The Sarah Jane Adventures s04e10 Episode Script

Sarah Jane Smith lives.
And it's home to things way beyond your imagination.
There's an extra-terrestrial super computer in the wall.
Her, son a genetically-engineered boy genius.
A schoolgirl investigator across the road.
And a whole universe of adventure, right here on the doorstep.
Ready? Always.
This is a time window.
Find the objects and they will bring you home.
Is this Buckingham Palace? 'Tis the tower of London.
What are you looking at? Germans.
I see it, you're right.
I'm not a spirit.
Ta-da.
Eight o'clock, that's it.
Good morning.
That must be what that junk shop bloke's after.
It's coming from in there.
If Sarah Jane and her friends do not return soon they'll be trapped in the past.
And she diestonight.
Get after them! Los! Los! Nazis are right behind me.
Right, nice one! Let's get help! 'Ben, it's locked.
' 'Let me try.
' It's horrible.
It's exactly how my mother died.
It's over now.
It's all over.
But why did it stop so suddenly? I guess because that's where it ends for those children.
Matilda! No! Lady Matilda? No! Get away from her! Lady Rani, be careful! MATILDA SHOUTS Hold still! I will not hesitate to use this! Are you all right? I am fine, thank you.
And you have just saved my life.
What is all this commotion? Matilda just tried to kill Lady Jane! A treacherous Catholic? I am no Catholic.
I am a Protestant.
One of my own? Then why? Your death would have inspired thousands to rise up against Mary.
And now she will simply lock you up.
Then, one day, she will have you quietly executed, when you could have died a martyr.
That's it.
The object that's changing history.
But you weren't supposed to die tonight.
I saved you.
That's what I was sent here to do.
Lady Jane has not been saved.
You have condemned her to die, like a common traitor.
Forgotten and alone.
It brought it all back to me, hearing those children.
It must have been like that for Mother.
I know what you went through, Emily, I know what you're going through.
I lost both my parents when I was very young.
You understand then, that if I'd found ghosts here, I'd know also that Mother was out there somewhere.
Yes, but you have to live in the here and now.
Oh, you're lucky, because there's someone here and now, who loves you.
Your father.
I know.
The here and now.
But we must help those children.
I couldn't save Mother, but there's got to some way we can save them.
Trouble is, it's all over now.
But remember, it happens every night at eight o'clock.
We'll have to come back tomorrow.
Not necessarily.
Think about this house, Emily.
It's empty The clock! So we can make it happen? Let's see, shall we? CLOCK CHIMES It's going to begin again, isn't it? It has to.
We can't help those children unless we understand.
DOOR OPENS I'm so sorry I'm late, Mrs Bruce.
Look, Sarah Jane, you did it! We can see her now! See you about half eleven.
The echoes of the future must be getting stronger.
Hello? Can you hear me? I've got to get back to the church.
I need that hammer.
Why's it so important? Anyway, you can get it when the Home Guard nobble the Jerries.
Good golly, young man! Look where you're going.
George? Well, am I glad to see you, Miss.
Three Germans! At the church! Who's this? Miss Wyckham, our teacher.
They held us hostage but we escaped.
We have to inform the Home Guard.
They've been captured too, and the whole of Little Malding! Really? Everyone in the village? How many Germans are there, then? Dozens! The place is surrounded, but I managed to slip through.
We can't go anywhere near the village.
Then what now? We must all go back to St Michael's.
She's right.
We're the only ones who can stop the Nazis now and their radio thingy.
But they're all armed, remember? Yes, George and so are we.
PLANE FLIES OVERHEAD I am afraid of what the morning may bring.
I fear I do not have long for this world.
Forgive me, but I feel so alone.
You're not alone, Lady Jane, remember.
You have me.
Has Lady Matilda been secured? Yes, Jane, but so have we.
The palace is surrounded by Mary's guards.
Then I was right, the end is not far off.
This is so unfair! Can't we tell them, tell Mary that you were used? You didn't want to be Queen! I fear Mary still sees Jane as a threat.
If she is to restore the Catholic faith, she will not want Jane fuelling the Protestant cause.
You may go now and try to get to safety.
Somehow I knew, when Father brought me here to be crowned that I would not leave.
This castle was my palace, but now it is my prison.
As I am no longer Queen, you may return home, if you wish.
You're right, I could go home so easily.
I'm not going to.
Not yet.
Not while you still need a friend.
NO! She must not delay! PARROT SQUAWKS The Sands of Time have run out, Captain! They have failed in their missions! All is lost! But the Time Window should have closed! The Chronosteen must be holding it open! And unless it is found, the whole planet will be sucked in and destroyed! Come on, Sarah Jane! Yes, but I can't come out, Joe, not tonight, it's impossible.
You know I've got to look after Ben and Katy.
Yeah, I know but Yeah, all right, just chill out.
OK, I'll slip out.
Where shall we meet you? She must be the babysitter.
And not a very trustworthy one it seems.
So she's from the future? Goodness.
She's got funny clothes, just like you.
And what's that she's talking into? It's a mobile telephone.
I knew Mr Bell's invention would catch on.
But a wireless telephone? The future must be very exciting.
No, those two will be fine.
I've locked their bedroom door.
Keep 'em out of trouble.
Anyway, they'll be asleep soon.
CHILDREN LAUGH You two! Go to sleep! It's still not here.
What's not here? This object I'm looking for.
There's still upstairs.
Then it's got to be there, otherwise Earth's future is in serious trouble.
Listen to me.
When the Jerries have their backs to the door, give me a signal, I'll burst in, you two bring up the rear.
Understood? Good luck, Miss.
This is our chance.
(Now!) Right you lot, put your hands up! Good going, Miss.
What a star! Quite right.
The star of the Fuhrer's conquering army.
Welcome back, schwein! I was sent here, on a mission.
On a mission to save me? I only wish that I could really save you, from what's to come.
But I can't, can I? We each have a path that we must tread, and this is mine.
All I hope is that I will be remembered even though I was Queen just nine days.
Of course you're remembered.
I mean, will be remembered.
For hundreds of years to come.
You say that with such strange certainty, Lady Rani.
That's cos it's true.
How is it you seem so wise? Is there something you are not telling me? Are you truly of this world? Don't be daft, course I am.
Whoever you are, wherever you are from, I would not wish to spend these last hours of freedom with anyone else.
Koenig, what is the matter with you? How could you let them escape? She was lying about everything, about the village, the Home Guard.
Definitely what that shop bloke's after.
Perhaps I can kill two birds with one stone.
If you're planning another escape, don't bother.
Within the hour the German invasion will be underway.
Invasion? What are you talking about? I wasn't posted to this dreary village at random.
Little Malding's coastline is dotted with early-warning radar.
They have proved irritatingly successful at alerting the enemy to our aircraft and ships.
But we can render the entire system useless, with our Sieg Transmitter.
So that thing blocks British radar? Right now the glorious German fleet is preparing to depart harbours all along the Dutch and Belgian coast.
Your so-called British Intelligence will not suspect until it is far too late.
We know.
Clyde and me.
And what can two schoolboys do? You'd be surprised.
I've taken on bigger loonies than you lot.
I've fought hideous, bug-eyed monsters.
And defeated them all, with this! What is that? Oh, this, this is a bomb.
A very small bomb, but powerful enough to blast this entire church! He's bluffing! It can't be! Do you really want to take that chance? Here you go catch! I've got it! It was a trick! Give that to me! Get back! Or we'll smash it.
People like you disgust me.
You hate and you fear anyone who isn't the same as you.
But we're British and we will fight you every step of the way.
And in the end, though it'll cost lives, lots of lives, we'll crush you lot.
You don't stand a chance.
Really? But remember, you've lost this battle, and you'll lose the war.
I know I've seen it.
Loess! Open the door now! Make like it's Sunday, Georgie! BELLS CHIME OUT It's over, Koenig! Come on! The children's room.
But that door's different.
It's got to be what the shopkeeper was after.
So he must have sent me to the wrong time.
But why? Maybe you came to meet me.
Well, I'm certainly glad I did.
So that key is in the future? And the door is still open in our time? Precisely.
Which means we can walk straight through it.
Amazing! Ben, don't! You mustn't! You know what Mum told us.
Shut up, Katy! It's only a candle! Please don't! So he starts the fire.
And they've been locked in here.
How can we help them? I'm thinking, I'm racking my brain.
Ben! You'll start a fire.
I can't stand it! They heard me! But how? They're at a completely different point in time.
I'm telling Gemma! I was thinking about the night Mother died, and then I felt it, just for a moment.
I'm sure I crossed over into their time.
Your fear, it must be connecting to theirs! Ben, it's locked! Let me try.
Oh, if you can cross over, you can turn your fear into a force for good! Come on! Ben, we're trapped! Ben, we're trapped! Concentrate on that terrible night.
It'll save them.
Come on, Emily.
Remember your mum, Emily.
Your fear will connect you.
Yes! It worked! We did it! We saved them! No, Emily, you saved them.
And your mother would be very, very proud of you.
How do I look? Most becoming, my lady.
I wish to be prepared.
But promise me you will leave soon.
It's too dangerous here.
I said I'd stay by your side, and I meant it.
But they will arrest you too.
Don't worry about me, I can look after myself.
I'm so sorry, Jane.
Queen Mary has ordered you be taken to the Keep, to await trial.
You must come now.
Do not fret, Ellen.
I have done my living, and I am ready for something far more important.
I may go to my death, but it will not be in vain.
Tell me again that I am not forgotten.
I promise you.
Not by your people, and not by history, and never by me.
Goodbye, Rani.
My friend.
It is time for me to leave you now.
And me to leave you.
Goodbye, Jane.
'Tis witchcraft! Lady Rani is not of this world, but she is no witch, Ellen.
She is an angel.
I have always suspected so.
And as angels speak only the truth, I know I do not die in vain.
BELLS PEAL They'll probably be back at the beach by now.
I hope they don't get away after all we've done.
The Home Guard will catch 'em, you can bet your life on that.
You're right, Clyde, what you said to them Jerries.
We will crush 'em.
I'm going to join up and help do it myself.
That's not what I meant, George.
I don't want you to fight.
It's dangerous out there.
It's my duty, for King and Country.
At least leave it a few years.
Not likely.
I'm going to get stuck in, soon as they let me.
Just you wait and see.
Right, you wait for the Home Guard.
Keep the door locked though, in case the Jerries come back.
And where are you going? Back to where I came from, I hope.
London? But what about the bombing? It's not the London you're thinking of.
Look, I can't explain.
Good luck though, Georgie-boy.
And if you do sign up, please, be careful.
Well, stone me! Come on! Come on! THEY GASP Yep, all in one piece.
Please, let me have the Chronosteen! And I'm loving the new look.
What is happening here? And where's Sarah Jane? She's still in the past.
And without her the Earth is doomed! Do you think my father will believe that I've travelled in time? Not everyone's as open to new ideas as us.
But at least you two you'll be talking, sharing things, and not dwelling on what's gone and can't come back.
Yes, it's the here and now that counts, you were right.
Though the future does sound exciting.
The future's got its problems too.
Talking of which.
Emily, I need that key.
Thank you.
What's happening? I'm going back, to my own time.
I'm sorry, but this is goodbye.
But I don't want you to go! I want you here! I want to learn more! You will, all by yourself.
Please, let go! Oh, Sarah Jane, I'm sorry.
Rani, Clyde, you're OK! Where is the Chronosteen, Miss Smith? The key! I need the third object! I'm so sorry, but I lost it.
Send me, I'll get it back! The Time Window is too dangerous now.
Only the key can close it.
And it must be closed! There must be something we can do! It's too late! The Earth is about to be sucked into the Time Vortex! We've got to stop it! BELL RINGS Are you Sarah Jane Smith? I've been asked to give you this.
SARAH JANE GASPS We did it! The Time Window's shut! Indeed you did.
How marvellous! Where are you going? Now, that would be telling.
The Captain's work is done here, which is all you need to know.
I'd love to stay and chat, but, well, duty calls.
'The Captain's work'? We've been working for a flippin' parrot? THEY LAUGH But who were they anyway? Uh I don't think they wanted us to know.
Can't stick these enigmatic types.
Well, I was warned to expect some strange things.
And I must say, Miss Smith, you do not disappoint.
Well, welcome to my world.
And thank you, Miss Morris? Angela Pryce.
Emily Morris was my grandmother.
Oh, good on Emily.
She came through in the end.
When I was a little girl, Granny gave me that key, said she'd made a terrible mistake by taking it, and told me to bring it to the place in this article, on this very day.
She said I'd meet a woman called Sarah Jane Smith.
It's been quite a wait.
A lifetime or two, in fact.
You and your granny have just saved the world.
Oh! So, what happened to Emily? She became a doctor, then founded a hospital for children.
She inspired so many to follow in her footsteps, including my mother and me.
We loved her very much.
Let's get a cuppa, shall we, Angela? I want to hear lots more about your grandmother, and you.
That's anice dress.
Oi! BELL RINGS WHOOSHING SOUNDS "Following his triumph as an evacuee in Norfolk, George Woods "joined the Army, aged just 16, and fought in the Battle of Ardennes.
"But it's for his work in the field of radar development that George, "now 83, has been honoured this week by Her Majesty the Queen.
" "And in the final hours before her execution, "Lady Jane wrote to her sister, Katherine, "I am touching my death, "but rejoice, good sister.
"I shall be delivered of corruption.
"And though I lose my mortal life, "I am assured that I win immortality.
" What are you doing here? Saving the world.
She's exactly like you! What's your name? Ruby White.
You used a bio-coolant spray on a meteor you couldn't have known had fallen to Earth.
Don't think I haven't met amateurs before.
Rani, take that! Whoa! Get down! Wait till you see what I've got for you! THEY COCK WEAPONS I've got us killed.
