LOTM: String Theory S3 P16/Transcript

(Alex, Miles and Mina are seen on the couch the next day)

Alex: Still hasn't called you?

Miles: No. It's weird too because he always calls when he says he's gonna call.

Alex: He's probably busy.

Mina: Yeah, you know how cops are.

Miles: I guess.

Alex: It'll be fine man. You're just overthinking this a bit too much.

Miles: I hope you're right.

Alex: I know I am.

(Omega separates from Mina as he awakens)

Miles: Oh, there he is.

Mina: Hey there sleepyhead.

Omega: What did I miss?

Alex: Not much.

Omega: *Sees Miles* Oh. Hey Miles.

Miles: Don't worry Omega, I'm not mad at you anymore.

Omega: Oh. That's good.

Miles: I hate to think how mad Uraraka and Izuku are...

Omega: I'm sure they'll be fine.

Miles: Maybe.

Mina: They can't stay mad at you forever.

Omega: Just give them some time man.

Miles: Alright.

(The four sit in silence as they each do their own thing)

Alex: Hey Miles, has your A.I detected anything?

Miles: Not recently. Puppets are probably taking a break after Radeon's killing spree.

Mina: I still can't believe he's weak to sunlight.

Alex: It seems to only be when he's full of blood. His body probably heats it up so he can absorb it easily.

Miles: So even the tiniest bit of heat from the sun must've been enough to put it over some kind of deadly level.

Alex: Exactly!

Miles: Yeah well he'll probably take a break after all of that.

(Omega is seen playing with a stuffed toy)

Alex: Huh, I thought he was more mature than that.

Mina: His personality reset after he died remember?

Alex: Oh yeah.

Omega: What's wrong with that?

Alex: Nothing I-

Omega: You want me to show you that I can still fight?!

Alex: Yo yo! No man, I was just-

Omega: Nope, you asked for it!

(Omega bonds with Alex who proceeds to look around at himself)

Mina: Oh boy.

Alex: I don't like this. Miles help me get him off!

Miles: Hold on!

(Miles crawls over to Alex)

Miles: Where is he man?!

Alex: I don't-

(Alex feels Omega start to shift)

Alex: Ah what the heck!?

Miles: What is it?!

Alex: He's trying to nibble me or something!

Miles: What?!

Alex: He's doing something!

Miles: Is it hurting you though?

Alex: No, it just tickles!

Miles: Well hold on!

(Miles scans Alex's body until he finds Omega)

Miles: Got it!

(Miles grabs Omega and pulls him off of Alex where he reforms)

Omega: Had enough?

Alex: Please, never do that again.

Mina: Omega!

Omega: He called me immature!

Mina: Well...I mean you did call him immature Alex.

Alex: I didn't mean it like that!

Miles: Come on guys calm down. He's only a baby.

Alex: Alright alright.

Omega: That's what I thought!

Mina: Don't be so aggressive Omega.

Omega: I was just kidding.

Mina: Jeez I really don't remember having to scold you like this when you a baby before. Oh well. Hey let's go get the kids and play a game huh?

Omega: Oh you mean the game we normally play?

Mina: Yeah. Let's go.

(The two leave as Alex and Miles stare confused)

Alex: What are they talking about?

Miles: I think it's that game where he hunts her down or something.

Alex: Ah. I think I might start calling that game "Hunter and Prey".

Miles: Ha. I get it. Still weird game for them to play.

Alex: Hey Mina seems to like it, even though to my understanding she's lost each time.

Miles: I feel like Mina may have purposely lost some of those.

Alex: Hey, makes the kids feel happy.

Miles: True.

(Pearl and Zulu suddenly run downstairs)

Pearl: Hey, can we sit here?

Alex: Why?

Pearl: It's for our game. We're gonna become you and blend in.

(Pearl morphs into a clone of Alex)

Zulu: Miles, give me some blood.

Miles: What?

Zulu: I need it to disguise myself so hurry!

(Miles sticks his arm out as Zulu cuts it with his arm before morphing into a clone of Miles)

Zulu: Now go hide.

Alex: You got it.

(Alex and Miles go hide as Pearl and Zulu sit looking like Miles and Alex. As they sit and wait, Mina returns, looking around carefully)

Mina: Hmm... Where could he have gone...?

Zulu: What are you looking for?

Mina: Pearl and Zulu.

Pearl: Oh.

Mina: You seen them?

Zulu: Not at all.

Pearl: I think they're still upstairs.

Mina: Well I just checked upstairs and it's completely empty. I need to hurry before their dad finds me.

(Zulu and Pearl spot Omega and Foxtrot hanging from the ceiling telling them to be quiet)

Pearl: Oh, well I don't know then.

Zulu: We haven't seen them.

Mina: Hmm... I'll check the kitchen.

(Mina leaves the room as Omega and Foxtrot watch. They spot Charlie just waiting in a hiding spot)

Omega: Alright, when she walks in you guys will pounce and restrain her.

Zulu: Then what are you doing?

Omega: Let's just say there's gonna be a shift in her perspective.

Charlie: That was an awful analogy but okay.

(As the 5 Targhul prepare for their attack, a portal near the warehouse opens. Out steps Scott)

Scott:... The Defenders.... This time... There will be no escape.

Frosty: I shall scout the place out.

(Frosty moves ahead as Soyu stays behind, obviously conflicted about something)

Scott: Why do you look so anxious?

Jirosoyu: I'm connected to you Scott.

Scott: So?

Jirosoyu: I know you don't wanna do this.

Scott: What are you talking about!? Of course I want to do this! I-

Jirosoyu: No. That "King" personality of yours wants to do it.

Scott: He and me are the same!

Jirosoyu: Are you? The King hates the heroes and your brother. But not you.

Scott:......

Jirosoyu: You know you don't want this.

Scott: Just shut up and do what I tell you!

Jirosoyu: *Sigh* Very well... But you should know: I still regret what you had me do to your brother.

Scott: I don't care.

(As Scott moves forward it returns to Mina who's returning from the kitchen)

Mina: Okay not in there... He's always so good at hiding.

(Mina goes to walk out when she's stopped by a disguised Zulu)

Mina: Oh Miles! You scared me.

Zulu: This'll be better for you if you just calm down and let us do our job.

Mina: What?

(Zulu's eyes become grey as he smiles)

Mina:..... Zulu???

Pearl: Yep. And me. Pearl.

Mina: Wait you both can-

(Zulu and Pearl turn back to normal and pounce Mina as they pin her arms)

Zulu: NOW!

(Omega drops down from the ceiling and crawls over to Mina)

Omega: Thought you could outsmart us?

Mina: Jeez first the clones now your kids???

Omega: Yep. And we are well formed team.

Mina: Well I guess you beat me again Omega.

Omega: Ooooh I'm not done yet.

Mina: Huh? What do you mean? You got me, so you won.

Omega: Not until you experience a shift in behavior.

Mina: A shift in.... No. Omega don't!

(Charlie and Foxtrot appear, rush over and pin Mina's legs as Omega bonds with Mina)

Mina: Omega please! Don't- *Starts to feel the shift and starts to laugh* PLEASE STOP!

Charlie: Better than my pheromones.

Zulu: How long will this last is the question.

Foxtrot: Keeps us distracted!

(Alex and Miles walk out)

Alex: Yo what's with all the-

(Miles and Alex stare at the kids as Mina writhes on the floor)

Zulu: Hey.

Mina: GUYS!! HELP MEHEHE!

Miles: You know, I just heard Erin calling me.

Alex: Yeah same.

Miles: We're coming!

Pearl: Bye!

Charlie: Have fun up there!

Mina: NO!!

Miles: Sorry man, sounds really important.

Alex: You have fun with them though.

(Alex and Miles leave Mina behind with Omega and the kids)

Mina: ALEX!! MILES HAHA! OMEGA PLEASE STOP!!

(Omega's hand bursts from Mina's chest as he crawls out)

Omega: You admit that you can't win right?

Mina: YES!

Omega: Hmm I don't know. What do you kids think?

Pearl: Hmmm....

Charlie: Well...

Mina: Omega please I admit I can't beat you! Please no more torture! Also... Its a little weird for you to pop out of my chest like that...

Omega: Huh? Why?

Zulu: Dad....Where do you attach yourself when you bond in that form?

Omega: Usually around the stomach or spine. What, I can't do a little pop culture reference every once and awhile?

Charlie: I mean it's pretty weird.

Omega: I'm blind when I bond to a host, it's okay.

Foxtrot: Still though...

Omega: Hey, it's not like I do anything while I'm in here.

Charlie: If you say so.

Omega: You guys talk to me like I'm a predator. I'm a symbiotic parasite, same as you.

Zulu: Okay we get it.

Omega: Okay then.

(Zulu suddenly senses a strange presence with his Spidey Sense as he stands up)

Pearl: Zulu?

Charlie: Bro you good?

Zulu: I feel something... I think-

(Suddenly a fist punches the wall knocking it down, showing Frosty)

Mina: *Gasp*

Frosty: Well well. Look what we have here?

(Scott sets in the Warehouse)

Scott: Huh, cute place you got here.

Charlie: Oh great it's Scott.

(The other Defenders arrive)

Alex: I told you I sensed something familiar!

Scott: Didn't think I'd come home huh?

Uraraka: What are you doing here?

Scott: Can't an old friend ever come around to visit?

Miles: Not when it's you.

Scott: Well you're not very cheerful Miles. Daddy not approve of your little Spider gig?

Miles: Yeah I'm gonna break his neck.

Scott: Sorry to say, but you're gonna find that a bit hard with Frosty around.

Alex: Oh no.

Scott: That's right, try to hit me and one of your team dies right here and now. But who that person is will be yours to discover.
