{DISCONTINUED} Marvel's Runaways

S2 EP4 - Old School

The Runaways stood with Topher in front of them.

Alex: Not another step.

Topher: I got you people tilted, huh? Don't worry, amigos. I'm not gonna hurt you.

Molly: ¿Quién eres tú? Do I know you?

Topher: No, muñeca. Not yet. ¿Cómo te llamas?

Chase: Did you follow her home? 'Cause I'll kick your ass right now.

Topher: Not quite fast enough, lindo.

Alex: Let's ask some questions first.

Topher: Ah, the leader, eh? I'd shake your hand, but it doesn't look like we're there yet.

Alex: Who are you?

Gert: He's an undercover cop. He's gonna bust us and send us back to our parents who'll murder us, or he's just a cold-blooded killer and he's gonna murder us right here, or he's a blackmailer and he's gonna demand money, which we don't have - we will end up murdered.

Topher: Everyone take a deep breath, ok? If you saw a little girl pick up a car, you'd check it out, too.

James: That's true. I am awfully curious.

Topher: Muñeca is a hero, for real.

James: Molly, care to illuminate?

Molly: This guy on the street was messing with this lady, and I tried to talk him out of it... with my fists. I had to protect her.

Gert: You didn't think to mention this to anyone?

Molly: I'm mentioning it now.

Topher: When I heard them talk about the girl with the yellow eyes, I had to check it out. Did I think it would lead me ya a... mansión arruinada?

Molly: He means 'ruined mansion.' It's so poetic.

James: Oh, great. Our home intruder has the soul of a poet.

Topher: Now that I'm here, you gotta give me the name of your decorator 'cause this place is dope as shit!

Nico: Cone of Silence!

A barrier forms around him.

Nico: He can't hear us now. What do we do with him? Discuss.

Chase: Let's get rid of him.

Alex: I'm with Chase.

Karolina: Isn't he just like us? So what? We find safety, then we just abandon everybody else?

Gert: We are Brentwood people.

Molly: That's wrong. Let him stay. The cops  aren't even looking for us anymore.

Nico: Who knows if we can trust this kid?

Chase: Yeah. I mean, look at him. He's all-

Karolina: Homeless? Dirty? Hungry?

Molly: Uh, hello? Gert, stand up for this guy.

Gert: In the 100-yard dash between my anxiety and my idealism, I'm ashamed to say my anxiety is winning. I'm a hypocrite. It's official.
