John

Ben is back on the team, hurray!

Ben risks his life to get Johnny back to normal then immediately reverts to being a dick to him.

To be fair, Reed, yes, you've lied to him a few times. That's why he quit the team!

Wow, Mole Man, not inviting Ben to your weird night club party?

When it's clobberin' time but you weren't invited

oh that is great.

Ben understandably troubled.

Yeah, that seems right.

Holy shit

Of all the subterranean kingdoms in all the world, she has to walk into mine.

Ben has made the cardinal mistake of asking his ex a question he doesn't actually want the answer to.

Get yourself a friend who looks at the guy who stole your girl the way the Mole Man looks at Johnny Storm.

Reed definitely like "uhh....yeah, I don't know about this."

Nothing suspicious here, no sir.

This whole Mole Man thing is fascinating, really.

Ben definitely a bit too enthusiastic about being a Mole Man guy now. Feels forced.

Butler Moloid is amazing.

Well this all seems insane.

Sometimes all you need to get some perspective on your life is to move to Monster Island and become an acolyte of the Mole Man.

Ben's a Mole Man guy now.

Did we already know there was a Valley of Diamonds on Monster Island?

Reed's powers remain distressing.

Stan is scripting, so of course there's a lot of "Reed telling Sue what to do"

Yeah, absolutely. It's a really good Sue moment, especially given that in 11 years of writing the book Stan wrote barely any good Sue moments.

I feel like someone needs to be like "look, Alicia, you're his ex-girlfriend, probably best you sit this one out."

Cut to Jen. "huh, it's really quiet around here, wonder where everyone is."

This is an interesting take, and also really interesting that it comes (at least partially) from Stan.

That's right, fuck Ben!

Reed just sitting in his lab for hours looking longingly at holograms of Ben.

Sue: not winning mother of the year award any time soon.
