In the Mighty Force headquarters lab.

Mr Davenport is with Leo, trying to restore his bionics after a year. Leo has a device on his arm.

"Okay, come on, I think this will work" Mr Davenport says "Big D, thank you so much for doing this" Leo says excitedly.

"This last year without bionics has driven me crazy" Leo says "Yeah, but it's still illegal, so be careful with it Leo, If someone from the FBI finds out...""I know, I know... Prison!" Leo interrupts.

"Yeah, and they can also suspend you as leader of the Elite Force" Mr Davenport says "I can't let that happen, Elite Force is my only focus at the moment" Leo says slightly upset.

Mr Davenport quickly looks at him "Still not over the breakup with Janelle?" Mr Davenport says "Yeah well, it's hard, I invested in my relationship with her since I was 14, she was a big part of my life that didn't lead to anything" Leo complains.

"Don't think like that, think that all of this was just your first experience with a relationship, which gives you more of a basis to achieve a stronger relationship in the next one" Mr Davenport says, setting up the device.

"Of course, but maybe this will give me time to focus on the missions and on being a bionic hero" Leo says, he sighs.

"It was one of the reasons why Janelle left me, I was more into it than into her, maybe I should admit this once and for all" Leo says, Mr Davenport sighs.

"First you need to know yourself, work on yourself only then will you be able to truly care for and love someone" Mr Davenport says "Is that what you did?" Leo asks, he sits on a stretcher for Mr Davenport restore his bionic leg.

"yeah, I've had several heartbreaks in my life, but it was only after I started focusing on myself, my company and my children that I became the man I needed to be to be able to love and care for your mother" Mr Davenport says, Leo smiles.

"That's really cool Big D, my mom is a lucky woman" Leo smirk, Mr Davenport nods gently, looking pleased with everything he has achieved.

"Done!" Mr Davenport says removing the equipment and devices, Leo moves his arm and leg "wow Big D, I feel renewed!" Leo smiles "Yes, but don't get excited, you may find it very difficult to control that arm in the next few weeks, it's been a year since you trained and this causes it to become a little rusty" Mr Davenport says, Leo looks at his arm.

"And with the Mighty Force equipment I was able to make some improvements to his bionics" Mr Davenport says "Wow seriously!?" Leo says excitedly.

"yeah, everyone else got updates and new chips, why leave you behind right?" Mr Davenport says with a sincere and proud smile "Now we're talking!" Leo says excitedly.

"Be responsible!" Mr Davenport says "okay okay" Leo says, he waits for Mr Davenport to leave to create a sphere of energy in his hand to feel the bionics flow in his arm, feeling powerful again "Oh, How i missed that!" Leo says with a satisfied look.

In the headquarters cafeteria, Bree is sitting at one of the tables with a snack and texting on her cell phone with a small smile.

Kaz walks in, he sees Bree smile at her cell phone and quickly assimilates all the facts and knows exactly what she's doing, No one at headquarters has a cell phone for security reasons, the only cell phone in the aircraft carrier is Jasmin's cell phone used in Bree's disguise mission.

The only people with access to that contact are Delegate Robin, and Matt, Kaz approaches her "Uh Bree?" Kaz says with a not very friendly look.

"Hey Kaz" Bree quickly looks at him and goes back to her cell phone, Kaz swallows hard and sighs "I thought Chase specifically told you not to use that cell phone outside of the mission" Kaz says irritated.

"Yeah but.. Matt sent me...I mean he sent a message to Jasmin and no one was whit the phone, if he was ignored he could be suspicious" Bree says "suspicious of what? That Jasmin has a life!" Kaz says irritated, Bree rolls her eyes.

Kaz takes the cell phone from her, he can't take the situation anymore, he feels like every day he loses Bree more and more "Hey!" Bree says irritated "I can't take this anymore" Kaz says.

Bree gasps irritably "Neither do I, you're just acting like this because it's Matt! What's your problem with him?" Bree says "my problem with him? Seriously Bree, you need to ask" Kaz says angrily.

"Yes!" Bree gets up and goes to him "I want you to tell me the truth?!" Bree says frustrated, Kaz sighs "say It" Bree presses Kaz "Why do you keep talking to him when you have me?" Kaz says, the heartbreak is evident in his voice.

Bree rolls her eyes, not exactly the answer she wanted "I'm tired of discussing this with you Kaz!" Bree says in agony "me too!" Kaz says upset, Bree and Kaz look at each other both upset.

The truth is, Bree never gave herself completely to Kaz out of fear, every other time she did this she was deeply disappointed, and the fact that Kaz never has and refuses to admit his feelings for her only makes her more uncertain, that's also why she has been trying to give Matt a chance.

However, her doing this has only made Kaz more insecure about admitting how he feels about her, he has never felt this way about someone before, not in such a real way. It makes him question her feelings and whether or not their relationship is as real for her as it is for him.

"Bree I...what are we?" Kaz asks, Bree takes a deep breath, in her head she wants him to say what he wants them to be, but the tension of the situation doesn't allow her to say that "We're friends" Bree says and crosses her arms looking down.

Kaz scoffs "we stopped being friends a long time ago Bree" Kaz says "Maybe you're right" Bree says "I don't know what we should do, but I can't. I don't feel good seeing you talk to him" Kaz says.

"Why not?" Bree asks, Kaz takes a deep breath, Bree shakes her head "Look Kaz, I don't think this is working like it should anymore" Bree says, Kaz looks at her worried.

"I agree..." Kaz crosses his arm, Bree waits a few seconds seeing that he really isn't going to say anything more about it, she sighs and walks past him "Something has to change, or has this all completely lost its meaning" Bree says quickly, quickly putting her hand on his shoulder and leaving.

Kaz closes his eyes and drops the cell phone on the table with a mixture of anger not only at Matt's situation, but at himself. But also feeling the deep heartbroken.

At the command center, Chase, Adam and Leo are talking while monitoring some teams on a mission.

Bree walks in and sits down on a chair sighing loudly impatiently

"Are you okay?" Adam asks "Um Yeah" Bree says softly brushing hair off her forehead "Bree, we know very well when you're not well, Tell us" Leo says "You don't want to waste your time because of this" Bree says.

"This is ridiculous, any second helping our sister isn't time wasted" Chase says turning his chair to Bree, She smiles, sometimes she misses the old days, where it was just her and her brothers, and things were simple.

"Look, promise you won't freak out or judge me or anything?" Bree says "Come on Bree, you can talk to us openly, we're already adults" Chase says "yeah, there are only adults here and Adam" Leo says, Adam turns to him, offended.

"What do you mean by that?" Adam says "Yesterday I had to stop you from putting your finger in the socket. Twice" Leo says "Hey I was just seeing if it was actually dangerous. I'm going to have a baby we have to keep this place safer" Adam says.

"I bet your baby will learn that you can't put a finger in the socket before you do" Chase says crossing his arms "Of course, because now I can tell him from experience that the happy face in the socket It's actually an evil smile, Evil!" Adam says, putting an apparently burnt finger of his in his mouth, Chase rolls his eyes "Guys!" Bree says raising her arms.

"Oh yeah, sorry" Adam says turning to Bree "What's going on with that little heart of yours?" Leo smiles pleasantly, Bree frowns at him, she sighs.

"There's this...guy...a friend" Bree says hesitantly, Chase rolls his eyes "Is that Matt?" Chase asks, Bree chuckles sarcastically "No! I mean... it's complicated" Bree says "Try to explain" Leo says.

"I've been seeing a guy for a while" Bree says, she shakes her leg anxiously as she finally gets ready to talk about it with them "Who?" Adam asks "It's not important the thing is...he and I agreed to be like friends with benefits, but lately things haven't been working out like they used to" Bree says upset.

They look at each other "Uh... so you've been.. with a guy all this time" Chase says slightly uncomfortable, Bree rolls her eyes "Yes Chase, and please don't play the jealous brother now" Bree says "I wasn't" Chase holds up his hands.

"What happened?" Leo says "he's been having jealous attacks over Matt" Bree says "Ooh you're mad at him because he's being jealous of you without being your boyfriend" Leo says

"Exactly, look. I really like him, but if he doesn't have the courage to take a step forward, I'm afraid I'm wasting my time" Bree says frustrated "Have you told him how you feel?" Adam asks.

Bree thinks and shakes her head "No, but I won't be the fool who opens up to a guy who doesn't feel the same way about me or is embarrassed to admit it" Bree says irritated "How hypocritical of you to say that when you don't even want to tell us the guy's name" Chase says, Bree looks at him, narrowing her eyes.

She sighs considering that if they knew it was Kaz their perspective would change, so they would have clearer opinions of the situation.

Bree presses her lips together thinking about telling them the whole truth, but a red light starts flashing on the console "Adam, what's going on?" Chase asks, Adam goes to the console next to him.

"We have a fuel leak in engine 4" Adam says, Chase sighs "I hate that place, it's where the electrical wiring for the entire aircraft carrier is, it's like walking into a electrical spider's web" Chase complains.

"I'll go there, I'll fix it" Leo gets up "How?" Bree asks "I have my arm back, I go there and tighten the fuel pipe and weld the broken part" Leo explains showing his arm.

"Leo, you don't need to do that, Adam can fix it. Plus Mr Davenport said you need some time to adapt to your bionics again" Chase says "Come on Chase, I'm not that clumsy little boy who breaks everything he touches anymore... Okay I broke my relationship but that's beside the point" Leo says.

Chase looks at him with pity "As you said, I'm an adult. I'm a leader now, just like you, if not better" Leo says, Chase smirks with a look that says "Oh I doubt it".

"I can fix a simple leak" Leo says, Chase chuckles "Okay, go ahead" Chase shrugs "But be careful with the sockets!" Adam says "great" Leo rolls up his sleeves and leaves the room confidently.

Finn was walking along the aircraft carrier when he passes a small storeroom and sees Skylar, he turns back and stops at the door.

Skylar was looking inside a box where she saw some things that were saved from Mighty Med "What's up?" Finn says.

Skylar smiles "Finn! Hi" Skylar says with a friendly smile "What are you doing?" Finn enters the room.

"I found this box, and I was just checking to see if there was anything of mine that might have been saved when Mighty Med was destroyed" Skylar says, Finn looks at the box "and found something" Finn says "just memories" Skylar says softly and looks at him.

"Eh that's the kind of thing that's priceless" Finn chuckles "Yup!" Skylar presses her lips together, Finn leans with one arm on the shelf in front of them, Skylar looks at him with a delicate smile.

"Why don't you tell me a little about Mighty Med? It seems like it was an important place for you" Finn says taking a Mighty Med badge from the box, Skylar puts her hair behind her ear.

"It was. But I don't think you have time to hear about it, I mean i don't want to start talking about it because when I decide to talk about something important to me I never stop" Skylar chuckles, Finn sighs "I'm willing to make that sacrifice" Finn smiles, Skylar looks into his eyes.

"I love listening to you" Finn says calmly, he remains serious while Skylar blushes slightly "Uh...'kay" Skylar smiles slightly nervously, Finn smirk enjoying her smile.

After arguing with Bree, Kaz goes looking for Harper.

For some reason she seemed to be the only person he could talk about this at the moment, and maybe because she knew Bree very well, she would help him think about what to do, but he wasn't sure if he would tell her how he feels about Bree.

Kaz searches the plane carrier and finds Harper and Grace in the cafeteria kitchen, where they were looking for something in the kitchen cupboards.

"What are you doing?" Kaz asks "Well, Grace has a pregnancy craving" Harper says, Grace smiles, Kaz frowns with a chuckle "From what?" Kaz says "I wanted to know too" Grace says.

"what?" Kaz asks "she has a craving, but she can't tell me what so we're trying everything, sweets, snacks, sweets and snacks together..." Harper says.

Kaz makes a disgusted face "And they're surprisingly good, prove it!" Grace says putting whipped cream on a Doritos and handing it to Kaz, Harper looks disgusted.

"No No..." Harper says in disgust, Kaz eats the Doritos with whipped cream "and he did" Harper looks away, Kaz tastes it for a few seconds and raises his eyebrow in surprise "Woah, it's not bad" Kaz says.

Harper looks at him confused and Grace chuckles nodding yes "Oh okay, she's pregnant so it's normal to have a weird taste. But what's your excuse?" Harper says "he's Kaz" Grace says "oh yeah good one" Harpe says.

Kaz tilts his head as Grace drops the bag of Doritos "but that's not it yet!" Grace says trying to understand what her craving would be, Harper rolls her eyes.

"Look, as much fun as it seems to be mixing strange foods and seeing if Grace likes it... I need to talk to you" Kaz says, Grace looks at him and narrows her eyes "You're having problems with a girl, aren't you?" Grace says.

"How do you know?" Kaz asks "Are you worried about your relationship with..." Grace gasps "Bree!" Grace says, Harper makes an impressed face.

"Did you tell her?" Kaz asks Harper "I swear I didn't" Harper raises her hands "It wasn't necessary, I discovered it myself..." Grace smiles proudly.

Kaz tilts his head, leaning on the table, wanting an explanation "First of all, I know you guys very well and you lie very badly" Grace says "a lot of people don't even suspect that, so we don't lie that bad" Kaz says.

Harper laughs "I think someone has heightened mother sense already" Harper smirks sarcastically "Look at the tone you speak to me, young lady!" Grace tells Harper as her eyes widen slightly, Grace gasps.

"Woah I felt it now!" Grace puts her hand on her belly, surprised by your mother sense, Kaz frowns and Harper presses her lips together, which turns into a confused smile when she looks at Kaz.

Meanwhile, Leo goes to the room where the fuel leak is occurring.

Leo tries to carefully pass through the aircraft carrier's electrical wiring.

"So many people in this headquarters and no one bothers to untangle these wires" Leo complains, trying not to trip over a wire.

Soon he sees the pipe where the leak is occurring "Okay here we go" Leo says to himself approaching the pipe and analyzing the fuel flow.

It uses the super strength of the bionic arm to tighten the pipe, refitting it to the rest of the piping.

Leo sighs "Great. And Chase still doubts my ability" Leo scoffs, he uses his laser spheres abillity to heat his hand so he can weld the pipe.

Leo finishes welding the pipe and moves his hand away, but it continues to heat up "Okay, I'm done" Leo says, trying to deactivate the waiting laser forming in his hand.

"I ended!" Leo says feeling his hand heat up more and more, he starts to despair "I said I'm done!" Leo squeals in despair waving his hand, which results in him throwing the sphere twice as powerful as the ones he was used to. Against the wires on site.

The electrical wiring wires throughout the aircraft carrier "Uh-oh" Leo's eyes widen, seeing sparks come out of the wires and at the same moment he hears the aircraft carrier's main light and power generator stop.

Causing a blackout in common areas and the aircraft carrier's command center.

◆ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❴✪❵ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ◆

Chase, Adam and Bree who were in the command center hear the generator go off.

"Was that the generator?" Adam asks "Nope. That was Leo" Chase gets up from his chair and heads towards the door.

Next to the generator, Leo ended up damaging the wiring of the security system of the aircraft carrier doors which, in any type of power failure, would close automatically,

The door closes in Chase's face "Oh shit" Chase says hearing only the sound of the doors locking and the light going off.

The doors to the kitchen where Harper, Grace and Kaz were also close along with the lights that go out, they look at each other confused.

Mr Davenport, Douglas, Melody and Oliver were in the corridors of the plane carrier, they are the only ones who would have access to the place where Leo is, but everything is dark.

Skylar and Finn,who were still in the small storeroom are surprised when the door closes and the light goes out, leaving them trapped "What was that?" Skylar says trying to open the door "I think it's just a blackout" Finn says.

Skylar tries to open the door "No, no, no" Skylar says while she is unsuccessful in opening the door, she begins to despair as she looks around and sees how small the place is.

"Sky, there's no way to open the door without power, it's automatic" Finn says, Skylar looks at him and starts waving her hands, Finn frowns "Are you okay?" Finn asks.

"Mm-hmm" Skylar says starting to hyperventilate in some sort of panic attack "Skylar?" Finn says starting to worry "This place was so small when we walked in here" Skylar says.

After being trapped in a glass cube for a year, narrow and alone, Skylar ended up creating a trauma of closed and narrow places. She feels extremely suffocated, remembering the feeling of being trapped, something she is terrified of experiencing again.

Skylar leans against the wall in agony in the small, dark room "Skylar stay calm!" Finn says worriedly "I can't stay here, I can't get stuck again, i can't" Skylar says, her fear is starting to take over.

Finn looks at her scared "I can't" Skylar shakes her head and starts to sit on the floor "Skylar calm down, I'm going to get us out of here, you just need to stay calm!" Finn says, Skylar breathes quickly.

Skylar presses her lips together and shakes her head, Finn bends down in front of her "Hey Hey, look at me" Finn says "You don't understand!" Skylar says scared, panic attacks like this are not easy to control, not even for her.

"I understand, Skylar look at me" Finn says, Skylar whimpers, Finn holds her hand and puts it on his chest "Hey pay attention to my heartbeat!" Finn says, Skylar looks at him confused "What?" Skylar says "Try to keep up with my heartbeat" Finn says, Skylar looks at her hand on his chest.

She begins to pay attention to the rhythm of his heartbeat "Breathe and breathe in" Finn says calmly, Skylar pays attention to his heartbeat and her breathing, and it slowly calms her down.

Finn smiles gently seeing that she is calming down, Skylar looks into his eyes "Shhh it's okay, I'm here" Finn says, Skylar doesn't contain a quick smile.

"Don't think about anything else, just think it's just you and me somewhere" Finn says, Skylar nods, while Finn continues to hold her hand.

"When I was little, my mother would wake up several nights from nightmares about Krane. I was the only one there who could calm her down, I noticed that whenever I hugged her she would lay her head on my chest and It calmed her down" Finn explains in a soft tone of voice.

Skylar looks at him calmly moving her hand away from his chest "why?" Skylar says "She said that when she saw my calm heartbeat, she realized that she wasn't alone and that there was someone calm showing that her fears weren't as big as they seemed in her head" Finn says, he sits next to Skylar.

"That... really works" Skylar says calmly "I know" Finn says, Skylar sighs and looks at him "Thank you" Skylar says "I wouldn't let you freak out" Finn smirk "You're really kind" Skylar smiles.

Finn looks away "Thanks" Finn says trying not to get carried away by the feeling, Skylar continues looking at him.

Harper tries to open the kitchen doors "Yup! We're trapped" Harper says "I don't think it's bad at all" Grace says looking for something to eat.

"What could have caused this blackout?" Kaz crosses his arms "I heard the main generator go out, it means someone tampered with the electrical wiring on the aircraft carrier" Harper says.

"Oh or it could have been the rain, rain causes blackouts" Grace says, Harper shakes her head "Indeed" Harper says sarcastically.

"But I want to know what happened to you Kaz, what made you so frustrated?" Grace asks, Kaz scratches the back of his head "Bree and I argued again" Kaz says

"Because?" Harper asks "Because of Matt, it's obvious that Bree is interested in him!" Kaz says irritably walking around the kitchen.

Grace is suddenly eyeing him with suspicion as a smirk crosses Harper's face, "And why is it such a problem for you that she could possibly find interest in Matt?" She flips her hair over her shoulder and sits on the floor, patting on the spot next to her for him to sit.

"She's... too young!" Kaz's voice cracks and he sits, avoiding any eye contact with Harper.

"Too young?" Harper's voice, laced with humor and mischief, travels across the room as she searches through a cabinet over the stove.

"Ye-yeah, too young to date, to even be having these kinds of feelings. I mean really, I'm just looking out for her best interests." Kaz fakes a smile causes both girls to eye him suspiciously, Harper cocky for knowing his secret and Grace almost proud, her motherly instincts kicking in.

"Does little Kazzy have a crush?" Grace's smile is nearly bigger than her face, making a point of mock him.

She goes to stand from where she sits on the floor, but her belly gives her a hard time, and so defeated, she settles back in her spot on the floor, legs crossed. Harper sniggers but nods an intense yes as she returns to the both of them. When she reaches them, she sits to form a triangle of the three of them. She also holds three cocktail glasses, a single can of beer and an apple juice box, as well as a large bag of Coco Puffs.

Grace takes a moment to pause the conversation and nods to the items which Harper has spread out, "What's all that for?" Grace asks.

Harper smiles childishly as she begins to pour the juice box into the cocktail glass as if it were a fine liquor, "It's obvious isn't it? I need a beer, we need to loosen Kaz's tongue, and you... well, you can't drink right now." Harpe explains, Grace nod's and happily takes the glass.

"And the Coco Puffs?" Kaz asks, whit a smirk on his face.

"Can a girl not enjoy the simple pleasures of a childhood cereal?" Harper exclaims, throwing her hands in the air like a little girl, and then handing him his glass, 'accidentally' spilling a bit more of his into her own.

"And quit trying to change the subject, the question still hangs in the air. Do. You. Like. Bree?"

First Kaz takes a deliberately slow swig of his beer and then a large handful of Coco Puffs which he chews defiantly. Finally, when he has no choice but to speak, he tilts his head and says "Has that painting always been there?" Kaz's eyebrows crease and Harper's eyes follow his.

"Kaz! Answer the-" "No, no wait, I think he has a point." Harper stares at the abstract painting on the wall, eyebrows raised and lips parted.

Grace looks for a moment as well but then shakes her head. ""I'll ask you one more time, fire boy, do you like Bree?"

Kaz shakes his head, "No, no... I think I love her actually. I love her. Wow, that feels good to say out loud." He smiles and takes a long swig of his beer.

"Love is a strong word Kaz..." Harper says.

"And one well used! This is so exciting! You guys will be so cute together and your wedding would be so wonderful, just imagine how beautiful your children would be!" Grace's voice booms with enthusiasm as she jumps in place, seeing as she is still finding it difficult to stand.

Kaz stares distantly in wonderment for a moment before wrinkling his brow and shaking his head.

"Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves here, she doesn't even know that I want more than just the physicalities." Kaz blushes a little and chuckles sheepishly.

"You've... done it? Wow, that's never something I ever saw you figuring out." Grace comments absentmindedly. Harper lets out a rough snort and Kaz is taken back, his expression only causing Harper to laugh harder and heel over onto the floor.

"What did you think was going on?" Harper continues laughing "I really imagined something like pre-school dating, holding hands and stuff" Grace says, Kaz rolls his eyes, Harper laughs louder.

"What is it about these Davenport siblings that always gets us? It's always the best of us who fall for them." Grace sighs and Harper, now sitting up straight again, wiping the joyful tears from her eyes nods, biting her lip and scrunching her nose a bit, clearly thinking of Chase.

"Well down to the main topic, I'm not sure how to get my point across, I'm worried that if I say something, I'll mess up what we already have and make things awkward, but if I say nothing, there's a chance that things could go south anyways and end up worse than awkward." Kaz sighs and rubs the back of his neck anxiously.

"We'll help you." Grace says, her smile bright and kind "Really?" Kaz furrows his brow and a small, unintentional smile crosses his lips as he realizes how close he has grown with the two girls.

"Of course doofus, you think we are just going to stand by and watch you mess it up? No, we're going to help you mess it up in a cute romantic way. And, if there is anything I know about Bree, it is that she is at her happiest with you and that when the two of you are together, it's like watching the 'See The Light' scene in Tangled." Harper says, chuckling and giving him a small punch to the arm.

She suddenly stands up, taking a few Coco Puffs and throwing them in her mouth. "But, before we fix your love life, we have a much bigger crisis to deal with." Harper says "Bringing back on the power?" Kaz assumes.

"No, getting Grace to stand up." Harper says giving a tired sigh, Grace nods her head several times extending her arms.

At the command center.

Adam and Chase try to reactivate the doors "Don't you have a manual control?" Bree asks watching the door.

Chase sighs, running a hand through his hair "Not in here" Chase says "So we're stuck until Leo can figure it out?" Bree asks "Yes" Chase says "Great then it's all up to Leo" Adam says sarcastically.

"We're probably going to stay here forever" Bree says sarcastically, Adam looks at the ground for a while rethinking her sentence "We're going to stay here forever" Adam says in a serious and distant tone.

"Adam calm down!" Bree says "No Bree, i mean It, we're going to stay here forever" Adam says looking worried, Chase frowns thoughtfully "Adam calms down" Chase says "No! I can't!" Adam shouts, sighs and sits on the chair.

Bree and Chase look at each other "Why do I get the impression you're not freaking out about the power?" Chase says, Adam shakes his head, he's been tormented by this thought for a while, maybe it's time to open up.

Bree sits next to him and puts her hand on his back. "What's going on, Adam?" Bree asks, Chase sits in the chair in front of him, Adam's breathing becomes shaky and he shakes his head.

"How am I going to raise a child like that?" Adam says softly with a tear running down the corner of his eye, Chase and Bree look at each other again worriedly "what do you mean?" Bree asks.

Adam presses his lips together "We can't live in the outside world, Bree" Adam looks at her "The last thing I want is for my son to not be able to grow up in the real world like I did" Adam says, with weight on his chest and that same weight soon hits Bree and Chase.

"We'll find a way" Bree says, Chase remains silent and looks down "The only way would be for me to let him and Grace live a normal life, I don't want to abandon my family" Adam says in a crying tone.

Bree holds back her tears and hugs Adam, Chase takes a deep breath "You're not" Chase says, Adam and Bree look at him.

"You're right, there's no way to keep living like this" Chase says, Bree and Adam frown at him in distress.

"I promise you you won't have to abandon your family, Adam" Chase says "What are you talking about?" Adam says wiping his tears.

"I've been thinking about this a lot, months. And I think I know how I can solve all of this, I just need you guys to let me do it" Chase says seriously.

"Chase, you're scaring me" Bree says, Chase runs his hand through his hair and sighs "I'm going to turn myself in to the authorities" Chase says, finally saying it out loud sounds weird, and much scarier than just think about how he used it.

Bree scoffs indignantly and Adam looks at him scared "Are you going to surrender?" Bree says "Yeah, it's part of the plan" Chase says "what a shitty plan" Adam says, Chase grinds his teeth.

"Really? You're going to throw everything you've been fighting for over the last year out the window like that?! Just because you can't take it anymore?!" Bree says angrily "No! I know what I'm going to do exactly, It's me for your freedom, it's not surrender, it's a sacrifice" Chase says irritated.

Bree shakes her head "they're going to kill you" Adam says "They won't" Chase says firmly "You can't be sure of that, Bram has shown more than once...that he's not afraid to get his hands dirty if it's necessary" Bree says.

Chase groans, the discussion is going exactly as he predicted. "What does Harper think about this?" Adam asks "Ah Harper can't know any of this!" Chase says it loud and clear.

"You're scared to tell her because you know it's madness" Bree says "Madness is continuing to live in a world where we are condemned for being heroes" Chase says.

"We've been doing something about it" Adam says "and we've gotten really far with it, but it's time for the next step. I'm ready for the next step and if it works you'll all come with me" Chase says.

"What is the next step?" Bree says, Chase looks at her "do you guys trust me?" Chase asks, wanting a sincere answer, Adam looks at Bree.

"Sure, but we don't trust them" Bree says, Adam agrees "Look, I took it as my responsibility to be the captain and leader of this headquarters and any superhuman who steps foot here... and I did it by keeping my promise to give them a better life." Chase says.

"You're doing this" Adam says "Where is this a better life? We have to accept that things have gotten out of our control" Chase stands up.

"Look what Mr Davenport had to do. Look at everything we lost, the Elite Force is practically just a name, Davenport Industries no longer exists, the people are being silenced because all they want is their heroes back but they know they don't have a voice for that" Chase paces back and forth.

Bree and Adam look at him reflectively, they know it's true "Adam, you're soon facing the most important day of your life and you can't fully enjoy it because of everything that's happening" Chase points out "We're going with you" Bree says getting up.

"No! I'm the one who should do this..." Chase takes a deep breath "I'm only telling you this because I need to guarantee the security of the headquarters and Harper, no one I trust in this more than you. I just want to make sure that when things get tough I'll have your full support" Chase puts his hand on his hip looking at them worried.

"Harper is going to kill you" Adam smirks, slightly upset by this conversation, Chase tries to hold back his smile at the thought of her "I'll do it for her" Chase says calmly.

"She's going to be fine, I promise you" Bree says with a heavy voice "I'm going to be fine too, I promise" Chase goes to her and hugs her, Adam gets up.

"I missed this" Adam hugs them both, Bree and Chase smile as they both lay their heads on Adam's shoulder "I love you guys" Bree says "me too" Adam and Chase say.

As complex as the situation is, for the first time in a year, the three finally get a glimpse of who they used to be. Despite the difficulties, their union made everything easier to accept.

Finn and Skylar continue to sit on the floor waiting for the power to come back on.

Skylar sighs "Aren't you going to ask why I'm terrified of small places" Skylar says "I wouldn't be keeping you calm by doing that" Finn says staring at the wall.

"Oh yeah, you're right" Skylar giggles, Finn smirks at the sound of her laughter "I must admit that you... have grown a lot as a person in the last year. I admire that" Skylar says, Finn looks at her.

"I appreciate it" Finn says, Skylar smiles "I look up to you a lot" Finn says "Really?" Skylar says "Yeah, you're smart, brave and have a beautiful heart. Like everything to admire about someone you have...how can i not be inspired by that" Finn says sincerely.

Skylar blushes, she sighs, she doesn't want to feel like this "Are you okay?" Finn says worried if she's having another panic attack.

"Uh yeah I'm... it's just hot in here" Skylar gives a shy smile, Finn points up "the air conditioning stopped working too" Finn says.

Skylar tucks her hair behind her ear, She looks at Finn and bites her lip lightly, not wanting to say anything.

"Finn..." Skylar closes her eyes "Yeah?" Finn says "Have you ever felt like someone truly understood you, without you having to say a word?" Skylar says.

Finn leans his head against the wall looking at her with a smile "I feel that way about you" Finn says, Skylar smiles "You see the world in a unique way, and I like that" Finn says.

Skylar sighs and takes his hand "I also like the way you are careful with your family and friends, I think that...." Skylar looks into his eyes "It's beautiful" Skylar says calmly.

"You're beautiful" Finn whispers, the two looking into each other's eyes, Skylar smiles and slowly approaches him, Finn turns more towards her.

Finn looks away from her lips as she approaches until her forehead touches his, both already breathing the same air, Skylar threatens to close her eyes while Finn threatens to lean in more.

Skylar suddenly clears her throat and slowly walks away, taking a deep breath, Finn purses his lips and looks down frustrated "I think I better get up a little" Skylar gets up.

"Y-yeah I agree" Finn says sighing loudly and trying to ignore what just happened.

Leo in the engine room.

Had taken a flashlight and was looking for a way to fix the generator when Mr Davenport, Douglas, Melody and Oliver appeared lighting the way with flashlights.

"Leo, what did you do?!" Douglas says "No one says thank you for containing the fuel leak, do they?" Leo says indignantly.

"Leo, I specifically said that you weren't prepared to use your bionics full blast like that yet!" Mr Davenport says, Leo rolls his eyes "Okay Big D, I messed up, and I got carried away. But don't judge me because you have no idea how difficult it is to live without bionics" Leo says "Wasn't you the one who lived 16 years without it?" Melody points out.

Leo stares at her for a few seconds without expression "Leo, I can recalibrate your bionics automatically later but now our focus is fixing the generator" Douglas says.

Oliver finds the generator and opens it "It's here" Oliver says, Mr Davenport walks up to him whit Leo.

"Okay I must say that I like blackouts reminds me of our first date when we were trapped in that grocery store" Douglas says to Melody giggling, Melody gently puts her hand on his face.

"Aw Honey that wasn't a date" Melody says "Well it was for me" Douglas says, Melody rolls her eyes and quickly kisses her husband on the cheek, before he goes to the generator.

Melody shines her flashlight on the generator while the others analyze the situation "Leo must have hit one of the main cables that runs all the way through the wiring" Oliver says.

"Okay I don't know who built this thing but they certainly don't understand anything about an efficient electrical system" Mr Davenport says trying to understand the cables.

"I studied the blueprints of this aircraft carrier. In fact it was built in a hurry" Douglas says "It was built a few years ago as a backup plan after Mighty Med received many threats. They wanted a safe place in case it was destroyed and when it actually was, the aircraft carrier wasn't ready" Oliver explains.

"Good, but now I'm here and I'm not happy with this electrical system, nothing that high-tech panels and generators can solve" Mr Davenport says "That's no longer up to you to decide Donny" Douglas says, Mr Davenport quickly look at Douglas.

Both saw that they were already entering a new era of their lives, in which command of things and leadership no longer belonged to them. Now they only have part of it because they are equal to or even below their children in these decision-making.

Oliver follows one of the cables coming out of the generator and finds it broken "I found it!" Oliver says, Douglas checks the cable "that's the one!" Douglas says "Is there a way to patch it?" Leo asks.

"We're going to have to replace the cable" Mr Davenport says "Mel, go to the Lab and get a replacement cable" Douglas says to Melody "Okay" Melody hands Leo the flashlight "Be careful" Douglas tells her as she leaves.

Adam, Bree, and Chase are sitting beneath the command center's main console.

Bree giggles nostalgically "Remember when we were little kids, and we hid like that under the cyber desk in the lab when Mr Davenport was traveling because we were afraid of being alone?" Bree says, Adam and Chase smile "I wasn't afraid of us being alone I was afraid of us being alone with Eddy!" Chase says.

"I miss Eddy" Adam says, Chase and Bree look at him "It's a lie but I wanted to continue the nostalgic mood" Adam says "Oh" Bree laughs.

"Hey, you didn't tell us who the guy you're having a thing with" Chase says, Adam looks at Bree.

"Well, it's a fact that you were going to find out sooner or later so..." Bree takes a deep breath, Chase and Adam look at each other expectantly.

"It's Kaz" Bree gasps "WHAT?!" Adam and Chase say.

"You guys promised you wouldn't judge me!" Bree says "Oh we're not" Chase says "Speak for yourself" Adams says Chase hits him on the shoulder.

Bree rolls her eyes, "Wait, you guys are just trying to be friends with benefits?" Chase asks awkwardly, Bree crosses her arms "why does it matter?" Bree says blushing.

Chase smiles gently "because that doesn't seem like the kind of thing you would do...That both of you would do" Chase says, Bree looks ahead and takes a deep breath.

"So Kaz is the guy you like wow..." Adam says "I know what you're going to say" "It's great!" Adam smiles "what?" Bree says "Kaz is a great guy" Adam says, Chase frowns but agrees lightly.

"Yeah, but I..." Bree says "You'll never know if he likes you or not if you keep running away from this conversation" Chase says "I don't want to lose him" Bree says "You're going to lose him if you guys keep arguing without resolving anything" Adam says.

Bree frowns "Oh God when did my brothers become more relationship savvy than me?!" Bree says frustrated "We didn't actually, don''t you see how many times we messed up?" Adam says "Speak for yourself" Chase scoffs.

Adam and Bree glares at him "Okay fine, I get it. But out of the three of us I have the most years of experience" Chase brags, Adam looks at Bree and they roll their eyes.

In the engine room.

Melody took the replacement cable and Mr Davenport and Douglas installed it to the generator.

"Okay, I think that will do it" Douglas says "you can turn on the generator, Big D" Leo says and Mr Davenport turns on the generator, which starts working normally again.

"Yesss! It worked!" Oliver says "Yeah!" Leo celebrates by giving him a high five.

Soon the entire aircraft carrier recovers energy by unlocking the doors.

First in the kitchen where Harper, Grace and Kaz were, Grace had mixed the Coco Puffs next to her juice in her glass "Hey, the lights are finally back on!" Harper says "Hey, I finally found out what my craving was!" Grace says showing the glass, Kaz laughs and looks at the two girls, happy to create this bond with them, he felt as if they were necessary company for the rest of his life.

Then the light returns in the command center "Great! The power is back. Adam check the panels to see if everything is working, Bree checks the headquarters to see if everyone is okay. I'm going after Leo" Chase says as he gets up and leaves the command center.

"Uhg Chase never takes a day off" Bree groans and leaves under the console with Adam who helps her up "It's what he likes to do" Adam says with a sigh "And you?" Bree asks "I can't wait to take maternity leave" Adam says going to the console, Bree laughs.

Skylar and Finn are still in the small storeroom, Skylar walks from one side to the other and sighs, Finn bites his nails thinking he should break the silence that established between them after that moment, Finn finally gets up "Skylar I..." Finn is cut off when the light comes back on and the door opens "Oh my finally!!" Skylar leaves the room desperate "...love you" Finn says quietly to himself after she leaves.

Skylar steps out into the hallway and takes a deep breath of relief, "Freedom!" Skylar sighs, Finn comes out and sees her relieved she smiles at him "Thank you Finn" Skylar hugs him "Thank you for taking care of me" Skylar says, Finn smiles.

"I will always take care of you" Finn says, Skylar breaks the hug and looks into his eyes "You're amazing" Skylar says, Finn smiles gently as the two exchange a delicate look of admiration, slowly moving away from each other.

"Skylar!" Oliver says entering the hallway "Oliver, are you okay" Skylar smiles and hugs him, Finn looks away biting his lip in frustration "I was worried I looked for you everywhere" Oliver says "Yeah me and...I got stuck in this storeroom" Skylar says, Finn frowns at the fact that she didn't tell Oliver that he was with her in the storeroom.

"Are you okay? I know you don't like small places" Oliver says, Skylar looks at Finn quickly "I'm okay, I realized that maybe my fear isn't that big, Small places can bring us closer" Skylar says gently, Finn smiles happily "What do you mean?" Oliver asks "No, nothing" Skylar turns to him.

Chase goes to the engine room "Leo!" Chase says "Captain, you won't believe it...a mouse ate the wiring in the aircraft carrier, I'm glad I was here to fix it!" Leo says, Chase smirks as Douglas, Melody and Mr Davenport look through their.

"Is this mouse by any chance called Leo?" Chase crosses his arms "Sorry Chase" Leo says "I told you" Chase says "Technically it's big D's fault" Leo says "why is it my fault?" Mr Davenport says.

"Well let's be honest you didn't do a very good job restoring the boy's bionics" Douglas says "Douglas" Melody says, Mr Davenport laughs "I love that now you have a wife to scold you" Mr Davenport laughs.

Chase nods "okay everyone is fine and power has been restored. But we lost valuable mission time with this" Chase says "About that Chase, don't you think it would be interesting now that we have access to some things from Davenport Industries, to restructure the aircraft carrier's electrical system?" Mr Davenport suggests.

Chase thinks "No" Chase turns and starts to leave "What?" Mr Davenport says "Uuh that's not a good feeling is it?" Leo laughs remembering all the times Mr Davenport said No to them.

"For that we would have to land and I'm not going to risk it, it's dangerous" Chase says "But Chase, this os a failed power system, you saw it" Mr Davenport starts to follow Chase.

"It's been running for the last few years and is constantly under repair, I have it under control" Chase says "But Chase!" Mr Davenport says "No!" Chase says and the two leave the engine room.

"Yeah, the world turns" Douglas laughs "For Real" Leo says, Melody holds Leo's shoulders "let's fix your bionics" Melody smiles, Leo smiles at him and they leave the engine room.
