1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,839
Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:08,119
I'm Martin, and you are listening to another weekend edition

3
00:00:08,279 --> 00:00:11,480
of Dad's Bedtime Stories, where I take some of my

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,439
past stories and kind of put them together into a

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,839
super story. Tonight, I bring you something very special to

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,640
my heart, a series of stories I wrote to make

7
00:00:22,719 --> 00:00:25,719
fun of my dad a little bit. He was having

8
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:31,800
knee surgery, so I wrote a story called Grandpa Robonese. Then,

9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,280
because someone suggested it, I wrote a sequel called Grandpa

10
00:00:36,399 --> 00:00:40,479
Robonese and the Geriatric Justice Squad. I think a lot

11
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,479
of people have forgotten about them by now, but I

12
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,600
just want them to live on forever, because yeah, my

13
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:51,479
dad has robonees. That's why. Anyways, I hope you enjoy

14
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,280
these two full stories, and I hope they're so good

15
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,320
they put you to sleep. Everyone, I have a great one.

16
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,799
Now it's time to close your eyes, get as comfy

17
00:01:03,799 --> 00:01:07,560
as you can in that bed, and imagine yourself doing

18
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:14,439
what the kid or kids in the story do. Now,

19
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:20,239
this story takes place somewhere very familiar to me, a

20
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:25,400
small town in the middle of Ontario, in the country

21
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:31,799
of Canada. You see two kids, Charlotte, who was seven

22
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:36,840
years old and Oliver, who was eight years old, had

23
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,120
a pretty awesome time growing up in a pretty awesome

24
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:45,879
small town. They really enjoyed visiting their grandparents' house whenever

25
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,040
they could, and that's exactly what they did the day

26
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:55,719
in question. They got dropped over to play with their grandparents,

27
00:01:56,319 --> 00:02:00,480
and while their grandmother was moving around the house doing

28
00:02:00,519 --> 00:02:07,840
grandmother like things, something was different about Grandpa. Yeah. Grandpa

29
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:12,199
was the kind of guy, like many grandpas, who could

30
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:17,000
fix just about anything. He could often be found plugging

31
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:22,800
away in his pretty well equipped workshop, and sometimes when

32
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,439
the kids came over, he liked to bring them out

33
00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:31,319
there and work on little projects. But today Grandpa was

34
00:02:31,439 --> 00:02:34,879
just laying down on the couch with a bag of

35
00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:42,400
peas on one of his knees. What's wrong, Grandpa, Oliver asked.

36
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: Oh, well, I got my knee replaced. You see, it's

37
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:54,919
my second knee replacement, and I can't move around as

38
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,000
much as I could for a little while.

39
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: Grandpa's you mean you can't play with us, Oliver responded.

40
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,879
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Ollie, no, I don't believe will be able

41
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:21,319
to play today. You and Charlotte will have to entertain yourselves.

42
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what the two of them did. They

43
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:27,800
played with all of the toys that their grandparents still

44
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,639
had from when their parents were growing up, but the

45
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,120
visit just wasn't the same. That night, their father, Martin,

46
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:40,800
picked them up and brought them home. It was getting

47
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,280
pretty late, so he sent them directly to get ready

48
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,719
for bed. The two of them brushed their teeth, got

49
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,000
into their pajamas, and then they both went to their

50
00:03:53,039 --> 00:03:59,960
bedrooms and started climbing into bed. Well, Martin was outside

51
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,199
in the hall he heard a voice coming from Charlotte's room.

52
00:04:05,639 --> 00:04:10,599
He walked up to the door, peeked inside, and there

53
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:16,959
he heard Charlotte, with her hands clasped together, making a

54
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:24,040
wish to well, God or the universe or whatever, please

55
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:30,000
make Grandpa better soon. I want to play with him.

56
00:04:30,759 --> 00:04:35,240
Thank you. Charlotte then pulled the covers up over top

57
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:41,959
of herself and went to sleep. Now Martin, having heard

58
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,040
this very sweet wish from one of his six favorite

59
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:52,439
people about one of his other six favorite people, well,

60
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,160
he couldn't resist getting a little bit emotional, and that's

61
00:04:58,199 --> 00:05:02,519
when an idea came into his mind. Now, for those

62
00:05:02,519 --> 00:05:04,959
of you who've been listening to my stories for a

63
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,879
while you would know that we Martin's are kind of

64
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,079
stewards of the story verse. We take the role of

65
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,439
making sure all sorts of things stay in their very

66
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,560
own universes and don't wander off into other ones. Well,

67
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,839
the Martin in this story was no different, and as

68
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:33,920
a result of being such a good steward of the

69
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,639
story verse, he had a couple friends who he thought

70
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:43,480
he might be able to call on. Here, Martin quickly

71
00:05:43,519 --> 00:05:47,279
snuck outside where no one else could hear him. He

72
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,839
took out his phone and he made a phone call. Hey,

73
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,879
it's uh, it's me Martin, Yeah, from Earth three sixty five.

74
00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:03,319
That's right. Well, the thing is, I could really use

75
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,560
a favor. Do you think you can meet me here

76
00:06:06,639 --> 00:06:10,879
in a few minutes, he said to whoever. The person

77
00:06:10,959 --> 00:06:14,439
on the other side of the phone was all right,

78
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,480
I'll see you soon. Then Martin hung up the phone

79
00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:22,879
and then just stood in the driveway looking up at

80
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:29,839
the dark night sky. Soon he saw a very bright

81
00:06:29,959 --> 00:06:36,360
looking star. The star got brighter and brighter until it

82
00:06:36,399 --> 00:06:41,040
eventually became obvious that it wasn't a star at all.

83
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,959
At first, it looked a little like an airplane, but

84
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:50,279
not an airplane. Exactly, But as it got closer it

85
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:56,560
became obvious that it was a spaceship, a spaceship that

86
00:06:56,759 --> 00:07:02,399
some of you may have heard of before. The spaceship

87
00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:08,240
Spaceship landed in the front yard and the back doors

88
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:15,240
opened up. Standing there, staring right back at Martin was

89
00:07:15,279 --> 00:07:22,680
another very familiar character, a little black fire dragonling that

90
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,720
you may know as Magnus from the Cards of Power Universe.

91
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:33,680
Of course, well, I heard you needed some help, Magnus said,

92
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,839
I sure did, buddy, Martin replied, as he climbed aboard

93
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:44,759
the spaceship. Now, the spaceship was a pretty amazing place.

94
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,720
It looked much larger on the inside than the outside

95
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:53,560
for some reason, and it had anything anyone could ever need.

96
00:07:54,360 --> 00:08:00,000
A living room, a kitchen, a play area, a library,

97
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,680
rary bedrooms, and some other mysterious rooms off to the side,

98
00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:09,120
and of course a control center at the front. And

99
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,120
at the very center of that control center was a

100
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:19,279
picture of a little digital face. Welcome. The face said,

101
00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:27,040
I'm spaceship. What can we do to assist you? Well,

102
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:32,360
that's just the thing. My father recently had a knee

103
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,720
replacement surgery, it's a second one, actually, and the kids

104
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,039
were kind of sad that he couldn't play with them

105
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,639
and help them fix stuff, you know, that sort of thing.

106
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,720
I was thinking we could use the two of you, well,

107
00:08:46,919 --> 00:08:52,039
Spaceship your amazing technology, and Magnus some of the magic

108
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,440
cards I asked you to bring, and maybe we could

109
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:01,360
surprise my father by, you know, making him better than

110
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:07,039
he ever has been before. Spaceship and Magnus looked at

111
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,320
each other for a second, and then back at Martin,

112
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:20,480
wherein Magnus responded, yes, I agree, we are indeed in.

113
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:26,639
Spaceship confirmed, and with that the doors of the ship

114
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:32,480
closed and Spaceship flew up off into the air to

115
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:37,559
a little house not too far away, a house Martin

116
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:43,559
had been to pretty recently, his parents' house. Should I

117
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:48,799
send a group of robots to carefully extract your father

118
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:54,399
from the house, Spaceship asked, Uh, Yeah, that would be cool.

119
00:09:55,039 --> 00:09:59,240
Martin responded. A door on the side of the spaceship

120
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,799
suddenly open, and a team of little robots floated right

121
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,159
out of it, carrying what looked to be a stretcher

122
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,799
of some kind. The back door to the ship opened up,

123
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:19,360
and the robots flew out and down towards the house. Luckily,

124
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,360
it was already past the time that Grandma was asleep,

125
00:10:24,039 --> 00:10:29,120
and Grandpa, like usual, could be found sleeping on the couch,

126
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,960
not his final sleep of the night, of course, but

127
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,399
the second sleep he normally took after dinner and not

128
00:10:38,519 --> 00:10:40,960
too long before he'd actually go to bed.

129
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:41,519
Speaker 2: For the whole night.

130
00:10:42,639 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: The robots silently floated into the room, zapped Grandpa with

131
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,960
a special sleep ray, and then carefully lifted him on

132
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:59,080
to the stretcher. Just as silently, they floated up off

133
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:04,240
the ground, out the door, and back up towards the Spaceship.

134
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,000
As they re entered, another door on the side of

135
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,120
the ship opened up. Martin and Magnus followed the robots

136
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,399
with the little stretcher. Inside the room was some sort

137
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:23,000
of medical bay, very high tech looking, with a few

138
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,440
beds laying about and a whole bunch of very advanced

139
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:35,080
medical technology. The robots carefully transferred Grandpa on to another bed,

140
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,200
and then Spaceship's voice appeared on a screen near by.

141
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:47,919
I have developed a very advanced knee schematic. This should

142
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,320
allow him not only to be back on his feet immediately,

143
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:57,120
but also to do things that would have never been

144
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:06,080
possible without these very advanced knees. Huh sounds cool, Martin responded,

145
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,840
and with that the robots that carried Grandpa in got

146
00:12:11,879 --> 00:12:17,360
immediately to work. They moved incredibly quickly and used tools

147
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,279
that well that most people on Earth would never even

148
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:28,279
hear about. Before long, they were completely finished. Instead of

149
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:34,679
two normal looking Grandpa knees, Grandpa now had two very

150
00:12:34,879 --> 00:12:43,279
extraordinary looking robot knees. Now it's my turn, Magnus said.

151
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,440
He asked me to bring a card over, and I

152
00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:52,320
thought this one would be kind of perfect. This is

153
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:58,120
a legendary fixed card. The holder of this card is

154
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:05,080
capable of fixing all most anything at well superhuman speed.

155
00:13:06,399 --> 00:13:09,639
When you told me about your father, I kind of

156
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:16,639
thought this would be perfect. That is perfect, Martin responded.

157
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,360
The little fire dragonling flew over towards the bed where

158
00:13:22,519 --> 00:13:29,360
Grandpa was sitting. From inside his chest somehow, he pulled

159
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,039
out a bright blue card that looked like it was

160
00:13:33,159 --> 00:13:39,000
made of pure energy, and then he placed the card

161
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:46,360
directly on Grandpa's chest. Grandpa's chest began to glow, and

162
00:13:47,039 --> 00:13:53,000
so did the card. Then almost instantly, the card was

163
00:13:53,159 --> 00:13:59,000
sucked right into Grandpa's chest. With all the work done,

164
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:04,399
the robots picked Grandpa up again and returned him to

165
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,759
the couch where he was sleeping. Martin, Magnus, and Spaceship

166
00:14:10,279 --> 00:14:16,159
went back to Martin's house. The next morning, Grandpa woke

167
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,039
up off of the couch where he somehow slept the

168
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,879
whole night. His back hurt just a little bit from

169
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:29,360
staying in one place for so long, but something felt

170
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:34,639
really different about his knees. It was as if, well

171
00:14:34,639 --> 00:14:38,279
it was as if they were the knees of a teenager.

172
00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:44,440
They felt amazing. He looked down and pulled up the

173
00:14:44,519 --> 00:14:52,639
legs of his pants, only to reveal rob knees. How

174
00:14:52,679 --> 00:14:58,840
did he get rob knees? In surprise, Grandpa stood up

175
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,960
off the couch, something he wasn't really supposed to do

176
00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:09,879
right now, and it became apparent that well, that his

177
00:15:10,039 --> 00:15:15,159
knees felt better than ever. He felt strong and powerful,

178
00:15:15,679 --> 00:15:19,720
like he could run one hundred kilometers an hour, which

179
00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:22,639
is about sixty miles if you're listening from the States.

180
00:15:24,039 --> 00:15:29,360
In fact, Grandpa decided to test that theory out. He

181
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,080
ran to the front door, swung it open with gusto,

182
00:15:34,279 --> 00:15:39,279
and ran outside. He started by jogging down the road,

183
00:15:40,159 --> 00:15:44,360
and it felt almost effortless, so he picked up the

184
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:49,360
pace bit by bit by bit, and he found that

185
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:54,600
he could run faster and faster and faster, faster than

186
00:15:54,600 --> 00:16:01,600
he could ever run before, faster even then well your average.

187
00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:06,759
Before he knew it, he'd run no less than ten kilometers.

188
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:15,720
This is amazing, he responded. And not only could he run,

189
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,759
but he felt like he could jump too, and he

190
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:25,480
tried doing just that. Grandpa bent his knees, crouched down

191
00:16:25,559 --> 00:16:29,879
towards the ground, and leapt up with as much power

192
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,679
as he possibly could. Instead of jumping just a little

193
00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:38,200
bit off the ground as he was used to, he

194
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,320
flew way up in the air, high above all of

195
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,480
the trees. And then he realized when you go up,

196
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,279
well you kind of have to go down as well.

197
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:58,519
Grandpa began to fall faster and faster and faster. He

198
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,840
thought about bracing him self from the landing, realizing that

199
00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:06,680
there was nothing he could do to stop it. But

200
00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:11,519
that's when he realized he was stopped, stopped in mid air.

201
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:17,079
He looked down at his knees, and to his surprise,

202
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:24,200
his knees sprung little tiny jets, jets that allowed him

203
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,319
to float up off the ground directly from his knees.

204
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:34,480
A very strange sight. Indeed, not knowing what else to do,

205
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,839
Grandpa kind of panicked for a second and showed it

206
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,039
as loud as he possibly could. Once he was done

207
00:17:43,079 --> 00:17:46,960
with freaking out, though, he got back to figuring out

208
00:17:47,079 --> 00:17:51,640
how to control these new jet knees or whatever they were.

209
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,839
He thought about going down towards the ground, and he

210
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,599
found that as soon as he thought about it, his

211
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:06,720
knees obeyed. He imagined once again himself going down towards

212
00:18:06,759 --> 00:18:10,000
the ground and his knees just kind of let him

213
00:18:10,039 --> 00:18:14,119
do what he asked to do. Then he imagined himself

214
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,119
flying up off the ground and his knees did the

215
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:24,480
same thing. Grandpa flew quickly back towards his house and

216
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,920
landed in his driveway. He had to tell the grandkids

217
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:34,799
about this one. Grandpa quickly opened up the garage and

218
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:39,039
pulled out his keys, but when he saw his car,

219
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,240
something seemed wrong with it. He could just sense that

220
00:18:44,519 --> 00:18:48,039
there was some sort of small issue with the back

221
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:53,079
left tire. He pulled it out of the garage, grabbed

222
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,559
his tools, and quickly got to work fixing the tire.

223
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,759
But after he fixed the tire, well, he kind of

224
00:19:01,799 --> 00:19:08,359
felt like fixing everything and in an absolute flurry of activity,

225
00:19:09,279 --> 00:19:12,799
he started doing things he didn't even know he could do,

226
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:20,559
pulling off wheels, rewiring the car, basically kind of maguy

227
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,000
for ring together jets, and all sorts of other fancy devices.

228
00:19:26,599 --> 00:19:32,960
Before long, Grandpa had transformed his very normal looking car

229
00:19:34,039 --> 00:19:42,039
into a very extraordinary looking car. That's better, Grandpa said,

230
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,279
looking at his handiwork. He climbed in the car seat,

231
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:51,480
started the car up, and then pressed a very special

232
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,160
button he'd just installed. In an instant, the car lifted

233
00:19:56,279 --> 00:20:01,839
up off the ground, the wheels shifted under it, orienting

234
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:08,160
themselves more like little helicopters or jets, and the car

235
00:20:08,319 --> 00:20:14,440
took off into the air. This is amazing, Grandpa said,

236
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,519
as he slammed his foot down on the gas. Now

237
00:20:18,559 --> 00:20:22,400
Grandpa didn't question too much exactly why he could suddenly

238
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:29,160
turn ordinary cars into extraordinary flying cars, but he could

239
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,519
certainly tell that something was different. He considered for a

240
00:20:33,559 --> 00:20:36,480
while that the whole thing might actually be a dream,

241
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:42,079
but when he pinched himself and well felt the normal

242
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,960
pain of pinching himself, he realized that it must be real.

243
00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:52,880
Grandpa flew the car over to his son's house. He

244
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:58,359
carefully and slowly lowered it down into the driveway. The

245
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,599
door to the house opened up up and out of

246
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:06,720
it ran Martin, Oliver, and Charlotte, all staring at the

247
00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:14,920
flying car in awe. Uh Grandpa, is that you, they said,

248
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,599
as the door to the car opened up, and sure

249
00:21:18,759 --> 00:21:26,440
enough Grandpa stepped out. It's me, kids, but I woke

250
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:32,119
up with some kind of a special surprise. Look at this,

251
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,359
Grandpa said, as he pulled up the legs of his pants,

252
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:44,079
displaying his new robot knees to both of the grandchildren. WHOA,

253
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:50,920
that's amazing, Oliver responded, seeing the robotic knees, and not

254
00:21:51,079 --> 00:21:55,119
just that, but I seem to now have some sort

255
00:21:55,160 --> 00:22:00,599
of super human ability to fix things, and he've turned

256
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:08,599
them into other things. Really, Charlotte responded, my bike needs

257
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:14,119
to be fixed. Charlotte ran towards the shed and grabbed

258
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,039
her little red bike. She ran it back over and

259
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,680
placed it in front of Grandpa.

260
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 2: Can you fix it?

261
00:22:22,519 --> 00:22:30,319
Speaker 1: She asked. I can fix anything, Grandpa said. He picked

262
00:22:30,319 --> 00:22:34,640
the bike up in his hands and examined it very carefully.

263
00:22:35,839 --> 00:22:40,680
In fact, I think I can make it better than ever.

264
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:46,039
One second, Grandpa walked to the back of his car,

265
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,640
with the bike. He grabbed his tool box and in

266
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:55,319
an instant he began fixing the bike, making sure every

267
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,319
single part of it was perfectly in tune. But as

268
00:22:59,319 --> 00:23:02,920
he did, it just didn't seem like enough. He had

269
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:08,119
to make the bike better, more advanced, and once again

270
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:14,519
Grandpa started doing things that he barely understood himself. Before long,

271
00:23:15,279 --> 00:23:19,680
he was done and the bike was no longer any

272
00:23:20,039 --> 00:23:24,920
ordinary bike. He passed it back to Charlotte and she

273
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,319
looked at it in awe and now looked like some

274
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:35,480
sort of high tech motorcycle or something like that. She

275
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:40,079
climbed a board and began to press down on the pedals,

276
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,119
but this time, with each pedal forward, the bike moved

277
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,960
at amazing speeds. Charlotte started to zoom around the yard

278
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,759
without any effort at all. Ah, I want to cool

279
00:23:54,839 --> 00:24:00,279
bike like that, Oliver said, disappointed that his sister had

280
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,000
something that he didn't have.

281
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 2: Oh, I think I can help you too, Sun, get

282
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:08,039
your bike.

283
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,519
Speaker 1: Oliver ran to do just that and enthusiastically brought it

284
00:24:13,599 --> 00:24:17,720
back to his grandpa, who, once again, in a flurry

285
00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:21,759
of activity, using knowledge he didn't even know, he had

286
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:29,279
turned it into some sort of superpowered electric bike. Now,

287
00:24:29,559 --> 00:24:35,319
shall we all go for a ride, Grandpa suggested. The

288
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,240
children put on their helmets and carefully clipped them into place.

289
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,920
Then together they began to pedal their bikes and headed

290
00:24:44,039 --> 00:24:47,960
down the road. They found that they could move faster

291
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:53,359
than ever before on these things. We have to tell Grandpa,

292
00:24:53,759 --> 00:24:57,640
this is amazing, Oliver said to Charlotte.

293
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 2: You don't have.

294
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:06,039
Speaker 1: To tell him anything. Grandpa responded, I'm right here with you. Man,

295
00:25:06,079 --> 00:25:11,440
to their amazement, he was. Grandpa was just running along

296
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,480
the road easily keeping pace with the two children. His

297
00:25:16,839 --> 00:25:22,640
rowbon knees were something pretty powerful. Oh and I forgot

298
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,359
to mention, I added something a little bit special to

299
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:31,680
your bikes. See that red button there, Well, press it,

300
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,880
Grandpa said. Oliver and Charlotte came to a stop with

301
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,920
their bikes, and then they did as Grandpa said, pressing

302
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,000
the new red button. Their bikes immediately shot up into

303
00:25:46,039 --> 00:25:50,960
the air, floating a few feet above the ground. Their

304
00:25:51,039 --> 00:25:56,519
tires shifted angles, facing down towards the ground like little

305
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:02,519
tiny propellers, and then they began to spin around. You

306
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:10,880
made us flying bikes, Oliver said, in uh, well, in

307
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:18,200
complete shock and excitement. And with that, Oliver and Charlotte

308
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,920
took off into the air, flying high above the little

309
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:28,960
small town, above all the trees and forests and lakes nearby,

310
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:35,839
and Grandpa, using his special rocket powered knees or whatever

311
00:26:36,079 --> 00:26:40,880
they were, followed behind them. The three of them spent

312
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:45,240
the rest of the afternoon like that, flying from place

313
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:47,920
to place and getting the hang of their new and

314
00:26:48,039 --> 00:26:53,559
improved bikes. But before long the sun started to set

315
00:26:54,319 --> 00:26:59,079
and Grandpa decided it was time to return home. He

316
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,799
led the children and back over top of the huge

317
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:09,039
forests and lakes back to their little house just outside

318
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,240
the small town where they lived. The two of them

319
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:19,079
carefully landed their hover bikes or whatever they were, and

320
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,920
walked them over towards the shed where they stored them

321
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:29,000
for future use. Thanks, Grandpa, they both said. Men Together,

322
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,519
they ran over and gave Grandpa one of the best

323
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:39,680
hugs you've ever seen. No problem, Grandpa responded, with my

324
00:27:40,079 --> 00:27:45,839
new found knees and my new found fixing ability, I

325
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:52,920
should be able to do just about anything. Good night, kids.

326
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:59,319
Grandpa climbed back inside his flying car. The car began

327
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:03,559
to hover and then blasted off into the air to

328
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:10,519
who knows where. Oliver and Charlotte on the other hand, well,

329
00:28:10,799 --> 00:28:15,160
they were pretty tired. The two of them once again

330
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:20,880
brushed their teeth, put on their pajamas, and climbed into

331
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:28,319
their beds. They closed their eyes and they just began

332
00:28:28,599 --> 00:28:35,880
to focus on their breath, noticing as it rose and fell,

333
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,119
and with each breath they sank a little bit deeper

334
00:28:42,279 --> 00:28:48,599
into their mattress, and their mind wandered off a little

335
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:57,720
bit further towards sleep. Good night everyone. It had been

336
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:02,880
a while since Grandpa Rodees or Dawn as his friends

337
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:07,119
tended to call him, had received his first major upgrade.

338
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:13,559
With the help of a friendly spaceship and a strange

339
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:19,799
magical dragon from another universe, Grandpa Robes got one of

340
00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:24,160
the greatest robotic knee replacements the world had ever seen,

341
00:29:25,359 --> 00:29:29,680
allowing him to run faster than he ever could, jump

342
00:29:29,799 --> 00:29:35,279
higher than he ever imagined, and even fly. On top

343
00:29:35,359 --> 00:29:40,039
of that, a magical card gifted to him by Magnus

344
00:29:40,359 --> 00:29:45,920
the Dragon granted him the ability to fix almost anything

345
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,279
and in vent t almost anything he could think of.

346
00:29:52,039 --> 00:29:57,519
Since then, Grandpa had worked on many projects, upgrading his

347
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,039
flying car into a flying true uck, then generally having

348
00:30:02,079 --> 00:30:08,160
a good time. These days, Grandpa Robones could keep up

349
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,839
with pretty much anyone. The only issue was that most

350
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,000
of his friends could no longer keep up with him,

351
00:30:17,039 --> 00:30:21,519
and that's where our story comes into play. Today, Grandpa

352
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:26,119
Robonese decided to fly over to his friend Ken's house

353
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:32,160
inside his newly equipped flying truck. Of course, when he

354
00:30:32,279 --> 00:30:35,839
landed in front of Ken's driveway, he walked up to

355
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:41,400
the door and knocked a few times, but no one

356
00:30:41,519 --> 00:30:46,200
came to answer. He listened carefully and thought he heard

357
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:52,480
a faint, distant yell from inside, someone calling for help.

358
00:30:53,720 --> 00:31:00,119
Without hesitation, Grandpa Robonese stepped back and kicked the door

359
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:04,680
with all of his might, all of his robotic might.

360
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,559
Thanks to his robotic leg strength, the door flew straight

361
00:31:10,599 --> 00:31:13,160
off the hinges and slammed into the wall on the

362
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,039
other side, something he would obviously have to fix later.

363
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,960
As soon as he got inside, he could hear Ken

364
00:31:22,079 --> 00:31:26,920
calling more clearly. The pain in Ken's voice made Grandpa

365
00:31:27,079 --> 00:31:31,000
Robonese panic just a little as he rushed to find

366
00:31:31,039 --> 00:31:35,480
his friend sprawled out on the floor. Ken had fallen

367
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:40,640
and he couldn't get up. Grandpa quickly called for an

368
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:46,799
ambulance and help arrived before too long. However, what Grandpa

369
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:52,480
Robonees didn't realize was that in his panic, he'd accidentally

370
00:31:52,559 --> 00:31:57,720
triggered a signal built into his robotic knee replacement, one

371
00:31:57,759 --> 00:32:02,559
that called a very special space for help, one that

372
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,839
I'm sure many of you have heard of before. After

373
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,960
making sure Ken got to the hospital safely, and after

374
00:32:11,079 --> 00:32:14,000
talking to the doctors who were pretty sure Ken was

375
00:32:14,039 --> 00:32:19,119
gonna need a hip replacement, Grandpa Rowbones left the hospital

376
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:24,400
and sat down on a bench in the park to think. Suddenly,

377
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,960
he heard a strange sound, like something breaking through the

378
00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:34,559
atmosphere above him, and just as suddenly he found a

379
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:41,519
tiny toy sized spaceship floating right in front of his head. Hello,

380
00:32:42,039 --> 00:32:46,160
my name is Spaceship, the little craft said in a

381
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:52,079
cheerful voice. My systems indicate you were in trouble. Is

382
00:32:52,279 --> 00:32:59,839
everything okay? Strangely, unfazed by the floating sentient spaceship and

383
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:06,319
in front of him, Grandpa robo Knees replied, I guess so.

384
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:10,000
Rather than the fact that all of my friends are

385
00:33:10,079 --> 00:33:17,039
getting older and older, one of my best friends can

386
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:23,759
just fell and now he needs a hip replacement. My

387
00:33:24,039 --> 00:33:27,680
only wish they could be in as good a shape

388
00:33:27,759 --> 00:33:32,279
as I am, so we could still hang out and

389
00:33:33,039 --> 00:33:37,799
do the things we used to do together. That is

390
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:43,640
an excellent idea, Spaceship said, I may be able to help.

391
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:48,240
After all, I was the one with a little help.

392
00:33:48,279 --> 00:33:52,480
Of course, who gave you your robotic knee replacement in

393
00:33:52,599 --> 00:33:59,839
the first place? You were, Grandpa said, astonished, I always

394
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:05,640
wondered who did that? Well, thank you, Thank you so much.

395
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:11,360
Do you think you could help my friends too? I

396
00:34:11,559 --> 00:34:17,719
believe that should be possible, Spaceship replied. With your ability

397
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,320
to fix things and my medical knowledge, nothing should be

398
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,480
beyond our reach. Would you like to come aboard to

399
00:34:26,559 --> 00:34:34,840
discuss the details, sure, Grandpa Robo Knees replied, though he

400
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,239
wasn't quite sure how he was gonna fit aboard a

401
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:43,480
tiny toy spaceship. But that is when the tiny ship

402
00:34:43,599 --> 00:34:47,280
floated over in front of him and began to glow

403
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:53,079
a bright blue. It grew larger and larger until it

404
00:34:53,199 --> 00:34:57,679
was the size of a full spaceship. The back hatch

405
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:05,639
opened and Grandpa Robonees walked inside. He was amazed. There

406
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,840
was a full sized living room, a fully stocked kitchen,

407
00:35:10,559 --> 00:35:14,440
a little play area with books, and at the front,

408
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,679
a command center with two seats and a giant screen.

409
00:35:19,679 --> 00:35:25,480
Welcome to my ship, Spaceship said. The ship took off

410
00:35:25,599 --> 00:35:30,719
into the sky. As Grandpa Robonese and Spaceship began planning,

411
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,199
they talked first about Ken, who would need a new hip,

412
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,159
and then about their good friend Gary, who was stuck

413
00:35:40,199 --> 00:35:45,000
in a wheelchair being pushed around by a nurse. A

414
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:48,320
nice nurse, but still it wasn't the same as having

415
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:53,920
your own freedom. Together, they started to design all sorts

416
00:35:53,920 --> 00:36:00,159
of solutions. For Ken, they imagined a mechanical exoskille. It's

417
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:03,880
an implant that would fold out of his hip, wrap

418
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,719
around his legs and arms, and assist with running, lifting

419
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,320
heavy things, and a few extra gadgets built in for

420
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:18,880
self defense. Naturally, for Gary, they decided that making his

421
00:36:19,039 --> 00:36:24,039
wheelchair fly would be a great start. No more ramps,

422
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:28,280
no more stairs. Then, of course, they got a little

423
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:33,840
carried away. They added weapons, systems, shields, and well pretty

424
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:39,400
much every gadget they could come up with. Spaceship somehow

425
00:36:39,519 --> 00:36:44,199
magically created a giant workshop in the back of the ship,

426
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:49,119
filled with every tool Grandpa rob Needs could possibly need.

427
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:55,639
With Spaceship three D printing parts and Grandpa assembling them,

428
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,199
it didn't take long to finish the new exoskeleton and

429
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:05,400
hover chair. Now it was time to deliver the upgrades.

430
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,480
Late that night, Spaceship, who for some reason could shrink

431
00:37:10,559 --> 00:37:15,000
down to the size of a fly with Grandpa Robones inside,

432
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:20,480
snuck into the hospital. They grew just large enough for

433
00:37:20,559 --> 00:37:23,880
a team of robots to snatch Ken from the hospital

434
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,679
room and place him aboard the ship. They got to

435
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:35,199
work immediately. Once the exoskeleton implant was completed. They woke

436
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:43,960
Ken up. What where am I? Ken asked, groggly. Don't worry, Ken,

437
00:37:44,519 --> 00:37:51,760
Grandpa Robones said warmly, Everything is okay. We've just done

438
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:59,159
a little upgrading. Now try to stand up. Ken swung

439
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:03,159
his legs the side of the bed, and to his surprise,

440
00:38:04,039 --> 00:38:11,679
he stood up easily. Wow, he said, this hip is great.

441
00:38:12,559 --> 00:38:17,719
I feel better than ever where. Just wait till you

442
00:38:18,039 --> 00:38:23,400
say the secret phrase. Grandpa row Bones grinned.

443
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:29,119
Speaker 2: To ies, saying, jerryatric Justice.

444
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:34,760
Speaker 1: Ken raised an eyebrow. What is this some kind of joke,

445
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:41,880
No joke at all, Grandpa said, so, Ken, slightly amused,

446
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:51,199
said it proudly, Jeriatric Justice. Suddenly, little mechanical gadgets shot

447
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,960
out of his hips, wrapping down his legs and up

448
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,760
across his body and arms, forming into a full exo

449
00:39:00,119 --> 00:39:09,800
skeleton suit. WHOA Ken said, I feel so powerful. Spaceship

450
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:14,079
landed in front of an open field, allowing Ken to

451
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:20,320
test out his powers. Ken started by running and soon

452
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,960
realized he could run faster than he ever had before.

453
00:39:25,079 --> 00:39:30,199
Then he tried jumping, discovering he could jump hundreds of

454
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:34,760
feet into the air. Next, he decided to try out

455
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,760
his strength by picking up some stones, which were far

456
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,000
too easy. He moved on to some large boulders that

457
00:39:43,079 --> 00:39:47,440
were lining the park and had no trouble picking them

458
00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:52,000
up either. Then he grabbed a hold of the trunk

459
00:39:52,039 --> 00:39:56,079
of a tree and ripped it straight out of the ground,

460
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:02,920
something he later felt bad about. After they were done

461
00:40:03,039 --> 00:40:08,880
testing Ken's new powers, they flew to Gary's house. They

462
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:14,599
knocked on the door and the kind nurse opened it up. Gary,

463
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:21,440
We've brought you a present, he announced. The hoverchair floated

464
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:28,239
in behind him for me. Gary asked his eyes wide

465
00:40:29,159 --> 00:40:35,239
for you, Grandpa, Roebonese said. They helped Gary into the

466
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:40,280
hoverchair and taught him the controls. Soon Gary was zipping

467
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,920
around in circles, flying up and down and laughing like

468
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:51,440
a little kid. Well, Grandpa Roebonese said, I guess was

469
00:40:51,599 --> 00:40:58,159
some sort of justice squad. Now, yeah, Ken said the

470
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:06,000
Geriatric Justice Squad, And with that the team was officially born.

471
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:12,159
Their first mission didn't come from some sort of dramatic

472
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:16,559
signal in the sky or a little red phone that

473
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:21,800
was connected directly to the Commissioner's office. It came from

474
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:27,400
a phone call their friend, Mabel, it seems, had fallen

475
00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:33,400
victim to a scam, tricked into buying Amazon gift cards

476
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:38,440
for criminals posing as her grandson. Stuck in jail, she

477
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:45,360
lost all of her money. This is a travesty, Grandpa

478
00:41:45,519 --> 00:41:51,960
Roebonese declared. We need to do something I would like

479
00:41:52,079 --> 00:41:56,840
to help. Spaceship said, but I have another mission to

480
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:03,280
attend to. However, I track the scammer's location. Here, take

481
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:09,039
this map. Spaceship handed them a little paper map marked

482
00:42:09,639 --> 00:42:18,159
scammers headquarters. Thank you, Spaceship, they said. Spaceship zoomed off

483
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:23,880
into space once again, leaving the Geriatric Justice Squad to

484
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:29,400
handle things without Spaceship to ride inside. The three of

485
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:33,800
them loaded into the flying truck, putting Gary in the back,

486
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:39,880
of course, and blasted off into the sky. They flew

487
00:42:40,159 --> 00:42:45,440
high above the clouds across oceans and over top of

488
00:42:45,599 --> 00:42:52,320
countries until they reached the scammer's headquarters, a shady looking

489
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:57,960
office building in a very crowded city. Landing in the

490
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:04,159
parking lot, they marched inside. At the reception desk, a

491
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:10,800
woman smiled, hellou, can I help you well? Here for

492
00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:17,960
the scammers, Grandpa Rowbones said, scammers. We don't have any

493
00:43:18,159 --> 00:43:26,119
scammers here, she insisted. Oh no, Grandpa Roebonese said, pointing

494
00:43:26,159 --> 00:43:32,639
to a door labeled scam Room. What's behind there?

495
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:33,159
Speaker 2: Then?

496
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: Oh? That no, that's totally just sort of like an

497
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,039
inside joke we have. There's no scammers through that room,

498
00:43:42,559 --> 00:43:48,519
the receptionist assured him, But Grandpa Robonese wasn't buying it.

499
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:53,400
He stormed over and kicked the door open with all

500
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:59,400
of his robotic might. Inside was a room absolutely full

501
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:05,360
of scam all talking on phones, working on computers, and

502
00:44:05,519 --> 00:44:12,239
clearly trying to trick people. Hey you, Grandpa robones shouted,

503
00:44:13,079 --> 00:44:19,559
you're scamming days ah rova. The scammers stopped what they

504
00:44:19,599 --> 00:44:25,679
were doing, looked at the three old men, and then

505
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:31,679
they all broke out laughing hysterically. Oh you gonna do,

506
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:38,039
old man, one sneered, beat us up with your old broom.

507
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:45,480
Without a word, Grandpa Rowbones rushed to a computer. Ken

508
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:50,679
used his exoskeleton to restrain one of the scammers while

509
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:56,280
Grandpa hacked into their systems. Soon every computer in the

510
00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:02,360
room was counting down from two minutes. If my friend's

511
00:45:02,559 --> 00:45:08,960
money isn't returned by the time this hits zero, Grandpa said,

512
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:15,320
all of your information goes public and your bank account

513
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:22,119
gets emptied into the world's worst charity anyone could ever imagine.

514
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,239
The scammer started to panic. None of them were sure

515
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:30,639
what the world's worst charity was, but none of them

516
00:45:30,679 --> 00:45:34,679
wanted to give money to charity at all. Unsure of

517
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:42,159
what else to do, they attacked. Luckily, the cheriatric justice

518
00:45:42,199 --> 00:45:49,239
squad was ready. Grandpa roe Bones darted forward with robotic speed,

519
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,320
flipping one scammer over his shoulder and sending him flying

520
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:59,360
into a copier machine. He unleashed spinning kicks that sent

521
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:05,800
others brawling, his mechanical knees glowing with each impact. Ken

522
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:12,039
once again activated his exoskeleton, metal bracing his body, and

523
00:46:12,119 --> 00:46:16,920
he bulldozed into a group of scammers, lifting one in

524
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,840
each hand like toy dolls and tossing them into a pile.

525
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:26,159
Gary spun in the air with his hover chair, unleashing

526
00:46:26,199 --> 00:46:31,519
an arsenal of gadgets. A water cannon blasted scammers into

527
00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:36,000
the wall of freeze, Ray locked others in blocks of ice,

528
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:41,320
and a grappling hook swung down from the ceiling, scooping

529
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:46,079
up an unlucky scammer like a claw machine prize. More

530
00:46:46,199 --> 00:46:52,440
scammers charged, but Gary's hoverchair deployed a mini shield, bouncing

531
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:58,480
them back like rubber balls. Grandpa Robo Knees vaulted over desks,

532
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,199
hurling a coffee pot that exploded into a cloud of

533
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,880
hot TEA Ken picked up an entire office desk and

534
00:47:07,039 --> 00:47:11,519
used it like a battering ram. One scammer tried sneaking

535
00:47:11,599 --> 00:47:15,639
up behind them, only for Gary to fire a sticky

536
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,639
net that wrapped the attacker like a fly in a

537
00:47:18,679 --> 00:47:22,960
spider's web. It wasn't long before the scammers were either

538
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:29,079
knocked out, frozen, tied up, or just plain cowering in fear.

539
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:35,719
And then the countdown on the computers hit zero. Well,

540
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:41,000
what happens now, Ken asked, does all the money get

541
00:47:41,119 --> 00:47:47,559
transferred to that charity? Grandpa Robees chuckled Hi, who was

542
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:52,440
just bluffing about that all I actually did was start

543
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,760
a time a counting down on all of the computers.

544
00:47:56,559 --> 00:48:01,239
Nothing wheally happens when it hit zero, but it clearly

545
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:05,679
got them working. Now, with a little more time, I

546
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:11,280
may actually be able to reverse things, Grandpa Robonese said.

547
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:16,800
He sat down on the computer and furiously started hitting

548
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:24,280
all sorts of different buttons, tracing scam after scam, collecting

549
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,519
money and returning it to as many people as he

550
00:48:28,639 --> 00:48:34,440
possibly could. With the job done, the geriatric Justice Squad

551
00:48:34,679 --> 00:48:41,079
called the police and headed back outside to Grandpa Robonese

552
00:48:41,199 --> 00:48:47,079
flying truck. The truck hovered up into the air, the

553
00:48:47,199 --> 00:48:53,519
tires folded in underneath it, and once again they blasted

554
00:48:53,639 --> 00:48:59,719
off into the sky, high above the clouds, passing quickly

555
00:49:00,079 --> 00:49:07,960
over different countries, across the ocean and back home. Grandpa

556
00:49:08,159 --> 00:49:15,000
rob Knees dropped off Ken first and then Gary, before

557
00:49:15,119 --> 00:49:20,679
eventually returning to his own home. He carefully landed the

558
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:27,920
truck in the driveway, walked inside all the way whistling.

559
00:49:29,159 --> 00:49:33,920
Having his friends be able to participate in an adventure

560
00:49:34,199 --> 00:49:39,320
like that really had his spirits up. That being said,

561
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:45,079
he was feeling pretty tired. Grandpa climbed into the nearest

562
00:49:45,199 --> 00:49:49,599
bed he could find, pulled the covers up to his chin,

563
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:56,679
and allowed his head to hit the pillow. With each breath,

564
00:49:57,679 --> 00:50:01,360
he released a little more tension, and from his muscles,

565
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:08,039
his body sank down deeper and deeper into the mattress,

566
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,960
and he allowed his mind to wander off to dreams

567
00:50:15,119 --> 00:52:02,559
of new things and new geriatric justice to come. Good night, everyone,
