1. The mail's here.Copy !req
2. Junk mail, junk mail,
junk mail. Postcard!Copy !req
3. Uh, this one
is from the utility company.Copy !req
4. Must be our monthly bill.Copy !req
5. $4,000!Copy !req
6. This is the amount we oweCopy !req
7. for the use of the water,
the gas and the electric!Copy !req
8. For one single month?
That's got to be a discrepancy!Copy !req
9. 4Gs? That's a lot
of money, dude!Copy !req
10. Energy costs have been
rising, but still—Copy !req
11. It has to be a mistake!Copy !req
12. We don't use
that much energy, do we?Copy !req
13. Ooh, yeah. Nothing
beats an air dryer.Copy !req
14. Ah! Now that's how
you beat the heat.Copy !req
15. Ah! Finally, I can concentrate.Copy !req
16. Water park time, baby!Copy !req
17. Elevator, go the up.Copy !req
18. Weee!Copy !req
19. Elevator, go the down.Copy !req
20. Weee!Copy !req
21. Nah!Copy !req
22. Then there must be
something wrong with our meter.Copy !req
23. Let's go check it out.Copy !req
24. Yo, what is that thing?Copy !req
25. This is the meter
the utility company usesCopy !req
26. to measure how much water,
gas and electric we're using.Copy !req
27. Maybe we have been using
too much energy lately.Copy !req
28. This thing is spinning fast!Copy !req
29. How does one even
read this contraption?Copy !req
30. Nobody knows. It's one of human
civilization's great mysteries.Copy !req
31. They purposely
make these things
impossible to read,Copy !req
32. so you can't tell whether
or not you're being ripped off.Copy !req
33. Maybe I can help.Copy !req
34. Dr. Light!Copy !req
35. Relax, I am not here to fight.Copy !req
36. I am simply here
to read the meter.Copy !req
37. What?Copy !req
38. You work
for the utility company?Copy !req
39. Actually, I own
the utility company.Copy !req
40. It's my latest
business venture.Copy !req
41. I knew the utility company
was run by a bunch of crooks!Copy !req
42. Just look at this bill!Copy !req
43. It's ridiculous!Copy !req
44. And also accurate.Copy !req
45. You Titans are pulling
an incredible amount
of energy from the grid.Copy !req
46. What's football
gots to do with this?Copy !req
47. No, not the gridiron, the grid.Copy !req
48. It's a network
of wires and pipesCopy !req
49. that supply electricity,
gas and waterCopy !req
50. from my power plant
to every building in Jump City,Copy !req
51. including your tower.Copy !req
52. You are my highest
paying customers,Copy !req
53. and I want you to know
that I appreciate you.Copy !req
54. Then, can you at least
give us a discount on our bill?Copy !req
55. Oh, no, no, no. I can't
possibly afford to do thatCopy !req
56. and maintain
a nine-figure salary.Copy !req
57. Now pay up.Copy !req
58. It looks like we got no choice.Copy !req
59. Uh...Copy !req
60. It's ridiculous!Copy !req
61. It's been a pleasure
doing business with you.Copy !req
62. See you again next month.Copy !req
63. I ain't no math-a-magician,Copy !req
64. but I don't thinks we can
afford another bill like that.Copy !req
65. Then we need to stop the hands
on the meter from spinning.Copy !req
66. Titans, go! Make a few minor
adjustments to your lifestyles!Copy !req
67. From now on,
enjoy their silence.Copy !req
68. Silence is so distracting.Copy !req
69. From now on, take the stairs.Copy !req
70. Oh, you are ruining
the good times.Copy !req
71. From now on, no more cooking.Copy !req
72. Then how am I supposed to eat?Copy !req
73. Um, not my problem.Copy !req
74. Come on, man.
I really gots to go.Copy !req
75. Uh-uh. From now on,
do your business outside.Copy !req
76. Ahhh!Copy !req
77. Okay, Titans,
let's see how we did.Copy !req
78. I bet we stopped
that meter dead, yo.Copy !req
79. Oh, man, it's just taunting us!Copy !req
80. I hate this stupid meter!Copy !req
81. I say, we annihilate it!Copy !req
82. Our powers are no matchCopy !req
83. for that meter's
hard outer shell.Copy !req
84. If we can't destroy that thing,Copy !req
85. then hows we gonna
lower our bill?Copy !req
86. - Ahhh!
- I know!Copy !req
87. Titans, go! Install
eco-friendly upgrades!Copy !req
88. It's working. We are now
producing our own electricity.Copy !req
89. Yay!Copy !req
90. What are we gonna do
about the gas line?Copy !req
91. I believe I can
take care of that.Copy !req
92. There you go.Copy !req
93. I just switched us
over to natural gas.Copy !req
94. Booyah! Instant meatloaf!Copy !req
95. Two down, one to go.Copy !req
96. We just need to take care
of the water situation.Copy !req
97. Leave the plumbing to me.Copy !req
98. You put a toilet in a elevator?Copy !req
99. Not just any toilet,
a compostable toiletCopy !req
100. that transforms waste
into energy.Copy !req
101. Right, but did you have
to put it in the elevator?Copy !req
102. The extra height
of the elevator shaftCopy !req
103. allows for extra compost,Copy !req
104. which we can use to fertilize
the vegetables in our garden.Copy !req
105. Ew! I am not eating
those vegetables.Copy !req
106. Suit yourself, Raven.Copy !req
107. Mmm!Copy !req
108. Ooh! What's going on?Copy !req
109. Yes! It's finally happening!Copy !req
110. Now, that we supply
all our own energy,Copy !req
111. we're going off the grid!Copy !req
112. I feel so free!
It's truly energy independence!Copy !req
113. We should have
gone off the grid years ago.Copy !req
114. Yes, It is so much better to be
above the smog than below it.Copy !req
115. Goodbye, utility bills.Copy !req
116. And goodbye, Dr. Light.Copy !req
117. Not so fast, Titans.Copy !req
118. I am not letting you
off the grid that easy.Copy !req
119. Dr. Light is trying
to reattach us to the grid.Copy !req
120. We have to stop him.Copy !req
121. Titans, go!Copy !req
122. You're not going
anywhere, Titans.Copy !req
123. I am the utility company.
I have got you for life!Copy !req
124. He is right. He's got us.
There's no way off the grid!Copy !req
125. Dr. Light
and his utility companyCopy !req
126. have the too much power.Copy !req
127. Maybe. But you're forgetting
one thing, Titans.Copy !req
128. Our power is renewable!Copy !req
129. We're shutting you down,
Dr. Light.Copy !req
130. You can't defeat me.Copy !req
131. My grid was designed
to handle anything.Copy !req
132. Can it handle the power
of the solar energy?Copy !req
133. No problem.Copy !req
134. What about wind energy?Copy !req
135. Hey, cease that at once!Copy !req
136. Natural gas coming at you.Copy !req
137. Stop! My grid
can't handle the load!Copy !req
138. I got a load you can handle.Copy !req
139. Not the toilet!Copy !req
140. No!Copy !req
141. Looks like
it's lights out for Dr Light.Copy !req
142. We're off
the grid again!Copy !req
143. Then I guess
that leaves just one question.Copy !req
144. Who wants some meatloaf?Copy !req
145. Freedom!Copy !req
