Johnny Storm

Look, sorry Sue. I'm going back out into the real world.

Johnny Storm

If you guys are jealous that's fine. I never would of have expected to be coming from you, though.

Victor

Maybe you should have stayed back in the lab. Field work never suited you.

Ben

He does the talking, I do the walking. Got it?

Victor

So take a walk, Ben...

Ben

Can't do it. I cannot do it.

External SRBs, orbital system engines. Its just like the shuttles you flew in -

Ben

No. I cannot take orders from the underwear model. That wingnut washed out of NASA for sneaking two Victoria Secret wannabes into a flight simulator.

Youthful high spirits.

Ben

They crashed it into a wall. A flight simulator.

When have I asked you to do something you absolutely said you couldn't –

Ben

Five times.

...I had it at four.

Ben

Well this makes five!

Doom

did you say goodbye to your brother Johnny? It's time to end this!

Ben
[Grimm, transformed back into the Thing, crashes through the roof]

No, Vic, IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!

Ben

What's wrong with me?

Johnny

I swear they've done everything humanly possible. The best plastic surgeons in the world, Ben. You had the best -

Ben
(getting frantic)

Give me a mirror...

Johnny

They said that's not such a good idea, the shock alone could –

Ben

I said give me the goddamn mirror!

Johnny
(Ben finally sees his face, it looks completely normal) (beginning to laugh)

Unfortunately, the doctors just couldn't do anything to fix your face.

Sue
(to Reed)

Look at me.

(looking up and seeing, or not seeing that Sue has turned invisible)

I can't.

Sue

What do you mean you can't?! Look at me!

Sue, look at your hands!

Johnny
(with his shirt off, being given a physical by Reed and Sue)

I think we have a serious problem.

(Sue turns invisible and starts to undress, then turns visible again)

Wow. You've been working out.

Sue

Shut up!

Johnny

Wait. You mean we won't be able to turn on and off? That would save time.

Sue

You don't want walk around on fire for the rest of your life, do you?

Johnny

Is that a trick question?

Sue

Grow up.

Johnny

Come on! Am I the only guy who thinks this is cool?

Sue

Johnny, say you're sorry.

Ben
(Johnny throws a fireball at Ben)

Did you just--

Ben
(Johnny throws another fireball at Ben)

That's it, Tinker Bell! YOU WANNA FLY?!

No, Ben.

Ben

THEN FLY!!!

Sue
(Ben punches through Reed's body to launch Johnny into the Burger King sign)

Wait a minute, guys. Ben, don't do this.

Johnny
(Ben growls at Johnny)

Let's see if we can get blood from a stone.

Sue

Johnny?

Ben

Let's see. Bring it, Burnout.

Reporter

So what can you tell us about the outfit?

Johnny
(on tv)

Not too much, but I will say that it's all weather and no leather. Kind of Armani meets Astronaut.

Sue
(Ben, Sue, and Reed stare at the wall-sized TV, mouths agape.)

He didn't.

Ben

Oh, yes, he did. Flame-boy never listens.

Sue

What did he do to his uniform?

Reporter
(Reed looks down at his own uniform, to Johnny's uniform on the TV, which has the same insignia, and surreptitiously tries to cover his insignia with his jacket)

So what are your superhero names?

Johnny

They call me the Human Torch. Ladies call me Torch.

Reporter

What about the rest of the team?

Johnny
[points to a visual]

That's the Invisible Girl.

Sue

'Girl'..?

Reporter

That's easy to remember. And Reed Richards? I heard they call him Mr. Fantastic. And can he really stretch any part of his anatomy?

Johnny
(Cheers from the female members of the public behind them)

Well, I've always found him to be a little limp.

Ben
(Another cheer from the people behind them)

Could be worse.

Reporter

What is that? What is that thing?

Johnny

That's it. The Thing. If you think that's bad, you should have seen him before.

Ben

Okay, now I'm gonna go kill him.

Victor
[Ben and Leonard walk into the lab where Victor is.]

Ben. Come in.

Ben
[Ben and Leonard stop walking.]

What is this? Where's Reed?

Victor

Where do you think? With Sue.

Victor
[Ben turns to Leonard.]

I'll take it from here, Leonard.

Leonard

Yes, sir.

Ben
[As Leonard turns around and walks towards the elevator, Ben turns to Victor and walks up to him.]

What do you want, Vic?

Victor

To help you. The machine– is ready.

Ben
[Walks closer]

But Reed said it wouldn't be–

Victor

He also said we'd avoid that storm in space. But we all know how that turned out. He couldn't generate enough power for the machine to reach critical mass. Yet another mistake for Mr. Fantastic.

Ben
[Walks closer]

And you can?

Victor

Yes. Tell me, do you want to be Ben Grimm again?
[Ben looks down at his hands, then closes his eyes. He opens his eyes and looks up at Victor. The doors of the machine open. Ben steps inside the machine. He turns around to see Victor before the doors close. Victor sets the machine to its highest level, then presses a button on the machine. The levels rise as Ben groans from inside the machine just before the equipment begins to power down. Walking over to the containment area of the machine, Victor opens it, revealing a miniture storm. As the storm swirled around, Victor reaches inside the containment unit and uses his powers to power up the machine, causing lightning to flow from inside the containment unit and into the machine. The machine's power levels rise higher and higher as Ben's screams fill the air. As the cosmic energy flowed through Victor and the machine, lights began to flash through the lab and the top of the building, causing the lights in the building to flicker. In Reed's bedroom, Reed is lying on a bed when he slowly opens his eyes and notices the lights flicker. Sue is looking through a medicine cabinet when she notices the lights flicker. In Times Square, Johnny sees lights flashing through the building and runs to it.]

Susan

We gotta get out of here.

Johnny

I got an idea.

Susan

Don't even think about it.

Johnny

Never do. (jumps off the building) FLAME ON!

Victor

Susan, let's not fight.

Sue

No. Let's.
About Fantastic Four (2005 film)[edit]

Johnny Storm

Digital camera: $254. Memory stick: $59. The look on your hard-ass former CO's grill when he finds out he's your junior officer: priceless.

Johnny Storm
(sarcastically)

Wow, Dr. Phil, that's deep. Let's think about that for a moment.

Johnny Storm
(Nurse; You're hot!)

Why thank you, so are you. And, I'm not afraid to cry.

Johnny Storm

At what time do you get off work? (Nurse replies and he answers) Tell you what? You meet me at 4:01, it'll give you a minute to freshen up.

Johnny Storm
(to Nurse, after giving her back her thermometer)

This is yours. (kisses her on the lips) That's mine.

Johnny Storm

Nurses. (whispering as he exits the room)

Johnny Storm

Guys! Guys!? (is stared at for being naked only wearing a wrapped coat around his waist) I can explain.

Johnny Storm

Look, look! (is snapping his fingers to ignite a flame akin to a zippo, repeats to turn off the flame ignited by the snapping) Now picture that. But everywhere! (cackles) Cool!

Johnny Storm

You have been saying that for years.

Johnny Storm

What? Like we won't be able to turn on and off? (chuckles)That would save time.

Johnny Storm

Whoa! (after bursting out in flames while being examined by Sue and Richard)

Johnny Storm

Fun Filled! (laughing) You guys are cramping my style.

Johnny Storm

Sweet! (referring to Sue and Richard's terms of Supernova) Got it. Supernova. Bad. (thumbs up)

Johnny Storm

Whoa. That's dangerous. I'm okay. I'm fine.

Johnny Storm

See? That's your problem Reed. You always think you never act.

Johnny Storm

What if we got these powers for a reason? A higher calling?

Johnny Storm

You guys should accept it... or better yet enjoy it.

Johnny Storm

Hey! Hey, look! (turns on The Thing action figure and it shouts, 'It's Clobberin' time!)

Johnny Storm
(after The Thing crushes the action figure)

Awww! That was the prototype!

Johnny Storm

Look, Sue, I'm sorry. I can't stand this freak show. I gotta get back to the real world.

Johnny Storm

Sue, stop. You're not mom. Don't talk to me like I'm a little boy, okay?

Johnny Storm

If you guys are jealous, that's fine. I didn't expect it to come from you, though.

Johnny Storm

Let's try something new. You live your life, I'll live mine. Sound good? Oh, and just for the record, they love me!

Johnny Storm
(To The Thing)

: Where are your ears?

Johnny Storm

Whoa. Ladies. I need names and shots. Bartender!
