Thunderbirds Are Go! (2015) s01e25 Episode Script

Undercover

(MOBILE RINGS) Si, padrone.
Is Banino.
I am at the meeting place.
Your Mr Mendocia is not.
Far too risky.
The sale is off.
(APPROACHING VEHICLE) Wait.
He's here.
You're late.
(COCKNEY ACCENT) Sorry, mate.
We had to make sure the coast was clear, didn't we? (MOCK SOUTH AMERICAN ACCENT) My friend.
Did you bring the merchandise? Si.
Did you bring the payment? But of course.
Now, let us make a deal.
(CAR DOOR CLOSES) Si.
He bought it.
We're in.
Copy that, Lady Penelope.
- Capture Squad, are you in position? - Affirmative, Colonel Casey.
Ready to go at your signal.
F-A-B.
Five Four Three Two One.
Thunderbirds Are Go! Thanks for lending us your London agent, Scott.
An undercover sting operation as delicate as this couldn't be performed through normal Global Defence Force channels.
I must say, I was quite surprised you agreed to it.
You and me both, Colonel.
International Rescue isn't usually in the bad guy business.
But, once Parker heard there was a role in it for him, I couldn't stop him.
Let's just call this an experiment.
And experiments always make me nervous.
Everything's under control, Scott.
This operation will run like clockwork, I guarantee it.
Thanks, Colonel.
(ELECTRONIC BEEP) Kayo, I can't take all this waiting around.
Anything to report? Relax, Scott.
I've got one eye on our guys and the other on the GDF.
Spying on this operation without the GDF's knowledge feels - Not so great.
- Covert ops is my job, and I can do it a lot better without having to ask the GDF for permission.
Trust me, I won't let Lady P and Parker out of my sight.
Forgive me, Mr Mendocia, but I do not usually sell to people I don't know.
Very wise, my friend.
But gold-pressed Lidium is, how they say, very persuasive.
Ah! Perbacco.
Is a beautiful, no? I remember when I was a young child, on the streets of Sao Paulo, my poor grandmother would say to me, "Paco, my darling boy, come closer.
" "I want to tell you something" (CLEARS THROAT) Guv, shouldn't we take a butchers at the merchandise? The merchandise? Oh, yes, the merchandise, of course.
No.
- SCOTT: Kayo, what's happening? - Hold on, Scott.
- 'Kayo!' - Hold on.
This box contains the latest discovery, stolen from the labs of Houseman Industries.
A repulsor magnet ray, rated at 6.
7 teslas.
Ahhh It could rip the walls off this hangar.
(CHUCKLES) Not to mention that gold tooth from your mouth.
It's the real deal, all right, guv.
GDF COMMANDER: Package is confirmed.
It's the stolen repulsor, Colonel.
Hold position until the deal has gone through completely.
I want that magnet in our hands first.
No-one is to move until I initiate the "go" command.
- Got that? - Copy.
On your mark.
Teabreak time! Gladys and I would just like to thank you for the new assignment, Colonel Casey.
GDF refreshment technicians, 2nd Class.
It's perfect.
Quiet, safe, and not an asteroid or sea trench in sight.
Battenberg cake? - Can't you see I'm busy, soldier? - Say no more.
I'll just put it here in case you get peckish later.
(BUZZING) (ALARMS BLARE) Go, go, go! Too soon.
- We have a deal? - Si.
Un accordo.
(CLATTERING) It's a set-up! (DEVICE WHINES) (METALLIC CLATTERING AND POPPING) The operation's blown.
I'm going in.
SCOTT: Kato, wait.
This is the GDF's responsibility.
Kayo! Ohh! I should never have agreed to this.
(WHINING) Aaargh! (GROANS) I show you what we do to traditori, Mr Mendocia.
(SCREECH OF TYRES) (SCREECH OF TYRES) (DEVICE WHINES) (ENGINE REVS) (CLATTERING) (WHINING) What's going on? I can't hold it! Stop him! He's pulling me down! Engaging autopilot! (PILOT WHIMPERS) (PILOT CRIES OUT) (WHINING SUBSIDES) Consider this a no sale! But I'll still be taking the Lidium! (DEVICE WHINES) (PARKER GROANS) Parker! Who-o-oa! M'ladyyyyyy! (WHINING CONTINUES) SCOTT: Kayo, I'm heading over in Thunderbird 1.
Stay put, Scott.
Thunderbird Shadow's got this.
(TYRES SCREECH) You're mine now.
Capture Squad? Sit rep now! What's going on down there? Sorry, Colonel, the target has escaped with the repulsor.
And the Lidium.
And our undercover operatives.
Why aren't you in pursuit? Uh well Because he took our flyer, too.
(GROANS) Anything I can do to help? (LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) OK, Capture Squad.
I'm sending reinforcements.
Lady Penelope, GDF reinforcements are on the way.
I can't wait! That's my driver up there, Commander.
And a good driver is frightfully hard to replace.
(STARTS ENGINE) (TYRES SCREECH) Hey! (DEVICE WHINES) Steady hon.
Padrone.
This is a disaster.
The sale was a set-up by the GDF.
Not just the GDF, but my friends to boot.
And that's way worse for you, mate.
Really? Why? (WHINING INTENSIFIES) Cos they never give hup.
(BLEEPING) Calling GDF Flyer.
Your joyride is over.
I'm ordering you to land immediately.
Understand? Yes, I understand.
KAYO: Whoa.
This guy's desperate.
Face it.
She's faster and more hagile than you.
You have a point.
But this is a military vehicle, and that means military hardware.
Ah! Perfetto.
(ALARM BLEEPING) Air mines! They're locked onto my infrared signature.
(GROANS) SCOTT: Picking up your alarm.
Kayo, what's happening? KAYO: Nothing I can't handle.
(BOOM OF EXPLOSION) (GROANS) SCOTT: Thunderbirds are rescue vehicles.
They're not meant for aerial dogfights.
Well, sometimes rescuing people requires a little dogfighting.
OK, that's it.
I've kept out as long as I can.
Kayo, I'm on my way.
I thought International Rescue stayed away from these types of situations? When family's involved, I make an exception.
Five, four, three, two, one.
Time to take the money and run.
Slight problem there.
We left the key back at the car.
That's no problem, when you have an industrial magnet.
(WHINING) Wait, hold on a sec.
That's my tea-pouring harm.
Oh, I'm OK.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Whoa! Don't be too grateful.
(SMASHING) (ELECTRICAL ZAPPING, ALARMS BLARE) Goodbye, Mr Mendocia.
Who? Oh! Right.
Me.
(BEEPING) Runaway Flyer calling Fab 1.
- Come in.
- Parker, where are you? Doesn't look good to be seen driving one's own car, you know? Sorry, your Ladyship, but I've run into a spot of bother.
Mr Banino has stepped hout for the moment (ELECTRICAL FIZZING) Hand this flyer's seriously hon the blink.
Hm.
There's a factory up ahead.
It's the least-populated area for miles.
I'll meet you there.
Put her down as gently as you can.
- And, Parker? - Yes, m'lady? Do be careful.
KAYO: Thunderbird Shadow reporting in.
Scott, that creep Banino has bailed out.
I know our mission is rescue only, but if I don't stop him now, we'll all be cleaning up his mess tomorrow.
(SIGHS) Fine.
Lady Penelope and I will take care of Parker.
You go after Banino.
Does this mean International Rescue is finally in the bad-guy-catching business? - SCOTT: Don't get used to it.
- KAYO: F-A-B.
(TYRES SCREECH) (STRAINS) Left hand down a bit.
Gently does it.
Ohhh! (THUD) (WHINE OF ENGINES) (METAL CREAKING) Oh, no! (ALARM KLAXON BLARES) (CRASHING) Oh, dear.
Fab 1 to International Rescue.
Scott, we have a situation.
This is Thunderbird 1.
I'm 30 seconds out.
What's the situation on the ground? Rather distressing news.
The entire structure is collapsing in on itself.
I'm picking up life signs.
People are still inside! (GRUNTS) Oh! We have to get that worker out.
Your Ladyship, hare you there? Parker, you survived! Well done.
Now, can you hang on until Scott arrives with Thunderbird 1? I can hang on, m'lady.
(GROANS) Ooooh! But I'm not sure for how long.
Stay right there, Parker.
I'm on my way.
I'm on Banino's trail.
Don't worry.
He won't get far.
Remember, Kayo, saving lives is still more important than catching criminals.
That includes your own.
If it's too risky, let him go.
Is that clear? Crystal.
(GRUNTS) Hmm.
Parker? - Parker? Are you here? - Yes, m'lady.
Oh, Parker, you do make things difficult sometimes.
(SIGHS) Really, Parker The things I do for you.
(WHIMPERS) Whoa! That was way too close.
Hi.
Don't worry.
I'm gonna get you out.
Ohh! My, my, Parker, you have got yourself in a mess.
Yes, m'lady.
(STRAINS) (MAN CRIES OUT) LADY PENELOPE: Ohhh! - Thank you, m'lady.
- You're welcome.
Now let's get out of here.
I have escaped with the gold-pressed Lidium and the device.
- That's quite the deal, no? - We haven't finished negotiating yet.
(GROANS) Um p-per favore, please, um no violence.
I'm a businessman.
Perhaps we can make a deal? - Hmm.
Make me an offer.
- Here.
Take it.
And the repulsor.
(SIGHS) Si.
OK.
Take that, too.
The repulsor! Where is it? Parker, look out! Oooh! (DEVICE WHINES) Parker, where did you get that? I acquired it from Mr Banino without his knowledge.
I halways say, hugs are the answer to all of life's problems.
- Old habits die hard.
- Yes, m'lady.
Looks like you're all out of bargaining chips.
Perhaps I have one more thing to offer you.
(GASPS) No! I have made my reputation by keeping secrets.
And that includes your uncle Ms Kyrano.
Lady Penelope, you've gotta get out now! We'll be right with you.
(DEVICE WHINES) KAYO: Bad news, Scott.
Banino got away.
We got Parker and the worker out.
That's the important thing.
Today was a win for International Rescue.
And we got the repulsor back, which makes it a win for the GDF, too, right, Colonel? Looks like it's a win all round.
How about a lovely cup of tea to celebrate? Technician, perhaps your unique skills could be put to use at our Arctic facility.
Sounds a bit remote.
Mm-hm.
Then again, nothing could possibly go wrong there.
I'll do it! Scott, as soon as everyone's together, there's something I need to tell you all.
Something I should have said long ago.
- Where to, m'lady? - Home, please, Parker.
Parker, are you forgetting something? - Much better.
- Yes, m'lady
