Ultimate Spider-Man (2011) s02e10 Episode Script
The Man-Wolf (25 min)
2x10 - The Man-Wolf What happened? Wake up on the wrong side of the flag this morning, Cap? Part of being Spider-man is making witty zingers.
And part of it is learning how to take a hit.
Especially when it comes from an unexpected source.
Appearances can be deceiving.
I feel like I'm on a TV show "When good heroes go bad.
" - Let's blast him.
- Whoa! Juggernaut! In Latveria? Another part of being me is playing super-group guru.
All right, guys, take him down with complex maneuvers but simple insults.
He's not bright.
Nova, get him from above! Up and over.
Power Man, Iron Fist, pitch him a fist-ball.
Awesome job.
Not bad for a first battle in the new court.
Still a few bugs to work out, Fury, but this place rocks.
It's like a living S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
videogame.
These life model decoys you fought are just as capable of delivering a mean bruise as the real thing.
Take them lightly at your own risk.
Uh-oh.
Looks like class is still in session.
I've never seen this side of you before, Nick.
And this side, I never want to see again.
Welcome aboard.
Good to see you're all in top form.
I got this one! - Give me a sec! - Nova, that's actually Coulson.
- Huh? - Get down.
It's great to see S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
back in full force.
Most people would have gone for a bi-carrier, but S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
? Tri-carrier all the way, huh? We were all bummed when the original helicarrier was obliterated by the Goblin, especially when it meant we all had to move into Aunt May's house together.
But this new ship looks like it was worth the wait.
Astro-carrier plus Aqua-carrier plus Strato-carrier equals Tri-carrier.
I, for one, am glad to be back home.
Though I do think Aunt May's gonna miss my cooking.
Well, I'm not gonna miss sharing a bathroom - with a bunch of boys.
- Yeah, it's almost too perfect.
I'm kinda waiting for the lights to go red and the alarms to ring.
All agents report to ready stations.
This is not a drill.
Nice new digs, Fury.
What's all the excitement? Distress call from the last place you'd expect.
The Moon? We're going to the Moon? When do we leave? Right now.
Initiate Astro-carrier separation.
Five, four, three, two, one Ignition.
Wow.
The Moon.
Moon! That's right, Moon.
So get the stars out of your eyes and pull yourselves together.
This situation actually carries with it a certain heh gravity.
Really? J.
Jonah? I appreciate your support in this trying time.
My son, John Jameson means everything to me.
Wow.
He's so bummed, he isn't even insulting me.
There might be a tiny, tiny little speck of warmth in his otherwise cold, dark heart.
And I implore all able-bodied agencies to set aside terrestrial menaces - Like Spiderman - There it is.
And direct all resources to reaching the Moon and finding out what has happened to John.
Me doing a solid for J.
J.
J.
? This could change everything.
Spider-man, you are web-tastic! Daily Bugle is building a communication tower on the surface of the Moon.
The first of its kind.
What, so J.
Jonah Jameson can broadcast his contempt for me into space? Jameson's son John was leading the project, but construction came to a halt when his team came across an archaeological find.
Wait, there's archaeology on the Moon? Their signal went dark yesterday.
I don't like sending you in blind, but we have no other options here.
So suit up and get to the skimmer.
Yeah, those of you who need spacesuits.
Just sayin'.
Guys, not to completely geek out, but, we're on the Moon.
This is a consciousness raising moment.
But seriously, the - Moon! - Moon! Drive faster, Danny.
- Faster? - Yeah.
The last thing I need is Nova being the first man on the Moon.
- What took you? - No one likes a show off, bucket head.
The artificial gravity is still active.
Guys, over here.
Scratch marks.
- Okay, weird.
- They're all over.
On the door, too.
Like something tried to get in.
But what? Even for the Moon this is creepy.
More claw marks.
- Maybe naughty moon cat pets? - Very naughty and very big.
This is a huge complex.
Divide and conquer.
Tiger, you and Power Man take the left corridor.
- We'll take the right.
- We're on it.
Are you sure it's a good idea to split up? We'll be fine totally, totally fine.
I mean, ah-ha! It's you, John Jameson.
We were looking for you.
Spider-man? But why are you ? S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
sent us.
- Dude, what happened up here? - I don't remember.
Everyone was freaking out about something a-a monster loose in the building.
Monster like your dad monster or monster like bugga-bugga monster? A wolf.
It sounds crazy.
I mean, a wolf on the Moon? But I was looking for my people.
Then something hit me.
I blacked out, and when I came to my crew was gone - I had this terrible headache.
- Okay.
That's the bad news.
- Is there good news? - Spider-man.
S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
sent us to bring you back.
No, I can't leave! I'm responsible for all this, for them.
I have to stay here, save my men and see things through.
Choosing responsibility over Jonah's orders? Am I actually liking JJJ's son? Let's figure out what's going on, find your peeps, and all get out of here.
- I trust you, Spider-man.
- You are not at all what I expected J.
Jonah Jameson's son to be.
Actually, my dad and I don't have a lot in common.
It's why I accepted a job a quarter of a million miles from Earth.
- To get some "space" between you? - That was pretty funny.
You're nothing like my dad makes you out to be.
Ya think? Preconceived notions often lead to unexpected realities.
- I so did not get that.
- Take a number.
Here's to not judging a book by its cover.
Let's go hunt your wolf and find your crew.
We were drilling in anchor cables for the tower when we knocked into this cavern.
You won't believe what we found down here.
I didn't.
Still don't Whoa.
- Earth to Spider-man? - Sorry, I'm just really wowed.
And shouldn't that technically be "Moon to Spider-man?" Hey, any idea how old this is, JJ? It looks beyond ancient.
We couldn't date it, but we did uncover some old artifacts.
These are a few examples of the inactive jewels we found.
How did these get here? Aren't you afraid someone might take these? We don't get a lot of crime up here on the Moon.
Wait.
What do you mean by "inactive"? Inactive crystals? Looks more active to me.
Okay, now I see the family resemblance.
Tiger, Power Man.
Hostile wolf thingy with decidedly not inactive gem thingy.
Lock onto my signal thingy and get here fast! Fast as we can, bugs.
We got downed civilians over here.
But we're on the way.
Get here quick.
We need back up.
You need back up.
I can take this guy.
He has a weapon.
You mean, besides the "what giant claws you have" claws? Kiyah! The sword it's absorbed my chi energy.
- Stay on him.
I'll catch up.
- Already gone.
This is like a creepy haunted fun house minus the house and you know, the fun.
Uh-oh, a wolf in the dark.
Not a great combination.
But nothing my infrared lenses can't solve.
Hello? Paging Spidey-sense.
Why didn't it warn me? Unless John! I know you're in there.
What? Be the man you are, not the Man-Wolf that's taking you over.
Might I also suggest an electric razor? What was it, the grooming tips? Because I've got more Okay, appealing to the man part didn't work.
I've got you, wolfie.
You can run, but as long as you maintain a core body temperature, you cannot hide.
- Iron Fist? - Spider.
- I lost you for a minute.
- Me? Did you see that man-slash-wolf come this way? No, but come check out what Nova found.
I think it's important.
Look at what I just found.
Wow.
- Whoa.
- Wow.
Amazing.
Whoa.
Wow, a holographic recording stored in the ystals.
It seems to be telling a story Big, active, glowing gemstone plus human contact or, you know, alien contact, apparently equals gemstone fusion, which equals - Wolf-man! - No, Man-Wolf.
Unlike his dad, John's no monster.
He's still in there.
I'm sure of it.
Or maybe not.
Sweet christmas.
- Pipe down, fido.
- Bad dog.
Whoa! Moonquake? Also, not good.
One thing I'll say about you, Nova, you always bring down the house.
Well, whoever's to blame, the sky is falling.
- Luke! - Got it.
This place is coming down.
Get to the skimmer.
I got you.
But what about Jameson? He's still in here somewhere.
One of the thrusters was damaged by debris.
We won't make it with all of us aboard.
Too much weight, not enough thrust.
- Nova, out.
- What? Your suit works in space, and we need a jet assist.
- You up for it? - Me? I was born "up for it".
Ignition.
I can't believe I'm leaving Jameson.
See the victory, not the failure, friend.
- We saved these two lives.
- And as soon as we get them to safety, I'm coming back here to find that big "bad" wolf.
Nova? What are you doing out there? Danger, hull breach.
Crash imminent.
We're losing altitude.
Okay, so in space you can hear a Man-Wolf scream if you have your headset on.
Hope everyone's seat belt is fastened! Wonder what kind of frequent flyer miles we get for that? No time for comedy unless it's mine.
We gotta fix this ship, protect those crew members, and fight a wolf.
Let's go.
Anyone else having trouble with this gravity thing? Whoa.
Well, we better get used to it fast because someone doesn't look too disadvantaged out here.
We'll have to throw our normal playbook out the window.
Not me.
- Am I awesome or what? - Yeah, thanks a lot for making it impossible to spot our target.
I don't think you really meant that, thank you.
Maybe not, but you are awesome because you're the only one who can weld that skimmer roof back on if Power Man bends it into place.
Fist, Tiger, and I will keep the hairy guy busy.
Got it.
Fist, on the Moon even I can pitch a fistball.
Ready? Me next.
Not doing low gravity training was a serious oversight on our part.
Maybe, but who ever thought we'd fight a werewolf on the Moon? So anyway, leash? No.
S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
Zero G webs, you bet! You're not a monster, Jameson.
You were worried about keeping your word.
You're a good man under all this matted fur.
John, I know you're in there, and I know the monster is in control.
But if it can control you, you can control it.
Guys, I've got a plan.
But you've got to trust me.
I need help.
And I'm here to give it to you.
Step one give me your sword.
Step two is a little more complicated.
Glowing gemstone plus human contact equals gemstone fusion, which equals Iron Fist, not the wolf.
The stone.
Chi-punch the stone.
Danny, he's all yours! It wasn't enough.
Let me take a swing at this.
It worked.
He's reverting.
Get him to the ship.
- Spidey, your faceplate's cracked.
- Aw, shnizzle.
The one time I ask for S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
's assistance, and what happens? Spider-man destroys my property and turns my son into a freak like him.
Did I die and go to the dark place? Sorry, that JJJ is all too real.
He's been yelling like that for about an hour.
You can thank Nova for the privilege of hearing more J.
Jonah jabs.
He got everyone into the ship and rocketed it out to dock with the Tri-carrier.
Nova saved me? Is he okay? Yeah, yeah, you can thank me tomorrow.
And JJ? Like the rest of us, your plan saved his life, but he will need help learning to deal with his new appearance.
What are you gonna do about this, Fury? I hold S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
responsible.
Your son is alive for one reason, Jameson.
And like it or not, that one reason is Spider-man.
So put that in your mustache and chew on it.
Fury out.
That guy bugs me.
Me too.
What? Too soon?
And part of it is learning how to take a hit.
Especially when it comes from an unexpected source.
Appearances can be deceiving.
I feel like I'm on a TV show "When good heroes go bad.
