Ghost Signals, Episode 8: Part 3.2
RAIVEN Just a few things- nothing overbearing or hard to achieve in my view. The first: the completed serum you end creating, if you do create it, must be shared to any other huminn towns you know.
JARYD (mid-sized thought) I can agree to that. Captain Riggs might not be as agreeable, but I believe I can get her there. What is the second one?
RAIVEN You spoke earlier of the other towns like Three Angels, the first time we met.
JARYD ...Yes. I remember. RAIVEN I was curious to know if you had a list, or some type of compendium, of these other towns that I can take with me.
JARYD (thinking) Hmm...that is considerably easier to achieve.
RAIVEN You can make a copy of it?
JARYD The original mayor of Three Angels kept it on a hard drive- as a remembrance of our humble origin. I keep it in my personal study, not counting the yearly maintenance checkup. I don't know how up to date it is...
RAIVEN That's perfectly fine, cheers. That would be an immense boon for me going forward.
JARYD (chuckles) Not a problem. While we're on the subject of curiosities... (points to the safe) I'd love to find out what is inside that safe you're carrying.
RAIVEN Sure. I can show you my laboratory.
CUT TO:
A montage of the group going through the different parts of the museum through the course of just over an hour. We see them looking at art from various kinds of artists like Picasso, Rodin, Cheri Samba, El Anatsui, Takeji Asano, Biho, Albert Namatjira, and many more spanning every corner of the globe. There's also a shot of the Ok glacier plaque that has been preserved, but still shows signs of weathering.
The montage ends with them standing in front of a life-sized clay model of the entire MCU Avengers team (Captain America Sam Wilson, Iron Man, Thor, She-Hulk, Captain Marvel, Black Panther) in the middle of a hall near the top of the building.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI (to Jaryd, curious) Who the hells are these people?
JARYD (to AC Second Class Dez-Lei) They call themselves the Avengers. They were quite popular in their WIage.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI When was this made?
JARYD This piece's actually rather recent- 15, 20 years old I think. Though the characters themselves are well over 180 years old, if memory serves.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI (to Raiven) I don't remember seeing any signals of these peeps. Do you?
RAIVEN (shakes her head, to AC Second Class Dez-Lei) It's possible the Signals we got were from an age that preceded their existence.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI (following on the Doctor's thought) Or degraded or were gobbled up in the atmosphere of a nearby planet.
RAIVEN Definitely a possibility, yeah.
The soldier breaks away from the group, and walks around the edge of the sculpture; her eyes glancing around at the lower regions of the sculpted likenesses of Captain Marvel and She-Hulk.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI Whoever they were, they were definitely easy on the eyes. Especially the femmes...! Just as she's about to touch She-Hulk's rear end, an alarm sounds from off-screen right.
CUT TO:
A security drone (DOCENT) rushing onto the scene with red lights flashing from the top of it.
DOCENT (forceful robotic voice, to AC Second Class Dez- Lei) You have five seconds to step away from the exhibit or face further punishment.
Within a few seconds of the command, Dez-Lei reaches to her side and slices the circular drone in half; the metal remains landing with a hard "THUNK!" onto the hard tile floor, letting out little sparks of electricity from its exposed tops.
RAIVEN (to Jaryd, apologetic) I cannot even begin to apologize
for my friend here.
AC SECOND CLASS DEZ-LEI
(joining in, to Jaryd) Yeah. I get a little itchy around drones- a bad moment from a battle on Lotez-3.
JARYD (knowing nod, to AC Second Class Dez- Lei) I wouldn't worry too much. They regen in a separate factory when the Docents are destroyed or malfunction. I'd be worried if the owner Arsene were nearby. He can be quite...
ARSENE (in French, V.O.) What the unholy FUCK?!!
CUT TO:
ARSENE, a physically imposing man with a round face that resembles Wilson Fisk. He's dressed in a bright silver suit with puffy matching bell bottom-like pants. You can see his face take on a tint of red that pops in from his light brown face.
ARSENE (Cont.) I want you gone! Now! Before I...
JARYD Arsene, I--
