Fantastic Four (2006) s01e12 Episode Script
Annihilation
(PEOPLE CLAMORING) JOHNNY: Don't sweat it, people.
The Fantastic Four have arrived! Oh, yeah! (CROWD WHOOPING) Do you think Doom did this? JOHNNY: You think that guy would take a hint.
You know, since we beat him last time and the time before and the time before that.
No, this is different.
Similar but different.
I should be able to sap the sphere's energy using the power gauntlet.
Something is not right.
The sphere isn't destructed, and it's almost as if - BEN: Stretch, did you mean to do that? - No.
This isn't good.
Susan, you should Guys? Don't worry, folks, they'll be right back.
They just (ALL SCREAMING) (BEN GROANING) - Thanks for catching me.
- Sorry, Ben.
(JOHNNY YELLING) Hey, I'm sideways.
- Neat.
- Fascinating.
JOHNNY: Are you sure it's not "intriguing"? What's intriguing is that we can breathe.
Where we are is fascinating.
I've always wanted to venture here, ever since I discovered it.
SUZY: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Is this the Negative Zone? The place with the giant bugs? Yes.
And I know you're all thinking, "We should go explore, collect samples "and try to find intelligent life.
" But given the suspicious nature of our arrival here SUZY: Reed What? Oh, come on.
Wasn't I ugly enough? Guys! I never thought I'd say this, but I feel kind of hot.
(GRUNTS) Johnny! I'm sorry.
I didn't What? SUZY: Reed? It would appear that something is affecting our powers.
Whoa! I didn't do that.
Hang on.
I can't turn off.
And, man, am I always this bright? It's like we're absorbing energy.
Maybe even the Zone itself.
Something is supercharging our powers.
SUZY: But, let me guess, there is a downside.
Well, yes.
If our powers continue to increase, there's a danger we might become consumed by them.
JOHNNY: Bummer.
(GRUNTS) Ain't we got enough to contend with? SUZY: Well, you wanted to find intelligent life.
Just once, I'd like to find intelligent life that doesn't want to destroy us.
Okay.
Weird aliens trying to wipe us out, our powers are on overload I have an idea.
Let's get out of here! Agreed.
Ben, Susan, we are leaving.
(GRUNTS) - So much for my pod being fireproof.
- Huh? I'm good.
Let's get out of here.
Whoa! Split up.
We'll rendezvous once we've lost our new friends.
Stop melting when I'm trying to drive! Forget this! No, wait.
No.
Stop it! I need to see this.
Getting tight in here.
Come on, flame off.
Flame off! (JOHNNY GROANS) If I could move right now, it'd be clobbering time.
(MOANS) No.
Your invention ends now.
SUZY: Reed! Reed! Did I fall asleep in the lab again? - Oh, I guess not.
- SUZY: Reed, I can't turn visible, Ben can't move.
Our powers It's just like you said.
Yeah, I'm okay, Sis.
Thanks for asking.
But seriously, Reed, ask this guy his name.
You were knocked out when he said it, but just wait, it's awesome.
You failed.
This is my universe.
You may have conquered your world, but this place is mine.
By right! And you cannot have it.
Oh, yeah.
We forgot to tell you, Stretch.
He's nuts.
You dare enter my realm? You attempt to steal my power.
Now, you pay the price.
We are not after your universe or trying to steal anything.
Why would you think (VILLAIN SQUEALS) I think that's crazy bug-speak for "shut your face.
" (WHISPERS) Hey, ask him his name.
What did you say your name was? (GROANS) - Annihilate.
- Sorry.
Anyways, we're calling him the Annihilator.
He's nuts, right? I have waged many wars to conquer this universe.
I will not stand by and let four mammals come and take it from me.
Look, there's obviously some kind of misunderstanding here.
We're not conquerors, we're explorers.
We REED: Oh, no.
Doom.
Congratulations, my ally, on your defeat of the Fantastic Four, the greatest evil my world has ever known.
What? We're the greatest evil? I thought you were Dr.
Doom, not Dr.
Dumb.
I warned the great Annihilus of your plans to invade and conquer his universe.
I simply could not let your evil spread.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
- You just wait, Doom.
- So predictable.
You may wonder how Annihilus knew.
JOHNNY: We're calling him the Annihilator.
Now, I get to name all our villains.
You may wonder how Annihilus knew the exact time and location of your incursion.
It was you.
You created the portal in New York.
DOOM: And like the fool you are, you sprung the trap.
Once delivered to the Negative Zone, Annihilus could end your threat forever.
After all, Annihilus is not without power.
Doom is lying.
He serves only himself.
He's the conqueror, not us.
Be silent! Or I will silence you.
Susan, you wound me You brought this upon yourself, Richards.
You dared to match your intellect against mine, and now you pay the price.
- Great Annihilus - It's the Annihilator, come on.
You have the gratitude of the planet Earth for ridding us of these despots.
I leave you now.
Perhaps one day we shall meet again.
ANNIHILUS: Perhaps.
I'm trying to come up with a new word for "bad," to really capture this moment, like "terribawful.
" - Johnny, can't you ever be serious? - Yes.
Wait.
No.
Sorry, I can't.
Reed, when did Doom become someone who asks for help? Never.
He must want something here in the Negative Zone.
He's using us as a distraction.
Well, ain't wiping us out enough for the guy? No.
No victory, no amount of power will ever be enough for Doom.
Power! That's what he's after, Annihilus' power.
We have to get out of here.
Stretch, I got a plan.
Let's beat the snot out of this guy and go home.
(ALARM BLARING) (SQUEALS) Ben, Johnny, hold off the soldiers.
Susan and I will talk to Annihilus.
We don't want to fight you.
You have to believe us.
Doom is using you.
He Okay, we tried.
Just listen! JOHNNY: Sorry, my bad! You want to get off of there? No? Okay.
(SQUEALS) Doom tricked you.
He wants something here in the Zone.
(REED GROANS) REED: We have to stop him.
BEN: And stay down! No! No! The Cosmic Control Rod.
It is gone.
Don't make me pluck these, tough guy.
- End it quickly.
- What? That's something Doom would do.
We will do nothing of the sort.
Doom lied to you.
He is the conqueror.
He stole your power source.
It wasn't the Zone affecting our powers, it must have been this Cosmic Control Rod.
We were absorbing its energy.
But that means Oh, no.
Reed, do you want to fill us in here? Unlike the Negative Zone, our entire reality could absorb the Rod's power, which would be devastating.
If Doom uses it on Earth, it could tear apart the entire universe.
Well, you got to hand it to Doom, he doesn't do anything halfway.
Luckily, I've been making inter-dimensional frequency upgrades to our communicators, so I should be able to contact Earth.
Yeah, I was wondering when you were gonna do that.
Human! I will aid you.
REED: HERBIE? HERBIE, come in.
HERBIE: Dr.
Richards! I miss you.
REED: HERBIE, I need you to power up the inter-dimensional viewer.
You have to open a portal.
- Dr.
Richards, there's someone outside.
- HERBIE, there's no time.
You have to (DOOM LAUGHING) DOOM: That was satisfying.
REED: I hate to disappoint you, Doom.
Well, actually No, I don't.
JOHNNY: Whoa! Not again.
We don't have much time.
We have to get the Control Rod back to the Negative Zone while we can still control our powers.
Beat up Doom.
Got it.
Flame Already on! Arrogant whelp.
Do you not know the power I wield? You calling me a whelp? - Hey, Reed, what's a whelp? - REED: Give me the Rod, Doom.
It's too dangerous to stay in our reality.
Look around you.
Look at what it's doing.
You think I cannot control this power? Let me show you.
Now you're gonna get to see the mighty fall.
None may touch Doom.
Touch.
(LAUGHING) Stop! Hey, you're tickling me.
(LAUGHING) Susan! Now! Betrayer! You will suffer for your treachery.
Richards, you fool.
You should not have brought this creature here.
JOHNNY: He's got a point, guys.
His name is Annihilate.
Like you're the poster boy for good decisions.
Victor, you have to listen.
It's going to rip our dimension apart.
You have to give it up.
Let us take it back to the Negative Zone.
You're wrong, Richards.
You may fear this power, but Doom does not.
I will control it.
No! This is terribawful.
I hate to say it, but I'm with the kid on this one.
- Susan? - I'm here, but I can't I can't control my force fields anymore.
I can't contain it, Reed.
- Reed, is this the - Not if I can help it.
Victor, let it go.
We have to get out.
The Control Rod is collapsing into the Negative Zone.
Doom will never surrender.
Yes! We're alive! Not too shabby, Stretch.
Well, it was really a simple matter of reversing the energy flow Don't ruin it.
(CHEERING) Thanks, Ben.
It didn't have to be that way.
Doom made his choice, Reed.
You tried.
Hey, not for nothing, but we did save the world.
JOHNNY: "We"? You couldn't even move at the end there.
We should be called the Fantastic Three and our Giant Pet Rock.
(BEN PUNCHES JOHNNY) What? He can fly.
(JOHNNY WHISTLES) You're about to get extra crispy, tubbo.
Well, I guess everything is back to normal.
Yup.
Doom! (SCREECHING)
