(Doctor comes out with Catchick.)
DOCTOR
How do you feel?
CATCHICK
Awesome! I'm going surfing! Hang ten dudes!
(Catchick steps on Smack and exits. Smack wakes up all dazed. Dogboy helps him in to a chair.)
DOCTOR
The weight of the world is off her shoulders. She's happy now.
SHADE
Being a hero isn't about happiness.
DOCTOR
Then what is it about?
SHADE
It's about changing the world and making it a better place.
DOCTOR
And have you changed the world? Is it a better place?
SHADE
Well, not yet.
DOCTOR
Anyone can change the world. You don't have to have superpowers.
SHADE
I am sooo tired of hearing about that Batguy. Give me a few billion dollars for gadgets and I'd be pretty powerful too.
DOCTOR
I'm saying that ordinary people can make a difference in this world.
(The heroes look at each other a moment and then laugh.)
SHADE
Ordinary people... making a difference? HA!
DOCTOR
What about teachers, nurses, police officers? They all make a difference.
SMACK
Uh...
DOGBOY
She's got a point.
SHADE
Don't listen to her. She's twisting your minds.
DOCTOR
Or maybe I'm the hero and I'm the one fixing problems.
SMACK
Uh... I hate thinking. My brain hurts. Too much talking. Not enough smiting.
SHADE
Blah, blah, blah... her words will destroy us!
DOCTOR
Or maybe they'll make you better.
SHADE
You'll have to catch me first.
(Shade jumps behind chairs again.)
