[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]
[TV NARRATOR] The skein buds
have been located in older women
and can be ignited or kick
started by a younger woman.
Doctors have located the source of
the EOD or Electric Organ Discharge.
It comes from the skein,
a new organ that stretches
across the collarbone
containing thousands of disk-like cells
called electrocytes and electroplaxes.
These disks are stacked
against each other,
and an electrical charge is
created by pushing electrons
through these cells in one direction.
The charge is released by suddenly
letting the electrons
flow back the other way.
A shock, spark or EOD charge can
come from any part of the body.
Though it takes practice
to make that happen.
Now for some safety tips.
Be careful when using
electrical products in the house,
such as toasters and telephones
[ANIMAL CALLING]
[SAVANNAH] Ouch!
Ouch!
Oh, Jesus!
I thought you were Veronica.
Sorry, I was just supposed
to feed the chickens.

won't let us have razors.
[ELECTRICITY BUZZES]
Like we need 'em anymore.
If we really wanna hurt someone
Or ourselves

that dour old bitch coming.
She sees me doing this,
she'll take my phone away.

what makes you special, baby.
Like the eels.
You can use your power better
than any of these girls.
In ways no one can see.
Uh, don't you gotta,
like, feed the chickens?
Oh.
Yeah.
[CHICKENS CLUCKING]
[THE VOICE] Smart girl.
Metal conducts.
Dial it back.
Stealth mode, baby.
Remember the eels?
They use their electricity
to hijack their prey's mind.
Connect.
Try and make it walk.

and I'm here to investigate
how the new law is impacting
the people of Saudi,

[SISTER VERONICA] This Power
What it will do to the world
This is the Devil's work, Maria.
No, it's not. It's not, Veronica.
People said that about television,
rock and roll, women wearing pants
This is different!
I don't trust Eve.
You don't trust any of them.
I don't think she's being
honest about who she is.
So what?
Jesus did not say clothe
the naked, feed the hungry,
but only if you have a valid ID.
She killed a chicken!
Veronica, we kill chickens all the time!
We eat them!
I have a bad feeling about her.
This girl This girl's gonna
make trouble. Mark my words.
I feel something different about her.
Something special.
Reminds me of you.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
She could lead.
[SISTER VERONICA] That's
what I'm afraid of.
What kind of influence will she be?
The second the storm passes,
tomorrow, she's out of here.
The good ones never let you stay.
[THE VOICE] You can stay if you want to.
You just have to own the place.

[TUNDE] It is awe inspiring to
see this Power, this new freedom
Being passed from one
outstretched hand to the next.
Now, across the world
A sleeping giant has been awakened.
Today will be known throughout
history as The Day of The Girls.
I'm getting rid of my
EOD as soon as I can.
No, you serious? We only just got it.
They took my daughter away from me.
Said I was dangerous.
That's bullshit, all right?
You haven't hurt anyone.
Even how I got it was bad.
Jason Wheelman, who's 26, FYI,
stuck an uninvited finger up my ass
and it's like he found an on switch.
Oh, shit. Okay.
I know.
You reckon if I root around up
there, I'll find an off switch?
No. Mm-mm.
You'll just get really shitty fingers.
Why do you reckon we got this thing?
It makes no sense.
Okay, come on, you really
think this was an accident?
A coincidence, just a chance thing?
Probably.
- Don't you?
- No, I don't really, come on.
They're all on TV like, "Shit,
what did we put in the water?
What's in their tampons?
What did we do to
possibly make this happen?"
You treat us like garbage for
all this time and now here we are.
Here we are.
Look, we got it because we need it.
[SIMA] So, you think it's God, really?
[ALLIE] Maybe, I mean
maybe there is a God
and she just left us alone all
these years to figure out the, what?
Equality between ourselves?
And then a few weeks
ago she just thought,
"Fuck it. You had your chance."
And now she's like, "Shit y'all.
I'mma have to step in with a little
something to even things out."
- [GIRLS LAUGHING]
- Go!
I think you're right.
[SAVANNAH] It's gonna be a
different world for my daughter.
[ALLIE] Already is.
We just gotta take it.
Thank you.
He won't even talk to me about it.
I think he's bottled it, you know?
I mean, there was two of them,
I told him there was two of them,
so why hasn't he gone after them?
[DARRELL] Dad doesn't
want any more trouble.
What, so he's just gonna
let them get away with it?
He's gotta take his time.
You want a drink?
I can deal with it. Why won't
he just let me deal with it?
All right, Billy Big Bollocks.
You don't think I could?
Just have a drink.
[CRACKLING]
Not in here, Rox!
Oh!
How much d'you give her, Terry?

My hands aren't going anywhere
near my cooch for a while.
Be just my luck to blast my foof off.
- [LAUGHS]
- That's what I'd be known for in life.
When I was a kid, my mum
used to tell me I'd go blind
if I even thought about
touching down there.
[LUANNE] Damn lies.
Kinda made me judge my grandma though.
She had glasses for reading.
[LUANNE] I wanna try it now.
[GORDY] So try it.

All right, hands off!
Enough, all right? I've said it
a thousand times already, enough!
- How would you feel if it was your mum?
- Roxy
- You gotta trust Dad.
- Why should I trust my Dad?
What has he ever done for
me? I'm not one of you, am I?
My mum isn't as important
to him as your mum,
so why the fuck should I trust my dad?
- You need to calm down.
- Stop saying that.
- OK, I'm sorry.
- Dad likes you best, okay?
- No, he doesn't.
- [DARRELL] Yeah, it's true.
You're his favourite.
Is that why he's giving
the business to Ricky then?
Nah, he wants to protect you.
- I don't need protecting.
- [TERRY] Yeah, we know.
[DARRELL] Look, when we
get back, talk to him.
All right, but what you
gonna do about it now?
Why do you care anyway?
You're off to your fucking

[DIAL BEEP]
Thank you, for all of this.
I'm so grateful.
And listen, if you need me to help
you get out of this place, I will.
You come here for 24 hours
and you know my country?
- Well, I've read about it
- You've read?
Wow. You're a top journalist for sure.
Last night, you guys were
here fighting for freedom?
I want change, yes, but
I'm not fighting to leave
I grew up in Jeddah.
My father sent me to Egypt as
a child, so I had an education.
I want it to be different, I want
all women to have what I have had.
But I love my country.
I'm I'm really sorry.
How do you feel when the
rest of the world tells you
what it's like to live in your
country, how unlucky you are,
even though they know nothing about it?
I find it a little bit irritating.
That's right, a little
bit irritating. [CHUCKLES]
Did you think you were going to save me?
[PHONE VIBRATES]
Your car is here.

and what d'you want?
I just come to say hi.
I know you from somewhere, don't I?

You killed my mum.

You can't use your
electricity under my roof.
It's time for you to go.
You don't get to tell
us what to do anymore.
["FEMME FATALE" BY
THE VELVET UNDERGROUND]
[TUNDE] In Saudi Arabia,
for women all over the world,
it is the dawn of a new day.
New freedoms.
New privileges.
New abilities.
A byproduct of new Power.
But this liberation is
not without its costs.
It is a law of nature that for
every action, there is a reaction.
But we must all be
better than our nature.
For those of us committed to
the equality of all humanity,
it must be our mission to ensure that
the price of this new day
dawning is not too steep.
And I believe we can.
I believe in our inherent goodness.
I have hope in the bright
rebirth beyond this reckoning.
The minute you stepped
out in front of this thing,
you became the face of it.
God I don't even know who
you fuckin' are right now.
Five minutes of fame
has gotten to your head.
You fuck with my Senate,
I'm gonna run dust
with what's left of your career.
You saw first-hand. This
bell is not getting un-rung.
This power is real.
All the women were told to leave.
They said I could keep you.
[JOS] I just feel like
a hundred pounds lighter
and a hundred times stronger.
Because I have this thing in me.
Don't. Move.
All of you, sit the fuck down!
