A scene from The Bad Guys 2022
Shark
[The Bad Guys were escorted to a S.U.C.M prison on an island after the disastrous gala. They were wrongfully convicted of the meteorite theft instead of Marmalade.]

I can't believe we got double-crossed by a tiny rodent!

Snake

Oh, we got double-crossed by a rodent all right. But, uh, not a tiny one.

Shark

What?!

Snake

This was supposed to be us conning Marmalade. It turns out it was Wolf conning us! Does that sound familiar to you, Wolf?!

Wolf

Why-Why would you think that?

Snake

Oh, I don't know! Maybe because you just sabotaged the biggest heist of our lives! I think you owe us an explanation, buddy.

Wolf

Okay, you're right. This is what happened. Back in the museum, I just tried to steal an old lady's purse. [gets his mugshot taken] Classic snatch and grab.

Webs

"Tried" to? Since when do you try to steal something and not just steal it?

Wolf

I was trying to steal the purse when the old lady fell and... [clears his throat] I kind of helped her.

Snake

What?! [gets his mugshot taken]

Wolf

I kind of helped her.

Piranha

But then you stole the purse. [gets his mugshot taken]

Wolf

No, [chuckles] I didn't! I saved the old lady, and she hugged me. And my tail wagged, and I didn't know what it was, but it felt, uh, you know... good. [The others, except Snake, gasp at this.]

Piranha

Ah, but then you stole the purse!

Others
[irritated]

NO!

Snake

Y'know, I heard what the pig said to you, about cutting us loose.

Shark

Wait. Like, "us" us?!

Snake

But I never thought you'd actually do it, man.

Wolf

Hey, hey, hey, hey! I-I would never... I was trying to... I was trying to find us a better life!

Snake

Our life was perfect until you decided to ruin it!

Wolf

I didn't! You guys felt it at the gala — the clapping, the cheering. We were more than-than just scary villains! They loved us!

Snake

Oh, yeah?! If they "loved" us so much, how come we're in prison for a crime we didn't commit? You know what? I'll give Marmalade this: At least he sees the world for what it is - a place where some people are scary and some people are scared!

Wolf

Oh, yeah? Well, I'm tired of being scary. I'm… I'm tired of being an outcast. Maybe I don't wanna be—

Snake

What? A Bad Guy?! Don't wanna be a Bad Guy anymore, huh? Say it, Wolf! [Wolf just glares at Snake and says nothing.] Yeah, I thought so. And us, your lifelong friends? We're just holding you back?

Wolf

YEAH, MAYBE YOU ARE!

Snake
[Snake gasps softly while Shark, Webs and Piranha look at each other in shock. Then Snake leaps on him, furiously attacking him. The others all gasp in horror.] [starts strangling Wolf]

TAKE IT BACK! TAKE IT BACK! APOLOGIZE!

Prison Guard 1
[breaks up Snake and Wolf]

Hey, hey, hey, hey! Prison is no place for fighting!

Prison Guard 2
[A guard falls on the prison floor behind them.] [points up, weakened]

Tell that to him.

Wolf

Huh?
[Snake, Wolf and the guards look up to see the Crimson Paw dropping from the upper floor to the rescue.]
