Hey Everyone! A big thanks to everyone who reviewed Chapter 3! I am sorry that this chapter is rather short, but it was the best stopping point before our next adventure. But don't worry. Tilly may be a geneticist, but she nows her kids, or at least her husband's technology within them. Tilly wasn't originally the antagonist of this story, but her questionable actions are going to make things difficult for her in this story.

LoveShipper: Oh yeah, she is walnuts, cashews, and peanuts all mixed together. Donald has every right to be scared.

Dirtkid123: Tilly's future actions may not be agreeable, but you may be pleasantly surprised. If not, eh sorry.

TheMeepyFreak: There is love there, also within the entire family. One of my favorite parts in writing stories like this is getting to make all those developments and angles in their relationships.

power214063 and khfan55: For whether or not the triton app will work, you will just have to wait and see! At first she is going to use it in a way you won't suspect.

Disclaimer: I do not own Lab Rats.

Tilly's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the closet door.

"Tilly, I know you're in there," Douglas said through the door.

Tilly quickly shoved the remote in her purse before she opened the door ever so slightly. "How did you know?"

Douglas smiled. "I have been married to you for over 20 years, I will always find you," he said, walking into the closet.

Tilly closed the door behind him, taking deep breaths.

"Tilly, I need you to listen to me. I know your upset, but we have to remember that it is not the kids fault that they grew up without us," Douglas told her.

"I know," Tilly grimaced. "It is Donald's fault,"

"Yes it is. But that was 16 years ago. I sure that once you calm down, we could go talk with Donald civilly and get some closure on the topic," Douglas suggested.

"Closure?! I did not come here to get closure Douglas, I came here to get our kids back!" Tilly exclaimed.

"And how do you plan on doing that? You know I spent years trying to get them back, and most of my efforts only drove them farther away. Now I am their fun-loving uncle. And that is as close as I am probably going to get," Douglas sighed.

"How can you be okay with that?" Tilly asked.

Douglas took a deep breath. "Because I finally realized that the only other alternative was to be the evil biological father who they hate. I am may not be their number one father, but at least I get to be part of their lives now,"

"But what if-"

"What ifs only make it worse T," Douglas interrupted. "I know you want them back, but for now our best option is just to be here for them. Why don't you put your efforts into getting to know them and building relationships with them instead of trying to destroy Donald,"

"That won't be easy," Tilly muttered.

Douglas nodded. "I know. But at least we have each other now. It is going to be okay," he said, carefully moving the strands of brown hair from her face.

Tilly leaned her head on his chest. "I guess you are right. I did marry a genius,"

Douglas smiled, wrapping his arms around her. "Yes you did,"

The sweet moment was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Is someone in there?" Adam asked.

Douglas opened the door. "Do you need something Adam?"

Adam shook his head. "Naw, I just heard whispering from the closet and got curious," he replied. He looked at Tilly. "Are you okay?"

Tilly wiped away the tears from her face. "Yeah, I am fine,"

"But you don't look fine," Adam said innocently.

Tilly couldn't but giggle a little.

"It has just been a long day Adam," Douglas said.

Adam nodded in agreement. "Oh I know, first I learn what hot dogs are really made of, and then I get stuck in the elevator again, and then I meet my long lost mother,"

Douglas smirked. "Yep. Rough day,"

Adam looked at Tilly. "Must have been a rough day for you too. Want to see me blow up 50 balloons in one minute?"

"Um, sure," Tilly replied cheerfully.

Douglas pulled his beeping cell phone from his pocket. "Donnie needs my help with something, will you two be okay on your own?" he asked.

"I think we will be just fine," Tilly grinned, gripping her purse unnoticeably.

"Come on, I have it set up in the training area," Adam said, turning to the door.

Tilly followed Adam to the training rain. She had heard a lot about Adam's lack of intelligence, but she was rather impressed with his ballon blowing contraption. "Wow Adam, did you make this all by yourself,"

"Yep," Adam grinned. "I am not as dumb as I look. Just almost as dumb,"

Tilly put her hands on his shoulder which she must admit, was a bit of a stretch. "Adam, you are not dumb. You may not have a genius level IQ or billion dollar company, but you have a big heart, and when you put your mind to it, you can do anything," she promised.

"Thanks," Adam said, a small smile threatening to escape. Instead, a yawn did.

"You must be tired, it has been a really long day," Tilly said. She reached in to give him a hug.

Adam stepped back a bit. "What are you doing?" he asked innocently.

Tilly raised an eyebrow. "I just wanted to give you hug good night. I hope that is okay," she murmured.

Adam grinned and gave her a big hug. "It's more than okay. Good night Mom,"

Tilly hugged him back tightly, having to lift her heels a little. "Good night Adam,"

Adam let go, giving Tilly a little wave before leaving for the mentor quarters.

The moment he left the room, Tilly exploded, "Yes!" she cheered, kicking up her knee.

Tilly smiled to herself. "You were right Douglas. It will take some time to get my kids back. But it will also take some scheming,"

*Suspenseful Music* What do you think Tilly's next move is going to be? Go in for a blind attack? Or Gather intel and slyly make her moves. Thanks for reading and especially reviewing. Reviews make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and motivates me to write. ~Azula.
