Season 1 (2021)
edit1. It's About Time
edit- [Mark and Nolan are playing catch while throwing a baseball around the world]
- Nolan Grayson: You seem tired.
- Mark Grayson: I'm fine. Just got... a lot on my mind, I guess.
- Nolan Grayson: Oh, yeah? So, what is it?
- Mark Grayson: You're just gonna keep prying if I'm evasive at all, so, um... I'm scared, Dad. What if I can't do this?
- Nolan Grayson: [hearing a whooshing] You hear it?
- Mark Grayson: I do.
- Nolan Grayson: Get ready. [Mark grabs the baseball] Were you nervous?
- Mark Grayson: A little.
- Nolan Grayson: But you caught it?
- Mark Grayson: I did.
- Nolan Grayson: Being a superhero is no different. This is the beginning of a long journey for you and me. Along the way, you're gonna need to do things you don't want to do, or might not think you can do. It's okay to be scared. It's natural to doubt yourself, but if you can push through that, and do what needs to be done, you'll do just fine. Do you think you can do that, Mark?
- Mark Grayson: Yeah. [throws the baseball around the world, hitting and wrecking the top of a mountain, and Nolan grabs the baseball]
- Nolan Grayson: Son... kids your age think they're invincible, and it holds them back, makes them careless. The thing is... you're different. You actually are... [hands Mark the burnt baseball] .. invincible.
- [feeling inspired, Mark smiles. Next scene, he is on Art Rosenbaum's lab]
- Mark Grayson: Got it.
- Art Rosenbaum: Okay, kid. Let's get to work.
- [next scene, Mark is in his new suit, and flies around the city, with sequence followed by the song "Broken Boy" by Cage the Elephant. Then, he sees an explosion on the distance]
- Invincible: Crap.
- [Invincible flies off for the situation, which involves Killcannon having a shootout against the police]
- Killcannon: You guys think you might have bitten off more than you can chew? [points at a building he zapped] That building has a hole in it, look! [the policemen continue shooting his armor, until Killcannon prepares to shoot again]
- Policeman: Shit! [avoids the shot, but is knocked unconscious]
- [just as Killcannon is about to fire again, Invincible emerges and punches through several walls]
- Invincible: [checking the rooms, which are clear from citizens] Whoa... All clear? [continues pouncing Killcannon, and defeats him] You might as well give up. I'm-- [title card is presented]
- [the Guardians of the Globe are summoned to their facility]
- The Immortal: Darkwing, why did you call us here?
- Darkwing: [confused] Me?
- War Woman: So none of us signaled the alert?
- Green Ghost: Oh, God, what's going on? Is it bad?
- [Red Rush suddenly notices someone flying towards the Immortal, and saves him. The attacker is revealed to be Omni-Man, to the Guardians' shock]
- The Immortal: Omni-Man?
- [the Guardians, starting with War Woman, begin fighting Omni-Man, with Red Rush preventing his attacks. Then, Omni-Man grabs Red Rush and begins squeezing his head with his bare hands, horrifically crushing his skull]
- War Woman: NO!!
- The Immortal: NO!! [Martian Man wraps himself around Omni-Man, and the remaining Guardians] WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS?! [he and War Woman begin beating Omni-Man violently, until he breaks free, and overpowers War Woman before grabbing Darkwing's leg, and smashing his head to pieces against the floor. Then, he tosses Darkwing's body to Green Ghost]
- Green Ghost: (horror-struck) Oh, no...!
- [immediately, Omni-Man drives his fist through Green Ghost's skull, killing her, and uses her body as a shield against Aquarus's water attack as Martian Man recovers]
- Aquarus: [to Martian Man] Are you alright?
- Martian Man: I live.
- The Immortal: [helping War Woman up] Someone must be controlling him. He would never do this.
- War Woman: Regardless, it's him or us.
- The Immortal: I choose us.
- [the fight continues with War Woman slamming Omni-Man's face with her mace. After punching her away, Omni-Man grabs her mace, and smashes Aquarus's head with it, killing him. An enraged Martian Man roars, and once again traps and subdues Omni-Man briefly while the two remaining Guardians, The Immortal and War Woman, batter him, drawing whole puddles of blood in the room. Eventually, Omni-Man rips Martian Man's head to pieces, punches a hole through The Immortal's stomach, and breaks War Woman's neck]
- The Immortal: (exhales and whispers) Why? Why!
- [without saying a word, Omni-Man decapitates the Immortal and, heavily injured, collapses himself in exhaustion]
2. Here Goes Nothing
edit- [after a flight around the city, Atom Eve welcomes Invincible to the Team Teen's headquarters]
- Rex Splode: Oh, hey! It's the iceman.
- Atom Eve: Rex...
- Rex Splode: Couldn't have won that fight without you. Oh! Except we did.
- Dupli-Kate: They got old. And ran away.
- Rex Splode: Still counts.
- Robot: Welcome, Invincible. My name is Robot. Apologies for Rex Splode. He's...
- Rex Splode: Unbelievably awesome.
- Robot: Incorrigible.
- Atom Eve: And rude.
- Rex Splode: And bored of this.
- Dupli-Kates #1 and #2: [unison] I'm Dupli-Kate.
- Invincible: Invincible. Which one of you do I look at when we talk?
- Omni-Man: [confronting the Flaxans in their home-planet] You don't seem to understand. Earth isn't yours to conquer. [he then proceeds to savagely lay waste on the Flaxans' world]
3. Who You Calling Ugly?
edit- Omni-Man: [in a speech for the Guardians of the Globe's televised funeral] I've fought the unimaginable in defense of this world. I've battled alien tyrants, defeated nightmares from the deep. Gone toe to toe with ancient gods... but no matter what threat I faced, I knew I wasn't facing it alone. Darkwing. Aquarus. War Woman. Green Ghost. Red Rush. Martian Man. Immortal. The Guardians of the Globe. Today, we have lost titans, protectors, heroes, and we are left to wonder... who will save us now? I will, and so will others like me. New heroes answering the call. New champions ready to risk everything to keep this planet safe. All inspired by these great souls who came before us. You will have moments of doubt, of fear, of uncertainty, but in those moments, have faith... [lifts off] and look to the sky. [flies away]
- [next scene, the Graysons attend to the Guardians' private burial along with Eve, and the Guardians' loved ones]
- Mark Grayson: We seriously have to put everyone through this again?
- Samantha Eve Wilkins: The big one's for show, but the public can't know where the actual bodies are buried. Souvenir hunters.
- Mark Grayson Jesus.
- Nolan Grayson: I was never a Guardian of the Globe, but it was the Guardians who welcomed me when I first arrived on this planet. They were my mentors. My comrades. My friends. They knew the reality of this life. Martian Man was exiled from his own people. War Woman was from a different age. Darkwing... [chuckles ruefully and clears throat] Well, Darkwing made his own kind of solitude. It was a rare, lucky few of us who found someone who understood our path, even rarer if they accepted it. I hope they will rest in peace, but at least they will rest together.
- [the coffins are buried in the holes, as Red Rush's widow Olga, still sobbing, tries to reach her husband's coffin, with Cecil and Ferguson trying to stop her]
- Olga: Get your hands off me! [screams in anguish as she falls off]
- Donald Ferguson: Olga, please, calm down.
- Olga: You wouldn't even let me see him. Josef is finally standing still, and I still can't see him!
- Debbie Grayson: [to Mark] I'd better...
- Mark Grayson: Yeah. [Debbie comforts Olga]
- Samantha Eve Wilkins: [to Mark] You okay?
- Mark Grayson: Me? I... I dunno. It just doesn't seem real. [noticing Olga] That could have been my mom, putting my dad in one of those holes, or me. If this could happen to the Guardians of the Globe, it means that none of us are... [title card is presented with somber music]
- Rex Splode: Okay, just to make it clear, there is no universe in which I wake up at 6:00 a.m., and the world isn't on fire. Come on, Robot. We don't need this boot camp bullshit. It's us.
- Robot: We're not on the Teen Team any longer, Rex.
- Black Samson: Exactly. I'm sure you've had a lot of experience wrangling teenagers, but I was with the Guardians from day one.
- Rex Splode: Wow, thanks, Dad. Maybe if you didn't lose your powers, you might've been there to help the Guardians on their last day.
- Black Samson: I don't know you yet, so I'm going to assume that was a joke, and I don't need to beat your ass until all you wanna do is call me "Dad" again.
4. Neil Armstrong, Eat Your Heart Out
edit- [Nolan confronts detective Darkblood in his office]
- Damien Darkblood: Wondered if you'd come.
- Nolan Grayson: You were in my house. You frightened my wife.
- Damien Darkblood: You murdered seven people.
- Nolan Grayson: Maybe it was you. Maybe you came to finish the job you started with the Guardians. You're the demon, after all.
- Damien Darkblood: Hmm... and demons know evil when they see it.
- Nolan Grayson: If you threaten my family again with your conspiracy theory bullshit...
- Damien Darkblood: You'll kill me?
- Nolan Grayson: I won't have to. Who do you think they're gonna believe? Me or you. [covers next to the door]
- Damien Darkblood: [exhales, growling] Won't give up, Nolan. Can't hide truth. Wife already suspects. How long until son does, too?
- Nolan Grayson: Go fuck yourself, Darkblood. [boosts out of the office]
5. That Actually Hurt
edit- Battle Beast: I was promised this world offered worthy opponents! But, oh, how you disappoint. Killing you is an act of mercy.
6. You Look Kinda Dead
edit- [a drunken Doug Cheston awakens in a laboratory]
- Doug Cheston: What the...? Hey, where am I?
- D.A. Sinclair: Oh, hello. [chuckles] I know, you're confused, but I'm sure you're used to that. Just stay quiet and still, and soon you'll be feeling better than ever.
- Doug Cheston What? What's going on?
- D.A Sinclair: You're going through a metamorphosis, a miracle that will take you from useless boil on the behind of this crooked world, to a brave explorer charting a shining future - for all humanity...
- Doug Cheston: [interrupts] Nerd! [guffaws] Who talks like that?! You do! You're a nerd, nerd! [soon finds out he is trapped in a table] Hey! Let me up, asshole! If this is some joke, or some weird sex shit, my dad's gonna sue you into the Stone Age! [lights reveal unfinished cyborg prototypes; horrified] Oh, Jesus! Oh! Oh, shit! [he then notices one of his hands is replaced with cybernetic limbs, and screams in panic] WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!
- D.A. Sinclair: No histrionics, please.
- Doug Cheston: WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO?!
- D.A. Sinclair: Or I'll be forced to...
- Doug Cheston: OH, MY GOD!!! [Sinclair slices Doug's throat with a knife]
- D.A. Sinclair: I think we can all agree you're better without vocal cords... and don't worry about those prototypes. You're going to be different. You're going to be beautiful. You're going to be...
- [title card is presented]
7. We Need To Talk
edit- [William is driving in the neighborhood until something lands violently in the road, causing him to stop his car]
- William Clockwell: What the hell was that? [the dust clears, revealing the subject to be Omni-Man; stammering] O-Omni... Uh, Mr. Grayson... Are you okay? You look kinda, uh... recently on fire.
- Omni-Man: [pats William's car roof, and looks at the backseats] Where's Mark, William? You were supposed to drop him off an hour ago.
- William Clockwell: Uh, Amber dumped him, and he didn't like my advice, so he went to go find Eve.
- Omni-Man: Call him.
- William Clockwell: His phone's broken. There was this attack at the college, and... and all of a sudden, we were... [interrupted by Omni-Man punching the car roof]
- Omni-Man: Where's Eve?
- William Clockwell: Uh... Mark said she got a place out in the woods, a couple hundred miles west of here. [notices Omni-Man's hands] That's not... blood on you, is it? [Omni-Man flies away in silence] Bye?
- Omni-Man: This is pointless! You can't stop me.
- Cecil: Yeah, you're right. I can't. But I can do the same thing I've been doing since I figured out you were a lying piece of shit: I can buy us a little more time.
- [after a brutal battle, Omni-Man savagely impales the Immortal's chest with a single punch, with the world watching in horror on live television. Immortal sticks his thumbs into Omni-Man's eyes in an attempt to blind him. In agony, Omni-Man eventually manages to kill the hero once more, tirefully and horrifically bisecting him and dropping his halved body]
- Invincible: [bewildered with the shocking scene] Dad?
- Omni-Man: [with bloodshot eyes, he addresses to his son] Mark... we need to talk.
8. Where I Really Come From
edit- [Mark attacks Omni-Man, believing that he was in mind control, until he stops]
- Omni-Man: It's me, Mark. It's just me. This isn't how I wanted to do this, but I don't have a choice. It's time for you to know where I really come from: [flashback set in Viltrum plays; voice over] I am from Viltrum, but it's not the planet I've told you about: We have created a perfect civilization, but it took all of our strength, determination, and courage to get there. [flashback shows the Viltrumites battling and killing each other] In order for our people to reach their full potential, we had to remove the weak from our society. It was a long and difficult process. [next scene shows numerous Viltrumites dead, with the strongest of them, including Conquest, standing victorious] When it was over, our population was cut in half but what emerged from the ashes was unstoppable. [next scene shows a Viltrumite fleet in space] By the time I was born, Viltrum was already the greatest empire in our galaxy. We decided to make it the only empire in our galaxy. [next scene shows the Viltrumites battling and killing other aliens, and conquering their worlds] Once I was old enough, I joined the war effort. It was hard, but I believe in our cause. Some species resisted, of course, but no one could withstand us for long. Soon, our empire encompassed thousands of planets, but as territory grew, our forces were stretched thin, and our expansion stopped. [a group of Vitrumites are shown discussing] We needed a better, more efficient way to conquer worlds. [in another scene, Nolan is with a group of Vitrumite agents standing being monitored by their one-eyed general] Our most trusted officers were each given a planet to weaken by themselves. I was one of those lucky few. [Flashbacks show Nolan flying to Earth, and a young Mark riding a bike with Nolan and Debbie watching him; voice over] I couldn't tell your mother why I was here. [flashback ends] But that time's come to an end, and now, we need to get Earth ready to join the Viltrum Empire.
- [as Invincible and Omni-Man fight, Atom Eve enters the Guardians of the Globe's room]
- Rex Splode: Eve! [embraces Eve] Oh Jesus Christ, you're okay.
- Atom Eve: I'm fine. What's happening with Mark and Omni-Man?
- Rex Splode: Omni-Man's kicking the shit out of him. The world's gone fucking nuts.
- Rudy Connors: Indeed. I truly hope Mark lives up to his name. To face his father and survive, he'll need to be...
- [title card is presented with sinister music, and with the title being almost completely covered in blood]
- [after a destructive battle across Chicago, Omni-Man has brutally beaten Invincible to near death, until he remembered Mark's childhood]
- Omni-Man: [angrily as Invincible lies bloodied in the ground] Why did you make me do this?! You're fighting so you can watch everyone around you die! Think, Mark! You'll outlast every fragile, insignificant being on this planet. You'll live to see this world crumble to dust and blow away! Everyone and everything you know will be gone! What will you have after 500 years?!
- Invincible: [weakly and soberly] You, Dad. I'd still have you. [Omni-Man remains silent, as his angry expression changes to a more remorseful one] Dad... [now repentant, Omni-Man flies away from Earth, tearfully]
- Allen the Alien: So... you're a Viltrumite? But you don't work for them? And your dad tried to take over the planet but then left? He just left? That's nuts, man.
- Invincible: Yeah. As far as we can tell, my dad is just gone.
- Allen the Alien: That is super weird for a Viltrumite. They don't just give up. They're relentless. They destroyed my world when my people rebelled against them. They blew up our planet rather than lose it.
- Invincible: Jesus... I'm sorry.
- Allen the Alien: Don't be. From the sounds of it, I'm the one who should be apologizing. If I'd checked my orders properly, I would've seen that Earth was flagged for Viltrumite takeover. I could have warned you.
- Invincible: I would have just gone to my dad and told him everything. Who knows what would have happened then?
- Allen the Alien: I can't imagine what you're going through. Literally. Like, I have no concept of it. With my home world gone, my people had to create breeding camps just to stop us from going extinct. I've never even met my father.
- Invincible: After the last few days, I'm jealous.
- Allen the Alien: The Coalition of Planets will want to hear about you. A power struggle's brewing in the farthest reaches of space.
- Invincible: What kind of power struggle?
- Allen the Alien: The Coalition is trying to unite enough worlds to stop the Viltrumite empire. The thing is... no one's even heard of a Viltrumite abandoning their post. It's insane. It just doesn't happen. This could be the advantage we've been looking for.
- Invincible: Sure. Let me know if I can do anything to help.
- Allen the Alien: I don't get why you're smiling?
- Invincible: Just thinking about everything I've been through. How huge it all feels. But the fact it's just a small part of something much larger makes it all seem more... manageable. I don't know. But it helps.
- Allen the Alien: Sorry to rain on your parade. That happens on Earth, right? Anyway, once they find out your father took off, the Viltrumites are gonna come for you. Trust me, when they set their sights on a planet, they don't give up without a fight.
- Invincible: I'll be ready.
- Allen the Alien: I hope so. What's the plan in the meantime?
- [montage of scenes of various villains to the tune of "Hate To Say I Told You So" by The Hives, and Cecil watching as Sinclair produces more Reanimen; cut back to Invincible and Allen]
- Invincible: Finish high school, I guess.
- Allen the Alien: Oh, all right. Good. Sounds good. [cut to black] What is high school?
Invincible: Atom Eve (2023)
edit- Eve (Age 12): I see it all now. Every single molecule around us. I can touch them, taste them, control them. I could rearrange your cells to make you whole new people from the monsters you are. You've ruined my life. Took everything from me. Killed people I didn't even know I loved! I am Samantha Eve Wilkins, and I DEFY you to even REMEMBER who I am!
Season 2 (2023-2024)
edit1. A Lesson For Your Next Life
edit- Invincible (Alternate Universe): People of Earth... we know you all feel like we're the bad guys because my dad and I took over your planet. But you're going to be part of the Viltrum Empire now. That means no one goes hungry, no one dies from cancer, and no one ever messes with Earth again. Look, I didn't get it at first either. But I came around and you will come around, too. And in the long run, you'll thank us. But you need to remember, the more you resist, the worse this gets. We didn't destroy your cities. You destroyed them by fighting back. Your new Viltrumite rulers are on the way and it's time to join us in welcoming them. And if you still think you can stop us, don't forget I'm... Invincible.
- (in a mid-credit scene, one of the Maulers bursts out of the debris)
- Mauler: I told him not to take off the damn helmet! (we see that half of his body is horribly disfigured. Then, he hears a groaning nearby) Brother? Is that you? (he digs up the debris to see who it is. He exclaims in shock to see Levi, whose body is horrifically scarred, and his brain overextended) How are you even breathing?
- Angstrom Levi: (labored breathing) What...? What did he do to me?!
- Mauler: You did that to yourself. (referring to his own scars) And this to me.
- Angstrom Levi: He did this... made me a freak... He ruined everything...! (groans in pain) He... He killed so many... people I knew, people I loved... (tears up) Millions died because of him...!
- Mauler: (scoffs) Your brain's scrambled. You've lost track of what memories are yours and which come from the others.
- Angstrom Levi: They're all my memories! All of them!
- Mauler: You need a hospital.
- Angstrom Levi: (coughs up blood, panting) No. I need revenge. I need to make him PAY! I WON'T REST UNTIL I'VE KILLED...!!!
- (the show's title card is presented, now in a black background with red letters. It begins crackling. Back in scene, Levi is shown teleporting away)
- Mauler: Fine. Go. Don't worry about me. Just had half my body melted helping you mutilate yourself. That's the last time I work for anyone else ever!
2. In About Six Hours, I Lose My Virginity to a Fish
edit- Invincible: What is it with you and historical monuments? S... Uh, Professor Seismic, right?
- Doc Seismic: Doc Seismic. I never taught.
- Invincible: I can't marry a fish. I have a girlfriend.
3. This Missive, This Machination!
edit- Thaedus: (after Allen tells the Coalition of Planets about Mark's existence and his conflict against Nolan) Viltrumite against Viltrumite? That has not happened since the great purge.
(upon arriving in Thraxa, Mark is met with Thraxa's ruler. To his shock, Thraxa's ruler is Nolan)
- Omni-Man: Hello, son. It's been a while.
- Invincible: Dad?
4. It's Been a While
edit- Omni-Man: Mark! Loo-- I made a mistake. And I've thought about you every day since--
- Invincible: A mistake?!
- Omni-Man: Son...
- Invincible: No, you don't get to call me that anymore!
- Omni-Man: What do you want me to say, Mark?
- Invincible: You could've started with "I'm sorry"! You know what? Don't bother, alright? It wouldn't mean anything anyway. I hope you like it here with your new friends. I guess they don't know you the way that I do. Fuck you.
- Omni-Man: Nuolzot wasn't lying to you; his people do need your help. Let me tell you why--
- Invincible: I don't care!
- Omni-Man: I know that's not true.
- [Omni-Man shows Mark his alien little brother.]
- Invincible: You gotta be f-- [Cue title card. It cracks, another piece falling. Back to Mark.] Fucking kidding me!
- Omni-Man: Why? Why do I care about them? They were weak. Short-lived. Barely a species. They shouldn't matter to me…
- Invincible: That doesn't mean they should die.
- Omni-Man: You don't understand! I'm not supposed to feel this way! How is this better?!
- Invincible: This is how you should've felt on Earth.
- Kregg: Good, you're alive.
- Invincible: My dad... what are you doing--?
- Kregg: Don't speak. Listen. My name is General Kregg. You've survived your first true battle in proving yourself worthy of your Viltrumite heritage.
- Invincible: Go fսck your--
- Kregg: [punches him in the face, then nonchalantly shakes the blood off his hand] Your father will be executed, and you will return to Earth. You will assume his mission and prepare the planet for our rule. I know this may not appeal to you, given your sympathies, so I'll put it like this: you can kill a few humans to convince them to capitulate, or we will kill millions if we arrive to find you or your planet still defiant against us. We will check on your progress soon. And unlike your father, we do not change our minds. Good luck on your mission.
5. This Must Come as a Shock
edit- Thaedus: I am the only Viltrumite to ever rebel against the empire. At least, until you told me about Invincible. Allen, I need you to go back to earth and bring Invincible here. He is the key to turning the tide of this war.
6. It's Not That Simple
edit- (a funeral is held for Dupli-Kate; with the Immortal giving a heart-felt speech)
- The Immortal: Kate Cha was a fearless warrior. Though her powers came from a family curse, she believed they were a gift to help those around her. That was Kate's real power. Her unwavering belief that this world is good, even when it killed her over and over and over again. Kate never stopped believing that. And encouraged me to do the same. Kate Cha was a kindred soul.
- (after Immortal leaves back to Earth)
- Allen the Alien: What the hell is that guy's problem?
- Invincible: His girlfriend just died.
- Allen the Alien: Well, now I feel like a giant douchebag.
7. I'm Not Going Anywhere
edit- Invincible: What do you want?
- Anissa: We've studied this planet.
- Invincible: Good for you.
- Anissa: Human civilization has less than an 18% chance of surviving the next two centuries without the loss of billions of lives.
- Invincible: Is that a threat?
- Anissa: That is the truth. The powerful of this world destroy their own home, strip resources for themselves. Large areas of this planet will soon be uninhabitable due to human greed.
- Invincible: Yeah, I know...
- Anissa: Yet here you are, hands in fists, worried about stopping me instead of stopping them.
- Invincible: It's complicated...
- Anissa: No, it isn't. We have the technology to repair their climate, feed their hungry, punish their criminals. We will save more of their lives in a single year than you could in a hundred. You are failing this planet and its people, do not see that?
- Invincible: [stammering slightly] A-At least I don't kill!
- Anissa: Yet you let thousands die every day you resist Viltrumite rule. Or do those human lives not matter to you?
- Allen the Alien: (after taking a punch from Anissa, and surviving without any major injury) Last time that hurt a lot more.
- Anissa: Killing you is not my task. But soon, another will come. And if he finds you still resistant to your destiny, he will demonstrate the error of your ways and this whole planet will pay the price. I pray you come to your senses before then.
8. I Thought You Were Stronger
edit- Invincible: Who are you, and what do you want?!
- Debbie: He made me call you! He said he'd hurt us if we didn't! Mark--
- Angstrom Levy: [grabs her throat] He was talking to me.
- Invincible: Let them go! Now!
- Angstrom Levy: Did you know your identity is public in almost half of the realities you exist in? So careless.
- Invincible: I don't know why you're here... but I'm warning you--
- Angstrom Levy: You...! You really don't remember who I am. Let me help: when we met before, you hadn't done this to me!
- Invincible: Oh God! You're that guy.
- Angstrom Levy: [enraged] "That guy"? That's all you remember of me?! That I was "that guy"?! I am Angstrom Levy, and you made me into a monster!
- Invincible: I didn't do anything to you! Your machine blew up!
- Angstrom Levy: YOU DID THIS! [tosses Debbie and Oliver aside, making the latter scream in fear] I was gonna save the world! All of them!
- Invincible: You need help. Let me just--
- Angstrom Levy: I HAD HELP! I had the best doctors in a dozen dimensions. They saved my life, rebuilt my body, but even they couldn't fix THIS! So now, I'll always have a reminder of you, and what you did. [glances back at Debbie and Oliver; Invincible clenches his fist] Oh, I agree. [smirking] Come get me.
- [Invincible has just entered Agent Spider's dimension and accidentally run down the supervillain he was fighting.]
- Agent Spider: Ohoho! Talk about your bad luck, Prof. Ock!
- Invincible: Oh... shit, are you okay? I didn't mean to--
- Agent Spider: Hey, thanks, pal! Now let's get this guy webbed up.
- Invincible: What? No, are you...? Wait, are you trying to hurt this old man?
- Agent Spider: Ugh. Look, I saw the portal. I know you're from another dimension -- got way too much experience with that. Especially lately. So, uh, trust me: I'm the good guy here, and Mr. Mechanical Arms is not.
- Invincible: Well, you got glowing red eyes, man! How am I supposed to--?
- [Ock grabs Invincible]
- Agent Spider: Oh! Toldja.
- Debbie: You said you wouldn't hurt us.
- Angstrom Levy: No, I said you were safe! As long as your son dies, like he deserves to.
- Debbie: Stop this. Please.
- Angstrom Levy: You think you're innocent in all this? In so many other dimensions, you join your husband and son when they slaughter millions and make the Earth burn! You're a traitor to your own kind! Your family's legacy is blood! [smears some of his own onto her face]
- Debbie: No. Not me. I raised the boy who defied his father and saved this planet! From what you say, these worlds are extremely different. I know the son I raised, and he is no killer!
- Angstrom Levy: You sure about that?
- Debbie: You make it sound like this is the one world where Mark is good, and you're the one who's bad.
- Angstrom Levy: What?
- Debbie: Oh! That's why you're so angry! Because you turned out rotten here, and Mark is the hero for once!
- Angstrom Levy: [snarls and grabs her by the throat again] YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING! [throws her into a table, breaking it in half; Oliver cries again]
- Debbie: Oliver! [smacks Levy's face with an ornament]
- Angstrom Levy: [grabbing her arm] I'M... NOT... THE VILLAIN! [breaks her arm brutally] I'M TRYING TO SAVE THE WORLD! YOUR SON IS THE MONSTER!
- Debbie: [as Oliver continues crying] Oliver... Ol-- It's... it's... it's okay... I'm, I'm okay... I'm okay--
- Angstrom Levy: Your attack accomplished nothing. [grabs Oliver by the leg] I'm going to make your son hurt. I'm gonna make YOU hurt! I'm even gonna make this child hurt.
- Invincible: No, I mean... You're a man... who dresses like a bat... and your name is... Well, yeah-- I mean, like... don't you think that's kinda lazy?
- Angstrom Levy: Remember those doctors I told you about? The ones who rebuilt my body? They also improved it! Why do you think I sent you across the multiverse, huh?! Why do you think I softened you up?! I don't want you to die in some random dimension! I wanna do it myself! Did you think anything less than killing you with my bare hands would satisfy me?!
- Invincible: STOP!
- Angstrom Levy: [chuckling] No. This doesn't end until you and your family are dead.
- Invincible: STOP... THREATENING... MY FAMILY! [starts relentlessly striking Levy] You have NO idea what I've been through! How much I've been HOLDING BACK! [sends him slamming into the ground, where he pins him down and starts beating him into a bloody mess] I'LL NEVER LET... ANYONE... EVER... EVER... HURT MY FAMILY! [he delivers a last, earth-shaking blow, killing Levi. Mark starts panting ) ...again. [gags and shouts. He starts sobbing] I thought you were... I thought... I thought you were stronger.
- Invincible: Oh God, oh God, oh God... I had to. I didn't have a choice. I had to kill him. He tried to kill me, he was gonna kill my Mom and my brother. He made me do it. It was an accident, but he made me do it! I didn't wanna kill him! I didn't-- I had to! I had no other choice! I lost control. I wanted to kill him... What does that make me? I thought he was stronger! He told me he was stronger! ...I wanted to kill him, but I didn't know if I could! Oh, God...!
- Invincible: Just keep on ignoring the fact that you killed someone. That's helping you keep it together. Although I don't think talking to yourself is the best thing right now, but it's not like you got anyone else to talk to, right? So inside your head, outside your head, what's the difference?
- Cecil: Mark, look at me. If the bad guys are dead, and the good guys are alive, that's a good day.
- Mark: How do you know the difference?
- Cecil: Well, the bad guys are usually the ones who break people's arms.
- Allen: [talking with Nolan telepathically] We are on the same side now.
- Nolan: No... we're not.
- Allen: You turned against the Empire. Mark told me all about it.
- Nolan: You... you saw Mark?
- Allen: Yes, on Earth. I came to enlist him in the Coalition's fight against your old pals. But it seems you beat me to it.
- Nolan: Leave him out of this, this isn't his fight. Let the boy have a moment of peace. Let me pay for what I did.
- Allen: Yeah, don't worry, that's gonna happen. I've heard the chatter in here. They're gonna execute you, bro.
- Nolan: They are, yes.
- Allen: Most people would be more worried about that.
- Nolan: I'm not a Viltrumite anymore, not really. I feel shame and regret for my actions. I see the suffering of lesser beings, and it... upsets me, deeply.
- Allen: You say that like it's a bad thing.
- Nolan: What I did on Earth... the pain and destruction I caused was immeasurable. What I did to those people... what I did to my son...
- Allen: Yeah, and your people are doing that on a thousand different planets, right now. But you can help us stop them.
- Nolan: I deserve death.
- Allen: [exasperated] Oh, God!
- Nolan: And yet...
- Allen: What? What is it?
- Nolan: [speaking aloud] I think... I miss my wife.
