Super Crooks (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 9 - Episode #1.9 - full transcript

What happened?

Stay calm, everyone!

Look!

That's Praetorian!

I've met you somewhere before.

You've got the wrong guy...

It's not working.

I knew it.

It was that woman
who was controlling my powers.

One of them was still here.

It's Praetorian! Of all of them,
why the one with 200 different powers?



I get it. So there's no evidence.

It appears they were quite clever.

Now it's time to take care of this.

No way! Honey!

- Take that!
- Honey!

You okay?

Splash Body...

Normal setting. This won't do.

Let's run while we've got the chance!

What luck!

Are you all right?

- Me?
- No! Honey!

She's just passed out!

Don't think you can get away.



- Praetorian in the flesh! What a stud!
- Wow!

I never thought I'd see him up close!

Okay. You take care of my honey.

What will you do?

We've got to buy Ghost some time.

This guy doesn't even know
what kind of power he'll use against you!

That's right,

but I owe this jerk one.

What do we have next?

Doesn't he care who he hits?

Laser Eyes! Nice!

You lose! Iron Body!

You bastard!

Die!

Seriously?

Give me a break.

Where is it?

Where is this treasure?

"Danger"?

Then this must be the place.

Seriously?

Next...

Fire Bomb!

There isn't much time, Ghost!

Help! Someone!

It's The Flare II!

I'm here to save you!

Paragon!

Ruby Red!

Oh, my gosh! What's going on?

What is this? Call of Duty zombie mode?

Look! Who's that?

It's The Utopian!

And Lady Liberty!

We will take care of this.

Right.

Everyone, we've arrived now,
so everything will be fine.

Leave this to us!

They're kicking our butts.

I'm just getting started.

What's it like inside?

It's full of zombies.

Ruby Red evacuated everyone left inside.

But there's no end to them.

I'll handle...

What putrid, rotten scum!

There are a lot of them,
but they don't put up a fight.

I've had it!

What's going on?

I changed the molecular makeup
of the zombies' clothes into steel.

Nice work!

Awesome, Molecule Master!

It appears that someone is animating them.

So it seems.

Over there!

He's the ringleader, right, Dad?

Stop!

The Necromancer!

You won't be laughing for long!

Look at that!

The Necromancer returned from hell,
but our Utopian is facing off against him!

It's a battle for retribution.

For what?

Didn't you know?

The Necromancer is one of the villains

that The Utopian once captured and locked
away in Supermax a long time ago.

Seriously? Nice!

All right then...

Let's spice things up!

What?

It's dangerous here. Get out of here now.

Uh, right. Sorry.

You there. Haven't I seen you before?

Let's go!

Hey! Wait up! How come?
It's just getting good!

Come on! That guy caught me
the other day in Florida!

There's been an explosion!

What's going on at the headquarters?

Ouch...

What the heck's going on?

That was close! That guy never gives up.

How pitiful.

I'm just a little thief.

Do you really have to go this far?

I hate holding back.

This is you guys' HQ, right?

I don't care.

I don't know what you snuck in here for,
but give it up.

Otherwise, you'll die!

Fuck you, you playing-card freak!

Then you're through!

You're toast...

Not again!

You found it?

Nice work!

Now put it on and say the magic word!

Yeah, I found it, but I ain't doin' that!

This thing is cursed!
Let's just get outta here...

Hurry it up, Ghost!

What did you come down here for?

Just do it! If you don't hurry,
playing-card freak will find us!

Fine! I will.

What's the magic word?

- I don't know.
- What?

Seriously? We're through!

I can't think of anything. What'll we do?

Think, Ghost!

Are you fucking...

Is this it?

That's it! Nice work!

Oh, shut up.

Okay! Hurry up and put it on
and say the magic word!

Wait a minute! Why do I gotta do this?

I missed?

Ghost!

I'm doing it! Let's see...

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

What's that?

Good! Now make a wish!

What? Take us somewhere
far away that's safe...

To Black Rock!

They disappeared.

It's about time to end this.

Yeah, but what do we do next?

What? I don't know.

Dad took him down.

May you return to hell.

Headquarters was attacked?

What? What happened? What's going on?

Honey!

Well done, Ghost.

Everything went perfectly.

Honey, are you all right?

Where are we?

You're conscious?

This is Black Rock in Romania.

Romania?

Damn, that was a total success.

But that was a close call.

Who'd have thought
Praetorian was still there?

Yeah. And I never would have guessed
the magic word would be written here.

Seriously, guys. You'd better thank me.

Playing zombie apocalypse was fun too.

I wish I'd filmed that.

Thank you for waiting, everyone.

The Count will be arriving soon,
so make yourselves comfortable here.

Whoa! Liquor! How considerate.

Let's start by drinking
a toast to ourselves.

Here you are.

Thank you.

With that,

Count Orlok can make his comeback
as the greatest supervillain ever.

And the Network will be through.

When that happens, the Count would like

to make all of you members
of the new Syndicate.

Syndicate?

That's right.

This place was our hideout back then.

The supervillain Syndicate, right?

You always told me about it
when we worked together.

It was 30 years ago.

Really?

That's before the Network.

It's just old folklore.

Say, I'd like to take a shower. Can I?

This way, please.

Come on, tell us, The Heat.

The mysterious Syndicate.

The central members were

the up-and-coming

and energetic me, The Heat,

and the lord of this castle,
Count Orlok, as well as

one more.

The Bastard.

At that time,

when the proliferating superheroes in
the US established The Union of Justice,

we decided to get away from them
by branching into Europe.

When we first formed the Syndicate,
our teamwork was superb.

But while
the carefree Count Orlok loved surprises,

Matts was always quiet and you could
never tell what he was thinking.

- Oh, stop!
- They just didn't get along.

So this is our HQ.

Surprise!

What?

I hate being surprised by people
more than anything else.

Remember that.

Don't get mad.

This is the dawn of our era!

The Syndicate?

Unlike superheroes, an organization
of villains can't possibly go well.

We were always fighting
amongst ourselves, backstabbing,

and trying to best one another.
That's just what villains do.

When the Syndicate collapsed

and The Bastard broke off from us,

that's when the Network was formed.

And this old castle was used as
a warehouse, a live music venue,

and a rental studio for movies.

It's been 30 years since then.

But just for tonight,

this is again the headquarters
for the Syndicate of us villains.

The Heat is back!

Yes, today truly is a special day.

She's got a nice body.

Honey! You're a breathtaking beauty.

Aren't you guys exhausted?

I'm starving.

When's the pizza coming?

I am very sorry.

It should be here soon.

That Orlok is late as well.

- It's the pizza!
- All right! Here we go!

Roddy!

Too bad.

Right now my power
stops you from moving. Mega Freeze.

Your thoughts are frozen as well,

so you can't speak,
and naturally, you can't use your powers.

This way, you can't use
that crazy power of yours either.

Come in, boss.

How are you doing, everyone?

The Heat, it's been a while.

I can't believe you chose
this musty place for a hideout.

What's that?

Your look seems to say,
"Why is a superhero here?"

You see, though I'm a member
of The Union of Justice,

I'm a member of the Network
at the same time.

I bet that surprises you,

but this surprised me too.

I never thought The Heat would
team up with Count Orlok again.

People, your misconduct
needs to be rectified.

You understand, don't you?

My eyesight really is failing.

Remember how you shouted "Black Rock"
when you disappeared?

We're lucky we knew where that was.

I also didn't know this chintzy helmet
had that kind of power.

It was Count Orlok's secret weapon.

Its power is truly to be reckoned with.

Even if I am just about to retire...

In fact, exactly because I am about to,
I must protect my Network.

In other words...

We can't ignore people who pull off jobs
without telling the Network.

Normally, you have to pay 30% of the haul.

But now that we've discovered
that you were hiding it from us,

it'll cost even more.

We'll take the whole
five million dollars that you made.

It will all go to my retirement fund.

And I'm not through!

That was just the start.

Traitors must be fined
a little more than that in blood.

Ordinarily,

I would go to painstaking lengths
to make life miserable for you

by killing every last family member,
friend, and lover of yours.

But since I'm about to retire...

I'm not in the mood for that.

After I retire, I plan on spending my time
painting pictures on an island in Japan.

But there was one thing bothering me.

This.

The Bastard will retire,

but The Salamander
will take over the Network.

If someone like Count Orlok
got his helmet back and got carried away,

it would interfere with our business.

That's why I'm here.

Excuse me! Pizza delivery!

What?

I got lost.

Allow me to continue...

Surprise!

While I was hiding
in the attic waiting for you,

I fell asleep.

What?

Why are you all standing still?
What kind of game is this?

Oh, that's right!

Here. The money I promised you.

Come to think of it, where's my helmet
that was sitting right here?

I thought I told you

I hate being surprised by people
more than anything else.

What are you doing here?

Want some?

Well now, I doubt we'll be meeting again.

Oh, that's right.

If you say a single word
about what happened here,

I swear you're dead meat.

You're lucky that The Bastard
was in a good mood.

So long!
