But, Aiden, if you don't
stand up for yourself,

no one else will!

[Barbara] She is so right.

Hey, did you guys start the
movie without me?

Karen, what are you doing
all the way over there?

Yeah. We thought
you were sitting right... Oh.

You thought I was a teddy bear?

It's because you're both
so... adorable.

Oh, okay, let me just
finish up with this.

Where is my
nano-oscillation scope?

If I can't find
my nano-oscillation scope,

I can't shut down
my nano-oscillator,

and if I can't shut down
my nano-oscillator,

my whole neogenic generator
will burn out!

[whirring]

I'm sure whatever nonsense
you're looking for,

it'll pop up.

[alarm beeping]

That's it.

My nano-oscillation scope.

Ew. In your mouth.

This? No, I just found it
on your desk.

Hey, Karen, If you don't want

people picking their teeth
with your stuff,

maybe don't make stuff
that looks like toothpicks.

I guess that's a good point.

Don't beat yourself up. Okay?

Kara, you really
should have more respect

for Karen's belongings.

We have an understanding
about these things.

- Right, Karen?
- Yeah. Yeah, Kara, we're good.

[wind blows]

Look alive, team!

Stop! Identify yourself.

Your world's at stake.
There's no time.

Oh, I'll tell you
what there's no time for.

Trespassing jerks
that don't listen!

[grunting]

[gasps] Hey!

Redurtni eb...

[muffled yelling]

I got this. I got this!

[grunts] She's good.

Stand down.

[grunting]

Uh, stay back!
This may not look dangerous...

You're not fooling
anyone, Karen.

Especially me.

[gasps]

You're... me?

Whoa! You're a time traveler?
Guys, this is Future Karen!

NightSting.

Cool name! Makes sense,
because you are pretty cool.

I mean, you did beat me and my friends up.
Which is not so cool.

But, again, time travel!
Super cool!

So did you invent your own
time machine, and if so, how?

By not wasting time
with pointless questions.

NightSting?
More like NightStink.

Um, did you say something
about the world being at stake?

This is my present.
Your future.

Unless you change it.

Me? But how?

Even the smallest events now

can have tremendous effects
on the future.

The butterfly effect.

So, we find a butterfly
and smash it?

Oh. Seems kinda mean,
but all right.

We don't have much time.

My chronocrystal will only keep
me here for a few moments.

Tell me what I have to do.

Something of yours was taken.

Its absence sets off
a chain of events

that destroys your world.

If you do not recover it
within the next 60 minutes,

the effects will be...
irreversible!

Wait a sec!

Did you just say something of
Karen's destroys the world?

- Yes, and...
- Like what?

Who took it?
Hurry, NightSting! Tell us!

You don't have much time!

One of them took your...

Oops.

For someone so smart,

you'd think she would've led with
the world-saving information.

Karen, I know I shouldn't be
mad at you

for something you technically
haven't done yet,

but I'm really mad at you.

I... I'm sorry, I think.

Come on, guys,
you heard NightSting.

This is end-of-the-world stuff here.

So which one of you
took something of mine?

Oh sure, I borrow
one thing without asking,

and suddenly I'm the causer
of the apocalypse?

Kara?

What? Oh, right.

Well, since it's come up,

I have been keeping track

of the stuff you've
"borrowed" from me, Kara.

Like my thermetrix drive.

I... I don't even know
what that is.

[Karen clears throat]

[device beeping]

Oh, a thermetrix drive. Right.

My bench was wobbling.
I didn't think you'd mind.

[growling]

It's not my fault!

My old controller broke
after I chucked it at a wall.

Yeah, but on the plus side,

that's the first time I've
had to charge my phone

since April.

If anything, Kara,
it is my hope

this exercise has shown you

to ask permission
before taking something.

[girls on couch] Mmm-hmm.

Interesting. That's your hope?

Because I was kind of hoping
this exercise

would prevent the apocalypse!

But how do I know which one
of these things Kara took

ends the world?

Here's a better question.

How are you so sure

I'm the one who took
whatever it is?

I'm not the only one here

who takes your stuff
without asking!

Kara's right.

That's crazy!

Babs, you're eating
my granola bar.

This? Really?

Well, I just found it
in this paper bag here.

Oh, wait. Yikes.
[giggles meekly]

[scoffs]

Not cool, Babs.

Uh, is that my banana?

[nervously] Maybe?

[chuckles nervously]

Okay, this whole thing was
taking, like, forever

and we were getting peckish.

But it was wrong,
and we are so sorry.

Also, it was 100% Babs's idea.

Oh, this is just perfect!

The world is gonna end,
and I can't stop it

because none of you treat me
or any of my stuff

with respect!

If it helps,

the doomsday object
probably isn't in your lunch.

You're right, Zee.
It doesn't help!

Uh, I think we broke Karen.

[growling]

Yeah, yeah.
You always just assume.

"Hey, Karen won't mind
if we take her stuff.

Or start the movie without her.

Or eat her tuna sandwich.

Because li'l ol' Karen
is a pushover!"

Now, 'cause of that assumption,

we're all doomed!

You're not a pushover, Karen.

Though you could stand to be
more assertive.

- Totally.
- Mmm-hmm.

Oh, can I?
Funny how you're all fine

telling me how I could
stand to be.

Hey, I know! Since the world
is gonna end,

how about I take a crack at
"fixing" your personalities?

Hmm. Not sure that's
the best use of time...

Okay, Zee,
let's start with you!

You have it all!

You're beautiful,
smart, popular.

Plus, you're great at magic.

- Well, thank you. I...
- So, here's a thought.

Why not see
if that book of yours

has a spell that can whip up
a sense of humility?

Boom! [laughs]
Not so fun, is it?

Karen!

I understand you're upset,
but in my opinion...

Wow! What do you know!

Jessica Cruz has an opinion!

I'd ask you to share it
with the group,

but, [chuckles]
what's the point?

You're gonna do it anyway!

Ha! Jess does have
a lot of opinions.

Ooh! Do me! Do me! Do me!

Oh, Barbara!

You're a living, breathing,
run-on sentence

with no punctuation!

Why not come up for air

and let someone else
spout gibberish a bit?

Whoa! You got me good!

[Kara] Yes, she did!

And you, Kara!

Huh? Me?
I think you got me already.

Oh, did I, Kara?

Did I really?

Did you actually
learn anything?

Well, yeah, you're right.

Probably not.

I will face head-on
whatever comes.

And you, Diana.

You say I should be
more assertive.

Well, I say you should be
a little more thoughtful.

I'm not some cutesy, little
adorable teddy bear!

Wait. What's that?

Caramel popcorn,

all-day jack smackers, root beer?

These are
all my favorite things.

We made you a swag bag
for movie night

and put it in your seat but...

Then we mistook you
for a plushie.

Sorry about that.

You guys. I don't know
what to say

other than you're the best
friends I've ever had.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.
We all gotta vent sometime.

I guess I've been keeping
a lot of stuff inside.

And with the end of the world
and all, I...

I lost my cool.

We understand.

As terrifying as that was,
you made some good points.

[both murmuring in agreement]

Yeah, we...

Well, I have been
taking advantage of you

a lot lately.

I'm sorry for that.

We all are.

And we promise to be
more considerate.

On one condition.

The next time
something bugs you,

say something.

Don't hold it in.

Because we don't wanna see
Rage-Monster Karen again.

- Like, ever.
- Deal.

If there is a next time.

The world is about to end

because I still haven't found
what I'm missing.

[portal opens]

[NightSting]
Haven't you though?

NightSting?

I'd say you found exactly
what I intended you to find.

Your backbone.

[all but Karen] What?

Uh, what?

In order to become this
take-charge, no-nonsense hero

that stands before you today,

you must learn
to become aggressive.

I learned that lesson
late in life.

But if I'd learned it sooner,

I could have become
an even more take-charge

and even less nonsense hero.

So, this was all a game?

But the end of the world?
You said...

I said it'd be the end
of your world.

Which is true.

What's the point of living

if you're going to spend
your whole life

being a pushover?

And the apocalypse?
Those images!

You said they were
from the future!

They are from the future.

Those were clips from Just Before
Dusk 17: A Doomsday Affair.

The franchise goes in
some strange directions.

Hey, hey, hey! No spoilers!

What about the whole


Okay, that was for the drama.

You can't argue
with the results.

[groans]

Remember how we never wanted
to see the Rage-Monster again?

Maybe one more time.

Listen here, NightSting!

[chuckles] Oh, no, really,
there's no need to thank me!

Thank you?

You come in here,
beat up my friends,

lie to me,

and expect a thank you?

I know I'm still figuring out

the kind of person
I'm gonna be some day,

but one thing I know for sure.

I'm definitely never,
ever gonna grow up

to be a jerk like you!

[chuckles]

Please, Karen, you think...

Wait, what's happening?

Well, if I don't grow up
to be you...

No. You mean...
You mean I cease to exist?

What was that you said
about pointless questions?

No!

So, what do you say
we watch that movie?

From the beginning?

[girl] But, Aiden...

[on tv] if you don't
stand up for yourself,

no one else will!
