"[HORN HONKS]" "[RINGING]" "[GASPS]" "Tye, it's almost midnight." "What?" "I've had enough, Jaime." "I'm done letting Maurice push me around." "I'm on the bus to Houston tonight." "I'm at the depot now." "Whoa, whoa." "Slaw down, hermano." "Na, not this time." "I just called to say goodbye." "Tye, listen, I'm an my way." "I'll meet you by the statue of Cochise." "We'll talk." "Just promise me you'll wait till I get there." "No promises." "SCARAB:" "Your concern for this Tye is trivia!" "Our armor is in tended for greater purpose." "I'm trying to stop a friend from making a massive mistake." "What greater purpose is there?" "[noon OPENS]" " Excuse me, the bus to Houston?" " You just missed it." "But there'll be another one in the morning." "Investigating the origin of the alien bomb... that destroyed the Krolotean invasion force is still a high priority." "We suspect the bomb may have been smuggled to Earth via boom tube." "Watchtower sensor scans of Bialya have recorded an uptick in boom tube activity." "Alpha Squad, your mission is to..." "Sneak behind enemy lines, recon known boom tube hotspots... and find alien tech matching the bomb." "Oh, and don't get caught or create an international incident, right?" "That about covers it." "Psimon?" "We have confirmation that Bialya's telepathic enforcer... is still catatonic in a Quraci hospital after his last encounter with you." "But Bialya's dictator, Queen Bee, is another story." "Her ability to control the minds of men... is why Alpha is an all-female squad for this mission." "Oh, really?" "And would you have felt the need to justify an all-male squad for a given mission?" "Ahem, um..." "The..." "There's no right answer for that, is there?" "So Nighlwing out." "Queen Bee isn't the only woman who can mess with a man's mind." "[ALL LAUGH]" "Jaime, what are you doing here?" "I'm looking for Tye, Mrs. Longshadow." "Is he home?" "He was gone when I wake up this morning." "He should be at school." "He's nut." "And he's not answering his cell." "Last night he called me from the bus depot." "He said he was running away to Houston." "He threatens to do that a lat, Jaime." "You know that." "I know, but last night he sounded It doesn't matter." "I went to the bus depot and he was gone." "The clerk said nobody bought a ticket for the Houston bus last night." " I'm lacking for Tye, Mr. Badaway." " There, you see?" "He and Maurice, my boyfriend, they had another of their disagreements last night." "So Tye's blowing off steam somewhere." "What kind of disagreement?" "[DOOR OPENS]" "Maurice, you're home." "Forgot my lunch, Shelly." "What's the kid doing here?" " I'm lacking for Tye, Mr. Badaway." " You're ditching." "And I'm a school employee, kid." "Gonna have to report your butt to Principal Sanchez." "Ga ahead." "I'm an a free period." "SCARAB:" "Biofeedback of this Maurice indicates hostile intent." "Recommend preemptive strike." "Don't make faces at me." "Or I'll take care of you like I took care of..." "Of Tye?" "Did you do something to Tye?" "Why, you little punk!" "SCARAB:" "Attack imminent." "Activating plasma cannon." "Na!" "Maurice didn't touch Tye last night." "They had an argument and Tye took off." "Ran off like always." "Tail between his legs." "Anyway, Jaime was just leaving." "Don't mind Maurice." "He's having a bad day." " I hear he has a lat of bad days." " Goad ones tan." "Occasionally." "But I'm sure Tye is fine." "He stays with his grandfather sometimes." "He's probably there now." "I hope you're right." "BATGIRL:" "The other boom tube hobspots have all been busts, but" "WONDER GIRL:" "But this much security must be guarding some big-deal alien stuff, right?" "MISS MARTIAN:" "Our job is to find out." "Batgirl, take the north hangar." "I'll take the south." "Bee, the middle." "Wonder Girl, hold position." "WONDER GIRL:" "What?" "Wait." "Why can't I go in?" "BUMBLEBEE:" "Because you're Wonder Girl, honey." "Not Stealther Girl." "WONDER GIRL:" "I can do this." "BATGIRL:" "No one's knocking your enthusiasm, Cass." "And if we were in a fire fight, there's no one I'd rather have beside me." "MISS MARTIAN:" "But we're trying to avoid a fight." "And we need a lookout." "Use the psychic link only." "The Bialyans have the tech to intercept our radios." "Anything goes wrong, we scatter and meet at the rendezvous point." "Clear?" "BATGIRL  BUMBLEBEE:" "Clear." "Ugh, clear." "Ah." "WONDER GIRL I mean, clear." "Ugh, I could've done that." "Uh-oh." "WONDER GIRL:" "Radio's not safe." "New psychic link's a no-go." "Gotta warn the others the hard way." "I've shut dawn our psychic link, but we need to alert the others." "You warn Bumblebee, I'll warn Batgirl." "Meet at the rendezvous paint ASAP." "Hey, you did good, Cassie." "Who's Stealther Girl now?" "[GRUNTING]" "[GRUNTS THEN GROANS]" "Sound the alert!" "Lockdown!" " Here you go, Mr. Longshadow." " Thank you, Jaime." "So have you seen Tye?" "Ahh." "Not in a few weeks." "But I wouldn't worry." "You see, Tye comes from a long line of Mescalero Apache chiefs." "I believe he has begun ajaurney of awakening... that will connect him to his heritage and show him the path to his destiny." "SCARAB:" "This Holling Longshadow appears imbalanced." "Our time is wasted here." "We should interrogate the Maurice with extreme prejudice." "Uh, wow." "Um..." "That's something." "But I was thinking Tye's mum's boyfriend Maurice might have..." "Ahh." "Ah, Maurice." "Years ago, he was jealous of Tye's father's role as head of our band." "New he's jealous of Tye." "But he's just a distraction." "He plays no part in Tye's vision quest." " Or yours, for that matter." " Mine?" "You search for answers." "But the answers you seek will find you." "Only then will you make peace with the one inside you." "SCARAB:" "He knows too much." "Eliminate him." "Uh, thanks, Mr. Longshadow." "I'll let you know when I find Tye Enjoy your, uh, water." "Ahh." "[ALARM WAILING]" "[GRUNTING]" "And who the heck are you?" "Wonder Baby?" "Wonder Brat?" "The Blond Wonder?" "Devastation, what's going on?" "Who is that?" "She's less than forthcoming an that paint, Junior." "But I'm betting she's not here alone." "[GROANING]" "Stop her!" "Search every inch of the facility." "[GASPS]" "Girl, you look like turkey stuffing on Thanksgiving..." "Thank you, that's very helpful." " This was your escape route?" " No." "I was already here when the alarm sounded and the psychic link went down." " What happened up there?" " No idea." "Let's get to the rendezvous point and find cut." "Not back through the hangars." "They're sealed tight." "[GRUNTS]" "I've scanned the air shafts." "They connect all three hangars... but they also lead to a larger chamber 20 meters below." "Can you say Temple of Doom?" "This place must be thousands of years old." "What do you make of it, Batgirl?" "Batgirl?" "[YELLS]" "Are you serious?" "The rest of these kids are runaways." "Strays." "They won't be missed." "But a Bat-brat?" "Batman himself is out of the picture." "And if anyone else misses her, heh, Psimon says he just doesn't care." "Psimon, I like the way that pretty brain of yours thinks." "Thank you, Devastation." "Now help Mammoth load the cargo, Bat-brat included, onto the plane." "Shimmer, prepare for take-off, then go upstairs and confirm the flight plan." "I want this bird in the air in 10." "SCARAB:" "The plasma cannon would have provided a more direct tactic." "And vaporized Tye if he's inside." "[GRUNTING]" "SCARAB:" "Activating plasma cannon now!" " No." "Breaking and entering, kid?" "I ought to call the caps." "SCARAB:" "We are under attack." "Why do you resist?" "Destroy the Maurice." "I said no!" "No cops, huh?" "Then how about I teach you a lesson myself." "Is that what happened with Tye?" "Did you teach him a lesson too?" "Did you stuff him into that shed because someday he'll become a tribal chief... and you never will?" "[LAUGHING]" "Oh, kid, you've gut some funny ideas in that head of yours." "I don't wanna be chief." "Tribal leaders work for free." "I'm only interested in jobs that pay." "Sorry, I'm not buying it." "What is all this?" "Pirated DVDs and games?" "Unh." "Now forget you saw any of this or I will make you very sorry." "What about Tye?" "What have you done with him?" "I don't know where Shelly's punk kid is." "And I don't care." "[GRUNTS]" "SCARAB:" "Voice analysis confirms the Maurice speaks truth." "Yeah." "I gut that too." "I'll turn him in for the pirated stuff in this shed." "He'll get what he deserves." "But he really doesn't know what happened to Tye." "And neither do we." "It's been too long." "Something happened to Batgirl and Bee and it's all my fault for getting spotted." "Cassie, calm dawn." "Every mission takes an unexpected turn." "We recover and adapt." "That's rule one." " Sounds about right." " Ah!" "Bee, you're alive!" " Was that really in doubt?" " Have you seen Batgirl?" "Captured, so we have to go now." "I'll brief you both on the way." "I have a plan." "Cargo's secured." "Just need a couple more minutes to complete refueling." "[GASPS]" "Batgirl." "Batgirl, wake up." "You're really gonna make me do this, aren't you?" "Aah!" "Did you just...?" "Sorry." "We've got a cargo plane full of abductees here." "And you're the only one qualified to fly it to safety." "Which is ironic since you're the only one on Alpha who can't fly." "Yeah." "Ironic." "[ALARM WAILING]" "[ALL SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" "Shimmer, what are you...?" "Martian." "MISS MARTIAN:" "Hello, Psimon." "Ready for a rematch?" "Plane's fully fueled." "What's going on?" "PSIMON:" "The Martian is here." "Posing as Shimmer." "[GROWLS]" "PSIMON:" "We're engaged in psychic battle." "ICICLE:" "Dude, you don't exactly have a winning record against her." "PSIMON:" "I don't have to win." "I only have to hold her attention on the psychic plane... while you kill her in the material world." "ICICLE:" "Devastation's right, your brain is pretty." "[ENGINE WHIRRING]" "DEVASTATION:" "Wait!" "Who's at the controls?" "PSIMON:" "Mammoth, Devastation, stop that plane." "Junior, close the hangar door!" "[YELLING]" "[BANGING]" "Alpha?" "Little help?" "[GROANING]" "WONDER GIRL:" "Devastation!" "[ALL GRUNTING]" "This is for breaking my heart in Belle Reve, Martian." "[PSIMON YELLING]" "Psiman says enough!" "Bumblebee says good night." "Aah!" "Uh-oh." ""Uh-oh" is right." "[GRUNTING]" "Do you really think you stand a chance, blondie'?" "I've gone toe-to-toe with the actual Wonder Woman." "Yeah, but you never trained with her." "WONDER GIRL:" "Yes, we did it!" "Aah!" "[GROANING]" "It's too heavy!" "For me too." "Time for Plan B." "Good girl." "Woo-hoo!" "Yes!" "[LAUGHING]" "NIGHTWING:" "Psimon planted mental suggestions... in the minds of his doctors and nurses." "They've been tending to an empty hospital bed for months." "I'm sorry." " It had to happen eventually." " So no sign of any alien tech?" "None." "Though what we found was strange enough." "It was clear in Shimmer's mind that Queen Bee was acting as a middleman... delivering abducted humans to an unknown partner." "We questioned all the abductees." "Most were runaways." "All were kidnapped after the destruction of Malina Island and the Kroloteans." "Sc if the Bialyans weren't kidnapping humans for the Kralateans... then who is this partner?" "Ugh, another unanswered question." "New questions keep the investigation moving foward." "You saved lives." "And you got each other home safe." "That's a successful mission in my book." "Good work, Alpha." "Agh, huh?" "The loss of the cargo could have severely undermined our credibility." "Fortunately, we had already collected a second shipment." "Our partner should still be quite satisfied."
