"But when they're not saving Earth from frightful foes, they are a surprisingly normal family. And the heart of that family is Ben Grimm, better known as the Thing. Ben's rocky orange exterior hides a gentle soul."
―Documentarian

Meet Ben Grimm The Thing, stylized as Meet Ben Grimm 🪨💪 The Thing, is the fourth episode of the first season of Meet the Fantastic Four.

Synopsis[]

Meet Ben Grimm, AKA, The Thing! He might have a rocky, hard exterior, but deep down, he has a heart of gold! Learn how his superhuman strength, loyalty, and resilience make him a vital part of the Fantastic Four! It's clobberin' time!

Plot[]

The Fantastic Four all watch television together while the documentary crew films and a documentarian narrates about Ben Grimm being the heart of their family. At Sunday dinner, Johnny Storm uses his powers to light Grimm's food on fire, but Grimm smiles as he was prepared this time and covers the food with a lid. Earlier that day, Grimm is interviewed by the documentary crew while eating a black-and-white cookie outside of Maisie's Delicatessen. Grimm expresses concern about getting surrounded by his fans and boasts about his strength.

The documentary crew interviews Reed Richards while he is experimenting, and he comments that Grimm might be one of the strongest individuals on Earth. The crew interview Storm, who compliments Grimm's piloting skills and says that Grimm is like a brother to him. Sue Storm commends Grimm for not letting the change to his appearance change his humor or his love of life. Back with Grimm, the interview is interrupted by a car speeding towards the curb. Grimm picks the car up, tossing his cookie aside to do so. The driver apologizes and explains that his pedal got stuck, and Grimm insists that the driver owes him a cookie.

That night, the Fantastic Four finish their family dinner and are prepare for desert when an explosion goes off, cutting their dinner short again. Grimm says that they will be back while the documentarian notes that the crew is running out of budget and they likely only have enough for one more attempt at filming Sunday dinner.
