Motorcity (2012) s01e15 Episode Script
Reunion
1x14 - Reunion Kane: I gotta tell you, folks, it's another great day here at beautiful Detroit Deluxe, where we have clean air, good food, safety and security.
The same can't be said for Motor City home of Mike Chilton and his band of low-lifes, enemies of peace and order, with a thuggish thirst for destruction and mayhem, constantly attacking our tranquil way of life.
[ static .]
Constantly attacking? Thirst for destruction? You sure you're not talking about yourself there, Abe? He's trying to wipe us out down there and take away your freedoms up here.
Which is why we hereby put Abraham Kane under citizen's arrest to answer for his crimes against us all! Arrest me?! In my own city? In my own war pod? You go too far, Chilton.
How's this for too far? What do you think you're doing, Chilton? I can't believe we got in! I got control of Kane's pod! Ho ho! We got him! We got him! Good job, buddy! No! No, no, no! [ alarm wailing .]
No! Nooo! Tooley! It wasn't me, Mr.
Kane! Honest! Oh, nice try, Chilton, but I'm not going down that easy.
[ beeping .]
Kane's initiated some sort of anti-hack-ram! - He's trying to escape! - You can take him.
I'm trying! The program is too good! He's breaking loose! So, you wanted to trap me, bring me down to your turf, huh? Well, let's see how you like it when the tables are turned! - Lower the buildings, Tooley! - Right! Um, oh which buildings? All of them! Kane: Activate enforcer drones! Heads up, Burners! [ Chuck whimpering, screaming .]
[ laserfire .]
[ engines revving .]
Did we break his city or something? He's docked the older buildings in their chargers! But why? He's sealing off Deluxe.
Man, we must have really ticked him off.
Told you this was a bad idea.
Debate later, drive now.
We gotta haul butt or we're gonna be trapped up here.
[ all shouting .]
We're not gonna make it! Just keep going! [ Chuck sobbing .]
- Dude, we're trapped in Deluxe! - Look at this this way We'll finally have a chance to take in the sights.
Mr.
Kane, looks like we've got half the Burners trapped in Deluxe.
Send out the bots to cover all other possible escape routes.
Hunt them down.
Playtime is over! Wait.
It was playtime and no one told me? We're too easy to spot in our rides.
Looks like the whole city is after us.
Let's ditch the fan club and get a little perspective.
I think it's time to test out the new wheels! [ beeping .]
- Hey, Jules.
So how's it goin'? - Oh, great.
Just sealed in down here, having a blast.
Any chance you can work up some of your magic and pop open one of these exits? Not without my magic Kaneco terminal.
So you're saying we're on our own? Let me see if I can come up with something else.
In the meantime, be careful up there.
- Aren't I always? - All: No.
Point taken.
- Ah, this hurts.
- I know, but striking our colors is the only way we're gonna blend in up here.
If no one takes too close a look.
Okay, Roth.
Think you can keep our ladies safe for a bit? And stay out of trouble.
[ Chuck whimpering .]
I did it! I didn't scream! Aaaaah! [ simpers .]
- Chuck? - [ shrieking .]
Oh, man! Dutch, you okay? Still got a few pals on my tail.
- Be right there.
- Better we stay separated.
All right, but things get rough, find a place to hide out.
We'll work on getting us out of here.
Till then, you keep your head down and stay safe.
Yeah, no sweat.
Well, maybe a little sweat! Hope I'm doing the right thing.
Just be cool and we'll be fine.
Act like you should be here.
It's all in the attitude.
Okay, right, attitude.
I can do this.
I can be cool.
Oh! Aw, come on! How am I supposed to be cool with those all over the city?! Dad? Uh, hi, mom.
Listen, I know I didn't leave on the best of terms, and I wanted to call, but I didn't want to cause any trouble for you and I didn't know how you felt about everything, or if you were mad Man, it's good to see you guys! Good to see you too, son.
- We were worried.
- Oh, Dutch! So where's Dar? Bet he's all tall as me now, probably won't even recognize him.
Well, he has gone through some changes.
Welcome home brother.
What the heck?! I look like a blob, like an angry blob! Hands up, Burners! You are under arrest! [ whimpering .]
It's over for you! You got nowhere left to hide.
[ laughing .]
Gotcha! Julie sent me.
- Hop in! - Not bad.
Had me goin' there for a second.
[ hyperventilating .]
Ah, is he okay? Ah, yeah.
He does this sometimes.
Hey, Dar! Missed you, bud! So what's with the junior cadet uniform? Some kind of joke? O-kay.
Hey, been a while since we did the old Gordy power punch.
Still remember? Hey, come on! Don't leave me hangin'! Like you left me? - It wasn't like that.
- Dar, that's not fair.
- It was a mistake coming back.
- No, Dutch.
- We're glad you came home.
- You know I had to leave here.
Had to go a place that was safe for me to do my thing without endangering you any of you.
We understood then, and we understand now.
You know we've got no love for Kane and what he's doing.
But we still believe in Deluxe.
For now, being a cadet keeps Dar off Kane's radar.
Unlike his older brother.
I get it.
In time, the people will realize the truth.
So will Dar.
Hmm.
[nervous chuckle.]
[ admiring whistle .]
Got a lot of extra space in here.
Ah! You're getting tire marks all over my floor! Just didn't feel right leaving 'em out there like that.
You understand.
I was just supposed to give you a ride.
A ride! Your pod won't get a scratch, all right? I'll treat it like it was Mutt.
Wait.
Doesn't Mutt get wrecked all the time? Well, yeah, but I mean, we always fix 'er up even better than before.
[ loud crashing .]
Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! Tex: Stand back, Nancy, and watch me blast this thing apart! Texas! Uh Texas? Not even a scratch! Kane must have upgraded the construction.
Hmm.
But I wonder if he upgraded.
.
Jules.
How are things looking down there? We can't hack our way in or blast our way in.
That sounds promising.
Anything we can do? Failsafes! I built failsafes into the Deluxe city plan! Come on, old man, just tell Texas what he has to blow up to save the world.
Hey, dig it.
There's a subterranean power hub located in Deluxe's foundations.
If you two could shut it down, that should set off the failsafes, releasing all the buildings all across Deluxe.
What do you say, guys? I say it's exploding time! Katoo boom! Then let's get a lock on Dutch and get the heck outta here! Tech: Sir, just wanted to, uh, remind you of the dangers of keeping the buildings docked in their chargers for extended periods.
Why are you talking to me? But the potential for system overload I'm aware of the risks! And the ends justify the means! I just need a little more time to snare those Burners! [ sighs .]
Now, Tooley escort our concerned staff member to the break room.
He's looking a little stressed.
Oh ho ho ho! The break room.
I get it! [ evil laughter .]
[ beep .]
[ alarm wailing .]
[ exhales .]
Whoa-ho! Redecorated our room a little, huh? It's my room now.
You left remember? [ sighs .]
Hey hey! One of our art jams! All you ever wanted to draw was bots bot and zombies.
- We all have to grow up sometime.
- Yeah.
Yeah, we do.
So, uh, you really like this guy? Kane's a great man.
Takes care of us.
Keeps Deluxe safe, protects us from the Burners.
Listen, Kane might act like a good guy, but he's not.
Oh, man, this is all my fault.
I'm sorry, Dar.
If I hadn't left, I could have kept you on the right path, looked out for you.
I am on the right path! It's you who's wrong about everything! Look, I know I've lost some time with you, but I'm not gonna lose you! - Dutch, I miss - Come on, Dutch, we gotta go.
Hey, who's this? [ loud crash .]
What was that?! [ crackling .]
Uh, something is definitely wrong out there.
What's happening? Looks like these buildings are overcharging! The power build-up has nowhere to go! Oh, man, we need to move, like now.
Get us out of here! Uh-oh! [ loud crackling .]
Security breach.
Defense mode activated.
Texas!!! No! Texas! - Ouch.
- Well, that's not supposed to be here.
- Jacob? - What can I say? It's been a long time.
Kane must have added it.
Uh, what should Texas do now? - I know you! - Did I come at a bad time? Whoa.
Kind of creepy in here.
Mike Chilton! Dar, wait.
You're a Burner?! Listen, I can explain.
[ radio beeps .]
This is junior cadet Gordy in Sector 12.
I found the Burners.
Dutch: I can't believe Dar will fall for Kane's side! Chuck, we gonna need a pick-up! No can do, bro.
The pod's controls are fried.
Power surges are wrecking everything! I mean, the entire Deluxe city grid is overloading! So what do we do? [ people screaming .]
[ static, crackling .]
[ explosions .]
Dutch! Dutch? Sir, we've captured one of the Burners.
- Only one? - Yes, sir.
We're still hunting down the others.
Should we lift the buildings? There seems to be some kind of electrical discharge.
- Not until we have all of the Burners! - But sir, it's damaging I need more time! Keep them docked! [ crackling, explosions .]
Mom! Dad! You gotta get out! We can't.
Doors won't open.
- The pod won't move.
- We're stuck in here! Sir, we have to stop this.
People are in danger.
- Lift the buildings.
- We have our orders.
The buildings stay where they are.
You can thank the Burners.
It was hard for me to accept the truth too.
What do you know, traitor? I know you feel angry.
Betrayed.
You thought you were trying to make things better, but you've realized that you're working for the bad guy.
Then you don't know anything.
I make one call, this all ends.
I know your brother, and I know that he believes in you to do the right thing.
Come on, buddy, enough sitting around.
We got a city to save.
Mike! How did you get through all the guards? Had a little help.
Come on, don't leave me hangin'.
Good to be on the same team again, little brother.
What did you guys do to Mutt? Hey, wait where's red-tail? Don't worry, she's in good hands.
We left her with Roth.
Hey, guys, looks like we've got some bots on our tail! All right, let's drive.
[ Chuck screaming .]
Mike, we got a problem.
Wait what's with your trajectory? Are you flying? Uh, yeah.
Yeah, I am.
Hooooold on! [ Chuck screaming .]
Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Huh, Mutt? Julie: We can't get to the hub.
It's protected by an impenetrable shield.
If we could only just open, like, a dimensional doorway, and get some aliens to help us, like Texas.
Now is not the time.
Don't pay attention to him.
- I can do it.
- What?! I'm a junior cadet, and I have access to the network.
It's low-level, but it should allow me to shut down the shields for a repair cycle.
And force 'em to reboot! That should give us a few seconds! Not as cool as my idea.
Allright, check it out.
Dar is gonna drop the shields, Julie and Tex will blast the power hub, and we'll make sure Deluxe is okay before making a run for M.
C.
Ready? Let's do it, Burners! - Gotta find an access terminal.
- You got it! Mike: We got your back! [ Chuck screaming .]
[ yelps .]
- Oh - Hmm.
Mike: Hang on! [ Chuck screaming .]
Security breach.
Releasing bots.
Julie: You take those two, I'll take these.
Texas will take 'em all! Texas!!! Watch out! - Done.
- Ha ha! Way to go, bro! The shields are down.
Go! Go! Ahh! My stronghorn cannon! It's up to you, Julie.
Don't miss, 'cause the whole city will explode and we'll all die.
Thanks, Texas.
Aaah! [ relieved sigh .]
No! No!!! [ Mike laughs .]
Yeah! Dar: Being a Burner is awesome! No way.
Unh-unh.
Time for you to go home, little brother.
- Home? - Think about it, Dar.
If you're not here, who's gonna watch out for mom and dad? Yeah, I guess.
But then how do we plan on covering for me and the folks? Remember how we used to play super-bot beat-down? Yeah.
You always let me win.
Not this time.
Dar: Oh Those Burners are animals.
Are you all right? You turned in a traitor and got beat up for it.
- You're a hero, son.
- Just doing my part, sir.
Kane: I know we went through a lot, Deluxe, but we did it together, and together we'll make those responsible the Burners pay for what they did to us! - Julie: Not bad! - See? Told you, your pod would be as good as new when we were done.
Yeah, that's 'cause it is new.
Kane had to replace all the damaged pods and repair all the buildings.
- So I was right.
- So, uh, hey, maybe I should, you know, come check out your new pod up close, test the stability sensors.
Nah.
Stability sensors are fine.
Well, at least we hugged.
- No, we didn't.
- Yeah, we did.
I want to thank you for what you did for Dar up there.
- You opened his eyes.
- I should be thanking him.
And it was his big brother who opened his eyes, not me.
If you two chicks are done holding hands and whatnot, how about you help me with the new and improved stronghorn cannon? I made it even more powerful! Boom!
