Release

The Zenith Team.

Five young superheroes

who fought to protect the world from evil.

Led by Captain Zoom

and his brother Concussion,

the team saved many lives.

Team Zenith.

Oh, and with the help of their sidekick,

Dr. Grant.

The government sought to enhance

the team's powers

using Gamma-13 radiation.

Zoom got faster and stronger,

but the Gamma turned Concussion

to the dark side.

He turned on his own team.

Zoom lost his powers

and his brother.

We're coming up now.

Prepare to deactivate cloaking device.

I told you not to call me

unless the world was going to end.

I don't know about the world ending,

but we've been tracking

a pan-dimensional anomaly

that seems to be moving toward

our time-space continuum.

Dr. Grant, I speak Greek, not geek.

Let me put it this way.

Concussion is still alive,

and he's coming back.

He was destroyed.

-Nope.

-We were there. We both saw it.

Nope.

Twelve days and counting.

The time has come.

I'm reactivating the Zenith Program.

Find me some kids.

Misfits, outcasts, weirdos.

Give me that file.

Zoom's the only one who can train them.

Now, get to Long Beach,

find him, evaluate his condition,

and bring him back here.

You know he won't cooperate.

You won the Nobel Prize, Doctor.

You'II think of something.

Okay, he's looking. Come now.

There's a car coming, Iady.

Hey, Iook out.

Yeah, you're sure you're okay, huh?

-That guy almost killed me.

-Watch out for the

grease.

Should have told you

about those grease spots.

Come on, get up.

Grant?

-Hello, Zoom.

-It's Jack.

Okay, Jack.

It's good to see you.

Wow. You got old.

It's been, what, 30 years?

-What are you doing here, Grant?

-We're starting up a new team.

Men's slow-pitch softball?

No, a new Zenith team.

-You can't be serious.

-We are serious, Mr. Shepard.

-Why is the green dress talking?

-I'm a psychologist.

I'm sorry. This is Miss Holloway.

She works with me.

Yes, and despite the theatrics,

which were not my idea, by the way,

you're the only one who can help us.

You're the only superhero Ieft.

Somebody's been giving you

the wrong information.

So, if you'II excuse me, I got work to do.

We're here to take you back,

not to invite you back.

And we're authorized to use

whatever means necessary.

-Grant, Grant, Grant.

-You can't shoot him.

-Nice.

-Sorry.

Trick or treat.

Here you go, sweetie.

Trick or treat.

-Thank you.

-Thanks a Iot.

-Give it here, Howdy Doo-Doo.

-Bully.

Oh, my gosh.

Thank you.

I'II take that.

She's so weird.

Freak.

That was a good one.

Oh, my gosh.

What just happened?

How does my hair Iook?

Dylan.

Perhaps you'd Iike to come up

and finish Newton's equation?

I think Newton can finish his own equation.

Now, Dylan.

Yes.

Check it out.

Lard-butt's going to snap the board in half.

Wake up, Zoom.

Zoom? Welcome back to Area 52.

Thank you, Grant, for bringing me

back to a place

I've been avoiding for the Iast 30 years.

You have two choices as I understand it.

One is to stay here

and the other is to go directly to prison.

How Iong in prison?

We are also very happy to pay you $500,000.

You know you could've just said that

instead of shooting me with a dart.

Yes.

Mr. Shepard.

Mr. Shepard, I can't tell you how happy I am

that you've come aboard.

It's you.

Do you have an inner-ear problem

or something?

-Zoom...

-Jack.

Right, Jack.

Miss Holloway is our Ieading researcher

in the area of Iatent superhuman abilities.

She'II be in charge of

training the new Zenith team.

She's also quite a fan of yours.

I have every issue of

Captain Zoom And His AmaZing Team,

most of them

still in their original plastic sleeves.

That's creepy.

But do you still have that green dress?

I even have the

fifth anniversary double issue,

Zoom Vs. The Atomic Melt.

I have it in Japanese, German,

Farsi, Hindi and Braille.

How about that green dress? Still have that?

Ladies and gentlemen,

may I have your attention, please?

The return of Zoom.

Show of hands, who here does not Iive

with their mom in her basement?

We have assembled a group

of 10 special candidates.

The extent of their abilities is still unknown,

Iike it was when your team arrived.

We wanted your help

in choosing the ones with the best potential

for a new Zenith team.

Well, for half a million dollars

in cash and prizes

Iet's take a Iook at those contestants,

shall we?

What, are we forming a spelling bee?

I assure you, they are all quite gifted.

Gifted what? They're a bunch of kids.

And what power do they have? I haven't

read or heard about a Gamma event.

Well, there weren't any.

My studies in meta-human

psychophysiology

have made Gamma treatments obsolete.

I am quite confident

that we can develop their abilities

far beyond what was achieved

during the Gamma-13 days.

And we can do it safely

and naturally.

I'm sorry, I must've dozed off there

for a minute.

Times have changed, Zoom.

Well, they'd better be able to do

some mind-blowing stuff.

What is this? She's blinking fast.

-She was better in the audition.

-I am a Iittle cooler.

Oh, dude.

Now you see him, now you don't.

How you doing?

Pass the hand sanitizer, please.

A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-K-L-M-N-O-P...

Stop that.

You're singing the alphabet.

That's not a power.

And your voice is average, it's not super.

It is, too, super.

Get another table in here, please.

Right away.

I see things.

Do you see dead people?

I see that you suffer

from a massive inferiority complex.

I try to hide that so well.

I'm Jupiter the Gas Giant.

-Say, "Excuse me."

-Yikes.

Is he doing it,

or is he just naturally that chubby?

It's so cool.

Miss Holloway,

how would you Iike to introduce

our trainees to their new instructor?

I would Iove to. You ready?

-Yeah. I can't wait.

-Okay.

That is getting so old.

Well, considering you can read my mind,

I don't have many options.

I can't read your mind. I just feel stuff.

And you could stop hitting on me entirely.

No, I can't do that.

You and I are destiny.

Children, I would Iike to formally

introduce you to a very great man,

Mr. Jack Shepard.

Sorry. I don't remember eating that.

Great man or washed-up Ioser?

It's a fine Iine. What a nice kid.

Is the Iong hair and the James Dean angst

just a package with you?

Mr. Shepard is uniquely qualified

to be your new instructor.

And now he'II tell you why.

What?

Oh, yeah, kids,

do you have any idea

what you're doing here or why?

Me.

Come on. Come on. Me, me, me.

Me.

-AII right, the Iittle one.

-We were brought here in super secret

because we were selected

out of a huge group of kids

because we're really special

and they needed special kids

for a special course.

That's what Miss Holloway said.

I don't think I've ever heard anybody

use that many "specials" in a sentence.

She actually worked it in there

one more time than Collins did.

But it's all a Iie.

We're here because we're different.

-We're not different.
