1. Someone murdered
Copy !req
2. the Guardians of the Globe
Copy !req
3. last night.
Copy !req
4. I'm Allen, by the way.
Copy !req
5. The Coalition of Planets
will want to hear about you.
Copy !req
6. I couldn't move.
Copy !req
7. My heart was racing.
Copy !req
8. That's fear.
Copy !req
9. I don't have
anyone to talk to,
Copy !req
10. so I keep it all inside.
Copy !req
11. What's this?
Copy !req
12. Something that helped me.
Copy !req
13. Yeah!
Copy !req
14. Ooh, crap.
Copy !req
15. You brought me to Paris?
Copy !req
16. Is that a casino?
Copy !req
17. Make sure the voice
in your ear isn't
Copy !req
18. the only one you listen to.
Copy !req
19. You're way too good for me!
Copy !req
20. You goddamn geriatric hypocrite.
Copy !req
21. - Come on!
- You and I were never a thing.
Copy !req
22. The Immortal and I are.
Copy !req
23. I call me the Shapesmith.
Copy !req
24. You're not
your father, Mark.
Copy !req
25. That's why I'm going back.
Copy !req
26. I guess this is it.
Copy !req
27. Time to push my baby bird
out of the nest.
Copy !req
28. It's a good thing
I can already fly.
Copy !req
29. You're
gonna be okay, right?
Copy !req
30. You know I can be home in like
five minutes if you need me.
Copy !req
31. I'll be fine.
Copy !req
32. Anger is a part of it.
Part of the grieving.
Copy !req
33. Yeah, I... I know.
Copy !req
34. I promised myself
I wouldn't cry.
Copy !req
35. Oh, this past year's
just been so...
Copy !req
36. Tough?
Copy !req
37. Yeah.
Copy !req
38. But college is a fresh start.
Copy !req
39. And I want you to enjoy
every second of it.
Copy !req
40. This is your chance
to figure out who you are.
Copy !req
41. And I don't mean Invincible.
Copy !req
42. I mean Mark Grayson.
Copy !req
43. My only son.
Copy !req
44. My... my baby boy.
Copy !req
45. - My...
- Okay, okay.
Copy !req
46. - I love you, Mom.
- Mmm.
Copy !req
47. And don't do drugs.
Copy !req
48. Would they even work on me?
Copy !req
49. You do not need to find out.
Copy !req
50. I'll come home
for dinner on Sunday.
Copy !req
51. Um...
one second, please.
Copy !req
52. Shh, okay.
Just let me take this call.
Copy !req
53. Okay.
Copy !req
54. Hi. Sorry.
Copy !req
55. Hi. Um...
Copy !req
56. I got your card
from my friend Olga.
Copy !req
57. - My name is Debbie G...
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
58. Yeah-yeah, no. Uh, sorry,
no last names, Debbie.
Copy !req
59. But Olga told me about you.
Copy !req
60. I've been expecting your call.
Copy !req
61. Séance Dog? Really?
Copy !req
62. - What are we, 12?
- Hmm.
Copy !req
63. Does that look crooked to you?
Copy !req
64. Help me out here, Mark.
Copy !req
65. You already have a girlfriend
Copy !req
66. and you're a superhero.
Copy !req
67. I, on the other hand, am single
and have no superpowers
Copy !req
68. and, thus, actually
have to attempt game.
Copy !req
69. This isn't helping.
Copy !req
70. Maybe it'll just make you
look better by comparison.
Copy !req
71. Huh. Excellent point.
Copy !req
72. Okay. See this?
Copy !req
73. It's a sock?
Copy !req
74. And when it's on the door
handle like so,
Copy !req
75. it means go eat a taco
or fly to Spain
Copy !req
76. or do whatever you have to do,
Copy !req
77. but don't come in
until the sock is gone.
Copy !req
78. And I will do the same
for you. Got it?
Copy !req
79. Hi, um, there's
some stuff out here.
Copy !req
80. Does it belong to you guys?
Copy !req
81. - Oh! Toys.
- Uh, they're collectibles.
Copy !req
82. Sorry, buddy.
Copy !req
83. I don't know
what I was thinking.
Copy !req
84. Who has sex
on the first day of college?
Copy !req
85. I don't know, Mark.
Copy !req
86. Lots of people, probably.
Copy !req
87. - Us, for example?
- Us?
Copy !req
88. My roommate doesn't arrive
until tomorrow, so...
Copy !req
89. we have the
whole place to ourselves.
Copy !req
90. Uh, o-okay, I mean, yeah.
Like... like, right now?
Copy !req
91. I mean, we could.
Copy !req
92. O-Okay. Um... yeah.
Copy !req
93. I bought these.
Copy !req
94. Okay. Good.
Copy !req
95. Good to have those. Mmm.
Copy !req
96. Wait.
Copy !req
97. You don't have, like,
Copy !req
98. super sperm
or something, do you?
Copy !req
99. Uh, it's not...
I mean, it seems normal.
Copy !req
100. Not that I would...
I-I think it's fine.
Copy !req
101. And you wouldn't accidentally
crush me or something?
Copy !req
102. Like, if you get excited?
I've seen what you can do.
Copy !req
103. No. I would never...
Copy !req
104. That's not, like,
a thing I would do.
Copy !req
105. Maybe we'll try with me on top,
just to be safe.
Copy !req
106. Sure.
Copy !req
107. Turn off the lights first?
Copy !req
108. - How'd you do that?
- Superpowers, baby.
Copy !req
109. - Don't call me "baby."
- Got it.
Copy !req
110. And so,
dear audience,
Copy !req
111. perhaps it's time to give
Amber and Mark some privacy
Copy !req
112. and turn our attention
to the stars
Copy !req
113. and a story that began
generations ago in...
Copy !req
114. We begin on the planet Unopa.
Copy !req
115. A peaceful and thriving world,
the Unopans had achieved
Copy !req
116. harmony with nature
and technology...
Copy !req
117. until everything changed
in the blink of an eye.
Copy !req
118. Like a plague of
unequaled potency,
Copy !req
119. a dark force invaded Unopa.
Copy !req
120. It swept across the planet,
Copy !req
121. conquering it
in a matter of days.
Copy !req
122. The Unopans that died never knew
who their conquerors were.
Copy !req
123. The ones that lived
quickly learned the name...
Copy !req
124. Viltrumite.
Copy !req
125. However,
the Unopan spirit was unbroken.
Copy !req
126. Biding their time for decades,
Copy !req
127. they waited for
a moment of weakness
Copy !req
128. and rebelled.
Copy !req
129. Unfortunately, they still
underestimated their oppressors.
Copy !req
130. But all was not lost.
Copy !req
131. Ever resourceful, some
Unopans were able to escape,
Copy !req
132. abandoning their home
for the stars
Copy !req
133. and the promise of a new life.
Copy !req
134. Within a generation,
they started breeding camps
Copy !req
135. on various Unopan outposts
to rebuild their population,
Copy !req
136. the rumors of which caught
Copy !req
137. some very powerful
galactic attention.
Copy !req
138. Impressed with
the Unopan survival
Copy !req
139. and escape from
a Viltrumite invasion,
Copy !req
140. Thaedus, the leader of
the Coalition of Planets,
Copy !req
141. invited them
to the planet Talescria
Copy !req
142. to join their ranks.
Copy !req
143. You have
our deepest sympathies,
Copy !req
144. Marvin of Unopa.
Copy !req
145. The Viltrumite campaign has
become the scourge of the galaxy
Copy !req
146. and we stand united against it.
Copy !req
147. We are currently devising
a weapon to stop them.
Copy !req
148. If you wish to help,
Copy !req
149. we would be happy
to join your coalition.
Copy !req
150. Marvin explained
to Thaedus
Copy !req
151. that the breeding camps
were also
Copy !req
152. a genetic enhancement program
designed to breed a soldier
Copy !req
153. that could defeat
a Viltrumite in combat.
Copy !req
154. The results were...
Copy !req
155. not promising.
Copy !req
156. Until... Allen.
Copy !req
157. He was
the first and only success.
Copy !req
158. From the day he was born,
Allen was trained to be
Copy !req
159. the greatest fighter
the universe had ever known.
Copy !req
160. Even before adulthood,
an opponent could not be found
Copy !req
161. who didn't fall to his might.
Copy !req
162. Soon, it was time for Allen to
embark on his first mission.
Copy !req
163. But while stronger than
most of the universe,
Copy !req
164. Allen still couldn't match
Copy !req
165. even a single Viltrumite
in combat.
Copy !req
166. The program was considered
a failure
Copy !req
167. and ended.
Copy !req
168. Instead, Allen was made
a planetary evaluation officer
Copy !req
169. and sent to discover
any being able to defeat him
Copy !req
170. in hope of finding
Copy !req
171. an ally strong enough
to withstand a Viltrumite.
Copy !req
172. And while it may be true
that Allen was supposed to be
Copy !req
173. keeping tabs on the planet
Urath and accidentally
Copy !req
174. went to Earth instead,
Copy !req
175. his mistake led him
to Mark Grayson,
Copy !req
176. a half-human, half-Viltrumite
Copy !req
177. sympathetic to
the coalition cause.
Copy !req
178. Because sometimes,
to change the entire universe,
Copy !req
179. you have to be...
Copy !req
180. Home sweet home.
Copy !req
181. This time
Allen bears a rare
Copy !req
182. and valuable gift
for the coalition.
Copy !req
183. Hope.
Copy !req
184. Data log.
Copy !req
185. Hello to you, too.
Here you go.
Copy !req
186. Hmm.
Copy !req
187. You found the right planet
this time.
Copy !req
188. Yes, I found the right planet.
Copy !req
189. Because it was the wrong planet
you already found before.
Copy !req
190. - Sure, but that's not really...
- Most of our agents don't make
Copy !req
191. so many astronavigational mistakes.
Copy !req
192. Listen, sparky.
Copy !req
193. Is it still a mistake if
it ends up saving the universe?
Copy !req
194. - Yes.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
195. You're late.
Copy !req
196. General Telia.
Copy !req
197. My apologies.
I got here as soon as I could.
Copy !req
198. The Viltrumites hit Aikreon
while you were gone.
Copy !req
199. What? But they just
joined the council...
Copy !req
200. It's terrified the sector.
Copy !req
201. Other planets we were talking to
cut all communications.
Copy !req
202. We need more allies.
Copy !req
203. And they're making it
very difficult.
Copy !req
204. Then good thing I found us one.
Copy !req
205. What news, Allen of Unopa?
Copy !req
206. Did you warn the Earth champion
Copy !req
207. that a Viltrumite lives
among his people?
Copy !req
208. Yeah, I did.
Copy !req
209. But it turns out
he's a Viltrumite, too.
Copy !req
210. His name is Mark
and he's only half-Viltrumite.
Copy !req
211. Unbelievable.
Copy !req
212. I know, I know.
It sounds bad.
Copy !req
213. But he is not like them.
Copy !req
214. He didn't even know
what a Viltrumite was
Copy !req
215. until recently.
Copy !req
216. How is that possible?
Copy !req
217. No one told him, I guess.
Copy !req
218. When he got his powers,
Copy !req
219. all he wanted to do was
help other humans.
Copy !req
220. Then his father decided it was
time to conquer the planet,
Copy !req
221. so they, they got
in a fight about it.
Copy !req
222. Viltrumite against Viltrumite?
Copy !req
223. That has not happened
since the great purge.
Copy !req
224. And get this.
After they fought, his dad left.
Copy !req
225. Like, left the planet.
Disappeared completely.
Copy !req
226. We could never trust
one of them.
Copy !req
227. Mark isn't like
other Viltrumites.
Copy !req
228. He just wants to
protect his world.
Copy !req
229. And conquer others in its name.
Copy !req
230. No, stop.
That is not his deal.
Copy !req
231. He's a good guy,
not a conqueror.
Copy !req
232. So far.
Copy !req
233. Have you guys been
listening at all?
Copy !req
234. For years we've been
searching for a hole
Copy !req
235. in the Viltrumites' armor.
Copy !req
236. This could be it.
Copy !req
237. Thaedus, you can't trust
this report.
Copy !req
238. Allen is right.
Copy !req
239. Viltrumites never abandon
their missions.
Copy !req
240. Yet one has.
Copy !req
241. Viltrumites
do not battle each other,
Copy !req
242. but a son defies his father.
Copy !req
243. These are weaknesses.
Copy !req
244. The first we've found
Copy !req
245. and ones we must
learn to exploit.
Copy !req
246. Perhaps Viltrum's grip
on the galaxy is not
Copy !req
247. as steady as we imagine.
Copy !req
248. You have done well, Allen,
Copy !req
249. and given us much to discuss.
Copy !req
250. We will call on you again soon.
Copy !req
251. Thank you, great Thaedus.
Copy !req
252. I'm honored to serve.
Copy !req
253. They have no idea
what this means.
Copy !req
254. If there are other
Viltrumite kids out there,
Copy !req
255. maybe we can turn them
against their parents, too.
Copy !req
256. Also, why are they
breeding with other races?
Copy !req
257. I thought Viltrumites believed
in racial purity.
Copy !req
258. See? That's a good question.
Copy !req
259. Why didn't they ask
stuff like that
Copy !req
260. instead of shouting at me?
Copy !req
261. Allen, before you depart,
Copy !req
262. a word?
Copy !req
263. Of course, wise Thaedus.
Copy !req
264. I find it convenient
and somewhat alarming
Copy !req
265. that Aikreon was hit so soon
after joining the coalition.
Copy !req
266. It's as if the Viltrumites
had knowledge
Copy !req
267. from inside the council.
Copy !req
268. You want me to discover
if someone's betrayed us.
Copy !req
269. Ah, Allen, you continue
to prove yourself
Copy !req
270. the coalition's most
valuable asset.
Copy !req
271. Thank you, sir.
Copy !req
272. If there's a mole,
I'll find them.
Copy !req
273. Hey, Vorg.
Hey, little buddy.
Copy !req
274. Did you miss me?
Copy !req
275. Yes, you did.
Yes, you did.
Copy !req
276. You did miss your daddy,
didn't you?
Copy !req
277. Shh.
Copy !req
278. Huh?
Copy !req
279. Did you miss me?
Copy !req
280. Oh, I missed you.
Copy !req
281. - Yeah? How much?
- The most.
Copy !req
282. Or like ten times that amount.
Maybe more even.
Copy !req
283. Oh, let's see if that's true.
Copy !req
284. Oh, goodness. Tentacles.
Copy !req
285. I, uh...
Copy !req
286. Perhaps now would be
a good time to return to Earth
Copy !req
287. and rejoin Amber Bennett
and Mark Grayson
Copy !req
288. as they begin their studies
Copy !req
289. at the prestigious
Upstate University.
Copy !req
290. Oh, I see, uh...
Copy !req
291. No. Let's not do that, then.
Copy !req
292. Well, um...
Copy !req
293. Aha, aha.
Copy !req
294. Here we find
the Unopan feline.
Copy !req
295. Perhaps unsurprisingly,
Copy !req
296. he has one large eye
in the center of his head.
Copy !req
297. But that doesn't
stop him from having
Copy !req
298. all manner of
household adventures.
Copy !req
299. Oh, man,
I have been dying for this.
Copy !req
300. I don't know
how you eat kanzlok.
Copy !req
301. It's disgusting.
Copy !req
302. He doesn't think so.
Copy !req
303. Mmm... Mm?
Copy !req
304. No matter how far I travel,
Copy !req
305. Talescria's still
the most beautiful planet
Copy !req
306. I've ever seen.
Copy !req
307. There's hundreds of planets
that look exactly like it.
Copy !req
308. Sure. But only one has you.
Copy !req
309. Wow.
Copy !req
310. Hey, what did Thaedus
want to talk about
Copy !req
311. after the council meeting?
Copy !req
312. Um...
Copy !req
313. Look, I'm not really
supposed to, uh...
Copy !req
314. Okay, okay, fine.
Copy !req
315. Thaedus thinks there's a mole.
Copy !req
316. And I am supposed to...
Copy !req
317. Allen!
Copy !req
318. Oh, fuck.
Copy !req
319. Unopan,
answer our questions
Copy !req
320. and we will consider
sparing your life.
Copy !req
321. That is not your style.
Copy !req
322. Isn't it kill first,
ask questions... never?
Copy !req
323. You will tell us everything
Copy !req
324. about your encounter with
the Viltrumite of Earth.
Copy !req
325. I mean, not technically
a question if...
Copy !req
326. Are you certain
he sired an heir?
Copy !req
327. Are you certain
he abandoned his post?
Copy !req
328. Who told you that?
I mean it.
Copy !req
329. I'd really like to know because...
Copy !req
330. Where's the father now?
Copy !req
331. The father?
Which one was he again?
Copy !req
332. You biclops all kind of
look the same to me.
Copy !req
333. Great Thaedus.
Copy !req
334. How is he?
Copy !req
335. Uh... alive. For now.
Copy !req
336. It may not seem like it,
Copy !req
337. but that is cause
for celebration.
Copy !req
338. They once again underestimate
the Unopan will to survive.
Copy !req
339. I know you and Allen are
Copy !req
340. special to one another.
Copy !req
341. Thank you, sir.
Copy !req
342. To come here,
attack Allen at home,
Copy !req
343. the Viltrumites must know
we've discovered something.
Copy !req
344. Something that scares them.
Copy !req
345. And we will exploit it.
Copy !req
346. You should get some rest.
Copy !req
347. Go.
Copy !req
348. I will watch over him.
Copy !req
349. Forgive me, Allen.
Copy !req
350. Come on.
Copy !req
351. - Two more.
- Come on.
Copy !req
352. Two more.
Copy !req
353. Are we gonna talk about this,
Copy !req
354. or is it just gonna be
awkward forever?
Copy !req
355. Uh... the second one?
Copy !req
356. God, why do you have to be
so immature?
Copy !req
357. I'm immature? Uh,
Copy !req
358. you cheated on me
with the Immortal.
Copy !req
359. That's what you think happened?
Seriously?
Copy !req
360. And even if that was true,
Copy !req
361. you were cheating on Eve
with me first.
Copy !req
362. Okay, but that worked out
in your favor.
Copy !req
363. You are unbelievable.
Copy !req
364. And you're gross.
Copy !req
365. The Immortal's like
2,000 years old, you know.
Copy !req
366. Not that I have to justify
anything to you ever,
Copy !req
367. but if you add up
the amount of time
Copy !req
368. my duplicates and I have lived,
we are probably the same age.
Copy !req
369. Oh, okay, okay.
Copy !req
370. So I'm too young for you now?
I-I-Is that it?
Copy !req
371. No, Rex.
You're just an asshole.
Copy !req
372. Well, how is that news?
Copy !req
373. Look, come on, Kate, talk to me.
What is this about?
Copy !req
374. You really want to know, Rex?
Copy !req
375. Yeah, I kinda do.
Copy !req
376. Fine.
Copy !req
377. The Immortal's
the only person I've ever met
Copy !req
378. who's died
as many times as I have.
Copy !req
379. Maybe you don't understand that,
Copy !req
380. but it means something.
Copy !req
381. He gets it.
Copy !req
382. And... Rex doesn't.
Copy !req
383. I get that you
shouldn't be eavesdropping.
Copy !req
384. So please fuck
the fuck off already.
Copy !req
385. It's not your gym, dickbag.
Copy !req
386. What? Are you gonna knock
my teeth out again?
Copy !req
387. - Don't be a jerk, Rex.
- Too late.
Copy !req
388. Uh, at least I'm not a cheater.
Copy !req
389. - But you literally are!
- But that was before!
Copy !req
390. I'm not now.
Copy !req
391. Oh, hello, chums.
Copy !req
392. I'd like to run while remaining
in a stationary location.
Copy !req
393. Is that cool beans?
Copy !req
394. Where are you from?
Copy !req
395. For real.
Where are you from?
Copy !req
396. Go ahead, Shapesmith.
Copy !req
397. I'll just be over there.
Copy !req
398. In a stationary location.
Copy !req
399. Well, this has been
about as much fun
Copy !req
400. as eating a light bulb.
Copy !req
401. Hey, Mozart, what's all this?
Copy !req
402. Uh... it's Strauss, actually.
Copy !req
403. Is that a brain?
Is that your brain?
Copy !req
404. Uh... yes.
Copy !req
405. You're gonna make me ask,
aren't you?
Copy !req
406. I was less than satisfied
Copy !req
407. with my performance
against the Giant.
Copy !req
408. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
409. You totally shit the bed
on that one.
Copy !req
410. It sucks actually
feeling fear, doesn't it?
Copy !req
411. It was...
Copy !req
412. unacceptable.
Copy !req
413. Sorry.
Copy !req
414. Sensitivity's never been
my strong suit.
Copy !req
415. No, you're right.
Copy !req
416. I-I don't need you
to sugarcoat it.
Copy !req
417. Which is why I've decided
to resolve the problem.
Copy !req
418. I set up
this visual feedback system
Copy !req
419. so I could practice controlling
my fear response
Copy !req
420. via meditation
and active thought.
Copy !req
421. Are you sure that's a good idea?
Copy !req
422. People feel fear for a reason.
Copy !req
423. And it's usually a good reason.
Copy !req
424. Fear is an extraneous emotion
Copy !req
425. that serves no real purpose
for someone like me.
Copy !req
426. I strongly disagree, but...
Copy !req
427. I guess
you'll find out the hard way.
Copy !req
428. Have fun next time you fall
off a cliff or something.
Copy !req
429. Amanda?
Copy !req
430. Fear hasn't just made me useless
in battle.
Copy !req
431. It-It's prevented me
from doing something else
Copy !req
432. I've wanted to do
Copy !req
433. for quite some time.
Copy !req
434. Will you go to a movie with me?
Copy !req
435. A... movie?
Copy !req
436. Oh.
Copy !req
437. Sure.
Copy !req
438. Sure, Rudy.
Copy !req
439. I'll-I'll go to a movie
with you.
Copy !req
440. It feels like vertigo.
Copy !req
441. They talk about
the physical symptoms of grief—
Copy !req
442. depression, lethargy, all that.
Copy !req
443. Uh, but...
Copy !req
444. when the thought of her
takes me by surprise
Copy !req
445. in the middle of the day,
Copy !req
446. it's like I'm falling.
Copy !req
447. I try to grab on to something
but there's nothing to grab.
Copy !req
448. It's terrifying
Copy !req
449. and exhausting, and I just...
Copy !req
450. I still miss her so much.
Copy !req
451. That's all I got.
Copy !req
452. Thanks, Theo.
Copy !req
453. Okay, let's take a few, everybody.
Copy !req
454. Carol?
Copy !req
455. Hi! You must be Debbie.
Copy !req
456. I'm so sorry
about the other day.
Copy !req
457. My three-month-old has
the worst colic right now.
Copy !req
458. Ugh, I remember.
Copy !req
459. My son,
he was such a fussy baby.
Copy !req
460. How old is he now?
Copy !req
461. Eighteen.
Copy !req
462. Practically a man.
Copy !req
463. He is.
Copy !req
464. So, um, ground rules.
Copy !req
465. We're not that different
from other support groups
Copy !req
466. except we're even more strict
when it comes to identity.
Copy !req
467. First names only.
Copy !req
468. You aren't required to share
till you're ready,
Copy !req
469. but that's why we're
all sacrificing a Tuesday night,
Copy !req
470. so might as well
make the most of it.
Copy !req
471. Bathroom's down the hall.
Copy !req
472. Coffee tastes like battery acid.
Copy !req
473. Any questions?
Copy !req
474. I think you covered it.
Copy !req
475. Great. Have a seat.
Copy !req
476. All right, everybody, who's up?
Copy !req
477. Hi. I'm Lucinda.
Copy !req
478. Hi, Lucinda.
Copy !req
479. I didn't say much
at my first meeting either.
Copy !req
480. Took me almost a month
to talk to anybody.
Copy !req
481. Now they can't shut me up.
Copy !req
482. I see.
Copy !req
483. Sorry.
Copy !req
484. I can leave you alone.
Copy !req
485. N-No, it's fine. I j...
Copy !req
486. Uh, I dropped my son off
at college today.
Copy !req
487. Empty house?
Copy !req
488. Yeah.
Copy !req
489. It's okay. I totally get it.
Copy !req
490. We all do.
Copy !req
491. Hey, don't take this
the wrong way,
Copy !req
492. but there's a bar
down the street
Copy !req
493. some of us like to go to
after group.
Copy !req
494. Oh.
Copy !req
495. Uh, I just figured,
Copy !req
496. since it seems like neither
of us wants to go home.
Copy !req
497. But no pressure, of course.
Copy !req
498. Sure.
Copy !req
499. I could use a drink.
Copy !req
500. It's, uh, it's kind of a dive.
Copy !req
501. The best ones are.
Copy !req
502. Never?
Copy !req
503. Of course I've watched films,
Copy !req
504. but, no,
I've never attended one.
Copy !req
505. I had more important things
to do.
Copy !req
506. And I, uh...
Copy !req
507. wouldn't have fit before.
Copy !req
508. Someday you'll have to tell me
all about your childhood.
Copy !req
509. Oh, we're already seeing
a horror movie tonight.
Copy !req
510. Hey. You wanted to test
your fear response again.
Copy !req
511. Uh, two tickets
for Midnight Slaughter.
Copy !req
512. That's rated "R."
Copy !req
513. I see.
Copy !req
514. And?
Copy !req
515. You need your parents to buy you
R-rated tickets.
Copy !req
516. That's ridiculous.
Copy !req
517. How does a parent's presence
Copy !req
518. change a film's suitability
for the underage?
Copy !req
519. It changes it
in that I don't get fired
Copy !req
520. - for selling you a ticket.
- Hey.
Copy !req
521. It's fine. They're my kids.
They can see the movie.
Copy !req
522. What?
Copy !req
523. You want to do a DNA test now?
Copy !req
524. - How...
- This might be your
first movie, but it's not mine.
Copy !req
525. You'd be surprised what people
will do for ten bucks.
Copy !req
526. Wait, if this is
your first movie,
Copy !req
527. what other normal stuff
haven't you done?
Copy !req
528. This is supposed
to be appetizing?
Copy !req
529. Says the guy who used
to eat food through his butt.
Copy !req
530. That's not how...
Copy !req
531. It entered through my...
Copy !req
532. Mmm.
Copy !req
533. Is it appetizing now?
Copy !req
534. Mmm.
Copy !req
535. I know these aren't good for me, but...
Copy !req
536. Oh, shut up.
Copy !req
537. A good burger and fries
Copy !req
538. is one of the greatest pleasures
in life.
Copy !req
539. Yes. Mmm. I'm discovering that.
Copy !req
540. Oh! Oh! I'm sorry!
Copy !req
541. Let me get you some more.
Uh, waiter?
Copy !req
542. Waiter, uh, more fries, please.
Copy !req
543. Rudy, there's no waiters
in Burger Mart.
Copy !req
544. Did you move
after your partner
Copy !req
545. passed away?
Copy !req
546. I moved the furniture.
Copy !req
547. Couldn't afford to relocate.
Copy !req
548. You?
Copy !req
549. I stayed for my son, but... now?
Copy !req
550. I don't know.
Copy !req
551. Maybe it's time for a change.
Copy !req
552. Change is good.
Copy !req
553. Yeah.
Copy !req
554. Problem is, where would I go?
Copy !req
555. Somewhere new.
Copy !req
556. So much of it
still feels connected to him.
Copy !req
557. When we wanted Indian food,
we'd go to India.
Copy !req
558. We'd fly to Tokyo and back
on a Wednesday night.
Copy !req
559. Oh.
One Christmas Eve,
Copy !req
560. we even made a snowman
at the North Pole.
Copy !req
561. My son cried when he didn't see
Santa's workshop,
Copy !req
562. so we told him we'd gone
to the South Pole by mistake.
Copy !req
563. Sounds like you two had
a pretty amazing life together.
Copy !req
564. We did.
Copy !req
565. You can still be angry.
Copy !req
566. That's okay. God knows I am.
Copy !req
567. Thanks.
Copy !req
568. It's good to talk
with someone who understands.
Copy !req
569. I wish
I could tell you it gets easier,
Copy !req
570. - but Alana's been gone
nearly a year...
- Uh...
Copy !req
571. and I still reach across
the bed for her every morning.
Copy !req
572. Alana?
Copy !req
573. - You mean...
- Yeah.
Copy !req
574. She was the Green Ghost.
Copy !req
575. Guess I just broke
rule number one of SOS.
Copy !req
576. Not that it matters now,
Copy !req
577. since she got murdered
by that alien psychopath.
Copy !req
578. I-I didn't know
she had a partner.
Copy !req
579. We used to fight about that.
Copy !req
580. She wanted to protect me.
Copy !req
581. I need to use the restroom.
Copy !req
582. Are you okay?
Copy !req
583. No, I'll-I'll be right back.
Copy !req
584. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
585. You had sex with Amber.
Copy !req
586. Whoa, what?
Copy !req
587. - William.
- How was it?
Copy !req
588. - I want all the details.
- Gross.
Copy !req
589. No. No way. No.
Copy !req
590. We're roommates now. This is
what roommates talk about.
Copy !req
591. Okay, well, what about you?
Copy !req
592. How was Mr. Is This Your Stuff?
Copy !req
593. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
594. That hot guy from earlier.
Copy !req
595. I came back, and you had
the sock on the door.
Copy !req
596. Oh.
Copy !req
597. Ugh, I wish.
Copy !req
598. I must have forgotten to take it
off after my demonstration.
Copy !req
599. Wait, y-you thought
Copy !req
600. h-he and I...
Copy !req
601. Uh, yeah.
Copy !req
602. Hmm.
Copy !req
603. Super flattered.
Copy !req
604. But I'm kind of still screwed-up
about what happened to Rick.
Copy !req
605. I always imagined we'd be here
at Upstate together.
Copy !req
606. Cecil said he's doing better.
Copy !req
607. He should be released
in a month or so.
Copy !req
608. I know.
Copy !req
609. Sorry, I wasn't trying
to make you feel bad.
Copy !req
610. No, it's, it's okay.
Copy !req
611. Hey, I bet that's somebody ready
for round two.
Copy !req
612. Coming, Ambers.
Copy !req
613. It's not Amber.
Copy !req
614. We made plans
for tomorrow night.
Copy !req
615. I bet you did.
Copy !req
616. Mark Grayson?
Copy !req
617. It's for you.
Copy !req
618. Mark Grayson.
Copy !req
619. I need your help.
Copy !req
620. Who are you?
Copy !req
621. Why, it is I, Séance Dog.
Copy !req
622. Fight fire with fire,
fight evil with magic.
Copy !req
623. That's me.
Copy !req
624. Huh?
Copy !req
625. Mark.
Copy !req
626. I come with an important...
Copy !req
627. Séance Dog isn't real.
Copy !req
628. He's a comic book character.
Copy !req
629. In your dimension, yes.
Copy !req
630. But there exist myriad
other worlds
Copy !req
631. where dogs and magic are
as real as the air you breathe.
Copy !req
632. We have dogs.
Dogs are real.
Copy !req
633. Well, then you're halfway
to understanding.
Copy !req
634. Open your mind and let me help
you reach the other side.
Copy !req
635. Hey, well, whatever you're
doing, don't, I'm warning you.
Copy !req
636. Mark Grayson, I come because...
Copy !req
637. Wait! Please!
You don't understand.
Copy !req
638. Last chance.
Copy !req
639. Who are you,
and what do you want?
Copy !req
640. I'm sorry, my disguise
was meant to disarm you.
Copy !req
641. I thought if I appeared
as something you love...
Copy !req
642. - Disarm me for what?
- Please.
Copy !req
643. I'm not a threat.
Copy !req
644. The journey to your world
has taken me most of my life.
Copy !req
645. May I rise?
Copy !req
646. If you answer my questions.
Copy !req
647. My name is Nuolzot.
Copy !req
648. I am from the planet Thraxa.
Copy !req
649. My people sent me
to plead for your help.
Copy !req
650. Thraxa?
Copy !req
651. It's a couple galaxies away,
uh, give or take.
Copy !req
652. I mean, not very far.
You go... It doesn't matter.
Copy !req
653. How do you know who I am?
Copy !req
654. Rumors of the one
they call Invincible
Copy !req
655. have spread like wildfire.
Copy !req
656. Your speed, your strength.
Copy !req
657. You are the only one
who can save our people
Copy !req
658. from the meteor showers
destroying our world.
Copy !req
659. Okay, listen, um...
Copy !req
660. Nuolzot.
Copy !req
661. Nuol... zot.
Copy !req
662. I just got to college, man.
Copy !req
663. I haven't even had
my first day of classes yet.
Copy !req
664. Are you kidding me,
Mark?
Copy !req
665. Nuolzot came all the way here from...
Copy !req
666. to beg for your help,
and you're too busy?
Copy !req
667. How many bug people
are in danger?
Copy !req
668. All of them.
Copy !req
669. But, like, a number.
Copy !req
670. Oh. Forty-two billion.
Copy !req
671. Don't worry about your classes.
Copy !req
672. I'll cover for you somehow.
Copy !req
673. Why do you care so much?
Copy !req
674. Because last time you didn't
want to help someone,
Copy !req
675. we both regretted it.
Copy !req
676. We believe in you,
Mark Grayson.
Copy !req
677. No,
you can't just go
Copy !req
678. to some random planet
with some random alien.
Copy !req
679. Are you insane?
Copy !req
680. The Guardians can keep an eye
on things while I'm gone.
Copy !req
681. I won't be more than
a few weeks. A month tops.
Copy !req
682. Depending on asteroid traffic.
Copy !req
683. Oh, it shouldn't be
that bad.
Copy !req
684. It shouldn't be that bad.
Copy !req
685. You work for me
here on Earth.
Copy !req
686. Look, a-a lot of people
died because of me, Cecil.
Copy !req
687. This is a chance to save lives.
Copy !req
688. Billions of them.
Copy !req
689. And this is an order: do not go.
Copy !req
690. I need to listen to myself
before I listen to you.
Copy !req
691. Your father felt the same way.
Copy !req
692. Well, I'll check in
when I get back.
Copy !req
693. Goddamn it, Mark.
Copy !req
694. Fucking kid.
Copy !req
695. You're a good human,
Mark Grayson.
Copy !req
696. Hey, when I'm in this outfit,
I'm Invincible.
Copy !req
697. So far.
Copy !req
698. No, I'm saying, like, you have
to call me Invincible.
Copy !req
699. It's like a secret identity.
Copy !req
700. Oh, right, of course. Invincible.
Copy !req
701. We need to make
a quick stop first.
Copy !req
702. Hey, you. How's it going?
Copy !req
703. Hey. Come to your window.
Copy !req
704. And?
Copy !req
705. Look up.
Copy !req
706. Mark?
Copy !req
707. Uh, I have to go away
for a few weeks.
Copy !req
708. To space again.
Copy !req
709. Like, right now?
Copy !req
710. A lot of people are gonna die
if I don't.
Copy !req
711. - I'm sorry, but I...
- No, stop, stop.
Copy !req
712. Don't apologize.
Copy !req
713. Never apologize
for saving lives.
Copy !req
714. This is the deal,
and I'm good with it. Go.
Copy !req
715. Thanks.
Copy !req
716. Can you tell my mom, please?
Copy !req
717. Yeah, of course.
Copy !req
718. Be careful.
Copy !req
719. Always.
Copy !req
720. Amber, I, uh...
Copy !req
721. Yeah?
Copy !req
722. I love you.
Copy !req
723. Are you comfortable,
Mark Gray...
Copy !req
724. Uh, sorry. Invincible?
Copy !req
725. Yeah. Thanks.
Copy !req
726. Hey, how long until
we get to Thraxa?
Copy !req
727. Approximately six
of your Earth days.
Copy !req
728. Space sucks.
Copy !req
729. Debbie. Are you okay?
Copy !req
730. Di-Did I say something wrong?
Copy !req
731. I'm sorry. Tonight...
Tonight's been a little much.
Copy !req
732. I get it. I-It's a lot.
Copy !req
733. I haven't talked to anyone
about any of this,
Copy !req
734. except my son,
and that probably makes me
Copy !req
735. a bad parent on top
of everything else.
Copy !req
736. Hey,
Copy !req
737. it takes time to heal.
Copy !req
738. I can't heal because
my husband's not dead.
Copy !req
739. He's just gone.
Copy !req
740. He's gone because...
Copy !req
741. because he murdered Alana
and the other Guardians
Copy !req
742. and almost killed my son, too.
Copy !req
743. Your husband.
Your husband's Omni-Man?
Copy !req
744. I thought he was Nolan Grayson,
but that wasn't true.
Copy !req
745. The last 20 years of my life
have been a lie.
Copy !req
746. I wish he was dead.
Copy !req
747. I wish I could grieve
and move on, but I ca...
Copy !req
748. I-I can't.
Copy !req
749. I wish he was dead, too.
Copy !req
750. But not for your sake.
Copy !req
751. You shouldn't come back
to the group.
Copy !req
752. It wouldn't be a safe space
with you there.
Copy !req
753. I didn't know.
Copy !req
754. I didn't know who he was.
Copy !req
755. You should have.
Copy !req
756. Invincible?
Copy !req
757. Invincible.
Copy !req
758. - Invincible.
- Huh!
Copy !req
759. We're here.
Copy !req
760. Uh... hi?
Copy !req
761. Oh, don't mind them. Come.
Copy !req
762. The monarch wants
to meet you at once.
Copy !req
763. Wait, what exactly about
this planet needs saving?
Copy !req
764. Where are the meteors?
Copy !req
765. Meteors?
What meteors?
Copy !req
766. The ones that are
killing billions?
Copy !req
767. Oh, yeah, those meteors.
Copy !req
768. You know, must be
a touch of dementia.
Copy !req
769. We age much quicker
than you humans, you know.
Copy !req
770. Uh, don't worry,
the monarch will explain all.
Copy !req
771. Your Majesty.
Copy !req
772. May I present Invincible
of Earth.
Copy !req
773. Oh.
Copy !req
774. Hello, son.
Copy !req
775. Huh?
Copy !req
776. It's been a while.
Copy !req
777. Dad?
Copy !req
