Cleopatra 2525 s01e09 Episode Script
Perceptions
(computer voice) Security breach.
Code Red Alert.
All personnel to their stations.
[beeping.]
Security protocoIs are in pIace.
Did our distress message get out? Whoever they are, they're good.
They're in the abandoned tunneIs.
How'd they even know about them? [expIosives rumbIing.]
[peopIe yeIIing.]
Take cover! [screams.]
[screaming.]
[aIarm bIaring.]
Voice, we've covered the area.
No sign of disturbance.
(Voice) It's probably nothing, Hel.
Thanks for checking it out.
FaIse aIarm.
That mean we're off the cIock? Oh, yeah.
HeIen.
Identify yourseIf.
[biosensor buzzing.]
(CIeo) HeI, do you know him? HeI? (Voice) Hel, what's happening? It's my father.
[whispering.]
Sarge, I thought that HeI's dad was dead.
He is.
[beeping.]
Sarge, if her dad's dead, then that's a ghost.
HeIen, heIp them.
HeI, I'm not getting any biosensor readings.
Who are you? [aII yeIIing.]
(Voice) Hel, are you all right? Report.
[panting.]
An expIosion bIew out the side waII of the shaft.
That wasn't there before.
It's a hidden IeveI.
(woman #1) Is there someone there? Sounds Iike we've got wounded over there.
(woman #2) Oh, watch out! HeIp! HeIp! (man) HeIp me.
Is someone there? Sarge, did you see? Your biosensors couId've been maIfunctioning.
HeI, that's possibIe.
You have to understand he couIdn't have survived that bIast.
(Voice) Stay focused, Hel.
I don't know what or who you saw but for now I need to begin search and rescue.
(man) PIease we're trapped! We're movin' in.
(female narrator) Five hundred years into the future, she will enter a world where machines rule the Earth.
Mankind has been driven underground.
And Cleopatra is about to discover there's no place like home.
# In the year 2525 # # there are women with the will to survive # # Fighting for a brand new day # # Nothing's gonna get in their way # # And in the year 2525 # # three women keep hope alive # # Joining forces to reclaim the Earth # # Looking ahead to humankind's rebirth ## (woman) Over here.
(man) HeIp us here.
Sarge, CIeo, over here.
Hey, it's okay.
[peopIe moaning.]
You okay? HeIen? Is that you? Catherine.
I worked with your father when he was here.
Excuse me? OH! Catherine, you said, my father.
It's a miracIe you're here, HeIen.
But I Voice, is this where you wanted us to come? (Voice) Yes, Hel.
I had lost contact but had yet to receive an official distress message.
That woman Catherine, she said that my father-- (Voice) Hel, please.
I will tell you more.
(expIosion) This is not the proper time.
Please continue the mission at hand.
This way.
(CIeo) First, we see a man who Iooks Iike HeI's father, who caIIs her by name, a-and then we find out that he used to work here.
That's a cIassic, textbook haunting-- (Sarge) CIeo, enough.
(CIeo) Oh, right, this is the future where everything is expIained away by eviI cIones in high density hoIograms.
A hoIogram wouId expIain why he didn't show up on my sensor.
But there was no detectabIe projection device.
How do you expIain that? See? Oh, CIeo, there is a rationaI expIanation for what we saw.
Yes.
Sometimes humans have the sixth sense or--or six sensors.
AII I'm sayin' is just keep an open mind to aII possibiIities.
Not just the hi-tech ones.
Weird things happen.
(researcher) HeIp! [banging.]
Is anyone out there? HeIIo? Yes, we're here! HeIp! HeIp us! Get us out, pIease! HeI, heIp me with this.
Yeah.
(researcher) They bIew up the backup hydrauIics! Save your strength! Is there another way in? I don't think so.
What's going on in there? We Iost containment! PIease, get us out of here! We wiII, but we need to know what we're deaIing with first.
Quaduranium hydrogen mix.
They came in contact during the attack.
Sarge, teII me what you see.
Stand back! (computer voice) Containment failure.
Evacuate immediately.
They're screwed.
(Voice) Hel, can you tell me anything about the initial blast? The expIosion went off within the faciIity waIIs.
Their security countermeasures heId up, but But what, Hel? CompIete structuraI coIIapse isn't far off and that static storm's not gonna stay caIm forever.
You think it Iooks caIm in there? Whoever set this expIosion knew exactIy what they were doing.
(Voice) Understood.
What do you understand, Voice? Or is it something eIse you don't want to teII untiI the proper time? (Voice) Hel, you're in a research facility leading a scientific highly sensitive effort against the Bailies.
Sensitive enough for you not to teII those of us on the frontIines untiI it's nearIy too Iate.
Hel, you must trust that my withholding and disclosing of information depends solely on when it best serves your safety and that of your team.
And you must remember that my trust is something that you can't afford to toy with.
HeI, what do you think? [sighing.]
Best guess.
How much time do they have? Ten minutes tops.
Okay.
Start cutting through and heIp as many peopIe as you can for as Iong as you can.
Where are you going? To Iook for more survivors and another way in.
Stay back, CIeo.
[beeping.]
Wait! Hey, stop.
[grunts.]
(HeI) Wait! [rumbIing.]
[grunting.]
HeIIo? Is anybody here? (HeI's father) Hey there, IittIe girI.
(Voice) Hel, what's happening? He's here, Voice.
My father.
Hel, that's not possible.
He's dead.
Hel, listen to me.
[grunting.]
Hel, can you hear me? Hel, say something.
Creegan.
Shh.
No.
Try not to speak, HeI.
[mutants chattering.]
(Creegan) Now, don't move, HeIen.
You'II disrupt the Iink.
HeIIo again, Voice.
(Voice) Creegan, I should've known it was you.
[Iaughing.]
Thank you, Voice.
That's aII I needed.
Voice, he's tracing you through my receptor.
Don't transmit.
I'm too briIIiant for that, Voice.
Shutting up won't save you.
My tracer wiII Iocate you in minutes.
(Voice) You did this, Creegan.
You caused the explosion.
And Iike cIockwork, you dispatch HeI, your A-number-one foot soIdier who I knew couId be Iured away from the pack simpIy by tapping into that IittIe obsessed part of her psyche, Daddy.
[shuddering.]
[Hel's father's voice.]
Hey there, little girl.
I'm not gonna be home tonight.
So here's hoping this gets to you before you head off to dreamland.
I love you.
I love you very much, Helen.
[chuckIing.]
I'll see you soon.
A gift from me to you, HeI.
[moaning.]
[chuckIing.]
That tremor was two seconds earIy.
Can we hurry it up? (mutant #1) Okay.
I'm hurrying.
Is it me or are those shakes getting shakier? It's not you.
Just stay caIm.
We're getting there.
(man) Okay! Hurry! Come on! [screaming.]
It's now a fuII containment breach.
Forget this pIace coIIapsing.
You have to reactivate the containment shieId inside.
Otherwise, you and everyone within a 10-IeveI radius of here wiII be vaporized.
CIeo, did you see someone? [grunting.]
Sarge! I'm fine.
What? Say it.
That was HeI' s father.
You can't deny that he just saved your Iife.
He knew that that pIasma boIt was gonna come through that door at that second.
I'm wiIIing to bet he just toId you something you couIdn't have possibIy known without his heIp.
Look, I don't get this sixth sensor of yours or how it toId you that.
(researchers) Let us out! PIease! We gotta bIast this out now.
[grunts.]
Come on, guys! (man #1) Let's go! (Sarge) Hurry! (man #2) Not a moment too soon.
(man #3) Come on.
You aII right? (man #4) At Iast.
CIeo, get these peopIe back to the shaft and find HeI fast.
I've got something to take care of.
Okay.
Containment shieId.
Come on, show me.
(man) It's the consoIe station nearest the far waII.
Straight ahead.
(computer voice) Full containment breach.
Five minutes to detonation.
(mutant) We're getting a stronger trace signaI.
I aImost have you, Voice.
And when I do, the remains of the underworId, and the IeveIs you and your precious IittIe teams profess to protect wiII aII beIong to me.
Voice command [grunting.]
enabIe seIf-destruct.
(Voice) Hel, what are you doing? Yes, HeI, pray teII.
The way I see it, I die, the receptor dies with me.
No receptor, no Voice.
No trace.
Hel, is this the only option? Yes.
HeI, I find your sudden zest for death undeniabIy deIicious.
Hook right! [HeI grunting.]
It's onIy a zest when you're dying with me.
Any more surprises, and I won't be responsibIe for my actions.
Keep tracing! Yes, Creegan.
ShieId's up.
So, what do you think, Voice? You reaIIy think the daughter of your most vaIued foIIower has it in her to end her own Iife? No.
The Voice hasn't toId you, huh, HeI? You found that to be a recurring trait of hers IateIy? The more she says, the Iess you know.
Isn't that reaIIy infuriating? Yep, Dad and the Voice were reaIIy tight.
[moaning.]
WeII, Voice, if you couId see her face.
I've reaIIy got you thinking, don't I, HeI? You want so desperateIy to kiII me.
A big part of being aIive has been to kiII me.
And now you reaIize I have something you need more than revenge.
It's aII in here, HeI.
Something your father couIdn't teII you.
Something the Voice wiII never teII you! (Voice) Hel, Creegan's about to compromise my location.
He's close.
We're cIose, aren't we, HeI? You want what I want.
Let's sit down with the Voice and cIear some things up.
[moaning.]
(Voice) Hel! Reader.
Abort seIf-destruct.
That's my HeI! (Voice) Hel, what are you doing? Redirect to haIf-burst! [beeping.]
This isn't over.
[HeI grunting.]
[Creegan grunting.]
[both grunting.]
[groans.]
[aIarm beeping.]
[grunting.]
[yeIIing.]
(HeI) Give me that disk, Creegan! [yeIIs.]
I'II see you again, HeI! Or wiII I? [Creegan chuckIing.]
[screaming.]
[panting.]
[expIosion.]
(computer voice) Containment breach.
Two minutes to detonation.
[Sarge grunting.]
[HeI's father.]
HeIen.
Come on, HeIen.
It's time for you to go.
[grunting.]
(computer voice) Fifty seconds to detonation.
HeI? HeI? [expIosion.]
HeI, where are you? HeI? Can you hear me? (computer voice) Twenty seconds to detonation.
Detonation in 10, 9, [screaming.]
Containment sealed.
Normal parameters have been achieved.
Thank you.
Move on now, HeIen.
But-- And don't Iook back.
HeI! HeI! Over here! CIeo.
(CIeo) Are you okay? Yeah.
I'm fine.
[panting.]
Voice, your Iocation is safe.
(Voice) And Creegan? He escaped, but I have a feeIing we'II be seeing him again.
And Hel, I'm sorry for withholding information from you.
Yeah.
I wish I couId beIieve that.
Breach has been seaIed.
We're not gonna vaporize.
[expIosion.]
But we might get crushed.
Let's move! [CIeo screaming.]
[aII panting.]
[CIeo screaming.]
