Quotes 

• Wheels : Hey. I'm Wheels. Yes, they call me that because of the wheelchair. It's a little on the nose, but I like it because it's cool.

  Missy Moreno : Okay.

  Wheels : You probably think I'm in the chair because my legs are weak, but it's the opposite. My muscles are so strong, my bones can't support 'em. But lucky for me, my brain's the same way. It's supercharged, so I'm good.

  Noodles : So, Wheels, who's your new friend?

  Wheels : Missy, this is Noodles. We call him that because, well...

  Missy Moreno : He stretches and twists around like a noodle?

  Wheels : Yeah, basically. And that's Ojo. Her power is that she's a genius drawer, like Van Gogh mixed with Monet with just a sprinkle of Salvador Dali

  Missy Moreno : Can I see that?

  [Ojo hands over her drawing tablet, which has a drawing of a boy climbing floating chairs] 

  Missy Moreno : A kid standing on top of floating chairs?

  [she swipes to reveal a drawing of purple tentacles coming through a fan and one of Noodles smashing an exercise ball and its air thrusting a boy backward] 

  Missy Moreno : An exploding exercise ball?

  Wheels : Nothing she draws makes an ounce of sense.

  [Missy swipes to reveal a drawing of herself standing at the front of the classroom holding the tablet] 

  Missy Moreno : That me? Why did you draw me in front of the classroom?

  Wheels : Oh, she won't answer. She only speaks through her drawings.

  A Capella : [singing]  Don't speak. I know just what you're saying.

  Noodles : No you don't. You have no clue what she said!

  Wheels : And this is A Capella.

  A Capella : It me.

  Missy Moreno : That's your superpower? You can sing?

  A Capella : Yep, but I have an unusual range. I can go

  [lowly] 

  A Capella : low, or I can go

  [highly] 

  A Capella : high.

  [Missy winces at the high sound] 

  A Capella : I can even go really

  [sings inaudibly] 

  Missy Moreno : I don't hear anything.

  A Capella : It's beyond human hearing.

  Ms. Granada : [over intercom]  Miss A Capella Vox, would you please refrain from using your high voice?

  [cut to Ms. Granada standing in front of a screen showing just outside the Heroics building] 

  Ms. Granada : Every dog in the neighborhood has surrounded our building.

  [cut back to the classroom, children giggle] 

  Wheels : And she can sing so low that she moves objects. Show her how you make things float.

  [a Capella starts singing lowly, tables and chairs vibrate, and chairs levitate. Then, Facemaker climbs on top of the chairs, and Guppy grabs her water cup which has levitated. Missy looks inquisitively at Ojo's tablet, and Facemaker jumps down before A Capella releases the chairs] 

  Wheels : All righty, let's see who's left. That's Blinding Fast's Kid, Slo-mo. He's actually moving very fast, but somehow, his powers have him stuck in a time warp.

  Slo-Mo : Hi

  [salutes]
