0:13
Obviously I love him, he's my dad.
0:19
What does that mean? Just say what you want to say.
0:23
It's just when you add, obviously it feels a little less
0:26
obvious. So I'll ask again, how do you
0:30
really feel about your father? It's as if maybe it's a little
0:34
more complicated than you feel comfortable admitting, which is
0:38
completely understandable. Look, I love my dad, all right?
0:43
I love my dad. That's the truth.
0:46
Loved. That's what I said.
0:48
You said love. Your dad's dead, so you don't
0:50
love him. You loved him.
0:53
Just so sensitive. Listen, if I didn't love him, we
0:56
wouldn't be here, right? We don't have to get into it.
1:00
Nope, we're in it now. Why would I be trying to find
1:02
the man who killed him if I didn't love him?
1:04
Why would I be doing any of this shit?
1:09
My nose is bleeding. Thought I was getting
1:11
emotionally snotty. No, it's probably from when I
1:14
kicked you in the face. Yeah, thanks for reminding me.
1:18
So here's what's going to happen.
1:21
I'm going to hang you off the side of this building and you're
1:24
going to tell me where Shroud is or I'm going to drop you to your
1:28
death. Come on, I thought we were
1:30
having a breakthrough. Hey we did you know for being a
1:33
real piece of shit you're pretty easy to talk to, but the only
1:36
breakthrough I need right now is the location of shroud.
1:41
I'm not telling you shit, you fucking loser.
1:44
See this is more like how I thought this.
1:46
Would I hope Shroud kills you just like he killed your father?
1:48
I hope he fucking spanks your little daddy as you bitch ass to
1:51
death. You hear me?
1:53
Are we outside? Windy up here tonight.
1:55
Why are we outside? No telling where you live.
1:58
Smells like outside smells. Wait, wait, wait.
2:02
Wait, I have neighbors. Use your inside voice and just
2:06
tell me where shroud is. OK OK.
2:09
Steel Steel mill. Llewellyn.
2:12
Llewellyn steel works. OK.
2:13
Fuck. You sure about that?
2:15
Yes. Please, that's all I know.
2:17
Stop screaming, God damn it. Hey, hey, hey.
2:21
I will. Pull you up.
2:22
If you quiet the fuck down, Sir, if you want something to scream
2:33
about, I'll give you something to scream about.
2:37
Oh no. No.
2:44
No, you piece of shit. Hey, I ruined a perfectly good
2:48
mattress to make sure you didn't die, OK?
2:51
You're welcome. No.
5:36
All right, next one. Just one more.
6:49
Hey, can I get a copy of that video when we're through here?
6:54
Because it's over Shroud and it would be nice to watch that back
6:58
at a different angle. Oh no.
7:00
It's over, Shroud. All this build up face to face
7:05
with your father's killer and you come in here with that lame
7:08
shit. Where the fuck is Shroud?
7:10
He'll be here in a bit. Oh hey, after our conversation I
7:14
asked him about your dad. Fun little tidbit, he was very
7:18
well hydrated. Turns out right after Shroud
7:21
shot him in the chest. Your dad pissed.
7:23
His pants. But you didn't know that, huh?
7:26
So after that bullet tore through his insides, he still
7:29
had enough time to know how absolutely fucked he was.
7:34
Just pissed himself like a little bitch.
7:36
It was like so much piss because your dad was wearing shorts.
7:40
So just kept. I get it.
8:04
Starting to think I didn't need to waste a perfectly good
8:07
mattress to break your fall perfectly.
8:09
Good. I assume that cum stain thing
8:12
was already in the dumpster. Can.
8:13
We just skip to the part where you reveal your bullshit
8:16
superpower so we can fight for real
8:30
cool Dick. So you got some kind of clever
8:33
supervillain name. You can call me toxic bro.
8:37
That works on so many levels for you.
8:39
Yeah, no shit, that's the point. Your trout's augments are pretty
8:47
good when normies like you use them when you put them on
8:50
someone who already has powers. Fucking chef's kiss.
11:59
None. So what do you got left on them
12:20
Shields? I said 40%, but Boss Man says
12:23
you're down to 28 and he is not wrong about that thing.
12:31
Good news, buddy. Trout says he just wants the
12:34
Astro Pulse, which we all know isn't really yours anyway.
12:51
System check, calculate the damage per second hitting
12:54
Shields, then tell me how many seconds I need to divert Astral
12:57
Pulse energy to Rocket Boosters 12. .89 seconds of damage before
13:03
critical. Oh hey Boss Man says if you're
13:05
planning on diverting sorry pulse power to the boosters it
13:09
won't work. This is a limited time offer.
13:13
Dude what's up? You were so fucking talkative
13:15
earlier. I'm just the messenger here.
13:20
You said you're not calculating that your leg, dumb ass.
13:25
Fuck it. It was just over four months ago
14:53
that images like this were recorded across the Southland.
14:56
Videos flooded social media and our newsroom showing what menu?
15:00
Got to. Read The Death of Mecca Man
15:05
again. For nearly 50 years, a Mecca Man
15:09
has protected Los Angeles. Built by an ordinary civilian
15:13
with no superpowers, this first suit was dubbed by some fans as
15:18
Mecca Man Prime 3. Generations of pilots, their
15:22
identities kept secret, have given everything to protect this
15:25
community, including their lives.
15:28
After the tragic passing of Prime, the next Mecca Man, known
15:32
as Astral, teamed up with a star-studded superhero group
15:36
known as the Brave Brigade, leading to an unprecedented
15:39
period of peace in the Southland.
15:42
After years of loyal service, tragedy struck again when
15:45
Shroud, a former Brave Brigade member turned villain, killed
15:49
the pilot of Mecca Man. In cold blood.
15:52
But yet again, as hope was lost, a third generation of Mecca Man
15:56
emerged, A Mecca Man for the modern era, a bulwark against
16:01
organized crime in the greater Los Angeles area.
16:04
Until today. Earlier today, Mecca Man broke
16:08
his silence and addressed the media.
16:21
There's been a lot of speculation about my health in
16:24
the state of the Mecca Man suit, and I'm here to put that
16:27
speculation to rest. The suit has been damaged beyond
16:30
my ability to repair, so I will be stepping back from superhero
16:34
work effective immediately. Does.
16:38
This mean you're finished you. Repair your snacks from Mecca
16:40
man. Does this mean your career is
16:42
over? One at a time, please.
16:45
Ashley Rynes, San Pedro Daily Do you have anything to say to your
16:49
fans? The public outpouring the
16:51
vigils, a lot of them were worried you wouldn't wake up.
16:56
Everything I've done, every sacrifice me and my family have
16:58
made has been for the people of Los Angeles.
17:03
Next question. Chris.
17:05
Stratton Torrance Tribune Does this mean you're retiring as
17:08
Mecca? Man?
17:09
Word on the street is you're dunzo.
17:11
Are you 100 years old or are you talking like that?
17:15
Answer the question, buddy boy, are you retiring?
17:18
My readers need the skinny and I aim to deliver.
17:21
Let's get it on the record. I'm not looking to comment on
17:24
that just yet. That's the only skinny I can
17:27
give you. All right, just one more,
17:30
please. I got to get back to just just
17:33
one more. Preferably someone from the
17:35
century. Charles Kingsley, South Bay
17:38
Signal So Shroud kills your father, goes to jail 15 years,
17:44
breaks out and immediately dupes you into a trap where he
17:47
destroys the Mecca man suit and puts you in a coma for months.
17:53
I didn't hear a question in there.
17:55
Two parter first, why didn't Shroud kill you?
17:59
You haven't been conscious for months.
18:02
It'd be easy money taking you out.
18:04
OK, Shroud wanted the Astral Pulse and Mecca Man gone.
18:08
He got both. I'm not sure I mattered much.
18:11
Right, you're unimportant. Which leads me to my next
18:15
question. Most heroes avenge their family.
18:18
You did the opposite. You killed their legacy.
18:23
How disappointed would your dad be if he were here right now?
18:28
Your father, your grandfather, they must be rolling over in
18:32
their graves. I think he'd be proud because
18:37
I'm alive, which, as you so sensitively pointed out, he
18:42
isn't. I think he knows that I
18:45
sacrificed everything and that I did my best being mecha man.
18:49
Protecting my community was the greatest honor I'll ever have.
18:54
Now I have to live knowing that. Thank you for coming.
19:09
Up next is Mecca Man, a Mecca quitter.
19:14
Yeah, I mean. It seemed like it'd be better if
19:16
he died than. Be a Mecca coward.
19:18
You know what kind of example is he setting?
19:22
Stay tuned to find out. Hey, assholes.
19:42
Yeah, just put the TV's back and you can leave.
19:45
I won't say anything to the cops.
19:47
And this doesn't need to escalate.
19:49
Hey. What are you?
19:50
Calling assholes asshole. I'll handle.
19:53
This idiot. Keep loading, we're out of.
19:55
Here in 30. And who the fuck?
19:57
Are you? Yeah, you go go fucking hobo
20:01
Ranger. Who the fuck are you?
20:06
Right now I'm someone with nothing to lose, which is
20:09
probably bad news for you. Well.
20:11
With nothing you have, you're about to.
20:13
Lose again. Whatever the case, I'm going to
20:16
have to deal with a pack of fucking Skittles idiots like
20:18
you. God.
20:21
Damn it, look, you're. Hurt.
20:24
You're not thinking straight. You don't want to fight someone
20:27
who knows which hand every punch is coming from.
20:52
What the? That guy I threw, he landed on
21:06
the roof, right? Oh good.
21:10
Phew. Hi, I'm blonde Blazer.
21:13
I work over at Superhero Dispatch Network.
21:16
Hey, Hi. Yeah, I know who you are.
21:19
You're like, famous. Oh, I don't know about that.
21:24
I'm just a corporate hero for hire.
21:28
You're the real deal. You're the famous. 1 right.
21:34
I don't think infamous is the same as famous, but.
21:38
Oh God, your arm fuck. Oh, yeah, that's gross.
21:44
Yeah. You look like some kind of mime
21:47
DJ. Let me see it, I'll help you.
21:52
Usually dislocates the other way.
21:54
OK. But have you done this before?
21:56
Because maybe. OK, Wow.
22:01
That's that's OK. Thank you.
22:06
One of them is on that roof. You look like you could use a
22:13
drink. What makes you say that they
22:17
were? All Skittles colored.
22:29
I didn't even realize. That Yeah, well, you know what?
22:31
They can taste the rainbow in jail.
22:34
What do you mean like different colored Dicks?
22:40
Sorry. I actually didn't know what I
22:42
meant, but you know what? It should have been that.
22:45
I'm a little buzzed. I don't really make jokes like
22:47
that. I think Vizzy's rubbing off on
22:50
me. Who?
22:52
Someone I work with, it's yeah. I can't tell which one of us had
23:06
the rough day. Oh no, I had a great day.
23:10
Well, that's not totally true. Oh, you're joking.
23:15
Sorry, it's fine, don't worry about keeping up.
23:19
Something to do with the powers it.
23:21
It takes a lot for me to feel anything.
23:25
What is that sentence? Hey, you should give yourself
23:30
more credit to do what you did for as long as you did,
23:34
especially without superpowers. Not true.
23:37
What do you call this? I can fix that one for you too,
23:41
no? Thanks, I like this one.
23:44
Thank you. So how did you afford all that?
23:51
You must have spent hundreds of thousands of.
23:54
Millions so you'll understand when the check comes.
23:57
You're serious. Millions.
24:00
Yeah, I basically burned through my entire inheritance keeping it
24:03
going. The last couple years I've just
24:06
been duct tape and sheer termination.
24:11
Why did you do it? Do what?
24:13
Sacrifice everything to be a superhero to the point of
24:16
financial. Ruin.
24:19
I was going to say hardship, but ruin was the first word that
24:22
came to mind. Yeah, you must be completely
24:25
broke at this point. In retrospect, I don't really
24:31
know. Now that's a sad sentence.
24:36
Yes, it is. So are you drunk yet or what?
24:46
Yeah, yeah, I should probably be switching to water.
24:49
Good, because I was hoping after some drinks to loosen you up, I
24:53
could learn a little more about you and if all that went well,
24:59
present you with a proposition. A proposition.
25:04
Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out if this is a fit or not, you
25:07
know? Then it's just a matter of
25:09
picking the right moment. Well, I have to say, Blazer,
25:13
that does sound intriguing. That's actually not water.
25:20
Not this is like pure alcohol. It's not like alcohol.
25:23
It is alcohol. I know because you spit it
25:26
directly into my open mouth. That's water that see how it has
25:31
ice in it. You drink hard liquor from a
25:33
pint glass. Actually, I usually just drink
25:35
it straight from the bottle, but I thought that would be
25:38
embarrassing. I'm going to go clean.
25:43
Up. I'm so sorry.
25:45
No, it's fine. I will be right back.
25:51
What are you doing? Hey bitch, hey bitch all.
26:02
Right, just so you know, I only turned around because someone
26:04
yelled, not because I'm a bitch or anything.
26:07
Don't you watch the news? This is a superhero bar.
26:11
Oh wow, are you a superhero? That's so cool.
26:15
This is your power. You're like, tell people.
26:18
Obvious shit guy. Why are you really going to have
26:22
You don't Remember Me? Wait, it's coming back to me.
26:26
Hold on. Yeah, it's coming back to me.
26:29
Oh, wait, wait. Oh I know it.
26:34
You are a doctor, don't do shit. Your deal is you walk up to
26:37
people, look threatening, talk a big game, then don't do shit
26:40
about it. Also, you're not a real doctor
26:43
because you're a fucking idiot. That.
26:49
Is damn feel good? Sorry.
26:51
I choked in my spit. No, like a bitch, I control the
26:58
fire. The fire.
27:00
And the flame and my skin does not burn.
27:04
I am flambe. And you wait.
27:08
Oh shit, I do remember you. You're that shitty villain I
27:11
busted up. Not anymore like a Dick, as I
27:15
literally just said I am flambe a real superhero and you are not
27:21
like a man anymore so you need to get the fuck out of here.
27:26
No, we can do this the easy way. Sorry, which way was that?
27:34
Hey. No punch up.
27:38
You're. Literally fanning the flames
27:39
right now. Shit.
27:41
Yeah, you're right. Anybody got a rug?
27:46
You got a drop and roll lad. Thought he doesn't burn.
27:52
Some people become scared. Before they even.
27:54
Know they're hurt like babies. Hey mecha Dick, get the fuck out
28:06
of here. I get it.
28:08
Can you just tell Blazer I'm outside?
28:13
Relax, I'm breathing. Hey, I couldn't find you.
28:29
It's cool, I was just admiring the art in this dumpster.
28:34
I can't tell why anyone would put those words together.
28:39
Why are you holding drinks? Nightcap.
28:41
You're in trouble. Actually, according to the
28:44
bartender, that's exactly what you are.
28:47
What happened in there? I walk out and the bartender's
28:50
pissed. The whole energy is awkward.
28:53
And why did it smell like burnt hair?
28:58
Yeah, it's crazy. This guy, he just fell down.
29:01
A guy fell down. Yeah, does that not sound
29:06
convincing enough? I hold these.
29:08
I know a place. It's done.
29:12
It's a little out there, easier if we fly.
30:06
I actually thought you were taking us to sit on it.
30:09
Oh yeah, that would have been cool.
30:13
I know. Yeah, this, this is better
30:15
'cause you can see it and it, it looks like there's a couple up
30:18
there already, so. I really appreciate you coming
30:20
to my rescue back there. I still think I could have
30:22
handled it, but all I'm trying to say is thanks.
30:28
I should have just said that, but yeah, I'm still talking.
30:33
Don't you worry about it, Robert Robertson.
30:40
How do you know my name? Oops.
30:44
What's going on? OK, I'll tell you, but only
30:48
after you tell me how you ended up with a name like that.
30:52
Oh, you mean a name like Robert Robertson the Third?
30:54
The third three times this happened.
30:58
There was Grandpa Bobby, then my dad, who I called Dad, but
31:02
everyone else called Robbie and then me Robert because I wanted
31:07
to be taken seriously. Family tradition.
31:10
In more ways than one, Gramps was the first Mecca man.
31:14
He died in the Sioux before I was born.
31:17
Dad was killed fighting Shroud. That's when I took over.
31:21
There was a little inheritance and the life insurance money.
31:25
I'm so sorry, I didn't realize. Just your run-of-the-mill sad
31:31
superhero origin story. The family tradition, if there
31:35
is one, is dying in that suit, which I guess I don't have to
31:40
worry about anymore. What is it?
31:45
I'm not quite drunk enough to share my origin story just yet,
31:50
but remind me to tell you someday.
31:54
Definitely. Sorry, I'm actually here with a
32:25
purpose. The way I went about things
32:29
tonight, I'm sorry. It was all a little loose, a
32:33
little unprofessional. Unprofessional.
32:36
I'm not sure that that applies to this.
32:40
I'm actually here on official business.
32:42
How I know your name? The proposition I mentioned
32:45
right before you spit in my mouth.
32:47
Still mortified about that. It's fine.
32:50
Do you remember a superhero named Track *?
32:53
Remember, of course, he's like family that I haven't talked to
32:57
in a while. What about him?
32:59
I work with him at SDN. He recommended you, mentioned
33:03
that he worked with your father. Yeah, he was the youngest member
33:06
of the Brave Brigade, so he was kind of my babysitter for a
33:10
while. How's he doing?
33:12
He's doing great. He's he's why I'm here.
33:17
Robert, I would like to make you an offer in exchange for
33:21
dispatching and mentoring some of our rookie heroes.
33:25
SDN can make you Mecca Man again, but this time with all
33:29
the resources that accompany as big as ours has at their
33:31
disposal. No more paying out of pocket for
33:34
repairs, support staff, the whole shebang.
33:38
My suit was totally destroyed. I saw the report, studied the
33:43
footage. It's not totally destroyed, just
33:47
mostly it's a big investment. It'll take considerable time and
33:54
money to get the suit repaired and the missing pieces replaced.
33:58
Plenty of time to learn how to dispatch and level up some of
34:01
the heroes on our roster. Your experience, your work
34:05
ethic, your perspective, it's all invaluable.
34:10
Share it Robert, you have a lot left to give.
34:14
And what if I say no? Then I'll hate you forever and
34:19
they'll push you off this billboard.
34:21
Wow. Yeah.
34:22
And no one suspect a thing. Nope, not a one.
34:27
Wait, so you want me dispatching?
34:30
What's that even mean? Oh right, I was supposed to test
34:33
you at the bar here. The drunk people shouldn't be
34:37
throwing things at drunk. People noted.
34:41
Am I waiting or are you waiting? What's going?
34:44
On. It was supposed to open up when
34:46
I threw it to you. OK, there, pop it on.
34:49
This is part of the assessment. And don't move too much in
34:52
there. You're sitting on the edge of
34:54
the Billboard. Greetings and welcome to this
34:59
training simulation. We may be superheroes, but we're
35:03
nothing without SDN's real hero, the dispatcher.
35:08
So, dispatcher, where do we start?
35:15
Well, well, it appears we've got our first call from a
35:19
subscriber. I saw some scary suspicious.
35:23
Men last night. Leaving the old movie theater.
35:26
You'll receive requirements to help you determine which heroes
35:29
to send. Such an array of brave heroes to
35:35
choose from. How could you possibly pick just
35:39
one? This graph will show you what a
35:42
hero does well and not so well. A hero with a knack for vigor
35:49
and combat looks right for the job.
35:54
That sounds like me. Now that at least one hero is
36:01
being dispatched, it's time to get to work.
36:06
A wise choice. I will now return to SDN.
36:22
When a hero returns to SDN, they'll need some much needed
36:26
R&R. That stands for Rest and
36:29
Relaxation. Don't forget to review your
36:36
hero's performance. They won't be sent out again
36:39
until you do. On SDN state-of-the-art graph,
36:45
we can see an analysis of what skills the call required.
36:51
Let's see how well I did after responding to that caller's,
36:55
well, call. There's no such thing as a
37:02
perfect fit. Use your intellect and your
37:05
roster to your advantage. The more that my skills align
37:10
with the needs of the job, the more likely I am to succeed.
37:24
Organized criminals, often led by figurehead super villains,
37:28
are the scourge of Southern California.
37:30
We work tirelessly to root them out.
37:40
We've got a potential villain hideout on the college campus.
37:43
Sometimes the solution is brains, not brown.
37:46
SDN's diverse array of heroes can solve any problem.
38:09
Gladly, if these streets can talk,
38:43
what can I say? A lot, actually.
39:04
Let me balance the skills. One of your heroes needs you as
39:14
their leader. Your heroes will look to you,
39:17
make choices, and follow where they lead.
39:34
These choices need the right skill.
39:37
Remember each of your hero's strengths and weaknesses.
39:50
Convoy of Diablo. 'S goons are harrying the
39:52
highway. Patrol.
39:54
As if traffic in this city was not bad enough.
39:57
Speaking of traffic and going places, does SDN offer paid time
40:03
off to take vacations? Of course, PTO accrues at a
40:07
regular rate over time. Use it however you like, as long
40:11
as you discuss your schedule with your manager well in
40:13
advance. What?
40:14
The fuck is a PTO? Justice will prevail.
40:22
A sound approach. There's a giant monster
40:25
attacking downtown. Same.
40:27
As SDN. The smart choice.
40:53
I need help getting to my doctor's appointment.
40:59
No sooner said than done. Oh God, no.
41:06
Help us. We're being held hostage.
41:08
Send help please. You can find suggestions on how
41:11
to handle hostage situations on page 234 of SDN's Guide to
41:16
Dispatch it. Flattery will get you
41:18
everywhere. SDN values work life balance.
41:23
When the bell rings, your shift will end very soon.
41:31
Folks call me justice. Sometimes a hero can use their
41:39
talents to tip the scales. They are superheroes after all.
41:51
El Diablo's threat has been eliminated.
41:55
The children are safe and sound. El Diablo's goons are running
42:04
scared. We're right on the heels.
42:05
Of his sidekick El Diablito. Exactly right.
42:35
SDN solves all problems, big and small.
42:39
We never ignore the people of the city, particularly the
42:42
elderly. Speaking of retirement, quick
42:44
question phenomena man. Does SDN offer four O 1K
42:48
matching? Yes, but there are limitations.
42:51
Your HR representative will have all the details.
43:09
Our shift is done, now it is time for lunch.
43:12
You couldn't. Have done it without you
43:13
dispatcher. Too true.
43:15
I'm going to enhance my break time with some of the snack
43:18
offerings in our break room vending machines.
43:21
Great idea. Thank you again, dispatcher.
43:24
I hope to be seeing a lot more of you.
43:27
Goodbye for now, and don't forget to be phenomenal.
43:31
Did he just say phenomenal? Well, looks like I'm great at
43:36
this. So that's going to be bad for
43:38
your negotiating position. I expect a lengthy.
43:47
Did I drool on you? I don't think so.
43:50
Well, you see why we thought of, well, why Trackstar thought of
43:54
you it. Makes sense, yeah.
44:01
Meet me at the SDN offices tomorrow.
44:05
I'm not done saving you yet. Is there a ladder or?
44:25
Sorry I'm late the. Folks at Esteem are the best in
44:50
the business. I met a nice lady, she wants to
44:57
help us out.
