Short filmTranscript
00:09Ladies and gentlemen, the Kleinar building has just been hit by a massive explosion.
00:14It's the Wendock bombers, a terrorist attack.
00:18Superheroes are on their way.
00:20My name is Rachel Warren.
00:22I am now a full-time housewife.
00:26I'm the secret wife of the Star Sentinel Guardian.
00:28But I have another identity.
00:30Five years ago, I gave up my position as lead researcher at National Enhanced For Him.
00:36I truly believed I would always be his priority.
00:39Until today.
00:40I told you not to call me during work hours.
00:43Star Sentinel Guardian, you're a murderer!
00:47You sacrificed dozens of civilians just to save the president!
00:51How dare you show up here!
00:53I'm here for another photo op!
00:54There's no one important in there for you to suck up to this time!
00:58These civilians don't know a damn thing lecturing me a superhero.
01:02I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for my image.
01:13Rachel?
01:18It's her!
01:23It's Brian!
01:24Help me!
01:26I'm here!
01:28Brian!
01:29What are you doing?
01:30I'm right here!
01:32Rachel?
01:33Why aren't you at home?
01:34What are you doing here?
01:36I was meeting a former colleague.
01:38My leg, I think it's broken.
01:40My ribs hurt too.
01:42Please, just get me out of here first.
01:44Just hold on.
01:45Those are just minor scratches.
01:47This woman, she's Chloe.
01:49The biggest singer in America right now.
01:51If I save her, my reputation turns around.
01:54And she's unconscious.
01:55Her condition is worse than yours.
01:57Brian, I am your wife.
01:59In your heart, am I really worth less than some singer you don't even know?
02:03Rachel, how many times do I have to tell you?
02:05I'm a superhero, not just your hero.
02:07I have a responsibility to the public.
02:10As my wife, why can't you be more considerate?
02:12Why don't you ever think about what I need?
02:16Brian Warren, I swear if you choose to save her and leave me here, we are done!
02:23You will never see me again!
02:30If you've got enough energy to whine about divorce, you're fine.
02:33The other enhancer right behind me, they'll get you out.
02:35I need this win.
02:40Brian!
02:44So this is it.
02:46I gave up everything for him.
02:49And I don't even get a goodbye.
02:59Mrs. Warren, you have three fractures, five hairline fractures, and a moderate concussion.
03:04If Nova Man hadn't gotten you here when he did, you'd have lost the leg.
03:08Nova...
03:10Man?
03:10That's right.
03:11He found you in the rubble, flew you straight here.
03:14He's back out on rescue now.
03:15You should rest.
03:16Nova Man, a stranger in a cape saved me, while my husband walked off with another woman in
03:23his arms, and never looked back.
03:27It is Chloe!
03:28Chloe, and they're so sentinel!
03:30Oh my god, they're so cute together!
03:32Brian's here?
03:33Oh my god, they're so cute together!
03:38Mrs. Warren, you can't get up!
03:48Miss Chloe, are your injuries that severe?
03:51The star sentinel hasn't put you down once!
03:54Honestly, it's just a tiny scratch on my leg.
03:57But he's such a gentleman, he just can't put me down.
04:03Protecting America's sweetheart is the least I can do.
04:07Sentinel, Miss Chloe, after this dramatic rescue, can we expect things to develop between
04:11you two?
04:15We'd have to ask him.
04:19Chloe is a very special woman.
04:22It's an honor to protect her.
04:32Five years.
04:33I gave up everything to be with him.
04:36And for what?
04:37His ratings?
04:39He left me to die in a crumbled building.
04:41When I was lying there, body broken, he didn't even look at me.
04:46Rachel?
04:49Oh my god!
04:51What happened to you?
04:52They just left you like this?
04:56I am so sorry.
04:57If I wasn't running late to the cafe, none of this would have happened.
05:02I'll get you a regeneration serum from the agency.
05:05You'll be back on your feet in no time.
05:08Zoe, remember the NEI's Dawn Project?
05:11The female superhero program?
05:14Well, I'm in.
05:16I'll be the first.
05:19Rachel, are you crazy?
05:21The success rate on genetic reshaping is 30%.
05:23And even if you survive, Rachel warrants has to disappear.
05:27Your own husband won't even know where you went, even if he is the Star Sentinel.
05:31That's exactly what I want, Zoe.
05:36Brian will be just fine without me.
05:38I'm done with him.
05:40But, Rachel, what happened between you two?
05:47So if Nova Man hadn't showed up, I might never have seen you again.
05:51And just now, Chloe basically just announced she's into him in front of the press.
05:54And he didn't push back.
05:56He loved it.
05:57That son of a...
05:59Rachel, Brian Warren was a nobody before you.
06:03When he applied for the enhanced program, he was broke.
06:06He came on his knees, begged me to let him into the trial.
06:11If you hadn't vouched for him, hadn't worked around the clock to stabilize his gene sequence,
06:16the trial would have failed.
06:17There wouldn't be a Star Sentinel.
06:20You gave him everything.
06:22How dare he?
06:23How could he do this to you?
06:25He told me my injuries were nothing.
06:27And he carried Chloe like she was made of glass.
06:32That tenderness, that's what I fell in love with.
06:35But now, he's giving it to someone else.
06:41Ow!
06:42Rachel, be careful.
06:44Does it hurt?
06:45We gotta go to the ER right now.
06:47Brian, it's okay.
06:48The reporters are right outside.
06:50You'll be on every front page.
06:52Let them.
06:53You matter more than any of it.
06:58You've changed.
06:59But maybe we both have.
07:03I'm setting you free, Brian.
07:06Hold whoever you want.
07:07Save whoever you want.
07:10It doesn't matter to me anymore.
07:12Zoe, I want it back.
07:14Everything I ever gave him.
07:15I can't take the powers fine.
07:17But the fame, the money, all of it, I'm taking it back.
07:23I hear you.
07:25You'll get what you want.
07:29You know the drill.
07:30Three days after you sign, the agency picks you up.
07:33A death certificate goes to your next of kin.
07:36Brian, even other enhanced won't know who you really are.
07:39Not unless you tell them.
07:41Got it.
07:42Thank you, Zoe.
07:43I'll send it back the moment it's signed.
07:55Rachel, I heard you were admitted here, too.
08:00What is that?
08:05Hospital paperwork.
08:07Why?
08:07Curious?
08:08That thick?
08:09Yeah.
08:10Three fractures, five hairline breaks, a moderate concussion.
08:13Ambulance, surgery, you're welcome to check.
08:15All right, stop being dramatic.
08:16It can't be that bad.
08:17I'm here now, aren't I?
08:18Oh, so you do remember you have a wife.
08:20I figured you and Chloe were too busy getting cozy to remember the woman you left in a burning building.
08:25Chloe is a stunt.
08:27You know my approval tanked last month.
08:28She's the biggest pop star in the country.
08:30Only she can flip the narrative.
08:32You've always backed my career.
08:33You understand, right?
08:34Understand?
08:35My husband left me to die and I should be understanding?
08:38You're fine.
08:39I told you.
08:40Those were scratches.
08:41Rescue was minutes out.
08:42Chloe was different.
08:43How is she different?
08:44Because she's famous?
08:45Because she's trendy?
08:46Because she's younger and prettier than I am?
08:48God, Rachel, stop being such a nag.
08:51I'm out there every day risking my life for this city, this country.
08:55But you, you sit at home doing nothing.
08:57Have you any idea how exhausted I am?
08:59Who do you think I'm doing this for?
09:00If I don't keep up appearances, who's going to pay for these bills?
09:03Who's going to keep a roof over your head?
09:05Let me remind you, Brian.
09:06Without the gene activation serum I designed, you wouldn't have powers.
09:09You wouldn't have any of this.
09:10So what?
09:12Stop bringing it up.
09:13You did it because you wanted to.
09:14Nobody forced you.
09:16Yeah.
09:16You're right.
09:17And now I regret it.
09:19Giving you that serum was the biggest mistake of my life.
09:27All right, enough.
09:28Speaking of the serum, has Zoe got a new batch of the booster?
09:32I'm all out.
09:33Can you call her up and get me some?
09:34His reputation, the serum, that's all he cares about.
09:39He never loved me.
09:41The day I can't supply him anymore, he'll drop me.
09:45Sentinel, what are you doing in here?
09:48I've been looking everywhere for you.
09:51Wow.
09:52She looks so drab and all banged up like that.
09:57She's not your ex, is she?
10:00She's my...
10:01Say it.
10:02Say I'm your wife.
10:04Say I'm the one waiting for you at home.
10:05The one who cooks you dinner every night.
10:07The one who irons your super suit.
10:11My acquaintance.
10:12We used to know each other.
10:16Acquaintance?
10:17Not even a friend.
10:18In front of strangers, that's all I am to you?
10:20Really?
10:22Just an acquaintance?
10:23Wow, Brian, even now you won't admit it?
10:26What's that supposed to mean?
10:27Are you two...
10:28She had a thing for me for years.
10:30I never reciprocated.
10:31She's a little obsessed.
10:33Just ignore her.
10:34Oh my god, Sentinel, you are so kind.
10:36Coming to visit a woman like that?
10:38Any other superhero would have blocked her years ago.
10:41Can you take me home?
10:42My foot really hurts.
10:44I can't walk on it.
10:45And the paparazzi are camped outside.
10:48I'll never make it on my own.
10:50Of course.
10:51Anything for America's sweetheart.
10:53Well, catch-up's over.
10:55I'm out.
11:07Brian!
11:08You hold on!
11:09Don't you forget!
11:11You promised!
11:12You make it through this and you marry me!
11:20The power's spiking.
11:21Gene's sequence is unstable.
11:23If he can't read it in, he'll regress.
11:25He could die.
11:27Open the door.
11:28I'm going in.
11:28What?
11:29Are you insane?
11:30He doesn't even know his own name right now.
11:32He'll kill you!
11:40Brian!
11:41It's me!
11:42Wake up!
11:43Look at me!
11:48Rachel.
11:48I'm sorry.
11:50I'm so sorry.
11:51You shouldn't have come in.
11:52I almost killed you.
11:54It's okay.
11:55I'm not going anywhere.
11:57No matter what, we'll get through it together.
11:59I'll push through.
12:00I'll be a superhero.
12:01And then I'll marry you.
12:04I'll protect you.
12:05I'll be your shield for the rest of our lives.
12:07We're over.
12:08You didn't protect me.
12:09I don't need you to anymore.
12:11From now on, I'll be my own shield.
12:15Today is supposed to be our fifth anniversary.
12:18But Brian's probably too busy with Chloe to remember.
12:21I'm not here to celebrate anyway.
12:24I'm just going to pack what I need for the lab
12:26and say goodbye to this place for good.
12:32Mrs. Warren!
12:33You're back from the hospital already?
12:34I heard you were seriously hurt.
12:36How are you feeling?
12:36Even the housekeeper cares more than my husband.
12:39I'm all right now.
12:40What brings you in today?
12:41You usually come on the weekend.
12:43Mr. Warren called me in.
12:45Said you were in the hospital.
12:47Bless him, he's lost without you.
12:48Doesn't even know where the trash goes.
12:55What's this?
12:56Oh!
12:58Isn't that the necklace you couldn't bring yourself to buy
13:00when you got married?
13:01Mr. Warren must have wanted to surprise you.
13:03Go on.
13:04Try it on.
13:07He didn't forget our anniversary after all.
13:09He even got me a gift.
13:11Beautiful.
13:12See?
13:12I told you, Mr. Warren really adores you.
13:15He's told me a dozen times your steaks are the only ones that taste right.
13:18All right then.
13:20I'll make him a steak for our anniversary.
13:22If he handles tonight well,
13:24maybe I can ask the agency to delay the Dawn transfer.
13:29I'm headed off.
13:30He'll be thrilled to see you when he gets home.
13:37Rachel?
13:39Out of the hospital already?
13:41See, I told you, you weren't that hurt.
13:44Zoe got me a regeneration serum from the lab.
13:47Otherwise, I would have been stuck for another month.
13:49You're gone two days, and the place looks like a landfill.
13:51Fridge empty.
13:53Laundry filthy.
13:54You know how miserable it is going on a mission in a dirty suit?
13:57What's that around your neck?
13:59The necklace you left on the coffee table.
14:01I didn't think you'd be so far.
14:06That's for Chloe.
14:08Who said you could touch it?
14:14For Chloe?
14:18A necklace I couldn't even bear to buy myself for our wedding,
14:21and you're handing it to a woman you just met?
14:22Don't start.
14:23I told you.
14:24I'm using her to win back my approval ratings.
14:26Of course I'd send her a necklace.
14:28It's just a thank you.
14:29Stop being dramatic.
14:33Whoa.
14:36Overcooked.
14:37Chloe's personal chef makes it juicy.
14:39You sit around all day doing nothing.
14:40Couldn't you learn how to cook better?
14:42You've been to her house?
14:44Yeah, so what?
14:45I told you, we're friends.
14:47It's work.
14:48Can you stop reading into everything?
14:57Chloe?
14:58What's up?
14:59Pensamol, did you forget?
15:00My first national tour kicks off any minute.
15:02Where's my special guest?
15:04Of course.
15:05I'm your tour opener.
15:07Wouldn't miss it for the world.
15:08And I've got a special gift for you.
15:10Be there soon.
15:18Wait, Ryan.
15:20Stop.
15:22Do you know what today is?
15:24Does it matter?
15:25You've been hounding me since I walked in.
15:26I'm out there fighting supervillains,
15:28and I come home to an interrogation.
15:29Can you just give it a rest?
15:31So you don't remember?
15:34Figures.
15:36A concert means more to you than our anniversary?
15:40Anniversary?
15:42We can celebrate any time.
15:44There's always next year.
15:46But opening Chloe's tour?
15:48That only happens once.
15:50I'm going.
15:52What am I doing?
15:53What am I doing?
15:54What was I waiting for?
15:55I should have known.
15:56I already signed the contract.
15:58Why?
15:59The second I saw that necklace,
16:00why did I let myself believe again?
16:02No, Brian.
16:03There won't be a next year or next time.
16:06There is no us anymore.
16:11What are you talking about?
16:12What do you mean, no next time?
16:15Where are you going?
16:15Got it.
16:17You're mad again.
16:18I promise.
16:20As soon as the concert's done,
16:21I'll come straight back.
16:22I'll make it up to you.
16:24Okay?
16:28Wait up for me.
16:30I won't.
16:31You've used up all your chances.
16:46Time to go.
16:48Once you finish the transfer,
16:50the agency will hand your death certificate to him.
16:52After tonight,
16:54Rachel Warren is dead.
16:56You know the drill.
16:57The pain.
16:58It tears every cell in your body apart.
17:01Then rebuilds from scratch.
17:03It's worse than childbirth.
17:05Could be ten minutes.
17:06Could be ten hours.
17:08I know.
17:08Do it.
17:14It'll hit fast.
17:16Distract yourself.
17:17Your phone, music, anything.
17:26Can't do it so much.
17:28I don't want to do it so much.
17:31I don't want to do it so much.
17:34Slow down.
17:35I can't keep up.
17:39Brian!
17:41Keep running and I'll start ignoring you.
17:55How's the view?
17:58Beautiful.
18:00So beautiful.
18:02From now on,
18:03you're the only one I fly with.
18:05The rest of my life,
18:07just you.
18:17Why?
18:18Why?
18:19Why?
18:19Why does my heart hurt worse than all of this?
18:26Hey, my hero.
18:30Fly me back to my hotel.
18:33Stay tonight.
18:34Don't go.
18:36I know you want me to.
18:39Chloe, not tonight.
18:40I have to go.
18:41Go?
18:42You're gonna skip my opening night after party?
18:45Ditch me?
18:45Are you serious right now?
18:47I promised someone.
18:49I have to be home tonight.
18:51I'm sorry.
18:52Brian.
18:54Walk through that door
18:55and you're blocked.
19:05Rachel?
19:16What the hell?
19:17She's the one who wouldn't shut up about our anniversary
19:19and now she disappears?
19:23We're sorry,
19:24but the number you have dialed...
19:26Phone off?
19:28Rachel,
19:28what the hell are you...
19:30Shh.
19:31Shh.
19:36Shh.
19:44Shh.
19:45Shh.
19:46Shh.
19:47Shh.
19:47Shh.
19:48Shh.
19:48Shh.
19:49Shh.
19:49Shh.
19:50I am Lumina.
19:55The world's only superwoman.
19:59From this moment on,
20:01I live for myself.
20:11Rachel.
20:19This must be another one of Rachel's stunts.
20:21Where is she?
20:22Hiding somewhere?
20:24Is it just because I went to play this concert tonight,
20:27she pulls this?
20:31Dead?
20:32She thinks I'd buy that?
20:33You go back and tell her,
20:34I'm not falling for it.
20:36Mr. Warren,
20:37this is not a joke.
20:38Your wife, Rachel Warren,
20:40was in a serious car accident
20:41on her way home from the hospital.
20:43The vehicle caught fire.
20:44By the time first responders arrived,
20:47the remains were severely burned.
20:49Authorities are handling the case.
20:51When she comes home,
20:52she can see for herself
20:52what she's done to the place.
20:54Disappearing on our anniversary,
20:56staging her own death,
20:58real mature.
21:08On our fifth anniversary,
21:09you're jealous, Rachel?
21:11Faking your own death to drag me back?
21:13Nah, no way I'll let you guilt-trick me.
21:21Brian,
21:22what are you doing?
21:23I've been waiting for ages.
21:25You promised to take me back.
21:27You bailed the second the show ended.
21:30Do you know how bad that makes me look?
21:31There were cameras everywhere.
21:34Chloe,
21:36Rachel,
21:36you want to use this against me?
21:38Fine.
21:39I'll show you.
21:40The harder you push this,
21:41the less I'm coming home.
21:44Don't cry.
21:45I'm coming to the hotel right now.
21:52Finally!
21:53So you do remember I still exist?
22:05I knew it.
22:07I knew you wouldn't leave me hanging.
22:13You have no idea how long I've wanted you to do.
22:19Walter,
22:22let them see you.
22:24The whole city,
22:25let them see your mind tonight.
22:35I'm your god.
22:36I'm your god.
22:38Brian.
22:46Rachel.
22:47Don't.
22:48The day I signed that contract,
22:50he was dead to me.
22:52But,
22:53I'll admit watching him live like that
22:55pisses me off.
22:57So what's your plan?
22:58Let's call him.
23:00The stronger the denial,
23:01the harder we sell it.
23:15Hold on.
23:16Seriously?
23:17Right now?
23:20I have to take this.
23:25It's late, Zoe.
23:26What do you want?
23:29Brian.
23:31I don't know how to tell you this.
23:33Save it, Zoe.
23:34Did Rachel put you up to this?
23:36Decent acting?
23:37Better than that mailman earlier.
23:38But sorry,
23:39I'm not falling for it.
23:40Tell her to come out
23:41and stop wasting my time
23:42or we're done.
23:43Brian.
23:45I saw it with my own eyes.
23:47Her body burned with the car.
23:50Brian.
23:51Rachel is gone.
23:53She's really gone.
23:54What did you say?
23:56I saw her body.
23:58I confirmed it myself.
24:01Brian.
24:01The funeral is in seven days.
24:03Come and see for yourself.
24:05Come say goodbye.
24:07Throw whatever stupid funeral you want.
24:09I'm not going.
24:10Unless Rachel comes out
24:11and gets on her knees
24:12and begs me,
24:13she can stay gone
24:14for the rest of her life.
24:17Brian,
24:17who's Rachel?
24:18Have you been seeing someone
24:20behind my back?
24:27Job stuff.
24:29She worked for NEI.
24:34Don't worry about her.
24:36You and me,
24:37that's all that matters.
24:45What?
24:46You just got here
24:47and you're leaving already?
24:48Emergency call.
24:50Hospital's been hit.
24:51Every enhanced
24:52is being deployed.
24:55Duty calls.
24:57See you, babe.
25:04Downtown Central.
25:06Bomb strike.
25:06The whole building's coming down.
25:07Every active hero
25:08is being scrambled.
25:11First mission, Lumina.
25:16Good.
25:17I've been bored for five years.
25:20You need a partner.
25:21Dawn Protocol.
25:22New hero must be accompanied
25:24by an experienced one
25:25on their first.
25:28Speak of the devil.
25:31It's you.
25:33Funny how life works out.
25:35The man who pulled you
25:36from the rubble
25:37of Klein Tower
25:38is now your first partner.
25:40You're...
25:41That woman?
25:42Never imagined you'd end up
25:43as the world's
25:44first enhanced woman.
25:46It's an honor
25:46to be your first partner.
25:49So, Rookie,
25:50ready to rumble?
26:01Ready.
26:02Good.
26:03First step.
26:04Lift off.
26:05Your activation just completed.
26:07We don't know how stable
26:08you are yet.
26:09Show me your flight control.
26:10Don't worry.
26:11If you lose control,
26:12I'll catch you.
26:16Easy now.
26:18Not too hard.
26:19First lift off
26:21is all about control.
26:26Did she just bust
26:27through the ceiling?
26:28Lightspeed.
26:29Incredible.
26:31Fastest superhero
26:32I've ever seen.
26:33And she just activated.
26:35Unbelievable.
26:36Rachel Warren,
26:38you really are something.
26:40Go on and show them.
26:56Your flight control?
26:58First time out
26:58and you're already that good?
27:00You sure you only activated today?
27:02I've had five years
27:03of pent-up energy.
27:04All right.
27:05Back to business.
27:06Main power's blown out.
27:07ER, ICU,
27:08third floor surgery
27:09all running on backup.
27:11Backup goes down,
27:12hundreds of patients die.
27:13Your job,
27:14protect the backup generators.
27:15Whatever happens,
27:16keep those generators on.
27:18Got it.
27:19I'll go handle
27:20ER evacuation.
27:21Stay sharp.
27:35Bombers again.
27:36They pick the worst moment
27:37every time.
27:39Gotta wrap this up fast.
27:41Folks,
27:42we are live
27:42at Downtown General Hospital.
27:44Every active superhero
27:46has been deployed.
27:47Who is that?
27:48Is that a woman?
27:50Are we looking
27:51at the first female superhero?
27:54What?
27:55A female superhero?
27:58A female superhero?
28:02That figure.
28:06Rachel?
28:10No.
28:12No.
28:12No way that's Rachel.
28:13She's still throwing a tantrum,
28:15faking her death.
28:16What am I even thinking?
28:18Also,
28:19what's a woman doing
28:20trying to play hero?
28:21This isn't a game.
28:22Did you see that?
28:23The one that just flew over?
28:25It's a woman.
28:26Gold suit.
28:27God,
28:27she's fast.
28:28That is so cool.
28:30Finally,
28:30a woman in the cave.
28:32What's her name?
28:32Who is she?
28:37Folks,
28:38we can now confirm
28:39an unidentified female superhero
28:42is on scene.
28:43She might be the first
28:44enhanced woman ever.
28:45This is a historic moment.
28:52Spare me the excitement.
28:53You'll find out soon enough.
28:55Saving the world
28:56is a man's job.
28:57Women just slow you down.
28:59This isn't a playground.
29:01It's a battlefield.
29:05Perfect.
29:06With this many cameras on me,
29:07I'll show them
29:08what a real superhero
29:09looks like.
29:12Found you,
29:13little rat.
29:20found it.
29:30Who's there?
29:32Who are you?
29:33A superhero?
29:34I've never seen you.
29:36When did the NEI
29:36start sending girls out?
29:38Lumina.
29:39Remember the name.
29:40Because I'll destroy
29:41every last lineback.
29:47A woman?
29:49The NEI must be desperate.
29:51What's wrong
29:52with being a woman?
29:53Women belong in the kitchen.
29:54But you?
29:55Wearing that tight suit
29:56playing superhero?
29:58Sweetheart,
29:59you're in the wrong place.
30:00We'll see about that.
30:06And here I thought
30:07you had something.
30:13Trying to protect
30:14those generators?
30:15Let's see how long
30:16you can keep it up!
30:18Don't celebrate just yet.
30:20I'm not done.
30:29You're strong.
30:31But you've already lost.
30:34My claws were coated
30:36in Wendigo neurotoxin.
30:39The harder you fight,
30:40the faster it spreads.
30:42You can't even lift
30:43your hand,
30:43can you?
30:48told you.
30:49Girls shouldn't play
30:50superhero.
30:51You coward.
30:53Poison!
30:54This is war.
30:56Anything goes.
30:57Should have stayed home
30:58and cooked dinner.
31:00No!
31:02Stop!
31:04Your fight is with me!
31:06Nova man?
31:14Brian?
31:15Why is he here?
31:16He can't see who I am,
31:18can he?
31:20It's her.
31:21The female superhero.
31:23Already on the floor.
31:25Can't even handle this much.
31:27Like I said,
31:28this is a man's job.
31:30Step aside, ma'am.
31:31Leave the fighting
31:32to the star sentinel.
31:33Ugh, that prick.
31:35Acting like he's
31:36the second coming.
31:38Whatever.
31:39Mission first.
31:41Don't pick a fight
31:41with him now.
31:43Star sentinel,
31:43listen to me.
31:44The backup generators
31:45are behind him.
31:46The OR and the ICU
31:48are running off it.
31:48Hit him all you want,
31:49just don't touch
31:50the generators.
31:52Stay out of my way,
31:52rookie.
32:02Did you hear me?
32:04The generators!
32:06Protect the generators!
32:07Get out of the way!
32:09This is a fight,
32:10not a repair job.
32:11God, women!
32:12Always in the way!
32:14No!
32:16Run!
32:22Run!
32:39Stop the generators!
32:42Stop the generators!
32:49Get out of the way!
32:50Beautiful work,
32:51Star sentinel!
32:52That punch did more
32:53for me than my whole tail!
32:55You...
32:56You absolute idiot!
33:04Generators are toast.
33:05Star sentinel,
33:06much obliged.
33:07Without that punch of yours,
33:09I couldn't have brought down
33:10the entire systems.
33:17You smash the generators yourself!
33:20Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
33:22Every soul in that ER
33:23will die because of you!
33:25The Wendogs, thank you!
33:27What did he say?
33:28The Star sentinel
33:29destroyed the generators?
33:30Folks, you heard it.
33:32A Wendigo member
33:32just claimed
33:33that the backup generators
33:34were destroyed
33:35by the Star sentinel himself.
33:38Every critical patient
33:40in this hospital
33:40will die.
33:52What's happening?
33:53The power's out!
33:55Nurse!
33:55Nurse!
33:56My dad's ventilator stopped!
33:58His ventilator stopped beeping!
33:59What happened
34:00to the generator?
34:01The generators are gone.
34:03Lumina,
34:04she's in trouble!
34:05You.
34:06I told you
34:07to get out of the way.
34:08If it wasn't for you,
34:10I wouldn't have hit
34:11those generators.
34:12Do you have any idea
34:13how many people
34:14are going to die tonight
34:14because of you?
34:15How the hell
34:16are you going to make this
34:17right?
34:21You.
34:22You're.
34:29Good thing I came prepared.
34:32Excuse me.
34:33Get your hands off me.
34:35Those eyes.
34:36Guys.
34:37Why do they look so familiar?
34:39Don't pin this on me.
34:40I told you to watch out.
34:42Hundreds of lives
34:43are on the line.
34:44Do you?
34:57Useless woman.
34:58More trouble than she's worth.
35:00Good riddice.
35:06No.
35:07Novaman.
35:08Lumina.
35:08Are you okay?
35:09That enhanced.
35:11He poisoned me.
35:12I can't move.
35:13Star Center.
35:14You're supposed to be a superhero.
35:16But when an explosion hits,
35:18you shield yourself.
35:19Did you forget what the cape's for?
35:24Here.
35:25Fast-acting antidote.
35:27Get it down.
35:30Emergency power's en route.
35:32But the ER patients,
35:34patients can't wait that long.
35:36Can you convert your light
35:38into electrical current?
35:39Your light is energy.
35:41It should be possible,
35:42in theory.
35:42But I can't promise.
35:45I'll try.
35:46If it means there's a chance
35:47they'll live,
35:48I'll do it.
36:09Power's back.
36:10Power's back!
36:12Continue.
36:13Cardiac suture.
36:14Second strand.
36:15Ready.
36:19It's the hero woman.
36:21She's powering it.
36:22She saved everyone.
36:24She's the real hero.
36:25She fixed what the stars surrender, Rick.
36:27He's a freaking joke.
36:30Citizens,
36:31I have the situation under control.
36:33Please.
36:33Under control?
36:34The lizard guy said it himself.
36:35You're the one
36:36who smashed the generators.
36:37Yeah!
36:38He's right.
36:40Yeah!
36:41You always screw everything up
36:42and make someone else fix it.
36:43She saved your ass.
36:44If you can't do it,
36:45step aside!
36:47Folks,
36:48Star Centiel has just emerged
36:49from the generator building
36:50and is now in the plaza.
36:51As you can see,
36:52the public reception is hostile.
36:55I get it.
36:56You're angry.
36:57But I'm a superhero.
37:00My duty is to protect this city.
37:02Protect what?
37:03Tell us,
37:03what did you protect tonight?
37:05Yeah!
37:06Oh!
37:09You almost killed
37:10hundreds of people.
37:11If those two heroes
37:12hadn't covered for you,
37:12who knows what could have happened?
37:14Some sentinel you are!
37:15You're just a fraud!
37:16Go home!
37:17Fraud!
37:18Fraud!
37:19Fraud!
37:19Shut all of you,
37:21you ignorant fools!
37:22What could you possibly understand?
37:27Everyone, please.
37:28The situation is contained.
37:30Emergency power is back on.
37:32The hospital is stable.
37:33You're safe.
37:34Yes!
37:35You're our hero!
37:36Our superhero is here!
37:38No!
37:40Superhero?
37:41You mean,
37:41me?
37:43Miss,
37:43are you a new enhanced?
37:44Are you the first female superhero?
37:46What's your name?
37:48Just call me Lumena.
37:51Who we are?
37:52Who we are?
37:53Who we are?
37:54Female superhero?
37:56Yeah, right.
37:58She steals my credit,
37:59rides my coattails.
38:02Oh, sweetheart.
38:03This isn't over.
38:09One story's taken over the country today, folks.
38:11Who is she?
38:12Last night,
38:13in the rescue mission at Downtown General,
38:15an undenified, enhanced woman
38:17made her debut.
38:19Her codename?
38:20Lumena!
38:21For 10 years,
38:22this field has been dominated by men.
38:25With Lumena,
38:26that changes.
38:27She's proving everyone wrong.
38:30Finally,
38:30it's time for Superwomen 2.
38:35Superwoman?
38:36She just gets all the credit?
38:38I'm the one who hit that lizard.
38:41I'm America's protector.
38:43She just stole my moment.
38:50And you,
38:51faking your death?
38:53Bunch of ungrateful backstabbers.
38:55Enjoy it while it lasts.
38:57She'll slip eventually.
38:59And when she does,
39:00they'll remember who the real hero is.
39:03They'll come crawling back to me!
39:06Star Sentiner,
39:07after last night's incident at Downtown General,
39:10the committee has decided to sanction you for gross misconduct.
39:14What?
39:14What did I do?
39:15On what grounds, Zoe?
39:17You will be suspended for one month,
39:20during which you will not take any missions
39:22or appear in public in the Star Surventil uniform,
39:25nor use any superpowers.
39:27Return your uniform and equipment to HQ in 24 hours.
39:31Suspended?
39:32I save people every day.
39:34Without me, this country falls apart!
39:36Two.
39:37Before the suspension lifts,
39:38you must publish a written public apology
39:40through official channels.
39:41Three.
39:42All public appearances are temporarily prohibited
39:45during your suspension.
39:46On what grounds?
39:47I said it before!
39:49I did nothing wrong!
39:50Save it.
39:51The decision is final.
39:55Oh, one more thing.
39:57Rachel's funeral is in three days.
39:59It will be at HQ.
40:01All enhanced are required to attend.
40:03Skip, and you'll get worse sanctions.
40:05The NEI is hosting her funeral?
40:09You don't mean...
40:10Rachel really...
40:13Enough, Zoe.
40:15You and Rachel having fun with this?
40:18Dragging NEI into your little stunt?
40:23They won't play along.
40:24I'm not playing, Brian.
40:26Dr. Rachel Warren wasn't just an NEI researcher.
40:28She was the most important one we had.
40:31At the funeral,
40:31the company will publicly disclose her identity
40:33as the founder of our gene activation serum.
40:37Every enhanced will be there to honor her.
40:40Founder?
40:40Rachel built the serum, sure.
40:42But she left the company five years ago.
40:45No way the agency's gonna go that far for her now.
40:48We'll see.
40:49Funerals in three days.
40:51Show up.
40:52Decide for yourself.
40:56Fine.
40:58Three days?
40:59I'll go.
40:59And expose your stupid game.
41:04That asshole!
41:06I hate him!
41:09Don't bother getting angry over him.
41:12How can I not?
41:14Listen to him.
41:15He still thinks this is all some prank!
41:20He's paving his own downfall.
41:22Whether he shows up to the funeral or not,
41:25I'm done holding back.
41:26Every superhero and reporter is going to find out
41:29about his secret marriage and affair.
41:32His reputation is about to go up in flames.
41:36Come pay your respects to the wife you destroyed.
41:44I'm sorry, Lumina.
41:46You went through hell.
41:47Am I being too cruel?
41:49Faking my own death?
41:51Ditching my husband?
41:53Orchestrating his public downfall?
41:55Most people would call me heartless.
41:57Lumina, I pulled you out of that rubble.
41:59He left you to die.
42:01There is nothing too cruel for someone like that.
42:06So I'm doing the right thing?
42:08Your only mistake was waiting five whole years.
42:10I'd have walked on day one.
42:14Thanks, Nova Man.
42:15For what?
42:16I'm your partner.
42:17I've got your back.
42:19And I'm an Enhanced too.
42:21I owe you.
42:23Without you, Dr. Warren,
42:25there wouldn't be a Nova Man.
42:26Let me reintroduce myself.
42:28Jackson Reed.
42:29Reporter, Metro Daily.
42:30Three years ago, I went to cover the Enhanced program,
42:32but ended up in the headlines myself.
42:34Rachel Warrantz,
42:35former lead researcher for National Enhanced Initiative.
42:38Five years ago, I gave up everything for a man.
42:40Now I'm taking it all back.
42:43Nova Man really is a step up from that arrogant narcissist.
42:46Is that love I see?
42:51What did you say?
42:54Nothing.
43:05It's already five minutes past.
43:06Why haven't we started yet?
43:07Heard we're still waiting on a key person.
43:09But the CEO's here.
43:10Who could be more important than that?
43:13All right.
43:14Book the Memorial Hall.
43:15Nice.
43:15Now bring Rachel out, Zoe.
43:18Ice braid?
43:22Fire wing?
43:24And the director of the NEI?
43:27You're all here?
43:29Wait.
43:31Wait, this...
43:32This is real?
43:35Brian, late to a funeral?
43:38And in your uniform?
43:39You're on suspension.
43:40Wow.
43:42Impressive.
43:42Truly.
43:43You got all the executives, heroes, and even the press?
43:47So what's the plan when Rachel suddenly comes back to life, huh?
43:50Brian.
43:51Rachel is dead.
43:52She's not coming back.
43:54You're standing in front of her casket.
43:56Can you just show some respect?
43:59Zoe, your acting's really getting better and better.
44:02Hear that, fire wing?
44:04I know Rachel put you all up to this.
44:06And I'll admit, I almost bought it.
44:09You win.
44:10Okay?
44:11Now bring Rachel out.
44:12Game's over.
44:14Brian, that really isn't funny.
44:15What is wrong with you?
44:16Bro.
44:17I'm telling you, don't fall for their pathetic little act.
44:20Rachel can't be dead.
44:21I know this is a sham funeral.
44:23The casket, the hall, all theater.
44:27Since the star Centelner is so sure this is fate, let's just open the casket.
44:32See for ourselves.
44:34What do you say, Centelner?
44:37Now that is an idea I can get behind.
44:43Then I'll just open it, right, Zoe?
44:48Time to end your games.
44:52Nice prop.
44:55No, no, no, that body, that's Rachel?
45:00Now do you believe us?
45:04No, I don't.
45:06You probably grabbed some crash, Dommy.
45:09It's all makeup.
45:10How could anyone tell what that is?
45:12Where's Rachel?
45:13Bring her out.
45:14This isn't funny anymore.
45:16Brian, if you can't recognize Rachel, maybe you'll recognize this.
45:23Rachel.
45:24That's Rachel's wedding ring.
45:25It's really, it's really her.
45:29Rachel Warren.
45:30I survived.
45:33Will you marry me?
45:35I'll protect you for the rest of my life.
45:41Woo-hoo!
45:52Rachel!
45:56Wake up!
45:58Wake up!
45:59How could you die?
46:01How dare you?
46:03How dare you leave me?
46:05What?
46:07How could you, how could you die?
46:10Brian, how little did I matter that this is what it took for you to finally regret?
46:24I'm okay.
46:26What's up with the Sentinel?
46:28A second ago, he was going on about how Rachel and Zoe were teaming up to prank him, and now
46:33he's a wreck?
46:33The second he saw the ring, he lost it.
46:36What kind of colleague falls to his knees, sobbing at a funeral?
46:43Do you think they were secretly married?
46:46Do you think they were secretly married?
46:49Star Center.
46:52Last chance.
46:53Are you going to say it, or am I?
46:55Say it?
46:56Tell them I was secretly married to Rachel for five years?
46:59Tell them I went to Chloe's tour opener on our anniversary night and flew her around in my arms?
47:03In front of every camera in America?
47:06If I say it, I'm finished.
47:08I'll lose everything.
47:10Rachel.
47:12Rachel was just a researcher who worked with me during my activation.
47:17My...
47:18Close friend.
47:24If you won't tell the truth, Sentinel, I will.
47:28Zoe!
47:29Nova man!
47:30What the hell, man?
47:32And Zoe, shut up!
47:33Ladies and gentlemen,
47:36I'm here to speak for Dr. Rachel Warren.
47:40But first,
47:43there's something the Star Silteener won't admit.
47:46So I'll say it.
47:48Rachel Warren calibrated the gene sequence that turned the Star Center into a superhero.
47:53But for five years after,
47:55she was also married to the Star Center,
47:58Brian Warren!
48:01Star Sentinel was secretly married for five years?
48:05And his wife's body is in that casket?
48:07Then he and Chloe are having an affair?
48:10The wedding was never made public.
48:12He erased her from every NEI project.
48:15He turned a leading researcher into a housewife.
48:18She gave him
48:21every anything.
48:22So it was Rachel Warren's research that built every superhero in this country,
48:26and her own husband erased her from the record?
48:28Three nights ago,
48:29on their wedding anniversary,
48:32he went to Chloe's concert,
48:33kept his arms around her the whole night.
48:36Rachel saw,
48:37went for a drive to clear her head.
48:39Then,
48:39the accident.
48:40She burned alive in that car.
48:43And he was denying her death?
48:45I fought beside him for years.
48:47Never once did he mention a wife.
48:49Not on once!
48:50Of course he wouldn't.
48:52How else could he stay America's most eligible bachelor?
49:00It's over.
49:01Everything I had
49:03is finished.
49:06Shut up!
49:07Fine.
49:08I'll admit it.
49:09Rachel and I, yes.
49:10We were married for five years, secretly.
49:13But so what?
49:15I'm a superhero!
49:16I protect this country!
49:18I sacrifice!
49:19Protecting the country?
49:21You didn't even know when your own wife died.
49:23That was an accident!
49:24How is that on me?
49:26And as for Chloe,
49:27that was just for show.
49:29I needed her to fix my approval ratings.
49:31She needed me as a bodyguard.
49:32That's it.
49:33Nothing happened.
49:33Nothing?
49:35You held her in your arms
49:36and flew her around the stadium
49:38for ten minutes
49:40on her opening night!
49:41The whole internet was watching!
49:44Nothing happened?!
49:45That was theater!
49:47You don't know a damn thing!
49:49Rachel drove off on her own
49:51and crashed!
49:52How is that my fault?!
49:54What did you say?!
49:55She was Rachel Warren!
49:56Founder of the Gene Activation Serum!
49:59She carried a hundred times
50:00the pressure you ever did.
50:02I used to think you had some decency.
50:04Brian Warren,
50:06you don't deserve to be here.
50:08Or say her name.
50:10You don't deserve to stand here
50:12in front of her closet.
50:15Fine, I'll go!
50:19Brian, how does it feel
50:20to be hated by everyone?
50:23Abandoned by the world?
50:25Sound familiar?
50:29Rachel.
50:30Rachel, how could you die?
50:32How could you actually die?
50:35If you're dead,
50:36who's gonna iron my super suit?
50:38Or cooks me steak?
50:39Who's gonna wait at home for me?
50:41Rachel, do you hear me?!
50:43Shit!
50:52Chloe?
50:53What are you-
50:58Is what they said on the news true?
51:01You're gonna leave me too,
51:03aren't you?
51:05Everything they're saying is true.
51:07I'm the asshole who abandoned
51:08his wife for fame.
51:09Go announce whatever
51:10to save yourself.
51:11Just leave.
51:16I don't care.
51:17I don't care what somebody says.
51:19I don't care what anybody says.
51:21So you were married?
51:22So what?
51:23Your wife is dead.
51:25Dead.
51:26There's nothing in our way anymore.
51:28We can be together.
51:29Out in the open.
51:30You hear me?
51:31Out in the open!
51:34I don't care what anybody says.
51:35Chloe, do you hear yourself?
51:37The whole country is screaming at me.
51:40Being with me makes you public
51:41and you're number one.
51:43I don't care.
51:44I just want you to love me.
51:45That's enough.
51:58No.
51:59I can't.
52:01I'm not in the house Rachel lived in.
52:02It's okay, Brian.
52:03I can wait.
52:04Chloe, thank you.
52:05I thought everyone had walked away.
52:07I thought you would too.
52:09I never thought you'd go this far for me.
52:11Does it hurt?
52:16No.
52:19You've been through so much, Brian.
52:21I'm here now.
52:22Sleep.
52:29It took you long enough.
52:31Ugh.
52:31The sacrifices I make.
52:44With this, I'll be able to open every top secret lab in the NEI.
52:49Thanks, Sentinel, for thinking with her dick.
52:58Shame your research.
52:59Your wife is dead.
53:02Wendo could have gotten my mom out of her.
53:05Goodbye, Sentinel.
53:06You're no longer needed.
53:20Chloe?
53:21She's probably got work.
53:22She's the biggest pop star in the country.
53:24Yeah, of course she is.
53:26Brian, get it together.
53:29For her.
53:31Emergency.
53:31All enhanced report to HQ.
53:33Headquarters is under attack.
53:35This is not a drill.
53:36The NEI headquarters are under attack?
53:44Movement near the basement labs.
53:46Who's down there?
53:53Iris verification required.
53:58Iris verified.
53:59Star Sentinel.
54:00Top level access granted.
54:02Perfect.
54:04The NEI's most classified, all in here.
54:07There you are.
54:09Finally.
54:10With the NEI's gene activation serum,
54:13I can become an enhanced too.
54:14I can become an enhanced too.
54:23Lumina!
54:26Chloe, you're part of Wendigo?
54:30Grab her.
54:43You're in Wendigo, but you were hurt in the rubble that day.
54:46Did Wendigo turn you because you got close to the Sentinel?
54:50You're sharp, but wrong order.
54:53I marked him first.
54:55Wendigo's first assignment for me was him.
54:58An egotistic Gnosticist.
55:00Probably the easiest superhero in the world to play.
55:03Want to know what we call him in-house?
55:05The Gap.
55:06That blast.
55:07That was your people.
55:09The whole thing was a setup.
55:11Without a near-death meat crush,
55:14how would the Sentinel get to play hero?
55:15Even yesterday, played that idiot like a fiddle.
55:19Got his irie scan, strolled in.
55:21Wendani's been building up to this for years.
55:25Now we finally cash in.
55:31If I'd known all those years ago,
55:33I never should have fought!
55:36And now you've shown the world
55:37that women can survive gene activation.
55:40So I'll take your serum
55:42and take Wendigo's top seat.
55:44No matter how brilliant you are,
55:47you'll never beat me.
55:52We'll see about that.
56:05Star Sentinel here!
56:06Stand down or I won't go easy!
56:10Help me!
56:11I was on a shoot.
56:12Lumina dragged me here,
56:13said I'd seduce you,
56:14said she was avenging Rachel.
56:15Star Sentinel, please!
56:17Save me!
56:20Don't believe her!
56:21She's part of Wendigo!
56:23Last night she stole your iris!
56:24The door to this whole lab
56:26opened on your retinal!
56:28Open your goddamn eyes!
56:29She's still acting!
56:31Sentinel, you said you'd protect me!
56:34You said!
56:37Lumina, you dragged a civilian into combat?
56:40And you call yourself a hero?
56:42Brian Warren, you absolute idiot!
56:45How are you still falling for it?
56:50Sentinel, I just heard them.
56:52They're after the serum Lumina.
56:54Yeah, she's protecting it.
56:56If you take it,
56:57she can fight without holding back.
56:58She wasn't kind to me.
57:00But humanity needs you.
57:01Help her.
57:04No!
57:05Star Sentinel!
57:10You're much kinder than she ever was.
57:21Finally!
57:25Sentinel!
57:26What the fuck are you?
57:28Chloe!
57:28Catch!
57:29Get to cover!
57:34Serum's safe.
57:35Let's finish them together.
57:36Did you not hear a single word I just said?
57:38Did laser vision finally fry your brain?
57:40You just handed the serum to the enemy,
57:42you absolute fucking moron!
57:44Can't you just set aside your differences
57:46and work together?
57:52Truly, Brian.
57:54Without you,
57:55I wasn't getting this visal.
57:57Chloe,
57:58what are you saying?
58:00Give me that visal!
58:02Give me that visal!
58:07Chloe!
58:09Get down!
58:10They're terrorists!
58:11This is dangerous!
58:12Sentinel,
58:13are you still not getting it?
58:16I know your best quality!
58:19Sheer stupid-y!
58:22Once you decide something,
58:25you won't listen to anyone!
58:28Soon,
58:29I'll be the next enhanced woman!
58:34I'll superpass Lumna!
58:36Become Wendigo's strongest weapon!
58:39To exterminate you all!
58:41You're...
58:42part of Wendigo?
58:43And it took you this long to figure it out?
58:46Dumbass.
58:49The serum.
58:50She stayed by my side this whole time,
58:53waiting for me to drop my guard,
58:55to hit HQ.
58:58Brian!
58:58You absolute idiot!
59:01You destroyed everything!
59:06You...
59:09Rachel...
59:11You...
59:12You're alive!
59:14You...
59:14You are Lumina!
59:15You are Lumina!
