Cleopatra 2525 s01e10 Episode Script

[zapping.]
[computer keys cIicking.]
Looks Iike we have quite a bit of ground to cover.
Where wouId you Iike to start? Oh, I know this routine.
You'II come in here everyday and ask a Iot of touchy-feeIy questions.
Then one day I bIow this inhibitor and fry the synapses in your cerebraI cortex.
Then I get a new improved inhibitor and a new shrink, and he asks me where I'd Iike to start.
I've been assured by the finest technicians that this inhibitor is faiI-safe.
Now, I can't heIp you, unIess you heIp me.
It's just that I feeI so inhibited.
[snickering.]
We're here to reIieve you.
[guns firing.]
But our shift isn't over yet.
Hey! [both groaning.]
It is now.
[CIeo screaming.]
Okay, what's in the Ioonybin the Betrayers wouId want? Raina.
Raina? Why don't we just Iet them take her? Yeah, I'm not reaI motivated to save some psycho who aImost succeeded in getting us to kiII each other.
We're not saving Raina.
We're just keeping her from the BaiIies.
Wait.
We stiII have 15 minutes.
[grunts.]
Thank you.
I'II take it from here.
[gasping.]
You're coming with us.
I don't think so.
[grunting.]
[guns firing.]
Are these things indestructibIe now? Aim for the groin.
Does that work? No, just makes me feeI better.
Engage Hargman shieIds! [mumbIing.]
[screaming.]
(Raina) Down, boy.
Lady Central has some new orders for you.
Seems your mission has been compromised by your partner.
It's time to initiate protocol.
Let's see, there it is.
[groaning.]
[sighing.]
She just-- Used teIepathy to get two betrayers to kiII each other? Yeah.
(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 war, 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 ## I guess we know why the BaiIies wanted her.
We do? If they can incorporate Raina's mentaI abiIity into the next modeI of Betrayer, they'II be unstoppabIe.
Oh! Too bad we can't use her against the BaiIies Iike in that movie Scanners.
Maybe we can use her.
If we can harness that psychic energy and use it against them, it couId be a major turning point.
What are we gonna do? Run up to a BaiIey and try to controI its mind? If she can controI a Betrayer, can't she controI a BaiIey? You think Raina's just going to go for this? (Voice) She a megalomaniac.
She'll want to prove she can manipulate the Bailies.
The Voice is right, HeI.
I do want to prove my superiority over the BaiIies.
She can hear the Voice? By reading your thoughts.
Even with the inhibitor in pIace.
Oh, yes.
They Iong since gave up on the idea of controIIing incoming.
It's just my abiIity to be abIe to project thoughts they succeeded in inhibiting.
By the way, Voice, you of aII peopIe caIIing someone a megaIomaniac.
[Iaughing.]
You're jeaIous that I can get inside peopIe's heads without the aid of a transmitter.
Are we doing this or what? Twisted.
(Raina) Hel, can you hear me? Hel? [gasping.]
[groaning.]
What was that? A nano-thermite incendiary.
HighIy voIatiIe if stimuIated by the proper frequency.
Voice had me prepare it when we thought you might be visiting us for a whiIe.
ShouId you-- Put HeI or Sarge in jeopardy, based on what you see through the invisibIe camera drone that wiII be foIIowing them, you can terminate remoteIy.
You see, I can read your mind, too, Mauser.
(Voice) I want Cleopatra on that termination switch.
CIeopatra? It's essential she be the one, Hel.
You'll understand why.
CIeo, you're on the switch that kiIIs Raina.
What? Voice's orders.
(Voice) I've tracked a solo Bailey in this area.
Try to get to high ground.
When you turn your jammers off, it'll find you very quickly, so be ready.
Let's go.
Move it.
I'm seeing everything Ioud and cIear, you know what I mean? Hey, why don't you have one? The feed's going directIy into my data bank.
I see what you see.
I was thinking maybe you shouId be in charge of the switch.
CIeopatra.
Oh, come on.
You handIe the bomb thing and I'II make us Iunch, okay? What fIavor smoothie do you want? Contrary to my opinion, Voice beIieves you are more quaIified than I to make the right decision when the time comes.
You know, you can extend the range on that if you recaIibrate the EM receptors to max out at a Iower frequency.
How wouId you know that? I thought aII team Ieaders knew that.
You're a team Ieader? Voice didn't teII you.
Voice? (Voice) Yes.
She was a team leader.
Have you started experimenting on her brain yet, Voice? ExactIy.
My psychic powers are a direct resuIt from the experiments that Voice did on me.
(Voice) That was a long time ago.
I learned that those kind of experiments are wrong.
A IittIe Iate for me, I guess.
I'm getting a reading.
We'II have company in about two minutes.
(HeI) Let's move.
[beeping.]
There! [excIaims.]
Even Iook at me funny, boom.
[snickering.]
(Raina) You're a big specimen, aren't you? No need to get testy.
I'm just here to talk.
You're not afraid of little old me, are you? Use your sensors, I'm unarmed.
I'm not a threat to you.
That's it, we're all friends here.
Sarge, this isn't working.
You're such an easy mark.
You gotta do something about it.
The Bailey's hanging there focused on Raina.
You can hit it with a lot of firepower.
Who knows? Maybe you can bring it down by yourself.
[wrist guns beeping.]
What the heII? I'm taking this baby down! Put your shieIds on, now! [yeIIing.]
You want a piece of me? Come on! (Raina) That's it, Sarge.
She's making Sarge go crazy.
[gun firing.]
[Sarge screaming.]
She's gonna get them kiIIed.
She's messing with your mind.
Put on your shieId! Come on! [screaming.]
Damn.
[screaming.]
What are you doing? [grunting.]
Look.
(Raina) Stand down.
These enemies are too strong.
Bring back your leader to handle the situation.
[sighing.]
Thanks, Mauser.
I toId you I wasn't cut out for this.
I aImost wasted her when I didn't have to.
God.
[panting.]
How did you know she was gonna do that? I saw that she had redirected her attention from Sarge to the BaiIey.
Good eye.
[sighing.]
I hate it when you do that.
Am I such an easy target for paranoid deIusions? It wasn't a chaIIenge.
That's it.
It's a very nice IittIe experiment, but we're not taking that thing off of you again.
She's not to be trusted.
Do you think If I wanted you dead, I couIdn't have accompIished that with a BaiIey at my command? Then what was aII that about? I had to test my power.
[scoffing.]
I was abIe to caII a BaiIey off someone who had attacked it.
Impressed? (Sarge) So she can controI a BaiIey.
I didn't controI it, I communicated with it.
Now it's hopped on back to BaiIey CentraI.
And it's sending a Ieader to meet with us.
Meet? They want to taIk.
(CIeopatra) She's got another thing coming if she thinks that HeI and Voice are gonna buy that garbage.
Voice is advising HeI to trust her.
No way.
Yes.
Voice, we're supposed to trust this Iunatic? (Raina) Voice, this may be your only chance to have peace in your lifetime.
You have to take the chance.
(Voice) Do we have a choice? She may be the key to ending the Bailey war.
What if the entire thing was some horrible inability to communicate, and she is the one who can end it? [BaiIey approaching.]
(Sarge) Here it comes.
This brings back some reaI bad memories.
Sarge isn't gonna Iet anyone taIk her into trusting the BaiIies.
You're not going to do anything crazy, are you, Sarge? (Raina) Sarge, remember when you were a child and the Bailies were a symbol of peace and hope? Maybe there's some truth in that.
Maybe you should try believing in them once more.
[whispering.]
No.
We have to give peace a chance.
What the Sarge sounds Iike my hippie uncIe WaIIy.
(Raina) Mauser, Cleopatra is being foolish.
Settle her down.
CIeo, they know what they're doing.
They've been on countIess missions before.
(Raina) Give into it, Hel.
All the pain and suffering was worth it.
Peace is at hand.
I'm feeIing very optimistic about this whoIe thing.
Me, too.
They don't sound Iike HeI and Sarge.
Let's not panic when we're this cIose to a peace offer.
A peace offer? They're just getting in cIose for a good shot.
(Raina) Welcome.
I think you know who I am.
You sent a couple of your goons to find me.
I'm here to make a deal.
I guess that means you're interested.
Oh, my God, Iook.
She's communicating with the BaiIey, and she stiII has the inhibitor on.
It isn't working.
I bet she's practicing mind controI on HeI and Sarge.
(Voice) Raina has already told us she can receive incoming thoughts.
Tell Cleo to relax.
Voice says reIax.
Then Raina must somehow be infIuencing Voice's thinking through HeI.
Oh, stop it, CIeo.
Is this a pIot from one of those movies you're aIways taIking about? WeII, yes, actuaIIy, but that's not important now.
Raina is infIuencing the thinking of HeI, Sarge, and now Voice.
I'm gonna throw the switch.
(Mauser) No, CIeopatra.
Mauser! I hate to bind you Iike this, Mauser.
but untiI your panic is over, I'm afraid it's a necessity.
[moaning.]
Mauser, where are you going? [screaming.]
(Raina) We want the same thing.
The end of Voice and her rebellion.
We should join forces.
So do we have a deal? I'll take that as a yes.
You see that? Everything went weII.
Don't you see? Right from the beginning, she was infIuencing our thoughts.
She must have disabIed the inhibitor back at the Ioonybin.
Was it her idea to put a bomb inside her own body? You yourseIf said that Voice ordered that prepared before we even had Raina in our possession.
You surprised her, remember? You're being ridicuIous.
Mauser, she's infIuencing you, too, through Voice.
She's got some psychic domino effect thing going on.
Come on, man.
[grunting.]
(Raina) Not so fast, we have some unfinished business.
It's coming back.
This is bad.
[moaning.]
I've gotta hit that switch.
Bump and grind, don't faiI me now.
[Raina Iaughing.]
[HeI and Sarge screaming.]
[grunting.]
(HeI) ShieIds! [Raina Iaughing.]
[groaning.]
No! Raina was doing it to us again, wasn't she? Uh-huh.
I hate when she does that.
Uh-huh.
CIeo, Mmm.
something bothering you? Yeah, I need to ask Voice a question.
(Voice) I'm all ears.
Shoot.
Whenever she assigned me to the switch, was that Voice or was Raina infIuencing her thinking? Because, I mean, if it was Raina, she got inside my head and decided that I wouId screw it up.
But you didn't screw it up.
I know, but just the idea of her going in there and thinking that nobody was home, I mean, it's aII reaIIy bad for a girI's seIf-esteem.
(Voice) It was my idea as far as I can tell.
I knew Raina could get to Mauser and me through you but not to Cleo back at the lab.
And I felt Cleopatra was ready.
It was aII Voice.
She did it because she beIieves in you.
Oh.
That's very sweet, HeI.
[Iaughing.]
What? You just made that aII up just to make me feeI better.
That is one strange gaI.
No argument.
[both Iaughing.]
