It has been 2 months since the Russo family came home from their Tipton family vacation as they keep looking at the chest that was in the Tipton safe holding the note for the next clue meaning London let them take it home to help solve the next clues

"We've been looking at this chest for 2 months now." Max says

"I know but I'm trying to see if it'll lead us to the next clue." Alex said

Justin and Theresa enter the scene

"Guys come look in the hidden room." Justin says

Flip scene

"The hole in the wall. It's the same shape as that chest." Said Theresa

"Well put it in!" Yelled Max

Alex does this and soon enough a wall rises with a new note

"Took you Russo's long enough to find the next clue. I've hidden the next clues in a recently published book but good luck finding which one it is. Game on!" Alex reads

"Don't we know someone who writes books?" Justin asked

"Harper! I got to call her!" Alex says

Alex gets out her phone and calls Harper

"Harper how fast can you get to my old house?" Alex asked

Soon enough Harper walks in as the audience cheers

"Is this fast enough?!" Harper says

"How did you get in?" Theresa asked

"I have a spare key." Harper replied

"Wow now it really is like a big family reunion." Max said

"Aw you consider me family?" Harper asked

"Don't push it!" Max yelled

"So what happened to your dad again?" Harper asked

"Dominic returned as a cyborg and kidnapped dad. Now we have to solve these stupid dumb ass clues so save him." Alex replied

"He said the next clue was in a recently published book." Justin says

"Weird because just last week I wrote out a new book and it's based off a story about you guys and your crazy antics." Harper says

"Great so where is it?" Theresa asked

"At my new apartment which is an hour away from here." Harper replied

"Everyone in the car. It's time to solve the next clue to get dad home!" Alex says

Flip scene to the dark lair where Jerry is all tied up and gagged in a chair

"I have to say, Jerry your family sure is taking their sweet ass time to find you." Cyborg Dominic says

Jerry tries to say something but can't due to his mouth being covered up

"What was that?" Cyborg Dominic asked and lowers the mouth gag

"I said you're stupid for being a cyborg." Jerry says

"Yeah well we'll see about that when I do this!" Cyborg Dominic says

"Huh?" Jerry asked

And at that moment, Cyborg Dominic stabs Jerry with an injector causing Jerry to fall unconscious leaving behind a little stab in his body with the audience oohing

"Night night Russo. See ya when you're evil." Cyborg Dominic says as he throws on a mind control helmet on an unconscious Jerry which will turn him evil as we cut to Harper's apartment

"This is a neat place you got here." Said Max

"Thank you." Harper says

"Now where's this book you published?" Justin asked

"Right here." Harper replied as she grabs her book off her shelf

"Excellent now open it so we can find details for the next clue that's hidden." Alex says

Justin sees a book titled "How to Survive a Global Pandemic for 3 Years"

"You wrote a book called 'How to Survive a Global Pandemic for 3 Years?'" Justin asked

"Yes, you never know when an incident like that is going to happen." Harper replies and looks to the camera for 5 seconds obviously referring to the Covid-19 pandemic

We now cut back to the dark lair where an evil Jerry walks in with an evil smirk on his face

"I'm back, master." Evil Jerry says

"Did you put hidden rockets in their house?" Cyborg Dominic asked

"Yes, master." Evil Jerry says

"Good now how about I use my wand to give you an evil superpower?" Cyborg Dominic asked

"I'd love that, master." Evil Jerry replies

"Now which power do you want?" Cyborg Dominic asked

"To shoot laser blasts out of my hands, master." Evil Jerry replied

"Excellent choice." Cyborg Dominic says as he uses his wand to zap Evil Jerry thus giving him his new power with the audience oohing as we cut back to the others

"Man we spend 2 hours looking in this dumb book and we haven't found nothing!" Justin says

"Dumb? It took me months to write this out to get published." Harper says

"Maybe the hidden clue is with the words of the book." Theresa said

Alex waves her wand around

"Find a spell that will help us find the hidden details for our next clue." Alex says

Soon enough the works dark, hidden and evil lair are now glowing

"Hey some words are glowing." Max says

"So we have dark, hidden and evil lair." Theresa says

"How the hell does this help us with anything?" Justin asked

"Maybe Dominic has dad trapped in a hidden lair somewhere." Alex replies

"But which one?" Harper asked

"Guess we have to find out by checking them all out." Max says

"I don't think so!" Cyborg Dominic says as he's now on Harper's TV even though nobody turned it on

"Uh who turned the TV on?" Harper asked

"You hoes think you're so smart. But let's see how smart you are when I send you all back in time and trap you in a time loop." Cyborg Dominic says

"Back in time?" Theresa asked

"Time loop?" Asked Harper

"What the hell is he talking about?" Max asked

"Fire the button my new assistant." Cyborg Dominic says

"Firing, master." Evil Jerry said

"That voice." Justin says

"New assistant?" Theresa asks

"Could it be..." Alex says but before she can finish her sentence a portal appears and sucks the remainder Russo family and Harper in as they scream in fear

"Bye bye, Russo's. I know you'll find a way back but now I got some more time to plan out my perfect revenge. Come Jerry we got work to do." Cyborg Dominic says

"Coming, Master." Evil Jerry says as the screen switches off

The Russo's and Harper are still falling in the portal causing them to go back in time

"I don't see how this will end." Harper says

"Neither will we!" Alex yelled

As they keep falling back in time from the portal, the screen fades to black thus ending it on a literal cliffhanger
