 The video opens to Peter sitting on a couch in the living room.

"Hey guys, welcome back to the Ironfam!" he says brightly. "Everyone else was busy today, so it's just Harley and I."

He lifts the camera to show Harley standing in the kitchen eating an apple. He salutes the camera.

"Evening, Ironfam," he says.

Peter lowers the camera again. "So," he says. "Today we've decided we're gonna prank Dad."

Harley plops down onto the couch beside Peter. "We're gonna convince him we got robbed," he informs us.

Neither of them has moved.

"So I already said everyone else was busy," Peter says. "But they're actually coming by later, but we have to do this now because we're the only ones here right now but they're all coming back in like, twenty minutes, so we couldn't wait for everyone else."

The camera has been set up, giving us a view of the living room and part of the kitchen behind them.

"So what we're gonna do," Peter says, backing away from the camera slightly. "Is make a big mess of this common area. We're gonna hide a couple things like Mom's laptop, Dad's tablet, all that stuff so it looks like valuables were taken. We'll dump the trash can, maybe break some dishes, all that good stuff."

"Can I break the dishes?" Harley asks. "I've always wanted to just throw a bunch of plates on the ground and watch them shatter."

Peter shrugs. "Sure, I guess."

Peter's standing in the living room, looking lost. Harley is in the background, accompanied by the sound of shattering dishes.

"I dunno where to start," Peter says slowly. "I guess tip the couch?"

He grabs the bottom of the couch with one hand and just flips it backwards onto its side. Underneath the couch is revealed to be a bunch of baby toys, including several pacifiers, building blocks, and a single eye from a Mr. Potato Head.

"Oh, that's where these went," Peter says, picking up the pacifiers. He kicks the rest of the toys around. "Alright, I guess I'll just make a giant mess."

There's a montage of Peter walking around the living room, tipping the couches and chairs, dumping some books from their shelves, kicking more toys around, etc. We see Peter carry the television out of the room, followed by Harley, who's carrying a stack of other electronics.

"Alright, so there's that done," Harley says.

"Just in time too, they just got back, they're coming up in the elevator," Peter says. He puts the camera inside a tipped tissue box, hiding it pretty well. "Now we just gotta act panicked."

The elevator dings, and Tony and Pepper enter the room. Pepper has a stroller with Hailey and Oliver in it, and Tony is carrying Morgan.

"Oh my god, thank god you're back!" Peter exclaims, hurrying towards them.

Tony takes in the destroyed room. "What the **** were you guys doing in here?"

"****!" Morgan happily exclaims.

"Tony!" Pepper hisses. "Mo, we don't use that word."

"We didn't do this!" Harley insists. "We got back from walking Lady, and when we got up here, it was like this!"

Tony stares at the boys, then looks around the room again. "Where'd you guys put the tv?"

"We didn't put it anywhere!" Peter says, sounding frustrated. "Harley told you, it was like this when we got back!"

"We think someone broke in," Harley supplies. "A bunch of like, electronics and things are missing."

Tony stares at them for a moment, before starting to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Peter asks. "Shouldn't we be looking for whoever did this?"

"Oh, boys," Tony says, laughing even harder. "You really didn't think this one through, did you?"

Peter and Harley glance at each other.

"What are you talking about?" Harley finally asks.

"Peter, Harley, there is literally no possible way for anyone to get in here without permission," Tony says, wiping his eyes, still chuckling. "The doors from the roof and stairs can't be opened unless Friday opens them. The elevator doesn't even have buttons - you have to ask Friday to open them. And none of the windows can be opened unless Friday opens them, and they're all bulletproof."

Peter and Harley are very still for a moment.

"Damn it," Peter mutters.

Tony is still laughing, while Pepper heads towards the kitchen.

"Did you really have to break all the dishes?" she calls. "I don't think a robber would just come in and smash every plate we own."

"That was Harley," Peter rats him out. "He thought it would be fun."

"Well, I hope cleaning everything up is fun, too," Pepper says, heading back towards them. "Start with the glass, I don't want anyone stepping on it."

The boys groan.

Peter is sitting on his bed, MJ next to him.

"Hey guys, everyone else finally showed up," Peter says, turning the camera to show Ned, Harley, Emma, and Mackenzie sitting on the floor. "So since that prank obviously failed, we thought we'd fill you in on something exciting we're doing this week!"

"So as you know, we graduated," MJ says. "And we've decided we want to shake our lives up a bit. So..."

"We're moving out!" Peter says. "The next video you'll see will be us looking for somewhere to live, and then we'll be moving in!"

"We're all really excited about this," Harley adds. "It'll be the six of us together, and so we're looking for a four bedroom place, three for us and then one we can use to film in."

"And obviously we know we're really lucky to be able to move out so quickly, especially into a place that big right in the middle of Manhattan," Peter adds. "And part of that is due to you guys, so we'd like to say thank you for supporting us this entire time!"

"And the other part is due to the fact that he won the adoption lottery," Harley adds.

"And he's a superhero," Ned says.

Peter rolls his eyes. "Yes, there's that too," he shrugs. "Well, anyway, thanks for watching you guys, like and subscribe to join the Ironfam to see more of... this. Comment down below if you saw the eye of the potato! See you all next week!"

All six of them wave at the camera, before Peter covers the lens with his hand.
