Allen the Alien and Thaedus in “Unfinished Business”

Allen the Alien

(inhales deeply, groans) Oh, wow. (groans) Wow. Oh, wow. I'm not dead. I was pretty sure I was dead. Felt like I was dead. This is... Oh, this is a nice surprise. Um... Hello? Hello? Someone want to let me out of this, uh, thing? Well, this is great. (sighs)(he accidentally breaks out of the container) Oh, no. Oh, I'm sorr... sorry! Oh, God, oh, crap. Oh, I broke... I broke it. I broke it. (he gets up, and is revealed to be more muscular) Oh, this thing, I bet this is... Oh, I bet this is expensive. Oh, God. (notices his restored and bigger body) Huh. (laughs) Huh. Would you look at that?

Thaedus

I am glad to see you in one piece, Allen of Unopa.

Allen the Alien

Yeah. One very large and ripped piece.

Thaedus

Yes. I'm afraid I owe you an apology. When we brought you here after the Viltrumite attack, I turned off your life-support machine and left you to fend for yourself.

Allen the Alien

What? Why? W-Why would you do that?

Thaedus

I knew, without it, you would either die or recover stronger than before. I am sorry I gambled with your life, but it has paid off. You may now be able to stand your ground against a Viltrumite.

Allen the Alien

Yeah, I doubt that. They hit me so hard my eye came out. I remember seeing that, like, from my own eye. It was very strange.

Thaedus

You underestimate yourself, Allen.

Allen the Alien

Yeah, well, I appreciate your vote of confidence, but I'm not gonna ask for a rematch anytime soon. If I even see another Viltrumite, I'm gonna... (Thaedus asks for a moment of silence, and removes his fake beard, leaving only his mustache; shocked) Holy shit! (leaps out of the container) You're a Viltrumite?!

Thaedus

No, I am something much worse. I am the only Viltrumite to ever rebel against the empire. At least, until you told me about Invincible. Allen, I need you to go back to Earth and bring Invincible here. He is the key to turning the tide of this war.
