Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008) s01e22 Episode Script
The Last Bat on Earth!
Only the great Mr.
Miracle could get me into a mess like this.
There's no sense arguing about it now.
Let's just focus on-- Darts.
How's Big Barda? We're trying to live the quiet life, but you know Barda.
-She can't stay away from the action.
-Blade.
You ever thought about settling down, Bats? I'm not the marrying kind.
-Hammers.
-Got it.
This is a pretty good deathtrap.
I've been in better, though the track is a nice touch.
Let's hear it for Mr.
Miracle, master of escapology.
And Batman, the world's greatest detective.
And thanks to your generous donations we've raised over a million dollars for the city's orphan fund tonight.
[CROWD CHEERING.]
BOY: Batman! Please, please, please! Can you sign my autograph? Please? Pretty good tandem escape, eh, honey? You know what would be a real miracle? If you'd finally clean out the garage.
Guess there's one trap you can't escape from.
[KIDS CLAMORING.]
[RUMBLING.]
Hah! I don't know which side I hate more, since they both keep humans as slaves.
If Prince Tuftan wasn't my friend, Dr.
Canus I'd say let them wipe each other out.
Anger runs deep between them, Kamandi.
They've been in conflict ever since the great disaster.
At least this meaningless war will distract them long enough for us to free the slaves.
Foolish ape, your kind is little better than human.
You will pay for that insult.
l will wear your pelt as a trophy.
Charge! [SOLDIERS YELLING.]
Battle formation.
Make me proud, son.
[SOLDIERS GRUNTING.]
Tuftan's in trouble.
Kamandi, no! You'll jeopardize our mission.
[GROANS.]
Get away from him, you big ape.
[ALL GRUNTING.]
Tuftan.
Tuftan! [GROWLS.]
Come on.
This is no place for us.
[HORSE NEIGHS.]
Tuftan, no! [BOTH GRUNT.]
Reinforce the right flank.
[GASPS.]
No! I did not order a retreat.
Cowards! [ALL SHOUTING.]
Congratulations, great Caesar.
Once again you've routed the ape filth and won the day.
But I fear I've lost my son.
No matter.
He's shown where his loyalties lie.
RAMJAM: You're all cowards.
The Tiger Empire would be broken by now if I had an army of true warriors instead of you worthless-- MALE VOICE: No! You are the reason for our defeat today.
You are a disgrace to all ape-kind, general.
[SCOFFS.]
Who are you? Who dares speak to me this way? l do.
Gorilla Grodd.
BATMAN: Professor Nichols? [MUFFLED GRUNTING.]
l didn't want to do it.
He forced me to.
BATMAN: Grodd.
I've been tracking him since his escape and the trail ends here.
That frightful beast burst into my lab.
He knew about my temporal experiments and used my time ray to send himself into the future.
Then I need you to send me after him.
This beacon will allow the time ray to find you in the time-stream and return you to the present.
In other words, ''Don't lose it.
'' Good luck, Batman.
Grodd.
Ha.
Your name means nothing to me.
Soldiers, teach this fool some respect.
[SOLDIERS YELL.]
Such technology.
I challenge you for command of this army, general.
No weapons.
The challenge is a test of strength.
As it should be.
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
[ALL YELLING.]
[GROWLS.]
You are beaten.
We will follow you, General Grodd.
[SOLDIERS GRUNTING.]
Under my leadership we will show the world the true meaning of gorilla warfare.
[SOLDIERS GRUNTING.]
LEADER: These wild humans will make poor slaves.
There's barely any meat on their bones.
[YELLING.]
ItÂ’s that human-loving deserter and his pet.
Get them! [ALL GRUNTING.]
Run.
You're free.
Doggie.
Get away from my stock, you mutt.
Stop him! [GROWLS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Batman! Looks like you could use a hand.
Good to see you again.
But why would you ever wanna come back here? BATMAN: One of the most diabolical villains of 21st century is loose in your time.
As if we don't have enough to worry about.
LEADER: Cease! Surrender or the slaves and your human-loving friends die.
[WHIMPERING.]
Great Caesar will pay a handsome price for you.
[LAUGHS.]
You've caused me a lot of trouble, Kamandi.
This is the end for you.
And you, my son I can understand such treachery in them but not from my own blood.
It is not treachery to fight for the rights of all species, father.
Human-lover! You are a traitor not only to your species but to your own family.
Perhaps you'll see the error of your ways after a few years in the dungeon.
The rest of you are to be executed.
Your people are in danger, Great Caesar.
Let me help you.
It speaks, but makes no sense.
How can a lowly human be of service to the Tiger Empire? A criminal madman from my era, Gorilla Grodd has come to your world.
Gorilla? Ha.
We have nothing to fear from the gorillas.
[GORILLAS CHANTING.]
What is that? Grodd.
[GORILLAS CHANTING.]
Tiger-men! Your day is done.
This is the dawn of a new age! The age of the ape! [SOLDIERS GRUNTING.]
You must be Grodd.
The apes may have a new leader but to great Caesar, you're still just a dirty monkey.
Monkey? [ALL YELLING.]
Fire the sonic cannons! [ALL SCREECHING.]
Oh! Cats have such sensitive ears.
Tiny! Smash the gate! [ALL CHANTING.]
[ROARS.]
[ROARS.]
Into the city.
The only good tiger is a dead tiger! They're inside the gates.
[GRUNTING.]
Follow me.
I know the back alleys of this city like I know my own stripes.
[SNIFFS.]
Batman? Here? [GROWLS.]
Get him! [SOLDIERS YELLING.]
We're outnumbered.
Quick, this way.
[ALL YELLING.]
This pipe empties on the far side of the city.
They'll never see us.
I understand the need to retreat, Batman, but what now? With all his technological might, how can we defeat Grodd? You and Kamandi, come with me.
Tuftan, I have a special mission for you.
The mighty have fallen, Great Caesar.
[GROANING.]
[ALL CHEERING.]
We should be fighting, not running.
Where are we? BATMAN: Home.
What a dump.
A magnificent archeological find, Batman.
[SNARLING.]
Who dares enter the Batcave? You mock us with your costume, human.
You are no man-bat.
Kill the trespassers! [GROWLING.]
[GROWLING.]
I just came back for some of my stuff.
Marvelous.
Just marvelous.
I will feast on your blood and suck the marrow from your bones.
You're going hungry tonight.
Get out of my cave.
[SCREECHING.]
Now tell us, Batman, why you have brought us here.
Grodd's using technology from the past to conquer your world we're going to level the playing field.
No further, Grodd.
Your conquest of our world ends here and now.
Tuftan? Uhn! You amuse me, tiger cub.
But your collection of rabble is no match for my mighty army.
[SOLDIERS YELLING.]
We do not fear chimpanzees.
Chimpanzees? [SOLDIERS YELLING.]
Sonic cannons! [ALL GROANING.]
Charge! Batman? To fly through the air like an eagle? Yours was an age of wonders, Batman.
-I'm going to be sick.
-Hang on.
[ALL WHIMPERING.]
[YELLS.]
What are you doing? Charge! Charge! [ALL YELLING.]
This might be a bad time to ask but how do we land this aerial conveyance? We don't.
[ALL WHIMPERING.]
That should even the odds.
Now let's show them what humans can do.
You fight as one of us, you fly as one of us.
We are with you, Batman.
[ALL GRUNTING.]
[YELLING.]
Tiny, finish them! [GROWLS.]
-Can you handle this? -Depends.
Got any rope in that belt? You have most unusual friends, Kamandi.
Aah! Following me through time, Batman? I'm beginning to think you have an unhealthy obsession with me.
My obsession is with justice, Grodd.
Come and get some.
[GRUNTS.]
Did you say you had a plan to deal with this monster? More of an idea than a plan.
Aah! Plan, idea.
Do something! [GROWLS.]
[BOTH GRUNT.]
[GROWLING.]
[SOLDIERS YELLING.]
No, you fools! I didn't order a retreat.
Come back! Aah! [ALL CHEERING.]
I owe you my thanks, humans.
Perhaps there is more to your species than meets the eye.
And you, my son, I owe an apology.
You are no traitor to your people only to our intolerant views towards humans.
Free the slaves.
Farewell, old man.
Though I treasure our friendship, I hope you won't have to return here.
Who knows, kid, maybe next time you'll be visiting me.
Really? Do you mean--? Kamandi.
Down, boy.
Down.
Aw, nuts.
Miracle could get me into a mess like this.
There's no sense arguing about it now.
Let's just focus on-- Darts.
