| Interviewer: I mean, what are your super-human powers? Can you see through steel?
The Tick: Um...
Interviewer: You know, with x-rays. Can you bend iron bars with your mind?
The Tick: Well, I.. uh, no.
Interviewer: Can you create energy-based multiples of yourself?
The Tick: (impressed) Whoa! Nope!
Interviewer: Can you make diamonds out of coal?
The Tick: No.
Interviewer: Shoot heat beams out of your eyes?
The Tick: No.
Interviewer: Breathe atomic fire?
The Tick: (indignant) No!
Interviewer: (clearing his throat) Well then, uh... can you destroy the Earth?
The Tick: (alarmed) Egad, I hope not! That's where I keep all my stuff!
Interviewer: (sighs) Yes, of course it is. Uh, tell me... do you have a girlfriend?
(The Tick lifts the television camera off the stand and speaks directly into it)
The Tick: (dramatically) I am mighty! I have a glow you cannot see! I've a heart as big as the moon, as warm as bathwater! We're superheroes, man. We don't have time to be charming! The boots of evil were made for walking. We're watching the big picture, friend. We know the score. We are a public service, not glamor boys!
Arthur: (indignant) Yeah!
The Tick: Not captains of industry. Not makers of things. Keep your vulgar monies! We are a justice sandwich; no toppings necessary! Living rooms of America, do you catch my drift? Do you dig?
Arthur: (clears his throat) I can fly. | The Evil Midnight Bomber: (to himself) ...and so he says to me, You want to be a bad guy? and I say, Yeah baby! I want to be bad! I says, surf's up space ponies, I'm making gravy without the lumps! (he laughs maniacally) | (The Tick, Arthur, Die Fledermaus and Sewer Urching are walking up to the Comet Club entrance)
The Tick: You must be the doorman.
Jim the Doorman: Yes, but men call me... Jim. ID's, please.
(They all look puzzled)
Arthur: Uh, heh heh, okay.
Die Fledermaus: Uh, wait a sec. I... I... may have left it in my other tights...
The Tick: Oh, I get it. Spelling America with a "k", are we?
Sewer Urchin: Oh, we're being carded. Definitely being carded.
Die Fledermaus: (handing over his ID) That's definitely not the best picture of me. It was a "bad ear" day.
Jim the Doorman: I'll say!
(The Tick hands over his ID. Jim looks at it for a moment)
Jim the Doorman: The Tick?
The Tick: And tingling for fun!
Jim the Doorman: This should be interesting. Okay.
(He turns and ushers them inside. Arthur passes last and Jim reacts to him)
Jim the Doorman: (to himself) Ah, my super-doorman sense is ringing! (he blows a whistle and then grabs Arthur after everyone has gone inside) Not so fast, sidekick!
Arthur: What?
Jim the Doorman: No sidekicks in the club! You go around back to the sidekick's lounge.
Arthur: (sighing) What. | Big Shot: Hey, it's my favorite blue man!
The Tick: Hey, Big Shot! My favorite emotionally-unbalanced, gun-toting vigilante!
Big Shot: Come on over. I want you to meet my new friends from Deer Town. This is Mighty Agrippa, Roman God of the Aqueduct.
Might Agrippa: Oh, well sometimes.
Big Shot: And this is Jet Valkyrie... a woman.
The Tick: Cool!
Big Shot: And this is Fishboy, Lost Prince of Atlantis. Gang, I want you to meet: The Tick!
(All activity and sound in the entire club abruptly stops)
Fishboy: Oh, man.
Jet Valkyrie: Ohhh, Barry's not going to like this.
Mighty Agrippa: No, Barry's not going to like this one bit.
Fishboy: Well, maybe he won't show up tonight. |

| When Arthur goes to the bathroom, there is an entrance to the Comet Club. How can that be, if the sidekick house is a totally separate building from the Comet Club? |
| |
| The doorman said, "Men call me... Jim". This is very reminiscent of Scene 20 in 1975's film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. King Arthur and his knights encounter an enchanter and asks his name. He responds with, "There are some who call me... Tim." |
