Iron Man: Armored Adventures (2008) s02e01 Episode Script

Faster.
Move it, morons.
The last thing we need is him finding us.
Easy, Unicorn.
Iron Man's been off the radar for weeks.
It's smooth sailing.
Look at the score.
This is still small-time, Shrike.
Count Nefaria's days are numbered.
I hear there's serious competition moving into town.
New blood.
All right.
We're finished here.
Let's get rolling, boys.
You see? In and out in two minutes, and not a single sign of It's Iron Man! That's not Iron Man! It's War Machine! Drop your weapons and, uh, put your hands in the air and, uh Wait, wait.
Tell them to get on the ground first.
First on their knees, then put their hands behind their heads.
That's real police procedure.
Uh, could you please hurry, mister? I'm in a rush to pick up one of my best friends, and he's rich, so he tips really well.
Okay, everyone on your knees and put your hands behind your heads.
But, uh, drop your weapons first.
Seriously, who is this guy? Iron Man's cousin.
Who cares? Cut him down! Bad move, fellas.
Uhh! Rhodey? Rhodey, are you there? I think I lost you.
I'll call you right back.
Tony! Uh Pepper! Pepper, hello! Oh, great.
Tony! You're finally back! Oh! You've been gone so long! I've missed you.
Everyone's been worried.
Hey, it's your birthday in two days.
Did you find your Dad or Gene or any of the rings? I'm happy to see you, too, Pepper, and, uh, no, I didn't find the rings or Gene or Dad.
But China's a big place, and I'm not done looking by a long shot.
How's Rhodey? Oh, he's doing super awesome.
He's busting Unicorn and Killer Shriek right now as we speak.
Getting up, eh? Guess I'll have to set my horn to full power! Unicorn! And you better stay down if you know what's good for you.
I don't know, Pepper.
I'm starting to wonder if everything Gene said was a lie.
He lied about being the Mandarin.
He lied about Dad being alive.
- No! Let me go! - Never! If you don't, you'll never see your father alive again.
You're lying! My father's gone! No, he isn't.
I took Howard because I needed information about the rings.
He played me for a fool, Pepper.
He lied, just so I'd let him go.
He stabbed us all in the back.
I'm going to drill my laser horn right through your spine, War machine! Warning temperature rising.
Danger level imminent.
Uhh Got to turn down the oven.
Firing shoulder rockets.
Ha ha! Who calls himself Unicorn anyway? Not scary, dude.
Yaah! Pepper, if you can hear me, I'm heading to the meeting place.
I'll see you and Tony soon.
For all the bad things Gene did, he saved all our lives at least once Me twice.
Pepper, he destroyed the plane that took my Dad's life.
He took everything away from me and gave me this.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I just Where do you think Gene is right now? Probably in some cushy penthouse in Hong Kong, living it up.
The translation was either wrong or intentionally concealed the truth.
There aren't five rings of power, but ten.
And whoever wields them gains mastery over creation itself.
You don't know that for sure, Gene.
Bringing all ten rings together could have dire consequences.
So you keep saying, Stark, But if you don't help me on this quest, you'll never see your son again.
I am the last of the Khans, the rightful bearer of the rings.
I am the Mandarin! And I am getting close.
Uh, why are we going to the Makluan temple again? It's a surprise, something I was working on before I left for China.
Don't worry.
Rhodey should be waiting for us.
This better be good, Tony.
This place freaks me out to no end.
Exactly.
No one comes here because they're too scared to.
It's totally abandoned, the perfect place.
- For what? - For this.
Wow! You you rebuilt the entire armory? In the Makluan temple? It's kind of weird, but I like it.
Uh, it's nearly identical, with a few modifications.
Better defenses.
No one's blowing up this place.
The computers are linked to nearly every spy satellite in the world.
If Gene's out there, we'll find him.
And you get, like, every cable channel in existence.
Whoa! Do you get breakdancing with celebrities? Oh, I love that show! Yeah, can we not use the multi-satellite linkup to watch incredibly lame tv, Pepper? Thank you.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! - Look.
It's Justin Hammer.
- Who's Justin Hammer? Only the cutest, richest Look at his private jet, Tony.
Oh-ho-ho! It's way more expensive than yours.
Uh, who cares? His company is also the biggest weapons manufacturer in the world.
They're evil with a capital EVIL.
Uh, why are the cute ones always bad? Shh.
Listen.
I want to hear him.
In the past year, Hammer multinational has eclipsed Stark international, becoming the leader in the field of electronics.
Why? Simple.
Because we're the best.
So.
This is who you want some overprivileged brat who inherited his father's fortune? The brat's a multi-billionaire, mr.
Fix.
I want him taken alive, and make sure people see you take him.
I want the city to know fear again.
Whatever you want, sir.
You've paid for all of my upgrades, and you even footed the bill for the recreation of my favorite assassin the new and improved Whiplash 3.
0.
Impressive.
But can you use it to bring down Iron Man? Iron Man is nothing to me.
Show our esteemed employer what he's purchased.
Electrostatic whip shields able to reflect point-blank propulsions.
New enhanced servos, making him stronger than our armored friend.
And finally flail bombs.
Powerful enough to detonate even the strongest armor.
Against cheap replicas, I want the real thing.
I can promise you this within 48 hours, both Justin Hammer and Iron Man will be in our possession, alive or in pieces.
Tony, it's been two days, and you haven't returned my 483 calls or my 917 text messages.
Oh, go easy on me, Pepper.
Brain hurts.
Working.
No sleep.
Yeah.
No deodorant, either.
Man, didn't you install a little something called a shower down here? And what's with the stubble? It looks like you're growing a goatee.
Eww.
Gross.
Facial hair so does not look good on you, Tony.
I really don't need this at 9:00 at night.
It's 2:30 in the afternoon.
Wow.
You really are out of it.
Working on that other secret project, huh? Just some other little surprise I've been cooking up.
Pepper, are are you watching TV again? Oh, look.
It's J.
H.
J.
H.
? Again? What, is there a Justin Hammer reality show now? And it's live news this time.
Tony, he's going into Stark international.
Uh-oh.
He's meeting with Obadiah.
That can't be good.
I see that look in your eye.
You're gonna armor up and spy on them, aren't you? He's definitely armoring up.
You guys know me a little too well.
Kind of scary.
Mr.
Stane, Justin Hammer is still waiting for you, sir.
Make him wait another ten minutes before sending him in.
It's not polite to keep people waiting, Obadiah, Especially not your future employer.
Don't bother getting comfortable, Hammer.
You're not staying.
Why do you have to be so pig-headed, Stane? In a year, Tony Stark will take over, and you'll be selling T-shirts in the lobby.
We'll see.
But if you think I'm gonna let some wet-behind-the-ears punk buy out the company it took me half a lifetime to acquire, you're out of your mind.
I worked to get what I own, unlike your questionable inheritance.
Good old Obadiah.
Too stubborn to sell out to a kid.
Just be glad he has such a huge ego.
Oh, look, Justin's leaving already.
Oh, no.
Whiplash.
Whiplash? I thought he was gone.
So did I.
Whoa! Easy does it.
Ahh.
I think he just deep fried my internal organs.
Iron Man.
You have no idea how ecstatic I am to see you.
Let's say I feel the same way.
Ahh! Justin Hammer.
Resistance would be fatal.
Electrical systems overloading.
I know.
I feel it.
Thanks.
Ah.
That had to have knocked him out.
You got to be kidding me.
Don't think this is over, Iron Man.
You should be safe here.
Are you okay? I am, thanks to you, Iron Man.
That was impressive.
Why don't you work for me as my bodyguard? Sorry.
I'm just not the bodyguard type.
Then why don't you sell me the armor outright? Every man has his price.
Not every Iron Man.
And then he kicked you, and then he whipped you again after he electrified you, and then he blew you up Thanks for the recap, coach.
It's not like I wasn't there.
My enemies are getting stronger.
I'm just gonna have to upgrade as well.
I got your back, too, man.
He won't stand a chance against both of us.
I don't know about that, Rhodey.
Yes! Tony's back! All right! Hey, Happy.
Well, hello, Whitney.
Hey, long time no see, little dude! Yes! I can finally get my grades up by cheating off you Uh, I mean, uh, studying with you again.
Ha! - Tony! - Hmm.
How did you get back into the academy? You've been gone so long, I thought they kicked you out for good.
Oh, you know, charm, good grades, and a little donation to rebuild the entire science lab didn't hurt.
Tony! The new miniature particle accelerator is phenomenal.
Uh, could you show me exactly how it works? Uh, sure.
No problem, professor.
Whiplash, you lost Justin Hammer and Iron Man.
Iron Man's a pathetic coward.
I promise you, the next time we meet, I will bring him to you in a box, both armor and pilot.
Fail me again, and I'll dismantle you for scrap.
Understand? Fix! Where is the armor? You'll have it before daybreak, sir.
I'd better.
And I have a new target for you as well.
Bring me Obadiah Stane.
Seriously, how hard can it be to spot a freak with whips and a flying saw blade? I'm not picking up anything, either.
Maybe we should just circle back to Hammer multinational.
Only if we can circle back through a drive-thru.
I'm starving.
Whoa.
Picking up something fast on the radar.
Zooming in.
Whiplash.
He's heading straight for Stark international.
He's heading straight for Stane.
Let him go, Whiplash! - I got him.
- No! Can't you just let Whiplash have him? I mean oh, he's such a huge pain and all.
Kidding.
But not really.
I know what you mean, Pepper, but Stane's still sort of a person.
I mean, kind of, right? Let me go, you freak.
Believe me, I'd love to drop you but alas hold on.
Rhodey! This guy's really starting to irritate me.
I'll hit him high.
You grab Stane low.
Gotcha.
Stay put, Stane.
Stay put? Where am I supposed to go? Okay, I'm going to take him down with the unibeam.
W-w-wait.
Doesn't that drain too much power? I don't think we have a choice.
Tony! Tony, are you alive? Forget it, Whiplash.
Daah! That can't be good.
Rhodey.
You okay? I feel like someone drop-kicked me off the moon.
Come on.
We can't lose them.
Pepper, do you see them on the grid? They're 2 miles southeast of you.
Have I told you how much fun this chair thing is? Whee! Ha ha ha! Let's go.
Aah! Not again! Whoa! Well, look what the stork dropped.
What a big baby you are.
I demand that you put me down right now, you metal moron.
And it talks, too.
Aren't you cute? I think I'll call you Hmm, "Pickles".
All right, Stane, hold on to your toupee, and, uh, don't look down.
Your destruction is nigh, Iron Man.
Last time we met, I never had a chance to use this.
Yaah! Warning armor integrity compromised.
Systems at 5% and falling.
Eject.
Eject armor.
Eject device not responding.
Eject override.
Eject! Now! Invasive bomb detonation in 3, 2, 1.
Eject! Tony! It's okay, bro.
You're going to be okay.
You're going to be fine.
This is Tony Stark.
He was in a car accident.
He needs help.
I, uh, I've never seen a heart monitor like this before.
He needs dr.
Yinsen.
That's the specialist who saved him before.
Please, can you help us? - Tony - What is it, old man? I just had a terrible feeling.
Something happened to my son.
Today's his his birthday.
Your son is far more resilient than you know, Stark.
Believe me, and believe this.
I must be the true Mandarin, for I've found another piece of my destiny.
Behold! The sixth Makluan temple.
It's his birthday today, you know? He's turning 17.
I was working on a little surprise party for him.
In one year, Tony gets Stark international.
It just makes me wonder was this an accident or deliberate? Can we get a doctor in here? Someone help! We need a doctor!
