NightMan (1997–1999): Season 1, Episode 17 - Chrome II - full transcript

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

WOMAN:
Very good, Rudy.

Now why don'’t you jump down?

Why don'’t I jump down?

[SCREAMING]

[BODY THUDS]

Ooh!

Nice!

Thank you, Rudy.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC CONTINUES]



MAN:
You do nice work, Rachel.

RACHEL:
Who are you?

My name is Joran.

"Joran"?

I see my reputation
precedes me.

From Dr. Walton,
I presume?

He warned me that
you were very dangerous.

Indeed, I am.

But from what
I just witnessed,

so are you.

Uh!Don'’t worry.

I'’m a great admirer
of your power.

The ability to project
your thoughts
and will into others,

instant hypnosis.



Where were you
when you were
struck by lightning?

Boating on Lake Como.

So, Joran...

Or as Dr. Walton,
for some reason

likes to refer to you,
Mr. Chrome...

Is it true that
you can absorb

other people'’s talents
and powers?

Yes.

I guess you might say
I'’m a psychic vampire,

sucking the special
qualities from others.

But only
at the moment of death.

Does that
frighten you?

Dr. Walton told me that

you'’ve already killed three
of the other cosmic recipients.

Dr. Walton is
a tedious old fool.

Did he give you a speech
about "You must use
your powers for good"?

[LAUGHING]

Yes.

Yes, he did.

But... Well...

As you can see here,

I'’m not that altruistic.

CHROME: A woman
after my own heart.

Rachel, I'’m here to propose
a union between us.

What do you have in mind?

You and I,
merging our powers.

Taking over as much
of the world as we want.

And what'’s to prevent you
from simply killing me

and assuming my power?

Nothing.

Except my desire
for companionship.

A dark queen
for my kingdom.

Let'’s face it.

You are delicious.

But first, there is
one minor obstacle
to our reign.

Someone we must
deal with.

JOHNNY: Man, I'’ve been
looking forward to doing
this festival all my life.

Can you
believe this? Aspen.

This is beautiful.

The trees,
the mountains...

Snow bunnies![JOHNNY CHUCKLES]

This place
reeks of money.

Between this
and the police seminar
I'’m paying for,

I'’m gonna be out
a month'’s pay.

How many times
I gotta tell you?

You'’re not going to be
paying lodge rates.

You'’re going
to be sharing
a condominium with me.

Hey! Look at that!

Kid of mine is playing
with Woody Gillis

at the Rocky Mountain
Jazz Festival.

You know, I...

For years now, I have
been giving him such heat

about not following
in my footsteps

and becoming a cop.

Son, I think I'’m finally
beginning to understand
what you'’re all about.

It'’s about time.

[SOOTHING MUSIC PLAYING]

[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]

Oh... Jennifer.

Elaine.

So, uh...

They got you
covering the festival,
or the police seminar?

The police seminar.

You?

Well...

As my station'’s
lead entertainment reporter,

I'’ve been asked
to be a presenter
at the music festival.

Johnny Domino
is gonna be playing
with Woody Gillis'’ band.

Johnny Domino
is going to be here?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, speaking of which,

you know, I'’m really sorry
to beat you out
on that Domino story.

Actually, that
didn'’t go anywhere.

Did it?

You promised this
big on-camera duel,

between Night Man
and some guy named Joran.

And unless it was
just my TV set,

all I ever really saw
was fog.

They were there,
they were definitely there.
Two of them, duking it out.

Night Man and an impostor.

In the fog.

Yeah, well, you know.

We got a great shot,
a really great shot
of a...

[STAMMERING]
of a giant crater,

where a Claymore mine
went off.

Ah, a giant hole
in the ground.

Tough luck
we missed out on that.

Still, you know, um...

I came this close to proving
that Night Man is...

Yes?

"To proving
Night Man is"?

Never mind.

I'’m sorry, Ms. Parks,
but we don'’t have
your reservation.

I'’m sorry,
that'’s impossible.

Not really.

I'’m afraid you're part of
a giant mix-up with
the Press Credential Committee.

They misbooked
some 20 reservations.

What does that mean?

"Mis-booked"?
[LAUGHING]

I have a verification.

We are sorry,
and we'’re doing all we can

to assist the committee
in resourcing
other accommodations,

so if you'’ll have a seat,

a representative
of the committee
will be over within the hour.

[SCOFFING]
"Within the hour"?

I believe
you'’re next, Ms...

Barnes.

Elaine Barnes.

Oh... Oh, dear.

What?

I'’m afraid you're
in the same boat
as Ms. Parks.

This is unheard of.

May I suggest,
off the record,

the town
is terribly overbooked,

but if either of you know
any of the visiting artists,

a few of them staying
in our three and four bedroom
condominiums

have been gracious enough
to take in a few
displaced members of the press.

I have no intention
of being "taken in"
by anyone.

Nor do I.

Ah! Mr. Domino,
your accommodations
are ready.

Johnny! It is so great to hear
you'’re gonna be playing
with Woody Gillis.

He'’s such
a great person!

You remember me,
Jennifer Parks?
I did the video piece.

On Night Man.

Right, right. Is he
appearing here also?

Uh, not that I know of.

Um, are you...

here by any chance
by yourself?

Staying in a great,
big condominium

with one or maybe
two bedrooms to spare?

As a matter
of fact...

No. I'’m staying
right here
at the lodge.

That'’s too bad.

Really too bad.

What'’s the problem?

Well, there'’s no problem

if you don'’t mind
sleeping in your car
at 20 below zero.

Yeah, just a small
reservations mix-up.

Uh, you know, I...

I know someone
that has a spare room,

and I'’m sure
they wouldn'’t mind
dividing it up over there.

With those two reporters?Yeah.

No way, Jose. I'’d rather
share a room with Manson.

I got to agree with Charlie.
He'’s right.

I mean, those two work
for those stations

that tried to make
such a big deal of that
Night Man character.

Hell, they even tried
to pin that phantom to you.

Remember?And they failed.

It'’s him
in the black coat.

I still think it'’ll be easier
to just isolate and kill him.

I don'’t want
to just kill him.

First, I want to take
everything he has
away from him.

His friends,
his family.

His career.

Believe me,

all they want
is a room.

And they'’re willing
to put all your costs
on their expense account.

But if you'’re
not interested...Wait a minute.

All of our costs?

Well, let'’s see
how he likes it.

Come on.

All right. Watch this.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, sir.

I know you.

You'’re Johnny Domino.

Yeah. Yeah.

We met at the House of Soul
about three months ago.

We did?

I'’m sorry, I don't...

You made a comment
on the black sheath dress
I was wearing.

The black sheath?

[MYSTICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Hi, Johnny!

My name is Rachel.

Rachel Lang.

Wait a minute.

Rachel Lang.

That'’s right, Johnny.

You know,

I think we should spend
a lot more time together.

I'’d like that, Rachel.

Like a lamb
to the slaughter.

FRANK: Well,
anybody got any ideas

about what Johnny'’s
big surprise is?

I don'’t know.

We were supposed to go
snowboarding this afternoon,
but I haven'’t seen him.

CHARLIE:
It'’s a woman.

Now what makes you think
it is a woman?

My keen detective skills,
and the fact
they'’re coming this way.

Hey!

Guys, I'’d like you
to meet Rachel Lang.

This is Frank.

Hi, I'’m Johnny's dad.

Raleigh.

Hi.

Charlie.Hi.

Elaine Barnes.

Please, have a seat.

Thank you.

This has been
the most amazing day.

First, I meet up
with Rachel again...

"Again"? So you guys
are old friends, huh?

No, we just met
once before at the club.

But it'’s like we've
known each other
for years.

I can'’t believe
how much
we think alike.

Yeah, well,
that'’s great, son.

Actually, Rachel inspired me
to write the winning tune

for this festival'’s
New Composition contest.

The winning tune?

Getting a little
ahead of ourselves,
aren'’t we, Mr. Domino?

If you'’ve got it,
flaunt it.

Well, that'’s quite a necklace
you'’re flaunting there.

Thank you.

It'’s my favorite.

WAITRESS:
Your martini.

Wait a minute.
I ordered an onion
in my martini, not an olive.

Since when do you
drink martinis, Johnny?

Take it back.

No big deal, son.

Johnny'’s right.

You got to be assertive
with these people,

or they just walk
all over you.

Which people?

You know, Charlie.

Servers.
Sales clerks.

All these little
petty wage slaves

that don'’t know
the meaning
of the word "service."

You know what,
I'’m just going to tell her
to cancel that drink, all right?

We don'’t want to hang around
this dump all night, anyway.

Good idea.

Excuse me.

Isn'’t she great?

Yeah, she'’s
a regular sweetheart.

Yeah, I don'’t know
about the rest of you.
I'’m starving.

So...

Where are we going to dinner
on our first night in Aspen?

I don'’t know about you guys,
but Rachel and I have

a dinner date at Chez Monet.

[SCOFFS]
You people aren'’t
really dressed for it.

I'’m really not sure
what just happened there.

I think it'’s
called "love," Dad.

I don'’t care what
it'’s called. It stinks.

She is not
the only game in town.

Who'’s up
for some dancing?

See, I don'’t know
about you, but personally,

I feel better already.

Devil'’s Run?

I thought we'’re gonna meet
on the intermediate slope.

Looks intermediate to me.
Let'’s race to the bottom.

I don'’t know, Johnny.

God, I love racing.

I put my life
on the line everyday.

I didn'’t come out here
to kill myself, thanks.

Ah, too bad, Charlie.

I expected Raleigh
to bail on me.

You know, these nerdy
scientist types that...

don'’t really
like sports.

"Nerdy scientist"?

I'’m here.

Come on, Raleigh.

You don'’t have
to be embarrassed
about not being athletic.

"Not being athletic."

Okay. Let'’s go.

You and me.

Raleigh, don'’t even go there.
He'’s just trying
to bust your chops.

Butt out, Charlie.
Ready, hero?

Oh, yeah.
Anytime, hero.

You'’re making a big mistake.On the count
of three, ready?

Yeah.One.

BOTH: Two.

Three.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

JOHNNY: Whoo!

[JOHNNY LAUGHS]

JOHNNY: Is that all you got?

Here I come!

[WHOOPING]

Yeah!

Whoo!

JOHNNY: Hey.

Come back here.

[JOHNNY CHUCKLES]

Yeah!

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

Come on, Raleigh.

Pick up the pace!

[RALEIGH SCREAMS]

[GROANING IN PAIN]

[CHUCKLING]

[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]

Hang on.

What were you doing,
setting him up like that?

Have you lost your mind?

Charlie,
this wasn'’t my fault.

It was an accident.
He got in over his head.

Yeah, well, the altitude'’s
gotten to yours.

[EXHALING]

Nicely done.

Now the next move
is yours.

Uh-huh.

I promise you,
by the end of the night,

Johnny will tell me
everything about Night Man.

And then the real fun
will begin.

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

Bravo!

Go, Johnny! Bravo!

Hold it, hold it, hold it.

Oh, man, did we hit
a rough patch there.

Johnny,

in this section,
we need to try something
a little different there.

You'’re telling me.

Like playing
our instruments.

Uh, what do you mean?

Come on, Woody,

you'’re the one who took
that side trip
to Squawksville.

Johnny, it was you
who didn'’t shift
to the minor key.

JOHNNY: Me? [LAUGHING]WOODY: Johnny...

[LAUGHS] No way.Johnny.

You know,
I'’ve waited so long
to play with you.

You just turned out
to be an old geezer
who lost his chops.

Johnny!

Can I see you just
for a minute, please?

Johnny...

[COUGHS]

What the hell
are you doing?

That'’s Woody Gillis
you'’re talking to
up there.

JOHNNY: So?FRANK: So...

JOHNNY:
Because the guy'’s got
a bunch of gold records?

I can'’t tell the truth?

Last time I checked
it'’s a free country, Frank.

Uh, fellas, why don'’t
we take five
right about now?

Good idea. Yeah.

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

Can'’t believe how fast
this is all happening?

Are you complaining?

No.

Not a bit.

I want to know everything
about you, Johnny Domino.

That'’s why I want to meet
your special friend.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

I think the three of us
could have a blast.

[EXPLOSION]

[BOTH LAUGHING]

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hello.

Ms. Barnes.
Johnny Domino.

JOHNNY: I need to see you.

Business or pleasure?

A little bit of both.

I'’ve got that exclusive
on Night Man
you'’ve been after.

Why me?

Because you'’re
the first reporter

that showed any interest
in the story.

That'’s true.

And I'’m sick
of being harassed

by Jennifer Parks.

You and me, both.

The scheming
little tramp.

Meet me tonight.

Where?

Your place.

Well, I'’m sharing a place.

Uh, but I think
they'’ll be out late.

Sure, I'’ll be waiting.

Don'’t you just
love the idea

of getting even
with the nosy press?

We'’re gonna have
quite a night.

No.

They'’re gonna have
quite a Night Man.

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

[SCOFFING]
Oh, you!

What are you doing here?

I'’m meeting a source.
So make yourself scarce.

A source with a big
exclusive for you?

Oh, wouldn'’t you
like to know?

I think
I already do.

God![CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hello.

WOMAN: Watch the skies.

What was that?

A woman'’s voice.

All she said was,
"Watch the skies."

There!

It'’s him!

My God,
what'’s he doing!

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[BOTH SCREAMING]

Oh, my God,
he'’s trying
to kill us.

I think he'’s
just after you.

[SCREAMING]

[FIRE CRACKLING]

Oh, my God!

We got to
get out of here!

But he'’s out there
waiting for us!

Which way out...Oh, my God!

[BANGING ON DOOR]
[FIRE CRACKLING]

JENNIFER: Oh, my God!

He'’s coming in after us!

[BOTH EXCLAIMING]

Let'’s go! Come on!
Get out of here!

[ROMANTIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[GLASSES CLINKING]To us.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

Ah, what a wonderful day!

[DOOR OPENING]

Oh, here you are.

Hi.

Johnny, we have to talk.

Sure, Dad.

Excuse me, Rachel.
No offense,

but it'’s kinda private.
Do you mind?

Well, I guess
it'’s up to Johnny, isn't it?

Whatever you have
to say to me, Dad,

you can say
in front of her.

FRANK: Okay.

What the hell is
the matter
with you, kid?

Ever since we got here,
you'’ve been acting
like a spoiled brat.

Oh, come on,
that'’s not true.

It'’s okay, Rachel.

I finally decided to start
putting myself first.

It'’s not putting
yourself first, Johnny,

it'’s putting
everybody else down.

From that poor waitress
at the hotel, Woody...

[EXHALING]

You'’re embarrassing
yourself, kid.

And I never thought
I'’d say this, but
you'’re embarrassing me.

The truth
finally comes out.

You don'’t approve
of my behavior.

Well, that'’s
too bad, Dad.

'’Cause I'm
a grown man.

I'’m not your
little boy anymore.

I don'’t need your approval,
or your advice.

Maybe you should try
to accept me as I am.

Right now, I don'’t even
like who you are, Johnny.

[DOOR OPENIING AND CLOSING]

Come on, Rachel.
Let'’s go.

[SAXOPHONE MUSIC PLAYING]

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

His personality may be
a little defective,

but his playing
is still good, huh?Yeah, it was a nice tune.

And the winner
for Best New Song
Composition...

is Johnny Domino.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Thank you!

Give me that! [CHUCKLING]

And he dared
to call me
the egotist?

Thank you, everyone.

I love all of you.

[GASPING]

If only he knew,
who was really
going to win.

Cut! Cut, cut, cut.

Quite a performance, Johnny.

Thanks.

The judges
seem to think so.

I was referring to your
slugging the presenter.

I mean, don'’t you think
an apology
might be in order?

I'’d be glad
to put it on tape to help
you get off the hook.

"Hook"? What hook?

They love me.

And once again,
when Night Man'’s around,

you'’re around.

Didn'’t you hear?

He set fire
to your father'’s
condominium last night.

I almost died.

But you didn'’t.

You cold-blooded bastard.

Take this.

I'’m going to the police.

I'’m not even going to worry
about the story this time.

They'’ll find out
where you were

when Night Man
was doing
a midnight roast.

With people.

Wait.

Don'’t go to the police.

You were in no danger
in that fire.

Yeah, right.

It'’s complicated.

Do yourself
and me a favor.

Call Raleigh Jordan.

Then you can do
what you want.

Hey.

Hey, man.
How are you feeling?

I'’m fine.
How about you?

Can'’t be too much fun having
the whole world mad at you.

Just buying time.

Look, from the minute
I perceived that Rachel
was working with Joran,

I had no choice
but to pretend
to go along with them

making me into
the world'’s biggest jerk.

Raleigh, this guy
means business.

There'’s a lot of
people'’s lives at stake.

If we can keep him focused
on his plan,
we can take him down.

Good.You'’ll be getting a call
from that reporter, Barnes.

Keep her away
from the police.

Gotcha. I got you.

Yeah. Thanks.

Hey, you be careful,
all right?

Okay.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

[CLICKING]

[WHOOSHING]

WOODY: And who
the hell are you?

Just a fan.

I'’d love to play
exactly like you.

Well, it'’s going to take
about 30 years
of practice, buddy.

Not necessarily.

Wait a minute...

[SCREAMING]

Goodbye, Woody.

Your talent will be
in good hands.

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

Excuse me, sir.

Come with us.

Hey, Charlie.
What'’s that all about?

I don'’t like
the looks of that.

Excuse me.

Mr. Domino?Yeah.

You'’re under arrest.

Arrest for what?

Suspicion of murder.

What'’s going on here?
What'’s the matter, son?I don'’t know.

Lieutenant Charlie Dann.
Bay City Police.

Who was murdered?We got a call from
an eyewitness who says

they saw Mr. Domino
push Woody Gillis
from a balcony.

The crowd is going
to be very disappointed.

Oh, they won'’t be
when I play.

You can check
with the boys
in the band.

They'’ll tell you
how good I am.

This is all
very unusual.

Yes. Just go
and introduce me.

Joran.

Don'’t you think you should
have practiced your performance
at least once?

I mean...

You'’re gonna be
out there in front of
hundreds of people,

plus a televised audience.

I don'’t need
to practice, my dear.

You see, the man'’s talent
passed on to me

the moment of his death,
by my hands.

That'’s the way
it works.

They die,

and I move on
with their talent
and resources.

Keep that in mind.

You keep in mind
that I am the one

But see if you can
slow down the arrest

for just
a few moments.

I would love Johnny
to be here to witness
my triumph over him.

This is ridiculous.

Have you found
a body yet, Sheriff?

Hardly.

It'’s 2000 feet
to the bottom
of that ravine.

It'’s pitch black.

Woody'’s gonna be here.

I bet my reputation on it.

The only reputation
you have around here
is bad.

Like I said,

we got a call
from an eyewitness.

She must have been
pretty persuasive, Sheriff.

How'’d you know
it was a she?

Johnny...

You told me you were
gonna do it, and you did!

Don'’t you remember?

You must have me mistaken
for somebody else.

Under the circumstances,

the award committee
picked up your trophy

pending outcome
of this murder investigation.

Ladies and gentlemen,

due to unforeseen
circumstances,

Woody Gillis
will not be appearing
in our finale this evening.

Well, there you have it.

In his place,

his band has announced
the special appearance

by his very special protege,

the one and only, Joran![APPLAUDING]

Joran?

Did he say Joran?

I told you he'’s back.

Hey! Here'’s Woody now.

Sorry, I'’m late.

But somebody
broke into my room
and stole my trumpet.

Mr. Gillis, we got a call
from an eyewitness

that says you were
pushed from the balcony
into a ravine.

I was.
I mean...

I remember falling,
but then this guy grabbed me.

[SCREAMING]

[WHOOSHING]

All right,
get those cuffs
off my son.

BARNES: Well, I guess
under the circumstances,

the awards committee
will want
to return this trophy

to its rightful
recipient. So...

Congratulations.

Or so to speak.

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Hey, that'’s the guy
that broke into my room!

[TUNELESS SAXOPHONE PLAYING]

[CROWD BOOING]

[TUNELESS SAXOPHONE CONTINUES]

WOMAN: Get back!

[CROWD BOOING]

Oh, this ain'’t over, Johnny.

MAN:
Get out of here!
Get out of here!

This time, it'’s you
and me, alone.

[EXPLOSION]

[BARNES YELLING]CHARLIE: Johnny, look out!

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[GRUNTING]

Devil'’s Run, Johnny.

Come on! Just you and me.

[ENGINE REVVING]

You know what?

Joran promised me
a big confrontation
with Night Man before,

and all I got

were cuts and bruises.

That'’s why he's giving you
an exclusive this time.

You do believe me,

don'’t you?

[MYSTICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Yes.

Then you'’ll go meet Joran

at Devil'’s Run.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

Look, I'’ll call you back
as soon I'’ve gotten
a communicator.

You be careful.

Hey. Johnny?Hey.

Good, he'’s okay?Yes.

But he says,
"Look out for Rachel."

She'’s got some kind
of mind control powers.

Altering somebody'’s
personality, maybe?

Would explain
a whole lot.

Let me find Frank.

Right. I'’ll take care
of him next.

Lady, will you stay away
from me and my son?

I know
where Johnny is.

Oh... Where?

Frank, pay
very close attention.

Yes?

You need to join your son

at the top
of Devil'’s Run.

Immediately.CHARLIE:
Oh, no, you don'’t!

Join this![RACHEL GRUNTING]

What... Did...
Did you...

Did you just
hit a woman?

No, I just saved
your butt, Frank.

Charlie.

We got to get
to the top
of Devil'’s Run.

Right now.Why?

I think maybe
she set Johnny up.

I think he could be
in serious trouble.

[SIGHING]

Fine, let'’s go.

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

Wait! I'’m going
with you.

Not unless you got
wheels, you don'’t.

Four-wheel drive
parked right outside.

Let'’s do it.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

You out there, Night Man?

[BEEPING]

Night Man.

I got you, Raleigh.

I'’m on the way
to Devil'’s Run.

Okay. Keep this channel open
so I can monitor you,
all right?

Enjoy the show.

All right.

Well, welcome,
Ms. Parks,

so glad
you decided
to join me.

I still can'’t
figure out why.

Like any
good journalist,

you couldn'’t
pass up the chance
to witness history.

You did bring
a camera, though?Please.

I don'’t leave home
without one.

Oh... Digital.

That oughta do.

You don'’t miss
a trick, do you?

CHROME: Look, there he is.

Lights, camera,
action, Ms. Parks.

Time for the end
of Night Man.

[MOTOR REVVING]

Hurry.

I don'’t want
that sneak Parks
getting the exclusive.

There'’s a fine line
between courage
and stupidity...

and you just crossed it.

Are you planning
to talk me to death?

Oh, you'’d be so lucky.

No, this time,

I'’m going to beat you
at your own game.

Hand-to-hand.

You see, I'’ve managed
to acquire certain skills

from a World
Karate Champion,

who suffered a most
untimely demise.

Like you will.

Take your best shot.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

[PANTING]

Okay,
party'’s over.

Let'’s raise the stakes.

[EXPLOSION]

[LAUGHING]

You know
that can'’t hurt me.

Oh, not you.

But what about them?

And that vehicle below?

So, Night Man,

do you try
to save them,

or do you capture me?

So predictable.

[FAST PACED MUSIC PLAYING]

What'’s that noise?

[RUMBLING]

That sounds like...

[RUMBLING]

Avalanche!

[BARNES SCREAMING]

[CRACKLING]

[YELLING]

Everybody, hold on!

JOHNNY: Raleigh,
I'’m not gonna make it.

Hey, you hang in
there, all right?
I'’m gonna call for help.

JENNIFER: Oh, my God!

Oh, my God...

You guys okay?

[PANTING] I wonder
how deep this stuff is.

[BEEPING]

Did you get all that?

Yeah, it was great.

Night Man drove you off
the battlefield.

[PANTING] I promise you
the end of Night Man.

Watch.

[SCREAMING]

[RUMBLING]

[GASPING]

Come in.

Night Man, do you read me?

Night Man! Come in!

And that, Ms. Parks,

is the end of Night Man.

[SNAPPING FINGERS]Check mate.

We'’ve gotta get some help
for Night Man and
those people in the car.

They'’ll run out of oxygen.Those people are of
no consequence, Ms. Parks.

You'’ve just taped
the story of your career.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

My destruction
over the Night Man.

Reports of my death
have been
greatly exaggerated.

[GRUNTING]

[SCREAMING]

[COMPUTER SCANNING]

What are you doing?

Thermal scanning
for the engine heat
off the car.

There it is.

[LASER BEAMING]

What is that?

CHARLIE: It'’s melting.

Wow, this
is incredible.

Well, I can'’t
let you use that.

No, wait a minute.
Without it, nobody'’s
gonna believe me.

[SIGHING]

Exactly.

[BEEPING]

[WHIRRING]

Oh...

[SIGHING]

I think I hate him.
