Recap

Open up to a usual day for the Fantastic Four -- an alien monster rampaging downtown. The Thing and the Human Torch take on the monster while making cracks at each other. Sue and Reed show up a little bit later, with Reed wielding a device designed to pen up a "Negative Zone." Reed uses the device to teleport the monster back to where it came from. Then, after the fight, the Fantastic Four unite on the ground, where they are greeted by the media. The media tells the team about a paper that Reed supposedly wrote. The paper tells of how Reed purposely exposed Sue, Ben, and Johnny to the rays that turned them into the Fantastic Four...

Episode Quotes
Sue: Jonathan Spencer Storm--is there something you'd like to tell me?
Johnny: No, and, ummm... it wasn't my fault. You know, whatever it is you're talking about.

Ben: It was an accident right? Doom messed up everything while we where on the station, right? Tell me you didn't write that paper...
Reed: I did publish a paper on the possible biological effects of cosmic rays years ago.
Johnny: Nerd alert!

Reed: This creature is a resident of a sub-dimension I discovered. A "Negative Zone," if you will. It's truly incredible to think that...
Susan: Reed! Big monster, about to eat us? Remember?
Reed: Right, sorry.

Johnny: (to Reed) Thanks for my powers, Doctor Evil, but I'm getting out of here before you grow me an extra arm or something.

Johnny: (to Susan) Look, I just found out that I am a really good-looking guinea pig...

Susan: Johnny, will you calm down! you can't believe anything you hear in the media... You know that. Think about all of the wild stories they've made up about you.
Johnny: Uh... sis, most of those stories about me are true. You're not helping Reed's case.

Johnny: I haven’t been attacked by an evil robot in days. Let’s see what you got!

Sue: Ben, stop it! These cells were designed to counter our powers.
Ben: Last time I checked, “ugly” wasn’t a power. If you want to trade, though…

Reed: We have to manually transpose the infected creatures, invert the dimensional flux, and...
Sue: Save the world. Got it.

Johnny: Yeah, we totally kicked Doom's tail. You know he's all ticked off about it, too! (imitates Doom) Mark my words, cretins! My vengeance shall be huge, like the size of my head! My brilliance is unparalleled, yet I always lose! For I am Doom! (the news reporters stare at him, confused) Well, that's what he's like.
