Super-Charlie (2024) Movie Script
THE EARTH 50 YEARS AGO
In this year's quarter race, we have two
siblings in the final for the first time.
Next to me we have... Inferio.
But on the right we have
the undefeated Anton -
- on his Super Speedster
Mountain Flyer 9000.
Isn't it unfair that... - Ready, set...
His bike is much better... - Go!
Okay. Then we'll press here.
Anton, what are you
doing? It seems dangerous.
Hello!
You need to pick up the pace a little.
Please stop. - As you wish.
Shit, where did you fly!
Did it hurt? - I... flew... far.
You have to fix my bike, and then
you have to do exactly as I say, -
- the rest of your life.
- What happened? Completely changed.
- How observant.
- You are a true connoisseur of people.
- Thank you.
Where are my glasses?
There they were. Good then.
The comet that gave Inferio
superpowers passes every 50 years.
Suppose Inferio hears about this?
Do you think I'm afraid of him? - Yes.
When the comet comes,
I catch the magic dust, -
- and then I get superpowers
and can crush the little...
- It's crazy with the voice scrambler.
- What's the problem?
- It should be a little more powerful.
- Like this?
Hello? Now it sounds
better. Much better. Better.
What? I speak so strangely.
Have you put on an accent?
Are you kidding me?
You're going to regret it!
No, wait! Put me down!
Now you talk like you usually do.
Testing... Yes, I do.
Why can't we fight,
like when we were little?
It could be because you
suddenly got superpowers.
- It hurts not to feel pain.
- It also hurts to feel pain.
This is my lot. I am
chosen. But it's eating me up.
- Speaking of eating. Have you cooked?
- It's going to be difficult with a broken wrist.
I'm tired of hiding. I need
to step into the spotlight.
Soon I will spread my wings and fly.
Towards the sun. - Towards the sun!
And burn up. - And burn up!
We should put on a musical sometime.
Hello, hello.
Soon it will be here again. Then I
will gain superpowers and destroy him.
Hello? Can you hear me? Hello?
A kick! Could you feel it? - Yes.
Can it hear me? - Absolutely.
Now I'm going to tell you about life
out here, so you're a little prepared.
My name is Wille, and
I am your older brother.
This is mom, but you know that
because that's where you live.
It's your nose. - No, it's the pee man.
- I might not know that.
- This is a mother earth.
- No, a midwife.
- I guess she's not that sharp.
This is my room. And here is my bed.
You are welcome to read my comic books.
Maybe not this. I'm a little bit
sorry about that. Special edition.
But this... is actually pretty rare too.
But you have to play with this. It's...
I actually have no idea what it is.
Tender!
Mom is a writer and has promised
to have a book finished soon, -
- so she's a little stressed.
In the evenings she tries
out new stories on me.
When everyone was asleep, he sneaked up with
a machete and slaughtered the entire family.
It worked well. Sleep well, honey.
You don't need...
...turn off the light.
Our sister, Wera, is a
little afraid of the dark, -
- so she usually likes to have
some company. But not today.
I'm in fourth grade. Unfortunately,
there are also some in sixth grade.
- Is that the mini-cop?
- I heard you like boxing.
No... - But I can.
Blow on him. - Hey, hey.
Hey, Dad. Just drive.
- What did you play?
- We did trust exercises.
Dad is a policeman. I want to be one too.
This city is having a hard time right now.
Theft of electronics, precious
metals from cars, computers...
How do the crimes take place? Do
the perpetrators have superpowers?
The police are constantly one step behind.
A few years ago, Dad was sure
he was on the trail of the villain.
He persuaded his boss
to take a huge action.
It's the police! Get down on the floor!
It was a kindergarten. Come.
Idiot.
Dad has developed an unhealthy relationship
with the case, but he will clear it up one day.
- Here's the kitchen. Here...
- That's it! The water's gone!
- Now there's obviously a leak.
- The bag... Where is the bag?
Wille? Everything has to be packed. Wera,
Wille? Now mom is going to give birth.
We've been practicing for this.
Behave yourself. I'll call you later.
- I forgot Mom. Mom, come on!
- You don't have to carry me.
It looks like we'll see each other soon.
So now you know how
the machine works, right?
I know exactly where and when the
celestial body hits the atmosphere, -
- and with this one I catch
the magic dust. Just turn it on.
Hello? Are you listening?
No, I listen to whale song.
It's calming. It sounds like this.
Hello.
Oh, little Charlie-pussy.
Little cuddly toy.
Have you had laughing gas too?
You don't have to talk like that.
Babies learn 34 new things
per hour. Which seems wasteful.
Yes, it's so wasteful...
Look now. Three, two, one, now!
Activate the vacuum. - Yes.
No, the other button! This
is blow! It should be suction!
There are two buttons!
Press the second button!
- I'll turn it off.
- No, don't turn it off!
No, no, no...
No! - What happened?
- You ruined everything, you clown!
- Can't you...
No, you can't. The race is over!
When will you come home
so I can play with him?
- In a few days.
- You'll have to be patient.
- I've been waiting for nine months.
- You have your whole life ahead of you.
You will have lots of fun adventures.
Now I have to wait another 50 years
before the celestial bodies appear again.
Can't it be used on humans? - What?
- So you suck the power out of them.
- No, that won't work.
It can be used to drain
the power out of people.
I've been thinking about this for a long time.
It needs to be modified, but it can be done.
Then I can use it on Inferio.
Hurry up! Run!
Don't run... - Be careful.
Sorry. Mom came home
today with my new little brother.
Dad is picking me up!
- Shouldn't you go home and play...
- Yes, Dad will pick me up soon.
Hey. You missed the boxing match last time.
Yes.
Hi, Mom. Where's Charlie? - With Dad.
- On my way home from school...
- I'm going to write. Talk to Dad.
When can I play with him?
As soon as he has eaten, burped,
slept, pooped and been changed.
- I thought you were going to pick me up.
- How nice.
Mom's going to write her book. I'm trying
to teach Charlie to take the bottle here.
- Can we play Supercop 4 later?
- Yes. In five or six years.
Very funny.
What's happening?
Nothing. Or so it is.
- I might be feeling a little depressed.
- Is that true?
- Yeah, no one's listening...
- You're kidding me!
Of...
What cave?
- What have you done to my room?
- He's sleeping.
I had a room right down there.
Do you know where it went?
Charlie has to sleep close to
us, so he has to take your room.
- Where am I going to stay?
- In my office for a while.
You can make it a little cozy in there.
Is there anything else you forgot to say?
That you and Mom are Russian spy cells?
That my name is Jesse and I'm from Chicago?
That your name is Ulf and
you work with underwear?
Changes are happening, but you have to
be a big boy and take more responsibility.
Wonderful! I, who love responsibility!
Wille, what... Your eye.
What have you done? Wille!
No, did I wake you up?
Want!
The most...
Her!
So that's all he does? How
long will he be so useless?
It may take a year before the first word
and up to two years before he can walk.
Two years?! Then I have
to go to Systembolaget.
Maybe the monopoly will
have been abolished by then.
I might have my own wine
shop on the West Coast.
Now he's dropped all the balls
here. I'm not picking them up.
Dear fantasy diary that I don't write, -
- It's been the worst day of my life.
Dad! Dad! Oh my God, Dad!
- There's a pattern to the thefts.
- Where's Charlie?
- On your stomach.
- Well, yes. I haven't slept well.
I've looked at your
investigation. There's a pattern!
Don't touch my things.
I know where and when
they will strike again.
Wille, you're too small. - But, Dad...
- We usually... The thieves...
- I'm going to change Charlie.
Honey, now you have to take him.
If that's how he
wants it, I'll do it alone.
Yes, but otherwise we'll
have to rely on another author.
No, I'm almost done. I'm
writing the last lines right now.
How exciting. What's it called?
It's called... "Charlie".
Now? Just "Charlie"?
Exciting. Naked and strong.
A hero name. Like Jack or Teddy.
Can you reveal a little bit of the plot?
- No, I'm going to finish writing now.
- Hello! Neighbor!
Milo here is ten days, four
hours and eight minutes old.
A newborn just gives off energy, right?
- We've had a bit of a rough time...
- He's developing so fast.
- All mothers think...
- I think he's a prodigy.
I've taken six years off to be with Milo.
It's super important to be
there for him every second.
Sorry, I'm rambling like this. My
name is Pernille and I live there.
And breastfeeding is
super important for contact.
Bottles are deadly, but you know that.
- I don't think...
- I'm breastfeeding and breastfeeding and breastfeeding.
I breastfeed everything, even
my husband. Do you breastfeed?
- Did you hear that? He said something.
- I think it was a burp.
He's trying to communicate. I
have to look up my baby dictionary.
Have a good time!
You can take Charlie with you. - I can't.
- What are you going to do?
- Break up a criminal network.
Take your brother with you. I have to work.
Now you have to show that you are great.
Like this. Now it's finished.
The extraction machine,
tailored to Inferio's body.
He's sitting here. You activate
it with the remote control here, -
- and then the strength is sucked
out of his body and ends up here.
Then I can drink it and get super powers!
Now I just have to
entice Inferio to sit in it.
It could take days, years... - Anton!
You're going to see something
cool. What kind of machine is that?
You're welcome to try it. Sit down.
- It's like it's tailor-made for me.
- You could say it is.
What is it? What can it do? - It...
Don't say anything. - Press!
- Is that a digsuit?
- No. Or what is a digsuit?
A digging suit. So you can
dig on construction sites.
Exactly. It's not quite finished.
I've been keeping it to myself.
- What I was supposed to show you...
- No...
A new superpower. - Okay.
Cool, right?
- Can you try enlarging it again?
- I can't yet.
Wild! After 50 years I
still find new strength!
Nice place. A little dark for my taste.
Some plants would work
wonders. Or a window... here.
- A bit of a boring view. Too bad.
- Next stop: Technical University.
Hello, hello.
How small it became.
"You're too small for something like that."
And the next moment: "You're big now.
Now you have to take more responsibility."
Are you satisfied now that they've
forced me to be a babysitter?
Hi. You seem to like
children. Would you like this?
It must be here.
I knew it. I was right!
What kind of place is this?
There they are.
So that's quite a lot.
I'll take it there.
Can you help me here? I'm breaking my back.
What kind of things are these?
They're stolen goods. I have to film them.
No, Charlie. Quiet. - What was that?
I'm looking.
Come on, Charlie. You have to be quiet.
Hello?
- No, no, no. We're trapped.
- Come forward freely.
Apparently there's no one here.
Vent!
They were just some snotty tongues.
I'll beat them up and throw them out.
No, you can't do anything to us.
Hello?
Pain! - What happened?
Charlie? How did you do it?
Do you do yoga? Who are you?
We are just little, innocent children.
Innocent children? We'll have to find out.
No!
Why...
What are you doing?
How do you do that?
That's incredible!
It was an infant!
What? What are they running for?
What is so dangerous?
What is this?
Was it you they were afraid of?
Hello, little friend. Are you lost?
Whoops. Was that a little burp?
What can such a thing be called?
Cold!
Get in the car! - Help me!
Heat.
Baby... crazy.
What are you talking about? What?
He's after me!
The kid has superpowers! Okay.
No! Be careful, Charlie!
Wow...
Sweet, little friend. Let's
talk about it. Wait a minute...
Yes... uh...
Then we're done here.
The race is over.
Now listen here. The
race has never been run.
How am I supposed to get Inferio into this?
Maybe a 40 cm tall person
with superpowers will appear...
We were attacked by a 40 cm
tall human with superpowers!
Okay... - He threw a forklift!
- And he slapped me in the face!
- But he was tiny!
Yes, micro-small. He could
sit in the small child seat.
Don't you believe us? - Yes.
We'll tell the boss. - Wait a minute.
What do you think Inferio will say
about you being defeated by a child?
Wouldn't you seem a little stupid?
Nothing happened. The cases are here.
Isn't it better to eat burgers? - Yes.
I need an Angus...
The stardust has landed on someone else.
A small child. And I will find the child.
This is completely normal. Some
children can walk early and others fly.
It's not weird. Completely... unharmed.
Damn it too. The keys.
I'm hungry. - Well, you have to...
Did you say something? - I'm hungry.
You can talk too. Of course. - Of course.
Okay. You can't say anything. - Why not?
I'll tell you later. - What's going on?
Good question. Maybe the
best question you've asked.
- You were gone for a long time. How did it go?
- Really well. I beat up a crook.
- Are you getting a cold?
- Yes. No. My voice is in transition.
Now you have to change. - I will.
That's sweet... - But I want to.
Me too. - What?
I said, "I want to. Me too." My
whole body wants to change Charlie.
What's wrong with you, Wille? - Great.
- The mysterious villains have struck.
- Have you seen this, Wille?
Apparently the police need
to buy a special weapon.
Thanks for a convincing demonstration.
It's crystal clear. If we equip the entire
corps, we will win against the villains.
Yes, but 39 billion kroner...
It sounds like a lot, but we
must take extreme measures.
Nothing we have done has had any effect.
But the money should go to
schools, swimming pools, skate parks...
What is security worth? Aren't
voters tired of feeling insecure?
- How much longer do they trust you?
- Lennart is sleeping. He was touching something.
The anti-theft system must
be off. He'll wake up soon.
Okay, you can talk, fly,
and carry a container.
Then we know. Good. - Why is it secret?
It would create chaos. It
would shake the whole world.
You would never have peace. You
would have to live in a laboratory.
- Away from mom and dad?
- Yes, away from mom and dad.
- Why is that?
- Because you're a superhero, Charlie.
- What is a superhero?
- Okay, it'll take time.
Time is not on our side.
When will they strike again?
I hear what you're saying, but we
have to test it out before we decide.
We'll find out. I'll
choose a suitable officer.
All superheroes have an origin
story. The story of how it all began.
How we discovered your powers.
We're writing yours right now, as we speak.
Aha! There is a maternity
ward where the stardust blew in.
Now I have to find
the little child. My ticket!
And it's all about the final
showdown with a supervillain.
He does everything he can to
destroy the superhero, that is, you.
He will lure you out by
threatening innocent people.
How is that? It's often a
school bus full of children, -
- hanging over the railing of a bridge.
Or a bunch of kids stuck in a
Ferris wheel that we have to save.
Or... that you have to save.
Because... I...
My brother has superpowers,
but who am I in all of this?
Is it me? Him in the
background? The sidekick?
What's wrong with being a
sidekick? Just look at Robin.
Robin doesn't do anything. - Yeah.
He has very colorful clothes. You
should be happy for your brother.
No. You're right to be depressed. You
have to stand in your brother's shadow.
You are doomed to eternal
darkness. But there is one way to fix it.
- Don't listen to him. There are many...
- You can hear it yourself. No!
You should be the superhero.
You know how it works.
Now you need to write your manifesto.
Let's see who was born at the current time.
Like stealing candy from a child. - Yes.
But the candy gives you superpowers.
And soon you'll be superpowerful too.
You can't say "super powerful." It
sounds like you mean super thick.
Yes, the BMI man. - Bingo!
- What are you doing here?
- Isn't this a bingo hall?
No, it's a hospital. - I told you so.
Bingo halls don't look like this. We
have to run if we're going to make it.
The real superhero is the one who
takes command and solves the problem.
He can also... - Do you have a brain?
Yes. - Exactly.
A complete cop has both brains
and brawn. You have zero brawn.
You're as thin as a matchstick.
But the solution is right in front of you.
Charlie becomes your muscles. A
weapon you can use. Write it down.
I can keep Charlie's powers a secret.
Take advantage of the
fact that he trusts me.
I can take credit for
everything Charlie does.
Sabotage it for him and
prevent him from succeeding.
Now she knew who the
killer was. It was a... neighbor.
Imagine someone living so close...
Hi. I'm training Milo's night
vision. What are you doing?
I'm writing a log of Charlie's development.
Counting his breaths and
weighing his diapers. Don't you?
Yes... of course.
Absolutely. I can do that. A funnel.
A suit of course. I'm in. Hello.
- Who was it?
- My boss. I'll be right back.
- But you have Charlie today.
- It's important. I'm chosen.
- Maybe it'll turn around now.
- Hi. I can give Charlie a bottle.
He'll calm down when I do that.
We'll go for a walk. I can look after him.
Wait... How much did you pay him for that?
- It's good that they're having fun, isn't it?
- Yesterday he wanted to sell his brother.
They're not doing anything dangerous.
Where are we going? - To our hideout.
All superheroes have
a hideout and a mission.
- What is our mission?
- To catch the bad guys red-handed.
And I... we... get the
credit for catching them.
- And Dad will understand that I don't...
- What does "honor" mean?
- We'll do that later. Put it on.
- How nice.
- What does the S stand for?
- S... Sidekick.
Cool name. What's your name?
The Master! - That's cool too.
Now we need to find out your
powers. How high can you fly?
- Fly? I can't fly.
- But yesterday, when we...
Okay. We'll start with some
fighting techniques. Here.
Off! - Excuse me.
- I thought...
- I want to go home. I'm hungry.
We haven't even started.
You can eat when...
Okay. Relax. You'll get food.
So it is now. The baby is very strong, -
- so I have developed a preparation
that causes the strength to decrease.
A kind of pre-treatment so that
you can extract the strength later.
It makes him compliant.
You didn't drink it, did you?
It's no use. Your speech
center is out of power.
Now I have it. We'll get the big brother
to get the preparation into the kid.
Not many superheroes do that.
You'll feel better soon. And
you'll be able to talk, I think.
Anton! Now you get the chance to shine.
You have to threaten to detonate a
bomb in a densely populated area.
What a chance. That sounds super fun.
But I'm an inventor. I want to be shot.
That's the point. - How sick. I'm in.
Wait. Now I got the best idea. - What?
- He'll do it instead.
- Do you think he wants to?
Sure. Otherwise he would
have said so. He's not paralyzed.
Then we say it. He does it.
It was close. What's up?
Why are you looking at me like
that? Stop it, it's uncomfortable!
You're a good student, Charlie.
It's okay if you can't fly yet.
But we can test a lot of other forces.
Shooting with ice, laser beams,
force fields, dimensional shifts, -
- X-ray vision, elasticity,
becoming invisible, becoming...
- Do you see what I see?
- I can try to see what you see.
Just look with your eyes. Can
you see the brand on the truck?
It's the same thing.
We'll follow! - I'm not trained.
We can't train anymore.
What should we do? It's going too slowly.
Yes, he stopped!
Isn't that the minister? - Hello.
- Move, I'm busy.
- Are you on a secret mission?
No, he's playing mother,
father and child. Nice shirt.
- Does M stand for "mite"?
- Can I try on the shirt?
Stop it! - Hey, hey.
- What kind of cute little guy is that?
- I didn't want to tease him.
What does he do then? Shit in his pants?
What are you doing?
Of!
My nose. It's my best feature,
says mother. It must not be broken.
We're running away.
Of!
What?
Flot, Charlie!
No... we'll never get there.
Yes, we do. Jump up. - What?
This doesn't feel dignified!
Good, Charlie! It's going really fast!
There it is! - That was clever, huh?
- It would be better to fly.
- Are you never satisfied?
Here comes the engine!
Climb up! - How good!
Oh no!
Watch out for the sign!
Okay, now I know what it feels like to fly.
Where are we?
He's behind the car. Now we can jump down.
Jump down!
Well, there you were.
No, there's still a smell. Then
there's something in the car.
- It's a regular garbage dump.
- Look there. Where is that car going?
Did you see the hole in the
side? It was from the forklift.
We are on the right track.
There they are.
Welcome.
We have to go in there.
It won't work, but I'll try.
No access.
No, wrong biometrics. Damn it
too. We'll have to wait until the next...
Yes, or you can lift the door off.
That's a slightly different approach.
Here is all the loot.
Everything people have lost.
- What does that mean?
- We're on the right track.
- Look at the suits! Exoskeletons!
- It's pretty dark in here.
They must have used the
loot to make this equipment.
But why? - What?
Where are you going now? - Uh...
We don't have to go down there. - Wow...
Shouldn't we go back to the hideout?
No, we're getting into the creepy.
- This is where they do the cases.
- So we've seen it.
- Check. Then we can go home.
- Don't you understand how big this is?
- We'll see what it is.
- Shall we? It's creepy.
What? - Someone's coming.
It's unfair. I was paralyzed.
Can't he do it himself?
It'll be fine. - It looks like a bomb.
It's easy for you to say.
You shouldn't be shot.
- I want to go home to mom and dad.
- What? Not now.
Yes, you get such a warm feeling
when you get a hug from your mother.
You shouldn't trust adults.
They always fail in the end.
One day you are the most important
thing, the next you are worthless.
So avoid the hot emotions.
They are their weapon.
It's best not to trust anyone. Only me.
- No, you shouldn't cry now.
- I can't resist the impulse.
Yes, you can.
What is it?
What? - The kid!
That's them! Now we get them!
Stay here!
Uh? But...
Where are you going, Rolle?
The kids are going up there!
Can you reach my cell
phone? Dad has to pick us up.
I can try.
Good! - That was close!
Take the ball!
- Hurry up.
- I hate climbing on an empty stomach.
Isn't that the baby who
smashed us last time? Hey!
- Do you want to fight them again?
- Preferably not.
- Then why are we running after them?
- I don't know.
No, they're gone.
Should we tell the boss? - Nothing.
- Burger?
- Yeah. Maybe I should try ungulates.
- It sounds like Source machino.
- What is it?
A tickling machine that takes
over my body. I have to tickle!
Oh no. - Source machino, Source machino!
Far!
- They were at the school. I'll call.
- Listen, Dad.
- Where have you been?
- We found the villains' headquarters.
Now you have to stop. It's great
that you want to be with your brother.
- But Charlie is a baby.
- What are you wearing?
We might have to buy
them here if I do well.
But it's difficult when I have to babysit.
- It's the same. Now I'm in.
- No, not a pill.
It has a wild anti-theft feature.
I know how it all works. - Quiet.
An attack at the amusement
park. A masked man as seen before.
I'll take that.
- Don't believe it. It's a trap.
- I don't want to hear any more.
But we saw... - Now you have to be quiet.
What's happening? - Mom!
Let's see. Damn it too.
- I want to come.
- You stay here. Dad has to work.
But that's my business
too. I've cleared it all up.
Be careful!
Run!
- I'm dangerous and I have a gun!
- Calm down now.
It's a bomb. And we have civilians there.
How high up we are!
I like you, Wille. You
are sweet and thoughtful.
Thoughtful. - You care about me.
You will help me get better
without thinking about yourself.
I want to be just like you when I grow up.
Now I'm not big. - You're bigger than me.
Charlie, there's
something I have to tell you.
I haven't been completely
honest. I'm not that thoughtful.
- I wanted to take advantage of...
- Can we get a report?
It's a ticking time bomb. A
lot of children are in danger.
Come on, we have to go there. - No.
- Dad said we should stay here.
- Did you get lactose poisoning?
- He has a higher rank.
- Then I'll do it myself.
- I need backup.
- You have the suit. You can handle it.
There is one villain. He
is masked and armed...
Hello! - He's discovered me.
Maybe because I'm talking too loud.
Wait. He's pointing the gun at me now.
Use the new weapon. - Well, the weapon.
- I forgot it. I'll get it.
- Are you kidding?
Wait! Where are you going? - The bomb!
I need my weapon. Where is Wille...
How are you? Can you hear me?
I have to play the role of evil.
That doesn't sound believable.
It's difficult with that suit.
Boo! I look like a walking
puddle. Where did the cop go?
Wake up! Are you
listening? Society needs you.
Wake up, you fool!
You shouldn't sleep now!
Av. You asked me. You could
sense that Dad was going to wake up.
You're a hero, Charlie. Do
you understand? Wait here.
The bomb is not loaded.
If someone tries something,
I try something too.
So it's not a good idea to try anything!
Put down the gun, or I'll shoot!
Now it's happening.
It's going to hurt again.
Yes, it did. Off! Mother!
How tacky!
This is what happens when
you meet Sweden's best...
Bombs!
Okay, let's see.
Red or blue? I learned that once.
I'll take red. No, now I took
blue. And that was good.
I'm still here. The danger is over!
The bomb is defused! - Hurray!
I have saved you!
The wave of crimes is now over.
We can sleep soundly thanks to this duo.
Yes, and thanks to this amazing weapon.
Hadn't the hero come in the new suit, -
- then the children would
not have lived any longer.
I would also like to thank my son Charlie.
Thanks to him... - Charlie? Quiet, Milo.
It wouldn't have happened without him.
He sensed the danger and wanted to warn me.
Yes... And the weapon. Fantastic.
Have the police been reinforced
by a little Super Charlie?
- Yes, you can...
- You also had an older son here.
Yes, but I'm a little unsure
where he is. How far is he?
Look, here he comes.
Shit, you stink, Wille. - Hey, kid.
I know your secret and I know how you feel.
- What do you mean? Who are you?
- Your little brother has superpowers.
You don't have to stand in his
shadow. You can also get superpowers!
How? - Science. I'm a researcher.
Great for you, but I'll manage.
- What if I threaten your life?
- No, thank you.
He will come back.
It's not so healthy to look at it anymore.
- I've been named Officer of the Year!
- Is that true? It's well deserved.
Yes, and the city will buy the
equipment. Thanks to me and Charlie.
What about the skate park, the
swimming pool and everything else?
What good are playgrounds if
you don't dare to play on them?
- The city needs security and me.
- It's a bluff!
- I can prove it! Listen!
- I can't take it.
- Mom, you believe me, right?
- Forget it now.
Can't you be happy that
dad is a hero for once?
Nobody understands. They've got
the wrong guy. He's a henchman.
The explosive charge was not activated.
Why would they detonate bombs?
So far it has been thefts. Now it
was in front of thousands of people.
They wanted people to see it.
And no one was going to get hurt.
They just wanted to lure Dad there.
But why?
Why was Dad the first on the scene?
Weren't there any patrols closer?
We have to storm their hideout
before the police buy the suit! Come on!
"I can take advantage
of Charlie trusting me."
You must not read it!
"Take credit for everything Charlie does.
Sabotage it for him and
prevent him from succeeding."
- That doesn't apply anymore.
- I trusted you.
But you were right. You
shouldn't trust anyone.
I can't do it without you.
- Don't give up.
- I'm not following your advice.
- It didn't go well last time.
- You can prove everyone wrong.
- It's not working. No one is listening to me.
- Hello. Are you meeting?
How lucky. Then you can get my input.
- You know where the bad guys are.
- I can't do it without Charlie.
It's unfair. He's a baby and
doesn't need superpowers.
- Imagine if you had gotten them.
- Yes, but how would that work?
Here I am again. What did I miss?
Don't fold me there.
ANTON EVIL SCIENTISHow cozy. Welcome.
I had a feeling you'd show up.
So I get the superpowers, but
isn't that dangerous for Charlie?
No, of course not.
Okay, I'll do it.
You have made a very wise choice.
What should I do? - It's quite simple.
You just have to give him this.
I'm doing this for everyone's
sake. Only I can save the city.
- It's up to me now.
- You shouldn't give him...
Now it will be like this.
Today, the ceremony will be held with
several hundred officers and their families.
The city also signs the contract
with the supplier of the new equipment.
- Do you want to hear the speech?
- How long is it?
Maybe it should be shortened.
What?
Hello? Charlie? Ask.
Stan-pow, stan-pow...
What have I done?
Mom! He can't talk! - Who?
Charlie! - No, he's four weeks old.
You don't understand. He's got...
- I can't tell you...
- You have to come. Change your clothes now.
- You never want to join in on anything.
- Fine.
Would you like to join us? If so...
- I'm going crazy. Were we like this?
- Find my pants before I cry.
I have to hurry. I'll see you there.
You'll be picked up by a limousine.
How fancy. - Yeah, that's kind of funny.
A limousine? I'm changing clothes.
Luck up!
- You have to help me!
- Has he received the medicine?
Something is wrong. What's
happening to my brother?
The remedy works slowly. First the
strength decreases and then the speech.
- In the end, he's like a baby.
- You have to change it!
I might be able to, but I don't want to.
- Now the snowball is rolling.
- You little... rat!
Now I'm going to the ceremony
and steal Charlie's powers.
So we must hope he survives.
Over... Survive?
Yes, you did well. - Thank you.
- And thanks for the limousine.
- The limousine?
Excuse me. Would you like to
give a lecture on your method?
I have no method. I want my
children to have a normal life.
The child seat is in front
of me. Oh, he's sleeping.
Yes, like that.
Mom! Charlie! Don't drive
with him! Get out of the car!
Vent!
Stands! Stands...
Damn it too. No, no, no!
Oh no. Is the bike broken? - What?
Yes.
You can borrow my bike. - Thank you.
- We'll take a picture.
- Yes, there they are!
The most...
You have to go! He's evil!
He wants to steal your powers!
I should get a prize.
- Shoot him with a laser!
- I can't do that.
The powers... don't work.
I... tired.
You can't sleep now.
Watch out! Move!
Where are you going? - Let me in.
- My father should get a prize.
- Get out of here.
Charlie is going on stage
so I can take him backstage.
Trust me. I'm the kind
of person you can trust.
- Yes, he's going on stage...
- Mom, don't let him take Charlie!
- Where are you going with Charlie?
- Nowhere.
Your wife asked me to look after
him. The little bandit is asleep.
Good. Then you come in
with him when I introduce him.
No, he's dangerous! Stop him! Hello!
No, no, no. Where are they?
Yes, there he is!
No, it's locked!
To think that I have been waiting
for this moment for 50 years.
50 years! That's a long time.
Yes, but...
Shit, I have to get Charlie out of there.
Let's see. The container there.
Then we just have to activate it.
Such.
It's too tight. No!
Now nothing can stop me. Now...
What? Where did the container go?
Yes, it must be usable. It will be good.
May I introduce the officer of the
year! Give him a big round of applause!
Yes. Yes.
Thank you and thank you.
I want to thank my wife and my
children. Especially little Charlie...
I don't know where he is, -
- but let me tell you
how I caught the villain.
Anton!
I need a pen. - Please.
Remember to equip the suit with a pen.
What is it? A juicer? A latte machine?
You could say that. - How delicious.
Give it to me. - No.
Are you saying no to Inferio? - No...
Good. Then say yes. - Then yes.
And give me the coffee.
Now I have superpowers,
and I will destroy you!
Now the tyranny is over!
You shall taste my wrath!
- Have you gone crazy?
- Yes, maybe, but I feel fine.
Fall down. Then we'll have to come
up with a suitable punishment later.
No. I was about to forget.
I was supposed to be super
strong. What happened?
Now we have to get out of
here. But what do we do with this?
Your powers are in it. Or yours?
Nobody says it's yours just
because... We could share.
If I take half... I'll
take it all because...
Yes, that's how we do it. It's fair.
It... was... me...
It was me who...
Mom came home today
with my new little brother.
I like you.
You can talk too. Of course. - Of course.
You're cute. - Source machino!
You care about me. You
want to help me get better.
- Without thinking about yourself.
- Sidekick.
Now it begins.
Have the police been reinforced
by a little Super Charlie?
- But... who am I in all this?
- You're bigger than me.
What am I thinking about?
You need strength. Drink now.
- Now we've come to the important part.
- Can you say something?
- We have to sign the contract.
- Oh no! I'll be right there.
Then I'll sign... - Wait! Don't sign!
You've caught the wrong villain! You're
going to deal with the right villain!
The equipment is built from
electronics he stole from us!
Wille. Do you want to ruin
this moment for your father?
He's caught the villain,
and we're here to celebrate.
It's not your fault, father, but we
haven't caught the villain, Inferio.
You had to succeed, so
we needed his weapon.
Boring! Out!
You must not sign! That's what he wants!
Who is this Inferio that you speak of?
You.
No! You mustn't touch it!
Oops! No...
Like this! Yes, yes. Now you have to...
You don't touch my son, or I'll...
You were absolutely
right. People need a threat.
It unites like a warm campfire
that you can gather around.
And I can offer that threat.
But I can also offer the rescue.
The battle between good
and evil, and I control both.
It's a win-win situation... for me.
So now the two of us
are going on a little trip.
Unfortunately, it will be
a one-way trip. For you.
Will!
We are very high up!
It's nothing personal,
but I'll let you go now.
Otherwise, they'll never
understand that I'm serious. Hey, hey.
No!
- Wuhu! You can fly!
- Of course! I'm Sidekick!
No, I'm the Sidekick.
Wille! Charlie!
All my life I have longed for
someone who can measure up to me.
No one understands how lonely
it has been to have superpowers -
- without being able to
use them against anyone.
When I face an opponent with strength, -
- then it's a small baby
who can't compare to...
The kid wants to play!
What?
Now the bells have rung for you!
What?
So it must be a family trip!
It costs a little extra. - Let me go!
There you are. Mom and
Dad want to leave without you.
They need some alone time! - No!
Watch out, Charlie!
That should be enough. Isn't it funny?
Like riding in an elevator, but
just backwards and sideways.
It was the shortest superhero
career I've ever seen.
Use a superpower!
Any one! - It hurts.
Don't be so harsh. He's a baby
who's just getting his powers.
It takes time to learn to control
them as perfectly as I can.
But now, unfortunately, I must
put an end to you, little friend.
But which power should I choose?
Maybe the latest one I've discovered.
Shrinkage. What would happen
if I made you even smaller?
Who threw it? - It was me.
You? That was very stupid.
I still have superpowers.
I don't think they feel smaller
just because I'm smaller.
Boring that it had to end like this.
The most...
What's happening? What?
Put me down! I'm not a pet!
Or am I? Lock me out! At least in the zoo!
No. Not a pill.
- But I want it.
- Superpowers have to be earned.
Now I'm going to hypnotize you so
you forget everything you've seen.
Hypnosis? What...
Yes... You did. May I ask
where the story came from?
You won't believe it,
but my son Wille told it.
I thought of something. There must be
a shot of superpowers in the machine.
It must not fall into the wrong
hands. We must go there...
What a fantasy. Is it
too early to sign him?
Seriously. Is that it?
Translation: Louise Munk
Alminde Scandinavian Text Service
In this year's quarter race, we have two
siblings in the final for the first time.
Next to me we have... Inferio.
But on the right we have
the undefeated Anton -
- on his Super Speedster
Mountain Flyer 9000.
Isn't it unfair that... - Ready, set...
His bike is much better... - Go!
Okay. Then we'll press here.
Anton, what are you
doing? It seems dangerous.
Hello!
You need to pick up the pace a little.
Please stop. - As you wish.
Shit, where did you fly!
Did it hurt? - I... flew... far.
You have to fix my bike, and then
you have to do exactly as I say, -
- the rest of your life.
- What happened? Completely changed.
- How observant.
- You are a true connoisseur of people.
- Thank you.
Where are my glasses?
There they were. Good then.
The comet that gave Inferio
superpowers passes every 50 years.
Suppose Inferio hears about this?
Do you think I'm afraid of him? - Yes.
When the comet comes,
I catch the magic dust, -
- and then I get superpowers
and can crush the little...
- It's crazy with the voice scrambler.
- What's the problem?
- It should be a little more powerful.
- Like this?
Hello? Now it sounds
better. Much better. Better.
What? I speak so strangely.
Have you put on an accent?
Are you kidding me?
You're going to regret it!
No, wait! Put me down!
Now you talk like you usually do.
Testing... Yes, I do.
Why can't we fight,
like when we were little?
It could be because you
suddenly got superpowers.
- It hurts not to feel pain.
- It also hurts to feel pain.
This is my lot. I am
chosen. But it's eating me up.
- Speaking of eating. Have you cooked?
- It's going to be difficult with a broken wrist.
I'm tired of hiding. I need
to step into the spotlight.
Soon I will spread my wings and fly.
Towards the sun. - Towards the sun!
And burn up. - And burn up!
We should put on a musical sometime.
Hello, hello.
Soon it will be here again. Then I
will gain superpowers and destroy him.
Hello? Can you hear me? Hello?
A kick! Could you feel it? - Yes.
Can it hear me? - Absolutely.
Now I'm going to tell you about life
out here, so you're a little prepared.
My name is Wille, and
I am your older brother.
This is mom, but you know that
because that's where you live.
It's your nose. - No, it's the pee man.
- I might not know that.
- This is a mother earth.
- No, a midwife.
- I guess she's not that sharp.
This is my room. And here is my bed.
You are welcome to read my comic books.
Maybe not this. I'm a little bit
sorry about that. Special edition.
But this... is actually pretty rare too.
But you have to play with this. It's...
I actually have no idea what it is.
Tender!
Mom is a writer and has promised
to have a book finished soon, -
- so she's a little stressed.
In the evenings she tries
out new stories on me.
When everyone was asleep, he sneaked up with
a machete and slaughtered the entire family.
It worked well. Sleep well, honey.
You don't need...
...turn off the light.
Our sister, Wera, is a
little afraid of the dark, -
- so she usually likes to have
some company. But not today.
I'm in fourth grade. Unfortunately,
there are also some in sixth grade.
- Is that the mini-cop?
- I heard you like boxing.
No... - But I can.
Blow on him. - Hey, hey.
Hey, Dad. Just drive.
- What did you play?
- We did trust exercises.
Dad is a policeman. I want to be one too.
This city is having a hard time right now.
Theft of electronics, precious
metals from cars, computers...
How do the crimes take place? Do
the perpetrators have superpowers?
The police are constantly one step behind.
A few years ago, Dad was sure
he was on the trail of the villain.
He persuaded his boss
to take a huge action.
It's the police! Get down on the floor!
It was a kindergarten. Come.
Idiot.
Dad has developed an unhealthy relationship
with the case, but he will clear it up one day.
- Here's the kitchen. Here...
- That's it! The water's gone!
- Now there's obviously a leak.
- The bag... Where is the bag?
Wille? Everything has to be packed. Wera,
Wille? Now mom is going to give birth.
We've been practicing for this.
Behave yourself. I'll call you later.
- I forgot Mom. Mom, come on!
- You don't have to carry me.
It looks like we'll see each other soon.
So now you know how
the machine works, right?
I know exactly where and when the
celestial body hits the atmosphere, -
- and with this one I catch
the magic dust. Just turn it on.
Hello? Are you listening?
No, I listen to whale song.
It's calming. It sounds like this.
Hello.
Oh, little Charlie-pussy.
Little cuddly toy.
Have you had laughing gas too?
You don't have to talk like that.
Babies learn 34 new things
per hour. Which seems wasteful.
Yes, it's so wasteful...
Look now. Three, two, one, now!
Activate the vacuum. - Yes.
No, the other button! This
is blow! It should be suction!
There are two buttons!
Press the second button!
- I'll turn it off.
- No, don't turn it off!
No, no, no...
No! - What happened?
- You ruined everything, you clown!
- Can't you...
No, you can't. The race is over!
When will you come home
so I can play with him?
- In a few days.
- You'll have to be patient.
- I've been waiting for nine months.
- You have your whole life ahead of you.
You will have lots of fun adventures.
Now I have to wait another 50 years
before the celestial bodies appear again.
Can't it be used on humans? - What?
- So you suck the power out of them.
- No, that won't work.
It can be used to drain
the power out of people.
I've been thinking about this for a long time.
It needs to be modified, but it can be done.
Then I can use it on Inferio.
Hurry up! Run!
Don't run... - Be careful.
Sorry. Mom came home
today with my new little brother.
Dad is picking me up!
- Shouldn't you go home and play...
- Yes, Dad will pick me up soon.
Hey. You missed the boxing match last time.
Yes.
Hi, Mom. Where's Charlie? - With Dad.
- On my way home from school...
- I'm going to write. Talk to Dad.
When can I play with him?
As soon as he has eaten, burped,
slept, pooped and been changed.
- I thought you were going to pick me up.
- How nice.
Mom's going to write her book. I'm trying
to teach Charlie to take the bottle here.
- Can we play Supercop 4 later?
- Yes. In five or six years.
Very funny.
What's happening?
Nothing. Or so it is.
- I might be feeling a little depressed.
- Is that true?
- Yeah, no one's listening...
- You're kidding me!
Of...
What cave?
- What have you done to my room?
- He's sleeping.
I had a room right down there.
Do you know where it went?
Charlie has to sleep close to
us, so he has to take your room.
- Where am I going to stay?
- In my office for a while.
You can make it a little cozy in there.
Is there anything else you forgot to say?
That you and Mom are Russian spy cells?
That my name is Jesse and I'm from Chicago?
That your name is Ulf and
you work with underwear?
Changes are happening, but you have to
be a big boy and take more responsibility.
Wonderful! I, who love responsibility!
Wille, what... Your eye.
What have you done? Wille!
No, did I wake you up?
Want!
The most...
Her!
So that's all he does? How
long will he be so useless?
It may take a year before the first word
and up to two years before he can walk.
Two years?! Then I have
to go to Systembolaget.
Maybe the monopoly will
have been abolished by then.
I might have my own wine
shop on the West Coast.
Now he's dropped all the balls
here. I'm not picking them up.
Dear fantasy diary that I don't write, -
- It's been the worst day of my life.
Dad! Dad! Oh my God, Dad!
- There's a pattern to the thefts.
- Where's Charlie?
- On your stomach.
- Well, yes. I haven't slept well.
I've looked at your
investigation. There's a pattern!
Don't touch my things.
I know where and when
they will strike again.
Wille, you're too small. - But, Dad...
- We usually... The thieves...
- I'm going to change Charlie.
Honey, now you have to take him.
If that's how he
wants it, I'll do it alone.
Yes, but otherwise we'll
have to rely on another author.
No, I'm almost done. I'm
writing the last lines right now.
How exciting. What's it called?
It's called... "Charlie".
Now? Just "Charlie"?
Exciting. Naked and strong.
A hero name. Like Jack or Teddy.
Can you reveal a little bit of the plot?
- No, I'm going to finish writing now.
- Hello! Neighbor!
Milo here is ten days, four
hours and eight minutes old.
A newborn just gives off energy, right?
- We've had a bit of a rough time...
- He's developing so fast.
- All mothers think...
- I think he's a prodigy.
I've taken six years off to be with Milo.
It's super important to be
there for him every second.
Sorry, I'm rambling like this. My
name is Pernille and I live there.
And breastfeeding is
super important for contact.
Bottles are deadly, but you know that.
- I don't think...
- I'm breastfeeding and breastfeeding and breastfeeding.
I breastfeed everything, even
my husband. Do you breastfeed?
- Did you hear that? He said something.
- I think it was a burp.
He's trying to communicate. I
have to look up my baby dictionary.
Have a good time!
You can take Charlie with you. - I can't.
- What are you going to do?
- Break up a criminal network.
Take your brother with you. I have to work.
Now you have to show that you are great.
Like this. Now it's finished.
The extraction machine,
tailored to Inferio's body.
He's sitting here. You activate
it with the remote control here, -
- and then the strength is sucked
out of his body and ends up here.
Then I can drink it and get super powers!
Now I just have to
entice Inferio to sit in it.
It could take days, years... - Anton!
You're going to see something
cool. What kind of machine is that?
You're welcome to try it. Sit down.
- It's like it's tailor-made for me.
- You could say it is.
What is it? What can it do? - It...
Don't say anything. - Press!
- Is that a digsuit?
- No. Or what is a digsuit?
A digging suit. So you can
dig on construction sites.
Exactly. It's not quite finished.
I've been keeping it to myself.
- What I was supposed to show you...
- No...
A new superpower. - Okay.
Cool, right?
- Can you try enlarging it again?
- I can't yet.
Wild! After 50 years I
still find new strength!
Nice place. A little dark for my taste.
Some plants would work
wonders. Or a window... here.
- A bit of a boring view. Too bad.
- Next stop: Technical University.
Hello, hello.
How small it became.
"You're too small for something like that."
And the next moment: "You're big now.
Now you have to take more responsibility."
Are you satisfied now that they've
forced me to be a babysitter?
Hi. You seem to like
children. Would you like this?
It must be here.
I knew it. I was right!
What kind of place is this?
There they are.
So that's quite a lot.
I'll take it there.
Can you help me here? I'm breaking my back.
What kind of things are these?
They're stolen goods. I have to film them.
No, Charlie. Quiet. - What was that?
I'm looking.
Come on, Charlie. You have to be quiet.
Hello?
- No, no, no. We're trapped.
- Come forward freely.
Apparently there's no one here.
Vent!
They were just some snotty tongues.
I'll beat them up and throw them out.
No, you can't do anything to us.
Hello?
Pain! - What happened?
Charlie? How did you do it?
Do you do yoga? Who are you?
We are just little, innocent children.
Innocent children? We'll have to find out.
No!
Why...
What are you doing?
How do you do that?
That's incredible!
It was an infant!
What? What are they running for?
What is so dangerous?
What is this?
Was it you they were afraid of?
Hello, little friend. Are you lost?
Whoops. Was that a little burp?
What can such a thing be called?
Cold!
Get in the car! - Help me!
Heat.
Baby... crazy.
What are you talking about? What?
He's after me!
The kid has superpowers! Okay.
No! Be careful, Charlie!
Wow...
Sweet, little friend. Let's
talk about it. Wait a minute...
Yes... uh...
Then we're done here.
The race is over.
Now listen here. The
race has never been run.
How am I supposed to get Inferio into this?
Maybe a 40 cm tall person
with superpowers will appear...
We were attacked by a 40 cm
tall human with superpowers!
Okay... - He threw a forklift!
- And he slapped me in the face!
- But he was tiny!
Yes, micro-small. He could
sit in the small child seat.
Don't you believe us? - Yes.
We'll tell the boss. - Wait a minute.
What do you think Inferio will say
about you being defeated by a child?
Wouldn't you seem a little stupid?
Nothing happened. The cases are here.
Isn't it better to eat burgers? - Yes.
I need an Angus...
The stardust has landed on someone else.
A small child. And I will find the child.
This is completely normal. Some
children can walk early and others fly.
It's not weird. Completely... unharmed.
Damn it too. The keys.
I'm hungry. - Well, you have to...
Did you say something? - I'm hungry.
You can talk too. Of course. - Of course.
Okay. You can't say anything. - Why not?
I'll tell you later. - What's going on?
Good question. Maybe the
best question you've asked.
- You were gone for a long time. How did it go?
- Really well. I beat up a crook.
- Are you getting a cold?
- Yes. No. My voice is in transition.
Now you have to change. - I will.
That's sweet... - But I want to.
Me too. - What?
I said, "I want to. Me too." My
whole body wants to change Charlie.
What's wrong with you, Wille? - Great.
- The mysterious villains have struck.
- Have you seen this, Wille?
Apparently the police need
to buy a special weapon.
Thanks for a convincing demonstration.
It's crystal clear. If we equip the entire
corps, we will win against the villains.
Yes, but 39 billion kroner...
It sounds like a lot, but we
must take extreme measures.
Nothing we have done has had any effect.
But the money should go to
schools, swimming pools, skate parks...
What is security worth? Aren't
voters tired of feeling insecure?
- How much longer do they trust you?
- Lennart is sleeping. He was touching something.
The anti-theft system must
be off. He'll wake up soon.
Okay, you can talk, fly,
and carry a container.
Then we know. Good. - Why is it secret?
It would create chaos. It
would shake the whole world.
You would never have peace. You
would have to live in a laboratory.
- Away from mom and dad?
- Yes, away from mom and dad.
- Why is that?
- Because you're a superhero, Charlie.
- What is a superhero?
- Okay, it'll take time.
Time is not on our side.
When will they strike again?
I hear what you're saying, but we
have to test it out before we decide.
We'll find out. I'll
choose a suitable officer.
All superheroes have an origin
story. The story of how it all began.
How we discovered your powers.
We're writing yours right now, as we speak.
Aha! There is a maternity
ward where the stardust blew in.
Now I have to find
the little child. My ticket!
And it's all about the final
showdown with a supervillain.
He does everything he can to
destroy the superhero, that is, you.
He will lure you out by
threatening innocent people.
How is that? It's often a
school bus full of children, -
- hanging over the railing of a bridge.
Or a bunch of kids stuck in a
Ferris wheel that we have to save.
Or... that you have to save.
Because... I...
My brother has superpowers,
but who am I in all of this?
Is it me? Him in the
background? The sidekick?
What's wrong with being a
sidekick? Just look at Robin.
Robin doesn't do anything. - Yeah.
He has very colorful clothes. You
should be happy for your brother.
No. You're right to be depressed. You
have to stand in your brother's shadow.
You are doomed to eternal
darkness. But there is one way to fix it.
- Don't listen to him. There are many...
- You can hear it yourself. No!
You should be the superhero.
You know how it works.
Now you need to write your manifesto.
Let's see who was born at the current time.
Like stealing candy from a child. - Yes.
But the candy gives you superpowers.
And soon you'll be superpowerful too.
You can't say "super powerful." It
sounds like you mean super thick.
Yes, the BMI man. - Bingo!
- What are you doing here?
- Isn't this a bingo hall?
No, it's a hospital. - I told you so.
Bingo halls don't look like this. We
have to run if we're going to make it.
The real superhero is the one who
takes command and solves the problem.
He can also... - Do you have a brain?
Yes. - Exactly.
A complete cop has both brains
and brawn. You have zero brawn.
You're as thin as a matchstick.
But the solution is right in front of you.
Charlie becomes your muscles. A
weapon you can use. Write it down.
I can keep Charlie's powers a secret.
Take advantage of the
fact that he trusts me.
I can take credit for
everything Charlie does.
Sabotage it for him and
prevent him from succeeding.
Now she knew who the
killer was. It was a... neighbor.
Imagine someone living so close...
Hi. I'm training Milo's night
vision. What are you doing?
I'm writing a log of Charlie's development.
Counting his breaths and
weighing his diapers. Don't you?
Yes... of course.
Absolutely. I can do that. A funnel.
A suit of course. I'm in. Hello.
- Who was it?
- My boss. I'll be right back.
- But you have Charlie today.
- It's important. I'm chosen.
- Maybe it'll turn around now.
- Hi. I can give Charlie a bottle.
He'll calm down when I do that.
We'll go for a walk. I can look after him.
Wait... How much did you pay him for that?
- It's good that they're having fun, isn't it?
- Yesterday he wanted to sell his brother.
They're not doing anything dangerous.
Where are we going? - To our hideout.
All superheroes have
a hideout and a mission.
- What is our mission?
- To catch the bad guys red-handed.
And I... we... get the
credit for catching them.
- And Dad will understand that I don't...
- What does "honor" mean?
- We'll do that later. Put it on.
- How nice.
- What does the S stand for?
- S... Sidekick.
Cool name. What's your name?
The Master! - That's cool too.
Now we need to find out your
powers. How high can you fly?
- Fly? I can't fly.
- But yesterday, when we...
Okay. We'll start with some
fighting techniques. Here.
Off! - Excuse me.
- I thought...
- I want to go home. I'm hungry.
We haven't even started.
You can eat when...
Okay. Relax. You'll get food.
So it is now. The baby is very strong, -
- so I have developed a preparation
that causes the strength to decrease.
A kind of pre-treatment so that
you can extract the strength later.
It makes him compliant.
You didn't drink it, did you?
It's no use. Your speech
center is out of power.
Now I have it. We'll get the big brother
to get the preparation into the kid.
Not many superheroes do that.
You'll feel better soon. And
you'll be able to talk, I think.
Anton! Now you get the chance to shine.
You have to threaten to detonate a
bomb in a densely populated area.
What a chance. That sounds super fun.
But I'm an inventor. I want to be shot.
That's the point. - How sick. I'm in.
Wait. Now I got the best idea. - What?
- He'll do it instead.
- Do you think he wants to?
Sure. Otherwise he would
have said so. He's not paralyzed.
Then we say it. He does it.
It was close. What's up?
Why are you looking at me like
that? Stop it, it's uncomfortable!
You're a good student, Charlie.
It's okay if you can't fly yet.
But we can test a lot of other forces.
Shooting with ice, laser beams,
force fields, dimensional shifts, -
- X-ray vision, elasticity,
becoming invisible, becoming...
- Do you see what I see?
- I can try to see what you see.
Just look with your eyes. Can
you see the brand on the truck?
It's the same thing.
We'll follow! - I'm not trained.
We can't train anymore.
What should we do? It's going too slowly.
Yes, he stopped!
Isn't that the minister? - Hello.
- Move, I'm busy.
- Are you on a secret mission?
No, he's playing mother,
father and child. Nice shirt.
- Does M stand for "mite"?
- Can I try on the shirt?
Stop it! - Hey, hey.
- What kind of cute little guy is that?
- I didn't want to tease him.
What does he do then? Shit in his pants?
What are you doing?
Of!
My nose. It's my best feature,
says mother. It must not be broken.
We're running away.
Of!
What?
Flot, Charlie!
No... we'll never get there.
Yes, we do. Jump up. - What?
This doesn't feel dignified!
Good, Charlie! It's going really fast!
There it is! - That was clever, huh?
- It would be better to fly.
- Are you never satisfied?
Here comes the engine!
Climb up! - How good!
Oh no!
Watch out for the sign!
Okay, now I know what it feels like to fly.
Where are we?
He's behind the car. Now we can jump down.
Jump down!
Well, there you were.
No, there's still a smell. Then
there's something in the car.
- It's a regular garbage dump.
- Look there. Where is that car going?
Did you see the hole in the
side? It was from the forklift.
We are on the right track.
There they are.
Welcome.
We have to go in there.
It won't work, but I'll try.
No access.
No, wrong biometrics. Damn it
too. We'll have to wait until the next...
Yes, or you can lift the door off.
That's a slightly different approach.
Here is all the loot.
Everything people have lost.
- What does that mean?
- We're on the right track.
- Look at the suits! Exoskeletons!
- It's pretty dark in here.
They must have used the
loot to make this equipment.
But why? - What?
Where are you going now? - Uh...
We don't have to go down there. - Wow...
Shouldn't we go back to the hideout?
No, we're getting into the creepy.
- This is where they do the cases.
- So we've seen it.
- Check. Then we can go home.
- Don't you understand how big this is?
- We'll see what it is.
- Shall we? It's creepy.
What? - Someone's coming.
It's unfair. I was paralyzed.
Can't he do it himself?
It'll be fine. - It looks like a bomb.
It's easy for you to say.
You shouldn't be shot.
- I want to go home to mom and dad.
- What? Not now.
Yes, you get such a warm feeling
when you get a hug from your mother.
You shouldn't trust adults.
They always fail in the end.
One day you are the most important
thing, the next you are worthless.
So avoid the hot emotions.
They are their weapon.
It's best not to trust anyone. Only me.
- No, you shouldn't cry now.
- I can't resist the impulse.
Yes, you can.
What is it?
What? - The kid!
That's them! Now we get them!
Stay here!
Uh? But...
Where are you going, Rolle?
The kids are going up there!
Can you reach my cell
phone? Dad has to pick us up.
I can try.
Good! - That was close!
Take the ball!
- Hurry up.
- I hate climbing on an empty stomach.
Isn't that the baby who
smashed us last time? Hey!
- Do you want to fight them again?
- Preferably not.
- Then why are we running after them?
- I don't know.
No, they're gone.
Should we tell the boss? - Nothing.
- Burger?
- Yeah. Maybe I should try ungulates.
- It sounds like Source machino.
- What is it?
A tickling machine that takes
over my body. I have to tickle!
Oh no. - Source machino, Source machino!
Far!
- They were at the school. I'll call.
- Listen, Dad.
- Where have you been?
- We found the villains' headquarters.
Now you have to stop. It's great
that you want to be with your brother.
- But Charlie is a baby.
- What are you wearing?
We might have to buy
them here if I do well.
But it's difficult when I have to babysit.
- It's the same. Now I'm in.
- No, not a pill.
It has a wild anti-theft feature.
I know how it all works. - Quiet.
An attack at the amusement
park. A masked man as seen before.
I'll take that.
- Don't believe it. It's a trap.
- I don't want to hear any more.
But we saw... - Now you have to be quiet.
What's happening? - Mom!
Let's see. Damn it too.
- I want to come.
- You stay here. Dad has to work.
But that's my business
too. I've cleared it all up.
Be careful!
Run!
- I'm dangerous and I have a gun!
- Calm down now.
It's a bomb. And we have civilians there.
How high up we are!
I like you, Wille. You
are sweet and thoughtful.
Thoughtful. - You care about me.
You will help me get better
without thinking about yourself.
I want to be just like you when I grow up.
Now I'm not big. - You're bigger than me.
Charlie, there's
something I have to tell you.
I haven't been completely
honest. I'm not that thoughtful.
- I wanted to take advantage of...
- Can we get a report?
It's a ticking time bomb. A
lot of children are in danger.
Come on, we have to go there. - No.
- Dad said we should stay here.
- Did you get lactose poisoning?
- He has a higher rank.
- Then I'll do it myself.
- I need backup.
- You have the suit. You can handle it.
There is one villain. He
is masked and armed...
Hello! - He's discovered me.
Maybe because I'm talking too loud.
Wait. He's pointing the gun at me now.
Use the new weapon. - Well, the weapon.
- I forgot it. I'll get it.
- Are you kidding?
Wait! Where are you going? - The bomb!
I need my weapon. Where is Wille...
How are you? Can you hear me?
I have to play the role of evil.
That doesn't sound believable.
It's difficult with that suit.
Boo! I look like a walking
puddle. Where did the cop go?
Wake up! Are you
listening? Society needs you.
Wake up, you fool!
You shouldn't sleep now!
Av. You asked me. You could
sense that Dad was going to wake up.
You're a hero, Charlie. Do
you understand? Wait here.
The bomb is not loaded.
If someone tries something,
I try something too.
So it's not a good idea to try anything!
Put down the gun, or I'll shoot!
Now it's happening.
It's going to hurt again.
Yes, it did. Off! Mother!
How tacky!
This is what happens when
you meet Sweden's best...
Bombs!
Okay, let's see.
Red or blue? I learned that once.
I'll take red. No, now I took
blue. And that was good.
I'm still here. The danger is over!
The bomb is defused! - Hurray!
I have saved you!
The wave of crimes is now over.
We can sleep soundly thanks to this duo.
Yes, and thanks to this amazing weapon.
Hadn't the hero come in the new suit, -
- then the children would
not have lived any longer.
I would also like to thank my son Charlie.
Thanks to him... - Charlie? Quiet, Milo.
It wouldn't have happened without him.
He sensed the danger and wanted to warn me.
Yes... And the weapon. Fantastic.
Have the police been reinforced
by a little Super Charlie?
- Yes, you can...
- You also had an older son here.
Yes, but I'm a little unsure
where he is. How far is he?
Look, here he comes.
Shit, you stink, Wille. - Hey, kid.
I know your secret and I know how you feel.
- What do you mean? Who are you?
- Your little brother has superpowers.
You don't have to stand in his
shadow. You can also get superpowers!
How? - Science. I'm a researcher.
Great for you, but I'll manage.
- What if I threaten your life?
- No, thank you.
He will come back.
It's not so healthy to look at it anymore.
- I've been named Officer of the Year!
- Is that true? It's well deserved.
Yes, and the city will buy the
equipment. Thanks to me and Charlie.
What about the skate park, the
swimming pool and everything else?
What good are playgrounds if
you don't dare to play on them?
- The city needs security and me.
- It's a bluff!
- I can prove it! Listen!
- I can't take it.
- Mom, you believe me, right?
- Forget it now.
Can't you be happy that
dad is a hero for once?
Nobody understands. They've got
the wrong guy. He's a henchman.
The explosive charge was not activated.
Why would they detonate bombs?
So far it has been thefts. Now it
was in front of thousands of people.
They wanted people to see it.
And no one was going to get hurt.
They just wanted to lure Dad there.
But why?
Why was Dad the first on the scene?
Weren't there any patrols closer?
We have to storm their hideout
before the police buy the suit! Come on!
"I can take advantage
of Charlie trusting me."
You must not read it!
"Take credit for everything Charlie does.
Sabotage it for him and
prevent him from succeeding."
- That doesn't apply anymore.
- I trusted you.
But you were right. You
shouldn't trust anyone.
I can't do it without you.
- Don't give up.
- I'm not following your advice.
- It didn't go well last time.
- You can prove everyone wrong.
- It's not working. No one is listening to me.
- Hello. Are you meeting?
How lucky. Then you can get my input.
- You know where the bad guys are.
- I can't do it without Charlie.
It's unfair. He's a baby and
doesn't need superpowers.
- Imagine if you had gotten them.
- Yes, but how would that work?
Here I am again. What did I miss?
Don't fold me there.
ANTON EVIL SCIENTISHow cozy. Welcome.
I had a feeling you'd show up.
So I get the superpowers, but
isn't that dangerous for Charlie?
No, of course not.
Okay, I'll do it.
You have made a very wise choice.
What should I do? - It's quite simple.
You just have to give him this.
I'm doing this for everyone's
sake. Only I can save the city.
- It's up to me now.
- You shouldn't give him...
Now it will be like this.
Today, the ceremony will be held with
several hundred officers and their families.
The city also signs the contract
with the supplier of the new equipment.
- Do you want to hear the speech?
- How long is it?
Maybe it should be shortened.
What?
Hello? Charlie? Ask.
Stan-pow, stan-pow...
What have I done?
Mom! He can't talk! - Who?
Charlie! - No, he's four weeks old.
You don't understand. He's got...
- I can't tell you...
- You have to come. Change your clothes now.
- You never want to join in on anything.
- Fine.
Would you like to join us? If so...
- I'm going crazy. Were we like this?
- Find my pants before I cry.
I have to hurry. I'll see you there.
You'll be picked up by a limousine.
How fancy. - Yeah, that's kind of funny.
A limousine? I'm changing clothes.
Luck up!
- You have to help me!
- Has he received the medicine?
Something is wrong. What's
happening to my brother?
The remedy works slowly. First the
strength decreases and then the speech.
- In the end, he's like a baby.
- You have to change it!
I might be able to, but I don't want to.
- Now the snowball is rolling.
- You little... rat!
Now I'm going to the ceremony
and steal Charlie's powers.
So we must hope he survives.
Over... Survive?
Yes, you did well. - Thank you.
- And thanks for the limousine.
- The limousine?
Excuse me. Would you like to
give a lecture on your method?
I have no method. I want my
children to have a normal life.
The child seat is in front
of me. Oh, he's sleeping.
Yes, like that.
Mom! Charlie! Don't drive
with him! Get out of the car!
Vent!
Stands! Stands...
Damn it too. No, no, no!
Oh no. Is the bike broken? - What?
Yes.
You can borrow my bike. - Thank you.
- We'll take a picture.
- Yes, there they are!
The most...
You have to go! He's evil!
He wants to steal your powers!
I should get a prize.
- Shoot him with a laser!
- I can't do that.
The powers... don't work.
I... tired.
You can't sleep now.
Watch out! Move!
Where are you going? - Let me in.
- My father should get a prize.
- Get out of here.
Charlie is going on stage
so I can take him backstage.
Trust me. I'm the kind
of person you can trust.
- Yes, he's going on stage...
- Mom, don't let him take Charlie!
- Where are you going with Charlie?
- Nowhere.
Your wife asked me to look after
him. The little bandit is asleep.
Good. Then you come in
with him when I introduce him.
No, he's dangerous! Stop him! Hello!
No, no, no. Where are they?
Yes, there he is!
No, it's locked!
To think that I have been waiting
for this moment for 50 years.
50 years! That's a long time.
Yes, but...
Shit, I have to get Charlie out of there.
Let's see. The container there.
Then we just have to activate it.
Such.
It's too tight. No!
Now nothing can stop me. Now...
What? Where did the container go?
Yes, it must be usable. It will be good.
May I introduce the officer of the
year! Give him a big round of applause!
Yes. Yes.
Thank you and thank you.
I want to thank my wife and my
children. Especially little Charlie...
I don't know where he is, -
- but let me tell you
how I caught the villain.
Anton!
I need a pen. - Please.
Remember to equip the suit with a pen.
What is it? A juicer? A latte machine?
You could say that. - How delicious.
Give it to me. - No.
Are you saying no to Inferio? - No...
Good. Then say yes. - Then yes.
And give me the coffee.
Now I have superpowers,
and I will destroy you!
Now the tyranny is over!
You shall taste my wrath!
- Have you gone crazy?
- Yes, maybe, but I feel fine.
Fall down. Then we'll have to come
up with a suitable punishment later.
No. I was about to forget.
I was supposed to be super
strong. What happened?
Now we have to get out of
here. But what do we do with this?
Your powers are in it. Or yours?
Nobody says it's yours just
because... We could share.
If I take half... I'll
take it all because...
Yes, that's how we do it. It's fair.
It... was... me...
It was me who...
Mom came home today
with my new little brother.
I like you.
You can talk too. Of course. - Of course.
You're cute. - Source machino!
You care about me. You
want to help me get better.
- Without thinking about yourself.
- Sidekick.
Now it begins.
Have the police been reinforced
by a little Super Charlie?
- But... who am I in all this?
- You're bigger than me.
What am I thinking about?
You need strength. Drink now.
- Now we've come to the important part.
- Can you say something?
- We have to sign the contract.
- Oh no! I'll be right there.
Then I'll sign... - Wait! Don't sign!
You've caught the wrong villain! You're
going to deal with the right villain!
The equipment is built from
electronics he stole from us!
Wille. Do you want to ruin
this moment for your father?
He's caught the villain,
and we're here to celebrate.
It's not your fault, father, but we
haven't caught the villain, Inferio.
You had to succeed, so
we needed his weapon.
Boring! Out!
You must not sign! That's what he wants!
Who is this Inferio that you speak of?
You.
No! You mustn't touch it!
Oops! No...
Like this! Yes, yes. Now you have to...
You don't touch my son, or I'll...
You were absolutely
right. People need a threat.
It unites like a warm campfire
that you can gather around.
And I can offer that threat.
But I can also offer the rescue.
The battle between good
and evil, and I control both.
It's a win-win situation... for me.
So now the two of us
are going on a little trip.
Unfortunately, it will be
a one-way trip. For you.
Will!
We are very high up!
It's nothing personal,
but I'll let you go now.
Otherwise, they'll never
understand that I'm serious. Hey, hey.
No!
- Wuhu! You can fly!
- Of course! I'm Sidekick!
No, I'm the Sidekick.
Wille! Charlie!
All my life I have longed for
someone who can measure up to me.
No one understands how lonely
it has been to have superpowers -
- without being able to
use them against anyone.
When I face an opponent with strength, -
- then it's a small baby
who can't compare to...
The kid wants to play!
What?
Now the bells have rung for you!
What?
So it must be a family trip!
It costs a little extra. - Let me go!
There you are. Mom and
Dad want to leave without you.
They need some alone time! - No!
Watch out, Charlie!
That should be enough. Isn't it funny?
Like riding in an elevator, but
just backwards and sideways.
It was the shortest superhero
career I've ever seen.
Use a superpower!
Any one! - It hurts.
Don't be so harsh. He's a baby
who's just getting his powers.
It takes time to learn to control
them as perfectly as I can.
But now, unfortunately, I must
put an end to you, little friend.
But which power should I choose?
Maybe the latest one I've discovered.
Shrinkage. What would happen
if I made you even smaller?
Who threw it? - It was me.
You? That was very stupid.
I still have superpowers.
I don't think they feel smaller
just because I'm smaller.
Boring that it had to end like this.
The most...
What's happening? What?
Put me down! I'm not a pet!
Or am I? Lock me out! At least in the zoo!
No. Not a pill.
- But I want it.
- Superpowers have to be earned.
Now I'm going to hypnotize you so
you forget everything you've seen.
Hypnosis? What...
Yes... You did. May I ask
where the story came from?
You won't believe it,
but my son Wille told it.
I thought of something. There must be
a shot of superpowers in the machine.
It must not fall into the wrong
hands. We must go there...
What a fantasy. Is it
too early to sign him?
Seriously. Is that it?
