Chapter 39 - Silva Trip

Angle on Ex-Lord’s hideout

Cut inside to Jameson and Ex-Lord. A CBot sticks the Eye of Agoro on the scepter, which glows and shoots green lightning

Jameson

“WHOAAAA!”

It stops suddenly

Ex-Lord

“Are you okay?”

Jameson blows a hole through the wall with the scepter, then laughs evilly

Jameson

“Hot tamales! I’ve never felt better! Woo!”

Ex-Lord

“Perfect! Now you finally have a use!”

Jameson

“So, let’s finish planning that raid!”

Ex-Lord

“Excellent... and I’ve prepared something I think you’ll like...”

Ex-Lord leads Jameson to a meeting room, inside of the room are various people. Laura Boyer, Frida and Grey, Wilson Sharp, Ricardio, and a massive shadowy figure.

Ex-Lord

“Gentlemen! It’s time we unite. Now that Jameson has reclaimed the Eye of Agoro, we will attack Randoms Tower, and steal Porta from right under Malcom’s nose! Who’s with me?”

They all cheer

Jameson

“Wow, you united all these people for me? Awww”

Ex-Lord

“Uh, no... I have a lot to gain by getting rid of Malcom too, he’s kinda the main threat to my entire operation... I honestly couldn’t care less about your dumb rivalry”

Jameson frowns

Ex-Lord

“Yeah... anyway, let’s get planning!”

Intro plays

Cut to Randoms INC, Alex, Lily and Paul are cleaning up after the New Years Eve party.

Paul

“What a night! And what a year this promises to be!”

Alex

“Yup! I’m in a good mood man!”

Paul chuckles. Then Tim and Malcom burst in looking extremely unhappy

Alex

“Guys! You’re back! How’d it go?”

Tim

“Uh, awful! It went awful!”

Malcom

“Alex! Where’s Tucker?!”

Alex

“Hedge Realm I think, there was this whole-“

Malcom

“Then we’re going! VAMOS!”

He and Tim start sprinting away

Lily

“Al, you should probably go too”

Alex

“Probably. WAIT UP!”

Alex runs after them

Cut to Tucker’s cabin, he’s practicing magic, all while looking at the picture of him and the monster

Then he hears a knock at his door, hastily covers the monster picture, then let’s them in

Tucker

“Gentlemen! How’s it going?”

Tim

“SHUT UP TRAITOR!”

Tucker

“Whoa, Tim, that’s no way to talk to your teacher”

Malcom

“Teacher huh? Wouldn’t be too sure of that...”

Tucker

“Is this about me not telling you about the Eye?”

Malcom

“No! This is about- uh, Tim show him the photo!”

Tim pulls out his phone, revealing to Tucker the photo of him, Warwick and the third unknown sorcerer

Tucker

“That’s still intact there?! Uh, I mean- Er... I’ve never seen this photo before in my life!”

Malcom looks furious, in fact, Everyone looks furious, as Tucker backs up

Tucker (nervously)

“So... it seems I have some confessing to do... hehe...”

Tim

“Gee ya think?!”

Tucker

“Er, ugh... well, I’m a titan...”

Alex

“Titan? Like ancient Greek titans?”

Tucker

“Well kinda? The myths aren’t entirely true. We weren’t immortal beings, just powerful warriors. See we were the first magic users, it came to our species naturally... Kronos was the one to first use magic against humans. Some could call him the first sorcerer. Eventually the titans died out, I’m the last one...”

Malcom

“Okay wow, backstory, that’s amazing, I DON’T CARE! EXPLAIN WHY YOU NEVER TOLD ME THAT YOU KNEW MY GREATEST ENEMY!”

Tucker

“I knew Warwick, and that third person. That’s Travis, he and Warwick were my students. We used to be great friends... I never suspected they had ulterior motives... Travis started the rebellion against society, freedom, self rule and democracy, with Warwick at his side. Eventually a battle took place where I defeated Travis. Travis died shortly afterwards, and Warwick took over, and that’s right about when Malcom joined the fight and... well, you know the rest...”

Malcom looks at Tucker, sees he’s being sincere, and sighs

Malcom

“Well, no more magic lessons, but... I guess Tucker’s fine...”

Tucker

“I know that was a lot to take in, I’m sorry I haven’t been honest with you all”

Malcom

“It’s fine, really”

Tucker looks gracious

They exit the cave, so Tucker won’t hear

Tim

“So what’s our next move! Jameson and Ex-Lord got the Eye of Agoro! If we’re even gonna stand a chance against them we need to learn more about the Eye!”

Malcom

“Y’know, I might have an idea for that!”

Hard cut to the break room. Malcom throws a map of America onto the table

Malcom

“Capital City! The center of the USA, the heart of freedom, the- uh- etcetera... anywho, since I have a good relationship with President Murray Pickett, he lives there, maybe he’d allow us to look around! There are lots of historical landmarks there, could find lots of clues! If we pack up now, we could leave as early as tomorrow!”

Tim

“You know President Murray Pickett?”

Malcom

“Yes! He’s a good man... probably...”

Alex

“Wait, leave tomorrow?! I have school now though!”

Malcom

“Oh right, I forgot about that”

Tim

“That scares me... school”

Lily

“I have school too!”

Malcom

“When did you get here?”

Lily

“Uh... just now... but I was interested in your road trip!”

Malcom

“Mmm... well, I guess since you’re kinda my adopted daughter kinda... yeah, alright, this is fine”

Lily and Alex look mortified at last episode’s events

Lily

“Great! That’s not awkward at all!”

Malcom

“Good to know, when does the semester end?”

Alex

“Four weeks”

Malcom

“Alright then... so guess I’ll have plenty of time to prepare! We have a plan baby!”

They all cheer

Cut back to Ex-Lord’s lair. The man himself is walking down the factory room, making sure everything is functioning. Suddenly Jameson bursts from a trash can

Jameson

“EXY!”

Ex-Lord

“Ugh, what?”

Jameson

“So, Y’know how we’re planning that massive raid on Randoms Tower?”

Ex-Lord

“Obviously. I united some powerful figures to prepare...”

Jameson

“Right, well I was thinking, maybe I could have a massive robot dinosaur? I drew a blueprint!”

He pulls out a crayon drawing

Jameson

“It would breathe fire, and be really tall, and-“

Ex-Lord

“That enthusiasm is golden! Keep it up kid! You’re going to be very valuable”

Jameson

“But-“

Ex-Lord walks off, and Jameson gets flustered

Jameson

“Meh...”

Cut to Ex-Lord’s office. Ex-Lord’s reading some papers, while also talking on the phone

Ex-Lord

“Yes, wonderful... old pub, three o’clock. Excellent, see ya there!”

He puts his phone down

Ex-Lord

“Fantastic...”

He sighs, removes his visor (but we can’t see his face), wipes his brow, then puts it back on.

Jameson bursts in

Jameson

“I brought a saaaaalaaaaaad! I knew you were starting that diet, so I thought you’d appreciate something a tad more, uh, refined!”

Ex-Lord

“Uh... thank you... but it kinda defeats the purpose if you put chicken in the salad...”

Jameson blushes

Jameson

“Well I-“

Ex-Lord

“Out”

Jameson

“Yes alright, leaving! But I want to have more contr-“

The door slams

Jameson

“CRAB IT!”

Cut downstairs, Jameson spots Laura and Wilson about to leave

Jameson

“Hey wait! You two... wow, you guys are fast”

Laura

“Oh. What do you want?”

Jameson

“I need you guys’s help! Ex-Lord won’t give me proper control, even though this was my idea!”

Laura

“What?”

Wilson just walks off

Laura

“Wait don’t leave me with- ugh forget it...”

Jameson

“Please! You’re the only person still richer than Malcom!”

Laura

“This is true... even if I can’t legally hurt his company anymore, that’s actually the main reason I joined you idiots... I want my daughter back! Malcom thought he could take her from me? That was his mistake!”

Jameson

“Okay, wow I really care- here’s the thing, this whole raid on Randoms Tower... which is edging really close, oh geez, uh yeah, that was my idea, and Exy is giving me NO CREDIT! I’m the one with the magic stick! Shou,don’t I be in charge?!”

Laura

“Yeah, well Jameson... technically you were also the first rival to fall to Malcom. I mean you merged companies way before me and Robert signed his stupid peace treaty contracts...”

Jameson

“What? I literally quit so I could-“

Laura

“Quit? You mean you weren’t fired?”

Jameson

“Oh... right... yeah I was fired...”

Laura

“Oh... Kay byyyyye”

She leaves

Jameson

“I NEED HELP- oh she’s gone... dang it...”

Ricardio watches him from the other side of the room, contemplating something

Cut back to the Silvas, now heading to the outlet mall

Malcom

“Oh lord, I swore I’d never go here... but desperate times call for desperate measures...”

Alex

“Why can’t we just order everything online? We have time”

Malcom

“Oh yeah, and just admit defeat? Talk to the hand!”

Tim

“Ha! Hand jokes!”

Lily

“It’s funny because... uh... hand!”

Tim

“Exactly! That’s exactly what I was thinking!”

They high five

Alex

“Uh, I can high five too right?”

Lily

“Yeah, of course”

Tim

“Bring it in bro!”

They have a three way high-five

Malcom

“Okay... let’s go in!”

They enter the shopping mall, it’s full of customers walking around

Malcom

“Woof... this is very... uh... very crowded”

Tim

“Well let’s form a game plan! Separate the shops less likely to hav things we need!”

Malcom

“So like, cut out the CreaTech shop... pet shop... maybe the bakery...”

He stands thinking for a minute

Malcom

“Okay, better yet... split up, you three go by yourselves and grab supplies, while I handle the stuff that’s a bit more hard to find! Sound good?”

Tim

“Spiffing!”

Malcom

“Pretty sure that isn’t a word, let’s roll!”

They split off

Alex walks over to a Outdoor Activity store

Alex

“Hmm... that should have everything we need... Dang Malcom should’ve written a list, ah well...”

He walks in, and spots the clerk

Alex

“Excuse me! Do you have any- uh- lanterns?”

Clerk

“Of course... why- why wouldn’t we?”

Alex

“Uh, no reason, forgive me I’m socially awkward”

Clerk

“Hey man no sweat! If ya want I could give you a tour of the store”

Alex

“Oh I’d like that very much”

Clerk

“Great! GERTIE!”

Gertie tumbles in

Gertie

“Sorry Andrew, yeah I’m covering it now!”

Clerk

“Excellent! Follow me young man”

Gertie sighs, as Alex and the clerk walk off

Clerk

“Let’s start with drinking canteens!”

Alex glances back at her, and continues walking

Tim and Lily approach a “Subject,” this world’s version of Hot Topic

Tim

“Hmm... since Malcom didn’t really specify any specific stores...”

Lily

“You wanna go in there?”

Tim

“Oh absolutely!”

They run in

Tim and Lily

“Whoa!”

They look around, everything is super dark and edgy (they stand out like a sore thumb).

Lily

“Wow, this place is so cool!”

Tim

“Right? We’d be lucky to be half this cool!”

Lily

“Less! Like a third!”

The clerk (who is very angsty, and covered in makeup) sits behind the counter, bored looking

Tim

“Hey there!”

Clerk

“Uuuuuuuuugh... welcome to Spicy Subject, how may I help you”

Tim

“Well my fine... uh... person, I-“

Clerk

“I’m sorry? Sir?”

Tim

“Wait what, I-“

Clerk

“Are you wearing a vintage 1976 Andi Jacket?”

Tim

“Yeah, why?”

Clerk

“The man who started that jacket’s manufacturing corporation was a disgrace to America, and the human race! He made a highly insensitive joke, at a cat!s expense! That cat was grieving! We need to get you some new clothes!”

Tim

“Alright... man... I’m not caught up with socially acceptable behavior at all!”

Lily

“Yeah...”

Clerk

“To the clothing aisle! Follow me...”

Cut to Malcom, in front of a dollar store

Malcom

“Yep, my kind of place...”

Malcom enters, only to see the place is empty

Malcom

“Hello?”

Gertie (who suddenly popped up behind him)

“Hi!”

Malcom

“AGH! Whoa, uh, hey?”

Gertie

“I’m Gertie, I work here... uh, yeah! What can I help you with?”

Malcom

“I’m going on a big trip with my family, need supplies!”

Gertie

“Cool! I can help you with that!”

Malcom

“Okay great!”

Cut back to Jameson, who is lounging sadly. Ricardio walks over to him

Ricardio

“Is that Jameson Mameson?! Arch enemy of Malcom Silva?”

Jameson

“Huh? Oh... yeah...”

Ricardio

“Why the long face? You aren’t a horse! HA!”

Jameson

“Well, I wanted to lead the raid on Randoms Tower, but now Ex-Lord has his new alliance, and I’ve been reduced to an accessory!”

Ricardio

“Y’know who’s part of that dark alliance? ME! Ricardio! I think I could figure out how to get you to a more respected position in Ex-Lord’s book! Listen here!”

Jameson

“I’m listening...”

Ricardio performs a musical number about how to make Jameson a better villain

Jameson

“I’m sorry, who are you again?”

Ricardio

“Ricardio Silva? Malcom’s brother”

Jameson

“EW! Why would I take your advice! Goodbye!”

Jameson walks off

Ricardio

“Oh... alright then...”

Cut back to the mall, Alex is still mid-tour

Clerk

“And over here are our collection of tents, and that’s where the tour ends... because I’m bored... keep shopping, guns are further down if you’re interested”

The clerk walks off

Alex

“Okay thanks! Hmm”

He looks at the tents for awhile, then glances over to see Gertie behind the counter, looking very tired. Alex walks over

Alex

“Overwork, I assume?”

Gertie

“Oh you have no idea”

Alex

“Meh, I can relate”

Gertie

“No, you- you really can’t”

Alex

“Yes, I really can!”

Gertie

“Okay... um... so the space-time continuum-“

Clerk

“GERTIE!”

She shuts up, because the clerk looks very threatening

Alex

“Uh, that was weird... anyway, I’m just gonna buy some lanterns, then I’ll- uh... yeah y’know...”

Cut to Tim and Lily, in the employees only room

Lily

“This took a turn”

Tim

“Yep”

The clerk walks up

Clerk

“Alright, got some digs. We’re gonna make you look like a total unit!”

Tim

“That’s a thing people say?”

Clerk

“Oh absolutely!”

Lily

“Seems like something that’ll be outdated, in like, like a month”

Clerk

“Yeah probs, so is the way of life... alright Tim, let’s show the world the new you!”

Cut to the entrance to Spicy Subject, Tim walks out, wearing leather, hair died blue, and he’s got a massive earring

Tim

“Yo, I’m so cool looking... BUT I FEEL AWFUL! Everything I’m wearing is so uncomfortable!”

Clerk

“Meh, you’ll live!”

He shuts them out

Lily

“Aw... you got gipped”

Tim

“Yeah...”

Brief silence

Tim

“I NEED MY JACKET BACK!”

Cut inside the Spicy Subject, the clerk throws Tim’s jacket onto Gertie (again)

Clerk

“Burn this”

Gertie

“Right away sir! My life is awful...”

Cut to the fountain, Malcom is waiting for Tim, Alex and Lily

Malcom

“Where are they? Tim, Alex and Lily are gonna be talked to after this!”

They all walk up to him

Malcom

“Oh good, kids are here! What we got?”

Alex

“Stuff!”

Tim

“Depression”

Lily

“Tim’s going through a lot right now...”

Tim

“I saw through the window! That dumb clerk threw my jacket on some girl with a side ponytail!”

Alex

“A what?! I had a girl with a side ponytail too! Her name was Gertie!”

Malcom

“No way, ME TOO! But we all went to different stores at the same time! What’s happening?”

Lily

“Well whatever! We need to save Tim’s jacket!”

Tim

“Yeah! Jacket rescue!”

Alex

“I feel like Gertie’s more important than Tim’s jacket”

Tim

“But it’s my trademark... plus, y’know, Gertie herself is gonna burn it? Where’s a better place to start investigating, than Gertie herself!”

Alex

“Heh, I see what you did there!”

Malcom

“Okay, let’s not waste anymore time! C’mon!”

Cut back to Jameson, outside Ex-Lord’s office

Jameson

“So, uh... Exy? Can I come in now?”

Ex-Lord (muffled)

“Yes actually, you’re exactly who I wanted to talk to”

Jameson bursts in

Jameson

“Perfect! I was starting to worry-“

Ex-Lord

“Jameson, you’re moving out...”

Brief silence

Jameson

“What?”

Ex-Lord

“What with the new alliance staying here, there’s no... uh... room for you anymore... yeah... so I managed to reserve a small cave right outside Porta City Limits. So uh, you’ll live there until we need you”

Jameson

“But I- I don’t-“

Ex-Lord

“Hey, it’s alright! You’re still part of the team! Just the least useful, even with your new powers!”

Jameson

“I don’t-“

Ex-Lord

“Anywho, Wilson Sharp has so graciously offered to drive you to your new place! Begone!”

Jameson

“But I- wait I- I- *sigh* okay...”

Ex-Lord turns around in his seat, and Jameson walks off sadly

They run back to Spicy Subject, burst in, run into the employees only room, to see Gertie about to drop Tim’s jacket in a fireplace

Tim

“NO WAIT!”

Gertie

“Eep! Is this yours? Please take it! Forgive me!”

Tim

“Uh... okay?”

He takes it

Gertie

“Yeah, sorry about that...”

Malcom

“So uh... explain?”

Gertie

“Well... it’s complicated?”

They all look intrigued

Gertie

“So I’m... a time traveler... I’m using time travel to work extra hours here, so I can work off my debt...”

Malcom

“Wow, time travel eh? Where did you get the ability to do that?!”

Gertie

“The owner of the mall found it in a trash can, looked like a calculator”

Malcom

“It... what...”

Gertie

“Yeah, a calculator... that’s what I said...”

Malcom

“That’s... THAT’S MINE!”

Lily

“What?!”

Alex

“Oh yeah, you weren’t there, it was a whole thing”

Tim (cheerfully)

“I’ve regretted it ever since”

Malcom

“I NEED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS!”

Gertie

“You can always check security cameras”

Malcom

“THEN THAT IS WHAT I’LL DO!”

Cut to the security room, on the monitor, we see Ricardio throw it away smugly

Malcom

“Not all too surprising, but frustrating nevertheless...”

???

“WHA?!”

Gertie

“Oh no-“

Malcom

“What?”

They turn to see a man in a suit in the doorway

???

“Gertie! How D A R E you slack on the job, to help this... MAN!”

Gertie

“Oh no, here we go...”

Malcom

“Hey, who even are you?”

Manager

“THE MANAGER! You?”

Malcom

“Ugh... okay look, I’m Malcom Silva, C.E.O. of Randoms INC, defeater of the sorcerers, and a friend of Mayor Professional Blond Man”

Manager

“The mayor?! I- uh... oh...”

Malcom

“And Gertie here is using time travel to work extra hours for your stupid mall, this literally effects NOTHING! In fact... give her a raise...”

Manager

“Uh, very good, will do!”

Gertie smiles

Malcom

“If that will be all, I’ll be going now. Farewell!”

He leaves

Cut back to Randoms Tower, the family is gathered

Malcom

“Okay, we got a good start on prepping for the trip, Alex, we are leaving the day school ends! Understand?”

Alex

“Yup”

Malcom

“Good... also kids... thanks...”

He walks out, and all three look touched

Cut to Jameson, who has arrived at his new home... a gross cave with a mini cooler and sleeping bag

Jameson

“It’s not so bad... could be... a caveyer cave! Yeah okay this sucks... what have you become Jameson?!”

???

“What indeed...”

Jameson jumps, and turns to his scepter

Jameson

“Did you just-“

???

“Yes, yes I did...”

Jameson

“My cool stick CAN TALK?!”

???

“You could say that *chuckles*... now then, down to business...”

Jameson

“What do you mean?”

???

“Well... Ex-Lord doesn’t seem to respect you much does he?”

Jameson looks flustered

???

“Not to worry... once I’m done with you, you’ll be just the leader you’ve always wanted to be...”

Jameson

“But my dream is to conquer Randoms INC!”

???

“Is that so? Well, looks like you have a target... we just need to, er, fine tune your skills...”

Jameson smirks evilly
