Dave, what are you doing?

I'm looking for the aloe iodine.

It's not here. Yeah, because that's not where it is.

Can you give me 12 seconds and I will come and get it for you? 12 seconds is

specific.

Wow, these are very expired.

Hmm. Okay. Betadine.

Chlorectadine. No iodine.

Oh. Right.

Thanks.

But... Well, that's not... We tried for two years. I know.

I know, babe.

And we don't even talk about it anymore.

Talking was not the important part.

It wasn't going to be for us, and we were okay with that. We were okay,

Well... This

is better.

It's a lot better, isn't it? It's great.

Obviously, we're going to need protocols to account for our cell mutations.

Read. Read.

We can do this.

Okay?

I really want to do this.

I really want to do this.

And what?

Nothing is going to change.

Of course not.

Ladies and gentlemen.

We welcome you to a very special event, celebrating four years of the Fantastic

Four. And now, your host for the evening, Ted Gilbert.

Well now, folks, folks, we all know the story.

Four brave astronauts head up into space, encounter a bit of cosmic

and come back forever changed. Not just the molecules of their bodies, but also

their place in our hearts.

And now, a look back.

Four years ago, man and woman conquered the last frontier as we know it, the

exploration of space.

The best pilot in the world right here. Yeah.

Best looking, he means.

It was my mission, space exploration.

I assembled the best scientific minds to come along, who also happened to be my

best friend, my wife.

And my brother -in -law.

Coms, check. Everybody sound off.

Check. Check, check.

Check. Coms are alive.

That last voice you just heard was my baby brother, Jonathan Storm. And

he is very single.

Kiss for luck.

Check.

However, Dr.

Richards' expedition encountered an unforeseen event.

A change not only the lives of these courageous individuals.

But also the course of our history.

Obviously,

while we were in space, due to errors on my part, we

encountered a cosmic storm that altered our DNA.

We came back with anomalies.

And they returned with superpower.

They became our protectors.

It's clobbering time!

I was at the opening of the Pan Am Tower when Mole Man attacked.

The Fantastic Four paved my life.

Mole Man's

attempt to steal the Pan Am building was thwarted by the Fantastic Four.

It's all Reed Richards' fault. Him and his endless pursuit of progress.

Power to the underground!

Now when the mad binker tried to sabotage New York City, the Fantastic

came to our rescue.

Gotcha!

Have a great day!

They defeated Red Ghost and his super apes.

They became our inspiration.

This equation not only confirms alternate dimensions, but it suggests

Earth exists on different dimensional planes.

Who wants to see a big explosion?

And they became our leaders.

Sue Storm brokers peace deal with Harvey Moleman Elder, leader of the

underground nation Subterranea. I don't trust surface dwellers. I never have.

But I do trust Sue.

We have come together today to form a new charter, the Future Foundation.

All participating countries agree to dismantle their armed forces.

And on this fourth anniversary, we celebrate them. They are the very best

They are the Fantastic Four.

Thank you, Fantastic Four.

Thank you, Fantastic Four.

We love you, Fantastic Four. I love you, Johnny. We love you. Thank you. Thank

you, Fantastic Four. Thank you, Fantastic Four.

We are proud to call them our guides, our protectors, and our friends. Let's

hear it for Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben.

I must say, that was all a bit of grandizing.

Herbie! Herbie with the Herb. How's that sauce looking?

Don't do that. Wash your hands first.

I was on my gloves the whole time.

You try that.

Okay.

Okay. Is this guy good?

That is fantastic.

It's incredible.

Stop. Don't do that.

Don't do that. It's not quite done.

No. It's not quite done. No, it could be done, but I'm going to add a little

more garlic. Not because it's not delicious. I just want to add a little

zip. Okay?

What are you doing?

What do you mean, what am I doing?

I mean, you're going to ruin your appetite.

I'm hungry.

We're never late for Sunday dinner.

Should we wait?

I guess.

You're late.

What do you mean?

What do you mean? What do I mean? You're late for dinner.

Oh, yes, we are. Really? By a single minute. Yes, we were just... I put some

aloe iodine on my shoulder.

I do have a shoulder.

Why is that breakfast cereal on the dinner table?

Why are you being weird?

We're not being weird. Well, I'm doing that weird thing with your face.

Well, we don't know what you're talking about.

Are you pregnant?

Yes, yes, yes. How did you know that? I know, he just cannot keep a secret.

What? Really?

Yeah.

What?

You are going to be the best mom.

Oh, my God. And you are going to be the best dad. Just kidding. You are out of

your depth. But we, we're going to be the best uncles ever.

Okay, we should eat.

You're handling this well.

You know, I figured you'd be locked in your lab, drenched in a panic sweat.

I had that scheduled for later.

Countdown continues as the Fantastic Four prepare to welcome a new member to

family. Needless to say, preparations inside the Baxter building are well

underway.

All right, Herbie.

Let's start the baby prep.

Yancy's three bookies are putting the odds of a girl at four to five, but

chances of twins are a long shot.

The

oil

and gas cowboys want a minute to yell at you before you go on maternity leave.

Speaking of, co -lobby.

Lynn, when he sees Sue... Larry, I will tell her when I see her.

Thanks, Lynn.

The question on everybody's mind is, will the baby be born with superpowers?

Herbie, we need to scan the baby. The internal scan hasn't achieved the right

level of precession for clear imaging.

New deep space transmission.

Ah. Let's identify its origin.

Shall we record and file it?

215. What 215? I don't have any meetings today.

Oh, three.

Oh,

that 215. Thank you for making the time. Johnny, do we have to today?

I had some thoughts on the new suit design.

There are no new suit designs.

You finished them years ago.

They have dust on them.

I get it. You're going to be a father soon. New responsibilities.

You're a bit scared. I'm not scared. I'm busy, Johnny. I'm busy.

I'm busy.

There's a difference.

New transmission today.

Have you listened to it yet?

More of the same. It's a complex signal.

Knock yourself out.

Johnny, I'm running a test.

Cool.

I got time.

Bridge teleportation test.

Movement of organic matter, six meters.

Thank you, Herbert.

Let's run it.

It worked!

Johnny? Yup?

Could you reset the breaker?

Other way.

Babe? Babe, when you're done, can you... Hi.

Hello, Herbie. I,

um, I've just been by the nursery.

How's it looking?

Um, it's looking like Herbie's building the crib, which I kind of thought was a

huge deal.

Well, I built this instead.

Anyone can build a crib. Only I can build this. Anyone can build a crib, but

ours. Not for him.

This is for him.

Because unlike anyone else, his parents have cosmically compromised DNA.

Reed. Reed, we have done every test.

Well, not this one.

You want to see?

Fine.

Let's see.

There's nothing wrong with him.

He's absolutely perfect.

That fits a bullshit way to end an argument.

Happy Halloween. Happy Halloween.

Easy with the candy.

Hi, Ben. Hi, Heather.

Hey, Ben. How's Sue doing? She's getting close.

She was craving some Macy's cookies.

Hey, what time is it?

Say the thing. That's not really something I say.

It's covering time.

It's just in the cartoon.

Sorry, sir.

There he is. Hey, lift the car. You want me to lift up the car?

This car right here?

You guys are going to get me in trouble.

I'll try.

I can't do it. All right, I'll try one more time.

Throw it next time. That'll show them. No, no, no. It's okay.

I love kids.

Spend the day with ten fourth grade girls and you may begin to rethink that.

Rachel.

Rosamund. I'm Ben. I know.

You grew up near on Yantia.

Right there.

Oh, very near.

You know, it feels really good being back here.

I like that everything stays the same.

Like Maisie's?

The best. Yeah, the black and white cookies were always my favorite when I

kid. But I used to steal them back then.

Okay. Well, maybe step inside next time.

Kids would love to see you. Yeah, okay.

I will. I'll bring cookies.

Oh, yeah?

Okay.

I'll bring cookies.

Oh, sweet Jesus.

It doesn't matter how long you beat it.

You're not going to make a meringue if there's egg yolks.

The real question is, do you have some vinegar or not? I'm a vinegar guy. I

always have it.

Hey, why the long face?

What of it?

Sounds like your 215 with Reed didn't go well.

I'm sorry, pal.

Hey, I'm fine. You know, I don't mind. I hear you. We'll go to space together.

Yeah, we will.

Oh, nice.

Flame off.

Down. Fantastic Kitchen, down.

Stop it. I finished the crib. Stop. Included two extras. I don't know why.

No time. No, it's okay. This is me.

For the last few months, I've been tracking a small number of criminal

organizations.

A small number, huh? 47 of them, including the Puppet Master and the

The Wizard in Gramercy Park, and Diablo in Washington Heights.

You baby -proofed the world.

It's a sweet gesture.

It's a thorough gesture, but, uh, I like punching.

You mean clobbering? No, I mean punching.

Let's eat.

Hey, what time is it?

It's dinner time.

Get inside. You sure it's not clobbering time? Stop it.

Look at that.

Get back.

Out of the way. Get back. Out of the way. Get back.

Breaking news from Times Square. There appears to be an object in the sky. It's

green, raining down.

Are you the protectors of this world?

Yes, we are.

Your planet is now marked for death.

Your world will be consumed by the Devourer.

There is nothing you can do to stop him, for he is a universal force, as a

sensual as a star.

Hold your loved ones close.

And speak the words you've been afraid to speak.

Use this time to rejoice and celebrate for your

time is short.

I herald the beginning.

I herald your end.

I herald Galactus.

Scientists around the world are trying to verify the origin of this unknown

space creature.

You tracking? She's too fast to track, Jeff. She is too fast. But I'm tracking

where she's been.

What's a galactus, right?

And how do you consume a whole planet?

Here.

DA -773.

A planet in the Proxima Delphi system.

You ate that whole planet? Five planets, actually.

Five have disappeared, and I'm aware of.

There might be more that fit the pattern. And the pattern is what?

That they've been chosen with great care.

Targeted.

They're not just disappeared.

Destroyed.

Wait, you're saying these planets disappearing, that's connected to her?

Yes.

I've identified the Herald's energy signature and matched it to DA773.

She was there.

She was at all of them.

You're saying this Galactus?

Can do exactly what she says it can do.

How long to get Excelsior launch ready?

Either we go up there or Galactus comes here.

I don't know.

20 hours. The launch window is in 16.

Guys, like I said, 16 hours.

Hey, guys. I'll start the nav slot.

Hey, guys.

You want to buzz the prep team and I'll meet you down there.

She spoke to me. Harold, she spoke to me. She spoke to all of us, Johnny.

Galactus, devouring. Well, when I chased her, she spoke to me in her language.

What did she say?

Well, it was in her own language. I don't know.

Well, what were the context clues?

Context. Base.

And what was the tone?

Angry, threatening?

No, no, no, not at all. It was, uh, kind.

Kind? Not kind.

Warm. Warm. I don't know. It was, she was, like, right here.

And I was looking into her beautiful face, and I saw stars, and I could

see me in her face. She spoke to me, and she was kind of, um... Warm?

Kind.

Kind? No.

No, I get it.

Johnny loves space.

Johnny loves women.

Now there's a literal naked space woman.

And Johnny thinks they had a moment.

I doubt she was naked. It was probably a stellar polymer.

For the record, Ben loves when Johnny speaks in third person.

We need to get ready.

Okay, so he spoke to you yeah and There

are 23 of these The only repeated language and the

oldest recordings.

I don't know who they are what they're saying, but this This

is the same with her language Okay

Maybe that is something.

Reed wants to see you in the lab.

You summoned me.

I finally knocked it off the list.

What?

The new spacesuits.

Flame retardant.

Maxed out oxygen supply, but you have to monitor the gauge.

If you stay flamed on in zero atmosphere, you will burn through your

reserves in less than ten minutes. Oh!

I take back.

Every single bad thing I've been saying about you.

To myself.

In private.

Four years ago, we were dreamers.

Back then, the unknown meant adventure.

And mystery.

And discovery.

With faith.

The greatest mystery of all.

What we

learned was

that the unknown also meant fear and profound

radical change.

Johnny showed me the new suit.

It's pretty sniffy.

Especially compared to the old ones.

Oh, the old ones.

Weren't adequate.

Who could have known?

Me.

I could have known. Stop.

Please. You gotta stop beating yourself up about this.

You know, Stretch, I got bad news for you.

You ain't that smart.

I'm not sick I am that smart.

Oh, yeah? Can you cook?

It's more of an art, not a science.

Did you pass your driver's test?

It was due to poorly marked signage.

This Galactus, this Herald, they got no idea what they're up against.

So the four of us will return to space and face the danger waiting there.

And we will find this Galactus.

The second the engines fire everything you do from then on will be the first

time a pregnant woman has done them in the history of the world.

I know.

I really do.

It's really your old one. It's just a lot bigger.

Bluer. It is actually bluer. It's a little extra around the sides as well.

This is Excelsior launch control.

T -minus two hours, 37 minutes, 20 seconds.

Here we stand, prepared to face a danger that is unknown.

A danger that has threatened our home.

threatened our families, and threatened this planet.

The unknown will become known, and we will protect you.

We will protect you.

Final check and check, please.

10. Check.

Check. 12.

The Excelsior has liftoff.

Ladies and gentlemen,

we have a successful launch.

All of us on Earth, we wish you good luck and Godspeed.

Thank you for...

See you

tonight.

Approaching the FTL engine.

For my signal, Sue?

Yes. And three, two, one, mark.

And we are locked.

And clear for FDL navigation.

Faster than light in three, two, one.

and the Herald's energy signature tracks to this binary system here.

LHS 275, yes.

Where we find her, we find galactic.

Reed, what are we up against here? Some sort of a space dragon or something?

Cool. We don't know, but it's basic tactical science.

Observe, assess capabilities, have Herbie collect any liquid, gas, solid

materials, analyze his physiology.

Look, if he's just some big guy in a ship, then yes, you can punch him out.

Coming in on the dark side of the system's larger planet. Copy that. I'm

to take a set of FTO.

Okay, everyone.

Be prepared.

So where's this Galactus?

It's strange.

The Herald's heat signature is coming from inside the planet.

What the hell is happening to that planet?

Is there something alive down there?

Dropping us out of FTL!

Watch out!

Two hide -ups!

It's all gone.

The whole planet.

And it was 13 % larger than Earth.

Ben, stop responding. I'm locked out.

Kirby, try to stabilize the engine.

What's going on?

He's got us. Pulling us in.

Ben, save the engine.

Save the engine.

Johnny, your girlfriend's back.

Hi.

Galactus will see you.

I'll go.

All of you.

You should not have come.

Follow.

Get everything and collect samples.

What does Galactus want?

He doesn't want. He sees.

How does he choose which planets to consume?

He does not.

You choose.

Yes.

Uh, Johnny, what are you doing?

Look at the charmer.

So what do you say to me?

You threw me off your board.

What did you say?

It's a blessing.

It means die with yours.

Die with yours.

Last question.

So the surfboard, right? Is that part of your body, or is that...

Look,

he dumped you already.

No, it went well.

We stand before Galactus.

The Vower of Worlds, honored.

We are honored.

There was once little like you.

Billions of years ago.

A man from another world.

Before this relentless eternal hunger.

You have traveled far.

Yes.

To beg for mercy.

To talk.

You carry the power to save your world.

Yes, I believe we do.

Inside her, the child.

What the hell?

He hungers.

What does that mean?

I will spare your world.

In exchange for the boy.

What?

No. He possesses the power cosmic, and he will inherit this cursed

throne.

It's not true. He's normal.

We would know. I would know. I tested the child. He hides his nature from you.

No.

Now? You will not have our planet.

And you will never have our sun.

I will eat your planet slowly while your child watches.

parts of the body.

I'll get you home.

Get it to the FTL.

FTL in visual range.

I'm here, Sue. I'm here.

Surfer on our six.

Captain Gump.

And go where?

Anywhere. Just jump.

Herbie, I'm going to need your help stabilizing this thing.

We lost her. All clear.

She's still on us.

Johnny, kill her.

Really? Yeah, she wants to take your nephew.

Kill her! All right, all right.

Just when I finally met someone interesting.

The wormhole is bending the beast!

Reed, I can't get a lock on her!

All right, figure it out. Figure it out. Come on. Reed, what's the plan?

Johnny,

quit screwing around! Did I tell you how to drive the ship? Don't tell me how to

kill sexy aliens!

Stop calling her sexy!

I can't shake her. Working on it.

Slippery.

Drop it out of STL here.

That's a pretty big neutron star.

I know.

We're going to use it.

Isn't that basically a black hole?

Won't that kill us?

Digging this out.

What's the plan?

If you are close enough to the star, she'll get stuck in the gravity well.

There will be a time dilation. How much of a dilation? Is it more than mine?

It'll take her a month to break free.

Fixed in, Ben.

Reed, we could get sucked in.

Ben, trust me.

Hang on.

Chewing us up!

Get closer.

It's chewing us up!

A little closer.

Come on, Reed, what are we doing?

Duke, we need 30 seconds of invisibility. Can you do it?

After your next contraction.

We need to strap you down. Strapping her down? Do not strap me down!

Not strapping her down.

Baby, you need gravity to push.

This is not right. It's not how it's supposed to be. I know, I know.

But we're going to make it work.

You're doing wonderful, my love.

We don't have enough juice to get home.

No, we do not.

I could slingshot around the star, draft off its orbital momentum.

We need to get to .88 speed of light.

Free! Johnny, the velocity gain.

On it.

Don't go, don't go.

I'm right here.

We're getting slingshot.

Here we go.

Coming up on .82.

On your mark, Johnny.

What? What do you want to take him for? What's wrong with him? There's nothing

wrong with him. You don't know. You don't know that. I do know. No, you

You know everything, but you don't know that. What if he's a monster? He's not a

monster.

Everything's going to change.

Nothing's going to change.

I promise you. You can't, you can't roll this back. You can't roll this back.

He's coming.

He's coming. Give me that.

One, eight, four, five, six, seven, eight.

Two.

Yes, you can.

Point eight, five. Ready, four, two, three, push.

Point eight, six. Push, push.

That's good.

Point eight, seven.

March. Ben, Herbie.

Ben,

help.

Rusters engaged.

After a month -long return trip, the Fantastic Four are finally home and

receiving a warm welcome.

Oh

my

God, it's unbelievable.

Lynn, we're going to need... Come this way.

They're ready for you. Step up.

Just keep it brief.

I'm sorry, we don't have a prepared statement.

One at a time, please. One at a time. Connor.

Welcome back. Could you take us through how you defeated Galactus?

How we... We didn't.

Not yet.

Not yet, we didn't.

Follow up!

What do you mean you didn't?

We attempted to negotiate, but Galactus...

He asked too high a price.

What did he want? What did he ask?

He asked for our child.

He said, give us your child, and I will spare the earth.

We said no, obviously.

We said no.

We're going to circle back to what DJ was saying. You said no.

Could giving Galactus the child save us?

Josh, answer this. Answer this.

Are we safe?

Are we safe?

I don't know.

What do you mean you don't know?

You don't know.

I must get the child.

But he's just a baby.

He is a being of infinite power.

One strong enough to absorb my hunger.

So that I may finally rest.

How much time do we even have? What do we do when he gets here? What about the

ship? We blast it, problem solved. You can't blast it. Conventional weapons

won't work. So we run. We run. Draw him away from Earth. We're faster than him,

right? Not faster than the Herald. Well, we've got a head start. Yeah, but

that's all we got.

And then he could still eat the Earth anyways.

Reed, you want to take us through what you have?

What I have?

Yeah.

What I have is nothing.

Nothing. Is it nothing? I analyzed the samples Herbie took from Galactus's

All evidence suggests he predates our universe, our reality.

It could take ten years to understand his composition, let alone his

Are you talking about a god? I'm talking about something beyond our experience.

An unknowable life who imagines Franklin as his successor and possessing some

kind of cosmic power.

That can't be true.

You ran all those tests, right? I have, but I don't know what can or cannot be.

I'm not sure how long. I'm not sure of anything.

I have nothing. I have nothing.

If we could solve something, any link in the chain.

E is the effort force.

R is the lever arm connected to the effort.

L is the load. R is the lever arm connected to the load.

Archimedes, the law of levers.

Give me a lever and a place to stand and I will move the earth.

We need a lever. You want to translate that? Yeah, we solved the right small

problem. We solved the big galactus one. Yes.

Yes. All right, boys. Let's go look for levers. Yep.

You're supposed to sleep when the baby sleeps.

I've been reading the book.

He thinks the baby absolutely sleeps.

I've got to show you something.

What do you want to show me? It's really good.

I'm sorry to hear that. No, I'm like you chose this whole thing, being a mother,

you know. Sit down. Good. I've got to show you.

Trust me.

All right. It smells.

It's pheromones. Relax.

All right.

Racking back the helmet, Kim.

It's a blessing.

It means die with yours.

Told you I'd heard that before.

Now, we have a sentence translated, and we can use that to figure out what all

of this means.

I mean, we could build an algorithm, and then... His big brain is busy.

I'm all over this.

But Betheta Stone defines him in our comedic leather.

See?

I can reference old stuff, too.

Fantastic Four has verified that an unknown spacecraft, believed to be

has just passed Jupiter.

Financial institutions remain closed as angry protesters take to... The newly

formed Galactus cult intends to summit Mount Everest.

Tempers boiled over in central London today, breaking out in violence as the

whole world wonders what is to be our fate.

Hey, what about us?

We got families too.

Guys, it's getting bad out there.

It seems to me they have no plan for Galactus. We as a society have to reckon

with the idea that the Fantastic Four could save us today, but they choose not

to. The idea is simple.

Reed Richards and Sue Storm hand over their baby and we all live. One life.

They're scared. Who isn't scared?

Dad.

It's scary.

Why?

They can't hurt us.

It's scary because they hate us.

They think they might die and they hate us for it and they hate Franklin.

And they may be right because right now we don't have a workable plan.

The clock is ticking.

So their plan looks good. It's mathematical, it's ethical, and it's

What are you saying?

I'm not saying anything.

Now Ben's wrong.

There's always people that can hurt you.

Sue, please hear me.

I would never give him up to Galactus. I would never do that.

Mathematical? Ethical? Available?

This is so easy for you to say that. It means nothing.

It means I know you. I know how your brain works. It means you've thought

it. It means you've rolled it around in your head and you've worked the problem.

Which means nothing.

It is my job to think terrible things so that terrible things don't happen. It's

not your job, Reed.

That's you.

You're right, it is me.

I don't dream, I don't wonder.

I invite the worst possible thing into my head to figure out how to hurt them

before they hurt anybody else. And you know what? Sometimes, sometimes you

you hurts me.

Well, I don't mean to.

Listen, I am going to solve this. I'm going to make it right.

We don't know what he is or what he might become.

But I am not giving him up.

I wanted to introduce you to someone.

This is our son, Franklin.

There's been a lot of talk about him.

Most of you know me.

You know my story.

When Johnny and I were kids, our parents were in a car crash.

Our dad was driving and he lived, but our mom didn't.

I know what it's like to be part of a family that was torn apart.

Our dad, he wasn't always a great father, but he wanted to be. He did his

He wanted us to be together because that's what family is.

It's about fighting for something bigger than yourself.

It's about connecting to something bigger than yourself.

It's about having something bigger than yourself.

And the four of us, the four of us already do because we have you.

You know, our mom always used to say, Susie, for you, I would move heaven and

earth.

And we would do that for you.

I will not sacrifice my child for this world.

But I will not sacrifice this world for my child.

We will face this together.

We will fight this together.

And we will defeat this together.

As a family.

As a family.

Archimedes.

The law of levers.

Give me a lever and a place to stand and I will move the Earth. We are going to

move Heaven and Earth.

Well, just Earth.

You?

You solved it.

I did?

Yes. We are going to move Earth to a place that Galactus will never find us.

How?

Well, we already have the lever.

The bridge.

The bridge is a prototype. You moved an egg across the room.

You think you can do that with a planet?

We are out of options. We have to make it work. We will make it work.

Heaven and Earth.

We interrupt this program with a special report.

And now an announcement from Reed Richards.

As you're about to see, we've solved the physics of teleportation.

Kirby?

The difference between a planet and an egg is only scale.

Starting immediately, we will create teleportation bridges spanning the

They will be synchronized and interconnected, capable of transporting

to a new solar system within a 2 % margin of the inhabitable zone.

But, more importantly, away from Galactus, where he won't be able to find

millions of years.

Time is not on our side.

I'm reaching out to the world with a list of materials that we need in bulk.

Plutonium -239.

All right, people. Like my old man used to say, if you don't know what to do,

pick up a shovel.

Fire it up. We've got bridges to build. Let's go.

The last 36 hours have seen an historical mobilization of

every country working together.

in a way the world has never seen before.

With Galactus' ship deep within our solar system and the Fantastic Four's

Mary in the balance, we are calling on every helping hand.

If you can do something well, now you can do it for your planet.

We are getting... reports that Galactus has passed Mars.

Kirby, record.

It takes too much power.

I only got this to work by tripling my intake, which strained the New York City

grid in two seconds. To do this, there isn't enough power in the world. I'd

to turn off every light switch on the planet.

For how long?

Factoring in, we gotta keep building bridges.

How long would we need to conserve power?

Sacrifices will be made.

We all need to conserve power at a scale never attempted before.

Quite right, Herbie.

All the power.

The worldwide energy curfew only works if everybody does their part to conserve

electricity.

Ooh, missed a spot.

Yeah, curfew Friday.

Now I look like an idiot.

Bear could be cool.

Seriously?

I built this to see what you look like.

You see, most fathers want their sons to look exactly like them, inside and

out.

But I don't want you to be like me.

There's something wrong with me, always has been.

The more I look at you,

the less I know.

And the less I know, the more scared I am.

So you know what?

I'm not going to look anymore.

I'm going to let you tell me who you are.

And if you'd like to tell me now, that would be helpful.

Especially if you're an all -powerful space god.

I'd like to know that sooner rather than later, if you don't mind.

Oh, no.

You're busy peeing.

You're a very good boy.

Thanks, bud.

Coming, coming, coming.

Guys, I am on to something.

Moving a planet here, Johnny. Yeah, Johnny.

It's four.

Fantastic four.

Let's move a planet.

Cool beard.

You mean that?

Thank you.

Copy, Deli.

Let's do this. London, stand by. Yes, copy, London.

Copy, Paris.

Lima, do you copy? Copy, Rome.

Copy, Deli.

Copy, Vienna.

Copy, Proz. Chicago, standby.

Copy, Chicago.

Earth, go for countdown.

Here we go, folks.

Go.

20. 90.

80.

70.

60.

Nine. Eight.

Sit.

What is that? What's up?

for this bridge.

No.

They told me for Franklin.

Oh my God. Lock the building down!

Wait.

Where's Johnny?

Thank you.

How do you know that name?

And how did you get these?

How?

He barely has a grasp of the English language.

23 transmissions.

All in your language.

Trace back to the planet and law Your home

They were looking for you to thank you

Once I translated one phrase I piece together enough language to understand

a part of your history You were some sort of scientist or strong

When Galactus came you offered to serve as his Scout If you could spare your

planet, was it to spare your family?

We turned you into this.

Shalabal. Those were messages from the one planet Galactus spared.

Your planet.

These planets weren't so lucky.

How many do you remember, Shalabal?

Proxima Delphi?

Sagus? Do you remember Polaris?

They begged for mercy.

You brought Galactus to all of these planets, and now you're bringing him

to my home, to my family!

I'm just trying to save my world, you know.

Like you did.

They'll give him the child.

If he was older, he would do it himself.

Like I did.

Take me.

Take me.

Not the boy.

Let me.

Then stay and help us.

There is no help.

Take the time and leave this doomed place.

Maybe you'll live long enough to forgive yourself.

Johnny, that was incredible.

Johnny, does it even matter?

You saved Franklin.

Instant move.

Reed?

We're not leaving, are we?

No, no, we're not.

We're not leaving.

Last time I was there.

We need to bring Galactus here.

I will come back to you. Call you back. Hold on.

Reed, we need Galactus to come here?

I feel like we just spent a lot of time trying to prevent that from happening.

Listen to me. We need to get him away from his ship. We need to bring him

to Times Square.

And then what? And then, instead of moving a planet away from one giant...

We move one giant away from the planet. If we route every power grid on the

eastern seaboard through our one last bridge, charged back up, we can keep the

portal open.

Four.

Thirty -seven seconds.

Thirty... Not a lot of time to throw a faith god off a planet.

No, it is not.

And where do we send him?

To the far edges of the universe. Without a ship, he'll be stranded.

How are we supposed to get Galactus to Times Square? How do we move one giant

through one large bridge?

I haven't figured that part out yet.

You have.

Have what?

We have to use the only thing Galactus wants.

No.

I'll think of another way. What are you talking about? You can't.

You can't think of another way. I will. There is only one way. What are you

talking about?

We have to use Franklin.

Yes.

You want to use the boy?

You want to use the boy as bait?

No. That's your plan? No. It's not my plan. It's our plan. It's the only plan.

It's not my plan. I hate that plan.

It's a bad plan. Come on. Terrible. That's a stupid plan. Why don't I just

through his ship? That's another plan. Read. That's insane. It's your kid we're

talking about. There's got to be a different way. I know. Sue.

Sue. I know. I know. I know!

things that ever built.

I feel terrifying now.

It can be beautiful again.

What do you think?

They've been gone a while.

Johnny, go check. See if they're back.

I'm in no rush to do that.

Well, I'm definitely not going to check. I'm definitely not going either. Thank

you for going and checking. You're welcome. It's the least I can do to say

you for going down and checking. I'm definitely not going down.

Don't tease us.

Don't do that. I hate it when you do that. Don't do that.

Come on.

Let's run through the details.

I don't like when she does that.

It's unsettling when people just appear like that.

Bomb proof, shock proof, radiation proof.

Princeton, we'll go here when Galactus arrives.

Hey, do we know what direction Galactus will be coming from?

Well, it could be from anywhere. But when he crosses those lines, we trigger

We're in the very center of the city.

We're surrounded by...

Miles of apartment building.

Any path he takes, he's going to be going through thousands and thousands of

families.

I got an idea you'll hate.

Oh.

My. Very advanced.

So, this must be where the sausage is made.

I think I prefer just trying to steal the sausage. Please don't touch.

No.

We'll fix that.

Hello there, little robot man.

Could you dim the lights for me, please?

Harvey, we wanted to ask you something.

And whatever it is, I would like him to ask me.

It's not Reed or me asking.

It's the entire planet asking.

Well, it wouldn't be the entire planet, now would it? Just the over part.

No, Mr. Elder. We've met Galactus. He'll eat the under part first. Well,

regardless.

Why don't you butter me up?

Spread it on.

Okay, mole man.

Mole man.

Harvey, that is enough. Take the mole out of it. That is enough. Mr. Elder to

you. Give us a minute. Give us a minute.

Yes, that's it.

Johnny, don't be mad. I didn't dress you.

Don't listen to him. You're handsome.

Harvey.

I'm sorry, Sue.

End of days.

We all got to learn how to laugh.

So what do you need?

Evacuation orders are in effect in the greater New York area.

Please report to subterranea.

Evacuation orders are in effect in the greater New York area.

Please report to subterranea.

Welcome to subterranea.

Hello there.

Welcome, sunshiners.

Yes, do me a favor and just wipe your feet upon entry.

I'm kidding. It's all dirt.

Please keep a move on.

Good evening.

We, the people of Earth, prepare for what could be our final moments.

The hours ahead may feel long.

But we must use them to support each other.

And we must hope.

We must dare to hope. Thank you, Ben.

We must use the time wisely to be with the ones we cherish.

Sorry. Hi.

Hey. Hey.

You're looking very distinguished.

I'm surprised to see you here. Did you come for spiritual guidance?

Oh, no, no.

I just came to see you.

I leave you tonight with these words.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can

Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.

This is.

Hey, don't cry.

I'll be back in a minute, okay?

Just a couple more steps.

Franklin!

Oh my God.

You are my salvation.

My deliverance from this vicious hunger.

Time to feed Eda.

Cut down my son!

Sue, stop.

Sue, stop. It's too much.

Get pressure.

Sue, stop.

Save our son.

Donnie, the control.

Tell Franklin Uncle Johnny loves him.

No. Sue. Sue.

Is she breathing? No.

No. No, baby. No. You stay with us. You stay with us, okay?

Stay with me, too.

Stay with us, baby. Stay with us, baby.

Come on, Sue.

Come on, Sue. Stay with us.

Don't leave us.

Sue!

Folks, we have so much exciting ground to cover today.

The last year, a lot has happened.

We have seen it with our own eyes, but tonight we're going to see it through

theirs. Our city, our country, our planet. There's nothing to be nervous

You know, you just stick with me. This thing will be done before we know it.

Obvious to say, but it is definitely worth talking about, is the fact that

early Way too early. That kind of stuff.

Can't even sit up without help. I did not have time to eat breakfast this

morning. If only I could eat a magic baby.

Who knows where his powers

will take him.

But right now, he's here.

What's that guy doing?

Explorers, heroes, citizens, or leaders, they continue to change, becoming

whatever we need them to be, whenever we need.

Ladies and gentlemen, just when you thought we couldn't love, admire, or

appreciate them any more than we do, and they're now 25 % more fantastic,

Reed, Sue, Johnny, Ben, and Franklin, the Fantastic Five.

Precious cargo coming through.

No, I set that already.

Let's get this car set.

Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. I've got to set it in first before you close it.

It's going to make that noise until you thread the belt under the chair when you

get it to the other side. You've got to feed it through the buckle.

Yeah, I'm doing it.

Well, I don't feel it.

You gotta thread it

through, connect it, and then pull the slack.

Just push from above.

Push from above.

Pull the slack!

Pull the slack and thread through!

I can't feel my hands. You from the left, you from above.

Three, two, one.

Oh! Yes! That's a good sound.

Okay, we're ready.

Herbie, have you seen the book that Franklin loves?

Not that one. We did that one yesterday, and I know he loved it.

Here.

See, we're going for something a little bit more fun today. Yeah?

Thank you.

We'll be right

back.

Because me.

today.

It's clobbering time!
