that he's got one of his own.

What do you mean,

he's got one of his own?

Yeah, he and that guy from Japan.

They made a... gigantic version

of your super battery

and they're gonna unveil it

for town this afternoon.

The mayor's gonna be there

and everything.

- A gigantic version?

- Yeah.

- Oh no.

- What?

Oh no, they... there's no way

that they would have known

to incorporate the solar panels.

That the battery could overheat

and it could explode. How big is this thing?

Oh... I'd say it's about

the size of a... bus.

A battery that big

could blow up half this town.

I gotta call Mr. Willis

right now.

Mr. Willis's phone,

Jerome speaking.

Jerome, this is Tom Austin.

I demand to speak

with Mr. Willis, right now.

He's a little busy, right now and I'm

pretty sure he doesn't want to talk to you.

If you don't put him

on the I'm gonna tell him

that you like to take his clothes

and dress up in them

when you pick up his dry cleaning.

- You wouldn't.

- Oh, you bet I would.

Mr. Willis. Phone's for you.

- Who is it?

- Tom Austin.

Tom, what can I do for you?

Barry told me what you're planning...

Belch?

Where is that pain in my side?

He's stading right here.

Really?

- Give him the phone.

- He wants to talk to you

This is Barry.

Belch, you're fired.

Now, hand the phone back to Tom.

Yes sir.

This is Tom.

Tell me what want,

I have an event to run.

You cannot go through the unveiling.

The battery's too dangerous,

you don't understand.

What are you talking about?

It worked perfectly fine

in your robot dog.

That's because I altered that battery...

Altered it.

Industrial sabotage.

Industrial sabotage?

Let me guess,

you want me to pay you to fix it.

What? No...

You can forget about blackmailing me.

I've got my top guys on this project.

It is going to be fine.

- You don't understand how dangerous...

- Goodbye Tom.

Yes sir.

Make sure security doesn't let Austin

or Belch anywhere near the unveiling.

Yes sir.

- He's going to go through with it.

- Oh no.

He could hurt a lot of people.

We've got to stop him.

You in?

Of course.

- You in?

- I don't have a job, anyway.

- Robo-dog What about you?

- Affirmative.

Gentlemen.

Let's save the town.

It's a beautiful right here out-side

Epic Industries for this...

Mr. Willis. Mr. Willis!

Can you give us a little hint of

what this big announcement may be?

EPIC!

Epic announcement.

Okay right.

All right, could you please tell us

some hint of what this

big announcement may be?

Well... You'll find out soon enough!

Mr. Willis, can you please

comment on theatrics...

are here to cover up the lack

of an Epic announcement.

Well, my comment is they're

gonna be eating those words

because I speculate.

I speculate.

That this is gonna be

the best news that you..

And anyone else here

has ever heard.

And I'm going to go in

and meet the mayor.

Big words

from an even bigger ego.

We'll keep you live right here

from Epic Industries.

How we gonna get in?

I don't know.

We need some kind of distraction.

- Barry, what are you doing?

- I'm making a distraction.

- Why is he taking his cloths off?

- Because he's a strange man son.

- Hey! Look at me! Look at me!

- Hey, stop.

Who also, happens to be a genius.

Let's go.

I think they spotted us.

Don't worry Dad.

You can go we got this

You sure?

Good luck, Tom.

Thanks, son.

Was that you?

Get over here!

Hey!

Why're you running away from me?

What's your problem?

What are you and your little dog doing?

Tyler, duck.

Whoa!

Come on, Robo-dog, Come on.

Come pick me up they got me.

I'm at the security gate.

Where are you going?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

if you make your way to main stage.

Epic Industries main presentation

will begin momentarily.

Thank you.

- Sorry boss.

- Get him!

Hey, you, kid. Come back here.

- I said get back here.

- Robo-dog stay!

We're gonna get him.

Sorry.

My back!

- Ladies and gentlemen...

- C'mon boy, it's starting

it is my honor...

no... a visionary.

Who has single handedly changed the lives

of so many including my own.

His business charm and savvy

are unmatched by anybody

I have ever known...

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you for that...

that... humbling speech Jerome.

- You're welcome sir.

- Go sit down.

Ladies and gentlemen.

When I was a child,

I had dreams...

much like all you in the audience had

had a dream to be something

greater than anyone else.

I dream to create something that

would make people wonder

how they ever survived without it.

A dream to create

something truly Epic.

But, today, I don't present

to you words of a dream.

Today, I present to you a reality.

Today, I present to you a technology

that truly embodies everything

that Epic Industries stands for...

the...

the...

the...

- Jerome!

- Sorry.

The Epic.. SUPER BATTERY!

With the Epic Super Battery

you don't need to rely on traditional

forms of energy ever again.

Mr. Mayor

Will you have the honor

of turning it on please?

Yes, of course.

Wait!!

Don't do it Mr. Mayor.

- Well, what's the meaning of this?

- Ignore him.

He's a disgruntled employee.

I fired... a disgruntled employee

I fired for stealing.

Seriously, Mr. Mayor

if you turn that thing on,

you risk blowing up half the town.

Please, listen to my dad.

He created it.

He did?

I assure you everyone.

This is completely safe.

It's been checked out by my top scientist.

Right... bud?

Willis, I don't know

this all sounds very dangerous.

Perhaps we should postpone

until we know it's safe.

I already told you it was safe.

Watch this!

No!

See!

Isn't it magnificent?

Well, maybe he did fix it.

Everybody, don't panic.

Stay calm.

That thing's gonna blow!

Panic and run.

Grab Robo-dog and get as many people

as you can to a safe distance.

- What about you?

- I'm gonna try and shut this thing down.

Be careful.

Okay, folks

I need all of you to go back to cars.

- Shut it off, Willis.

- I can't.

Well, why not?

I don't know how.

What about the emergency

shut-off switch?

Oh, I took out the emergency

shut-off to save money!

Well that was of you.

Why would you do something like that?

- Why would I ever need to shut it off?

- Maybe for a situation just like this?

Look, I don't understand.

It worked perfectly in your machine.

Why doesn't it work in mine?

It's exactly the same.

Wait a minute

exactly like mine?

Well, except

for the emergency shut-off.

Oh, boy.

OH, BOY

If we can remove these in time,

hopefully we can lower

the output rate.

Mr. Soto, I assure this

is only a minor set back.

Mr. Willis, you are a fool!

This is not minor setback.

This is major castasrophe!

I can't get the last two fuses.

Hopefully the explosion

will be contained!

DAD! Robo-dog, help my dad.

I'll take care of the people.

I'm on it.

Look at this! It's beautiful!

My greatest invention ever!

Mr. Willis,

will stop laughing and run.

Tom, get out of there!

MR. WILLIS!!

Dad?

Dad?

- Dad? Dad? Are you Okay?
