Superheroes Page #6

Synopsis: 'Superheroes' will introduce us to several of the country's most famous masked heroes including, Mr. Xtreme, a 33-year-old security guard officer by day, but a goon's worst nightmare by night. We'll follow Mr. Xtreme on his nightly patrols through the streets of San Diego, as he tries to stop evildoers and protect the innocent. We'll also meet the New York Initiative, a fantastic foursome of real life superheroes living together that tackle crime fighting, one Brooklyn borough at a time. Lead by Zimmer, we'll watch as they take to the streets and try to lure criminals out of hiding with their controversial Bait-Patrols. With over 300 registered superheroes in the United States, we'll definitively uncover the 'Real-Life Superhero' cultural phenomenon and discover what inspired these everyday citizens to take the law in to their own hands as they try to make the world a better and safer place for all.

- TIFFANY.

TIFFANY.

I'M SORRY.

WELL, IT'S BEEN GREAT

TO BE IN THE COMPANY

OF VERY:

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.

BUT SOON WE WILL

GET ON OUR WAY:

TO GO HELP OUT SOME

DESPERATE PEOPLE.

IT'LL BE FUN.

Z:

I REALLY STARTED

RUNNING AROUND:

WITH A MASK ON:

AT NIGHT,

THINKING I WAS GOING TO

DO SOMETHING, YOU KNOW?

BUT THE PEOPLE WHO DO

THE KIND OF STUFF THAT

I'M OUT THERE TO STOP--

THERE'S GUYS THAT

WANT TO TAKE, YOU KNOW,

ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE

THAT ARE AT ONE OF THEIR

WEAKEST MOMENTS,

THEY DON'T-- THEY DON'T

DO IT OBVIOUSLY.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE--

THEY'RE GOOD AT IT.

YOU KNOW?

SO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO

IS YOU GOT TO PUT A LITTLE

BAIT OUT THERE FOR THEM.

I ALWAYS THINK ABOUT

THE THREE TYPES OF PEOPLE

THAT DO THINGS:

IN THE STREET AT NIGHT,

AND THAT'S--

YOU GOT YOUR MUGGERS,

YOUR RAPISTS:

AND YOUR CAR THIEVES.

BEGINNING OF THE NIGHT,

WE DECIDE WHETHER

WE WANT TO BE:

MORE ARMORED OR FASTER.

SO WE EITHER ARMOR UP MORE

OR WE PUT ON LIGHTER CLOTHES

THAT ARE DARKER, SO WE CAN

BLEND IN BETTER.

WE SUIT UP:

EITHER ZIMMER OR T.S.A.F.

AND WE SEND THEM OUT

INTO THE FIELD.

Zimmer:

BEING OPENLY GAY

IS SOMETHING THAT IS

VERY IMPORTANT TO ME,

THAT'S VERY NEAR

AND DEAR TO MY HEART.

SO I NEVER:

PATROLLED IN A MASK,

BECAUSE WEARING A MASK

AND HAVING A DIFFERENT NAME

AND DIFFERENT LIFE

FELT TOO MUCH LIKE

BEING IN THE CLOSET.

MY MUGGABLE CHARACTER IS

A VERY GAY FLAMBOYANT MAN.

WITH THIS, WE HOPE TO BAIT

PEOPLE WHO ARE HOMOPHOBIC

INTO DOING:

SOMETHING CRIMINAL.

THE OTHER THREE ACT

AS BASICALLY BODYGUARDS

AT A DISTANCE.

Lucid:

WE TRAIL THEM,

KEEP IN COMMUNICATION.

IF ANYTHING HAPPENS,

WE ROLL IN.

YOU KNOW,

WE EITHER GRAB I.D.s

TO TRAIL THE PERP LATER

OR WE DO:

A CITIZEN'S ARREST.

Lieutenant Brown:

BAIT PATROL DOES SEEM TO BE

A FORM OF ENTRAPMENT.

IT'S ON THE FINE LINE.

BUT IF THAT PERSON,

THAT BAIT,

HADN'T BEEN SENT OUT THERE

TO ENTICE SOMEONE

TO ROB THEM:

OR BEAT THEM,

OR WHATEVER THE OBJECT

OF THAT PARTICULAR

BAIT PATROL WAS,

YOU KNOW, IT SOUNDS LIKE

SOMEONE IS BEING ENTRAPPED

AT THAT POINT.

YOU'RE DEFINITELY MUGGABLE.

AWESOME.

I'M GLAD I'M MUGGABLE.

I THINK I'M FEELING LIKE

MUGGING YOU RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT, YEAH.

I THINK ANYONE SEEING ME

WEARING THIS OUTFIT

- WILL MUG ME

ON GENERAL PRINCIPLE.

- YEAH.

Zimmer:

SO YOU GUYS:

ARE GONNA LEAVE.

YOU'RE GONNA WALK A BLOCK

TO THE RIGHT-- WEST.

WE'RE GONNA GO UP

AND TAKE UP THE POST

ON THE NEXT STREET UP FROM

HANCOCK AND BROADWAY.

RIGHT, AND THEN

I'M GONNA WALK OUT.

WHEN YOU SEE ME,

START WALKING:

TO THE NEXT ONE.

I'LL WALK TO YOUR POSITION.

DO YOU WANT ME:

TO LEAVE NOW?

T.S.A.F.,

DO YOU HAVE KEYS?

ALL RIGHT.

Z, LUCID, YOU GUYS,

CAN YOU SEE ME?

I'M LIKE A BLOCK AWAY

FROM YOU.

- IT'S STARTING TO RAIN.

- ( thunder crashing )

Z. OH, I SEE YOU NOW.

ALL RIGHT, IT LOOKS LIKE

WE'RE GOING HOME.

IT'S STARTING TO RAIN,

SO WE'RE CALLING THIS

BAIT PATROL OFF.

WE'LL HEAD OUT

AGAIN TOMORROW NIGHT

AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

( tires screech )

HI. I KNOW

I LOOK RIDICULOUS,

BUT I'M AN E.M.T.

DID THEY:

RUN OVER YOUR FOOT?

YEAH, LOOK,

IT'S GOING TO SWELL UP.

I DON'T WANT TO MOVE IT.

I JUST GOT HIT.

YOU SEE THIS HERE?

I'M PUSHING MY PUSHCART,

AND IT GOES ASS OVER HEAD,

AND I GO WITH IT.

SO YOU THINK:

SHE HIT THE BIG TOE?

SO WHEN IT HIT, IT--?

YEAH, I HAVE NO NAIL

THERE ANYMORE.

RIGHT.

SO BOTH OF THESE?

- THESE THREE.

- THESE-- THOSE THREE.

- RIGHT HERE.

- ALL RIGHT.

Zimmer:

FOR THE PAST FIVE MONTHS

I'VE BEEN IN AN E.M.T. SCHOOL.

I'M GOING THROUGH

E.M.T. CERTIFICATION.

AND I RECENTLY TOOK

MY PRACTICAL SKILLS EXAM

AND PASSED IT.

I HAVE ONE MORE:

STATE WRITTEN EXAM,

AND I'LL BE

A FULLY-CERTIFIED E.M.T.,

CERTIFIED TO TREAT

BULLET WOUNDS, KNIFE WOUNDS,

ANY KIND OF:

ACCIDENTAL TRAUMA.

AND I THINK THIS IS GONNA BE

REALLY USEFUL FOR PATROLS,

TO HAVE THAT BACKUP.

- ( grunts )

- WHERE ARE YOU HEADED?

WE'LL WALK YOU HOME.

- I'M GOING RIGHT HERE,

COME ON.

- ALL RIGHT.

I WANT YOU TO TELL MY WIFE

WHAT HAPPENED.

Lucid:

WE SET IT UP PERFECTLY,

AND YET EVERYTHING

FELL APART, YOU KNOW.

THERE WAS NOTHING WE COULD DO.

IT'S COMPLETELY OUT

OF OUR CONTROL.

BUT THEN, YOU KNOW,

THE STREET:

KIND OF GAVE BACK

A LITTLE BIT.

IT WAS VERY SERENDIPITOUS

WHERE THERE WAS STILL--

YOU KNOW,

THERE WAS STILL:

A LOT OF GOOD:

THAT COULD BE DONE.

COME ON.

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

A STRING OF GROPING ATTACKS

ON WOMEN IN CHULA VISTA

HAS MANY PEOPLE ON EDGE.

IN RESPONSE, A MEMBER OF

THE XTREME JUSTICE LEAGUE--

THERE IS SUCH A THING--

HAS ARRIVED IN COSTUME

TO HELP POLICE TRACK DOWN

THE GROPER AND FIGHT CRIME.

HE HAS THIS MESSAGE

FOR THE MAN WHO'S BEEN

ON THE PROWL:

SINCE LAST SEPTEMBER,

STRIKING FEAR IN

THE COMMUNITY:

YOU CAN RUN,

BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE.

AND ALL I CAN SAY IS,

YOU KNOW:

OUR SCENE IS YOUR FEAR;

EVILDOERS BEWARE;

AND XTREME JUSTICE--

THIS IS NOT THE N.F.L.,

THIS IS THE X.J.L.

Mr. Xtreme's mom:

MY SISTER CALLED ME UP.

SHE SAW SOMEBODY

IN THE NEWS.

AND FROM THE WAY HE TALK

AND THE WAY HE WALK,

SHE RECOGNIZED HIM.

AND SHE TOLD ME:

IT'S ALMOST 100%

IT'S MY OLDEST SON.

MY PARENTS? YEAH,

THEY TRY TO DISCOURAGE ME,

BUT PRETTY MUCH:

I'VE GOTTEN USED TO IT.

AND I THINK:

THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH

GONNA GET USED TO,

YOU KNOW,

THE CHOSEN PATH IN MY LIFE.

Mr. Xtreme's mom:

I DO NOT APPROVE WHAT

HE MAKES CHOICE.

MY HUSBAND DID NOT

APPROVE THAT NEITHER.

BUT WE STAND BY HIM

AND WE SUPPORT HIM.

IT IS A GOOD THING--

A GOOD THING FOR OTHERS.

MIGHT NOT BE A GOOD THING

FOR HIMSELF.

Mr. Xtreme:

I'M CURRENTLY A WHITE BELT

IN BRAZILIAN JU-JITSU.

AND I'M PREPARING

FOR MY FIRST TOURNAMENT

THIS WEEKEND:

TO HOPEFULLY ADVANCE

TO THE BLUE BELT LEVEL.

IT'S AN EVENT CALLED

"GRAPPLING X"--

BASICALLY A FREESTYLE

SUBMISSION GRAPPLING

TOURNAMENT.

THAT'S WHAT

I'M HOPING TO DO--

YOU KNOW, SHOW THEM

I GOT WHAT IT TAKES.

PARTICIPATING:

IN AN ACTUAL TOURNAMENT

IS PROBABLY AS REALISTIC

TO REAL COMBAT:

AS YOU CAN GET.

IT REALLY SIMULATES

THE STRESS:

OF A REAL SITUATION.

Mr. Xtreme's mom:

I THINK HE DID HIS BEST.

BUT BEING WORKING,

LIKE, ALMOST TWO

FULL-TIME JOBS,

HE REALLY DIDN'T

HAVE THE ENERGY:

AND PRACTICE TO FIGHT

WITH THESE STRONG GUYS.

BUT I BELIEVE:

IF YOU DID YOUR BEST,

WHATEVER OUTCOME,

DOESN'T MATTER.

HE WAS A REALLY:

HAPPY BABY:

UNTIL 17 MONTHS LATER

WHEN I WENT:

TO THE HOSPITAL:

TO GIVE BIRTH:

TO HIS BROTHER.

HE ASKED HIS GRANDMA

WHERE WAS MOMMY.

HIS GRANDMA TOLD HIM,

BECAUSE HE WAS A BAD BOY,

HIS MOMMY WENT:

TO THE HOSPITAL:

TO GET ANOTHER:

NEW BABY.

EVER SINCE THEN:

HE WAS REALLY SAD.

Mr. Xtreme:

I'M GONNA BE MOVING OUT

OF THE XTREME CAVE,

XTREME OPS,

BECAUSE I DON'T WANT

TO LIVE:

IN THE SAME COMMUNITY

THAT I PATROL IN

IF I CAN HELP IT.

SAY, IF I EVER COME

ACROSS A SITUATION--

I THWART A DRUG DEAL

OR I PISS OFF:

ONE OF THESE VILLAINS,

ONE OF THESE EVILDOERS,

AND THEY FIND OUT

WHERE I LIVE.

AND THE LAST THING

I NEED TO DO IS,

OH, AT 3:
00 IN THE MORNING

THEY COME UP AND SHOOT UP
