RED HULK and LIZARD (Loki & Enchantress dance): I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night He’s gotta be strong And he’s gotta be fast And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light He’s gotta be sure And it’s gotta be soon And he’s gotta be larger than life
LOKI (Cruella dances): Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There’s someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat It’s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet
DR. DOOM and DR. OCTOPUS (Sandman & Penny dance): I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night He’s gotta be strong And he’s gotta be fast And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light He’s gotta be sure And it’s gotta be soon And he’s gotta be larger than life
DOOFENSHMIRTZ, VANESSA, PENNY, VENOM, CARNAGE, SANDMAN, CRUELLA, and HOBGOBLIN (Dr. Doom, Dr. Octopus, Red Hulk & Lizard dance): Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there’s someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood I can feel his approach Like a fire in my blood
ENCHANTRESS and LOKI (Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Hobgoblin, & Carnage dance): I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night He’s gotta be strong And he’s gotta be fast And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light He’s gotta be sure And it’s gotta be soon And he’s gotta be larger than life

(Evilla and Lok rush up to him and take his sundae.)

BLACK WIDOW: I will never tell you.
ZACHARY: I will move your chair over the hole. (He begins to move her chair to a pit in the floor. His cellphone rings.) It’s for you?
BLACK WIDOW: Why did you call me Nova? I’m in the middle of work here.

IRON MAN: (sarcastic manner) Your point being?
NICK FURY: Tony, we need you to join the Avengers team.
IRON MAN: (laughs) Umm…no offense, but I don’t really do teams.
NICK FURY: Tony, there is no “I” in team.
IRON MAN: But there’s an “I” in win.
NICK FURY: You are, bar none, the most selfish person I have ever had the misfortune of meeting.
IRON MAN: Hurtful words, Nicky…. I might cry.
NICK FURY: Stark, I’m going to level with you. We need you to join this team. The world needs you…. I need you.
IRON MAN: Awww, Nicky. You’re making me blush.
NICK FURY: I’m serious; if the world ends you won’t have any one left to get money from. Don’t think about me, think about your money.
IRON MAN: I do love my money. I guess sign me up.
NICK FURY: Four Avengers, check.
SCENE 3D
(A beautiful sunny day at a hotel pool in Toronto. A bunch of sun-bathers are sitting by the pool, when She-Hulk walks by in her bathing suit. She is 7-feet tall and really green, so they stare at her. Suddenly, a huge green blur appears jumping into the pool. All the water splashes out and the Hulk is left standing in a pool with no water. )
SHE-HULK: (mad) Cousin, thank you! I wanted to go for a swim!
HULK: Hulk, sorry.
(She-Hulk’s phone rings. She answers.)
SHE-HULK: Hello… Nova? This is our vacation. We’re finally enjoying family time in Toronto to celebrate Canada Day. We were looking forward to going to the CN Tower and jumping on top of it!
NOVA: We need you both for the Avengers team. You are the strongest super heroes – we really need you both!
HULK: (listening) Do I get to smash?

LOKI: NOW! (Another burst of light sparks from his trident)
BELLA-LOKI: Mee-oow! C’mon I know you can do it.
(The crowd all bow. The Loki family laughs manically. Bela-Loki stalks around the crowd to make sure everyone has bowed. She looks at an old man who is looking up and Bela-Loki scratches his face.)
LOKI: (looking silly at Enchantress) Now that we’re rulers, we’ll live the good life, or in your case the crazy life.
(The song “Living La Vida Loca” plays)
LOKI: She’s into superstitions black cats and voodoo dolls. I feel a premonition that girl's gonna make me fall. She’s into new sensations new kicks in the candle light. She’s got a new addiction for every day and night.
She’ll make you take your crocs and go dancing in the rain. She’ll make you live her crazy life but she’ll take away your pain like a slushee to your brain. Come On!
ALL: (Loki, Lok, & Evilla dance) Upside, inside out she's livin la vida loca She’ll push and pull you down, livin la vida loca Her lips are devil red and her skin’s the colour mocha She will wear you out livin la vida loca Come On! Livin la vida loca, Come on! She’s livin la vida loca.
ENCHANTRESS: Hey if you’re going to call me crazy, you better watch out! Or else….
(The song “Another One Bites the Dust” plays.)
ENCHANTRESS: (Cruella dances) He walks warily down the street, With his brim pulled way down low Ain’t no sound but the sound of his feet, Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, Are you ready for this Are you hanging on the edge of your seat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat
ALL: Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another’s one gone, and another’s one gone Another one bites the dust
ENCHANTRESS: (Vanessa dances) Hey, I’m gonna get you too Another one bites the dust
How do you think I’m going to get along, Without you, when you're gone You took me for everything that I had, And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy, are you satisfied How long can you stand the heat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat
ALL: Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone, and another one gone Another one bites the dust
ENCHANTRESS: (Evilla & Lok dance) There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man And bring him to the ground You can beat him You can cheat him You can treat him bad and leave him When he’s down But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you I'm standing on my own two feet Out of the doorway the bullets rip Repeating the sound of the beat Another one bites the dust! (gives devil horns)
LOK: Well, you guys boss around all the time.
EVILLA: Yeah, it’s always do this, do that. Listening to you two is like goo-goo-ga-ga!
(The song “Radio Gaga” plays.)
EVILLA: (Lok dances) I sit alone and watch your light Our only friends through teenage nights And everything we have to get We download from the Internet
LOK: (Evilla dances) So hope to record, our life online Touch any key, the world is mine We’re lost in space But we don’t care
EVILLA and LOK: Without your light, our world’s not there Complete control, you are the power Our lives are programmed by the hour Mom and Dad
ALL: (Everyone dances): All we hear is radio ga ga Video goo goo All we hear cyberspace ga ga Marketing blah blah Always something new Mom and dad - someone still loves you
(The music stops. There’s an awkward silence for a few moments. The crowd bowing begins to look up and stares at the family.)
LOKI: Hey, what are you staring at?
SCENE 6 – The Avengers arrive
(A loud boom is heard and burst of light appears. The Avengers arrive.)
EVILLA: Who are these people, mom and dad?

LOKI: I will never go back to those times! I should be next in line – not you!

NICK FURY and NOVA: Turned away from it all like a blind man Sat on a fence but it don't work Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why can't we give love that one more chance Why can't we give love give love give love give love one more chance
LOKI and ENCHANTRESS: Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
EVILLA and LOK: Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
ALL: Why can't we give love that one more chance Why can't we give love give love give love give love give love give love give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word And love dares you to care for The people on the edge of the night And loves dares you to change our way of Caring about ourselves
