No matter! Youre both too late! Soon, I shall have control of this company! Then, the world!
Dr. Zlo throws his hands in the air, laughing at his genius.
Girl Wonder
Um, sorry. Question?
Dr. Zlo
What? How dare you interrupt me?!
Wonderman
Im sorry, shes learning. Wonderman bends down. Sweetie, its very rude to interrupt people when theyre talking.
Girl Wonder
Pouting. But I just wanted to ask how taking over a company takes over the world? I dont get how the pieces fit.
Eville
Amateur. Dr. Zlos genius is too great for a small fry like you!
Girl Wonder
What was that?! You wanna go?

Concerned. Sweetie! Remember what I said about hero work!
Girl wonder instantly calms down and answers with a grumble.
Girl Wonder
Always make sure youre not as scary as the villains.
Wonderman
Thats right! Because you see, hero work is just like any other work. And its a heros job to put their best foot forward.
The Jacques, ever ready with the autotuner, bang on it a bit to get it started. If someone looks closely at the device, they can see that it has multiple dings and scrapes from all the lugging around. The background takes a second to start up, the machine hissing and coughing before starting up an electric guitar.
Wonderman
Every morning, we wake up just the same
Like any citizen, ready to take on the day
We dont see ourselves as invincible
Its not true at all
The electric guitar is joined by drums and bass, creating a familiar rock tone as Wonderman belts in his signature style.
Were just your average, ordinary, everyday
Superheroes
Saving cats from trees, kissing babies' cheeks
Were just your average, ordinary, everyday
Superheroes
Nothing more than that; thats all we really are.
The rock continues as Girl Wonder joins in.
Girl Wonder and Wonderman
Just a day job, that someones got to do
Its not hard, when they look up to you
Gonna make it look easy, gonna make it look good
Like every hero should
Girl Wonder jumps forward, ready to throw hands. Eville jumps in to meet the sidekick, leaving Dr. Zlo to Wonderman. The two heroes sing the chorus as they fight back and forth.
As the two fight during their songs, Eville and Girl Wonder rejoin the battle. Choreographed fights happen as the autotuner mashes the two songs' instrumental solos together, but eventually, the machine can take no more. As it gears up for one final hurrah, Dr. Zlo and Wonderman shout their finishers.
As the machine smokes, the audience can see Jacques using various fans to try and cool it off. These can be as ridiculous as the director imagines.
Wonderman
Im just your average! Ordinary! Everyday superhero
Dr. Zlo
Im the bad guy! Duh!
The autotuner explodes at the end, sending the Jacques nearby on stage and once again covering everything in smoke. (or just drop the curtains if you dont have money for dry ice or something.) Once it clears, both the heroes and villains are on the floor, the office equipment around them torn to pieces.
Dr. Zlo
Groaning as he stands. What? Whats this?! Jacques! I didnt tell you to set off a bomb!
Wonderman
Ugh, did anyone get the number on that explosion? I must report him for bad driving.
Eville
Dr. Zlo, we need to go. I can use this smoke to trap Wonderman and Girl Wonder so we can make our escape!
Dr. Zlo
The villain looks around at the broken equipment. My plan its ruined!
Eville
Dont worry! We can try again another day!
Dr. Zlo
Slumping. Yes, youre right, of course. Come along, minions!
Eville condenses the smoke, covering the two heroes with it before dashing off. The heroes wake up a bit later.
Wonderman
Egads, Girl Wonder! That menacing Dr. Zlo has escaped again! Luckily, we thwarted his awful plot to take over the world!
Girl Wonder
Thats great, dad! But how are we going to get out of this?
Wonderman
Ill call your mother.
A phone rings as the curtain falls, but not before one computer screen lights up. It seems Dr. Zlos plan might have succeeded after all. Too bad the villain might never know!

So, whatcha think? Jack asked.
Dylan and Jack were hanging out together in Skyline, both of them using alternate characters to keep others from bothering them. Coincidentally, both had made avatars similar to their real selves.
You made a Dr. Zlo play! Dylan laughed. This is awesome!
Jack smiled and turned away, embarrassed. I mean, its not that great. Theres a lot of problems. Like the plot just jumps around everywhere, and a lot of the rhyming is terrible.
Its better than anything I could do, Dylan said, placing a hand on her shoulder.
You like it then? Jack asked.
Of course! Dylan said. He turned back to the text in front of him. My favorite part was Wondermans entrance. I can totally see some hero entering with a marching tune.
What about Eville? Jack asked. She scooted closer to him.
Were you modeling her off someone? Dylan asked.
Morticia Addums and Elvila, Jack said. Saw them on one of those free streaming platforms during a bad movie night.
Neat, Dylan said.
Just neat? Jack asked. What? No in-depth knowledge about the two characters? No comments on their tropey nonsense?
I cant see every video out there, Dylan replied.
Well, then... maybe we should plan a movie night, Jack said.
Dylan looked over at her. With everyone? Or just the two of us?
Jack tried to keep calm. Whichever you want.
It was Dylans turn to try and stay calm. I think just the two of us is fine, dont you?
