02x10 - Lunar City Attilan

[bunniefuu]

[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]

[FIGHTING SOUNDS]

Not bad.

Oh.

Are you even trying to hit me?

Go on, use any trick you've got.

You sure about that?

Show me.

[CRUSHING SOUND]

You're in my way.

Nice.

MAN: That's enough.

Is that your superpower, Chloe?

It's cool.

My camouflage act.

Thank you.

Wow, Triton. You lost?

Indeed, I did.

However, I do not approve

of your taking the visage of our king.

I may have gone a little overboard.

Relax.

Triton, you did tell the girl
to use any tricks she might have.

It was an impressive move.

The two of you show
a great deal of promise.

Thank you.

All right!

I think that's enough for today.

Chloe, Kamala,
Would you join me for lunch?

We'd love to.

[AVENGERS THEME]

[PIANO MUSIC]

So are you enjoying your time here?

Mm-hmm. Everyone's been so kind.

I'm embarrassed to say I had my doubts.

I wasn't sure people
would accept newcomers.

So far, it seems it's going well.

It is.

It makes me feel very proud of Attilan.

Crystal?

Your drink is glowing.

Oh, this?

That's part of the moon
mango smoothie's appeal.

This is all the rage among us lunar folk.

I want to try some.

Oh, man, that is good!

I know, right?

My turn!

I've gotta try this.

This is the best drink in the world--

I mean, moon. Wherever!

CRYSTAL: Have as many as you'd like.

[DARK AND FOREBODING
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]

I've located five more
afflicted in hiding,

but no luck finding
whoever's behind the mist.

Appearance rates is still rising.

Understood.

Hulk and Thor are headed
off to the North Pole.

For now, I need you to continue
monitoring the Hawaiian Islands.

Lucky me.

Bruno and I are going to look

into something downtown.

We heard someone's selling canned mist.

Hopefully, this will lead us
to whoever it is.

All right. Be careful.

I'll head to Asia and see
what I can find there.

I'll go with you, Cap.

No, Adi.

I need you here
on comms while I'm away.

If anyone finds anything,
they'll report in to you.

Off to another negotiation

with the World Security Council?

I'll wear them down eventually.

All right.

Everybody ready?

Oh, and before I forget,
I updated your Viscos.

Now you can make long distance
calls to Chloe on the moon.

That's awesome.

She'll be so surprised.

Let's call her after the mission.

-Come on!
-Right.

[FOOTSTEPS]

-CAPTAIN AMERICA: Tony?
-Hmm?

I've been thinking,
maybe we should consider inviting

Black Bolt to the negotiations.

These things can get pretty heated,

and I'd hate to see him raise his voice.

It's just a thought.

Might help to include him.

Maybe having Chloe up there
could work to our benefit.

She might be able to smooth things over.

Hmm.

I'm sorry, Cap.

About what?

I just don't want to burden her.

It's not her responsibility.

No, it's not.

It never should have
gotten to this point.

Do you want some more?

I'm okay for now. Thank you.

I'll have another, please.

Coming right up.

[RINGING]

Comm range update complete!

What's that, Visco?

Incoming call from Earth!

-What?
-Whoa.

You can connect
all the way to earth with that thing?

Did you say Earth?

Would you excuse me for a sec?

-Hey, Chloe.
-Adi!

Look at you.
This is so exciting.

How are you doing?

I'm good, staying busy.

That's great.

And how's the team?

We're all a little worried
about you out there.

You don't have to worry about me.

It's been really great!

[EXHAUSTED RUNNING SOUNDS]

Stop, you two!

[expl*si*n]

Good luck catching us, losers!

Yeah, good luck.

Don't let him get away.

[FOOTSTEPS]

You want me to set up
a meeting with Black Bolt?

Cap was thinking maybe

you could talk to the inhumans,

patch things up,
but Tony wasn't on board.

Why not?

I think he feels
responsible for it all.

Hm.

Tony, Cap, and the others,

they're out doing everything they can

right now to fix things,

so the afflicted can come back,

return to their old lives,

here, on earth.

But it won't be enough
without the inhumans' help.

I'm sorry.

I'm sure you already
have enough to worry about up there.

Oh, stop it.

I'll see what I can do.

OK, thanks.

-Oh, Chloe?
-Hmm?

Make sure to take care of yourself, okay?

I will.

[FOREBODING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]

[UPBEAT ROCK MUSIC]

You sure you saw them
run into this building?

They're here.

[expl*si*n]

MALE VOICE: Woo-hoo!

Hope you can handle my heater!

Aerial Act type zero.

Double impact!

[expl*si*n]

Oh, wow! You're pretty good!

Let's see how you handle this!

Wing dagger!

Aerial act, type five, super speed!

[GASPS]

Who you calling a loser now, huh?

Still you.

[SCREAMING]

Touche.

Oh man, this is too easy.

Tornado.

Good thinking.

Oh, look. They're telling secrets.

Ain't that cute?

Next, they'll be passing notes in class.

You believe these guys?

They're still mocking us.

They won't after this. Let's go.

A-kah!

Here comes aerial act. Type 11.

Tornado!

Ah.

Ah.

Octo arms.

MAKOTO: All right, spill it.
Who's your supplier?

Look, it's not what you think, OK?

Don't play dumb.

We heard you g*ons are selling that mist

that gives the afflicted their powers.

Hey, Bruno, being careful with that thing.

Smells like pomegranate.

Yeah, the spray cans
are full of cheap hairspray.

So it's fake mist.

You've been scamming people by selling

these cans to them as mist.

Can you blame a guy trying to capitalize

on all the bad people
out there trying to become afflicted?

With us selling this stuff,

the whole operation
seems that much more legit.

I can't believe this.

We chased you clowns across
town over some hair spray?

CHLOE AND KAMALA: Wow.

CRYSTAL: Beautiful, isn't it?

I love it.

Yeah.

But I don't see Earth.

It isn't visible
from the side of the moon.

Oh.

I didn't realize.

CRYSTAL: But if you're feeling homesick,

we can do this.

CHLOE AND KAMALA: Oh.

CHLOE: It looks so peaceful.

CRYSTAL: Come on, we should head back.

Right.

-KAMALA: I'd like to stay.
-Hm?

By myself, if that's OK?

Of course.

VISCO: You have an incoming call.

Now?

Ah, be right back.

VISCO: You're so popular
everyone wants to talk to you.

OK. OK. Answer.

VISCO: Be patient with the new technology.

Greetings from Earth.

Makoto?

MAKOTO: The one and only.

How's the Moon treating ya?

I meant to call you earlier,
but we got sidetracked.

I wish you could've helped us chase down

these oafs we were after today.

Oh, yeah?

Miss me that much, huh?

Yeah, we do, a whole lot.

M-m.

I'm--

MAKOTO: Listen, I'm proud of you.

You did what you thought
was right by leaving Earth.

You followed your heart.

You should feel
good about that.

Thanks, Makoto.

Take care.

CHLOE: Wait, you called me in space

just to give me a pep talk?

Sure did.

Technology is neat.

Cute, goof ball.

Ah, oh.

His majesty likes to visit here as well.

Hm?

Father.

Mother.

Oh.

All right, Crystal, let's go.

All right.

And me?

Why don't you stay here
and tend to your friend.

Don't worry. Take your time.

Oh.

I'll do that.

KAMALA: If only we could come
to an agreement

where no one would feel such pain.

I fear the longer we wait,
our chances fade.

ADI: So the afflicted can come back,

return to their old lives, here on Earth.

MAKOTO: You followed your heart.

You should feel good about that.

Chloe contacted you?

She's willing to speak
to Black Bolt to set up a meeting.

What do you think?

I'm sorry I didn't ask you first.

TONY: No, I'm sorry.

Actually, I'm grateful.

Huh?

You did a good job.

Thank you.

You should thank Chloe.

M-hm.

Hm.

CRYSTAL: A meeting
with the Avengers?

I was hoping you could
help me arrange it.

Hm.

The Avengers and inhumans aren't enemies.

They should be working together.

I do believe we share the
same goal as the Avengers.

It's just--

The World Security Council
is keeping clear of this plan.

Cap made a promise.

You can trust him.

MAXIMUS: In any
new friendship,

the first step towards
earning a person's trust

is to allow them the chance
to prove themselves.

ALL: Huh?

Maximus, our king's younger brother.

-Black Bolt's got a brother?
-He's got a brother?

Yeah. Guilty as charged.

Maximus is our king's top advisor,
a loyal man,

and a highly respected figure.

I pride myself in protecting
Attilan and its people.

It's truly my honor.

Maybe you can
help us out too.

I believe we can trust in our new friends,
don't you?

M-hm.

I will gladly speak
to my brother on your behalf.

You really mean it?

With Maximus on your side,

our king is bound
to accept your offer.

CHLOE AND KAMALA:
Thank you very much, Maximus.

MAXIMUS: Brother,
we must unite with the Avengers now

before this incident
grows too much for our people to bear.

They invite you to a meeting

and have chosen a secure region
on Earth to negotiate terms.

They feel uniting ensures the best chance

at finding those responsible for the mist

and putting a stop
to them once and for all.

It's a trap.

With all due respect,

I don't believe
the Avengers to be the deceitful type.

You're truly considering their invitation?

To bring this to an end.

Please, your majesty, for your sake,

I suggest you let Gorgon
and the others accompany you.

MAXIMUS: They're only
sending two of their own.

I feel it's imperative
that we should follow their lead.

ADI: Great spot.

We'll see any unwanted
guests from a mile away.

Wasp and the others said
they'll rendezvous back here

to monitor the meeting.

Looks like it's time
to head to our play date, Cap.

Right.

We've got a lot riding
on this meeting, Tony.

Failure is not an option.

Good luck. We're all counting on you.

So like most missions.

Well, it's now or never, boys.

How about that commute?

We appreciate you agreeing
to come meet with us.

We understand your concerns.

TONY: It's just us. I promise.

We do not wish
to quarrel with you or your team.

If you truly desire peace,
then we lend you our ears.

Well, that's a relief.

Tony, wait. Hold on.

What is it, Cap?

[GASPS]

It's the Council.

How dare you.

You have betrayed us.

Wait a sec. They're not with us.

Deceitful snakes.

Release us.

Whoa!

What's happening?

That tech.

It's noise canceling.

Now, open fire.

Cease fire!

[COUGHING]

Huh?

Uh.

Cover them.

Second wave. Engage.

This wasn't part of our plan.

Black Bolt, don't do it.

You will pay for this.

Ah!

[GRUNTING]

[MOANING]

KAMALA: Crystal, is everything OK?

What happened at the meeting?

Your friends led us into a trap.

-They wouldn't do that.
-Crystal.

We trusted you,
His Majesty and my sister.

Your sister?

I didn't know Medusa was your sister.

This was a peaceful meeting,
and you plan an ambush?

Easy, Tony. This wasn't my strike.

They acted on a tip.

I just now heard about it myself.

Your actions today
will have repercussions.

Someone close to the operation

must have leaked
the location of the meeting.

We know for sure no one here

would have risked ruining this mission.

And I've already checked my systems

to see if they've been hacked by anyone.

WASP: Well, is it possible
you and Cap were followed there?

No. We would have noticed them.

Right.

And that tech they had,
they were prepared.

And unless you're me,
you don't ace a test like that

without doing your homework first.

An organized attack of that size

carried out in only 12 hours

doesn't leave a lot of time
for studying, Tony.

The inhumans may have
more to worry about than just us. Hm.

SOLDIER: Yes, sir.
We almost had them.

But sir, we didn't know
the Avengers would help them.

They interfered.

There was nothing we could do.

Absolutely worthless.

Ah.

MAXIMUS: I give them
the means to achieve greatness,

and they still fail.

The throne will soon be mine.

MAXIMUS: The title, this kingdom,

it was all supposed to be mine.

My brother's powerful voice,

it was too much for him to handle.

MAN'S VOICE: I'm told his highness

will likely spend his remaining days
isolated in this chamber.

WOMAN'S VOICE: Poor child.

Then that means Prince Maximus
will one day become our king.

MAN'S VOICE: He's our future.

MAXIMUS: Sadly, my brother

spent his entire childhood

learning to control
the power of his voice

so that one day he would become king.

MAXIMUS: Brother,

shall I execute our response

to the Avengers' act of betrayal?

Time, for plan B.

Citizens of Earth, on behalf of Attilan

and his majesty, Black Bolt,

I deliver upon you
a message of dire importance.

The deceitful actions of the Avengers

have forced us to retaliate.

This is a declaration
of w*r against the Earth

and all its inhabitants.

In 48 hours,
your planet will know our fury.

Oh, boy.

MAXIMUS: I would
advise you to use this time

to find those responsible
for your current situation

and seek retribution.

It was your heroes that broke our trust,

but you must all pay today.

The count down to your defeat begins.

The w*r between the Avengers
and the inhumans is upon you.

NARRATOR: With the inhumans
feeling betrayed,

Black Bolt looks for retaliation on Earth,

but the Avengers still strive for peace.

Is there no way to avoid an all-out w*r?

The Avengers will battle the most

destructive voice in existence.

They'll need to grow more powerful
than ever to defeat this enemy,

or does someone else
lurk in the shadows?

The Rage of Black Bolt."
