The Lair Legion was gathered in their headquarters. But something was different. The monitor room was empty. The defenses were off. The Lair Legion was… lounging around in the recreation room.

Banjooooo: Harglargle…

spiffy: What?

Banjooooo: Dunno.

spiffy: Good.

FFF: So… should we be doing anything?

Lisa: We could…

FFF: Never mind.

Donar: Verily, ‘tis National Geographic on yonder viewscreen. Methinks it is our sacred duty to observe such a wonderful program. spiffy: Hm… whatever… I’m gonna take another nap.

Banjooooo: Harglargle…

spiffy: What?

Banjooooo: Dunno.

spiffy: Good.

Lisa: Hey, Bubba, how’s it going? Need to… relax… yet? Bubba: No, my dear, I’m doing just fine. There haven’t been any attacks recently.

Lisa: All right, hon. Just let me know when you need a… break.

 

Hours later

 

Zemo: At last, the ultimate weapon… this flea-sized robot can infiltrate the Lair Legion headquarters with ease… and then spread its terrifying chaos among those despicable heroes!

Ahahahahahahaha!!!!

Fleabot: Sir? May I go now?

Zemo: Yes, my creation. Go… and destroy! Fleabot: Must I? I would so enjoy some nice conversation… Zemo: Just do it!

Fleabot: All right…

Banjooooo: Harglargle…

spiffy: Wha-

FFF: Shut up!

spiffy: Sorry…

Banjooooo: Harglargle…

Bubba: Everyone, we’re under attack again. It’s a chaos-spreading fleabot. I’ll just destroy it… wait… this one seems intelligent. Hello there?

Fleabot: What… oh, hello. You are the ones I’m supposed to destroy?

Bubba: Yeah, probably…

Fleabot: Well, I suppose I should get on with it… Bubba: Wouldn’t you much rather just talk about life, though? Fleabot: As a matter of fact, I would! Does this mean I don’t have to destroy you?

Bubba: It does. In fact, you can stick around here!

Zemo: What’s taking so long… hell with it, let’s bombard the place!

Flunkie: Yessir.

 

They bombard the place.

 

Zemo: What the… since when do they have a forcefield?

Bubba: Oh, by the way, I took the liberty of erecting a forcefield to protect us.

Lisa: Erecting… excellent…

Bubba: Er… yes…

Zemo: Guess I’ll have to figure something else out. Let’s go.

Flunkie: Yessir.

Lisa: So… Bubba… you have a sexy name. Bubba: Thank you. Now, Lisa, my dear, I was wondering… would you care to accompany me to dinner tonight?

Lisa: You mean sex?

Bubba: No… dinner.

Lisa: … sex?

Bubba: Dinner.

Lisa: Ohhhhhh, dinner… sorry, it’s been a long time… actually, I’d love to!

Bubba: That’s excellent. I’ll make the arrangements.

 

And Jarvis looked on in anger…
