Primeval s03e06 Episode Script

(Playing music from the record) (Connor and Abby cheer up) It seems the prime minister is promising peace in our time.
Guys listen to this.
"There is no one left.
"The others are all dead.
"God help me, is happening again.
"They're here.
And that's where it ends.
- Who's here? (Record ends noisily) Sorry.
(Some creature sounds) They found us.
Get them out the back! Come on, let's go.
- (Connor) I'll catch you up.
- (Sarah) Abby.
- Go! (Creature sounds behind Danny) (Danny) Connor! Adaptation to 'Hearing Impaired' by Smoyl from Turkiye Season 3- Episode 6 (Infrared system beeps continously) (Infrared system cuts out) Yes (Alarm sounds in ARC) (Cpt.
Becker) Bang! That's 3 seconds longer than last time.
How did you get in? Car park, ventilation system.
- I suggest you - Check all infrared systems are tamper proof and secure all ventilation shafts.
Exactly.
What are they doing? Checking security.
Not very well, apparently.
(Christine) They have no idea we are watching them.
- What is this? - Please do not touch anything.
- I do not want you to change my settings.
- Sorry.
You know wha-what are you doing? You can come out.
I'm seen by the management view whatever that you are.
It's OK.
I don't think he saw us.
We are flatmates, why-why he cannot see us? We are not flatmates.
And if I ever find your socks in the bread maker again you are fired! Keeping them warm.
Connor! - Oh, hello! - These papers were classified! Probably going to shred them anyway then.
This arrangement is not working.
I really don't want to hurt you.
You're all talk.
(Rex barks) (Abby) Careful.
(Jack) Him? What about me? He's more valuable than you.
- How valuable? - Priceless.
You know I got to go.
What you're doing today? Ah, this and that.
(Cellphone dials a number) She is going out we're on.
(Christine) Get closer.
It is.
The artifact.
They've cleaned it up.
I knew it.
They had it all the time.
I'm assuming no luck on the X-ray analysis? Well it only confirmed what we alredy knew.
No closer to find what it actully does.
No.
Light.
Light.
Light! Connor, you've got it! You found it.
You got it.
You are a genius.
I know.
What I've done? Hm, I'm going to enjoy this.
Get the minister on the phone.
Yes maam.
So you think the laser may unluck it? Ah, try diffusing the beam.
Good idea.
Allright.
- Diffused.
- Fully? Yep.
Didn't leave the instruction manual in the box, won't you? - Ahm, try another angle.
- Angle, OK.
- (Connor) See anything? - Nope.
- How about now? - (Sarah) No.
- How about now? - Is not working.
- How about now? - Connor, is not working.
It's got nothin to do with the light, our call is wrong.
We can't just give up, we have to keep trying there got to be something within - Connor, did you see that? - That was like incredible.
Was that some kind of a map? The points where the lines are crossing, looked exactly like Cutter's research model! He knew Cutter knew.
This is some kind of I don't know a key to Predicting anomalies.
Whatever we did, we have to do it again.
(Sarah) OK.
What did you do? Not 100% sure.
(Christine) Well, well.
(Christine) The artefact predicts anomalies.
What you wanna do? Don't put through the minister, I'll phone him on the way.
We are going in.
I am satisfied there was no serious breach of security.
Excellent.
A new definition of "serious".
You left him upsail in the ventilation shaft.
Yes sir.
That surveillance camera is a waste of time by the way.
What cam? The one on the shaft, covering the corridor.
There is no camera there.
Am I missing something? Vents.
- Anything? - (Becker) Clear.
You? Smile boys, we are on TV.
How is going? Ehm, we just opened the artifact.
Connor! Yo! - They have seen it.
- They have seen what? Johnson, she knows we got the artifact.
We got 5 minutes.
- Get my bag.
- (Becker) Security lockdown.
(Staff) Secure the main gate.
- (Connor) Go! - (Staff) Closing the main gate.
(Becker) Wait, stop! (Alarm sounds continously in ARC) She is already here.
All exits are covered.
(Captain Ross) Find the crim and the artifact! (Soldiers) Let's go! Move, move.
(Soldiers) Move, move.
I know one exit she hasn't got covered.
Lester is looking for a safe place.
Whatever you do, don't break cover.
We'll find you when is clear.
Stop there, drop your weapons! No sir, you drop yours.
(Soldiers cocks their guns) We really don't want to kill you sir.
So, mate, with fuel injection, it's rather like osmosis - a solvent passes through a semi-permeable membrane to form an equilibrium.
Yes? Put your weapon down, Becker, and surrender the artefact.
With respect, I don't take orders from you.
You do now.
(Car horns) Danny, I hope you know what you're doing.
Stop! What do you mean, the Minister isn't in? Did you tell him it was me? (Christine) I'm afraid he won't be taking your call, James.
You've been a bad boy! They're still on our tail, Danny.
Danny, what are we going to do? Hold on tight.
This could get a bit lively.
(Car horns) Danny? (Captain Ross) Stay in line.
Keep your hands where we can see them.
(Captain Ross) Keep it moving! Sorry, ma'am They got away.
Well, don't just stand there.
Find them.
- Tell me where they've gone.
- No idea.
You know what freelance staff are like - always popping in and out.
You can't protect them for long.
The truth is, you can't do much of anything any more.
Oh, and you're in my chair! You know, this isn't over, Christine.
When people say that, James, it usually is.
Ladies and gentlemen, James Lester has been relieved of his duties.
(Christine) Please continue working normally (Christine) and this transition will run smoothly.
(Cellphone beeps for an SMS) (Connor) The ARC.
- At least we know where we're going.
- Get rid of your mobiles.
I've just signed a new 18-month contract.
They can trace it.
You do realise this isn't personal, Captain? It's purely a question of national security.
Of course, ma'am.
I've looked at your file, Becker.
You're a good soldier.
I am your commanding officer now.
I assume there is no conflict of loyalties? None at all.
Find me the artefactand you're looking at a very rapid promotion.
I'll do my best.
(Pop music) - (Lad#1) I'll raise you 300.
- (Lad#2) Pass.
- Don't want to play with the big boys? - I'm out as well.
- Cool lizard.
- What? Oh yeah, very rare.
Just like this hand.
I'm all in.
I call.
(Danny) Something tells me this safe house hasn't been used for years.
(Danny) Thanks a lot, Lester.
This place looks terrific(!) (Danny) It was never going to be a four-star hotel, was it? - Is it locked? - (Sarah) Yeah.
Leave this to me.
The only part of being a copper I enjoyed.
(Danny) Come on.
Wow! Urgh - Chateau Lafite.
Not a bad vintage.
- Why, is that worth much? About £1,000.
There's no power.
It'll be like Christmas at my gran's.
Please, God, nobody mention charades! (Connor) I'm going to get some wood for the fire.
Argh! That hurt.
Huh! Oh, no! That's just wrong! (Danny) This trip wire will act as an early-warning system.
How long do you reckon we should wait here? As long as it takes.
We haven't got any food.
Oh, er found them in the car.
They're going to find us, aren't they? It's just a matter of time.
But we're not going to give up without a fight, are we, eh? - No.
- Come on.
It's like they thought they were coming back at any minute.
Oh Right, let's see if you still work.
Hey.
Probably past its sell-by date.
- Brilliant.
Corned beef.
I love it.
- Corned beef Abby! - Aren't they beautiful? - Wow! (Generator starts hardly) Whoa! (Music sounds from the turntable weakly) (Music sounds from outer speakers) Hello, hello, this is Connor Temple.
(Connor's voice from speakers) Is anybody receiving me? Over.
Hello? (Generator fails) Hm (Noises from the behind) (A bang from somewhere) - Get it off me! - (Abby) What are you doing? Argh! Huh! (Connor shouts) What? I just opened the door and it fell out on me.
He must have got trapped inside.
(Danny) It looks like some sort of viewing room.
(Generator starts hardly) It's a diary.
(Danny) It's written in some sort of code.
- Can you crack it? - Of course I can.
What happened here? Where did they all go? (Music sounds from the turntable) - You're cleaned out, Jackie! - Come on! - One of you can afford to sub me.
- Sorry, mate.
I'll bet the lizard against whatever you've got.
It's worth a fortune.
Abby told me.
All right.
The lizard.
# When the little bluebird who has never said a word # Starts to sing "Spring! Spring!" # And the little bluebell At the bottom of the dell # Starts to ring "Ding! Ding!" Abby? # Sings a tune to the moon above # It is nature, that's all, simply telling us to fall in love # In old Amsterdam # Argentines, without Guys, listen to this.
"There's no-one left.
"The others are all dead.
"God help me, it's happening again.
"They're here.
" And that's where it ends.
Who's here? (Turntable ends noisily) (Anomaly alarm sounds) - (Becker) It's an anomaly! (Christine) Does Quinn have access to a detector? No.
There's no way they can know about the anomaly.
Then my men can cover it.
You stay here.
It was written by a Professor John Morton.
He was a military scientist who came here with his team to do meteorological tests, but then something happened.
They found something in the woods, but Morton doesn't say what.
(Some kind of bird's voice sounds) That sounds like some kind of bird's distress call.
But what type of bird would make that sound? - I don't know.
(Sounds from the empty cans) - It's the trip wire.
- Have they found us? - Get them out the back! - Come on, let's go.
- (Connor) I'll catch you up.
- (Sarah) Abby.
- Go! (Sounds from the empty cans) (Sarah) Hide in the bunker.
- An anomaly.
- Let's get to the car.
(Creature sounds behind Danny) Danny! Run! That Lafite was worth £1,000 a bottle! I think it was corked anyway.
(Danny) Don't worry about.
Get to the car! OK, OK.
(Connor) Get in the car! Get in the car, it's a creature! Come on! Go go go go! Where's it gone? Look out! - Are you OK? - Yeah.
I can't see him.
(Creature yells) - Connor, drive faster! - (Sarah) Put your foot down! Brace yourselves! Oh, my god, I think I've killed Danny! - Danny! - (Sarah) Danny! - Whoo! - Yes! Whoo hoo! Well done, mate! (Sarah screams) - Are you all right? - I'm OK, I'm OK, I'm OK.
- (Danny) Good girl.
- (Sarah) Connor Connor.
Are you all right, Connor? (Danny) Put your back against there.
- Are you all right? - Yeah.
- Connor, speak to me.
(Distant wail) It's coming back Abby.
Abby! - What? - Listen to me.
Listen.
We never can outrun it.
OK? You two get back to the lodge.
It's the only place we might be safe.
I'll look after him, I promise.
All right? (Danny) Now go! Go go! - (Abby) Connor! - (Sarah) Come on! Over there.
Check it out.
I'll secure the area.
Ow! (Danny) Close the door quietly.
- (Connor whispers) Where are you? - (Danny) I'm up here.
- What are you doing up there? - What do you think I'm doing up here? I don't know.
Kind of why I asked.
Where's the bird? Close-ish.
So keep your voice down.
Sorry.
What are we going to do? - We're going to trap it.
- Brilliant.
How are we going to do that? Cool.
- So what do you want ME to do? - Just stay down there and look tasty.
You what? You're the bait.
(Abby) I know it's this way.
Urgh! (Sarah) Great for dancing.
Not so good for cross-country.
(Connor whistles) (Connor whistles again) - Are you sure this is going to work? - How can it fail? Only in about 100 different ways.
Come on.
Where are you? Maybe, maybe we scared it away.
Maybe maybe it's just frightened.
(Distant wail) Not frightened enough.
Get back in the car.
(Creature wails) - (Danny) Get back in the car! - Come on, come on! - Danny! Come on, come on! - (Danny) Connor! Get out of there! - (Connor) OK, I'm getting out! (Creatures' sounds surround) There's more of them.
(Creatures' sounds get closer) (Sarah) Quick, hide! I think they've gone.
(Creatures' sounds from close distance) Oh, my god! (Creatures roar) Run! - What? - Look.
(Danny) Watch where you put your feet.
Good advice Thanks.
Watch out! Look out! - Danny! - Whoa! Whoa! Stop! It's a minefield.
- How was your hopscotch at school? - Pretty good.
- Great.
- (Connor) Come on! Come on! - Come on, come on, come on! (Connor) Watch out! - (Danny) Come on! - (Connor) Quick, girls, please, quickly! (Danny) Give me your hand! Let's go! Go to the lodge! (Danny whistles) (Mine explodes) Stay where you are, you're under arrest! - What was the explosion? - It was a creature.
You have to get us out of here, please! Mate, there is more of them.
- All in good time.
- Trust me, we need to hurry.
Shut up! What are you looking at? (Screams and wails mix) Connor! (Mine explodes) (Creature wails) - (Danny) Connor! - (Sarah) Abby, come on! - Danny.
- (Danny) All right.
(Christine) What happened? Where's the artefact? (Becker) Let me handle this.
I know how Quinn's mind works.
Fine.
Do it.
Shouldn't we report this to the Minister? Lester kept him informed on operational decisions.
Let ME worry about the Minister.
He'll find out what I choose to tell him.
With respect, ma'am, if he discovers he's not being fully informed The Minister is an imbecile.
He can barely blow his own nose.
Do you really think I'm going to let a Whitehall glove puppet with the IQ of a root vegetable tell me how to do my job? Now find Quinn for me.
You never know, maybe the explosions just scared them all off.
More than likely, they'll be gathering somewhere like hyenas preparing to steal a kill.
(Logde shakes deeply) Looks like tea break's over.
- Abby, are you all right? - (Abby) Yeah.
Go.
Go!! (Sarah) Block this up! - Ready? - Yeah.
Again! (Connor) Go! Danny! Abby! Sarah! (Danny) Connor! - Connor! - I can't hold this! Connor, talk to me.
I don't know where they've gone! - (Danny) Go! Go go! - (Connor) Use the wardrobe! Block it up! I've got to go back in that room.
- You're kidding! - No.
(Danny) The record! It's our only chance! - What are you doing? - I've got an idea.
(Danny) I've got to get to the bunker.
Connor! (Danny) Connor! (Danny) Connor! Do something! (Danny) I can't hold them off! Hey! Over here! Over here! I'm so much more tastier than him! - Connor! - Come over here, it's dinnertime! Huh? - Connor! (Connor screams) (Connor yells) - Connor! (Connor yells) Connor! (Danny) Let's attract your attention, boys.
Yes! (Generator starts hardly) (Generator fails) (Abby) Sarah! - Connor! - All right? Quickly! Quickly! - Where's Abby? - She's on the roof.
- What? Sarah! I'm slipping! (Creature voice sounds from speakers) Come on, boys! Time to go home.
Danny.
Anyone got a belt? These trousers are a nightmare.
Oh! I wouldn't have bothered.
(Abby) Good idea to use that record to attract the birds.
I'm just chuffed you care so much, Connor.
(Connor) What? (Soldiers cocks their guns) - (Becker) You're all under arrest.
Oh, you've got to be joking! My orders are to take you back to the ARC.
I'm authorised to use deadly force if I have to.
- You're Johnson's man now? - I'm just following orders.
- Like a good little soldier boy.
- Where's the artefact? Excellent work, Captain.
I can see you're a man with real potential.
- Very kind, madam.
- I think I'm going to be sick! I'd have a little more respect if I were you, Quinn.
You're looking at a serious charge of stealing government property.
Hello, Christine.
You're not authorised to enter this facility, James.
I think you're sitting in my chair.
Captain, would you escort this troublesome man from the building? - I'm afraid I can't do that, ma'am.
- What? (Christine's voice) The Minister is an imbecile.
(Christine's voice) He can barely blow his own nose.
(Christine's voice) Do you really think I'm going to let a Whitehall glove puppet (Christine's voice)with the IQ of a root vegetable tell me how to do my job? Yes, Captain Becker recorded it and I sent a copy to Whitehall.
Oh, that reminds me, the Minister wants to see you.
Actually, he did seem a little upset.
Christine, I did tell you it wasn't over.
No, James I assure you it's not.
(Danny whistles) You are my hero.
And mine.
But don't expect any kisses from me.
Haven't you all got work to do? Sorry, mate, I was out of order.
- No problem.
Just don't call me "soldier boy" again.
- Sorry! - You missed us, didn't you? - Don't be ridiculous.
# Somewhere over the rainbow # Way up high # In the dreams that you dream of # Once in a lullaby # Oh # Somewhere over the rainbow # Bluebirds fly # - All right? - Not bad.
What happened to you? Oh, just another boring day at the office.
- Have you been having a party? - Oh, just a few friends.
- I'll clean up in a bit.
- Yeah, you will.
- Where's Rex? - Up in my room.
OK.
Cool.
We've had a dragon, a knight in shining armour A damsel in distress would be nice.
Explain to me why Rex is up for auction on the internet? - Gambling and poker.
- Get him back! We have to find him.
He's lost in an unknown world.
- The mark of the beast.
- Sling your 'ook! Take it outside! You are demons.
And I am in hell.
