New Kid on the Block

This is how New Kid on the Block goes in Mac Grimborn's Adventures of LEGO DC Super Villains.

[The film opens with Mac and Commissioner Gordon in a G.C.P.D. prisoner transport truck]

Detective Montoya: Commissioner Gordon, we've had reports of laughter and green gas. Looks like a certain someone.

Mac Grimborn: [sighs] Joker. [whispers to Gordon] Psst. Tell him now's not a good time.

Commissioner Gordon: We're already on route to Stryker's Island with our "special" suspect. Call in Detective Bullock. He can look into it.

Detective Montoya: Sure thing, boss. Enjoy Metropolis!

[Mac sees Metropolis]

Mac Grimborn: It's always sunny in Metropolis.

Commissioner Gordon: But even this place isn't without its problems.

[The truck pulls over as Gordon gets his I.D.]

Officer: [puts his doughnut away] Commissioner Gordon! And Mr. Grimborn.

Mac Grimborn: We're expected, Officer. Is everything ready?

Officer: Sure! I mean, yes, sir!

[Gordon puts away his I.D.]

Mac Grimborn: Thanks, Officer. Stay frosty!

[The truck drives away]

[The officer salutes him]

Officer: Sure thing, sir! [gets his doughnut out] Hmm, frosty.

[He is knocked down by a rogue officer]

[Mac and Gordon are waiting as Lex Luthor enters]

Mac Grimborn: Lex Luthor.

Lex Luthor: Mac Grimborn.

Mac Grimborn: The precinct asked two persons with our... "reputation". For what?

Commissioner Gordon: The suspect was apprehended in the laboratory break-in. The lab belonged to an old colleague of yours and Mr. Luthor's, Mr. Grimborn, Professor Ivo.

Lex Luthor: Professor Ivo? [sees a picture of him and Professor Ivo]

Mac Grimborn: I don't understand what the break-in has to do with Lex or me, Commissioner.

Commissioner Gordon: You were mixed up with the Amazo project.

Mac Grimborn: You mean the android capable of stealing powers from superheroes?

Commissioner Gordon: If our suspect has acquired similar abilities, they have a potential to become a huge threat.

Mac Grimborn: When you sent for me, you said it was important. Why?

Commissioner Gordon: You were afraid of the Amazo project. [gives him a picture of an Amazo android]

Mac Grimborn: Well, what can I do?

Commissioner Gordon: Maybe if you help and decide if they're a danger, we can see about knocking a couple of decades off your Quantum Powers.

[He nods his head]

Gordon: Bring him in.

[Mac activates the doors]

Lex Luthor: I have no interest in yet another superhero loser in the world.

[Then Rookie enters]

[Mac notices his costume]

[Lex looks impressed]

Lex Luthor: Who designed your costume?

The Rookie: I did.

Commissioner Gordon: This one says everything.

[Then the officer enters]

Officer: Commissioner, someone stole my doughnuts, and my uniform, and--[notices something] Oh, wait. There they are! [points at the rogue officer and Rookie]

[Mac looks shocked]

Mac Grimborn/Commissioner Gordon: What?!

[Gordon looks at him as the rogue officer defeats them effortlessly]

[Then the rogue officer reveals herself as Mercy Graves]

Mac Grimborn: Mercy Graves.

Lex Luthor: Better late than never.

[Mercy gets Lex's suit as he puts it on]

[Lex finishes putting it on]

Lex Luthor: Let's get out of here.

Mac Grimborn: Not so fast!

Lex Luthor: This is the point we escape.

[Rookie doesn't know what to do]

Mac Grimborn: Come on, Rookie! You're with Mac Grimborn, now, the greatest protector of Earth!

[Mac goes after them]

The Rookie: Um, okay.

[He follows him]

[They follow them to Metallo's cell]

[Superman arrives]

Superman: Stop right there, Luthor!

[Mac waves his hand]

Mac Grimborn: Thanks for coming, Superman, but I kinda had it under control. Looks like Stryker's prison cafeteria is missing a bald-headed pot head!

[Mercy snickers]

Lex Luthor: I chop the vegetables now.

Mac Grimborn: Then I'll take you back to your cell.

[But then, Superman is suddenly attacked by Metallo]

Mac Grimborn: Metallo! I thought he's too unstable to be outside his cell!

Lex Luthor: Unstable for your friend, perhaps... His Kryptonite Core doesn't bother me one bit.

[Metallo attacks Superman as the prisoners escape]

[Then Mac confronts Luthor and his fellow villains]

Mac Grimborn: I'll stop you, Luthor!

Lex Luthor: Now to get off this rock.

Superman: You're not going anywhere.

Lex Luthor: You really think you can stop me? Mwahahaaha!

[Mac helps Superman]

[Metallo clashes with Mac]

[The Justice League arrives]

Wonder Woman: No. But we can!

Cyborg: Booyah!

The Flash: Not so fast, bad guys!

Green Lantern: Back off. Green's my thing!

[Green Lantern knocks down Metallo]

[Mac notices that Batman isn't with them]

Mac Grimborn: Where's Batman?

Wonder Woman: He said he had to take care of an emergency.

Mac Grimborn: Let me guess. Joker.

[We then cut to the heist of Wayne Tower]

Harley Quinn: Harley Quinn here, documenting another classic criminal caper. And now the star of this show, Mistah J!

[Joker appears]

The Joker: Argh! Where is it?!

[Harley smiles]

Harley Quinn: We just stole some neato stuff previously procured by Wayne Tech. Mistah J and I love a good a-robbing. Taking from all those suckers who are too honest to steal! Ha!

[Joker looks for something]

The Joker: No, no, no! It's not here! It's not here!

[Harley rolls around him]

Harley Quinn: Come on, Pudding, say something funny for our viewers.

[She holds out her phone and smiles]

[Joker growls]

[Harley puts her phone away]

The Joker: ...Grrr, not now, Pumpkin, can't you see I'm busy?! Here, take this...

[He gives her a box]

[She likes it]

Harley Quinn: Oooh, pretty! Whatever it is.

[Batman is in his Batwing]

Batman: Nowhere to run, Joker!

[He launches the Bat-Net]

[Harley notices it]

Harley Quinn: Er, Pudding. How about we get on the chopper?

The Joker: Relax. He'll never get us from waaaaay up there...

[The Bat-Net captures Harley and Joker]

Batman: Two with one shot. Not bad.

[Then Green Lantern accidentally throws Grundy to the Batwing]

[He looks shocked and puts his green club away]

[He whistles as Harley is on the cot pit window]

Harley Quinn: Say "cheese", B-Man!

[Harley is thrown off as the Batwing crash lands]

[He exits as he chases Grundy]

[Joker and Harley are okay]

[They build a catapult]

[They get on their chopper]

Harley Quinn: Good thing they're too busy fighting those goofs. They don't got time to stop us. Eh, Mistah J?

[They battle the villains when the Justice Syndicate appears]

Ultraman: Hold it right there, you vile villains of villainy!

[They knock down the villains while Rookie and Cheetah escape as Superman approaches Ultraman]

Superman: Who are you?

Ultraman: I am Ultraman and these are my friends, the Justice Syndicate. Owlman, Superwoman, Grid, Johnny Quick, Power Ring, and Sea King.

[They appear behind Ultraman]

The Flash: There's something really familiar about these guys.

Ultraman: We're here to help.

[Superman shakes his hand]

Mac Grimborn: Where did you come from?

Ultraman: We come from a....

Batman: Skip to the end. Joker’s getting away.

Superwoman: Your entire planet is in terrible danger due to a threat from our world.

Batman: What threat?

Johnny Quick: Us!

[He throws something and the League warps away]

[Mac escapes as the Justice Syndicate approaches the lantern]

[They cackle evilly]

[Above, Harley takes pictures]

[Harley looks shocked]

Harley Quinn: Cheese and crackers! You're not going to believe this... Hey?! Wait for me, Mistah J!!!

[She runs to the chopper]

[Her phone is dropped]

Harley Quinn: Ah peanuts!

[We then cut to the Amusement Mile]

[Harley watches TV]

Ultraman: People of Earth-1, we are the Justice Syndicate. We come from a parallel version of your world known as Earth-3. We're awesome and we're here to help.

Superwoman: Your Justice League have had to go on a mission in deep space. They asked us to watch over while they are away.

[Harley looks enraged]

[Mac watches]

Harley Quinn: What?! That's not what happened!

[Lex looks confused]

Lex Luthor: Huh?

[Harley groans]

[Joker destroys the TV]

The Joker: That's enough TV now, Harley. Too much is bad for your eyes.

Harley Quinn: But Mistah Jaaaaaay, I saw those new Justice bozos make the OLD Justice bozos vanish using some little doohickey thingy! If I had my phone I could show you!

The Joker: Shush shush shush. I'm still searching for my wonderful toy. Care to join us, Lex?

[Lex looks in his laptop]

Lex Luthor: I'd rather wear a wig. Besides, I have matters to attend to in Metropolis.

[He then takes Joker's chopper]

[Harley watches]

Lex Luthor: Oh, and thanks for the ride, Joker.

[Harley pats on Joker as the chopper leaves]

[Joker looks frustrated]

The Joker: Ugh, why do I never take the keys out of that thing?

[Mac enters]

Mac Grimborn: I can't believe this, but I'm working with you now.

Harley Quinn: Whoa.

The Joker: That's a surprise, given our twisted history.

[Mac nods his head]

[Then he sits down and explains everything]

Mac Grimborn: It's all my fault. I was the one who saw the Justice Syndicate.

Harley Quinn: How could you say that?

Mac Grimborn: I was willing to see good in them, and because of it, I lost my friends. But now, I have a chance to make things right, and help you defeat them, *if* you will trust me.

[Harley approaches him]

Harley Quinn: No matter how much we want you to, we can't change the past. But we *can* work for a better future. [shakes his hand]

[Joker nods his head]

The Joker: Agreed. What's the plan?

[Mac whispers in explanation of the plan]
