Outside as the villains unload from their varied and signature cars in costume one by one, all likely insane ...

Now crowded inside, sign by the door says 'No Banter'. ~
Eddie - "Wait. All of you. And None off you could kill them ? Have you never like ... tried ? You know, like 'teamed up' before ?"
Number Nine - "Oh we have. Every combination and configuration but we never did try just doing simple hits."
Alien Agenda (Ambrose from Diver Deep with a mask) - "It took a weak human to think of it. We all were thinking about honor and such."
Calibrate - "The challenge ... heh."
Eddie - "Huh. We I just can't fucking stand them. Let's get it done."
The Minister - "The problem is, they are truly like that. That which you hate about them, incestuous whores though they may be that insidious laughter and bravado ... it's the way they really are."
Eddie - "God I knew it ... it was easier to accept when I though they were full of shit but then one interview I realized. They were not fucking with me."
Alien Agenda - "That's the horrifying reality. So long as they are so unbelievably inane, fate itself seem to protect them. But poisoning them. Ha ! Love it."
Eddie - "Yeah I don't know if that'll work on all of them."
Organica - "Better than that. What about expanding food ? On contact with saliva it grows and clogs the throat ... they'll be dead of no air before the first ambulance and they'd have to slit their throats to remove it. So at least there'd be that."
They nod considering the suffering ...
Eddie - "Won't work on Rock Solid though ... "
Calibrate - "Hand grenade."
Eddie - "Seriously ?"
Colonel Calibrate - "Seriously. I took a chunk out once."
Number Nine - "I remember that. Good times ... which team up was that ?"
Colonel Calibrate - "Legion of Legions."
The Minister - "I read about that one in the paper."
Eddie - "Yeah I took the pictures, the five are the ones who destroyed most of the city as per fucking usual but what's your power again ?"
The Minister - Grins ... "Wrath."
Eddie - "Wrath."
Number Nine - "Oh yeah he makes good wrath."
The Minister - "But They ... will Never be in front of the bullet."
Colonel Calibrate - "We've all shot at them, they're worse than bullet proof. You just don't hit them."
Alien Agenda - "Because they're morons."
Eddie - "I actually get that. So the key is, bringing them to the bullet."
...
Organica - "But they do all eat."
Colonel - "And hand grenades."

Maria - "Late night celebrating your front page shot ?"
Eddie - "Concocting my master plan to kill the Fabulous Five."
Maria - "God I wish. To never have to interview a fucking rock again ... "
Eddie - A laugh, "Working on it. Going out or staying in ?"
Maria - "Let's stay in."
Eddie - "No news."
Maria - "Pinky promise."
