(MUSIC PLAYING)

Tony, any ideas how we're going to get out of this mess?

That copycat Android.

We have to find a vulnerability in its design.

Well, well, well. What a pathetic sight.

The all-powerful Avengers trapped like rats in a cage.

Must be humiliating?

How can I make you more comfortable?

For starters, you can back up a little.

Your giant head is making me dizzy.

Then you can tell me how Aim is creating this mist

and why you're inflicting these innocent people.

Pitiful. I'm just expanding on this new discovery.

Do tell.

When a new variable enters the equation,

MODOK always takes advantage.

Remember that, Tony Stark.

Of course.

This human-altering mist wasn't created by Aim,

you're just experimenting with it.

Your deduction took longer than expected,

but you're getting warmer!

So then the reason AIM kidnapped them was--

TONY STARK: To gather information on this mysterious mist.

If AIM didn't create that stuff, then who did? And why?

I need to sort this out.

(CHUCKLES)

MODOK: Does the other child have something to say?

I do. Just an observation.

Oh? Then let's hear this brilliant observation.

(SCOFFS) You're hard to look at.

Gross, right?

Offensive to be eye.

You will pay for this arrogance!

-(ALARM SOUNDING) -Huh?

-Our friends are here. -Impossible!

It's quite possible, actually.

No one tracked you down.

According to my calculations, radar cannot detect this place.

That's true, but I sent Makoto an alert,

using a method you couldn't possibly detect.

What was the probability of that happening, MODOK?

Even if they have made it here,

your friends would be greeted by my super adaptoid.

We take care of this guy.

Hurricane, Charade, go rescue Iron Man and the others.

Yes, sir.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Shield Throw!

Nice one, Cap!

Wait, is that a shield?

Looks like a cheap knockoff of this one.

No way.

That can't be possible.

(HULK GROANING)

(EVIL LAUGHING)

According to my calculations, even the rage

and strength of the Hulk cannot match the power

of my super adaptoid.

-This way. -Hey, wait for me.

That annoying talking garbage can.

I can't wait to wipe that smile off his arrogant face.

-They're here. -Huh?

You guys okay?

(EXPLOSION)

Have some wasp stings!

Huh?

It seems he's able to copy all of our moves and powers.

See if he can copy this.

Oh, no, don't do it.

He's going to replicate your attack.

(GROANS) Not if I could put him down first!

I've had enough.

It's unfazed.

Hulk, Fall back. You've got to stop!

(HULK GRUNTING)

WASP: Hulk, get away from it!

Now it makes sense.

I wondered how Iron Man and Thor could have been captured so easily.

They must have run into this thing.

(EVIL LAUGHTER)

It's MODOK.

MODOK: It would seem my calculations were correct.

My super adaptoid is the strongest

and most indestructible weapon in existence!

(HULK GRUNTING)

Switch to full power.

Let's make this even more interesting,

with my MODOK missiles.

(EXPLOSIONS)

It's fast, but I think I can get closer.

-Yeah. -We're free.

Thanks for the assist. Where are the others?

They're here, but they're fighting

this faceless robot thing.

They're sure to be having a tough time.

Let's go.

I'm right behind you.

(RINGING)

RADIO: Transmission. Incoming transmission.

Not a good time.

We're kind of in the middle of a situation.

I'll take a message then, no problem.

(EXPLOSION)

This is perfect.

The attack programming is working just as I expected.

Once again, MODOK's intellect prevails.

My chances of victory are increasing by the second.

Hey, genius.

Did you calculate for this?

Repulser!

Ah, how did you escape?

We've got you surrounded.

Surrender, MODOK.

(EVIL LAUGHTER)

I surrender to no one!

You see, I don't have just one super adaptoid.

I have several.

Each one can replicate your moves and powers.

Just a bunch of inferior wannabes.

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby.

(EXPLOSIONS)

These inferior wannabes pack quite a punch.

But not like the originals.

They just don't let up.

My super adaptoids have no heart or mind of their own.

They'll stop at nothing.

Makoto, we have no choice.

What?

We have to use Emerald Explosion.

The same technique we used on King's Fortress.

If it worked on him?

Yeah. Let's use it and blow them away.

But how? Back then, Loki used King's Crystal

to charge our technique to full power.

This time, we'll just have to do everything on our own.

I don't know.

I've never been able to charge up that much since then.

Do you really think we can do it?

If we want to get out of here, we're going to have to.

Then let's do this.

That's what I like to hear.

(SHOUTING)

No, not now.

The Emerald Explosion could leave them vulnerable to the droids.

Hurricane, Twister.

Now is not the time! We got this!

If those things copy their combined powers...

Let them do it.

What?

You heard me.

This is a good idea?

It's a big risk.

Trust them.

According to my perceptive calculations,

those was to have some formidable power.

I can't wait to steal it I've met my minions stronger.

Okay, I'm maxed out. You ready?

You bet. Charged up and ready to go.

Do your worst, then.

Emerald Explosion!

What? No!

All right!

That's not good.

(EVIL LAUGHTER)

They're being copied.

Nice try, Avengers, but this is the end for you.

Hmm.

What is wrong?

You screwed up.

According to my calculations,

those two are about to go boom boom.

They're what?

That's our cue to leave.

But we can...

Go on, go!

Right, fine.

(MODOK GRUMBLING)

Oh, no.

I thought this was the way to the exit!

How did I end up going further inside?

According to my usually astute calculations,

I must include I miscalculated!

(EXPLOSIONS)

Ah.

It's going to be okay.

That was too close for comfort.

You can say that again.

I'm just glad we got everybody out.

Tell me.

Those metal creatures, how'd you know they'd explode?

It was something MODOK said.

Remember when he was bragging about those adaptoids

not having a heart or mind?

So they could copy the power?

But they didn't have the discipline required to control it.

Emerald Power isn't something just anyone can wield.

Like Cap said, it takes a disciplined heart and mind.

You two have put the work in, and it shows.

Thanks. We do our best.

Even if those super adaptoids could replicate the power without overloading,

I knew they'd never be able to use it without self-destructing.

But how did you figure that out so quickly?

Let's just say it was a good hunch?

A what?

Wait, you mean you were just guessing and got lucky?

Hey, it all worked out in the end.

Your recklessness is truly frightening sometimes.

You believed him, didn't you, Cap?

I believed in the faith I have in Makoto and Bruno,

not Iron Man's ramblings.

So disciplined hearts and minds, huh?

Now I see.

You use that power 'cause you knew you could handle it, right?

-Of course. -Not really.

Eh.

What? Then, why did you agree to do it?

Well, you know, the Iron Man didn't really try to stop us,

and you seemed super confident that we could pull it off.

So I figured why not? Seemed like a good idea.

We all need to work on our communication skills,

don't you think, Makoto?

You can say that again.

(LAUGHTER)

TONY STARK: Wait, what?

An unknown inhuman appeared last night

wreaking havoc in the city and encasing it in ice.

-Traffic is at a standstill... -HULK: The whole city is covered in ice?

CAPTAIN AMERICA: No, it can't be.

It was Blizzard.

Are you sure?

As soon as you left on your mission,

he appeared from out of nowhere, and went on a rampage.

Now that you mention it, we didn't see him at the South Pole base.

That's right. He said that he escaped.

Wait, so is he still on the loose?

No. I was able to apprehend him.

TONY STARK: Great. Then I guess there's no problem.

I'm not so sure about that.

What do you mean?

The World Security Commission is on the move, and they mean business.

They don't quit.

They're taking these incidents involving the afflicted seriously

and have deemed them a menace to society.

Kamala.

Transmission alert, one message received.

Why did you wait so long to tell me about this?

I told you the moment I received it, remember?

What?

Chloe, you got to help me, please.

Kamala!

It's not fair. We haven't done anything wrong.

It's not like we chose to have our lives turned upside down.

It's only a matter of time.

The commission will demand that we turn them over.

And what do you think is going to happen to them after that?

Well, the commission has already ordered

all of the afflicted to turn themselves in.

If they don't, they'll take drastic measures.

THOR: In other words, we will use force.

What will you do?

Will you turn us in?

No way.

We couldn't possibly agree to the demands they're making.

All afflicted are dangerous?

How can you make such a blanket statement?

Hey, Tony, you agree, don't you?

Yeah, Cap. I guess I do.

-MAKOTO: Tony? -Yes, what is it?

Well, I mean, I guess I don't really know exactly the best

way to go about saying this.

-So-- -TONY STARK: Spit it out.

It's just... Say it.

Stop beating around the bush and say what--

If the number of afflicted continues to increase,

then in time, the Avengers will reach a point

when they won't be able to handle them alone.

Yeah, exactly.

Instead of us butting heads with the commission,

we should just hand over the afflicted like they ordered.

Is that why you hesitated with your answer earlier?

Because you feel the same way?

TONY STARK: And in return for doing so, I could negotiate with them

so that the afflicted are given proper treatment.

That's right.

The thought certainly crossed my mind.

I just don't know.

Tony?

Kamala, please be safe.

AGENT: We've placed Arianna and the injured girl

into protective custody at the hospital.

We'd like you to turn over Kamala to us as well.

I'm sorry, but the chief is away on business.

I don't have the authority to allow you to do something like that.

We have the authority.

We're with the World Security Commission.

Consider these orders to be from the national level.

Excuse me.

I was told to collect the girl named Kamala.

Oh, yeah? She's right in there.

I'm here for Kamala.

I'm under orders.

Will you come with me, please?

Come on, hurry.

Why are we leaving through the window?

This way. Keep moving.

How can I trust you?

Who are you?

That's enough camouflage act. Reset.

What the... Chloe?

Shh. Sorry for being so late.

It's really you!

Oh!

You came for me!

We're friends, so of course I came.

I'm not going to leave you stuck in the police station.

I saw that agents from the World Security Commission were there,

so I had to think fast.

My parents...

I bet they're angry with me.

Not at all. They're just worried.

Agents from the commission are keeping an eye on your home.

Let's head to Avengers Tower instead.

AGENT: Don't move.

Return the girl to us at once.

Chloe.

You'll be safe with us.

No way!

I guess we'll have to do this the hard way.

We got to get out of here! Let's move!

Kamala is out and on the run.

Send back up immediately.

(SIRENS BLARING)

They're guarding the Avenjet.

(DOORBELL RINGING)

Hang on, coming.

Hey, Josh. You gotta let us hide here for a while.

You're the only person we can turn to.

Oh, well.

I'd really like to help you,

but I don't want to get in any trouble.

Look I'm the one who has this whole mess.

At least help Kamala.

-Josh, I-- -I can't.

Please, Josh.

I'm sorry.

I can't.

I can't believe it. What a coward.

AGENT: There they are!

(SIRENS)

We've located the two girls.

Oh.

-Everything that I've done. -Huh?

What was it all for?

Kamala.

Pretending to be a superhero,

lying to my mom and dad every day.

Who did you think I was?

Don't say that.

AGENT: Surrender!

Kamala, whatever happens,

stay put and don't do anything.

What are you going?

Don't worry.

I can handle this.

It's an emergency alert from Chloe.

The Avenjet is ready for takeoff.

Let's move.

Wait. We've got a guest.

MODOK.

HULK: You survived?

Get down here so I can smash you.

TONY STARK: How did you survive that explosion?

I prepare for every contingency.

Your feeble mind would not understand.

We don't have time for this right now.

Back for round two, huh?

Let's take him down with the Emerald Explosion again.

We can't.

Why not?

When just two of those things exploded,

it was enough to blow their entire base away.

If this many were to do the same,

what do you think would happen?

It would probably destroy the entire city.

-Ew. -According to vengeful calculations,

that is exactly right!

(EVIL LAUGHTER)

So what do we do now?

(LASER SOUND)

What is that?

Ah! What's happening?

TONY STARK: Wait a second, who are they?

(YAWNING)

Well, well.

What do we have here?

Some unexpected intruders.

But according to my calculation, every single one of you

will be wiped out in no time.

Don't do it.

(EXPLOSION)

According to my confused calculations,

I'm completely confused!

TONY STARK: Who are you?

We are The Inhumans.

Did she say Inhumans?

NARRATOR: A new team appears, calling themselves The Inhumans.

Black Bolt, Medusa, Gorgon,

Karnak, Triton.

Are these mysterious strangers friend or foe?

After observing them, Makoto learns that his powers

are closely tied to the key items they possess.

The Terrigen Crystal.

Everything began with that mysterious gemstone.

Next time on Marvel Future Avengers,

"Arrival of The Inhumans."

Catch the future, Avengers.
