[object approaching]
Ah!
[wailing]
JAMES: Can you repeat that?
I swear you said "beekeepers".
They look like that,
but with flying vans and pretty impressive looking tech!
They were robbing a biotech warehouse, I was nearby.
Just stop. You're making this up. Beekeepers?
[laser guns blasting] With lasers.
[suspenseful music]
[♪♪♪]
What is that? A smoke grenade?
Wait It's not smoke!
These are magnetized nano-particles!
My sensors are down! I'm flying blind!
Switch to visual!
Ah, that's better.
Man, who are these guys?
This stuff is...
Uh, oh.
Tony?
I I'm okay. I think.
They hit me but nothing happened, the armor must...
Waaah!
Uh, Tony? What are you doing?
Whatever they hit me with, gravity isn't affecting me!
Okay, I'm slowing down
it must be temporary
Rhodey?
[computer] Communications systems down.
Error. System malfunctioning.
Rhodey, can you hear me?
The armor went dead, their gravity blaster...
Oh... Gravity.
This is going to hurt.
Tony?
Can your hear me?
Come on!
Reboot, you stupid piece of junk!
Welcome to the Iron Man software version 3.7.
The system encountered an error and is now rebooting.
Please wait.
[alarm beeping]
Aaahhh!
Reboot successful.
[system startup sound]
Tony
[metal creaking]
I have to change that music.

TONY: Seriously, laser cannons?
Anti-tech magnetic nano-grenades?
A gravity blaster!
They must be like a group of evil-scientists
action-combat-beekeepers or something.
You're mad cause you got out-teched.
I did not! They just took me off guard, that's all.
I have to figure what they wanted at that place,
and and
Rhodey?
Hello? I get shot into space and you're not listening?
Great. That's just great, and
[conversations]
Where are we?
It's called the gym, super genius.
The job fair's today.
You know that thing my mom's mentioned a thousand times?
Why do you need a job for? Lunch money?
Seriously, I can loan you some money.
I'm rich, you know.
Ha ha. Funny.
No, she thinks having a job teaches responsibility.
She doesn't know the baggage to have you as a best friend.
-Guys! -Waah!
SHIELD has a booth here!
Can you believe it?
I could be an agent, and arrest people all over the world!
And I'd get a jetpack!
You guys are nuts
In two years, you can both come work for me.
You can have Stane's job after I fire him.
Wow! How does it feel to be the center of your own universe?
No kidding, arrogant much?
SHIELD would give me a jetpack.
Mister Stark?
Uh, hi, Principal Nara.
I haven't skipped any more classes.
No, no, Tony
I need a favor.
We have a new student transferring in.
I'd like you to show them around.
Really?
I've been here for a few weeks.
-James or Happy would be better. -She requested you.
[sensual music]
Miss Stane says the two of you go way back.
Uh, if you want, I'll show her around.
You know, as a favor to you.
Ow!
She's up to something. She has to be, right?
It can't be a coincidence. Why would...
Want to enroll here?
Why else?
To be closer to you.
No, seriously.
I am serious!
You and your dad were always nice to me and my dad.
Her dad's totally evil, remember?
Apple? Tree? Hello?
[coughing] Jealous.
Whoa!
That's why I'm here, but what about you?
-You don't belong here, Tony. -I agree, young lady.
My name is Basil Sandhurst, Mister Stark,
and I'd like to talk to you about your future.
Sorry. Not really looking for a job.
How did you know who Tony was?
I work for a group called A.I.M.,
The Advanced Idea Mechanics.
We're a scientific think tank
and we've had our eye on Mister Stark for some time.
Really?
Your father was a great man, but A.I.M.
is well aware that you were the brains
behind a large part of Stark International's work.
Just as we're aware that you can't take over Stark
until you turn 18.
You don't belong in high school.
You can't be challenged here, you'll stagnate.
A.I.M. can give you staff, labs, resources, funding,
anything you want.
Just out of, you know, curiosity,
what is A.I.M. working on?
[beeping] Tell me what you see.
[device buzzing]
Human machine interface.
Very good.
A.I.M. is about to allow
the human nervous system to control machines.
We have the biology down.
We need help with mechanics.
We need your help.
I don't know
Before you decide, let me leave you with these
The Controller Discs.
If you can make these work,
you'll change the world, Tony. Think about it.
My contact information is inside.
Now if you'll excuse me
You're leaving? The job fair just started.
I told you.
We came here for you, Tony.
Only you.
It's not just me.
Everyone knows you don't belong here.
[police sirens]
Pretty impressive.
I heard the A.I.M. guy wouldn't talk to the Erwin twins,
and they're the Academy's geniuses.
I guess there's genius and there's Tony Stark genius.
Seriously, what this tech could do for the Iron Man armor...
Imagine if I could control it just by thinking.
I'd be unstoppable!
I don't know, man. You've got plenty going on already.
Remember: "Lose your company if you don't focus on school".
[sighing] Yeah, I know. But
But what?
It felt good to have someone treat me the way my dad did.
[melancholic music]
[♪♪♪]
[beep]
[phone ringing]
TONY: Okay I'm in.
Tony you've made the right decision.
Think harder!
I think I'm going to beat you up.
We've been at this all morning.
Wait! Try to make the phone ring.
The controller disc should transmit to any machine.
Maybe turn off the lights. We need to start small.
Just pick something and focus!
You owe me for this.
I'm trying the lights now.
Are you concentrating?
Yes!
Can you concentrate more?
Okay, that's it. I'm done.
That's a good idea.
You look like you're about to pop.
-What? -Something's wrong.
I've been able to reverse engineer
most of what A.I.M.'s done,
but there's some disc components I can't figure out.
[sigh]
I must go back to the school labs.
I left some components there.
[phone ringing]
Whoa did I just do that with my brain?
Incoming call from: Whitney Stane.
TONY: No it's her.
And every time I turn around,
Whitney's right there. It's like she's my shadow.
She comes to the house, to the labs here in school.
No sign of her.
You're clear.
There you are! You keep disappearing.
[whispering] Help me!
What's with those two? It's like you have groupies.
A.I.M. is a think tank of elite super-scientists
...not petty thieves!
Look, we needed that biotech research--
And worse, you gave A.I.M. technology to a child?
Have you lost your mind?
Have you read Tony Stark's file?
He's smarter than every one of your men here combined!
He can crack the Controller Disc.
We brought you in for MODOC.
But once the Controller Discs work,
A.I.M. can just take everything they need!
Do not question me!
The Controller project is over.
We're getting intermittent signal
from a Controller Disc. What were the orders?
Proceed with the project. Keep monitoring Stark.
Stark do you want me to hurt you?
Is that why you're doing this?
What's your problem, Gene Khan? Help a friend out.
Tony's doing another month of homework for you?
I'm getting the best grades of my life!
That's worth giving up a Saturday.
Ahem.
So once I activate the discs,
I want you all to concentrate on the lights.
Imagine them turning off.
Wow, you Tomorrow Academy kids really know how to have fun.
Nice accessories, everyone. Very chic.
Is it the A.I.M. thing? Aren't you done with that yet?
You could help.
I'm trying the discs on as many brainwaves as possible.
You're assuming she has a brain.
I'll pass, Tony. I don't jump through hoops for anyone,
unlike your pet here.
Oh!
You so did not just call me his pet!
Whoa, okay!
Let's give this a try.
Everyone close your eyes, concentrate.
Now.
[mysterious music]
[electronic signals]
Sir, the Controller Discs are active!
I can't believe it. He already did it!
Sandhurst!
I gave you a direct order and you defy me?
You'll pay for that decision with your life.
But Stark did it.
The discs are active! Surely you can see--
If the discs are working, prove it.
Use the Controller helmet, bring them.
What? Why?
We've only begun to tap Stark's potential!
Why alert him to--
It's not a request.
[helmet buzzing]
Yes, Supreme.
Uh?
Yes, I am concentrating...
on what I'm going to do to you for...
[helmet buzzing] Gene?
Guys? Are you okay?
Hello?
Okay. That's not supposed to happen.
-Maybe you broke them. -No, I don't think so.
[tense music]
It's like the signal got reversed.
The machine is influencing the biology,
not the other way around.
Very astute, Stark.
[scream]
[pain grunt]
Tony! [grunt]
Raaa!
[grunts]
Uh!
Uh! Ah!
A.I.M. thanks you for work.
A.I.M.? Rhodey, what are you
Oh, no.
Sandhurst?
You're a brilliant young man, Tony.
I'd say you have a bright future ahead of you,
but sadly, you don't.
Uh!
Let's get out of here! Now!
Wait, I have to get my notes. Find a way to stop this.
-My backpack! I have to get-- -Come on!
[tense music]
[♪♪♪]
We'll call the police and--
Oh, nuts.
There's no way out, Stark.
[group] There's no way out, Stark.
SANDHURST: Everything is under my control.
[group] Everything is under my control.
Okay. Those outfits are ridiculous.
You should be more concerned about our weapons, Miss Stane.
[pain grunt]
Ah!
[tense music]
Sir?
This is such a waste.
Find the boy's lab, take everything.
Then burn this place down.
I'll have my pawns deal with Stark and the girl.
[grunt]
Oh, I knew I should have brought my purse!
Are you serious? We're chased by evil scientists.
You worry about your purse?
You wanted your backpack.
And besides, it's an expensive purse.
Uh This way! I know a shortcut.
Oh? Ah!
Tony! This isn't
What are you doing?
Tony!
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps approaching]
[guns cocking]
[glass shattering]
Well, that was dumb.
I thought he was a genius.
[metal clinking]
[suspenseful music]
Got it. Let's torch this place and...
Robbing high schools?
Pretty sad.
Did the city's babies run out of candy?
[pain grunts]
Iron Man
Wonderful.
As if this wasn't going to be complicated enough.
[device beeping]
Do you have the discs?
Yes and no.
We have them, but Iron Man's here.
What? I don't care what it takes!
You recover A.I.M.'s technology, do you hear me?
-Get-- -Oops. Lost signal.
[electricity crackling]
Aaahhh!
[screams]
[guns cocking]
Not this time.
-So much for being out-teched. -Very impressive, Iron Man.
I don't know how you tracked us down,
but you'd better be careful.
I'd hate to see innocent children
get hurt with all this fighting.
Let them go right now, mister.
Ha! I'll consider that.
And please, Iron Man
Call me the Controller.
I'm here for my property.
Nothing you need to concern yourself with.
If you leave now, no one gets hurt.
I don't think so.
[machinery failure]
[computer beeping]
The files, Controller.
Excellent.
Now, Iron Man
We can do this the hard way, or the easy way.
Ah! [fall]
I vote for the hard way.
Raaa!
[pain grunts]
Huh nice moves.
Best kickboxing lessons daddy's money can buy.
Oh, and your guy's getting away.
[suspenseful music]
[pain grunts]
You've left yourself open, Iron Man.
Not so smart.
What did you hope to achieve?
This.
No!
[ground impact]
[epic music]
What? Whitney?
What happened?
How did you...
Where are the beekeeper guys?
I don't know. Someone locked me in a closet?
I found your friends doing their zombie thing.
I already called the police.
The discs on the kids were fried
when the Controller helmet was damaged,
which will take months to fix.
Iron Man destroyed the rest of the prototypes
as well as Stark's research.
Can you think of a reason that I shouldn't destroy you?
Because you need me for the MODOC mental interface.
No more distractions, you have my word.
You can trust me.
[device beeping]
[police sirens]
Really?
Everyone was gone by the time you got out of the closet?
Yes for the hundredth time. Why don't you believe me?
Because I can always tell when you're lying.
Whatever, Tony.
Look, I don't care what happened yesterday.
I want to know what you're really doing here.
Truth?
My father sent me to spy on you.
And you agreed?
Yes
But not for him.
I came here for my own reasons.
