- Why would you want to
hold a press conference

inside Pearl Gate Penitentiary?

- Well, what better way to unveil

my new campaign platform?

- Artie's gonna come out against crime.

- But the crime rate has gone up

since you've been in office.
- Well.

- Most of your friends are criminals.

You yourself have a criminal record.

- This is we don't invite
you to parties, Edwinna.

She's such a whiner!

- The point is I have come
up with a perfect gimmick

to change my pro-crime image.

If you will, please.

(bleeping)

(ominous gong)

Ta-da! (laughs)

The city's first electric
chair, what do you think?

- I think capital punishment
is out of our jurisdiction.

- I wasn't asking you,

I was asking Babette.

- Artie can do whatever
he wants, he's the mayor.

- But I--
- Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!

A deputy mayor should
be seen and not heard.

Anyway, I don't have to
execute a real criminal.

This is a publicity stunt.

- I love the chair, Artie.

(laughing)

All these shackles are giving me ideas.

- Ooh! (laughs excitedly)

Now you're talking.

Okay, Edwinna, hold all my calls,

I won't be available for the next hour.

- I don't answer phones,
that's Babette's job.

(thundering)

- (laughing) Oh boy!

(phone rings)

(Babette laughs)

- Arthur what?
(Artie chuckles)

- Or maybe it's mine.
(phone rings)

Hello?

- You've been charged with
being exceptionally witty.

- This is Deputy Mayor Edwinna Watts.

- Yeah, this is emergency.

We found a claw in the cabling

that leads to the electric chamber.

(ominous music)
- Oh my.

But the Mayor's in there right now.

- Whoa, whoa, wait,

if he starts up the chair the
circuits are gonna overload.

- Oh my, oh, ah!

- Guilty guilty, a thousand
times guilty. (laughs)

- Oh, then I hereby sentence
you to death by suffocation.

- Ooh!

- Mayor Worth, Mayor Worth?

- What are you gonna suffocate me with?

- My two large, luscious--
(muted banging)

- Mayor Worth!

- Any last requests?

- Oh, let's make my death as
slow and agonizing as possible.

- In that case, I'm granting you a pardon.

- No, no no no no, wait!

- Oh dear.

Stay away from the electric chair!

(muted banging)

(laughing)

- I've been a very, very bad boy.

- He's not listening to me.

- Okay, you're gonna
cut off the electricity

going to the chair.
- Oh my.

- There should be a
circuit box on the wall.

- Yeah, open the box.
- Yeah, do you see it?

- Ah, yes.

- Oh, how bad?
- I'll show you. (laughing)

- Now open the door to the metal box.

- Open the door to the little box.

- Very carefully pull out the red wire.

- What?

Pulling out the red wire.
(fizzing and hissing)

(agonized screaming)

(dramatic music)

- What happened?

- I think we blew up the mayor.

- Or at least the deputy mayor.

- Yeah, let's not tell our
supervisor about this, alright?

(exciting music)
(tires screeching)

- Fire.
(gun firing)

(cars explode)

- [Narrator] In the light of day,

Darcy Walker is a cop.
(grunting)

But in the dark of night,
she becomes Black Scorpion.

(music intensifies)

Doing with a mask what
she can't do with a badge.

(guns firing)

(loud explosion)

(siren wailing)

(suspenseful music)

- Hello, ma'am, are you still there?

Did you explode, ma'am?

(ominous percussion)

- You think?

Let's get outta here.

Come on, we don't tell our supervisor.

(suspenseful music)

(clanking)

(panting)

- You're gonna make me kick some rear?

(dramatic whooshing)
Red alert, red alert,

there's an escapee in corridor A6.

Prisoner is unarmed and
appears to be a super villain.

- [Voice On Phone] Which one is it?

- I don't know but she's a real Stunner.

(alarm beeping)

(fierce crackling)

- I am a Stunner.

(light grunting)

- What are you doing in my slipper?

- [Voice On Comm] Attention all units,

breakout in progress at
Pearl Gate Penitentiary,

five guards down.

- Well, I guess you lucked out,

I'll be wearing my boots tonight.

(exciting dance music)
(engine roars)

Computer, activate auto-transform.

(charged crackling)

- [Guard] There's a prisoner escaping!

(guns firing)
Get the spotlight on!

Go!
(gun firing)

(engine whining)

(fierce crackling)
(fence rattling)

(air rushing)

(fierce crackling)

(machine whirring)

(tires screeching)

(tense music)

- Black Scorpion, you're in for a shock.

- Oh, believe me,

I've fought so many super villains,

nothing shocks me any more.

(fierce crackling)
(heavy thumping)

- You're not the only one
who can shoot electricity.

(loud whooshing)

- Was that the best you've got?

Hmm, it was nice.

(loud whooshing)

Hurt me some more.

(loud whooshing)

- You've drained my power supply.

- The least I can do
is give you a recharge.

(fierce crackling)
(heavy thumping)

(Stunner laughs)

- There's never an electrician
around when you need one.

- I'll give you a jumpstart.

(fierce crackling)
(men gurgle)

(engine revving)

I feel run down.

Need power.

- You're sure this Stunner was an inmate?

- The only thing I'm sure of is that

we have all the super villains
locked up safe and secure.

(ominous music)
(fierce crackling)

(gasping)

- Where are the rest of them?

- Oh, they've been sent up to
Burrow Psychiatric Hospital

for a long overdue evaluation,

I don't know if you've noticed
but these super villains?

- Hmm?
- They're all cuckoo.

(Artie grunts amusedly)

(tense music)
(Stunner moans)

- So who's the new girl on the cell block?

(electric discharge)

(moans sensuously)

- What a night.

- We killed the deputy mayor,

and lost our truck, got electrocuted.

- At least things can't get any worse.

You know what they say,

lightning never strikes
the same place twice.

- I wouldn't count on that.

- So, what do you want?

- Electricity.

- Well then you're gonna have to pay

your monthly bill like everyone was.

- Who needs a power company when

there's so much electricity between us?

(fierce crackling)
(men scream and gurgle)

Well, how do you feel?

- Weak, powerless.

- And you?

- I don't have any energy at all.

- That's because I drained
all the organic electricity

from your nervous systems.

From now on you'll both be
as power hungry as I am.

(crackling)
(sinister music)

(gurgling)

Better?

(assenting gurgles)

Do you boys wanna keep getting turned on?

(assenting gurgles)

Then you'll have to be my charges.

Boys, hook me up.

(sinister sneering)

(ominous music)

(metallic clipping)

(chuckling)

(switch flicking)
(electric droning)

(switch flicking)

It's time to take charge.

(thunderous booming)
(sparking)

(Stunner screams)

(sparking)

(sinister music)

(Stunner screams)
(loud hissing)

- Artie, Artie, I have a surprise.

It's playtime!

- What?

Oh. (chuckles)

What?

- Artie, did you forget
to pay the electric bill?

- Need a light?

- Stunner!

- I've come to take the
power out of your office.

- Well, you already did that.

- Oh no, I'm just getting started.

- I had to put in new shock absorbers.

The last ones were pretty beaten up

after your last rumble with Aftershock.

- Thanks, I appreciate that.

- Alright, I also put in a new gizmo

that will really absorb shocks,

a lightning rod.

Now you'll be ready for Stunner! (laughs)

- [Veronica] Did somebody mention Stunner?

She is my hero.

- Your hero?

- I saw her on the news last night,

that girl is glam even
on a surveillance video.

- Veronica, Stunner has broken the law.

- But not the laws of fashion.

She's inspired me to create my own

new line of lingerie for my shop.

Plug Intimate.

- Ooh, I like your equipment, baby!

- You ain't seen nothing yet.

Turn me on, Argyle.

- Don't I always? (chuckling excitedly)

(switch flicks)

My baby is electrifying! (laughs)

- Well, what do you think?

Does it make a powerful statement?

(power fizzles)

- Maybe a little too powerful.

- Well, lingerie is
meant for candle light.

- [Voice On Comm] Attention all units,

power outage at City Hall.

An unidentified glowing woman
was reported by security.

(siren wails)
(exciting music)

- It's gotta be Stunner.

(engine roaring)
(horn honks)

Activate auto-transform.

(explosive whoosh)

- Ahh, what are you doing?

- Wet objects conduct electricity better.

(ominous music)

- Oh, there's no need for violence.

I've always been open to the views

of the super villain community.

- Well, my view is you
should be discharged.

- Why, what have I ever done to anybody?

- You forget about Operation Cleansweep?

- Well, that was a big success.

We got all the homeless off the streets.

- You forced them to move underground.

- I didn't know what was happening!

My deputy mayor came into the office

and spilled coffee all
over my progress reports.

- Well then maybe you
should quit drinking coffee.

(loud explosion)

(engine whining)

And I suppose Edwinna is to blame

for turning Angel Bay
into a toxic waste dump?

- Well, as a matter of fact, she is.

She misread a fax to me.

I thought they were dumping tonic water.

- Well, I can fix your fax.
(loud explosion)

- Artie, tell her about
Operation Shakedown.

That was Edwinna's fault, too.

- Oh, good point.

The earthquake relief funds just found

their way into my bank account,

when Edwinna made a typo
on the office computer.

- Well, to err is human,

but it takes a computer to
really screw things up, huh?

(loud explosion)
(glass shattering)

- I hope those appliances had warranties.

- Well, that's a problem
for the next mayor.

'Cause you're about to
have a permanent blackout.

- Police, you're under arrest.

- You can't charge me with anything.

But I can charge you.
(fierce explosion)

(crackling)
(cop screams)

Hmm, if I have negative ions,

you must have positive ones.

- Why do you say that?

- 'Cause I find you very attractive.

- I hope you don't mind me dropping by.

- Black Scorpion.

- I saw that your lights were on.

- Bugs that are attracted
to electrical light

tend to have short lifespans.

(glass shatters)
(Scorpion grunts)

- I think you need to
find a healthier outlet

for your anger.

- I don't need an outlet,
I use direct current.

(fierce crackling)

- Come on Black Scorpion,
use your sting ray on her.

- It would only give her more
power than she already has!

- Why can't Detective
Rafferty just shoot her?

(dramatic thumping)

- The only thing he's gonna shoot.

(fierce crackling)

Is the breeze.
(fan whirring loudly)

(papers rustling)
(muted grunts)

(gun firing)

(coughing)

- Scorpion, wait!

(tires screen)
(engine roars)

- Access vehicular tracking system.

(exciting dance music)

(dramatic chime)

(engine whines)

- [Henchman 1] Oh no, Black Scorpion

- [Henchman 2] And she's gaining on us!

- Well, she may have zip but I've got zap.

(crackling)

(engine whines)
(tires screech)

(crackling)

(crackling)

(loud explosion)

(tires screech)

- That's--
- Black Scorpion.

(tires screech)
(siren wails)

- Activate smokescreen.

(man screams)

- What?

- [Cop 1] I can't see anything!

- [Cop 2 Is that a problem?

- [Cop 1] Is that a car?

- [Cop 2] This is gonna hurt.

(screaming)

(loud crashing)

(engine roars)

(engine revs)
(tires screech)

(tires screech)

- This is unit 496,

we've just spotted Black Scorpion

heading down to the Red Light District.

(sirens wailing)

(tires screeching)

- Engage rapid booster.

(tires screech)

- Ah, where did she go?

- Auto-reverse.

- Now you've done it again!

Why do I keep letting
you two morons drive?

One of these days you're
gonna kill someone.

Which brings me to your next assignment.

- You mean we get to kill someone?

(crutches rattling)
- Finally.

- Not exactly.

Mayor Worth is holding a
mock execution in his office,

and he wants a police presence,

so I volunteered you two.

- I've dreamed of being an executioner

ever since I was a child.

- Me too, you know, I
like playing Hangman.

(whooshing)

(laughing)

- [Rafferty] Hey, what up?

- Hi.

So I heard there was some
sparks between you and Stunner?

- We had a little confrontation
in the mayor's office,

if that's what you're referring to.

Thing is I can't figure out why Stunner

would wanna kill the mayor.

- I dunno,

but it does seem to be a favorite pastime

of the super villains in this city.

- Yeah, but who would have anything

to gain by the mayor's death?

- Mrs. Worth?
- His kids.

- His employees.

- The tax-payers.
- Plants and animals.

- Basically, future generations.

- What about Edwinna Watts?

- What about her?

- Well, if Worth dies,
doesn't she become mayor?

(dramatic sting)

- Votes show an overwhelming 92%

of the public do not want
Mayor Worth to be assassinated.

Most citizens fear that if Worth dies,

Edwina Watts will become
acting mayor in his place.

This fear is grounded
in her less than stellar

record of public service,

which Mayor Worth himself has pointed out

time and time again.

- That's because he always
uses me as a scapegoat!

(sighs)

(forbidding sting)

But that does give me an idea.

If the people feel
positive toward the mayor,

and negative towards me,

time to reverse the current.

Tomorrow night,

Worth's gonna become the
most hated man in history.

Tax payers will switch to me
faster than the speed of light.

That is, whichever tax payers survive.

- Survive what?

(crackling)

- My high-tech holocaust.

(scuttling)

(tense music)

- The guards gave me some static.

So it's time for me to
give them some static back.

(explosion)

(explosion)

(bored sigh)

- We're the only crooks
who break into jail.

- It's all part of my shock tactic

to get the public to hate the mayor.

(crackling)

(excited gasp)

- You should get a chair
like this for the hideout.

- Yeah, maybe with a matching sofa.

(deranged giggles)

- Quiet!

This takes a lot of energy.

(fierce crackling)

(explosion)
(pained moan)

- That chair must have
given you a lot of power.

- Just the opposite, Crackle.

I gave a lot of power to the chair.

- [Henchman] But why?

- I'm too drained to explain.

Just get me back to the power plant.

I need to be recharged.
(pants)

- But what if Black Scorpion
finds you like this?

- Yeah, she could knock your lights out.

- That's why I'm gonna refresh myself

in that fuse box out there.

Help me.

- But if you suck the juice outta there,

you'll short-circuit the
electromagnetic locks

on super villain's row.

- That's the idea, dimwits.

Black Scorpion will have
her energy focused on

Medusa, Slapshot, and Breathtaker.

Not on us.

(dramatic percussion)

(alarm bleeps)

(explosion)

- No, no, no!

(Stunner moans)

Nah!

All super villains must
stay in their cells.

I need backup, Super Villain Row!

Call me.

- You sure it won't clash?

I don't wanna look gaudy.

Hey, Darcy.

- Hey, True Blue!

- What are you doing?

- I am attaching a
quintillion volt battery.

This baby should produce
enough electricity

to run a fleet of aircraft carriers.

Not to mention some lingerie
in this case. (laughs)

- Where'd you get that?

- I invented it.

I am sick and tired of
changing blown fuses.

- [Voice On Comm] Emergency,

electrical failure in grid sector seven

has sparked massive rioting.

All units respond immediately.

- I gotta go.

(tires screech)
(sirens wail)

(explosion)
(screaming)

(guns firing)

(sirens wail)

(loud crashing)

(screaming wildly)

(glass shatters)

(guns firing)

(ominous music)

- Breathtaker has been
spotted at Angel Pier.

All available units please respond.

- I guess I'm available.

(tires screech)

Computer, activate auto-transform.

(tense music)

(thumping)

- A full tank, and I was running on empty.

(breathing deeply)

- Pier's closed after dark.

- Black Scorpion.

I just wanted some fresh air.

- And no metal containers allowed.

- But I am a metal container.

- Not for long.

(loud thumping)

Are you ready to give yourself up?

- I'm just getting my second wind.

(loud thumping)
(Breathtaker groans)

Time's up, Breathtaker.

(clanging)

- Air, air, I need air.

I need air, air, air.

- Yeah, you'll get plenty of air,

at Pearl Gate Penitentiary.

(tense music)

(gasps admiringly)

(glass shatters)

- [Voice On Comm] Attention all units,

a burglar alarm has now been
set off at Gabriel Gems.

We need a unit to investigate.

(tires screech)
(door shuts)

(heels clacking)

(tense music)

- Black Scorpion?

- Medusa.

And what rock did you
crawl out from under?

- You're about to be put
under a rock yourself,

a gravestone courtesy
of my Plaster Blaster.

(thumping)

- Come on, show me what
you've got, let's go!

- Everyone falls for the
girl with the most gems.

(exciting music)

- Let's see if you're made of stone.

- Ooh, how about a little
hand-to-handbag combat?

(thumping)

- All I've got is this costume jewelry,

but I think you'll be struck by it.

(loud fizzing)
(Medusa moans)

- You'll get all the stones you
want in the prison rockpile.

(Medusa moans weakly)

- [Voice On Comm] Attention,
any unit available.

Slapshot spotted in the Angel Forum.

(ref moans)

- You make me lose the championship,

now I'm gonna make you lose your life.

(thumping and crashing)

- Slapshot, you wanna play with me?

- I'll pass.

(exciting music)

(thumping)

(Slapshot moans)

- Hey, are you ready to
go back to the slammer?

- No, but I'm ready to slam.

(Scorpion grunts)

(stomping)

- Huh?

(Slapshot snarls)

(stomping)

(Slapshot groans)

(alarm bleeps)

- Game's over, loser.

- There he is, get him!

(pathetic shouting)
(fly buzzing)

(vindictive yelling)

(comedic music)

- So that's where I left my Danish.

What are you guys doing?

- Oh, we're practicing for the execution.

- Look, all you gotta do is stand there

like a couple of idiots.

- Yeah, I agree, we don't
need any preparation for that.

- We've been practicing
that our whole lives.

- Listen, just don't
embarrass the department.

Now you just stand there
during the execution,

you don't say anything,
you don't do anything.

I mean if either one of you
so much as scratch your nose,

it's gonna be your execution.

(delighted lip smacking)

Tart.

- Hello everybody, I'm Don McDonald,

tonight Mayor Worth will
demonstrate the first

electric chair in the City of Angels.

Channel 8 will broadcast this event live.

- Oh, there'll be nothing
live about this event, Don.

(electric crackling)

In fact millions will die when Mayor Worth

pulls that switch.

- But they fixed the electric chair.

It's safe now.
- Yeah, now let's grid it.

- When we broke into prison,

I transferred a million
volts of power to the chair.

Now when it's turned on,

it'll send a mighty current
to all the circuitry

in the city,

refrigerators will become incinerators,

hair-drying will be hair-raising,

boom boxes will go boom, in fact,

anything that uses
kilowatts will kill a lot.

(laughing)

- You should get some sleep, True Blue.

You were up all night
catching super villains.

- I still have one more to catch, Stunner.

- But before you catch
her you have to find her.

- She's got to be somewhere
with a lot of electricity.

(dramatic music)
(engine roars)

- Excuse me.

Since Edwinna hasn't shown up yet,

why don't you give my introductory speech?

- You mean on camera?
- Yeah.

(delighted giggle)
- Good!

(heels clacking)

- My sweet Babette,

it looks like my wife will
be away for the weekend.

How about you and me--
- Babette!

(laughing)

(applause)

- She's just got a little sense of humor.

(clears throat)

Thank you for coming to this
vivid demonstration of justice.

From now on when you think of crime,

you'll think of Artie Worth.
(applause)

- Yeah yeah, your plan is good,

it's your execution I'm interested in!

- [Scorpion] Speaking of executions.

- Don't waste your energy, Black Scorpion.

You can't get past my current.

Charges.

(exciting music)
(whistling)

Hit her!

(thumping)

(henchman grunts)

- How about some assault and batteries?

(dramatic chimes)

(Scorpion grunts)

- Hit her!

(thumping)

(henchman screams)

(thumping)
(henchman moans)

I may be a new plant owner,

but I know how to protect
my plant from bugs.

(thumping)

(thumping)

(Stunner moans)

(fierce crackling)

(fierce crackling)
(wire spooling)

Now you sit tight, Black Scorpion.

- What are you after?

- Oh, the Mayor's press conference
will explain everything.

In fact, that's what I
call a real current event.

- What are you talking about?

- When Mayor Worth pulls that switch,

it'll cause an electrical apocalypse

that will fry the entire city! (laughs)

- You're insane.

- Oh, well then maybe
I should check myself

into Fairways Asylum.

Shock therapy might do me good.

- Why are you doing this?

- Because everyone will blame Worth,

and then they'll throw him out,

and I'll be known as
the good hearted mayor

who rebuilds the city.

- But you wouldn't become
mayor, Edwinna Watts would.

(hisses awkwardly)

- Oh my God, oh my God, it is you.

(panting)

(crackling)
(explosion)

(wire unspooling)

Edwinna, you really are a Stunner.

(crackling)
(loud crashing)

(tires screech)

- And now to show you who we'd most like

to see in that chair,

public enemy number one.

Babette.

(applause)

Now, enough of this talk.

Let's see what this baby can do, huh?

(dramatic gong)

- Don't touch that switch!

- You can't tell the Mayor what to do.

Arrest that big black bug.

- Sir, our captain said he'd kill us

if we did anything but stand here.

- Sir, our caption said he'd kill us

if we did anything but stand here.

- Well, you'll all be killed
if you don't listen to me.

- I'll arrest her.

(thumping)
(exciting music)

- Stunner.

(fierce crackling)

(panicked yells)

- Come on.

- This is Rafferty at the chair,

up at Pearl Gate Penitentiary.

- Let's go.

- [Rafferty] I want a lockdown
on each and every exit.

(fierce crackling)
(manacles clacking)

- You may have pulled the
plug on my power play,

but I can still have
an electrifying finale.

And you get the front row seat.

(fierce crackling)

It's a good thing you wore black today.

You're dressed for your funeral.

(electrical humming)

(thumping)
(Stunner grunts)

- Sorry to disappoint you, Stunner,

but I'm alive, and so is the city.

- But, how?

- This quintillion volt battery

stored every last spark of your current,

so now I can zap more volts
than even you can handle.

- How dare you take my
power, give it back.

(thumping)
(Stunner grunts)

- Anything you say.
(crackling)

(Stunner moans weakly)

Electricity didn't bring
good things to your life.

- They say that absolute
power corrupts absolutely,

and Edwina Watts also known as Stunner

proved that to be true.

We'll have all the
details on the Watts story

a little later.
(romantic music)

- You were attracted to
Stunner, weren't you?

- No, no no no, she's not my type.

- Your type?

- Yeah, you know,

when there's a certain
electricity between two people.

- Ah, right, I think I know what you mean.

- Whoa, hey, look at the time,

I've gotta get going.

- Oh, come here, forgot your jacket.

- Oh.
(static buzz)

- Ah!
(Rafferty laughs)

- You shocked me.

- Sorry about that, guess my
clothes are a little staticky.

- Yeah, yeah, that's what it is.

(Rafferty sighs)

(forbidding gong)

(dramatic dance music)
