"Well, to be fair, it wasn't just the spider. There were also - hold up, I think they're recording." Thomas and Lynn go invisible.

Meanwhile, Kash walks up to the old house, fully dressed and ready to go. She stops, turns to face the cameras, and they start rolling.

"Hello, one and all! This is Kash Kindra coming at you live with the Shining Star, here to bring you the latest news!" Kash says to the camera. "This story begins a few hours ago, in this very neighborhood. A local man who has asked to stay anonymous was preparing to get some exercise in when he noticed his neighbors - Ryan and Helen Johnstone - coming home with an unwilling passenger. Naturally, he found his video camera, and began recording in hopes of reporting the two to the police for kidnapping. However, our source got more than he expected when several mutants showed up and began a fight with the two kidnapp-"

She's interrupted by a loud crack. The cameras turn, catching Slick as he exits his hiding place, his body briefly returning to normal before he twists his torso 360 degrees. "Didn't think I was tired enough to fall asleep in one...of...the...cracks..."

Slick stares at the cameras pointed at him, blinking when Kash faces him, staying in view of the camera. "I can't believe it...ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the mutants our anonymous source managed to record! All you skeptics at home - here's living proof that the footage is real. I repeat - the footage is real!"

"...Okay then." Slick just stands there, surrounded by cameras, doing nothing aside from the ocassional stretch.

Kash notices. "...What are you doing?"

"Standing." Slick replies.

"Well, that much is obvious...but aren't you going to attack? Run away?" Kash asks.

"Why should I?" Slick replies.

Kash blinks. This is...odd. Her first real encounter with a mutant, and it's nothing like she expected. It's likely not what the audience expected, either...perhaps she can work with this.

Even if it fails, her death would at least be on television.

"Well...seeing as you appear to be not hostile..." Kash starts. "...I'd like to ask you a few questions."

Slick shrugs. "Eh, I'm fine with that."
