DC's Legends Of Tomorrow (2016) s03e04 Episode Script
Phone Home
1 How will we be remembered? Will it be for saving the world twice? No, we're the team who broke time.
That's right, history has been torn to shreds, which means it's up to us to put it back together again piece by piece, fixing these so-called anachronisms before we get torn to shreds.
So please, don't call us heroes.
We're legends.
Zari Tomaz? Previously on "Legends of Tomorrow" Come with us if you want to live.
That's enough, Zari.
You're not going anywhere without us.
[WHOOSHING.]
My brother had powers because he wielded this.
He fought against A.
R.
G.
U.
S.
' injustices, so he was hunted.
- We all were.
- Come with us.
What would you rather do, hide from A.
R.
G.
U.
S.
your whole life or time travel? - Whoa, Lily.
- I'm pregnant.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Hello? - [CREATURE GROWLING.]
What's your name? - [CREATURE SNARLS.]
- Mine's Ray Palmer.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
52-19.
I repeat, we have a 52-19.
Subject on the move.
Lock down all exits.
Code Red.
Engaging lockdown protocols.
He went this way.
- [DOOR CLOSING.]
- Got him.
He's headed for the lab.
Can't let you go in there, Raymond.
[GUN COCKS.]
You're not gonna hurt me.
I'm I'm just a kid.
And if you want to make it to adulthood, you'll start seeing the reality of the situation.
So why don't you calm down and we'll have ourselves a nice chat? There you go.
Now come with us.
[GUNSHOT.]
What makes a hero? Is it powers? Strength? Bravery? No.
A hero is forged by his or her relationships.
Our bonds of brotherhood or sisterhood.
That is why I'm taking you all through the ten-step team-building process I perfected at Palmer Tech.
Step one, part one: icebreakers.
Dude, we've been stuck on a ship that has one bathroom.
I think we know each other well enough.
And your timing couldn't be worse, given that we're being chased by a water-wielding assassin and the Time Bureau.
We need to grow as a team.
First step is two truths and a lie.
It's gonna be fun.
Lie.
I haven't started yet.
Look I know you guys probably think - this is lame - Truth.
But we have a new crew member, and it is important for Zari to bond with us, not only as team members but as individuals.
Yeah, well, I'm no hero, and I'm not a member of any team.
Besides, I've already have you all figured out.
The old guy wants to be anywhere but on this ship.
These two have some will-they-won't-they thing going on.
Rory's been drunk since breakfast.
Jax is wondering if I'm single.
And your ship's still mad at me for doing a teeny hack on her subsystems.
Now, what's this about one bathroom? [ALL TALKING AT ONCE.]
Oy vey.
Guys, guys.
You're right, Haircut, this is gonna be fun.
Let's just skip to step two: trust falls.
Now, to demonstrate, Mick, who hated me when we first met, will fall trustingly into my arms.
All right, you promised me good coin for doing this.
And you said you weren't gonna say that out loud.
[GROANS.]
Well, just lean back and let go 'cause I'm not going anywhere, buddy.
What the hell? Gideon, what happened to Ray? According to public record, Mr.
Palmer died in 1988.
Wait, Ray's dead? He better be.
How could Ray be dead? He was just right here.
Yeah, well, he owes me money.
Gideon, you said Ray died in 1988.
Mr.
Palmer went missing on October 31, 1988.
They recovered the body two days later.
He was found in the woods, dead, only eight years old.
If Ray disappeared on Halloween, then we'll just go back to before whatever happens happens.
Gideon, get us to October 30, 1988.
Wait.
Are we time traveling? You better buckle up.
[SHIP WHOOSHING.]
Arriving in 1988.
[SPEAKING FRENCH.]
I should have said there are some really strange side effects.
Buddy! Hey, you're alive.
Aw, man.
Oh, wow.
I love you, man.
Me too.
And always ready for a bro-hug.
I'm in the paper.
And I'm dead? Not yet.
We're in 1988, the day before you disappeared.
Okay.
Well, I guess the fact that I'm still here means temporal permanence hasn't set in.
Which means we can still save my life And enjoy 1988 while we're at it.
[LAUGHS.]
Trust Ray to find the bright side of dying.
Uh, are you sure this is right? That sweater's totally awesome.
How do I look? Honestly? Like you're being strangled by a Muppet.
Can't believe people used to wear this stuff.
Hey, speak for yourself.
I look good in any era.
[SIGHS.]
I can't wait to show you guys my home.
First we have to go to Pizza Master, best slice in town.
Then we have to go to Video Village.
I can't tell you how much of my allowance I spent there.
So you're always this positive, even when you're dead? How can you pretend like everything's okay? I'm not pretending.
I believe it.
I found that if I can trust in myself, I can believe everything's okay, and it usually is.
It's called positive thinking.
Give it a shot.
Is he for real? School's almost out.
You ready, kids? Yeah, let's motor.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS.]
Mm, this is amazing! Blue skies, smiling kids, an actual white picket fence.
Well, I think it's actually a trellis, but yeah, same thing.
Oh.
Wow, there I am.
Thanks for the pop quiz, Mrs.
Garvin.
It really reinforced some fundamentals.
- Yeah, that's definitely you.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Okay, now, whoever's targeting me could be anywhere, so keep a lookout for anything unusual.
Guys, here I come.
I mean little me He's coming at you.
Catch up with me on Main Street, and, um keep me alive.
Got eyes on Ray to make a move.
Well, it looks like you're taking a detour.
Did you frequent the Ivy Town Newsstand as a boy? Yeah, I must be picking up the new issue of "Scientific American.
" I was more of a "National Geographic" boy myself.
Once a geek, always a geek.
Well, whoever's after me could be there, so Yeah, we'll stick on him.
[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC.]
Okay, I got somebody checking out magazines and one shopkeeper.
I could knock this place off with a water pistol.
Okay, new mission: keep me away from Mick.
I don't want today to be the day I descend into a life of crime.
Well, Haircut looks like it's too late.
Wait, what does that mean? You're by the candy bars.
Well, get me away from there.
That stuff's poison.
- Yeah, that's not all.
- Wait, what does that mean? - You're shoplifting.
- Wait.
- What? - Damn, Haircut.
You had balls.
I've never stolen a thing in my life.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, you have now.
I'm proud of you.
- Little you's on the move.
- Well, stop him.
Me.
Stop both of us.
I'm no rat.
Ready at the home front.
See, now this? This is a time machine.
I got eyes on little Ray.
- We got hostile incoming.
- What is it? Assassin? Time Bureau? [SIGHS.]
Almost as bad.
Bullies.
Hey, Palmer, let's play.
No, it's just Gus and Ty.
We were friends.
Very funny, guys.
Do you want me to rough them up? Nah, nah, nah, it's, uh They were just kidding.
Give that back.
Come on.
- Give that back! - Here.
Beginning to think maybe they weren't kidding.
This is boring.
Let's go, Ty.
I can't believe he actually thinks we're friends.
Bye, guys! I guess kids are mean in any time period.
['80S ROCK SONG PLAYING ON CAR STEREO.]
'Cause love is blind We circled the neighborhood, checked the yard.
It seems normal.
Scary normal.
Maybe young Ray died of boredom.
No, something's up.
Something's wrong.
Look, maybe it was the candy.
Maybe I overdosed on high-fructose corn syrup and food coloring.
Or maybe your killer aborted when we showed up.
Let's get back to the ship and check the historical record.
[SIGHS.]
Give me a minute.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
Dinnertime.
Got you gummy bears, licorice, Nougat Nummies.
Wait till we go trick-or-treating tomorrow.
There's a whole lot more where that came from.
Huh.
I'm talking to someone in my room.
[SNARLING.]
[WRAPPER CRINKLING.]
[BURPS.]
Knew you were hungry.
Coast is clear, Gumball.
You can come on out.
[WHIMPERING SOFTLY.]
[CHATTERING SOFTLY.]
Guys.
I think I know what kills me.
It's a Dominator.
So aliens are real.
Yep, and those ones are called Dominators.
They're nasty too.
Capable of telepathy, advanced technology, and, the fun one, tearing people limb from limb.
- Great.
- The last time we faced them, they almost wiped out meta-humans and made us fight each other.
And worse, fight together.
And now little me kidnapped one and is treating it like a house pet, which would be cool if it wasn't deadly.
Maybe the baby Dominator hasn't developed all of its abilities yet.
The infant of the species has the strength of the adult with none of its discretion.
It can also mind-control subjects at will.
How can you not remember befriending an alien? Because I didn't.
It never happened to me.
The Dominator is an anachronism.
- It's time-displaced.
- Right.
So we have to get the baby Dominator out of Ray's bedroom and back to where it belongs.
And how are we supposed to do that? Uh, well, it should be easy.
All we have to do is sneak into my house tomorrow when my mom's at work and I'm at school and kidnap the Dominator.
I even know where the spare key is.
Like stealing candy from a baby.
But not as fun.
Yo.
Where were you, man? - You missed the team meeting.
- Oh, you finished already? I was just on my way, but I can ask Gideon to debrief me.
Uh, psychic connection, so I know you're hiding something.
I have no idea what you're referring to.
Zari was right.
You don't actually want to be on the Waverider, do you? Don't be ridiculous.
I am as committed to this mission as I've ever been.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
What's going on? Grey's keeping some sort of secret.
You want to know what's going on? Well, do you know what's going on with him? I have my suspicions, yeah, and I have my ways of extracting information.
[SIGHS.]
Home, sweet home.
[EERIE MUSIC.]
- Wait.
- What? What is it? No shoes on the carpet.
[CHUCKLES.]
I guess I can probably let go of that now.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Oh, man, never thought I'd be here again.
[CHUCKLES.]
My brother Sydney and I used to fight over this thing.
He always wanted to play "Tecmo Bowl," and all I wanted to do was play "Legend of Zelda.
" Yeah, the only video games we had were military training simulations, but yeah, that sounds hard for you.
Our record player.
- Hey, who's Billy "Jo-el"? - What? "Piano Man"? "River of Dreams"? Really? Wow.
You really did live in a dystopia.
No time to waltz down memory lane, Ray.
Find the Dominator and get out of there before anyone sees you all grown up.
Dude, I didn't know you were a Billy Joel fan.
What's your favorite album? Everyone says "The Stranger," but for my money, "Nylon Curtain," his Beatles tribute album, is super ambitious.
Let us know when you're heading out.
We're ready for retrieval.
Whoa.
I never thought I'd be back in my room.
Guys, we're in my room.
[CHATTERING.]
It's in the closet.
Okay, no sudden movements.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[SUIT POWERING UP.]
Ew, leave it to young you to see the best in that thing.
Though you were pretty lonely.
What? I wasn't lonely.
I was just choosing to focus on my studies.
This is probably just my scientific curiosity getting the better of me - Great.
- Again.
- [MICROWAVE BEEPS.]
- Popcorn's ready.
Aren't you supposed to be in school? - Oh, my God.
- Yeah, this is a problem.
No.
Yesterday I'm shoplifting.
Today I'm truant.
This thing is turning me into Rory.
Young you is on the way.
[YELLS.]
Hey, no, get off me! No, no, no, no, no, I am not a toy! Stop that.
Toys are our friends.
[SOFT MUSIC.]
I don't remember you.
Hmm.
Come on, this is my favorite.
It's 1:30 already.
It's morning.
Yes.
And what a lovely morning.
Good morning Good morning We've talked the whole night through - Good morning - Is that music? Yeah, "Singin' in the Rain," only the best musical ever.
Not as good as "Fiddler on the Roof.
" It's great to stay up late I love that show.
Good morning to you What? We got a new problem.
Do you anyone who owns a green station wagon with fake wood paneling? What's my mom doing home? [SIGHS.]
Dude, you never mentioned your mom was hot.
Why would I ever mention that? To you and you and you and you Good morning, good morning We've gabbed the whole night through Good morning, good morning to you Nothing could be grander than to be in Louisiana In the morning Raymond Palmer! You have to hide.
Where are you, Raymond? [EERIE MUSIC.]
[DOOR OPENS.]
Why did I get a call saying that you didn't show up to school today? - Mom.
- I'm sorry, Mom.
I was sick.
Si sick.
No kidding, of course you were sick.
Sick from eating all this candy.
You can forget about trick-or-treating tonight.
Guys, the Dominator's getting angry.
Somebody needs to distract my mom.
Fine, I'll take one for the team.
Raymond, this is the second time this month that I've had to leave work for you.
First you're starting a fire in the science lab, and then, what, now you're sitting at home - skipping school? - School is boring.
I already know all the answers.
Too bad, you're going back, so grab your stuff.
Let's go.
Come on.
[SNARLS.]
What was that? Yeah, now would be great, guys.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
[DOORBELL RINGS.]
[SIGHS.]
What now? Is there a cougar on the premises? Excuse me? Animal control.
One of the neighbors said that they heard some strange noises coming from your home.
So that's what he's been up to.
Yeah, we just got done wrestling a bear and saving, like, a busload of kids.
- They were super cute.
- We just need to come in and take a look around.
Uh, sure, come on in.
- Whatever you need.
- Thanks.
Whatever.
It's my son.
He's always sneaking off into the woods and bringing back strays.
Don't worry, we have seen it all.
[SIGHS.]
Yeah.
I just Ray would make normal friends, you know? I mean, he would rather spend his time with his animals and movies or his weird inventions.
Sometimes I worry that he just gets lost in his own head.
[EMOTIONAL MUSIC.]
Hey, I hope kid you didn't hear all that.
She always said she liked my inventions.
- Captain Lance.
- What's up? I am detecting the approach of another timeship.
What if the assassin followed us here? We need to plead for clemency with the Time Bureau and ask for help.
Whosever here could be tracking us.
Stay off the comms.
I'm gonna check it out.
You keep watch here.
I'll be watching very, very closely.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
They know about you.
We need to go.
No one cares about me anyway.
[CHATTERING SOFTLY.]
Oh, you need a friend.
Uh-oh.
Whoa, oh, no.
Come on.
Oh, no, I've got a playdate.
[TENSE CHORAL MUSIC.]
Zari, stay with me.
I don't want to spook the Dominator or traumatize my younger self.
I should have stayed in 2042.
Ray, hold on.
How do you know my name? It's a long, mostly irritating story.
The only thing that matters is, I'm here to save your life.
No, you want Gumball.
Well, you can't have him.
[MEWLING.]
And I thought grown-up Ray was annoying.
Listen to me, kid.
You don't want to be alone with that thing.
You don't know him.
We're friends.
Your friend is gonna kill you.
If I don't do it first.
What's going on? This about Grey? You said the professor's been acting all squirrelly about where he's been.
- Squirrelly? - Yeah.
When you're on the run, someone usually cracks.
Burns to crew to save themselves.
Burns the crew how? Cutting a deal with the Time Bureau.
You think Grey is ratting us out to the Time Bureau? The old man wants off the boat, thinks we're in too de.
Yeah, but he wouldn't do that.
Really? Then who's been boosting the jumpship while we sleep? - Gideon.
- I believe Mr.
Rory is alluding to the fact that someone has erased the jumpship's travel log.
Someone's been sneaking off the ship and snitching to the Time Bureau.
And if there's one thing I hate more than pigs it's a rat.
How far could he have gone? He's just a little kid.
Well, maybe if you hadn't stayed to flirt with Ray's mother.
First of all, I didn't flirt with Ray's mother.
I merely charmed her.
I can't help that I'm charming.
Wait, wait, wait, are you jealous? [SIGHS.]
Nathaniel, I just think we should keep it simple.
Friends.
Like we were before all of this happened.
I mean, that was still fun, right? Right, right, if we just had a timeship, we could go back to where we never even lived together.
- Nate, don't.
- With a Swedish bed we never quite assembled.
I believe it was called a Double Dorff.
- Just erased it and - Shh, Nate.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
I'm getting something this way.
The mobile team is setting up a lab now.
We need to find the Dominator before it finds us.
What about the kid? He comes with us.
We can't have this getting out.
[SIGHS.]
Looks like a false alarm.
No sign of the Time Bureau here.
[SQUEAKING NOISE.]
[GROWLING.]
Gideon says the professor's been spending a lot of time down here.
Whoa.
The last time I was down here, this place was just a storage room.
Looks like the professor's been busy behind our backs.
So what? He's a professor, man.
That's what professors do.
They invent stuff.
- Stuff like - Like what? Like this.
Best bet is, this is some sort of radio transmitter that communicates through time.
With the Time Bureau? I can't believe it.
Grey really is a traitor.
Kid, I know you're in there.
Oh, good, you found us.
You shall not pass.
[SIGHS.]
There's no time for make-believe.
You are in actual danger.
Step down, you knave.
Zari, think like a kid.
- [CLEARS THROAT.]
- You just have to play along.
I'm I'm here from a neighboring kingdom to speak to Sir Galahad.
And? - Sir Gumball.
- And Sir Gumball.
Yeah, good, that's good.
Keep going.
It's an honor, my lieges.
[CHATTERING HAPPILY.]
Got it.
I repeat, - subject has been located.
- You lied to me.
- No, I didn't.
- There he is! Get him! - Hey, let him go.
- You're coming with us.
Leave me alone! Leave us alone.
No! [WHIMPERING.]
Careful.
The Dominator's sedation is wearing off.
Don't worry, this little fella's not going anywhere.
Doesn't need to go anywhere.
Using its telepathic powers, even a juvenile could control us at its will, force us to set it free or do each other in.
I've seen it before.
This will suppress its neural impulses, neutralizing its powers.
[GROWLING.]
As well as preventing it from communicating with its mother, the queen.
We have the girl in a storage room, and the boy's in questioning now.
Get him to tell us everything he knows: where he found the creature and how long he's had it.
- Then what do we do with him? - Make it so he can't tell anybody else.
- You mean - Mm-hmm.
This queen, if the baby can control our minds, what is she capable of doing? Mental projection, supplanting thoughts and sensations into its victim's mind.
Also known to protect their young at any cost.
[OMINO MUSIC.]
You know what I'm looking for.
A breath mint? Dermatologist recommendation? Reese's Pieces? - [SNARLS.]
- Oh, right, your kid.
You're looking for your kid.
And if you let me go, I'll help you.
Your species cannot be trusted.
Look, I want to help you.
I do.
You can't find him without me.
Agreed.
Going somewhere, Professor? I don't have time to explain.
I'm taking the jumpship whether you like it or not.
Yo, aw, Mick, come on, man.
I just souped this baby up.
Jefferson, please, I need you to help me get out of 1988.
Help you? After you've been lying to me? You've been sneaking out on us.
You erased the jump logs.
You're working with the Time Bureau.
What? Never.
What's in your back pocket, Professor? [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
It's a trans-temporal communicator.
Mm, so you can talk to your little Time Bureau friends.
- No.
So I can talk to my - [DEVICE BEEPS.]
Hey, Dad.
My daughter.
Oh, and all of you guys.
- Hey, Lily.
- Dad? I think it's time.
We're heading to the hospital now, and you're gonna be here, right? How could I miss the birth of my first grandchild? Good 'cause [EXHALES.]
This baby's coming.
Okay, I will see you there.
Bye, Dad.
I took the jumpship back to 2017 so I could give Lily the other communicator.
And you wiped the jump logs why? Because I wanted you to know that I was committed to you and to the team.
I made the decision to stay and I needed you to know that I meant it.
Clearly, my subterfuge has robbed me of the chance to be at the birth of my grandchild.
No.
We can take the Waverider.
What about the rest of the team? I'm sure they'll manage.
You're serious? Grey, it's your first grandkid.
Why would you think I'd want you to miss that? Come on, man, let's go.
[SOMBER MUSIC.]
What's going on? Where's kid Ray? They're interrogating me.
Him.
Code Red.
Engaging lockdown protocols.
- Let's go.
- [ALARM BLARING.]
So why don't you calm down and we'll have ourselves a nice little chat? [GUN COCKS.]
There you go.
Come with us.
- [BLASTERS FIRE.]
- [MEN GRUNT.]
You're real.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
- [GUNSHOTS.]
- Go, go, go! [MEN GROANING.]
We got to move.
They won't stay down long.
We can't leave without Gumball.
Look, that thing is not your friend.
It may be cute and cuddly now, but sooner or later, it's gonna turn on you.
Gumball wouldn't do that.
We can save him, I know it.
Look, Raymond.
I get that you're lonely and that you're just trying to cope.
But, buddy, you can't live in a fantasy world forever.
- Ray.
- Look, trust me.
I understand that it hurts to learn that the world isn't as perfect as you want it to be.
But sooner or later you have to start facing reality.
Otherwise you're gonna end up getting yourself killed.
Hey.
Listen to us.
We're gonna save your friend and make it out of here together.
All right? Because that's what brave knights do.
Right, Sir Galahad? Let's do it.
[GROANING.]
- Where are you guys? - Not sure exactly.
Looks like they turned the rec center into some kind of government research facility.
We're on our way to save the baby Dominator.
- What? - It's a long story.
Well, that story's about to get a lot more interesting because his mom just landed and she's looking for him.
Wait, the Dominator has a Mominator? And it gets worse.
I think she might have read my mind.
- Wait, what did she see? - Well, she's looking for her baby.
The last time I saw him was At my house.
My mom's home.
If the queen finds her Don't worry, we won't let that happen.
I'll keep watch for the queen.
- You check on Ray's mom.
- Okay.
How do I look? I'm kidding.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Animal control.
Again.
Back to check out my crawl space? Your who? [CLEARS THROAT.]
So what's your excuse this time? Family of possums? Come to wrestle a bear? How did you make a family of possums sound so sexy? Well, you found your animal right here.
But good luck controlling her.
[MUFFLED SCREAMING.]
Who's there? [LIQUID DRIPPING.]
[MUFFLED SCREAMING.]
Mrs.
Palmer? [MUFFLED.]
Please help me! Help! But if you're here, then [DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
It's a Wow, you are very powerful.
You have no idea.
[KIDS YELLING.]
Trickor-treat! Ray's mom, it's an honor just to be nominated We both know it's too late to stop this.
Well, maybe if we just get to know each other [SHUSHING.]
- [DOOR OPENS.]
- Get away from him, you bitch.
I knew it, you're jealous.
No, she's messing with your mind.
She's making you see things.
That Nate, that is not Ray's mother.
Don't be ridiculous.
Of course it's Ray's mom.
Who else would it be? Oh, my God.
I kissed a Dominator.
[SNARLS.]
And I liked it.
What's the matter? Don't you think I'm pretty? [ROARING.]
Hey, over here.
Super ambitious album.
[FURNITURE CRASHES.]
[SNARLS LOUDLY.]
Sara, we found the queen.
[GROWLS.]
[ROARS.]
Whoa.
Awesome costume.
I'm almost back to the ship.
I'll fly to you, and we'll try to lure her onto the brig.
Oh, crap.
"Oh, crap" what? All right, on to plan B.
Let's say somebody stole the Waverider.
What if we give the queen what she wants and just hope she goes in peace? You mean the baby? I'm already on it.
Gumball.
[REMOTE CLICKS.]
Don't move.
Step away.
You have no idea what that thing is capable of.
We're taking it with us.
No one needs to get hurt.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Can't let you do that.
Uh, I don't think you want to do that.
You should really lower your weapons.
I-I can't.
He's controlling them.
Ray, turn it back on.
- No.
- No? What? What do you mean no? It'll hurt him.
He'll hurt all of us.
He wouldn't do that.
I can't believe I was this stubborn.
Look, if you don't listen to me, we're all going to die.
Good morning Good morning We've talked the whole night through Good morning, good morning BOTH: To you Good morning Good morning Sunbeams will soon shine through BOTH: Good morning, good morning to you - Good morning - Good morning It's great to stay up late Good morning, good morning - To you - So we should go, right? Yeah, yeah.
I told you he wouldn't hurt anyone.
You're right.
I should have trusted you.
I'm sorry for the tough love.
Good morning, good morning to you Let's go.
- Let's go.
- Left the movie show The future wasn't bright But came the dawn, the show goes on And I don't want to say good night [CHUCKLES.]
Man, you guys are really good.
- Ray.
- Yeah, but they were just - Good morning - Yep.
Good morning Quick, I'm sure those agents are already coming to their senses.
- Hey, we can use those.
- Those aren't ours.
We can't steal.
[CHUCKLES.]
I knew you were a good kid.
But let's just make an exception, just this once.
Guys, we've got the baby.
And we got the queen.
And she's trying to kill us.
Let's hope everyone gets here at the same time, or else we're gonna have one angry alien mama.
- We're gonna make it.
- Are you sure it's okay - we borrowed the Waverider? - I'm sure they'll be fine.
We're never gonna make it.
They went this way! God, I hope this works.
[WHOOSHING.]
[UPLIFTING MUSIC.]
[CHATTERING HAPPILY.]
Hey, Gumball.
Whoa.
Mominator incoming! I'll take her.
This one's personal.
She put me in a cocoon.
[GROWLING.]
Whoa, it's like "E.
T.
" - What's "E.
T.
"? - "What's 'E.
T.
'?" [SNARLS.]
[CHATTERING.]
Go ahead.
You have to go now.
You need your mom.
But we'll still be friends.
[CHATTERING SADLY.]
I'll be all right.
I have people here to take care of me.
And I wouldn't have found them without you.
Go on.
Go on, little buddy.
Go to your mama.
[CHATTERING.]
[MOANING.]
See you later, Gumball.
I'm not crying.
I just have, uh, alien goo in my eye.
Yeah, me too.
Now I'm gonna go brush my teeth forever.
Wait.
Why? I'm so glad I could be here to welcome you to this world.
I'm sure it's overwhelming, and I'm sorry to say it doesn't really ever go away.
But this place it's also full of wonders.
Wonders that I'm discovering even now.
Hey.
I'm sorry, man.
I You almost missed this because of me, because I didn't trust you, and No, I should have been I should have been honest with you from the beginning.
You're as much a part of this family as Lily and Clarissa and now this little guy, Ronnie.
It's perfect that you're here with us right now.
Mr.
Rory, on the other hand, is inexplicable.
[CHUCKLES.]
I thought we should celebrate.
- Oh.
- One for you.
- One for you.
- Thank you.
- And one for you.
- Man, dude, come on, man.
Not the baby.
Cute.
- [DEVICE WHIRS.]
- [WHOOSHING.]
- What happened? - Possums.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
It's mating season.
They got all in your vents.
So, um we got rid of them.
So you're saying one of Ray's strays didn't do this? Your son? No, no, no.
And, uh don't worry, I'm sure he'll grow out of that eventually.
You know, and, uh, I think you're doing a really good job with him.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yeah, so could we go now, please? - Yep.
- Mm-hmm.
I can't believe you made out with my mom.
Look, man, it was the '80s.
Did the right thing, you know.
Letting him go.
He was my only real friend.
We were supposed to watch the movie together.
[EMOTIONAL MUSIC.]
You know, I felt alone for a long time.
So long that I just figured that's how things were gonna be.
It turns out there were people out there for me that I didn't even know I wanted.
You'll find your people too.
I promise.
You just have to keep believing that things will be okay even when it's hard.
Will you watch the movie with me? Yeah, my ride's here, but maybe next time.
Besides, shouldn't you be out trick-or-treating? Me and Gumball were gonna go together.
Besides, I can't eat all that candy anyway.
[KIDS YELLING.]
Trick-or-treat! Hey, look at Palmer.
What are you supposed to be? I'm the Atom.
That's, like, the coolest superhero ever.
The Atom? That's a stupid name.
Actually, I think it's pretty clever.
[EXCITING MUSIC.]
Cool costume.
[SIGHS.]
I can't believe you guys talked me into wearing this.
How do you fight in these things? Who are you guys? We're his friends.
These guys are your friends? Cool.
Hand the candy over.
And your allowance.
You know, in my time, the FDA outlawed all this.
[CHUCKLES.]
Guess they got my letters.
Hey, do your missions always go this poorly? No, no.
There was this one time where we No, actually, yes, they do.
Yeah, can't wait for the next one.
Which means we should probably get to know each other.
So two truths and a lie.
Seriously? Are we team-building right now? Number one.
Back home, my friends used to call me Z.
Number two, I got a copy of "Zelda" on the black market and never beat that final boss.
Ganon.
And number three, I love musicals.
Hmm.
Z we're watching "Singin' in the Rain.
" I'll go get the popcorn.
Hey, movie night.
Want to join us? Man, I got some work to do, and Actually, I want to ask you something.
Yeah, shoot.
It's just Seeing Stein with his grandkid earlier, I I mean, we're his family, but this isn't his home.
- Not anymore.
- Yeah.
But you two are inseparable.
Like, literally.
That's what I need your help with.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
I want to break up Firestorm.
That's right, history has been torn to shreds, which means it's up to us to put it back together again piece by piece, fixing these so-called anachronisms before we get torn to shreds.
So please, don't call us heroes.
We're legends.
Zari Tomaz? Previously on "Legends of Tomorrow" Come with us if you want to live.
That's enough, Zari.
You're not going anywhere without us.
[WHOOSHING.]
My brother had powers because he wielded this.
He fought against A.
R.
G.
U.
S.
' injustices, so he was hunted.
- We all were.
- Come with us.
What would you rather do, hide from A.
R.
G.
U.
S.
your whole life or time travel? - Whoa, Lily.
- I'm pregnant.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Hello? - [CREATURE GROWLING.]
What's your name? - [CREATURE SNARLS.]
- Mine's Ray Palmer.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
52-19.
I repeat, we have a 52-19.
Subject on the move.
Lock down all exits.
Code Red.
Engaging lockdown protocols.
He went this way.
- [DOOR CLOSING.]
- Got him.
He's headed for the lab.
Can't let you go in there, Raymond.
[GUN COCKS.]
You're not gonna hurt me.
I'm I'm just a kid.
And if you want to make it to adulthood, you'll start seeing the reality of the situation.
So why don't you calm down and we'll have ourselves a nice chat? There you go.
Now come with us.
[GUNSHOT.]
What makes a hero? Is it powers? Strength? Bravery? No.
A hero is forged by his or her relationships.
Our bonds of brotherhood or sisterhood.
That is why I'm taking you all through the ten-step team-building process I perfected at Palmer Tech.
Step one, part one: icebreakers.
Dude, we've been stuck on a ship that has one bathroom.
I think we know each other well enough.
And your timing couldn't be worse, given that we're being chased by a water-wielding assassin and the Time Bureau.
We need to grow as a team.
First step is two truths and a lie.
It's gonna be fun.
Lie.
I haven't started yet.
Look I know you guys probably think - this is lame - Truth.
But we have a new crew member, and it is important for Zari to bond with us, not only as team members but as individuals.
Yeah, well, I'm no hero, and I'm not a member of any team.
Besides, I've already have you all figured out.
The old guy wants to be anywhere but on this ship.
These two have some will-they-won't-they thing going on.
Rory's been drunk since breakfast.
Jax is wondering if I'm single.
And your ship's still mad at me for doing a teeny hack on her subsystems.
Now, what's this about one bathroom? [ALL TALKING AT ONCE.]
Oy vey.
Guys, guys.
You're right, Haircut, this is gonna be fun.
Let's just skip to step two: trust falls.
Now, to demonstrate, Mick, who hated me when we first met, will fall trustingly into my arms.
All right, you promised me good coin for doing this.
And you said you weren't gonna say that out loud.
[GROANS.]
Well, just lean back and let go 'cause I'm not going anywhere, buddy.
What the hell? Gideon, what happened to Ray? According to public record, Mr.
Palmer died in 1988.
Wait, Ray's dead? He better be.
How could Ray be dead? He was just right here.
Yeah, well, he owes me money.
Gideon, you said Ray died in 1988.
Mr.
Palmer went missing on October 31, 1988.
They recovered the body two days later.
He was found in the woods, dead, only eight years old.
If Ray disappeared on Halloween, then we'll just go back to before whatever happens happens.
Gideon, get us to October 30, 1988.
Wait.
Are we time traveling? You better buckle up.
[SHIP WHOOSHING.]
Arriving in 1988.
[SPEAKING FRENCH.]
I should have said there are some really strange side effects.
Buddy! Hey, you're alive.
Aw, man.
Oh, wow.
I love you, man.
Me too.
And always ready for a bro-hug.
I'm in the paper.
And I'm dead? Not yet.
We're in 1988, the day before you disappeared.
Okay.
Well, I guess the fact that I'm still here means temporal permanence hasn't set in.
Which means we can still save my life And enjoy 1988 while we're at it.
[LAUGHS.]
Trust Ray to find the bright side of dying.
Uh, are you sure this is right? That sweater's totally awesome.
How do I look? Honestly? Like you're being strangled by a Muppet.
Can't believe people used to wear this stuff.
Hey, speak for yourself.
I look good in any era.
[SIGHS.]
I can't wait to show you guys my home.
First we have to go to Pizza Master, best slice in town.
Then we have to go to Video Village.
I can't tell you how much of my allowance I spent there.
So you're always this positive, even when you're dead? How can you pretend like everything's okay? I'm not pretending.
I believe it.
I found that if I can trust in myself, I can believe everything's okay, and it usually is.
It's called positive thinking.
Give it a shot.
Is he for real? School's almost out.
You ready, kids? Yeah, let's motor.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGS.]
Mm, this is amazing! Blue skies, smiling kids, an actual white picket fence.
Well, I think it's actually a trellis, but yeah, same thing.
Oh.
Wow, there I am.
Thanks for the pop quiz, Mrs.
Garvin.
It really reinforced some fundamentals.
- Yeah, that's definitely you.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Okay, now, whoever's targeting me could be anywhere, so keep a lookout for anything unusual.
Guys, here I come.
I mean little me He's coming at you.
Catch up with me on Main Street, and, um keep me alive.
Got eyes on Ray to make a move.
Well, it looks like you're taking a detour.
Did you frequent the Ivy Town Newsstand as a boy? Yeah, I must be picking up the new issue of "Scientific American.
" I was more of a "National Geographic" boy myself.
Once a geek, always a geek.
Well, whoever's after me could be there, so Yeah, we'll stick on him.
[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC.]
Okay, I got somebody checking out magazines and one shopkeeper.
I could knock this place off with a water pistol.
Okay, new mission: keep me away from Mick.
I don't want today to be the day I descend into a life of crime.
Well, Haircut looks like it's too late.
Wait, what does that mean? You're by the candy bars.
Well, get me away from there.
That stuff's poison.
- Yeah, that's not all.
- Wait, what does that mean? - You're shoplifting.
- Wait.
- What? - Damn, Haircut.
You had balls.
I've never stolen a thing in my life.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, you have now.
I'm proud of you.
- Little you's on the move.
- Well, stop him.
Me.
Stop both of us.
I'm no rat.
Ready at the home front.
See, now this? This is a time machine.
I got eyes on little Ray.
- We got hostile incoming.
- What is it? Assassin? Time Bureau? [SIGHS.]
Almost as bad.
Bullies.
Hey, Palmer, let's play.
No, it's just Gus and Ty.
We were friends.
Very funny, guys.
Do you want me to rough them up? Nah, nah, nah, it's, uh They were just kidding.
Give that back.
Come on.
- Give that back! - Here.
Beginning to think maybe they weren't kidding.
This is boring.
Let's go, Ty.
I can't believe he actually thinks we're friends.
Bye, guys! I guess kids are mean in any time period.
['80S ROCK SONG PLAYING ON CAR STEREO.]
'Cause love is blind We circled the neighborhood, checked the yard.
It seems normal.
Scary normal.
Maybe young Ray died of boredom.
No, something's up.
Something's wrong.
Look, maybe it was the candy.
Maybe I overdosed on high-fructose corn syrup and food coloring.
Or maybe your killer aborted when we showed up.
Let's get back to the ship and check the historical record.
[SIGHS.]
Give me a minute.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
Dinnertime.
Got you gummy bears, licorice, Nougat Nummies.
Wait till we go trick-or-treating tomorrow.
There's a whole lot more where that came from.
Huh.
I'm talking to someone in my room.
[SNARLING.]
[WRAPPER CRINKLING.]
[BURPS.]
Knew you were hungry.
Coast is clear, Gumball.
You can come on out.
[WHIMPERING SOFTLY.]
[CHATTERING SOFTLY.]
Guys.
I think I know what kills me.
It's a Dominator.
So aliens are real.
Yep, and those ones are called Dominators.
They're nasty too.
Capable of telepathy, advanced technology, and, the fun one, tearing people limb from limb.
- Great.
- The last time we faced them, they almost wiped out meta-humans and made us fight each other.
And worse, fight together.
And now little me kidnapped one and is treating it like a house pet, which would be cool if it wasn't deadly.
Maybe the baby Dominator hasn't developed all of its abilities yet.
The infant of the species has the strength of the adult with none of its discretion.
It can also mind-control subjects at will.
How can you not remember befriending an alien? Because I didn't.
It never happened to me.
The Dominator is an anachronism.
- It's time-displaced.
- Right.
So we have to get the baby Dominator out of Ray's bedroom and back to where it belongs.
And how are we supposed to do that? Uh, well, it should be easy.
All we have to do is sneak into my house tomorrow when my mom's at work and I'm at school and kidnap the Dominator.
I even know where the spare key is.
Like stealing candy from a baby.
But not as fun.
Yo.
Where were you, man? - You missed the team meeting.
- Oh, you finished already? I was just on my way, but I can ask Gideon to debrief me.
Uh, psychic connection, so I know you're hiding something.
I have no idea what you're referring to.
Zari was right.
You don't actually want to be on the Waverider, do you? Don't be ridiculous.
I am as committed to this mission as I've ever been.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
What's going on? Grey's keeping some sort of secret.
You want to know what's going on? Well, do you know what's going on with him? I have my suspicions, yeah, and I have my ways of extracting information.
[SIGHS.]
Home, sweet home.
[EERIE MUSIC.]
- Wait.
- What? What is it? No shoes on the carpet.
[CHUCKLES.]
I guess I can probably let go of that now.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Oh, man, never thought I'd be here again.
[CHUCKLES.]
My brother Sydney and I used to fight over this thing.
He always wanted to play "Tecmo Bowl," and all I wanted to do was play "Legend of Zelda.
" Yeah, the only video games we had were military training simulations, but yeah, that sounds hard for you.
Our record player.
- Hey, who's Billy "Jo-el"? - What? "Piano Man"? "River of Dreams"? Really? Wow.
You really did live in a dystopia.
No time to waltz down memory lane, Ray.
Find the Dominator and get out of there before anyone sees you all grown up.
Dude, I didn't know you were a Billy Joel fan.
What's your favorite album? Everyone says "The Stranger," but for my money, "Nylon Curtain," his Beatles tribute album, is super ambitious.
Let us know when you're heading out.
We're ready for retrieval.
Whoa.
I never thought I'd be back in my room.
Guys, we're in my room.
[CHATTERING.]
It's in the closet.
Okay, no sudden movements.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[SUIT POWERING UP.]
Ew, leave it to young you to see the best in that thing.
Though you were pretty lonely.
What? I wasn't lonely.
I was just choosing to focus on my studies.
This is probably just my scientific curiosity getting the better of me - Great.
- Again.
- [MICROWAVE BEEPS.]
- Popcorn's ready.
Aren't you supposed to be in school? - Oh, my God.
- Yeah, this is a problem.
No.
Yesterday I'm shoplifting.
Today I'm truant.
This thing is turning me into Rory.
Young you is on the way.
[YELLS.]
Hey, no, get off me! No, no, no, no, no, I am not a toy! Stop that.
Toys are our friends.
[SOFT MUSIC.]
I don't remember you.
Hmm.
Come on, this is my favorite.
It's 1:30 already.
It's morning.
Yes.
And what a lovely morning.
Good morning Good morning We've talked the whole night through - Good morning - Is that music? Yeah, "Singin' in the Rain," only the best musical ever.
Not as good as "Fiddler on the Roof.
" It's great to stay up late I love that show.
Good morning to you What? We got a new problem.
Do you anyone who owns a green station wagon with fake wood paneling? What's my mom doing home? [SIGHS.]
Dude, you never mentioned your mom was hot.
Why would I ever mention that? To you and you and you and you Good morning, good morning We've gabbed the whole night through Good morning, good morning to you Nothing could be grander than to be in Louisiana In the morning Raymond Palmer! You have to hide.
Where are you, Raymond? [EERIE MUSIC.]
[DOOR OPENS.]
Why did I get a call saying that you didn't show up to school today? - Mom.
- I'm sorry, Mom.
I was sick.
Si sick.
No kidding, of course you were sick.
Sick from eating all this candy.
You can forget about trick-or-treating tonight.
Guys, the Dominator's getting angry.
Somebody needs to distract my mom.
Fine, I'll take one for the team.
Raymond, this is the second time this month that I've had to leave work for you.
First you're starting a fire in the science lab, and then, what, now you're sitting at home - skipping school? - School is boring.
I already know all the answers.
Too bad, you're going back, so grab your stuff.
Let's go.
Come on.
[SNARLS.]
What was that? Yeah, now would be great, guys.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
[DOORBELL RINGS.]
[SIGHS.]
What now? Is there a cougar on the premises? Excuse me? Animal control.
One of the neighbors said that they heard some strange noises coming from your home.
So that's what he's been up to.
Yeah, we just got done wrestling a bear and saving, like, a busload of kids.
- They were super cute.
- We just need to come in and take a look around.
Uh, sure, come on in.
- Whatever you need.
- Thanks.
Whatever.
It's my son.
He's always sneaking off into the woods and bringing back strays.
Don't worry, we have seen it all.
[SIGHS.]
Yeah.
I just Ray would make normal friends, you know? I mean, he would rather spend his time with his animals and movies or his weird inventions.
Sometimes I worry that he just gets lost in his own head.
[EMOTIONAL MUSIC.]
Hey, I hope kid you didn't hear all that.
She always said she liked my inventions.
- Captain Lance.
- What's up? I am detecting the approach of another timeship.
What if the assassin followed us here? We need to plead for clemency with the Time Bureau and ask for help.
Whosever here could be tracking us.
Stay off the comms.
I'm gonna check it out.
You keep watch here.
I'll be watching very, very closely.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
They know about you.
We need to go.
No one cares about me anyway.
[CHATTERING SOFTLY.]
Oh, you need a friend.
Uh-oh.
Whoa, oh, no.
Come on.
Oh, no, I've got a playdate.
[TENSE CHORAL MUSIC.]
Zari, stay with me.
I don't want to spook the Dominator or traumatize my younger self.
I should have stayed in 2042.
Ray, hold on.
How do you know my name? It's a long, mostly irritating story.
The only thing that matters is, I'm here to save your life.
No, you want Gumball.
Well, you can't have him.
[MEWLING.]
And I thought grown-up Ray was annoying.
Listen to me, kid.
You don't want to be alone with that thing.
You don't know him.
We're friends.
Your friend is gonna kill you.
If I don't do it first.
What's going on? This about Grey? You said the professor's been acting all squirrelly about where he's been.
- Squirrelly? - Yeah.
When you're on the run, someone usually cracks.
Burns to crew to save themselves.
Burns the crew how? Cutting a deal with the Time Bureau.
You think Grey is ratting us out to the Time Bureau? The old man wants off the boat, thinks we're in too de.
Yeah, but he wouldn't do that.
Really? Then who's been boosting the jumpship while we sleep? - Gideon.
- I believe Mr.
Rory is alluding to the fact that someone has erased the jumpship's travel log.
Someone's been sneaking off the ship and snitching to the Time Bureau.
And if there's one thing I hate more than pigs it's a rat.
How far could he have gone? He's just a little kid.
Well, maybe if you hadn't stayed to flirt with Ray's mother.
First of all, I didn't flirt with Ray's mother.
I merely charmed her.
I can't help that I'm charming.
Wait, wait, wait, are you jealous? [SIGHS.]
Nathaniel, I just think we should keep it simple.
Friends.
Like we were before all of this happened.
I mean, that was still fun, right? Right, right, if we just had a timeship, we could go back to where we never even lived together.
- Nate, don't.
- With a Swedish bed we never quite assembled.
I believe it was called a Double Dorff.
- Just erased it and - Shh, Nate.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
I'm getting something this way.
The mobile team is setting up a lab now.
We need to find the Dominator before it finds us.
What about the kid? He comes with us.
We can't have this getting out.
[SIGHS.]
Looks like a false alarm.
No sign of the Time Bureau here.
[SQUEAKING NOISE.]
[GROWLING.]
Gideon says the professor's been spending a lot of time down here.
Whoa.
The last time I was down here, this place was just a storage room.
Looks like the professor's been busy behind our backs.
So what? He's a professor, man.
That's what professors do.
They invent stuff.
- Stuff like - Like what? Like this.
Best bet is, this is some sort of radio transmitter that communicates through time.
With the Time Bureau? I can't believe it.
Grey really is a traitor.
Kid, I know you're in there.
Oh, good, you found us.
You shall not pass.
[SIGHS.]
There's no time for make-believe.
You are in actual danger.
Step down, you knave.
Zari, think like a kid.
- [CLEARS THROAT.]
- You just have to play along.
I'm I'm here from a neighboring kingdom to speak to Sir Galahad.
And? - Sir Gumball.
- And Sir Gumball.
Yeah, good, that's good.
Keep going.
It's an honor, my lieges.
[CHATTERING HAPPILY.]
Got it.
I repeat, - subject has been located.
- You lied to me.
- No, I didn't.
- There he is! Get him! - Hey, let him go.
- You're coming with us.
Leave me alone! Leave us alone.
No! [WHIMPERING.]
Careful.
The Dominator's sedation is wearing off.
Don't worry, this little fella's not going anywhere.
Doesn't need to go anywhere.
Using its telepathic powers, even a juvenile could control us at its will, force us to set it free or do each other in.
I've seen it before.
This will suppress its neural impulses, neutralizing its powers.
[GROWLING.]
As well as preventing it from communicating with its mother, the queen.
We have the girl in a storage room, and the boy's in questioning now.
Get him to tell us everything he knows: where he found the creature and how long he's had it.
- Then what do we do with him? - Make it so he can't tell anybody else.
- You mean - Mm-hmm.
This queen, if the baby can control our minds, what is she capable of doing? Mental projection, supplanting thoughts and sensations into its victim's mind.
Also known to protect their young at any cost.
[OMINO MUSIC.]
You know what I'm looking for.
A breath mint? Dermatologist recommendation? Reese's Pieces? - [SNARLS.]
- Oh, right, your kid.
You're looking for your kid.
And if you let me go, I'll help you.
Your species cannot be trusted.
Look, I want to help you.
I do.
You can't find him without me.
Agreed.
Going somewhere, Professor? I don't have time to explain.
I'm taking the jumpship whether you like it or not.
Yo, aw, Mick, come on, man.
I just souped this baby up.
Jefferson, please, I need you to help me get out of 1988.
Help you? After you've been lying to me? You've been sneaking out on us.
You erased the jump logs.
You're working with the Time Bureau.
What? Never.
What's in your back pocket, Professor? [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
It's a trans-temporal communicator.
Mm, so you can talk to your little Time Bureau friends.
- No.
So I can talk to my - [DEVICE BEEPS.]
Hey, Dad.
My daughter.
Oh, and all of you guys.
- Hey, Lily.
- Dad? I think it's time.
We're heading to the hospital now, and you're gonna be here, right? How could I miss the birth of my first grandchild? Good 'cause [EXHALES.]
This baby's coming.
Okay, I will see you there.
Bye, Dad.
I took the jumpship back to 2017 so I could give Lily the other communicator.
And you wiped the jump logs why? Because I wanted you to know that I was committed to you and to the team.
I made the decision to stay and I needed you to know that I meant it.
Clearly, my subterfuge has robbed me of the chance to be at the birth of my grandchild.
No.
We can take the Waverider.
What about the rest of the team? I'm sure they'll manage.
You're serious? Grey, it's your first grandkid.
Why would you think I'd want you to miss that? Come on, man, let's go.
[SOMBER MUSIC.]
What's going on? Where's kid Ray? They're interrogating me.
Him.
Code Red.
Engaging lockdown protocols.
- Let's go.
- [ALARM BLARING.]
So why don't you calm down and we'll have ourselves a nice little chat? [GUN COCKS.]
There you go.
Come with us.
- [BLASTERS FIRE.]
- [MEN GRUNT.]
You're real.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
- [GUNSHOTS.]
- Go, go, go! [MEN GROANING.]
We got to move.
They won't stay down long.
We can't leave without Gumball.
Look, that thing is not your friend.
It may be cute and cuddly now, but sooner or later, it's gonna turn on you.
Gumball wouldn't do that.
We can save him, I know it.
Look, Raymond.
I get that you're lonely and that you're just trying to cope.
But, buddy, you can't live in a fantasy world forever.
- Ray.
- Look, trust me.
I understand that it hurts to learn that the world isn't as perfect as you want it to be.
But sooner or later you have to start facing reality.
Otherwise you're gonna end up getting yourself killed.
Hey.
Listen to us.
We're gonna save your friend and make it out of here together.
All right? Because that's what brave knights do.
Right, Sir Galahad? Let's do it.
[GROANING.]
- Where are you guys? - Not sure exactly.
Looks like they turned the rec center into some kind of government research facility.
We're on our way to save the baby Dominator.
- What? - It's a long story.
Well, that story's about to get a lot more interesting because his mom just landed and she's looking for him.
Wait, the Dominator has a Mominator? And it gets worse.
I think she might have read my mind.
- Wait, what did she see? - Well, she's looking for her baby.
The last time I saw him was At my house.
My mom's home.
If the queen finds her Don't worry, we won't let that happen.
I'll keep watch for the queen.
- You check on Ray's mom.
- Okay.
How do I look? I'm kidding.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Animal control.
Again.
Back to check out my crawl space? Your who? [CLEARS THROAT.]
So what's your excuse this time? Family of possums? Come to wrestle a bear? How did you make a family of possums sound so sexy? Well, you found your animal right here.
But good luck controlling her.
[MUFFLED SCREAMING.]
Who's there? [LIQUID DRIPPING.]
[MUFFLED SCREAMING.]
Mrs.
Palmer? [MUFFLED.]
Please help me! Help! But if you're here, then [DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
It's a Wow, you are very powerful.
You have no idea.
[KIDS YELLING.]
Trickor-treat! Ray's mom, it's an honor just to be nominated We both know it's too late to stop this.
Well, maybe if we just get to know each other [SHUSHING.]
- [DOOR OPENS.]
- Get away from him, you bitch.
I knew it, you're jealous.
No, she's messing with your mind.
She's making you see things.
That Nate, that is not Ray's mother.
Don't be ridiculous.
Of course it's Ray's mom.
Who else would it be? Oh, my God.
I kissed a Dominator.
[SNARLS.]
And I liked it.
What's the matter? Don't you think I'm pretty? [ROARING.]
Hey, over here.
Super ambitious album.
[FURNITURE CRASHES.]
[SNARLS LOUDLY.]
Sara, we found the queen.
[GROWLS.]
[ROARS.]
Whoa.
Awesome costume.
I'm almost back to the ship.
I'll fly to you, and we'll try to lure her onto the brig.
Oh, crap.
"Oh, crap" what? All right, on to plan B.
Let's say somebody stole the Waverider.
What if we give the queen what she wants and just hope she goes in peace? You mean the baby? I'm already on it.
Gumball.
[REMOTE CLICKS.]
Don't move.
Step away.
You have no idea what that thing is capable of.
We're taking it with us.
No one needs to get hurt.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Can't let you do that.
Uh, I don't think you want to do that.
You should really lower your weapons.
I-I can't.
He's controlling them.
Ray, turn it back on.
- No.
- No? What? What do you mean no? It'll hurt him.
He'll hurt all of us.
He wouldn't do that.
I can't believe I was this stubborn.
Look, if you don't listen to me, we're all going to die.
Good morning Good morning We've talked the whole night through Good morning, good morning BOTH: To you Good morning Good morning Sunbeams will soon shine through BOTH: Good morning, good morning to you - Good morning - Good morning It's great to stay up late Good morning, good morning - To you - So we should go, right? Yeah, yeah.
I told you he wouldn't hurt anyone.
You're right.
I should have trusted you.
I'm sorry for the tough love.
Good morning, good morning to you Let's go.
- Let's go.
- Left the movie show The future wasn't bright But came the dawn, the show goes on And I don't want to say good night [CHUCKLES.]
Man, you guys are really good.
- Ray.
- Yeah, but they were just - Good morning - Yep.
Good morning Quick, I'm sure those agents are already coming to their senses.
- Hey, we can use those.
- Those aren't ours.
We can't steal.
[CHUCKLES.]
I knew you were a good kid.
But let's just make an exception, just this once.
Guys, we've got the baby.
And we got the queen.
And she's trying to kill us.
Let's hope everyone gets here at the same time, or else we're gonna have one angry alien mama.
- We're gonna make it.
- Are you sure it's okay - we borrowed the Waverider? - I'm sure they'll be fine.
We're never gonna make it.
They went this way! God, I hope this works.
[WHOOSHING.]
[UPLIFTING MUSIC.]
[CHATTERING HAPPILY.]
Hey, Gumball.
Whoa.
Mominator incoming! I'll take her.
This one's personal.
She put me in a cocoon.
[GROWLING.]
Whoa, it's like "E.
T.
" - What's "E.
T.
"? - "What's 'E.
T.
'?" [SNARLS.]
[CHATTERING.]
Go ahead.
You have to go now.
You need your mom.
But we'll still be friends.
[CHATTERING SADLY.]
I'll be all right.
I have people here to take care of me.
And I wouldn't have found them without you.
Go on.
Go on, little buddy.
Go to your mama.
[CHATTERING.]
[MOANING.]
See you later, Gumball.
I'm not crying.
I just have, uh, alien goo in my eye.
Yeah, me too.
Now I'm gonna go brush my teeth forever.
Wait.
Why? I'm so glad I could be here to welcome you to this world.
I'm sure it's overwhelming, and I'm sorry to say it doesn't really ever go away.
But this place it's also full of wonders.
Wonders that I'm discovering even now.
Hey.
I'm sorry, man.
I You almost missed this because of me, because I didn't trust you, and No, I should have been I should have been honest with you from the beginning.
You're as much a part of this family as Lily and Clarissa and now this little guy, Ronnie.
It's perfect that you're here with us right now.
Mr.
Rory, on the other hand, is inexplicable.
[CHUCKLES.]
I thought we should celebrate.
- Oh.
- One for you.
- One for you.
- Thank you.
- And one for you.
- Man, dude, come on, man.
Not the baby.
Cute.
- [DEVICE WHIRS.]
- [WHOOSHING.]
- What happened? - Possums.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
It's mating season.
They got all in your vents.
So, um we got rid of them.
So you're saying one of Ray's strays didn't do this? Your son? No, no, no.
And, uh don't worry, I'm sure he'll grow out of that eventually.
You know, and, uh, I think you're doing a really good job with him.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yeah, so could we go now, please? - Yep.
- Mm-hmm.
I can't believe you made out with my mom.
Look, man, it was the '80s.
Did the right thing, you know.
Letting him go.
He was my only real friend.
We were supposed to watch the movie together.
[EMOTIONAL MUSIC.]
You know, I felt alone for a long time.
So long that I just figured that's how things were gonna be.
It turns out there were people out there for me that I didn't even know I wanted.
You'll find your people too.
I promise.
You just have to keep believing that things will be okay even when it's hard.
Will you watch the movie with me? Yeah, my ride's here, but maybe next time.
Besides, shouldn't you be out trick-or-treating? Me and Gumball were gonna go together.
Besides, I can't eat all that candy anyway.
[KIDS YELLING.]
Trick-or-treat! Hey, look at Palmer.
What are you supposed to be? I'm the Atom.
That's, like, the coolest superhero ever.
The Atom? That's a stupid name.
Actually, I think it's pretty clever.
[EXCITING MUSIC.]
Cool costume.
[SIGHS.]
I can't believe you guys talked me into wearing this.
How do you fight in these things? Who are you guys? We're his friends.
These guys are your friends? Cool.
Hand the candy over.
And your allowance.
You know, in my time, the FDA outlawed all this.
[CHUCKLES.]
Guess they got my letters.
Hey, do your missions always go this poorly? No, no.
There was this one time where we No, actually, yes, they do.
Yeah, can't wait for the next one.
Which means we should probably get to know each other.
So two truths and a lie.
Seriously? Are we team-building right now? Number one.
Back home, my friends used to call me Z.
Number two, I got a copy of "Zelda" on the black market and never beat that final boss.
Ganon.
And number three, I love musicals.
Hmm.
Z we're watching "Singin' in the Rain.
" I'll go get the popcorn.
Hey, movie night.
Want to join us? Man, I got some work to do, and Actually, I want to ask you something.
Yeah, shoot.
It's just Seeing Stein with his grandkid earlier, I I mean, we're his family, but this isn't his home.
- Not anymore.
- Yeah.
But you two are inseparable.
Like, literally.
That's what I need your help with.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
I want to break up Firestorm.
