The Forgotten Five and their friends have been under increased scrutiny in Estero ever since Martim Palacio published his article revealing their identities and alleging they are armed and dangerous.

Then on the eve of the election, the Five get wind of a late-breaking campaign speech the President has planned at the Estero Zoo. Now that everyone knows what they look like, the kids must disguise themselves to infiltrate the zoo event and disrupt the proceedings. But it's rumored the President seeks to debut a secret threat at the rally: a super with the power to change the course of the election.
