“Actually, I’d been working on my super secret, super complicated micro-thingy for a while. I was still perfecting it, and I was pretty sure it wasn’t ready yet, but I needed it to save the city, so I figured it was time to field test it. So I called Chip. I told you Chip was always up for anything, but there was another reason he was perfect for this job. You know that chipped tooth he has? It’s actually a false tooth. He can take it out anytime! (He often does this to freak out little kids.) So I attached the Computerized Heroic Incredible Person micro-thingy to the back of Chip’s false tooth, and he put the tooth back in his mouth.”

In your face!” He grabbed his phone and tweeted: “Love to all my fans who voted for me! #MaximumAwesomeness.” Jonas prayed that Jett wouldn’t look up and see him. He still clung tight to the cable, and he looked down to Jett and the floor below. Then he got an idea. Glancing forward to the waiting Rascal at the end of the beam, he motioned for Rascal to come. Rascal walked up to Jonas, and Jonas carefully picked him up. Jonas looked down again at Jett who was singing softly to himself and doing a little dance as he headed into the kitchen. Now was Jonas’s chance. He secured the cable unit to his spy belt, and he got ready to let himself down. But then – POP! – a Champagne cork flew by his head! Below, Jett came back into the room carrying a bottle of Champagne. But Jonas was startled by the cork, and he clumsily slipped off of the beam! He almost dropped Rascal as he swung and slammed against the wall! Jett looked up in shock to see Jonas and Rascal swinging back and forth! “Whoa!” He dropped his Champagne bottle. SMASH! Jonas struggled to get the cable to let out, but he just succeeded in”
