The ship lands and they get off the ship on a floating stand.
"Welcome everyone to my world." Ego says
"Wow. You have your own planet?" Peter asks
"Come on. No larger than your Earth's moon." Ego says.
"Humility. I like it. I, too, am extraordinarily humble." Drax says.
Gamora admires the bubbles floating in the sky while Carrie is looking at the plants. They're all amazed at how pretty this planet is.
It's like a dream.
It's perfect.
Too perfect.
They float up to this beautiful palace and get off the floating stand.
"You own a plant and can destroy two frozen spaceships without a suit. What are you exactly?" Gamora asks. Then Carrie realizes
"Are you a celestial?" Carrie asks
"I sure am." Ego says as they go into his palace
"Whoa." Peter says
"I don't know where I came from exactly. First thing I remember is flickering adrift in the dosso utterly and entirely alone. Over millions of years I learned to control the molecules around me. I grew smarter and stronger. And I continued building from there layer by layer the very planet you walk on now." Ego says
"Whoa" Peter and Carrie say.
"Mantis looks a little nervous."
Carrie hits her head. No one notices
"But I wanted more. I desired meaning. There must be some life out there in the universe besides just me. I thought. And so, I set myself the task of finding it. I created what I imagined biological life to be like down to the most minute detail." Ego says
"Did you make a penis?" Drax asks
"Dude!" "Drax!" Peter and Carrie say at the same time
"What is wrong with you?" Gamora says
"If he is a planet, how could he make a baby with your mother? He would smush her!" Drax says
"I don't need to hear how my parents-" Peter tries to say
"Why? My father would tell the story of impregnating my mother every winter solstice." Drax says
"Oh my god, ew!" Carrie says
"That's disgusting." Peter says
"It was beautiful. You Earthers have hang ups." Drax says
"Yes, Drax, I got a penis." Ego says
"Ha! Thank you!" Drax says
"It's not half bad." Ego says
"I've also got pain receptors, a digestive system and all the accompanying junk. I wanted to experience what it truly meant to be a human as I set out amongst the stars until I found what I sought. Life. I was not alone in the universe after all." Ego says
"When did you meet my mother?" Peter says
"Not long after. It was with Meredith that I first experienced love. I called her my River lily and from that love, came you Peter. I have searched for you for so long. And when I heard of a man from Earth who held an Infinity Stone in his hands without dying. I knew that you must have been the son of the woman I loved."
"If you loved her, why did you leave her?" Peter asks
