Iron Man: Armored Adventures (2008) s02e03 Episode Script
Look Into the Light
2x03 - Look into the Light I'm a busy man, Mr.
Fix.
I have things I'd rather be doing.
Base jumping, swimming with sharks, chasing beautiful women.
You know, dangerous things.
Anything other than putting your sorry cybernetics back on schedule.
I'm working as fast as I can, Mr.
Hammer.
The tech is still untested.
No excuses, Fix.
After all, I have strong stake in your future here at Hammer Multinational.
No.
No, I-- Please.
It's finished.
Everything is in readiness.
Activating the energy cycle.
Light amplification at 87% and increasing.
It's working.
It's beautiful! It cost as much as my floating ocean fortress.
But what Justin Hammer wants, Justin Hammer gets.
A Living Laser.
He is a man on a mission In armor of high tech ammunition Trapped on the edge of an endless game His teenage life will never be the same In a dangerous world, he does all he can He's Iron Man Iron Man How's Tony? Is he feeling better? He's still banged up, but Dr.
Yingsing says he'll be okay as long as he doesn't strain his heart.
I'm gonna be fine.
Seriously, you two are worst than parents.
Hey, what are you doing here? You supposed to be taking it easy.
You used to bug me about not going to school.
Now, I'm going to school, and you're telling me to stay home.
Make up your minds already.
I'm not gonna sit around and do nothing while Gene Kahn is still out there.
You were almost killed, dude.
The least you can do is stay in bed and rest.
Rhodey's right, you're still hurt.
You look pale, sickly.
You're in no condition to go after Gene.
Thanks, Pepper.
Listen, as long as he's out there searching for the rings, I can't rest.
Athletes play hurt and so do I.
What the-- My locker is covered in-- What is this? Prank war, baby! Remember in computer class when you posted my baby pictures? That was like months ago.
And I never got you back.
So I'm declaring a prank war! Prank war till one of us surrenders! Happy, I'm seriously not in the mood for this.
Prank war, baby! Whoa! Yeah! You're going down.
It's chocolate syrup.
At least that better be chocolate syrup.
I'm gonna go and, um-- Wash my hands.
The Living Laser, I have big plans for you, my friend.
It's-- It's starting to come back.
Pieces.
I remember my name is Arthur Parks, the Living Laser.
I remember hatred for Iron Man.
But when I got sick, he was the only one who tried to help me.
So I helped him defeat AIM.
But then there was nothing, like sleep.
Just empty.
What happened to me? How did I get here? You were supposed to wipe his memory.
I want him a blank slate I can program.
A minor bug.
I'm correcting it now.
Curious.
I'm getting feedback.
It's me? What have you done to me? Please, help me.
I don't understand what's happening.
Fix, do something! No! Leave me alone! I don't know what's going on, but there's one person that will help me.
I have to find-- Tony Stark.
No sign of Tony.
Maybe Tony got taken back to the hospital.
Or worse, maybe he got detention! Will you calm down? Let me call him.
Tony, where exactly are you? Exactly, about 700 feet in the air.
Huh? I went to the armory straight after 6th period.
Taking the Mark II out for a spin.
Testing the armor? We could have done that stuff for you.
I can handle this myself.
Besides-- Signal dropped.
There's crazy interference in the air disrupting communication signals.
And it's moving? If these readings are right, it's flying above the city at the speed of light.
Arthur Parks? Tony Stark.
I thought you-- You disintegrated.
It's great you're back-- Whoa! Laser! I-- I thought we were friends! You thought wrong! Just like Gene.
You're just another lying, using, backstabber.
Aw, you're breaking my heart.
Oh, man.
I won't lie, that one stung a little.
Alert.
Strain to user's heart detected.
Recommend one hour recharge time.
Great, first Rhodey and Pepper, now my system's on their side.
Computer, run batch script for previous Living Laser protocols.
Script in progress.
None of the old tactics are working.
It's like the Living Laser is different.
Transformed.
Okay, that's new.
Activate sonic cannons.
He's not answering our calls.
I'm gonna suit up and look for him.
I know where he is.
Now, this time you hide, and I'll seek.
I got ambushed by the Living Laser.
The Living Laser is back? I thought you said he changed his ways.
I was wrong.
I was wrong about Gene, and I was wrong about the Living Laser.
Everything is just wrong.
That's the intruder alarm.
Somebody's inside the armory.
- Back to finish me off? - What? Tony, no.
I tracked your energy signature.
I need your help.
I don't know what's going on.
I woke up and there was another me.
I was inside some strange place and there were two men I didn't recognize.
And I know it sounds crazy, but I think I've been split in two.
What? Two Arthur Parks? Tell me, does the evil one have any distinguishing characteristics? A really evil looking goatee? You have to help me figure out what happened to me.
Please, you helped me before.
I don't know what your game is, Arthur, but I'm not falling for it.
I'm not gonna be played for a sucker again.
I-- I'm just sorry for bothering you, Tony.
You're going to turn your back on him? Are you kidding, Pepper? he nearly killed me.
Now I'm supposed to help? Right.
If the Laser wanted to, he could've taken you down just now.
You used to help anybody who needed it.
Ask Gene, maybe he'll help.
Oh, wait, no he won't.
He's evil.
Tracking two Living Laser signatures.
They're in the city.
Moving just below the speed of light.
I don't want them tracked.
I want them captured.
I want them mass produced as a weapon.
Why am I still waiting for this to happen? One last thing.
After you capture them, put a complete energy reading on that data card.
We need it for project Titanium.
I can't get an exact lock on the Living Lasers from here.
I'm going to need to move the energy siphon to a better location.
Don't bore me with the details.
Just make it happen.
You're not Iron Man.
That's right.
I'm War Machine.
- And I'm here to help.
- No one can help me.
Why don't you tell me everything.
I woke up in some lab here in the city.
I don't know how I got there.
I was out of my skull.
Then I got split in two.
- Who did this to you? - I don't know.
My memory ain't so good.
Something's wrong with my head.
Whoa! What was that? Ever since I came to, I've been having these attacks.
I'm not a doctor, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you need help now.
Hi, this is Dominic's Pizza.
Sorry, but we have to call to confirm orders this big.
20 pizzas with extra anchovies.
Cancel the order.
I didn't place it.
Seriously, who eats anchovies? Hello, Tony Stark.
You applied for a position teaching fire juggling to senior citizens.
How soon can you start? Oh, I don't know, how about never? Oh, hi, I'm calling about the free puppies.
For the last time, there are no free puppies! Prank war! Happy, if you don't stop pranking me, I'm gonna post your baby pics on every computer home page in the country.
Prank war, baby! Yeah-- I shouldn't have showed him I'm ticked.
It only encourages him.
The old Tony would've just pranked Happy back.
You are so overreacting to his dumb pranks.
Like how you overreacted to the Living Laser.
I'm not overreacting.
If I help the Laser, it's gonna come back and bit me big time.
Like Gene? Like Gene or Blizzard or the Laser the first time.
Do I have loser stamped on my forehead? Well, if it's there, it's really light and I can't see it.
No, seriously, you can't let Gene mess up all your trust.
Especially, when others need you.
The energy attacks are getting more powerful.
Take it easy, okay? Stay here.
I'm gonna go check it out.
Tony Stark.
Oh, man.
I think I found the other half.
Going somewhere? Too many cars and by-standers.
But not up here.
Leave him alone.
Who-- Who are you? Isn't it obvious? I'm the original.
You are the imposter.
When I'm through there will be only one Laser left.
Me! Tony, come in.
Are you seeing this? Two Living Lasers? Arthur Parks was telling the truth, and I wouldn't help him.
- I'm such a-- - Lamazoid? Mm, lamazoid is a good word.
Hello? We don't have time for the moppy, depressed Tony.
We kind of need the fast thinking, super genius Tony right now.
I'm sending you energy data that I'm scanning off the Laser.
I got it.
Let me do a quick analysis.
Better do it quick, like yesterday.
Rhodey, this energy data is off the charts.
His body was already unstable.
Now, he's made of decaying positively and negatively charged energy.
Is this the long version or the extra long version? Meaning, if we don't put the Laser back together, the halves will explode.
It'll charge all the particles in the vicinity and vaporize the city.
Oh, yeah.
We should probably do something about that.
Wait a minute.
I have a prototype of my Dad's teleportation harness.
The thing that made the Living Laser in the first place? What are you gonna do with it? I have an idea that just might work, or it might destroy a small part of Manhattan.
You're still hurt.
You sure you're up for this? If I don't help, they city is gonna fry.
And that's probably gonna hurt a tiny bit worse.
What's the plan? We hook this up to the two Living Lasers, then flip a switch, then cross our fingers.
- If it doesn't work? - Then we go to plan B.
- What's plan B? - We're in incinerated.
Did they explode? If the Living Lasers had blown up, we wouldn't be alive to be talking about it.
They're still around here somewhere.
Tony, you're not gonna believe this.
The mail delivered 20 teen fashion magazines to your house.
I think Happy pranked you again.
Pepper, I need you to-- "How to tell if your best friend is dating a supervillain.
" Oh, sweet! Can I borrow this one? Pepper, focus.
The Living Laser has a unique energy signature.
I need you to plug the new Mark II armor into global satellite tracking.
Um, right.
Got it! You're plugged in.
All right, now, we're getting somewhere.
This way.
When I get out of here, I'm gonna fry you from the inside out.
- What do you want with me? - Readings on your energy levels, they'll help me out on a little project I'm working on.
Shut you cyborg mouth, Fix.
Don't reveal anything about project Titanium.
What does it matter? I'm wiping their memories clean.
In a few moments, they'll be a literal tabula rasa.
Tony, the energy levels coming out of the two Living Lasers are reaching critical mass! I noticed.
Do me a favor.
If I don't make it out of this alive, Say goodbye to Whitney for me.
Hmph.
I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that.
Fix.
Fix! What's going on out there? I don't know if you can still hear me, Hammer, but the whole setup is gonna blow.
Can't forget about project Titanium.
Hold on, Arthur! We're gonna get you out of there.
My ticket out of here.
What's better than destroying one Iron Man? Destroying two.
Get him loose, I'll keep this one busy.
Don't look at the light.
Am I glad to see you.
We don't have much time.
Once I get this harness on your other half, you need to energize it.
Want to know why they call me War Machine? I'll give you a hint.
Try and push him towards me.
No.
I don't think so.
Back off! What are you talking about? We can't back off now.
I have a plan, but you need to trust me.
Okay, do it.
Whatever happens, don't get involved till I tell you.
Stop.
You have to stop this.
You're standing with Iron Man? Then I'll take you down, too.
I'll destroy you and Iron Man.
I'll destroy everybody and everything till there's nothing left but me! Keep talking.
The more you talk, the closer we get to-- Now, while he's down.
Arthur! Activate the harness! Pepper, you there? Of course I'm here.
Where would I go? I've been hanging on the edge of my seat.
Any sign of the Living Lasers? There gone? Energy levels are safe again.
But what happened to the Laser? I'm whole again.
Wow, thank you, Tony for trusting me.
Fix, you fool! You lost me a weapon AIM and Hydra would have paid billions for.
I warned you from the start the procedure was dangerous, sir.
Well, at least one good thing came out of it.
Project Titanium is a go.
Got a text from Arthur Parks.
Says he's gonna lay low for a little while and just enjoy being alive.
Who knows, maybe Parks will turn out to be a good guy after all.
Or maybe he'll turn out to betray me or maybe he won't.
I'm willing to take the chance.
Somebody help! You thought you could get away? Nobody gets away from the Magia.
When we're through with you, you're gonna wish you never double-crossed us, see? No.
No, it's just all a big mistake.
Prank war.
Thanks, guys.
No sweat, Tony.
That was fun.
I-- I surrender.
Prank wars' over.
Uh, can somebody unlock the handcuffs? Anybody? synced by f1nc0
