Concentrate, you twit!

Hey, that guy's speeding.

Ten miles an hour

in the parking lot, buddy!

- No-no-no-no, straight ahead!

No, left!

- Bad cat. Bad cat.

Left, Sikes, turn!

- What was that?

- We have an intruder

on the premises... a black van.

- Where?

- Try that big hole in the wall!

[Gasps]

Brenda.

- Huh?

- Hello, Artemus. I'll take that.

Oh, no, wait.

No, no, no, no!

- Now, just a moment... [Gasps]

- Arrivederci, Professor.

Uh-oh! Someone's gonna

blame the old lady.

Sniffy, let's go.

[Sobbing]

Dr Bradford, I won't rest until

lfind whoever's responsible.

Justice will be served.

Brown, where are you going?

- To catch the bad guys!

Stand back, Thelma!

- This isn't going to end well.

- You're not on duty, Brown!

- I'm always on duty!

[Sighs]

[Laughing]

[Chattering, Yelling]

[Horn Honking]

Oh, no. We're being chased

by the hatchback squad.

[Laughs]

Hey, I have a hatchback.

Ooh. Oh!

Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa!

Whoa-oah!

Now you've crossed the line.

Pull over, you!

- Stop the car, Sikes.

I want to enjoy this.

- [Laughing]

Oh, gosh! Oh!

- [Laughing]

- [Laughing]

[Laughing]

Uh-oh.
