They find a secret chamber which contains a hoard of hi-tech weapons and armor, their superhero dreams become reality. They use these weapons to get back at the bullies as well as to fulfill some superhero fantasies.

But the alien owners are alerted to the discovery, and return to claim their property in a bid to use it to wipe out humanity. The aliens enlist the help of one of the bullies, Monty (Jerrod Cornish)., to get the alien equipment back.
