1. This is not good.
Copy !req
2. I can't shake him!
Copy !req
3. Sentry to the challenge!
Copy !req
4. Corey, don't!
Copy !req
5. Killer move, Corey.
How'd you peg it?
Copy !req
6. Gotta go with your instincts.
Copy !req
7. Good instincts.
Copy !req
8. You just bagged the all-time high score.
Copy !req
9. Yes!
Copy !req
10. No fair! You must have
logged a gazillion hours on that game.
Copy !req
11. Maybe more.
Copy !req
12. But for the first time
I really felt it, ya know?
Copy !req
13. Like I actually was
Copy !req
14. a Sentry of the Last Cosmos.
Copy !req
15. Hey, watch it!
Copy !req
16. Or what? You gonna bop me
with a flamin' sword?
Copy !req
17. Get a life.
Copy !req
18. Jerk.
Copy !req
19. Look, if we tweak these codes,
Copy !req
20. we can design our own Sentry scenarios.
Copy !req
21. Don't you ever think of anything else?
Copy !req
22. I mean, there are other games.
Copy !req
23. Yeah, right.
Copy !req
24. Got mail?
Copy !req
25. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
26. What?
Copy !req
27. It's from Simon Harper!
Copy !req
28. The guy who created the Sentries?
No way!
Copy !req
29. Yeah! The great Wise One, himself.
Copy !req
30. He's like a god,
and he's inviting me to Sentrycroft.
Copy !req
31. To where?
Copy !req
32. His private estate.
Nobody goes there!
Copy !req
33. So what's he want with you?
Copy !req
34. State name and mission.
Copy !req
35. Corey Cavalieri.
Copy !req
36. I— I'm here to see Mr. Harper.
Copy !req
37. I'm tellin' you,
it's the ship Aaron uses in game three
Copy !req
38. to escape from Palothera.
Copy !req
39. It totally is not. It's...
Copy !req
40. The Galactic Glider.
Copy !req
41. From game four, The Secret Darkness.
Copy !req
42. Exactly! I mean, duh! What else?
Copy !req
43. It was also in game five,
Copy !req
44. modified for time travel
by the Wise One.
Copy !req
45. Yeah! I, I knew that.
Copy !req
46. I can't believe
I'm actually standing here.
Copy !req
47. It's like a dream.
Copy !req
48. I assure you,
Copy !req
49. it's quite real.
Copy !req
50. Mr. Harper.
Copy !req
51. Hey, that's the robe of the Wise One!
Copy !req
52. Dempsey, shut up!
Copy !req
53. But he's quite right.
Copy !req
54. This is the mantle
worn by all the initiated.
Copy !req
55. What you call, "the Wise Ones."
Copy !req
56. Too few against the minions
of the Dark Regent. Come now.
Copy !req
57. Into the Sanctum of Sentries.
Copy !req
58. All the Last Cosmos games
are connected to this computer.
Copy !req
59. From here, I keep track of many things.
Copy !req
60. Including the players' scores.
Copy !req
61. Schway!
Copy !req
62. You three represent
the cream of the crop.
Copy !req
63. The highest scorers in all Gotham.
Copy !req
64. Ultra schway!
Copy !req
65. You are here because each one of you
Copy !req
66. has shown extraordinary aptitude.
Copy !req
67. To us, Last Cosmos is more than a game.
Copy !req
68. Yeah, it's our whole life.
Copy !req
69. Your devotion reflects
a profound commitment
Copy !req
70. to the ideals of the Sentries.
Copy !req
71. But are you ready to take the next step?
Copy !req
72. Do you have what it takes
Copy !req
73. to become real
Sentries of the Last Cosmos?
Copy !req
74. So get this.
Copy !req
75. My school counselor says my problem is
Copy !req
76. - I lack direction.
Copy !req
77. Go to the Hall of Records.
Copy !req
78. I'm showing a break-in
at their data bank.
Copy !req
79. Somehow I don't think
that's what she meant by direction.
Copy !req
80. A big, smoking hole.
Copy !req
81. Could be a clue.
Copy !req
82. Here it is.
Copy !req
83. The data bank that's been infected
by the Dark Regent.
Copy !req
84. I thought the Sentry-Con was next month.
Copy !req
85. Stay back.
We're on a sacred mission.
Copy !req
86. What, you're gonna
save the planet from the Dark Regent?
Copy !req
87. Sentries, to the challenge.
Copy !req
88. Sentries, away.
Copy !req
89. Terry!
Copy !req
90. Can you hear me? Terry!
Copy !req
91. I'm here.
Copy !req
92. What happened?
Copy !req
93. I just got my butt fried
by the Sentries Of The Last Cosmos.
Copy !req
94. What?
Copy !req
95. You're kidding, right?
Real Sentries?
Copy !req
96. Yeah. And I've got the real bruises
to prove it.
Copy !req
97. Weird.
Copy !req
98. They said they were sent
on a sacred mission by the Wise One.
Copy !req
99. Wise One?
Copy !req
100. That's what Corey calls Simon Harper.
Copy !req
101. The guy who created the game?
Copy !req
102. He invited Corey to come and meet him.
Copy !req
103. Do you think there's a connection?
Copy !req
104. Is Jar Jar lame?
Copy !req
105. Corey, wait up!
Copy !req
106. How was Sentrycroft?
Copy !req
107. Okay, I guess.
Copy !req
108. Okay?
Copy !req
109. Come on, give!
Copy !req
110. That's a hard place to crash.
Copy !req
111. What's it like?
Copy !req
112. Yeah, come on, Sentry! Report.
Copy !req
113. It's just a joke to you,
isn't it, McGinnis?
Copy !req
114. Well, that's all it was.
Copy !req
115. A joke. A big nothing, okay?
Copy !req
116. What now, O Wise One?
Copy !req
117. I'm in.
Copy !req
118. No way a fanboy like Corey
wouldn't spew about this.
Copy !req
119. He's coverin' somethin'.
Copy !req
120. Just be careful.
Copy !req
121. Quite resourceful.
Copy !req
122. I'll have to program that strategy
into my next game.
Copy !req
123. And what kind of game is that,
Mr. Harper?
Copy !req
124. What do you mean?
Copy !req
125. I met some of your Sentries last night.
Copy !req
126. They didn't play by the rules.
Copy !req
127. You must understand.
Copy !req
128. There are thousands of hard-core fans.
Copy !req
129. Many dress up as my characters.
Copy !req
130. Conventions. That sort of thing.
Copy !req
131. I have absolutely no control over them.
Copy !req
132. In fact, that very fan fanaticism is why
Copy !req
133. I've had to install
such elaborate security measures.
Copy !req
134. So you don't know anything
Copy !req
135. about those Sentries
at the Hall Of Records?
Copy !req
136. I'm sorry.
I wish I could be more help, but...
Copy !req
137. - Sentries, to me.
Copy !req
138. What happened, Wise One?
Copy !req
139. The Dark Regent's servants
have been here.
Copy !req
140. We'll find them.
Copy !req
141. No. I have a more important mission
for you.
Copy !req
142. The Dark Regent himself
is here on Earth.
Copy !req
143. He's taken on a human form.
Copy !req
144. Disguised as a man named Eldon Michaels.
Copy !req
145. Eldon Michaels?
Copy !req
146. What are you saying?
Copy !req
147. Sentries Of The Last Cosmos
is no mere game.
Copy !req
148. It simulates a real war,
Copy !req
149. one being fought
in the deepest reaches of space.
Copy !req
150. For centuries, we Wise Ones have used it
Copy !req
151. to recruit trainees like yourselves.
Copy !req
152. Now, you must confront the Dark Regent
to save our universe.
Copy !req
153. That's all you can find
for Eldon Michaels?
Copy !req
154. An address?
Copy !req
155. From a few years ago.
Copy !req
156. I've checked every data system,
Copy !req
157. there's nothing on him.
Not even a birth date.
Copy !req
158. Maybe he really is from outer space.
Copy !req
159. Danger! Danger!
Copy !req
160. Danger! Danger!
Copy !req
161. Danger!
Copy !req
162. Cute.
Copy !req
163. Aah!
Copy !req
164. Ow, that hurt!
Copy !req
165. "Ow, that hurt"?
Copy !req
166. Eldon Michaels, I presume.
Copy !req
167. I thought you were somebody else.
Copy !req
168. Obviously.
Copy !req
169. What's this, a word processor?
Copy !req
170. It's a typewriter.
Copy !req
171. It belonged to Philip K. Dick,
Copy !req
172. the greatest writer who ever lived.
Copy !req
173. You're a writer, too?
Copy !req
174. Well, duh!
Copy !req
175. Why is Simon Harper after you?
Copy !req
176. Why?
Copy !req
177. Because he's a two-faced Janus,
Copy !req
178. a pirate and a charlatan.
Copy !req
179. - And I can prove it.
Copy !req
180. Aah!
Copy !req
181. My research!
Copy !req
182. Aah!
Copy !req
183. Aah!
Copy !req
184. Don't. Stop! Where are you takin' me?
Copy !req
185. Put me down! Help!
Copy !req
186. Harper,
Copy !req
187. miserable recreant.
Copy !req
188. If you wanted to face me,
do it yourself.
Copy !req
189. Don't involve these deluded lame-brains.
Copy !req
190. Why have you brought him here?
Copy !req
191. What should we have done?
Copy !req
192. Kill him.
Copy !req
193. But the Sentries' Code Of Honor.
Copy !req
194. Like he knows anything about honor.
Copy !req
195. Silence!
Copy !req
196. Aah!
Copy !req
197. He is the Dark Regent.
Copy !req
198. He must be destroyed.
Copy !req
199. Dark Regent?
Copy !req
200. He's plotted against me.
Copy !req
201. It was a lawsuit, you mad...
Copy !req
202. Simon, if 20% is too much,
Copy !req
203. I'll settle for 15.
Copy !req
204. Lawsuit?
Copy !req
205. What's he talkin' about?
Copy !req
206. This.
Copy !req
207. Get him!
Copy !req
208. Aah!
Copy !req
209. What is it?
Copy !req
210. Written by...
Copy !req
211. Eldon Michaels?
Copy !req
212. Right.
Copy !req
213. Michaels created the game.
Harper just produced it.
Copy !req
214. He was supposed to share the profits,
but he went back on the deal.
Copy !req
215. It's a lie!
Copy !req
216. That's why he had you destroy
the data bank
Copy !req
217. where the original contracts
were stored.
Copy !req
218. Don't listen!
Copy !req
219. He's trying to cloud your minds.
Copy !req
220. It's all in here.
Copy !req
221. There's where Zimzam learned to fly.
Copy !req
222. From the Eagles of Karisium.
Copy !req
223. And here's where Aaron gets
the golden feather from Princess Alla.
Copy !req
224. Aah!
Copy !req
225. I'll destroy you,
you Pyratheran Moon Slug.
Copy !req
226. You're starting to believe
your own fiction.
Copy !req
227. Sentries, to the challenge.
Copy !req
228. Game over.
Copy !req
229. So they finally saw through
Harper's smoke and mirrors?
Copy !req
230. Why did he do it?
Copy !req
231. Didn't he already have enough money?
Copy !req
232. It's not easy to give up being God.
Copy !req
233. I guess you'd know.
Copy !req
234. Poor kids.
Copy !req
235. Looking to a video game
for something to believe in.
Copy !req
236. Yeah. What'll they do now?
Copy !req
237. What do you want?
Copy !req
238. You left this at Sentrycroft,
Mr. Michaels.
Copy !req
239. It's too important
to trust anyone but you.
Copy !req
240. Thanks.
Copy !req
241. Wait!
Copy !req
242. What did the Wise Ones mean
Copy !req
243. when they said, "Seek the Center"?
Copy !req
244. And why did they send Aaron to Pyrapera?
Copy !req
245. And the golden feather,
what's with that?
Copy !req
246. Hey, it's just a game.
Copy !req
247. - But you know.
- You're the man.
Copy !req
248. Yeah, the real Wise One.
Copy !req
249. Well, if you really wanna know,
Copy !req
250. it all started a long, long time ago,
Copy !req
251. in a cosmos far from Earth.
Copy !req
