1. Typical of Victor Von Doom to build
a 30-foot statue of himself.
Copy !req
2. Well, it's obviously aimed
at first-time visitors
Copy !req
3. to create feelings
of smallness, inadequacy.
Copy !req
4. Good thing it ain't working.
Copy !req
5. Reed, what are we doing here?
This guy's fast-food, strip-mall science.
Copy !req
6. This wasn't our first stop,
in case you forgot.
Copy !req
7. Besides, Victor's not that bad.
He's just a little larger than life.
Copy !req
8. My research suggests that exposure
to a high-energy cosmic storm
Copy !req
9. borne on solar winds might have triggered
the evolution of early planetary life.
Copy !req
10. In six weeks, another cloud
with the same elemental profile
Copy !req
11. will pass Earth's orbit.
Copy !req
12. A study conducted in space could
fundamentally advance our knowledge
Copy !req
13. about the structure of the human genome,
cure countless diseases,
Copy !req
14. extend human life, give kids a chance
to live longer, stronger, healthier...
Copy !req
15. Turn it off, please.
Copy !req
16. I don't think I have explained
my proposal fully.
Copy !req
17. No, I think you have.
Copy !req
18. Same old Reed, always stretching,
reaching for the stars
Copy !req
19. with the weight of the world on his back.
Copy !req
20. But dreams don't pay the bills, do they?
Copy !req
21. You remember, when we were in school
we talked about working together.
Copy !req
22. Well, that's what I was about to explain.
Copy !req
23. The storm is deadly.
Copy !req
24. But the shields on
your station's control room
Copy !req
25. are designed to protect
any occupants inside.
Copy !req
26. So, it's not just my money you want.
Copy !req
27. It's my toys.
Copy !req
28. Tell me, if NASA doesn't trust you,
then why should I?
Copy !req
29. That's my job, to stay a step ahead.
Copy !req
30. To know what other men don't.
Copy !req
31. I can't take this.
Copy !req
32. Ben, this is business, just work.
Copy !req
33. He's right, Ben. It is just business.
Copy !req
34. I think you both know my Director
of Genetic Research, Susan Storm.
Copy !req
35. One more thing he's got.
Copy !req
36. - Hey, Susie.
- Hey.
Copy !req
37. It's so nice to see you. How's Debbie?
Copy !req
38. - Great.
- Great.
Copy !req
39. - How have you been?
- Never better.
Copy !req
40. This isn't going to be a problem, is it?
Copy !req
41. - No.
- Not at all.
Copy !req
42. Good.
Copy !req
43. Then you're just in time
to hear the great Reed Richards
Copy !req
44. ask me for help.
Copy !req
45. You know, you made a lot of folks at MIT
feel like a junior high science fair.
Copy !req
46. So you'll excuse me
if I savor the moment.
Copy !req
47. You back this mission and I'll sign over
a fair percentage of any application...
Copy !req
48. The number's 75%.
Copy !req
49. And its applications and patents.
Copy !req
50. - What about his first born?
- Ben...
Copy !req
51. Come on.
Copy !req
52. 25% of a billion is enough
to keep the lights on for a while, isn't it?
Copy !req
53. Maybe even pay off your fourth mortgage
on the Baxter Building.
Copy !req
54. Deal?
Copy !req
55. Well, then. To our future.
Copy !req
56. Together!
Copy !req
57. It's funny how things turn out, isn't it?
Copy !req
58. Hilarious.
Copy !req
59. He knew about NASA.
Maybe he made the call to shut us down.
Copy !req
60. Ben, think about all the people
we can help if this works.
Copy !req
61. Look, we got what we wanted.
That's enough.
Copy !req
62. A few days in space, it'll be great.
What's the worst that can happen?
Copy !req
63. If Reed's right, this little trip
could double our stock offerings.
Copy !req
64. - And if he's not...
- Reed's always right.
Copy !req
65. Good thing he doesn't always know
what he's got.
Copy !req
66. Reed, you should know those solar winds
have been picking up speed.
Copy !req
67. I factored them into my coordinates.
Copy !req
68. Right, of course you did. In theory.
Copy !req
69. It's a little different once you're out there.
Copy !req
70. - I assure you I...
- When are we leaving?
Copy !req
71. I'll be scheduling the launch,
Copy !req
72. so you can call me in the morning
for resources and crew.
Copy !req
73. - I think I remember the number.
- It's been changed.
Copy !req
74. As far as crew, I was hoping
Ben could pilot the mission.
Copy !req
75. We already have a pilot on our payroll
but you're welcome to ride shotgun.
Copy !req
76. Remember my brother, Johnny?
Copy !req
77. Can't do it. Cannot do it.
Copy !req
78. External SRBs, orbital system engines,
it's just like the shuttle you flew.
Copy !req
79. No! I cannot take orders
from the underwear model.
Copy !req
80. - Come on now, Ben.
- That wingnut washed out of NASA
Copy !req
81. for sneaking two Victoria's Secret
wannabes into a flight simulator.
Copy !req
82. Youthful high spirits.
Copy !req
83. They crashed it into a wall.
A flight simulator.
Copy !req
84. When have I ever asked you
to do something
Copy !req
85. you absolutely said you could not do?
Copy !req
86. Five times.
Copy !req
87. - I had it at four.
- Well, this makes five.
Copy !req
88. Attention, all personnel.
Copy !req
89. Commencing launch sequence
in six hours.
Copy !req
90. I miss you already, Debs.
Copy !req
91. Captain on the bridge!
Copy !req
92. Digital camera: $254. Memory stick: $59.
Copy !req
93. The look on your hard-ass
former CO's face
Copy !req
94. when he finds out he's your junior officer:
Copy !req
95. Priceless.
Copy !req
96. Thank you. That's so sweet.
Copy !req
97. I can handle the ship.
Copy !req
98. I can even handle Mr. Blond Ambition.
Copy !req
99. But I don't know whether I should be
flying or doing Swan Lake in these suits.
Copy !req
100. - I mean, who the hell came up with these?
- Victor did.
Copy !req
101. The synthetics act as a second skin,
adapting to your body's individual needs.
Copy !req
102. See, now that means
it keeps the hot stuff hot
Copy !req
103. and it keeps the cool stuff cool.
Copy !req
104. Wow. Fantastic.
Copy !req
105. Material made from self-regulating
unstable molecules.
Copy !req
106. I've been working on a formula for this.
Copy !req
107. Great minds think alike.
Copy !req
108. - Here you go, Ben.
- Thanks, sweetie.
Copy !req
109. Reed.
Copy !req
110. nine hours.
Copy !req
111. If you're good, maybe next time
Daddy'll let you drive.
Copy !req
112. You keep talking
and there won't be a next time.
Copy !req
113. Long way from the projection booth
at the Hayden Planetarium, isn't it?
Copy !req
114. Yes. Yes, it is.
Copy !req
115. We can monitor the cloud's approach
and observe the tests from here.
Copy !req
116. Is it safe?
Copy !req
117. The shields on the station
should protect us.
Copy !req
118. Should?
Copy !req
119. What's the matter, Ben?
Getting paranoid in your old age?
Copy !req
120. Let's start loading those samples.
Get your suit ready, Ben.
Copy !req
121. So I see you're still doing
all the heavy lifting.
Copy !req
122. Maybe you should have stayed in the lab.
Field work never suited you.
Copy !req
123. He does the talking, I do the walking.
Got it?
Copy !req
124. So take a walk, Ben.
Copy !req
125. Actually, if you'll all excuse me,
I need to borrow Susan for a moment.
Copy !req
126. Sure.
Copy !req
127. Please tell me your guy's not trying
to rekindle things with my sister again.
Copy !req
128. Of course not. It's strictly business.
Copy !req
129. Yes, well, his eyes say differently,
don't they?
Copy !req
130. Two hearts got busted last time.
Maybe she's not over it, either.
Copy !req
131. Wow, Dr. Phil, that's deep.
Let's think about that.
Copy !req
132. You got Victor, more money than God,
stud of the year.
Copy !req
133. And you got Reed, world's dumbest smart
guy, worth less than a postage stamp.
Copy !req
134. That's a real toss-up.
Copy !req
135. Don't trouble your tiny little mind.
Copy !req
136. Don't wander off now, boy.
Copy !req
137. Securing airlock chamber.
Copy !req
138. Surprised I agreed to Reed's proposal?
Copy !req
139. I understand the business reasons.
Copy !req
140. Well, when you're looking at your future
Copy !req
141. it doesn't hurt
to find closure about the past.
Copy !req
142. Susan, every man dreams he'll meet
a woman he can give the world to.
Copy !req
143. In my case, it's not just a metaphor.
Copy !req
144. Opening viewing station shield.
Copy !req
145. That can't be right.
Copy !req
146. Event threshold
in T-minus 9 minutes, 47 seconds.
Copy !req
147. That's impossible.
It should be seven hours.
Copy !req
148. We've been together two years now.
Copy !req
149. It's been a good two years, Victor.
The company's accomplished so much.
Copy !req
150. Right, of course, the company.
Copy !req
151. But, you see, I've come to realize that
all the accomplishments in the world
Copy !req
152. mean nothing without someone
to share them with.
Copy !req
153. I've lived my life
unafraid of taking big steps.
Copy !req
154. Now it's time to take the biggest step
of all.
Copy !req
155. - Victor.
- If it helps, think of this as a promotion.
Copy !req
156. - Victor, I...
- I have four words.
Copy !req
157. Four little words that can change
our lives forever.
Copy !req
158. The cloud is accelerating.
Copy !req
159. We've got minutes until it hits, not hours.
Copy !req
160. Victor, that storm is deadly.
We need to abort.
Copy !req
161. Get a grip, Reed. We didn't come all this
way to lose our nerve at the first glitch.
Copy !req
162. Just close the shields.
Copy !req
163. - Ben is still out there.
- So reel him in.
Copy !req
164. But we came here to do a job,
so let's do it quickly.
Copy !req
165. Victor, Reed's right.
We have less than six minutes!
Copy !req
166. - Ben, you need to get inside now.
- What's going on?
Copy !req
167. I ain't done
arranging your flowers yet, egghead.
Copy !req
168. Ben, turn around!
Copy !req
169. Guys, I'm not gonna make it.
Copy !req
170. Ben, you gotta jump. It's the only way!
Copy !req
171. - What are you doing?
- Closing the shields.
Copy !req
172. - You can't just leave them out there.
- Watch me.
Copy !req
173. - You can't help them any more than I can.
- I can try.
Copy !req
174. Come on, Ben, you got it!
Copy !req
175. Okay, Johnny,
get ready to close the portal.
Copy !req
176. Wake up. Ben.
Copy !req
177. Rise and shine, big boy. How you feeling?
Copy !req
178. Where am I?
Copy !req
179. Back on Earth. We're in quarantine.
Victor's medical facility.
Copy !req
180. Reed? Sue?
Copy !req
181. They're fine. Everybody else is fine.
Copy !req
182. What's wrong with me?
Copy !req
183. I swear to you, Ben. They've done
everything humanly possible.
Copy !req
184. The best plastic surgeons
in the world are here, Ben.
Copy !req
185. You had the best.
Copy !req
186. - Give me that mirror.
- I don't know if that's a good idea.
Copy !req
187. - They said the shock alone...
- I said give me that goddamn mirror!
Copy !req
188. Okay, Ben, just be strong.
Copy !req
189. Unfortunately, the doctors
just couldn't do anything to fix your face.
Copy !req
190. - Hi.
- Hey.
Copy !req
191. Nice do. I'm liking the grandpa look.
Copy !req
192. What?
Copy !req
193. - How's she doing?
- Stable and her vitals are strong.
Copy !req
194. Blood panels show no irradiation. Good.
Copy !req
195. - You'll step up this protocol every...
- Every four hours, yes.
Copy !req
196. We know what we're doing.
Copy !req
197. Another day of observation
and you're all clear.
Copy !req
198. Excuse me.
More flowers from Mr. Von Doom.
Copy !req
199. She's allergic to orchids.
Copy !req
200. Put the sunflowers by her bed,
they're her favorites.
Copy !req
201. Well, Victor,
Copy !req
202. the bank would like to congratulate you
Copy !req
203. on the fastest freefall
since the Depression.
Copy !req
204. We can't even give your stock away.
Copy !req
205. Ned, you know I can turn this around.
Copy !req
206. Well, you're going to have to, Victor,
or we pull out.
Copy !req
207. You have a week.
Copy !req
208. You're enjoying this, aren't you, Ned?
Copy !req
209. One week.
Copy !req
210. Where do we think we're going?
Copy !req
211. I don't know if we've noticed
Copy !req
212. but the sickest runs this side of the Alps
are right outside that window.
Copy !req
213. Yeah, I've noticed,
but there are rules here.
Copy !req
214. - You can't leave until we...
- Until we've finish the tests.
Copy !req
215. I know, I've never been good with rules.
You let me know how those come out.
Copy !req
216. - Do you wanna help me with this zipper?
- You know, this is not a ski resort.
Copy !req
217. Not yet. Luckily, Grandma still sends
care packages, though.
Copy !req
218. You know, it's amazing, for an 80-year-old
woman, you'd be surprised...
Copy !req
219. - You are trouble.
- Trouble is my middle name.
Copy !req
220. You're hot!
Copy !req
221. Why, thank you. So are you.
And I'm not afraid to cry.
Copy !req
222. No, I mean, you feel a little feverish.
Copy !req
223. Well, I've never felt better in my life.
My God, you smell good.
Copy !req
224. Listen, when do you get off work?
Copy !req
225. - 4:00, but I...
- Tell you what.
Copy !req
226. You meet me at 4:01
at the top of the mountain.
Copy !req
227. That'll give you a minute to freshen up.
This is yours, that's mine.
Copy !req
228. Nurses!
Copy !req
229. How long was I out?
Copy !req
230. Three days. Man, I was worried about you.
Copy !req
231. - How are you feeling?
- Solid.
Copy !req
232. - That was a close one, though, huh?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
233. - What was that about?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
234. I really don't know.
Copy !req
235. I've been going over the figures
again and again and they all add up.
Copy !req
236. I just don't understand.
Maybe I should have aborted...
Copy !req
237. Reed, it was a freak of nature.
You couldn't have possibly predicted it.
Copy !req
238. Let it go.
Copy !req
239. You know, you live through
something like this,
Copy !req
240. it really makes you appreciate
having the right woman in your life.
Copy !req
241. - Yeah, you and Debbie are perfect.
- I'm not talking about Debbie.
Copy !req
242. What? Come on.
Copy !req
243. She's got a good thing with Victor.
Copy !req
244. He's smart, he's powerful,
he's successful...
Copy !req
245. Well, maybe you should date him then.
Copy !req
246. Ben, she ended up with the right guy.
Copy !req
247. Things worked out for the best.
Copy !req
248. Do I have to do everything myself?
Copy !req
249. All right.
I think you should stay to the right.
Copy !req
250. The left might give you trouble.
Copy !req
251. - I think we should drop, like, 10 more feet.
- Good.
Copy !req
252. Last one down springs for room service!
Copy !req
253. That's my future wife.
Copy !req
254. You're losing!
Copy !req
255. All right, no more kid's stuff.
Copy !req
256. Check this out.
Copy !req
257. You're on fire.
Copy !req
258. Thanks! You're pretty good, too.
Copy !req
259. No, you're on fire. Look!
Copy !req
260. Care to join me?
Copy !req
261. I can only stay for one drink
'cause I have to meet Victor.
Copy !req
262. Well, wouldn't want to keep Vic waiting.
Copy !req
263. Reed, what are you doing here?
Copy !req
264. I thought...
Copy !req
265. Great! Maybe you can join us.
Copy !req
266. How's the IPO now?
Copy !req
267. It's falling. We're looking at low 20s.
Copy !req
268. It's a good number
considering the fallout from...
Copy !req
269. From Reed's disaster?
Copy !req
270. Get me on the a.m. Shows,
Larry King, the cover of the Journal.
Copy !req
271. I have to do something about this scar.
Copy !req
272. Make sure they only shoot me
from my left side.
Copy !req
273. Actually, the scar's tracking well.
Copy !req
274. People seem to think it humanizes you.
Copy !req
275. And that's a good thing?
Copy !req
276. You know,
maybe you should get some rest.
Copy !req
277. Later.
Copy !req
278. First, I have some unfinished business.
Copy !req
279. A deal that needs closing.
Copy !req
280. Sir, I have always wondered, why Sue?
Copy !req
281. You could have any other woman
in the world.
Copy !req
282. That's why.
Because I could have any other woman.
Copy !req
283. - No, let me tell the story.
- No, let him tell the story.
Copy !req
284. - You all right?
- Yeah, bad shrimp.
Copy !req
285. I think I better go lie down.
Copy !req
286. Excuse me.
Copy !req
287. Oh, God!
Copy !req
288. So, you feeling better?
Copy !req
289. Yes, thank you.
Copy !req
290. Good.
Copy !req
291. That's... good.
Copy !req
292. You always had a way with words.
Copy !req
293. Wow. I should be going because
Copy !req
294. I have to meet Victor.
Copy !req
295. I'm really happy for you and Victor.
Copy !req
296. You're really happy for me and Victor?
Copy !req
297. I can tell you guys are enjoying
what was the best part of our relationship.
Copy !req
298. - Which was?
- Passion
Copy !req
299. for science.
Copy !req
300. You're such a dork, Reed.
Copy !req
301. You never got it,
Copy !req
302. - and you never will...
- Well, what did I say?
Copy !req
303. unless it's explained to you
in quantum physics.
Copy !req
304. I just wanted to let you know that I...
Copy !req
305. It's been two years
and all you can say is that you're happy
Copy !req
306. for me and some other guy?
Copy !req
307. Victor may be a lot of things.
Copy !req
308. But at least he's not afraid
to fight for what he wants.
Copy !req
309. It's nice to be wanted sometimes, Reed.
Copy !req
310. To be seen and heard.
Copy !req
311. Look at me.
Copy !req
312. I can't.
Copy !req
313. What do you mean, you can't?
Look at me!
Copy !req
314. Sue, look at your hands!
Copy !req
315. Hey, you guys.
Copy !req
316. You are never gonna believe
what just happened to me.
Copy !req
317. What?
Copy !req
318. Well, I can explain this.
Copy !req
319. It has to be the cloud.
It's fundamentally altered our DNA.
Copy !req
320. Let's not jump to conclusions.
Copy !req
321. We need a massive amount of evidence
before making that leap.
Copy !req
322. Guys, look!
Copy !req
323. Now, picture that, but everywhere.
Copy !req
324. It was everywhere.
Copy !req
325. What?
Copy !req
326. The cloud has fundamentally altered
our DNA.
Copy !req
327. - Cool!
- We need to find Ben.
Copy !req
328. And you know what, guys?
I think I was flying.
Copy !req
329. I said, cut it out, Johnny.
Copy !req
330. - I'm getting the hang of it.
- Johnny.
Copy !req
331. - Ben, it's Reed.
- Stop.
Copy !req
332. - All right.
- All right?
Copy !req
333. - Yes.
- God!
Copy !req
334. - God?
- What's wrong with you?
Copy !req
335. - What?
- Sue, do you know the code?
Copy !req
336. I might.
Copy !req
337. Ben, open up.
Copy !req
338. You all right, Ben?
Copy !req
339. Does somebody have keys to these doors?
Copy !req
340. Anybody?
Copy !req
341. Just break the glass. It can't be that thick.
Copy !req
342. Give me another couple of seconds, guys.
I almost got it.
Copy !req
343. That's gross.
Copy !req
344. Ben?
Copy !req
345. Look, look, look, look, look.
Copy !req
346. What is that thing?
Copy !req
347. What's going on?
Copy !req
348. What happened in here?
Copy !req
349. Victor, are you feeling all right?
Copy !req
350. I'm fine. Just a few scrapes, that's all.
Copy !req
351. Ben did this.
Copy !req
352. He's had some kind of reaction
to exposure from the cloud.
Copy !req
353. We all have different symptoms.
Copy !req
354. Symptoms?
Copy !req
355. - Victor, I should have...
- Just find him.
Copy !req
356. Anybody got any ideas
where the big guy's going?
Copy !req
357. He's going home.
Copy !req
358. You gotta be kidding me.
Copy !req
359. Little buttons.
Copy !req
360. Hello, Operator?
Copy !req
361. - Hello?
- Debs?
Copy !req
362. - It's me.
- Ben?
Copy !req
363. Are you all right?
You sound a little different.
Copy !req
364. - Listen, I need you to come out front.
- Out front?
Copy !req
365. You're home, baby?
Copy !req
366. Yeah.
Copy !req
367. I got a surprise for you.
Copy !req
368. Yeah, I got a little one for you, too.
Copy !req
369. Ben?
Copy !req
370. Where are you?
Copy !req
371. I'm over here.
Copy !req
372. Don't come any closer for a sec, okay?
Copy !req
373. It's gonna be a bit of a shock.
Copy !req
374. Honey, what's going on?
Copy !req
375. Debs,
Copy !req
376. remember when we used to say,
Copy !req
377. "Together forever no matter what?"
Copy !req
378. Yeah.
Copy !req
379. Well...
Copy !req
380. Baby, you're scaring me.
Copy !req
381. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
382. Deb, it's me. It's still me.
Copy !req
383. It was the accident. Let me explain.
Copy !req
384. - No! Don't touch me!
- Debs!
Copy !req
385. Hey, I'm calling the police.
Copy !req
386. Everybody all right?
Copy !req
387. I saw him. It's that guy over there!
Copy !req
388. Okay, so he was there last night.
Copy !req
389. Debbie's gonna meet us
on the other side of the bridge.
Copy !req
390. Yeah, Ben.
Copy !req
391. "A few days in space. It'll be great.
Copy !req
392. "What's the worst that could happen?"
Copy !req
393. Hey, little guy.
Copy !req
394. You're not afraid of me, are you?
Copy !req
395. Perfect.
Copy !req
396. Thanks.
Copy !req
397. Hey!
Copy !req
398. You think you've got problems?
You take a good look, pal.
Copy !req
399. How bad could it be, right?
Copy !req
400. I don't think you...
Copy !req
401. Okay, pal. Take it easy.
No, don't go out there.
Copy !req
402. Look, I said stop, you fruitcake!
Copy !req
403. No. Come close.
Copy !req
404. That's further. Come closer.
Copy !req
405. I said, stop! No!
Copy !req
406. Come here.
Copy !req
407. All right, calm down.
Copy !req
408. You wanna be scared?
Copy !req
409. - Fine!
- No!
Copy !req
410. Get back, everybody! Get back!
Copy !req
411. Get back in your vehicle.
We'll tell you when you can go.
Copy !req
412. - What do we do now?
- We're not going to get past these guys.
Copy !req
413. But you could.
Copy !req
414. Sorry about the truck, pal. Come on.
Copy !req
415. A little help, here?
You wanna hit the button, sir?
Copy !req
416. It's stuck.
Copy !req
417. Sue, your clothes. Lose them.
Copy !req
418. Right.
Copy !req
419. This is so wrong.
Copy !req
420. - Wow, you've been working out.
- Shut up!
Copy !req
421. All right.
Copy !req
422. All right, freeze!
Copy !req
423. Now just...
Copy !req
424. Just put the man in the seat down.
Copy !req
425. Do it!
Copy !req
426. Any more great ideas?
Copy !req
427. Why don't you strip down
and have a 100 people stare at you?
Copy !req
428. - Sue.
- What?
Copy !req
429. I'm gonna need therapy.
Copy !req
430. Come on, let's get out of here.
Copy !req
431. Excuse me. Coming through.
Copy !req
432. All right, now just back away from him.
Copy !req
433. And I want you to put your hands
on your head...
Copy !req
434. 954 approaching scene.
Copy !req
435. I still can't believe you made me do that.
Copy !req
436. We got through, didn't we? Just find Ben.
Copy !req
437. Ben! Ben!
Copy !req
438. Mom! Mom!
Copy !req
439. Stay here, okay?
Copy !req
440. I'm coming.
Copy !req
441. Hold on.
Copy !req
442. Hang on!
Copy !req
443. I 9011 you.
Copy !req
444. Get down on the ground.
Copy !req
445. Get down on the ground now!
Copy !req
446. Ben.
Copy !req
447. I swear to you
Copy !req
448. I will do everything in my power
Copy !req
449. until there is not a breath left in me.
Copy !req
450. You're going to be Ben again.
Copy !req
451. I told you I felt fine.
Copy !req
452. Where are your ears?
Copy !req
453. There are some folks outside
that want to talk to you.
Copy !req
454. We're not going public with this.
Copy !req
455. We're scientists, not celebrities.
Copy !req
456. It's too late, son.
Copy !req
457. Look.
Copy !req
458. when a New York Fire Department
ladder truck...
Copy !req
459. See that?
Copy !req
460. became part of the tragedy.
Copy !req
461. But the rescue itself is not the story.
Copy !req
462. One of the four stretched
to an amazing length...
Copy !req
463. That's what they're calling you.
"The Fantastic Four."
Copy !req
464. - Cool.
- No, wait! Where are you going?
Copy !req
465. I'm gonna go talk to them.
Copy !req
466. No, we should think this through.
Copy !req
467. That's great. Brainstorm.
Copy !req
468. Get back here, right now. Johnny!
Copy !req
469. Settle down.
Copy !req
470. Do you believe this?
Copy !req
471. Which one of you is the leader?
Copy !req
472. That would be me.
Copy !req
473. No, seriously.
Copy !req
474. Okay, son. You're on.
Copy !req
475. During our recent mission
to the Von Doom space station,
Copy !req
476. we were exposed to
as yet unidentified radioactive energy.
Copy !req
477. - What happened on the bridge?
- How can you stretch?
Copy !req
478. - Were you really on fire?
- Is it true you can fly?
Copy !req
479. Yeah, I'm working on it.
It's actually really difficult.
Copy !req
480. No, actually, we do not know
much more than you do at this point.
Copy !req
481. Sir, Larry King just canceled.
Copy !req
482. Apparently, there's a bigger story.
Copy !req
483. Actually, here they come now.
You had to see it to believe it, folks.
Copy !req
484. - The man...
- ... named The Fantastic Four...
Copy !req
485. We'll be going directly to our lab
to diagnose our symptoms.
Copy !req
486. Symptoms? Is this some kind of disease?
Copy !req
487. No. It's not a disease.
Copy !req
488. If having special powers is a disease,
then, yeah, we got it bad.
Copy !req
489. Excuse me,
that thing doesn't look so fantastic.
Copy !req
490. Ben Grimm is a genuine American hero.
Copy !req
491. What he means is,
every team needs a mascot.
Copy !req
492. A new day is dawning.
The day of the Fantastic Four.
Copy !req
493. Look!
Copy !req
494. We went up to space
to find a way to understand DNA,
Copy !req
495. cure disease, save lives.
Copy !req
496. Well, now it's our DNA, our disease,
our lives on the line.
Copy !req
497. Thank you. No more questions.
Copy !req
498. This is how you turn things around?
Copy !req
499. These freaks on the front page?
Your companies in the obituaries?
Copy !req
500. I was planning to use the publicity.
Copy !req
501. The board's in agreement,
the bank's lost enough already.
Copy !req
502. - Wait a minute.
- It's too late, Victor.
Copy !req
503. Do you know how much money
I've invested in this company?
Copy !req
504. Victor, stop.
Copy !req
505. This isn't a negotiation. It's a notification.
Copy !req
506. We're pulling out.
Copy !req
507. Is all that for you, Dr. Richards?
Copy !req
508. I'm afraid so.
Copy !req
509. Come on, Ben, smile.
They want to like you, Ben. Say hi.
Copy !req
510. Don't do drugs.
Copy !req
511. Welcome back to the Baxter, Dr. Richards.
Copy !req
512. I have got the usual for you.
Copy !req
513. Good to have you back, sir.
Copy !req
514. Thanks, Willie.
Copy !req
515. We had a tough year.
Copy !req
516. Yeah, like nine straight.
Copy !req
517. Either we're moving really fast
or not at all.
Copy !req
518. I'll take the stairs.
Copy !req
519. How come Ben can't turn it on and off
like we can?
Copy !req
520. That's what we're here to find out.
Copy !req
521. I mean, if it happened to him...
Copy !req
522. What? You mean, like, we won't be able
to turn it off, either?
Copy !req
523. That would save time.
Copy !req
524. You don't really wanna walk around on fire
for the rest of your life, do you?
Copy !req
525. - Is that a trick question?
- Grow up.
Copy !req
526. Come on.
Am I the only guy who thinks this is cool?
Copy !req
527. We should stay here until we can define
the extent of our changes
Copy !req
528. and figure out how to reverse them.
Copy !req
529. But I have to warn you, it's gonna be
a little crowded in some areas.
Copy !req
530. So, what do you think?
Copy !req
531. I don't know, Reed, I think you might be
bringing your work home with you.
Copy !req
532. Come on. Let me show you guys
where you'll be staying.
Copy !req
533. Busy guy.
Copy !req
534. Mr. Von Doom, would you like to comment
on the recent failure of your IPO?
Copy !req
535. What about the rumors of a takeover?
Copy !req
536. God, I was so worried about you.
Copy !req
537. Victor. I'm sorry
I didn't get a chance to call.
Copy !req
538. Please.
Copy !req
539. No apologies.
Copy !req
540. I've arranged for your things to be moved
to one of my condos.
Copy !req
541. You'll have round-the-clock care.
Copy !req
542. Thank you. That's very generous of you.
Copy !req
543. But I think I should stay here
with my brother
Copy !req
544. until we get a handle on things.
Copy !req
545. Susan, I think you should let my doctors
have a look at you.
Copy !req
546. Victor, what are you doing here?
Copy !req
547. I'm starting to wonder the same thing.
Copy !req
548. How much do you know
about what happened to you?
Copy !req
549. Not much.
Copy !req
550. We need to run tests
to see the extent of the damage.
Copy !req
551. Well, you let me know what I can do.
We're all in this together now.
Copy !req
552. Victor, wait.
Copy !req
553. I just wanted to say I'm sorry
the mission didn't go as planned.
Copy !req
554. Didn't go as planned?
It was a catastrophe.
Copy !req
555. You ruined the lives of four people.
Copy !req
556. With all due respect, we're both to blame.
I told you to abort.
Copy !req
557. Abort?
Copy !req
558. I put my company, my name,
billions of dollars on the line.
Copy !req
559. I will not let you make me look like a fool.
Copy !req
560. Victor, if we can understand...
Copy !req
561. I don't wanna understand it!
This isn't one of your science projects!
Copy !req
562. I just wanna fix it. Fast!
Copy !req
563. Is there a problem?
Copy !req
564. No.
Copy !req
565. No problem, Ben.
Copy !req
566. Just pay your damn electric bill
and get to work on finding a cure.
Copy !req
567. He's heating up from his core.
Copy !req
568. And his vitals are completely normal.
Copy !req
569. If we're going to identify
the source of the mutation,
Copy !req
570. we need to isolate
your recombinant DNAs
Copy !req
571. so we can activate positional genomes.
Copy !req
572. We have to do a physical
in order to see what got zapped.
Copy !req
573. Why didn't you just say so?
Copy !req
574. His internal organs are completely solid.
Copy !req
575. How bad is it?
Copy !req
576. You know, I used to smoke.
Copy !req
577. It's not invisibility per se.
Copy !req
578. You should be able to bend light
around other objects, even people,
Copy !req
579. if you could control
your emotional state better.
Copy !req
580. Excuse me?
Copy !req
581. I'm saying, if you had a little more
self-control, you could locate the trigger.
Copy !req
582. Can you remember your exact emotions
on the bridge?
Copy !req
583. Anger.
Copy !req
584. Rage.
Copy !req
585. Frustration.
Copy !req
586. Okay. Ls there any way
to duplicate that feeling?
Copy !req
587. Some memory or...
Copy !req
588. I'm sure I can come up with something.
Copy !req
589. - You feel anything?
- Nope.
Copy !req
590. Okay.
Copy !req
591. It's hotter than I anticipated.
Copy !req
592. - Okay, Johnny, back it down.
- I can go hotter!
Copy !req
593. Johnny, just back it down.
Copy !req
594. - Johnny, back it down right now!
- Johnny!
Copy !req
595. Buzz kill!
You guys are cramping my style.
Copy !req
596. Johnny, you were at 4,000 Kelvin.
Copy !req
597. Any hotter
and you're approaching supernova.
Copy !req
598. - Sweet!
- No, not sweet!
Copy !req
599. That's the temperature of the sun.
Copy !req
600. Not only could you kill yourself
Copy !req
601. but you could set fire
to Earth's atmosphere
Copy !req
602. and destroy all human life as we know it.
Copy !req
603. Got it. Bad.
Copy !req
604. How's that coming?
Copy !req
605. - I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
- Yeah, fine.
Copy !req
606. - You sure?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
607. L.-
Copy !req
608. You probably thought
that was some form of latent hostility.
Copy !req
609. What in the world
would give me that idea?
Copy !req
610. I mean, you broke up with me, right?
Copy !req
611. - Are you kidding?
- No.
Copy !req
612. I distinctly remember,
you walked out my door, ergo...
Copy !req
613. I was ready for the next step, you weren't.
Ergo, I walked.
Copy !req
614. I think it was little bit more
complicated than that.
Copy !req
615. I just wanted to share an apartment.
What was so complicated about that?
Copy !req
616. - There were a lot of variables to consider.
- No, there weren't.
Copy !req
617. There was you and me.
There were no variables, no math.
Copy !req
618. It was actually
the simplest thing in the world.
Copy !req
619. But like always, Reed,
your head got in the way.
Copy !req
620. - No, it didn't.
- Then what was it?
Copy !req
621. Did you feel anything when I left?
Copy !req
622. Do you feel anything right now?
Copy !req
623. Hey, guys.
Copy !req
624. I think we have a serious problem.
Copy !req
625. So what's the prognosis?
Copy !req
626. Your tissue, your organs, your entire
biophysical structure is changing.
Copy !req
627. Every system is still functioning somehow.
Copy !req
628. And it's changing into?
Copy !req
629. I don't really know.
Copy !req
630. Some kind of organic-metallic alloy,
Copy !req
631. stronger than titanium or carbon steel,
harder than diamonds.
Copy !req
632. Like the shields
Reed said would protect us.
Copy !req
633. How long?
Copy !req
634. At this rate, the infection could be
complete in two, maybe three weeks.
Copy !req
635. What do you mean complete?
Copy !req
636. I wish I could tell you.
Copy !req
637. I can't pretend to know
what we're dealing with here.
Copy !req
638. I'll have to notify the CDC.
Copy !req
639. - What?
- Center for Disease Control.
Copy !req
640. I know what it is.
Copy !req
641. If this thing is contagious, we may have
a big problem on our hands.
Copy !req
642. We're talking about an epidemic here.
Copy !req
643. Look at me.
Copy !req
644. I have a life.
Copy !req
645. I'm the face of a billion-dollar company.
Copy !req
646. We need to keep this confidential.
Copy !req
647. Victor, this disease is progressive,
degenerative. I have to notify someone...
Copy !req
648. That's terrible news.
Copy !req
649. But I think I'll get a second opinion.
Copy !req
650. Our uniforms were exposed
to the storm, like us.
Copy !req
651. So they can transform like us.
Copy !req
652. Becoming invisible, changing size on
demand or remaining impervious to flame.
Copy !req
653. You guys look like an '80s rock band.
Copy !req
654. You know, Ben, this material stretches.
Copy !req
655. I'm sure I can figure out a way
to make it fit.
Copy !req
656. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing that.
Copy !req
657. I love these costumes. They're missing
something, though. Needs, like, spice.
Copy !req
658. They're not costumes.
Copy !req
659. You can't use your powers in public,
Johnny.
Copy !req
660. - You guys are worse than NASA.
- You could burn somebody.
Copy !req
661. Maybe it's missing a utility belt.
Copy !req
662. Here you go, there's your change.
Copy !req
663. Can I help you, buddy?
Copy !req
664. - Oh, my.
- It's Sue Storm, it's the Invisible Woman!
Copy !req
665. Sue Storm, it is you.
Listen, my kid loves you!
Copy !req
666. I can't believe I'm doing this again.
Copy !req
667. Reed, we really can't go outside anymore.
Copy !req
668. We are on the cover of
every publication from...
Copy !req
669. All right, I'm here, let's make this quick.
I got a lot of places to go today.
Copy !req
670. Oh, wait. I don't go anywhere.
Copy !req
671. Johnny, it's imperative that we stay inside
for the foreseeable future.
Copy !req
672. I know, I know, but when you said that
last time, my brain heard "a week."
Copy !req
673. Johnny, it's too dangerous
for you to be in public.
Copy !req
674. You've been saying that for years.
Copy !req
675. What worries me is
that our powers are evolving.
Copy !req
676. I know! I know!
Copy !req
677. I am so close to flying, guys, I can taste it.
Copy !req
678. - You can't fly.
- Yet.
Copy !req
679. Johnny, can you put that napkin out?
Copy !req
680. Jesus.
Copy !req
681. So what's going on, Reed?
How're you going to cure us?
Copy !req
682. I'm going to build a machine
to recreate the storm.
Copy !req
683. The cosmic rays will travel
from this generator to this chamber.
Copy !req
684. What, no pop-ups'?
Copy !req
685. - If I can reverse the wave signal...
- It'll return us back to normal.
Copy !req
686. Right. But what are the risks?
Copy !req
687. Even a small miscalculation could increase
our symptoms exponentially
Copy !req
688. or perhaps even kill us.
Copy !req
689. Now, dying. That's bad, right?
Copy !req
690. I say we just let sleeping dogs lie, guys.
Copy !req
691. So how long
till this contraption's up and running?
Copy !req
692. - I don't know, it's hard to say.
- How long, Reed?
Copy !req
693. - I don't know.
- You don't know?
Copy !req
694. - Ben, you don't want this to get worse.
- Worse than that?
Copy !req
695. Guys, look, we're gonna be stuck here
for a while, so let's just try and get along.
Copy !req
696. Okay?
Copy !req
697. - You could knock!
- Sorry!
Copy !req
698. Johnny!
Copy !req
699. More bad news for Von Doom Industries
today as Ned Cecil announced
Copy !req
700. that his group of investors
would seek to gain control
Copy !req
701. of Victor Von Doom's numerous
technology companies.
Copy !req
702. Earlier, the IPO was pulled
from the market
Copy !req
703. after the steady decline
of its projected opening price.
Copy !req
704. Von Doom Industries was never able
to overcome the negative publicity...
Copy !req
705. Interesting.
Copy !req
706. Hello?
Copy !req
707. Victor?
Copy !req
708. What's with these lights, huh?
Copy !req
709. About the IPO, no hard feelings, right?
Copy !req
710. Nothing personal.
Copy !req
711. You know, you could always move back
to Latveria.
Copy !req
712. Start fresh.
Copy !req
713. Maybe that's where you belong,
the old country.
Copy !req
714. Nothing personal, Ned.
Copy !req
715. But I'm not going anywhere.
Copy !req
716. . . . Assassinated the competition
everywhere this season.
Copy !req
717. Truly unbelievable.
The crowd is going nuts here at the arena.
Copy !req
718. I tell you, if there's anybody out there
who can do what these guys do,
Copy !req
719. we dare you to come on down here.
Look at this spread-eagle,
Copy !req
720. no arm, back of the seat.
Motobike grab, landed...
Copy !req
721. I got to get out of here.
Copy !req
722. Hey, pretty boy, let's see what you got.
Copy !req
723. Where's your hot sister and the monster?
Copy !req
724. Let's go!
Copy !req
725. All right. All right.
Copy !req
726. I want you all to make a lot of noise
now for a very special guest.
Copy !req
727. Mr. Johnny Storm
from the Fantastic Four!
Copy !req
728. Look at that lift!
Copy !req
729. That was fantastic!
Copy !req
730. But, Johnny, come on. That's old school.
Copy !req
731. Show us something new.
Copy !req
732. Something new.
Copy !req
733. You got it.
Copy !req
734. Come on, Johnny, come on!
Copy !req
735. Is he flying?
Copy !req
736. Wait, no!
Copy !req
737. That's dangerous.
Copy !req
738. I'm okay, I'm all right, I'm good.
Copy !req
739. He's okay! He's all right!
Copy !req
740. Johnny Storm, ladies and gentlemen!
Copy !req
741. I have to give you props, Johnny!
You were on fire!
Copy !req
742. - He didn't.
- Oh, yes, he did.
Copy !req
743. - Flame Boy never listens.
- What did he do to his uniform?
Copy !req
744. Johnny, I've gotta ask you
about this outfit.
Copy !req
745. Yeah, it's sort of
Armani meets astronaut.
Copy !req
746. So what are your superhero names?
Copy !req
747. They call me the Human Torch.
Ladies call me Torch.
Copy !req
748. What about the rest of the team?
Copy !req
749. - That's the Invisible Girl.
- Girl?
Copy !req
750. What about your leader, Reed Richards?
I hear you call him Mr. Fantastic.
Copy !req
751. - Could've been worse.
- I guess.
Copy !req
752. Is it true what they say about him that
he can expand any part of his anatomy?
Copy !req
753. Well, I've always found him
to be a little limp.
Copy !req
754. What is that?
What do you call that thing?
Copy !req
755. That's it. The Thing.
Copy !req
756. Yeah, you think this is bad,
you should have seen him before.
Copy !req
757. Okay. Now I'm gonna go kill him.
Copy !req
758. There he is.
Copy !req
759. - Johnny!
- Can we talk about this later, guys?
Copy !req
760. - No. We can't talk about this later.
- We can do this at home.
Copy !req
761. - What are you thinking?
- Where's my ride?
Copy !req
762. We're totally exposed.
Copy !req
763. You think that's funny, Pebbles?
Copy !req
764. - Johnny!
- What?
Copy !req
765. You gave us names? You don't think.
Copy !req
766. So, now you're the face
of the Fantastic Four?
Copy !req
767. A face that's about to be broken!
Copy !req
768. Look, this isn't permanent, Johnny.
Copy !req
769. We need to be careful
until we're normal again.
Copy !req
770. What if I don't wanna be normal?
I didn't turn into a monster!
Copy !req
771. Ben!
Copy !req
772. Did you just...
Copy !req
773. Johnny, stop it.
Copy !req
774. - That's it, Tinkerbell!
- No, Ben.
Copy !req
775. You wanna fly? Then fly!
Copy !req
776. Wait a minute, guys! Ben, don't do this!
Copy !req
777. Let's see if we can get blood
from a stone.
Copy !req
778. Let's see. Bring it, burnout!
Copy !req
779. You two need a time-out!
Copy !req
780. Talk to blockhead, he started it.
Copy !req
781. I don't care. Damn it, Johnny.
Copy !req
782. Ben, wait!
Copy !req
783. What?
Copy !req
784. You need to control yourself
and think before you act.
Copy !req
785. Yeah, but see, that's your problem.
You always think, you never act.
Copy !req
786. What if we got these powers for a reason?
What if it's like some higher calling?
Copy !req
787. A higher calling?
Like getting girls and making money?
Copy !req
788. Is there any higher?
Copy !req
789. You know what, Reed?
This is who we are.
Copy !req
790. Accept it.
Copy !req
791. Or better yet, enjoy it.
Copy !req
792. Wait, Ben, slow down. He didn't mean it.
Copy !req
793. You know Johnny.
He's always been a hothead.
Copy !req
794. It ain't him. It's them!
Copy !req
795. I can't live like this.
Copy !req
796. Just give Reed a little more time.
You know how he works.
Copy !req
797. Analyzing every little step
before he takes one.
Copy !req
798. - It's easy for you to be patient.
- No, it's not!
Copy !req
799. I thought I was done waiting for Reed,
but I...
Copy !req
800. - We're all in this together, Ben.
- Together?
Copy !req
801. Susie, look at me.
You got no idea what I'd...
Copy !req
802. What I'd give to be invisible.
Copy !req
803. Thank you, gentlemen.
Copy !req
804. I'm just gonna pick up a few things
Copy !req
805. for some friends.
Copy !req
806. Perfect.
Copy !req
807. That's not funny.
Copy !req
808. This is Ben Grimm here.
Copy !req
809. The first mook from Brooklyn
to go into outer space.
Copy !req
810. So pay him some respect.
Copy !req
811. Just give me the usual and I'm out.
Copy !req
812. All right.
Copy !req
813. - Make it a double.
- Make it a triple.
Copy !req
814. - Put it on my tab, Ernie.
- All right, Alicia.
Copy !req
815. Appreciate it.
Copy !req
816. No problem.
Copy !req
817. It's okay, Ben.
Copy !req
818. If there's a God, he hates me.
Copy !req
819. She is not so into hate.
Copy !req
820. If you could see me,
you wouldn't be saying that.
Copy !req
821. Then let me see you.
Copy !req
822. Can I?
Copy !req
823. - Be careful.
- It's okay.
Copy !req
824. So sad.
Copy !req
825. You know,
being different isn't always a bad thing.
Copy !req
826. Trust me. This ain't one of them times.
Copy !req
827. Not if you don't want it to be.
Copy !req
828. - All right, Ernie, I'm out of here.
- I'll take you.
Copy !req
829. See you later, Benny.
Copy !req
830. I'm Alicia, by the way.
Copy !req
831. Thanks, Ernie.
Copy !req
832. Reed got what he wanted.
Copy !req
833. And everything he wanted
Copy !req
834. he took from me.
Copy !req
835. Now it's time to take it back.
Copy !req
836. But first,
I need to get rid of his bodyguard.
Copy !req
837. This seat taken?
Copy !req
838. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
839. I was worried about you.
Copy !req
840. You were worried about me?
That's sweet.
Copy !req
841. Come on.
Let me buy you something to eat.
Copy !req
842. Looks like you could use the company.
Copy !req
843. Reed?
Copy !req
844. - I was just resting my eyes.
- So I see.
Copy !req
845. The new readouts look very promising.
Copy !req
846. Not promising enough.
Copy !req
847. When are the next tests?
Copy !req
848. I've run out of plans.
Copy !req
849. So I was thinking maybe...
Copy !req
850. There's always me.
Copy !req
851. No. It's too soon.
Copy !req
852. - Reed?
- I should get back to work.
Copy !req
853. - You need a break.
- Sue, not now, please.
Copy !req
854. Come on. Let's go.
Copy !req
855. Remember our first date here?
God, I was nervous.
Copy !req
856. You know, I bribed the projectionist
10 bucks to keep the place open late.
Copy !req
857. Really? I gave him 20.
Copy !req
858. - No.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
859. - No way.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
860. I didn't want that night to end.
Copy !req
861. Sue.
Copy !req
862. You were right, it wasn't complicated.
Copy !req
863. I just wasn't ready to...
Copy !req
864. You always talked about how you liked
the kind of man who could approach you,
Copy !req
865. speak his mind.
Copy !req
866. One who wasn't afraid to tell you
exactly what he wanted.
Copy !req
867. I did.
Copy !req
868. But I wanted you to be that man.
Copy !req
869. Well, why didn't you say something?
Copy !req
870. Reed, I'm saying it now.
Copy !req
871. Excuse me.
Copy !req
872. I know it's not easy.
Copy !req
873. Life hasn't changed that much for Reed,
Sue, or Johnny.
Copy !req
874. At least they can still go out in public.
But for you...
Copy !req
875. If you're trying to cheer me up,
you're doing a hell of a job.
Copy !req
876. You know what I mean, Scarf ace?
Copy !req
877. I'm just saying I know what it's like
to lose something that you love,
Copy !req
878. to see it slip away
and know it's never coming back.
Copy !req
879. Look.
Copy !req
880. Reed is gonna fix me up, okay?
Copy !req
881. For your sake I hope you're right.
Copy !req
882. Look, he's a brilliant man.
Copy !req
883. We should all trust
that he's working as hard as he can.
Copy !req
884. You're his best friend.
Copy !req
885. So what possible reason could he have
for taking his time?
Copy !req
886. I mean, other than spending
more time with Sue.
Copy !req
887. - Wow, I had no idea.
- It's true.
Copy !req
888. Yeah.
Copy !req
889. I have that effect on people.
Copy !req
890. Ben.
Copy !req
891. So you remember my name now, do you?
Copy !req
892. Do you also remember
what you swore to do
Copy !req
893. with every breath in your body?
Copy !req
894. We're working as hard as we can.
Copy !req
895. Yeah. I can tell.
Copy !req
896. - Victor was right.
- Victor?
Copy !req
897. Ben, I don't know if this thing
will change us back or make us worse.
Copy !req
898. I need you to be patient
for a little while longer.
Copy !req
899. Reed, look at me!
Copy !req
900. I am looking.
That's why I can't make a mistake.
Copy !req
901. I've gotta get it right and it's not right yet!
We need to test...
Copy !req
902. I spent my whole life protecting you,
and for what?
Copy !req
903. So you can play Twister
with your girlfriend
Copy !req
904. while I'm the freak of the week?
Copy !req
905. Ben, stop it!
Copy !req
906. - You stay out of this, Susie!
- Stop it, or I will.
Copy !req
907. Get off me, rubber boy!
Copy !req
908. You guys, quit it.
Copy !req
909. Ben!
Copy !req
910. Calm down!
Copy !req
911. Good thing you're flexible enough
to watch your own back.
Copy !req
912. 'Cause I ain't doing it no more.
Copy !req
913. You two are on your own.
Copy !req
914. Look what the marketing guys gave me.
Copy !req
915. Look, check it out, listen.
You're gonna love this.
Copy !req
916. It's clobbering time!
Copy !req
917. It's catchy, right?
Copy !req
918. Isn't that great?
Copy !req
919. That was the prototype.
Copy !req
920. Ben!
Copy !req
921. - Johnny, have you seen Ben?
- Yeah, Sunshine just left.
Copy !req
922. Look, Sue, I'm sorry.
I can't stand this freak show.
Copy !req
923. - I gotta get back to the real world.
- You're calling that the real world?
Copy !req
924. Sue, stop. You're not Mom.
Don't talk to me like I'm a little boy, okay?
Copy !req
925. Maybe I would
if you stopped acting like one.
Copy !req
926. Do you even hear yourself?
Who do you think you are?
Copy !req
927. Why is everyone on my ass?
If you guys are jealous, that's fine.
Copy !req
928. I didn't expect it
to come from you, though.
Copy !req
929. You really think those people out there
care about you?
Copy !req
930. You're just a fad to them, Johnny!
Copy !req
931. Let's try something new.
You live your life, I'll live mine.
Copy !req
932. Sound good?
Copy !req
933. And just for the record, they love me!
Copy !req
934. Oh, God. Reed.
Copy !req
935. Oh, my God, Reed. What did you do?
Copy !req
936. - I can make it work.
- No!
Copy !req
937. I need more power to control the storm.
Copy !req
938. More power?
Copy !req
939. - You need a doctor. Come with me.
- Sue.
Copy !req
940. - One more try...
- You need to rest.
Copy !req
941. Leonard, bring me our lab rat.
Copy !req
942. Ben. Come in.
Copy !req
943. What is this? Where's Reed?
Copy !req
944. Where do you think? With Sue.
Copy !req
945. I'll take it from here, Leonard.
Copy !req
946. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
947. What do you want, Vic?
Copy !req
948. To help you.
Copy !req
949. The machine is ready.
Copy !req
950. But Reed said it wouldn't...
Copy !req
951. He also said we'd avoid
that storm in space
Copy !req
952. but we all know how that turned out.
Copy !req
953. He couldn't generate enough power
for the machine to reach critical mass.
Copy !req
954. Yet another mistake for Mr. Fantastic.
Copy !req
955. - And you can?
- Yes.
Copy !req
956. Tell me,
Copy !req
957. do you want to be Ben Grimm again?
Copy !req
958. Thank you.
Copy !req
959. Vic?
Copy !req
960. Vic?
Copy !req
961. Vic?
Copy !req
962. Vic, it worked.
Copy !req
963. Vic?
Copy !req
964. Everyone thought I was safe
behind those shields.
Copy !req
965. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
966. The machine worked for me.
It can work for you, too!
Copy !req
967. It did, Ben. It worked perfectly.
Copy !req
968. - You planned this.
- I've always wanted power.
Copy !req
969. Now I have an unlimited supply.
Copy !req
970. And no Thing to stand in your way.
Copy !req
971. Take a good look, Ben.
Copy !req
972. This is what a man looks like
who embraces his destiny.
Copy !req
973. One down, three to go.
Copy !req
974. Vic?
Copy !req
975. Right on cue.
Copy !req
976. Ben?
Copy !req
977. - What did you do?
- Exactly what I said I would.
Copy !req
978. I built a better, stronger being.
Copy !req
979. And outsmarted the great Reed Richards.
Copy !req
980. If you've exposed yourself to the storm,
you're endangering your life.
Copy !req
981. - You need help.
- You always know best.
Copy !req
982. So tell me, what happens
when you superheat rubber?
Copy !req
983. No!
Copy !req
984. Mr. Von Doom, are you okay?
Copy !req
985. Never better, Jimmy.
Copy !req
986. Why the long face? Let's talk in my office.
Copy !req
987. Ben.
Copy !req
988. Sue!
Copy !req
989. Johnny, the machine worked!
Copy !req
990. Give me a hand. Come on.
Copy !req
991. Ben.
Copy !req
992. Get his arm.
Copy !req
993. You all right, Ben? Put him on the step.
Copy !req
994. What happened, big guy?
I leave you for five minutes...
Copy !req
995. The machine.
Copy !req
996. Vic used it on himself.
He was affected by the cloud like us.
Copy !req
997. - Where's Reed?
- Vic must have taken him.
Copy !req
998. Dr. Richards,
allow me to begin your lesson.
Copy !req
999. Chemistry 101.
Copy !req
1000. What happens to rubber
when it's supercooled?
Copy !req
1001. Give up?
Copy !req
1002. That's not like you, Reed.
Copy !req
1003. After all, we're both doctors.
Copy !req
1004. Painful?
Copy !req
1005. You don't know the meaning of the word.
Copy !req
1006. Just a little something
from our defense contracts.
Copy !req
1007. Let's check in on the rest of the family,
shall we?
Copy !req
1008. We've got to get out of here.
Copy !req
1009. Oh, no.
Copy !req
1010. Wait a minute. I got an idea!
Copy !req
1011. - Don't even think about it.
- Never do.
Copy !req
1012. What are you doing? Johnny, no!
Copy !req
1013. Come on, come on, come on, flame on!
Copy !req
1014. We have to help Reed.
Copy !req
1015. It's too dangerous for you now.
You have to stay here.
Copy !req
1016. What did I do?
Copy !req
1017. Come on, think!
Copy !req
1018. Two down, two to go.
Copy !req
1019. Sue.
Copy !req
1020. - What has he done to you?
- How romantic.
Copy !req
1021. Victor, please.
Copy !req
1022. Call me Doom.
Copy !req
1023. The machine works. It worked on Ben,
it can work on you. We can turn you back.
Copy !req
1024. Do you really think fate turned us
into gods so we could refuse these gifts?
Copy !req
1025. Victor, you always thought
you were a god. Now back off.
Copy !req
1026. Susan, let's not fight.
Copy !req
1027. No. Let's.
Copy !req
1028. Susan, you're fired!
Copy !req
1029. Marco.
Copy !req
1030. Polo.
Copy !req
1031. Did you say goodbye
to your brother Johnny?
Copy !req
1032. It's time to end this!
Copy !req
1033. No, Vic. It's clobbering time.
Copy !req
1034. Damn, I've been waiting to do that.
Copy !req
1035. Susie, you okay?
Copy !req
1036. Victor ain't that bad, huh?
Copy !req
1037. "He's just a little larger than life," right?
Copy !req
1038. Maybe next time
you'll listen to me before...
Copy !req
1039. Ben!
Copy !req
1040. - Sorry, ladies.
- Stop the car!
Copy !req
1041. Pull over. Hit the brakes!
Copy !req
1042. This is the police.
Copy !req
1043. Put your hands up
and step down from the vehicle!
Copy !req
1044. Take him out!
Copy !req
1045. Ladies, I'm gonna need
to borrow your car.
Copy !req
1046. - The transmission sticks.
- Not gonna be a problem.
Copy !req
1047. I can't let you do that!
Copy !req
1048. Reed?
Copy !req
1049. I'll be right with you.
Copy !req
1050. Hello, Susan.
Copy !req
1051. You three are pathetic.
Copy !req
1052. You missed me.
Copy !req
1053. Had a little relapse, huh?
Copy !req
1054. - Welcome back.
- This is gonna be fun.
Copy !req
1055. I can't hold it!
Copy !req
1056. Johnny, supernova!
Copy !req
1057. I thought we agreed that was bad.
Copy !req
1058. Now!
Copy !req
1059. - Ben!
- Gotcha.
Copy !req
1060. Sue! Think you can contain it?
Copy !req
1061. Flame on, kid.
Copy !req
1062. Is that the best you can do?
Copy !req
1063. Time for your lesson. Chem 101.
Copy !req
1064. What happens
when you rapidly cool hot metal?
Copy !req
1065. Ben!
Copy !req
1066. You done good, kid.
Copy !req
1067. Come on.
Copy !req
1068. Sue, you okay?
Copy !req
1069. Yeah.
Copy !req
1070. Man, I love this job.
Copy !req
1071. Job, huh?
Copy !req
1072. Well, we do have the suits.
Copy !req
1073. Ladies, your drinks.
Copy !req
1074. - I don't think we need another.
- Just one more.
Copy !req
1075. Thank you, thank you so much. Cheers!
Copy !req
1076. I need names and shots.
Copy !req
1077. Bartender!
Copy !req
1078. They're custom-made, 36 EEEE.
Copy !req
1079. Well, look. I've been crunching
the numbers on the machine.
Copy !req
1080. And I think if I can rework
the power settings...
Copy !req
1081. Forget about it, egghead. I'm good as is.
Copy !req
1082. Better than good, baby.
Copy !req
1083. You just need to work on your touch.
Copy !req
1084. I like the sound of that.
Copy !req
1085. - Can I talk to you for a second?
- Sure.
Copy !req
1086. Thanks.
Copy !req
1087. I found a broken gasket from space.
Copy !req
1088. A gasket?
Copy !req
1089. - Reed, come on, we're at a party.
- And if one of us were to wear it...
Copy !req
1090. No more thinking.
Copy !req
1091. No more variables.
Copy !req
1092. Sue Storm,
Copy !req
1093. will you marry me?
Copy !req
1094. Sue, you kind of need to say something.
Copy !req
1095. Yes.
Copy !req
