Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008) s02e14 Episode Script
The Siege of Starro! (2)
The brave and the bold" I have already subdued most of your allies.
Soon, there will be no heroes left to defend earth, And Starro shall conquer it with ease.
Your planet will fall, For the Starro invasion has begun.
Starro lives This is all that's left to fight the greatest threat to humanity ever? ViXen? Honey? It's me, B'wanie.
Your fiancé? Starro came to feed on my world.
A bargain was struck, And I agreed to be his herald, Tracking down other worlds On which the conqueror could feed.
Shazam! It's over, hunter.
I have a new weapon to spread death and destruction On a scale my late master never dreamed of.
What is this weapon? You.
B'wana beast! TWO YEARS AGO Why is it that, for so many heroes, A lifetime battling injustice was born from some tragic loss? Perhaps because for most, The natural reaction to loss Is to wallow in one's pain, To let it eat you up.
But not for those destined for heroic greatness.
Instead, tragedy becomes an opportunity to stand up, Take stock, and discover What they're really made of.
For them, it can be transformative, energizing.
And with growth comes wisdom.
So the hero can bounce back stronger than before.
A champion uncaged, Never again to be a prisoner of his demons.
I wish to free the real you, b'wana beast, To unleash the awesome power Imprisoned within this pitiful Shell.
All you need is a little encouragement.
Plastic man, check.
Huntress, check.
Green arrow, check.
All present and accounted for That is, except for aquaman.
Good work, Captain.
Hey.
We're making good progress With the general population, sir.
Aquaman isn't the only one who's missing.
But rescuing b'wana has to wait Until everything's secure down here.
You don't need to do this.
You're free of starro.
He can't hurt your world anymore.
Is that why you think I worked for him? No.
My bargain with starro wasn't to save my people.
Klaramar was a peace-loving planet, And as a hunter, I was an outcast.
My bargain was for starro to destroy my world.
And now, the hunt continues As I transform you from a sad joke Into the most feared force in this universe.
This will channel your power So that it might be used for more than creating childish amusements.
You want to make me a weapon? Not going to happen.
Bring out the beast! There you are, aquaman.
Got a live one, people.
I shall smash in your starless face.
The sieve of starro isn't over! From a single healthy spore, Starro will rise again to feed on your world! And this time, There will be no stopping You're unworthy of your gift.
Relinquish it to me and end this torment.
Now, the ultimate hunt begins.
Where the planets themselves shall be my prey.
How are you feeling, chum? A bit drained, but never better.
Then let's get to work.
B'wana's waited long enough.
Holy moley.
! Any idea how those dead spores managed to merge Into the world's scariest parade float? It's what faceless hunter meant about b'wana beast being a weapon.
No worries.
I've got this one.
Shazam! It's turning towers into giant tuning forks? Great.
If he sets off enough of these tuning forks, He could create a vibrational wave Strong enough to decimate the city.
Soon, b'wana beast, You will bear witness as earth's shattered crust Becomes the shining jewel of my trophy collection.
No.
I won't let you destroy earth.
Have at thee, monster! Listen, everyone.
This creature has enhanced power-draining abilities.
I've calculated that 3 of these tuning forks vibrating sympathetically Will destroy the eastern seaboard.
Firestorm, your overfeeding trick worked before.
It's sucking everyone dry! What do we do? Booster, you're needed.
Are you sure they're here? Positive, sir.
This is the lab of Professor William Milton Magnus, Creator of the only beings that the spore creature Can't siphon energy from The metal men.
Doc Magnus? We need the help of your metal men.
And they wanted to help, too, Until I reprogrammed their minds to only serve starro.
Iron, gold, lead, Platinum, mercury Scrap these intruders.
Skeet! They're your people.
Talk to them! I'll give it my best shot, sir.
I'm back! And I've brought friends.
Metal men, attack! Mission accomplished.
The metal men will slow him down, But the only sure way to stop him is to find b'wana beast.
Earth will be but the first to fall As I carve my path of destruction.
Batman might have something to say about that.
Batman! Resistance, you see, is futile.
Did you truly think you could board my vessel undetected? This is not looking good, skeets.
Don't worry.
The metal men have one more trick left up their sleeve.
Meet alloy, The ultimate metal man.
Hold it, starzilla.
You were a worthy foe, Batman.
Your head shall occupy the place of honor In my hall of vanquished heroes.
There's no point in continuing this struggle.
B'wana beast works for me.
Earth's fate is sealed.
I warned you I could counter any weapon you possess.
Right.
Good thing I borrowed one of yours.
B'wana, can you control that creature? If you can get me closer to that monster.
Can't give up.
Too many depending on me.
You're tearing yourself apart.
That's the plan.
B'wana! Batman Tell ViXen I love her.
Wow! I knew you'd do it.
You kicked its butt.
I shall call this adventure "the time the c-list heroes barely helped save the day.
" So, being a hero isn't all it's cracked up to be.
But you know what? I'd do it all over again.
In a hummingbird's heartbeat.
Soon, there will be no heroes left to defend earth, And Starro shall conquer it with ease.
