Synopsis:
A news report reaches Hero Hotline, alerting the team that a school bus has been hijacked by a terrorist group. Microwavabelle's children are on board. She wants to rush out to help them, but Harry does not want to escalate the situation by sending in super-heroes. Meanwhile, Voice-Over searches for a missing client that may have been abducted by aliens, and Stretch is assigned to fetch a cat from a tree. Eventually, Microwavabelle is so concerned about her children that she heads out to rescue them. Diamondette, Private Eyes, and Mister Muscle follow. While Microwavabelle distracts the hijackers, the other heroes get the children to safety. The relieved mother then takes the rest of the day off to spend with her children.
