Titans (2018) s04e06 Episode Script

1
What are we gonna do?
Hmm, we're gonna go back to STAR
Labs and tell them what happened.
You weren't gonna kill him?
No.
Which now means
the end of the world is on me.
Hey, that vision you had
I was there, too. Like, I saw it.
All of us, together at the park?
Yeah.
I know this is, like,
none of my business,
and there's a lot
going on right now,
but I think that's why
I need to say something
In Gotham, in the Lazarus Pit,
when I was sucking up all the
nightmares, I saw what Dick saw.
What are you talking about?
Dick had a vision, too, and it was,
pretty much exactly like yours.
The little girl?
With the red balloon.
I don't know if he's talked
to you about this.
No, he hasn't.
What's happening to me?
You're transitioning.
You started the process
when you said the words.
Now, you must drink
from the Well of Blood
and submerge your body in it
to gain peace.
Until you do that,
your misery will only grow.
No. No, I can't.
I won't.
I only came with you to stop
you from killing my friends.
Just leave me alone.
- Is he ready?
- Not yet.
We're running out of time. If we
don't complete the ritual soon
He must come to
the Well of Blood willingly.
- And if he doesn't?
- He will.
I have a plan.
He will.
Oh, hey. Look at you.
- Hey, Gar-virus.
- Almost human-sized again.
Yeah, yeah.
How's Conner?
I'm not sure, he keeps
calling me "home slice".
Well, he said I'm hotter than
last July, so, I'd say he's fine.
Are you sure he's clean?
From the curse?
Mmm, he's clean, all right.
I checked him up one side
and down the other.
Good for you.
Where's Sebastian?
He sacrificed himself to save us.
She has him now.
As far as we know, this temple could
be on the top of Mount Everest.
And even if we do find it,
how do we get him out of there?
We could teleport.
Or that's not a thing?
And this is all assuming the
ritual hasn't already happened.
- If it has
- We're fucked.
The whole world is fucked.
We gotta still
believe there's a chance.
A chance to save him.
Yes, anything less is a failure.
So what's our move?
Something happened to
to your head?
Are you wearing cologne?
It's Drakkar Noir.
You're welcome.
If you're all done
taking in the view
Grab a seat.
We've got a demon to stop.
The Blood Moon sets
in two hours and six minutes.
What's your big idea?
It's a three-step process. We find
them, kill them, and go have a cold one.
- Hot take.
- We're not doing that.
I am done playing
demon rescue-and-rehab.
This bitch killed my dad
and put a snake up my guts.
It's time for her
and the kid to go bye-bye.
She's on high alert.
It's too dangerous.
We need to find a way to bring
Sebastian back without a head-on battle.
There's an old saying, Richard.
"He, who doesn't
learn from history is a"
What is it? Oh, yeah,
a fucking moron.
If we killed him
when we had the chance,
we'd all be in the RV
heading to 'Frisco right now.
Don't call it 'Frisco.
We don't kill people, Conner.
We're not murderers.
Got it. Except for
all the people you've murdered.
Like the ones you burned
alive in the asylum,
which caused this whole
mess in the first place.
- That was different.
- Hey!
I'm not complaining.
Shit happens.
Sometimes, people die.
It's not always a bad thing.
We're not killing Sebastian.
Even Bruce figured it out,
eventually.
Do you know how many people The Joker
killed since Batman bashed his head in?
Zero.
Zero. I like that kind of math.
Looks like you're not
all the way back yet, are you?
No, I guess not.
Looks like you're not
all the way back yet, are you?
I can't do this. I won't.
Deep inside, you know,
the life you've led
is not the life you're
meant to lead.
There are so many
memories hidden,
because they're too painful
to remember.
Are you ready to see them now?
This is your home now,
Sebastian.
And this is your room.
Just for me?
Oh, and here's a little
"welcome home" gift.
I've seen other children
your age play with these,
uh, although, I have to say, I don't
really understand how they work.
I hope you do.
You were
very happy for a time
but then, your guardian
made a mistake.
This is your home now, Lila.
She'll need your bedroom,
Sabbie.
It's warmer in here and
She's not well.
You understand, don't you?
Come here, love.
Do you know what that is, Lila?
Why don't you let her
have a try, Sabbie?
Thank you. You're a good boy.
Do you know what really
happened that day?
You were punished because
you were stronger than her.
But she was sick. I wasn't.
Was that your fault?
You had done nothing wrong.
Your strength should have been
rewarded, not her weakness.
Hey, excuse me.
Have you seen Conner?
Are you kidding? Take a look.
Bernard, I need
orbital elements.
I gotta see what
I'm working with, you feel me?
I feel you, Mr. Kent.
I think we can stop with the "Mr.
Kent" business, don't you?
Just call me Conner.
Or Mr. Luthor.
All right, Conner.
What the hell is going on?
Ask Mr. Luthor.
I am taking away the moon.
I accessed LexCorp's mainframe.
We're redirecting 58
of their satellites
to reflect sunlight
back onto the moon.
It'll basically erase the illusion
that the moon's turning red.
No Blood Moon, no blood ritual.
Okay, everyone, listen up.
Once we're fully online,
I'm gonna need thrusters
on all satellites
beyond 249.3 degrees East,
all the way up. Got it?
Hey, uh, Conner,
can I talk to you for a second?
Kind of busy, Richard.
We're down
to one hour, 46 minutes.
Please don't call me Richard.
You actually prefer Dick?
The last person to call me that
was Lex Luthor.
Then he sent six ninjas
to kill me and Tim,
so yeah, I actually prefer Dick.
Okay.
You know he wasn't actually
trying to kill you, right?
He was just sending a message.
How do you know?
'Cause if he were trying
to kill you,
he would have rigged the room
with explosives.
That's what I would have done,
if I wanted to kill you.
Look, Conner, you've been
through a lot, lately.
An hour ago, we thought
you were dead.
- Why don't you take some time
- No time.
If we don't re-position these
satellites now, we miss our chance.
- Thoughts?
- About Conner?
That something is
definitely wrong.
It's like, the "Lex"
side of him is taking over,
which, of course, means that
this satellite idea
is probably going to work.
All right, go for it.
Thank you. Sir.
I knew you'd see it my way
Dick.
By the way, how's your,
uh, "non-confrontational,
let's just sneak Sebastian
out the back door of the temple
while May Bennet's looking
the other way" plan going?
Hey, Dick. I have an idea.
It's going great.
Thanks for asking.
Do you remember when Gar
mentioned teleportation earlier?
Well, that is the idea.
I remember when he said
it hadn't been invented yet.
Yeah, well, if you'd bothered
to ask me, I would've told you
that it has, by magicians,
over 10,000 years ago.
They should have told somebody.
Yeah, I didn't say
they'd perfected it.
How am I gonna
explain this to you?
Does anyone know how to turn
this on and make it do things?
No, wait, fuck it. I I'm gonna
do this the old-fashioned way.
Okay.
Okay.
So, the old magicians got
the first part nailed.
There has always been a spell
to get someone to disorganize.
- "Disorganize"?
- Yeah. You know,
go all to bits.
That was the easy part.
The hard part was putting
them back together again.
And that's where
things went wrong.
You'd always end up
with some poor bloke
with a a foot sticking
out of his mouth,
or just a big mass of quivering
jelly with one blinking eye.
Uh, this is beginning to
sound not very promising.
Yeah. The other problem was
that no one could ever predict
exactly where a person would
be when they re-organized.
Back then they didn't know that
the earth moved through space,
so someone could re-appear
a mile high in the sky,
or right at the bottom
of the ocean.
If only there was a computer that
could predict in time and space
exactly where a disorganized
person would reorganize.
And had the ability to
control the reorganization.
Right down to
the very last atom.
Oh, wait. We do.
You're welcome.
Where is Espenson?
You're fighting your instincts.
But your instincts have always
guided you to your destiny.
Even when the world
stood in your way.
So, in this line of code,
X equals X plus one.
You can see we have a variable,
then an equal sign,
then that same variable again,
then some math operator.
In this case, it happens
to be a plus sign.
- Then a one and
- I see a shortcut.
Instead of writing
"X equals X plus one,"
um, you could just write
"X plus equals one"
and it performs
the same function.
Ding-ding, Mr. Sanger. Looks like
you are headed to the bonus round,
where the scores
can really change.
Lame.
Hey, Sebastian, hang back a sec.
So you're a smart kid.
Now, here's the thing,
teaching is about fundamentals,
not shortcuts.
And I'm worried that you haven't
mastered the fundamentals.
Take this to
the guidance office.
Have Mr. Perez find you a spot
in Basic Programming.
I was I was trying to help.
I think you need to work
on your maturity level.
That's all. You can go.
He punished you for
being smarter than him.
That's what happens when
common people are given power
over those who are
extraordinary.
Mother, there is something
you need to see.
This can't be happening.
But it is
The pain of his transition
is growing.
Mother, make him enter the Well.
Make him drink from it now.
No. I won't force him.
So the trick is
re-organizing matter
back into its original
coherent shape.
Theoretically, it's what Beast
Boy does every time he transforms.
Can it be done for someone
who's DNA isn't already encoded?
How long do I have
to figure it out?
No time at all.
Hard maybe.
Right, it's nearly time.
You ready to power up?
What makes you think you can
get me my powers back, again?
Okay. Well, I never said I
could get you your powers back.
I said I had a spell
to help you find them.
You can still feel them,
can't you?
Like a phantom limb?
Or when someone you love dies.
They might be gone, but the
connection is always there.
- Yeah. That's how it feels.
- Mmm-hmm.
The thing is though, Rachel,
magic is about intention, right?
So, your powers couldn't
have been taken from you,
unless a part of you
wanted to lose them.
You think I wanted this
to happen?
Well, you tell me.
You've done a lot of
amazing things in your life,
but you've never
just been normal.
Being normal
Yeah, that felt pretty good.
Do you even want
your powers back?
'Cause if you don't,
that is okay. I'll never tell.
Maybe being normal
is a little overrated.
Yes, I could not agree more.
So, Raven
let's get started.
What are you doing?
Right. Eat that.
- What?
- Yeah.
That's a part of the spell.
A very important,
albeit disgusting part.
So, start eating.
Okay.
- Why does it smell like
- Pineapple-mango?
Yeah, that's my conditioner.
You know, that doesn't help.
Really?
Pineapple-mango is nice.
That's it. Quickly,
like ripping off a band-aid.
Well done.
Bernard. What's up?
You'd better get over here.
Flatten the eccentricity of all
northern satellites to. 078.
Increase inclination by 39.
Yes, sir.
You, maximize Delta-V between
longitudes, a 165.4 degrees East,
- 14.7 degrees West. Quickly.
- Okay.
- This is insane.
- Compared to what?
Two hours ago I was inside a stomach
trying to kill a ghost snake.
And two hours before that,
we were fighting zombies.
And I kissed Bernard.
Big night for everyone.
- We don't have all night.
- Whoa!
And in her grace and wisdom
Yo.
Luna granted us the Moon.
All satellites orientation
complete.
Yes.
Well, he pulled it off.
We have just over an hour.
If the Blood Moon does not
return to us, we are
It will.
There's no natural way
this can be happening.
Hack into the LexCorp server.
I think I know
who's behind this.
Tonight's been pretty crazy.
I know.
I kept imagining Kal-El flying
in and seeing bald Conner
ordering everyone around.
Yeah, but,
I was thinking more about us.
Oh.
Speaking of that, um
If we find this temple
Are you going?
Sounds like
we might not have to.
Thank God.
What?
Uh, because it sounded
very dangerous,
and all you have is that tiny Bo
staff that you barely know how to use.
Um, why don't you ask that
snake if I know how to use it?
- Oh, well, maybe I will.
- Oh.
Oh, but I can't. Can I? 'Cause
you killed it, didn't you?
My hero.
You know, sooner or later,
I am gonna have to go
fight with them.
As long as it's later.
You okay?
You don't look so good.
Yeah, I don't feel so good.
Why don't you go lie down.
Go get some rest.
It's okay. I just gonna get some fresh air.
No, I'm okay. I'll
Hey, do you want some company?
It's okay. It's been
happening to me all day.
You seem restless.
Are you all right, my friend?
I'm not really in the mood
for conversation right now.
Yet so many wish
to speak with you.
If you want an autograph, I
can sign a napkin or something.
Listen
You see? They speak.
Do I know you?
The animals, they also see.
You will see,
like Buddy Baker and Mari
McCabe, but you must look.
Well, it was nice speaking
with you, but I gotta go.
Wait!
When the tower splits in half,
go to The Red.
What?
When the tower splits in half,
when you see it happen,
take yourself to The Red.
Do you understand?
Do not forget this.
In the end, all of life,
everyone and everything,
it depends on you
Garfield Logan.
Hey!
Uh, sorry.
Good work. That was impressive.
I know.
You bought us some time.
Pretty sure I saved
your ass, but sure.
You moved some satellites. You
didn't stop the earth from turning.
When they drift out of position,
they'll have a five-minute window to do
the ritual just before the moon sets.
But you knew that, right?
If they figure it out,
which they probably won't.
Right now, they're panicking, and
panic clouds rational thought.
I gotta be honest, Conner. I'm starting
to get a little concerned about you.
Why? 'Cause
I'm winning so hard?
Leather jacket, the bald head,
I get it, you're changing,
you're growing, that's all good.
Just trust me, you don't
want it to happen too fast.
Mmm, too fast.
Well, you know what, I'd say it's
happening just in fucking time.
Rachel's useless.
Gar's losing his mind, Kory's
blue-thing, inconsistent at best.
And, Tim, well,
he can't do anything at all.
So, if I were you,
I'd stop worrying about
my best player
and just take the win.
You're not the only one to
ever have to go through this.
Me, Kory, Rachel, Gar,
we've been there.
We've all had to fight
a battle with our dark side.
This isn't my dark side.
This is the side
that's looking out for me.
Maybe that's why
you don't like it.
If we're done here,
we'll be in the lab setting up
a way to bring Sebastian back.
We could use your help.
You.
Have the LexCorp servers had any hack
attempts in the last ten minutes?
Four minutes ago.
Mainframe breach.
Satnav was accessed and viewed.
- Point of origin?
- Huh?
Where did it come from?
Um North Metro Quadrant. Just
off State Road 19 near Hynek Lake.
The Fire Creek Dam.
That's where she is.
Thank you.
Go ahead. This will
ease your pain.
At least for now.
We don't have much time.
When the moment comes,
you must be ready.
- Please
- No.
I need your full attention now.
You still have
a final lesson to learn.
What's this?
I knew you'd forget.
Oh, no.
It was six months ago, tonight,
that I came into your store.
- Oh, my God.
- And you were standing there
with your your apron
and your little turtle
Tortoise, actually,
and it was quite big, so
Yes, tortoise. Whatever.
And, uh, you looked up at me
"Hello, then. Can I help you?"
Is that supposed to be me? But
I don't sound like that, do I?
- You sound exactly like that.
- Oh, my God.
And I remember thinking, um
"That's the loneliest man
I've ever seen.
Why is he so lonely?
I've gotta do something
about that."
And I've seen you
every single day since then.
Are you gonna open it?
You always talked about how
the one your mother gave you
was the start
of everything, so
And now with you
designing your own game,
I thought maybe it
would be inspirational.
We need to talk.
Uh okay.
Well, I I think you
you know what I'm going to say.
I really don't.
It's over.
You're joking, right?
- What's what's wrong?
- This.
All of this, this
None of it makes any sense.
I mean, what
what am I supposed to do?
Just sit here and wait
for you to figure it out?
What are you talking about?
Don't, don't, don't,
don't do that.
Don't act all surprised,
or or upset, or
Look, um,
I'm I'm trying to make this
easier on both of us.
Are you breaking up with me?
Yes.
Look, um Okay.
- I don't know what's hap
- I can't do this anymore!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I Look, I I know
how this goes.
Things seem great, and then,
someone else comes along.
And that's it.
- What? That isn't true.
- Yes. Yes, yes, it is.
See, I'm not the destination, Julie.
I never am.
I'm just a step along the way.
You're wrong.
You can lie to yourself
but don't lie to me.
Look, I'm I'm gonna go.
Uh
I think we have more to talk
about, so I'm gonna call you
Don't.
Why did you do it?
Because I knew she would,
eventually
When other people hurt you,
that's a tragedy.
But if you take up the cudgel
and do it for them, that's a sin.
Every single one of your
followers knows your greatness.
They will never leave you.
If you don't know that,
you're lost.
We pledge our eternal devotion.
Show him your devotion.
We pledge our eternal devotion.
They see you.
They know what you are.
Do you?
Yes. I do.
So, do I have enough juice?
Did you do something
to increase your strength?
I'm not sure. Why?
When I saw you last week,
you only had access to 8.1%
of your total estimated
kinetic output.
You now have access to over 80%.
And what does that mean?
It means, you need
to be careful.
This isn't just a weapon
anymore, Kory.
If you go all out,
it'll consume you.
It'll kill you.
All right. We need to be clear on
exactly how this is gonna work.
Let's run it one more time.
Rachel?
I'll reach out, search
for my powers and then,
from there, I should be able
to zone-in on Sebastian.
Okay, once that starts Kory?
I join hands with Rachel and
begin feeding her my blue light.
And once the connection
is secure Jinx?
I join hands with
Rachel and Kory,
and once Sebastian is
thoroughly disorganized,
the three of us
draw him back here.
And as long as all
his physical matter ends up
somewhere in this room,
I'll reassemble him.
All right. Once we start,
we've got one shot at this.
It has to work. Okay.
Hey.
Just wanted to say thank you.
For what?
I haven't done anything yet.
Either way, I'd say you've
earned your five million dollars.
Don't make me regret it.
You really think
this was about the money?
Wasn't it?
Yeah. Yeah, of course.
But, I have to admit, hanging
out with you these past few days,
it's been a lot more fun
than I expected.
You call this fun?
Sick, isn't it?
What have I become?
Let's go get Sebastian.
Do it.
With pleasure.
So
How did that feel?
You have pleased me
by coming here
and showing me your capacity
for blind rage.
An instinct you have ignored
for too long.
You killed my father.
He was so easy to kill.
I sent the same serpent for you
to do my bidding,
but you are so much
stronger than him.
But you're not stronger than me.
Okay, Rachel,
focus on the light.
Now,
picture your power growing like
leaf-shoots bursting from a tiny seed
and spreading out,
searching for air,
searching for sunlight.
Searching for you.
Now, Kory.
They've got Conner.
Fire Creek Dam.
Forty miles north of here.
Funded by the Luthor Foundation.
Yep. That's where they are.
Maybe 200 feet underneath.
Then that's where we're going.
I thought we wanted to avoid
a head-on confrontation?
Thanks to Conner,
now we have no choice.
Can't we teleport them both out?
No! When you try and do two,
their cells intermingle.
It's not pretty.
And do them one at a time,
they'll notice what's happening
and make sure it doesn't.
All right. Find Gar.
We leave in five minutes.
Dick, wait!
This prophecy, it's, um
I don't know. I have a really
bad feeling about tonight.
If you're asking if I believe in that?
No, I don't.
Well, it's hard to dismiss,
isn't it?
Everything else is coming true
To hell with prophecies
and destinies, and visions.
Kory, you said it yourself,
you've had more visions
than anyone,
and none of them have come true.
There's one more.
You and me
and a little girl
holding a red balloon.
I had it, too.
Why didn't you tell me?
I don't know.
It's okay.
It's like you said.
To hell with visions.
This is a map to the temple
based on what Rachel saw.
Gar, you're first. Break in
and find Rachel's powers.
We need her back up to full
speed as soon as possible.
Be destructive. Something big.
I got it covered.
All I need from you is
to keep her distracted,
while, Tim, and Rachel find Conner
and Sebastian and get out of there.
That leaves the rest up to you.
I'm gonna have to
get real close.
You can kill her?
Yeah, I could fucking kill her.
I'll take her out. Nut her!
I mean, I will freeze her
long enough for us to get the
fuck out of there, presumably.
Let's be clear on one thing.
This is not personal.
This is a smash-and-grab.
We get in, we get the boys
and get out. Understood?
All right, let's go.
Hey, it's okay, Krypto.
We'll bring him back.
I promise.
Mother the Blood Moon
is coming back.
We only have five minutes.
The time for transformation
is finally here.
Drink from the blood.
Then bathe in the pool.
Only then, your transformation
will be complete.
Azarath. Metrion. Zinthos.
Rachel?
I have no idea.
I have to admit,
as welcomes go
This is a little
on the chilly side.
What's that, love?
Can't hear you.
Jinx!
Fuck! Not again.
I got this.
Hey!
Son, help me!
Sebastian! Sebastian, come
on, please, it's not too late.
Please, Sebastian!
I'm sorry, Rachel. I'm staying.
Sebastian,
you don't have to do this.
Yes, I do.
I'm just so tired
of being nothing.
No!
Take me to The Red.
My son, you're finally home.
