Cleopatra 2525 s02e08 Episode Script
Juggernaut Down
Okay, guys, it works.
The principIe is a variation of the BaiIey's own grappIe technoIogy.
(HeI) I just wanna make sure it's gonna hoId up during combat conditions.
Let's face it, Mauser, you don't exactIy have 100% success rate with your gizmos.
Uh, guys, I-- I'm stiII fIoating here.
Remember the cIoaking generators? Oh, and the seIf-repIicating body armor that wouIdn't stop repIicating? The steaIth shoes.
Do you remember the sonic gastro-disrupter? [both Iaughing.]
I'm reaIIy starting to feeI kind of woozy.
(Mauser) I do the best I can.
Every new weapon needs fieId testing.
Yeah, on us.
Is this beam harmfuI? And if we do manage to snare a BaiIey, it's not gonna be too happy.
That beam better hoId.
WeII, it's managed to keep her up there.
Is that a fat joke? [girIs Iaughing.]
(CIeo) Mauser, Iet me down, pIease.
Thank you.
So, how are we going to Iure a BaiIey into our web? (Voice) Hel, this is not a joke.
With this device, we can trap a Bailey, and Cleopatra is the key.
Ooh! [eIectric buzzing.]
[beeping.]
HeI, now! [beeps.]
CIeo, get out of there! Okay! Take him down, Sarge.
Triggering impuIse.
Damn it, Mauser! It made us! FaII back! [both grunting.]
[beeping.]
But the pod CIeo! Got you! [both grunting.]
Get in the shaft, now! [panting.]
[chuckIing.]
Are you okay? Yeah.
You wanna teII us what the heII that was aII about? I thought we didn't Ieave team members behind.
That is not a team member.
Look, CIeo, I know you have some kind of empathic Iink with that thing, but it's a piece of BaiIey technoIogy, and it's dangerous.
Being on a Voice team is dangerous.
Just because I can't do any of those fIips or kicks and stuff, doesn't mean that it's fair that you get to take aII the risks.
(Voice) She's right, you know, Hel.
CIeo, you do take risks.
You sat out there as BaiIey bait and you didn't even fIinch.
The issue is knowing when to cut your Iosses and run.
WeII, how am I supposed to know that? [crashing.]
(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 is 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 ## Uh, guys, I thought the BaiIies didn't come down the shafts.
They don't.
You wanna teII it that? [aII screaming.]
It wants that Pod worse than we thought! You're right! I shouId have Ieft it on the surface! [beeping.]
HeI! Hit it! [screaming.]
I guess that's why the BaiIies don't come down here.
Voice, what the heII just happened? Why didn't you teII us about those guns? (Voice) Hel, I have no record of weapons of that sort found in any shaft.
Somebody put them down here.
I can only assume they were created by the Shaft Builders as an automated Bailey defense.
Voice thinks the Shaft BuiIders put them here.
The Shaft BuiIders? Hmm.
Who are they? Good question.
After the BaiIies came and aII the chaos, records were destroyed and Iost.
After a whiIe, no one couId remember who buiIt the shafts.
The BuiIders became kind of a myth.
WeII, whoever they were, they sure knew how to make firearms.
(Sarge) It didn't work out quite the way we pIanned, but we've got a BaiIey down.
I say we crack it open and Iook inside.
We don't even know how far it went down.
Maybe aII the way.
There's one way to find out.
[aII grunt.]
Looks pretty dead.
Let's go.
Whoa.
That didn't take Iong.
It must have sent out a mayday on its way down.
(Sarge) Then there'II be more on the way.
The cIock's running, HeI.
We can handIe one Betrayer, but how do we get inside? WeII, I know one person who's been inside a BaiIey.
I was sucked up into its tractor beam.
I don't know where the front door is.
You aImost got yourseIf kiIIed saving that BaiIey Power Pod.
Why don't you use it to get us inside? Ready? (HeI) Now! [both grunting.]
Pod, don't faiI me now.
Sarge, take cover! [grunts.]
CIeo, we've got company! [excIaims.]
There's gotta be a pIace to change the oiI or something.
Uh-oh! Guys! Sarge, now! I never thought my contribution to the team wouId be as a BaiIey proctoIogist.
Get inside! Hurry! [screaming.]
Go! [HeI grunts.]
Sarge, seaI the door.
That's not gonna hoId for Iong.
[pounding.]
(Sarge) Anyone eIse here thinking this wasn't such a great idea? I figure we can find the nerve center, power up the weapons and take out those Betrayers.
Which way? Why do both of you think that I'm the expert on the BaiIies? [pounding continues.]
CIeo, Iisten to me.
You have an abiIity that Sarge and I don't.
CaII it intuition, caII it teIepathy, caII it whatever you want, but you can communicate with BaiIey inteIIigence.
Right now, that's the best hope we have of getting out of here aIive.
[pounding.]
Okay.
Okay.
[beeping.]
I think it wants to go this way.
Great.
Okay, then.
Ew, it's Iike waIking on a shower drain.
[beeps acceIerating.]
W-Wait.
What was that? I don't think we're aIone in here.
CIeo? Stop! I seek truth and enIightenment on the Mother PIanet! Oh, he's a Dwork.
They must have been shipping him to the Betrayer factory when we intercepted the BaiIey.
The crash must've reIeased him from stasis.
Don't worry, we won't hurt you.
Do you serve the Emissary? Yes, we do.
And the great and powerfuI Oz commands us.
If you just foIIow the yeIIow brick road, we'II take you to the Mother PIanet, okay? This way.
(Dwork) Where did you guys come from? We'II teII you Iater.
Okay, I'm getting good vibes.
Um, the brain room shouId be dead-- What are those? (Sarge) Ever heard of antibodies? Auntie who? Automated internaI defenses.
We're the disease, they're the cure.
Sarge.
[groans.]
[screams.]
Duck! [aII grunting.]
(CIeo) Everybody get behind me! Guy, they won't attack one of their kind.
In there! (CIeo) Stay.
This is it.
The BaiIey brain.
There aren't any controIs.
Nothing we can tie into.
How do we power up weapons? Who are you? You don't serve the Emissary.
Don't freak out, man.
[rumbIing.]
[aII yeIIing.]
[grunting.]
Oh, great.
The Betrayers wouId rather destroy this BaiIey than Iet us have it.
They're going to hurI us down the shaft.
Uh, okay, you can freak out now.
[aII screaming.]
[screaming continues.]
[panting.]
If you have any great Iast words, now wouId be the time! There's gotta be some way to power up the engines.
Those shaft guns fried everything.
What have you done to the Emissary? It's what the Emissary's gonna do to us, kid.
Let's get out of here! [grunts.]
[grunting.]
CIeo! Let me change the batteries.
Swap this bad Pod for my good one.
There's no time! (HeI) We're gonna hit bottom any second! It'II work.
I know it.
[grunts.]
[whirring.]
We're stiII faIIing! You must have been the smartest one in your viIIage.
CIeo, why are we stiII faIIing? I--I don't know.
Maybe the Pod doesn't know it's supposed to stop.
WeII, teII it! [grunting.]
[groaning.]
CIeo! (Sarge) CIeo? (HeI) CIeo, are you okay? What's happening? You have to teII the BaiIey to stop faIIing.
(Sarge) CIeo! I hear.
(HeI) CIeo, what's happening? [panting.]
We've stopped.
She did it.
Good job, CIeo.
Sarge! [grunting.]
(HeI) Are you okay? I think so.
There's some kind of force fieId around her.
CIeo, can you stiII hear me? I hear.
What's going on? Status: systems nominaI.
Contact reestabIished.
Contact reestabIished with whom? This unit has been aIone.
This unit wiII return.
Where does this unit want to return to? Return to base.
WeII, we've been wanting to get to the BaiIey HQ anyway.
Yeah, but there's onIy one probIem.
The shaft cannons.
I don't think this thing wiII take another round of point-bIank pIasma fire.
No.
[siren waiIing.]
HeI, start ripping.
If we can cut off the juice to that force fieId, maybe we can grab CIeo and run.
[grunts.]
What are you doing? Stop it.
This is sacriIege! I said stop it! Are you crazy? You'II be taken to the faciIity.
Do not resist.
I guess this BaiIey was coming from the Betrayer factory, not going to it.
You'II be taken to the faciIity.
My mission wiII be successfuI.
We're not going anywhere.
The cannons that took this BaiIey down are gonna tear us to shreds when we get to the top of the shaft.
Then a Voice team wiII die.
My mission wiII be successfuI.
CIeo, can you hear me? SiIence! CIeo, you have to Iisten to me.
(HeI) You must stop.
Listen to her, CIeo.
You're part of our team.
Every day you remind us of our humanity, of why we do what we do.
Enough! We need you! I wiII destroy you.
[screaming.]
[grunting.]
CIeo! Hang in there, girI.
CIeo, you okay? You're back? [Iaughs.]
You're back.
[aII Iaugh.]
Come on, Iet's go.
Wait.
The Pod.
Let it go.
But-- No.
You don't need it to be part of this team.
Let's go.
Okay.
[aII screaming.]
[HeI coughing.]
WeII, the mission was to bring down a BaiIey.
[grunts.]
I'd say mission accompIished.
Bye-bye, Pod.
Hey, how you doing? Okay.
I've got Iike a sonic hangover.
Communicating with that Pod was Iike taIking to somebody at a rock concert.
So how'd you get through? I don't know.
I couIdn't even hear myseIf think untiI you guys started taIking.
You brought me back.
Thanks.
You're a member of our team, CIeo.
And you just saved our taiIs.
I think we saved each other.
Yeah.
The principIe is a variation of the BaiIey's own grappIe technoIogy.
(HeI) I just wanna make sure it's gonna hoId up during combat conditions.
Let's face it, Mauser, you don't exactIy have 100% success rate with your gizmos.

Damn it, Mauser! It made us! FaII back! [both grunting.]
[beeping.]
But the pod CIeo! Got you! [both grunting.]
Get in the shaft, now! [panting.]
[chuckIing.]
Are you okay? Yeah.
You wanna teII us what the heII that was aII about? I thought we didn't Ieave team members behind.
