supervise him.

I need his talent.

I believe he and Reed

can finally get us there.

We want to support you,

Franklin,

but you put a lot

of faith in these kids.

I put all my faith in them.

So someone stole my design.

No one stole anything, Victor.

Someone else

figured out your idea...

and made it work.

That's what happens when

you drop out of the world.

Other people finish

what you started.

Well, if you came

to ask for help,

be better you didn't

insult both of us...

and turn back around.

Don't you wanna even

look at the designs?

I told you I'm done working

for you and your employers.

They're not my employers.

You can't do a thing

without their permission, yes?

Wake up. You're an employee.

They'll stay out of my way

this time. Trust me.

It's not you I don't trust.

Yeah.

Well...

I hate to interfere with

all of your important work.

Guess we'll just have

to make history without you.

Is Sue gonna be there?

I trust her.

Yes, Victor, she'll be there.

Clean yourself up, son.

Holy sh*t.

Amazing.

Oh, thanks.

Amazing you didn't black out

the entire Western Hemisphere.

Hmm?

You basically ripped a hole

in the fabric of space-time

with unspec'd components

and no supervision.

Yeah, that was, uh, an accident.

And if, by accident,

you upped the power...

you would have created

a runaway reaction

that opened a black hole...

and swallowed the entire planet.

Well, I'm glad

that didn't happen.

Are you helping on this?

I'm making

the environment suits.

Based on the soil samples

from our experiments...

anyone who goes

to the other dimension

is gonna need to be protected.

Who's that?

Victor.

Who's Victor?

He started this whole project.

Oh. Does he go here, too?

It's complicated.

Rudimentary.

Elementary.

This is basically

a child's drawing.

You know what

Albert Einstein said.

"If you can't explain it simply,

"you don't understand it

well enough."

Ten years searching

for something

that is basically runner-up

for a baking soda volcano.

We were actually disqualified.

The potato clock got second.

Reed Richards, Victor Von Doom.

Victor started

the Quantum Gate project

when he was younger than you.

Wow. It's great

to meet you.

Hi, Susan.

Hey, Victor.

Do you prefer "Susan"?

No.

It's been a while.

Didn't expect to

see you back here.

Yeah, well, I couldn't resist.

When I heard about the design,

I needed to see it

with my own eyes.

I gotta say,

it's pretty impressive...

Thank you.

...that you nearly destroyed

our entire planet

with speaker cable

and aluminum foil.

Yeah, that was an accident.

He did get it to work.

What is this?

This is where your little,

uh, accident leads to.
