Summary
It's been twenty years since the Bad Boys - a superhero team of three children - broke up. More accurately, it's been twenty years since Parrot, the former leader of the Bad Boys, announced his departure, and he hasn't been seen since.
Grian's perfectly happy without dwelling on his past. As it turns out, though, his past isn't very happy with him. With old villains coming out of the woodwork, Grian has to reach back out to two old friends he never wanted to see again - his Bad Boys. After all, the fate of innocents depends on it.

Summary
“He’s lost his mind,” Grian says, throwing his hands in the air.
“Grian,” he scolds.
“Why is this so casual for you? You said you were deteriorating in the same way you asked for a second cup of tea this morning.”
“I don’t know why it’s difficult to accept. Like, it’s a thing, it’s happening.”
“Might as well let it run its course,” Grian mocks.
“Exactly. Might as well see where it leads. Everyone is so concerned about me; it’s left no room for myself to feel concerned. I actually feel pretty fine? Like, other than the glasses, and the carrots, and uhm, whatever else, nothing’s very different.”
It doesn’t feel completely true as it leaves his mouth, but Mumbo holds firm under Grian’s hot stare.
