In the Toon Manor basement; many of the Sonic Underground members minus Penny and Ray were tuning their instruments.
"Okay, now from the top." said Sonic.
Before the band could do anything else; Penny entered the room.
"I've got good news and bad news." said Penny.
The others turned to Penny.
"Start with the good news first." said Howard.
"The good news is that there's going to be a midnight showing of the Justice League film." said Penny.
The band became shocked.
"For real, when?" said Ben.
"That's the bad news, it's happening on the 16th." said Penny.
Randy checked his phone.
"Eh, we've got four days." said Randy.
"Yeah, good-"Trent said before realizing something, "Wait a minute, why isn't Ray here?"
"That's the other bad news." said Penny.
Everyone became confused.
Meanwhile with Ray; he was sitting on a lawn chair in front of a movie theater drinking coffee.
"Mmm, bold flavor." said Ray.
Then the entire Sonic Underground appeared.
"Ray, what the hell are you doing here?" said Ben.
Ray chuckled.
"What's it look like? I'm waiting for the Justice League midnight showing." said Ray, "I've been here for two days straight."
Everyone is shocked
"Two days?" said Kai.
Ray nodded.
"Well that would explain why you haven't been at our rehersals for that long." said Sonic.
Ray then pulled out some slim jim beef sticks.
"Snap into a Slim Jim?" said Ray.
Sonic smiled and grabbed one.
"Sure." said Sonic.
He then sat down on the sidewalk followed by the others.
"I've been hoping to see the Justice League film since Batman V Superman." said Ray.
Randy turned to Luna.
"That reminds me, how's Meek enjoying his new job as a member of the Justice League?" said Randy.
"He's doing great. He and SuperGirl hit it off well." said Luna.
"And they're not mad that he and Killer Frost are Friends?" Asked Sonic
"There have been issues." said Luna, "And complaints."
"Typical." said Ben, "Those guys never offered me a membership even though I took part in the whole ordeal."
"That's because you're already a Plumber." said Howard.
Ben did some thinking.
"Good point." said Ben.
He then thought of something.
"But if I recall some of the heroes are in different teams and still part of the Justice League." said Ben. "Plus Tommy Oliver was on four different Power Rangers Teams."
Everyone nodded at that.
"That's true." said Howard.
"Yep." said Ray.
"Good point." said Luna.
"And of those four teams, they were all under one person's mentorship, while the third team had a different mentor shortly afterwards, and the fourth team he was the mentor." said Sonic.
The group nodded.
"Wait a minute, we're going to be missing school if we stay in line for this film." said Randy, "And I'm pretty sure Ben is part of the League."
Ray chuckled.
"Way ahead of you." said Ray.
He then pulled out an iPad and pushed some icons, making a robotic version of Ray appear.
"Meet Raybot 2000." said Ray.
Everyone turned to the robot.
"This thing will be going to my classes while I'm staying here waiting for Justice League to open in theaters." said Ray.
Howard tapped the robot.
"How did you get the body parts to float?" said Howard.
"It's complicated." said Ray.
He then pushed a button on his iPad and the robot walked off.
"Huh, so you've been prepared to see this film for a while now." said Sonic.
"Yep, got tons of food, beverages, a sleeping bag, and a way to do all my school work." said Ray, "And it's all worth it."
"What about going to the rest room?" Asked Ben.
Ray then pulled out a water bottle and held it down to his crotch area and urinating sounds were heard.
Ben became shocked and turned green.
"Forget I asked." said Ben.
"To late." said Ray.
He continued urinating as everyone stared on in confusion.
"How is he even doing that?" said Howard.
"I don't know, I always thought he never had a male reproductive organ." said Luna.
Howard turned to Luna.
"This coming from someone who's dating a guy who doesn't even have a visible one." said Howard, "How can you even be sure it's even there, he wears pants even though about half the guy Mobian population doesn't wear any pants."
Luna punched her bandmate.
"It's there, I know it." said Luna.
Ray stopped urinating and sighed.
"That felt good." said Ray.
He placed a cap on the bottle and tossed it into a recycling can.
Oscar the grouch came out and is mad.
"DONT DO THAT!" He shouted. "THATS GROSS EVEN FOR ME!"
Everyone looked at Oscar.
"Why are you in a recycling bin?" Asked Ben.
Oscar groaned.
"I was forced out of my own home due to tons of radiation poisoning." said Oscar.
"You look fine." said Kai.
"My neighbors weren't." said Oscar.
"And how is it that you didn't get any radiation poisoning?" said Sonic.
Oscar chuckled.
"I've got a kickass immune system, I've been living in my own crap for about 40 years." said Oscar.
Then some mechanical arms grabbed the can and lifted it up.
"Wait, what's going on, no, don't, NOOOOOOOOOOO!" yelled Oscar.
But he was dumped into a recycled garbage truck before it drove off.
"Eh, he was an asshole." said Trent.
"But he cared for his friends and family." said Ray
Sonic was currently sitting down on a lawn chair eating a Slim Jim.
Everyone noticed it.
"What, like I'm going to waste an opportunity like this." said Sonic.
His band mates nodded and did the same thing.
"Hey, we're going to be missing out on school for several days." said Trent.
Randy chuckled.
"Way ahead of you." said Randy.
He then pulled out his phone and sent one text saying 'I need to take some time off from the Zoo due to a family emergency' and another to Theresa saying 'I'm going to be in line for the midnight premiere to the Justice League film, can you bring my homework over to the recliner movie theater for the next four days?'
He then saw a smily face emoji from Theresa before putting his phone away.
"I'll be doing my school work in line for a movie." said Randy.
"Yep, for a Justice League movie." said Ben.
Everyone nodded.
"Still though, seeing a Justice League film when one of our friends is now a member of the Justice League, that's actually either very odd or impressive." Penny.
"Or both." said Ray.
The group continued to lounge on the sidewalk.
"So what should we do till then?" said Howard.
"I've got something to kill time." said Ray.
He pulled out a purple fidget spinner and held it on one finger before spinning it.
The others became confused.
"How's that going to kill time?" said Sonic.
"All it does is spin in a circle very fast." said Randy.
"True, but it's very interesting." said Ray.
Everyone just stared at Ray.
"We need to find something else to do." said Trent.
