The Incredibles.Public opinion turns against superheroes—also called "Supers"—due to collateral damage from their crime-fighting activities. After several lawsuits, they are forced into civilian relocation programs. Fifteen years later, Bob and Helen Parr, formerly known as Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl, and their children Violet, Dash, and baby Jack-Jack live as a suburban family. Bob dislikes suburban life and his white-collar job, and occasionally relives his glory days with his friend Lucius Best, formerly known as Frozone, by secretly acting as vigilantes at night. One day, Bob loses his temper and job after his supervisor refuses to let him stop a mugging. Returning home, Bob finds a message from a mysterious woman named Mirage, who convinces him to become Mr. Incredible again and gives him a mission to destroy a savage tripod-like robot called the Omnidroid on the remote island of Nomanisan. Bob is able to find and destroy the Omnidroid by tricking it into ripping out its own power source. Bob finds the action and higher pay rejuvenating; he begins rigorous training while waiting for more work from Mirage. Discovering a tear in his suit, he visits superhero costume designer Edna Mode. Mode, assuming that Helen knows what Bob is doing, makes new suits for the entire family. However, she rejects Bob's request for a cape, citing the large number of Supers who perished when their capes got caught in something. Leaving for Nomanisan once again, Bob discovers that Mirage is working for Buddy Pine, a disaffected former super-fan whom Mr. Incredible had rejected as his sidekick. Having adopted the name Syndrome, he has been perfecting the Omnidroid by hiring different Supers to fight it, adding new features on the rare occasion that a Super wins. Now that it is capable of defeating Bob, Syndrome intends to send the machine to the city of Metroville; there, he will secretly manipulate its controls to defeat it in public, becoming a hero himself. Later, he will sell his inventions so everyone will become equally "super", making the term meaningless...
