The family were now riding in a limo on their way back to their house with Rick.

"We've frozen all of Syndrome's assets. If he even sneezes, we'll be there with a hankie and a pair of handcuffs. The people of this country are indebted to you." Rick said.

"Does this means we can come out of hiding?" Bob asked.

"Let the politicians figure that one out. I've been asked to assure you we'll take care of everything else. You did good Bob."

Helen was using the limo phone to call the house, and was listening to all the messages Kari had left.

"Hi, this is Kari. I have a question about Jack-Jack..."

"Hey, you wearing your hair back." Bob told Vince.

"Oh, yeah. I just...yeah."

"It looks good."

Vince smiled. "Thanks dad."

(Y/n) nudged Vince's shoulder and gave him a 'I told you so' look.

"That was so cool when you threw that car!" Dash exclaimed.

"Not as cool as you running on water." Bob said.

"Hey mom! That was sweet when you snagged that bad guy with your arm and whiplashed him into the other guy."

"Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to listen to messages honey."

"Hi Mrs. Parr it's me. Jack-Jack's still fine but weird things are happening."

"Jack-Jack's still fine, but I'm getting really weirded out! Ah! When are you coming back?!"

"...when you aced those guys that tried to kill us! That was the best vacation ever!" Dash fell back against the seat. "I love our family."

"I'm not fine Mrs. Parr! Ah! Put that down! Stop it! You need to call me! I need help Mrs. Parr!"

"Bob, listen to these messages." Helen said.

"Call the police, or someone!"

"Hi, this is Kari. Sorry for freaking out, but your baby has special needs. Anyway, thanks for sending a replacement..."

"Replacement? I didn't call a replacement!" Helen told Bob.

Luckily, they had pulled up to their house so they all rushed out of the car and into the house to see Syndrome holding a sleeping Jack-Jack.

Syndrome used his zero point energy to freeze them all.

"Shh! The baby is sleeping!" He mocked. "You took away my future. I'm simply returning the favor. Oh, don't worry I'll be a good mentor. Supportive, encouraging. Everything you weren't! And in time, who knows, he might make a good sidekick."

Syndrome threw them all to the side and blew a hole in the ceiling and flew out.

"He's getting away, Bob! We have to do something now."

...

At this point, Jack-Jack was awake and crying loudly, reaching for his family. Jack-Jack turned to face Syndrome and lit himself on fire.

Syndrome gasped in shock, and Jack-Jack turned into metal and became really heavy. Syndrome struggled to fly back up.

Jack-Jack then started violently shaking and Syndrome's eyes widened.

...

"Something's happening, what's happening?" Helen asked.
