What would you do if you had spider powers?

I'd climb to the top of the football stadium

and watch all of the games for free.

-What about you? -Oh!

I'd re-engineer my webs to never disintegrate

so I could make permanent housing for all people in need.

Yeah...

Yeah, I'd do that, too.

After watchin' those free games, though.

-Hey, auntie Rae. -Hey, hey.

um, don't you think it's time for bed?

Yeah. Good night. Sleep tight.

What? No. Me? I meant you.

Why does Booker get to stay up and I have to go to bed?

Well, because he's older than you.

He's older, but I'm more mature.

-Nuh-uh. -Uh-huh.

-Nuh-uh. -Uh-huh.

Nuh-uh, and I can't hear you.

Lalalalalalalalala!

Okay, all right. You made your point.

You are more mature than Booker,

so why don't you pat yourself on the back on your way to bed?

Please, auntie Rae, I'm 10,

which you can round to 13, which is almost 16,

which is two years away from 18.

No, no, no, no. It's late and I don't have a calculator.

Get to the point.

The point is I'm basically an adult.

And adults get to stay up however late they want.

Please?

Okay, but I don't wanna hear

"I'm tired" in the morning, okay?

-Deal. -Okay.

Ooh, I love this movie.

You know, if I had spider powers,

I would climb to the top of the stadium

and watch all the concerts for free.

Right? Alice said she'd use her powers to help the world.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'd do that, too.

-After watching some concerts, though. -Right!

Yep! That's us.!

-Neil: Hey, Booker. -Ooh!

-Did you get our text?! -Uh, clearly, I didn't.

We need your help.

Something terrible's happened.

-My 'abuelita'... -Oh no!

-Just told me... -Oh good.

-That a bus load of children... -Oh no!

Was driving past the blimpo's on 9th street

and it's closing!

You really need to work on how you tell your stories.

Yeah.

The guy who owns blimpo's told Neil that he could have

the giant burger from the top of the building if he picks it up by noon.

-Mm-hm. -See, Neil?

That's how you tell a story.

The blimpo's burger? That thing's iconic.

I know! And it'd mean a lot to me to have it.

My grandpa used to take me to blimpo's after my little league games,

-but he can't anymore... -Oh no!

Because they're closing the store.

Neil, why are you guys here?

We need you to drive us to pick it up.

I only have 45 minutes for this mission

because I'm on a strict study schedule for my ap history test.

-Oh, you wanna take Janine? -Yeah.

That's not gonna work 'cause she's not running.

What? But you just paid all that money to get her fixed up.

Yeah, I know.

I actually have a mechanic comin' by today to take a look at her.

I-I guess we could walk to blimpo's and then roll the burger back.

-Now that could work. Let's go! -Yeah.

Don't you have to wait here for the mechanic?

Yup. Yup, I-I did say that.

-Well, looks like it's just you and me, Ivy. -Ugh, no way.

Walking will take forever. I will lose a good hour of studying.

I didn't wanna have to do this.

Is that the friendship coupon book I made you in fourth grade?

It sure is; And I'm officially cashing in my

"join me on a random adventure, no questions asked" coupon.

I knew I should've put an expiration date on those things.

I'm exhausted.

I don't know what I was thinking staying up so late watchin' that movie.

-Thank you. -Like I say, nothing good happens after 8:30.

When was the last time you stayed up past 8:30?

New Year's Eve, 1996.

And trust me... Nothing good happened.

Good morning, fellow adults. Is this fresh?

Uh!; What do you think you're doin'?

Just starting my day off with a cup of coffee...

...like a grown-up. -No, you are not.

Um, sorry. I'm confused.

I thought we all agreed last night that I'm an adult.

-You told her that? -No, I did not.

I told her she could stay up past her bedtime.

And look at me. I'm fine. I'm not even tired.

Clearly, I'm ready to make my own decisions like an adult.

Why are you in such a rush to grow up?

Because, adults get to do whatever they want.

They get to make their own rules. You guys have it easy.

I'm sorry. What you cacklin' about?

Because I remember having the exact same conversation

with you when you were her age.

You wanted to be an adult, too.

-How'd you handle it? -I let you.

You had ice cream for breakfast, popcorn for lunch,

and a stomachache for dinner.

-And mom let you do it? -Yeah.

Parents love watching their kids fail miserably so long as it proves us right.

Well... I'm not gonna fail.

Oh, okay then. Well, since Alice is an adult,

my services are no longer needed.

I'm going to the spa.

So, what's the first thing you're gonna do as an adult?

I haven't figured that out yet, Victor.

Oh no; You ain't that grown.

Pop-pop it is.

Ugh, I've been trying to get a reservation here for months.

Oh, what's that, Tasha?

Of course, we'll get french toast for the table, darling.

Ooh; A tea party! Can I play?

It's not a tea party. It's brunch.

Where we overdress, overpay, and overshare.

You know who loves brunch?

Panther man!

What's that, Panther man?

Panther man wants to know if the french toast

is for the table or if he should order his own.

Sorry, Alice, tea party's over.

Grandpa vic, it's brunch. And we have the table until four.

Well, too bad.

Alice has laundry to do.

Pop-pop, I'm grown now. I don't do chores.

Uh, grown-ups do chores.

Only they don't call them "chores." they call it "life."

Unless, you can't handle being an adult.

Fine. No problem.

I'll start the laundry and be back before the 'beignets' hit the table.

Panther man eats french toast.

Nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom.

Nom-nom-nom-nom -nom-nom-nom-nom.

Booker; Get out of the chair before you break it.

And what are you even doin' here?

I thought you were goin' out with Ivy and Neil.

Nah, I wasn't feelin' it.

Figured I'd stay here and hang with Alice, Tasha, and my main man...

Panther man.

Hey, Booker; What's goin' on with your car?

Did the mechanic fix it? -No, no. Janine's still not runnin'.

Not runnin'? Wh-what's wrong with her?

Oops... Uh, I must be gettin' another call.

You know, it might be the mechanic. Probably not. Gotta go.

-Ivy: what'd he say? -He's not coming.

Well, we can't carry this burger all the way home.

-It weighs a ton. -I know.

I thought a quarter pounder would be lighter.

Grandpa Vic; It's not that big a deal.

You busted your butt to get janine up and runnin'

and now it's no big deal?

-I don't understand. Let me try. -You really don't have to.

Whoa? Wow. How'd you fix it?

I turned the key.

You know what? I'mma remember that next time. Thanks.

Glad I could help.

She sounds great.

Not for long.

Why would every scut we call cancel on us?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe because we're two sweaty kids carrying a giant hamburger.

Ah; You're right. We should've called scut eats.

Come on, neil. This cable car is our only option.

-Okay. -All right.

-Lift on three, yeah? -Yeah. -One...

...two, and--

-What happened? -What do you mean? You lifted on "and."

Oh, right. Okay. Let's try it again.

Okay, I'll count this time.

One, two, lift!.

I said "lift."

Well, I thought we were lifting on "three."

-You pick up the burger, Neil. -Okay.

-Okay, come on. You got it. -Get in there!.

I got it. I got it. Get it up! Get it up!

-Okay, okay. --There we go.

- Careful. [Neil: -We're goin'.

Careful. Okay.

Finally, we're moving.

We're almost home. Only 44 stops to go.

Hey; Can I see that coupon book I gave you?

Oh, sure.

It's laminated.

Why am I such a good gift-giver?

I don't get it.

Your car started earlier. What could've happened to it?
