Meeting 'Gadget' and Reunion With Shego
Robocop and company arrive at James and Sheila's house. They see an unmarked Police car there and Robocop traces it to 'Gadget'. He smiles widely as he recalls how she had come up in the world.
From an orphan that constantly ran away from Family Services, to an adopted daughter to his Watch Commander, Sgt. Stanley Parks, to an accomplished investigator at a young age, to a Detective with the Detroit Police Department.
He, Rufus on his shoulder, Kim, Ron and their children leave the Hummer, Robocop carrying a car seat, and they walk up to the front door. Robocop knocks on the door and sees 'Gadget'.
She smiles widely and says, "Hello, Commander. Long time, no see." She hugs Robocop and he returns the hug, chuckling as lightly as possible.
He then says, "Detective Banks, I'd like you to meet Ron and Kim Stoppable, their children and their naked mole rat, Rufus. Ron, Kim, Rufus, this is Detective 'Gadget' Banks. She's an old friend of mine." He turns to 'Gadget' and asks, "How's Josh Avery doing these days, 'Gadget'?"
'Gadget' grins and replies, "Josh is doing fine, Murphy. He sends his regards, by the way."
Robocop nods and says, "Tell him I said likewise, if you please." 'Gadget' nods and giggles, knowing exactly what Josh and Robocop had gone through one night so long ago.
One night, during a ride along, Robocop and the late Chairman of OCP were out on the town, so the Chairman could see what kind of effects the policy of OCP has on Old Detroit. During their ride-along, they came across a family in trouble with a group of ruthless scavengers called 'Stompers'.
Robocop was badly damaged when a truck crashed into him. The family they had come across were the Averys and Josh was in a real bad way. Josh's Father was able to do crude repairs to Robocop's damaged relay systems and Robocop was able to fight back.
Even the Chairman saw some action, knocking a 'Stomper' silly. When the battle was over, Josh was loaded into a Police Tactical Ambulance and transported to the Omni-Mediplex, where OCP picked up the tab for a new operation.
However, this story was far from over. On the verge of the operation, Josh's new lungs were stolen by organ brokers. It seems his first lung transplant was ruined because he had been given diseased lungs from a woman that had lung cancer and died from it. Detective Lisa Madigan, Robocop's partner, investigated and found a Doctor was partly responsible for Josh's predicament. In the end, the new lungs were safe and the brokers were apprehended. Josh made a full recovery and the Chairman was delighted.
Josh's Father, Joe Avery, was an inventor and invented various items that sometimes worked. However, one invention peaked the Chairman's interest. It seems Joe had created Turbo Generators. These were generators that would run on anything and provide power for a small dwelling.
Joe and the Chairman talked, a deal was struck and the Averys made enough money to buy a new house and car. Mr. Avery even took a job with a company that OCP was in charge of as a design engineer. Josh's recovery has been steady ever since. He had met 'Gadget' when they were going to high school and dated ever since.
'Gadget' comes back to the present and sighs. She then says, "Ms. Gomez is waiting for you inside, Commander." She nods at Rufus, Kim and Ron, smiling at the triplets in adoration.
Robocop catches this and asks, "What are their names?"
Ron smiles and replies, "The one you're holding is Julie and the other two are Andrew and Edward. They're mostly identical except for one thing. Their eyes are the only way to tell them apart. Andrew has green eyes while Edward has brown. Right now, it's hard to tell which one KP and I are holding, given they're asleep."
Robocop nods and his vision flashes back to when James was a baby. It was his Baptism and Nancy Murphy is smiling widely. She then says, "You're going to grow up big and strong. Just like your Daddy." His vision flashes back to the present and he sees two of the triplets opening their eyes. He determines which is which and he waves at the boys, smiling as he does so. The boys smile and giggle at the cyborg, kicking up their legs in excitement.
Rufus, Kim and Ron smile at them and hear Julie stirring, hoping she'll have the same reaction. They see her look up and reach her arms up, wanting to touch Robocop's helmet. Robocop turns the car seat around and brings her up close to his face, allowing her to touch his helmet. Her eyes tear up as she strokes his helmet, dipping her fingers into his visor. She then smiles a bright smile, clearly from hearing his body humming.
Kim, Rufus and Ron shrug and hear a familiar voice. "Kimmy, Rufus, Ron. How good it is to see you guys again!" They look up and see Sheila, wearing her old outfit, back when she was Shego. Sheila smiles warmly at them as she comes downstairs and sees the triplets. Her jaw drops in shock and amazement as she gets a good look at them.
She then hugs Kim, chuckles and says, "They're beautiful, you two. I know that couldn't have been easy for you, Kimmy. Carrying all those little rugrats inside you." She turns, sees Ron with his cane, hugs him and says, "Ron, you look well. Being a Father must have changed you a little bit."
Ron, returning the hug, shrugs and replies, "Only just a little. After all, I do have a destroyed knee inside me, so I have to keep my leg stiff at all times." Rufus leaps from Robocop's shoulder and clambers onto Sheila's shoulder, causing her to giggle with joy.
Sheila says, "I guess you missed me as well, Rufus." Rufus grins and nods happily. Sheila then smiles and nods in sympathy, saying, "At least Motor Ed paid for his crime, along with Drakken and the rest of his Consortium. Thinking of, have you heard from Killigan lately?"
Kim shakes her head no and says, "He's a little busy, playing on the PGA circuit. I'd say those anger management courses are really paying off for him. His shoulder still bothers him from time to time, given that Drakken stabbed him there. But he's muddling through."
Sheila nods and laughs. She then sighs and says, "Let's hope I remember how to do this." She concentrates and her hands light up. She grins and says, "Shego's back and she's ready for duty, Commander Murphy. Mission, rescuing my Fiance and your son. I'm not taking no for an answer either. Very much like Kimmy and Ron looked out for each other, it will be my pleasure to do the same for James and you."
Robocop nods in agreement and says, "Let's see the plans for the building he was working on." At that, they all go to James' office, carrying the triplets in their car seats.
