Tyveculus's ongoing mission is to guarantee the safety of the 24 Elders, who one day will save the world. Because the elders' identities are not yet known, Tyveculus must defend everyone worldwide, until the 24 elders safely grow into their own powers.

Meet the superheroes and their alter egos at a lavish party where Stan Lee gives them their first lessons about the show and informed them he is looking for the "human" qualities that make superheroes great. As Lee finds three of the Heroes to be less-than-noble he decides to send one home. Up for the chop is Levity for discussing the profitability of his character; Creature for flirting with the male heroes; and Iron Enforcer for his violent tendencies and bravado. Plus Lee sets a challenge to see if they can remain be inconspicuous when in the public eye and the one that fails is sent home.

It's time for another challenge by Stan Lee where each hero has to write questions to ask each other anonymously by sending the questions via pneumatic tube to Lee. His second challenge was to save an elderly woman who was locked out her home. However, there are few obstacles in their way and one of the heroes has to leave. Challenge 3 was try on their new costumes and again, another hero was banished.

Stan Lee invites the heroes for a 'breakfast meeting' where the Dark Enforce arrives to announce he's the former Iron Enforcer. In today's challenge Lee gives the heroes $20 amd in costume they must go to the nearby cafe to get lunch and their choices would be evaluated and only two heroes pass the challenge. The next day, the heroes are tested on 'courage' where they are summoned to the roof to save a 'damsel in distress'. As they all pass, Lee has to set another challenge whereby the heroes must nominate one of the remaining heroes to be nominated.

With a new day upon them, the heroes patroll the streets of Los Angeles to do some super deeds while the Dark Enforcer interviews the heroes friends and family. There are some shocking revelations for the heroes. Three of the heroes are brought before Lee but only one is eliminated. The final four heroes are given their second challenge - to meet an interact with convicted felons while given secret tasks. Again, another two heroes were up for the chop, but who goes?

Today the heroes will face the 'toughest judges of all' when they visit Arma. J. Shull School and are introduced to 4th graders.

The second challenge they face is to stop Dark Enforcer causing havoc at Universal Studios City Walk shopping centre and the one who finds him first wins the challenge. After another eliminate, another hero must go.

Today is the crowning of the next 'Superhero' and the final hurdle is a course of competitions. They visit a stunt coordinator who worked on Spider-Man and shows them the basics for stunt fighting and how to work out on a trampoline. They then have to show if they can fly. Next, both heroes are allowed one-on-one time with Lee where they discuss they're time as heroes. Finally, Lee announces the winner....
