Scene 1
The Fantastic Four are in the Baxter Building, playing Monopoly.
Johnny: Dude. Why do I land on your properties every single time?!
Sue: Because he owns practically the entire board, Johnny.
Johnny: Yeah, but I have Boardwalk. And Park Place!
Reed: The former of which I sold to you for the properties I needed to complete two sets. Your whole strategy is based on the half-a-percent chance we land on dark blue.Johnny: Whatever. This is why I don't play board games with you?
Reed: Because I win?
Johnny: Because--
Ben: Hey, guys?
Everyone turns their attention to him.
Ben: Do you hear something?
The rest of the gang stops and listens for a moment.
Sue: Is that...
Reed: Chanting?
Johnny stands up and crosses over to the window. He frowns as he looks back.
Johnny: You're going to want to see this.
Everyone else gathers around the window to see an angry mob assembling around the base of the Baxter Building. There are torches, pitchforks, and signs that show a 4 with a line through it.
Mob man: There they are!
The mob starts to shout and throw things up at the window where the Fantastic Four are looking out.
Sue: What is going on?
Mob man: Death to the Fantastic Four!
Reed: We have our own mob.
Johnny: Nice! I've always wanted my very own angry mob.
Ben: What are they angry about? What have we done?
Reed: I have no clue.
Sue: It's not like you have to actually do anything these days to get people angry at you.
Reed: That's true, but there has to be a reason that they've just shown up out of the blue.
Johnny: One of you probably said something politically incorrect. Actually, scratch that, it was probably me.
Ben: Well, now you've finally done it.
Reed: Relax, I don't think it was Johnny.
Sue: Then who was it?
