As Helen adjusted to married wife after their kids were born, while Bob was struggling to normal life and longed for the days he was allowed to help people as a hero. Because Helen had excepted that part of their lives was over, Bob was forced to hide his secret Super acts from her. Even though she is aware of it and scolds him for doing, as it leads to their covers being blown and having to relocate. Bob being unhappy with civilian life had caused him and Helen to be out of sink during dinner conversions. While Helen wants Bob to be happy with his insurance job, as it still has him helping people without breaking the Super banned law. Along with wanting her husband to be part of their children's life in the present, rather than trying to relive the glory days of the past

After he got fired from his job Bob didn't want to tell Helen, from how he how offered a chance to be Mr. Incredible again. Helen had tried to get Bob to put for his office for dinner, while he was being given the offer. While telling his wife that the voice she heard was the TV and had he wanted to finish watching it, before joining them. This got Helen to assume that Bob is a distracted person. She also knows that while he hates his job, him staying at it meant a lot to her. With his "new job" being top secret, Bob tells Helen that the insurance company was sending him to a conference as a cover story. The lie makes Helen believe that Bob was doing well at his job and is happy for him.

Being back in the hero game filled Bob with joy and began to act like the husband and father Helen wants him to be. With Bob working to lose weight and is making much more money, that allowed him to buy new cars for the both of them. Helen didn't suspect anything was wrong, until she noticed a silver hair strand on one of his suits and leaves the house after getting a call from another woman. Bob saying the caller was from the conference when she asked him who it was, while leaving out the part that she had listened to part of the call. Soon after Helen saw the patch job on his old hero suit and then learns that he was fired from the insurance company two months ago, her fear of him having an affair behind her back grew. With was encouragement with Edna, who gets Helen to see that Bob was keeping secrets from her, Helen decided to go looking for him. Thanks to the new homing device Edna placed in his new suit, that she had also made matching sets for the rest of their family.

Once Mr. Incredible discovered what his fan was up to and came across the fields he has on other Supers, Mr. Incredible checks the file he has on Elastigirl to see if they knew who and where she is. He was revealed to see that they didn't and that she was currently safe from them. From how he lost the last "test subject" for the robot that is set to attack the city close to their home. Helen unknowingly got her husband captured when she activated his suit's homing device. When Syndrome informs Mr. Incredible of the comment plain heading towards the island, he had no idea that his wife and children were on it until he heard her voice over the transmission. He begged Syndrome to call off the missiles, but he refused to put of spite. Making Mr. Incredible believe that his family was dead after hearing Mirage tell Syndrome that the plain was destroyed. While Elastigirl and the kids had managed to survive and the attack on them has Elastigirl realising that her husband is in danger. She goes searching for him, after leaving her kids to hide in a cave.

By the time she reached his cell, she catches him hugging another woman. Who had just freed Mr. Incredible and given him the news that his family is alive. To show Elastigirl that it wasn't what she thought and that he loves her, he pulls his angry wife into a kiss and then tells her that he could never betray the perfect woman. The two then go to find their kids, after learning that they have triggered the interior alert. Elastigirl scolds her husband for lying to her for the last two months, while Mr. Incredible tells her that he is sorry and that he is glad that she is alive. After they found their kids, Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl reconnected as they thought the guards, as it brought back the energy that brought them together. Even though they all got captured by Syndrome, Elastigirl lets her husband share his thoughts of not noticing what he has, before letting him know that Violet is free and will be freeing the rest of them.

The thought that he had lost them had Mr. Incredible not wanting to lose them again. That is why he wanted to face Syndrome's alone, not because he works alone or wants to relive the glory days. Elastigirl responds to his confession by kissing him. To show her husband that he doesn't have to do things anymore and together they are strong. Elastigirl's point gets proven as they use teamwork, as well as his experience with the robot to save the city. Elastigirl makes sure that they have a clear shot for Mr. Incredible's plan to destroy it.
