The King’s Evil Brother





Don't get clever, Boris.
You don't know him.

Know him. 
Know him.

You don't know him!
You don't know him!

You don't know him! 
You don't know...



Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
Ox has got the skull.
Marion, take the wheel.

Henry Jones III :
That's not fair. 
She drove the truck.

Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
Don't be a child.
Find something to fight with.

The King’s Evil Brother :
[His Arms, wide — ]
Jonesey!
Jonesey!

Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
Hi, Mac.
[PUNCH!]

The King’s Evil Brother :
Indy. Indy! Indy!

Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
Shut up! Shut up!


The King’s Evil Brother :
You stupid son of a bitch! 
I'm CIA.

Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
CIA?

The King’s Evil Brother :
I almost screamed it at you in the tent.
I said, "Just like Berlin."
What were we in Berlin, mate?

BOTH :
Double agents!


The King’s Evil Brother :
Sorry, Jonesey.

Prof. Henry Jones, Jr. :
So what are you, a triple agent?

The King’s Evil Brother :
Nah, I just lied about being a double.


Ego, The Living Planet :
And that is when I came… to a profound realization. 
My innate desire to seek out other life was not so that I could walk among that life. 

Peter… I have found meaning.

I call it The Expansion. 

It is My Purpose… 
and now it is Yours as well.

Over thousands of years, I implanted thousands of extensions of myself on thousands of worlds. 
I need to fulfill 
Life’s one true purpose… 

To grow and spread… 
covering all that exists… 
until everything is… Me!


I only had one problem :
A single Celestial doesn’t have enough power for such an enterprise. 

But two Celestials… 
Well, now, that just might do.

Out of all my labors, the most beguiling was attempting to graft my DNA with that of another species. 

I hoped the result of such a coupling would be enough to 
Power The Expansion. 

I had Yondu deliver some of them to me. 
It broke the Ravager code, 
but I compensated him generously… 
and to ease his conscience, 
I said I’d never hurt them. 

I mean, that was true. 
They never felt a thing

But one after the other, they failed me. 
Not one of them carried the Celestial genes.

 Until you, Peter.

 Out of all my spawn…
only you carried the connection to The Light.

For the first time in my existence… 
I am truly NOT ALONE! 

[notices Peter's sad expression] 
What is it, son?

Peter Quill: 
My friends.

Ego : 
You see, that’s The Mortal 
in you, Peter.

Quill: 
Yes.

Ego
We are beyond such things.

Quill
Yes.

Ego
Now…

Quill
But My Mother… 
You said you loved My Mother.

Ego
And that I did. 

My river Lily who knew all the words to every song that came over the radio. 

I returned to Earth to see her 3 times. 
And I knew if I returned a fourth… 
I’d never leave. 

The Expansion… 
The Reason for my very existence, 
would be over. 

So, I did what I had to do. 
But it broke my heart to 
put that tumor in her head.


Peter Quill
[hearing this, he breaks off Ego's power] 
What?!?

Ego the Living Planet
Now, all right… 
I know that sounds bad. 

[in rage, Peter fires multiple Element Gun shots at Ego
