In the lab, Adam, Leo and Harper were setting up the pins for bionic bowling. Adam was already dressed in his bowling attire, including the shoes. The three of them were waiting for Bree and Chase to return from work.
Bree and Chase just started their new jobs at the same place a couple of days ago after a disagreement between them. Bree wanted some space away from her brothers, while Chase wanted to work at Tech Town because he felt it was the only place where his genius was appreciated.
"Hey guys, check it out. We just got our first paychecks from Tech Town." Chase boasted as he walked into the lab, holding up the envelope.
"Nice! What are you going to spend it on? A video game? New kicks?" Leo asked, rolling up his sleeves and nudged Chase. "A birthday gift for a sibling who wants a video game and new kicks?"
Chase shook his head and took a deep breath, smiling. "Nope. I'm gonna open a savings account."
Everyone except Harper gave him disapproving looks.
"I want to like you, but you make it so hard." Bree said, patting Chase on his back.
Harper pursed her lips and shrugged. "Well, actually it's a smart idea. Saving at an early age could set you up for a secure future, without needing to move back in with your parents to save for your first home deposit."
"Thank you, Harper. That's why you're my favorite." Chase said with a smile as he walked over and planted a kiss on her cheek. He then pulled out his new phone from his pocket. "The job also comes with perks."
Harper's eyes widened. "No way, the ePhone7! Those aren't supposed to be out until later this week. How'd you get one?"
"Well, Harper, as a rising star of the Tech Town empire-"
"We all got one." Bree interjected holding up her phone before leaving the lab.
"People are already lined up for the big release Friday. You should've seen the crazed looks in their eyes when I walked by with this thing." Chase said before noticing Leo's intense focus on the phone. "Yep, that's the look."
Leo swiftly took the phone from Chase's hand. "This version's got the new auto-centering feature to help you take better selfies." He said, extending his arm out and snapped a photo of himself. Harper and Chase leaned in to see the terrible picture. Both of them gave him unimpressed looks. "Yeah, I don't photograph well."
"Point that bad boy over here. You're gonna want to record this perfection." Adam said, holding up a bowling ball across the pin set up. Chase and Harper walked over to Adam, while Leo opened the camera app to start recording. "I'm Adam Davenport, and this is 'Bionic Bowling'."
Leo circled around them, capturing the scene. "Adam is six-foot-two, a rare combination of incredible strength and not much else."
Chase and Harper took a step back, with him tucking his hands in his pockets and her crossing her arms. Adam took aim with the ball and let out a deep breath. Instead of rolling it towards the pins, he hurled it, knocking all the pins down. Harper burst into laughter at the unexpected move.
