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