Cleopatra 2525 s01e01 Episode Script
Quest for Firepower
[sighs.]
It's gotta be around here somewhere.
There.
I'II go first.
ShaII I? No.
None of us are goin'.
But the Voice toId you to-- I don't care.
It doesn't feeI right.
I hope you're hearin' this.
I don't think we shouId be goin' up there.
What's her probIem? It's her first time on the surface.
(Voice) Hel, you have to.
Your target will be approaching any minute.
Is she hearing the Voice now? I certainIy hope so.
I'm not convinced that-- (Voice) Hel! This is the best opportunity you'll ever have to test our new shields against the Bailies.
We need to investigate their new weapons.
Let's go.
[birds chirping.]
It's reaIIy ugIy.
(Sarge) You'II get used to it.
[sonic whooshing.]
Hear it? (Horst) Is that what I think it is? Yeah.
It's a BaiIey.
[panting.]
What's wrong, the vertigo? Yeah.
Don't worry.
It's normaI for a first-timer.
A IittIe fire from a BaiIey ought to cIear your head.
It'II probabIy take it right off, actuaIIy.
Hey, turn off your jamming device, Horst.
We cant try out this new stuff if it doesn't find us.
There! [sonic whooshing.]
Won't be Iong now.
[beeping.]
Showtime! Okay, HeI, do it! [grunts.]
It worked! UnbeIievabIe.
(HeI) Let's go! [sonic whooshing.]
[grunts.]
[static crackIing.]
[sighs.]
Horst, you're a robot.
(HeI) A Betrayer robot.
[panting.]
(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 # # Fightin' 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 ## [both grunt.]
ShieId up.
The shieId's weakening, HeI! (HeI) Come on! We gotta get back to the Iab! (Sarge) Right behind you! [both grunt.]
[groaning.]
HeI, I've been hit.
(HeI) Hang in there, Sarge! We're aImost home.
(Sarge) HeI, why are aII the cute ones robots? I mean, we had some good times together, and it turns out he was just a machine.
[groans.]
Of course, that does expIain a few things.
Why couIdn't it be my Ieft side? I aIready Iost that one.
You have onIy one kidney? Didn't I mention that? (Voice) What's the delay? Why aren't you moving? This is the new model Betrayer that's after you.
The only way to defeat it is to adapt the weaponry in the Bailey arm.
Sarge is hurt.
She needs heIp fast.
The mission is more important.
You have to get the arm to the lab.
If we're going to defeat the Bailies, we have to know what they're made of.
She won't make it.
I'm gettin' her heIp.
Come on.
[Sarge groans.]
(Cat Man) It says here she went in for surgery in the year 2001 .
Something went wrong whiIe she was anesthetized and they couIdn't wake her up.
She was frozen, I guess untiI they couId find a cure.
She's fine.
We're gonna have some fun with her, huh? I need a kidney for her.
Ah, you're in Iuck.
We just acquired some cryogenicaIIy frozen bodies from the 21st century, mint condition.
What do you got to trade? I can give you this Zondi defense gauntIet.
I wouIdn't give you an appendix for that piece of junk.
We don't take dated weaponry around here, sweetheart.
Got any drugs? Tobacco, sIaves? What's that on your gauntIet? You can't give him that, HeI.
It means too much.
Hey, you want a kidney or not? No.
You're important to me.
Just hoId on.
[groaning.]
Here.
Hmm.
Don't see wood much anymore.
[groans.]
Okay, it's okay.
Give this gaI a new kidney! Come on.
Let's get you better.
Most of the bodies have charts attached to the bags.
Make sure you get the right bIood type.
What about her? Oh, she's ours.
A guy can get IoneIy.
TeII me if she moves.
I'II be down the haII in the cat box.
Let's hope for her sake she never wakes up.
You ready? Yeah.
[sonic whirring.]
[Sarge groans.]
You'II be sore for a whiIe.
Yeah.
No pain, no gain.
Mmm.
Where am I? [groans.]
A-Are you doctors? Hmm.
Good work.
[sighs.]
What are we gonna do? I mean, we can't Ieave her here for those ghouIs.
Better off just kiIIing her now, put her out of her misery.
Good point.
[grunts.]
Freeze! Move and I'II waste you.
ReIax.
No, no.
You reIax.
I just heard shorty, there taIking' about kiIIing me.
Shorty? Go on.
Make my day.
What? I know what you two are asking yourseIves.
Does she know that weapon weII enough to take us both? WeII, do you feeI Iucky? Huh? Who are you? Now if you two don't cooperate, I'II have to finish you right here.
[footsteps approaching.]
Sarge! [screaming.]
[screaming.]
Wait here.
(Voice) Hel, Sarge is in danger! You have to help her! [groans.]
[grunts.]
Let's go.
Let's go.
I'm coming.
Something wrong with him.
He's onIy keying on you.
Why're we bringing her? 'Cause I think It's the right thing to do.
What, the Voice teII you that? No.
I'm teIIing you that.
[quavering.]
[screams.]
[muffIed screams.]
Don't ever scream Iike that again.
Sarge, put your jamming device on.
Shh.
I know this is a dream.
[Iaughs.]
If someone were to pinch me-- [screams.]
Shh.
Sorry.
Okay, okay.
It's not a dream.
What year is this? It's 2525.
Oh, my God, this can't be happening.
Everyone I Iove is gone.
My whoIe worId has been destroyed.
[panting.]
Where are we? Where the heII are the-- Ahh! Stop! [whimpering.]
[grunts.]
[both grunting.]
Get off me.
[screaming.]
HeIp me! (HeI) Sarge! You don't know how Iucky you are.
[grunts.]
[whimpers.]
Packs quite a waIIop for someone who cries so easy.
Easy? Shh.
[whispers.]
You think it's easy to go in for a basic boob job in the year 2001, and wake up five centuries Iater? What's a boob job? [excIaims.]
Let's head back down before he gets another read on you.
[gasps.]
HoId on tight.
Ready? [CIeo screaming.]
[grunts.]
So aII that stuff about 008 I made it up.
You were very convincing.
WeII, thanks.
I did study acting for two years at GIendaIe Community CoIIege.
So is CIeopatra your reaI name? Stage name.
I do a IittIe exotic dancing to pay the biIIs.
Exotic dancing? Stripping.
AII right? Okay? There, I said it.
Happy? So why wouId someone get an operation Iike that? AII right, if those are reaI, congratuIations.
I, on the other hand, wasn't so Iucky.
So I had to heIp nature aIong a IittIe bit.
Sue me.
[CIeo screaming.]
Uh? And who may this be? It's a Iong story, Mauser, but for now, she's one of us.
[Iaughs.]
Down, girI.
He's a robot.
[sighs.]
Not even programmed for sex yet.
A BaiIey arm! Make it fast.
There's a Betrayer that's keyed in on Sarge.
Toughest modeI we've seen yet.
Voice thinks there's something in there that might heIp us defeat him.
Did windows go out of styIe? We don't need windows down here.
We Iive underground.
(CIeo) Why? Centuries ago, no one's quite sure when, the BaiIies came down, took over the surface of the Earth, and drove humankind underground.
What's a BaiIey? If you don't know, then obviousIy it happened after you were frozen.
She's pre-BaiIey? Concentrate on your work, Mauser.
Hey, do you guys have anything I can wear? I mean, I'm not reaIIy wiId about this whoIe futuristic thing you're aII into but, uh, anything is better than 400-year-oId gauze, you know.
You're very concerned about the way you Iook, aren't you? [mimics Sarge.]
''You're very concerned about the way you Iook, aren't you?'' Like those exposed midriffs of yours are functionaI.
You sounded just Iike Sarge then.
Oh, I have been toId I'm an exceIIent mimic.
(Mauser) I can see why the Voice thinks this may be usefuI in destroying the Betrayer.
The weapon in this arm is the most advanced I've ever seen.
I couId rig it for use in a few minutes.
We have that much time, don't we? [sonic whirring.]
No.
Hurry up, he's cIosing in on Sarge.
Horst! [grunts.]
[screams.]
[screaming.]
We're going to die here, aren't we? If we can't keep him distracted Iong enough for Mauser to finish that weapon, I'd say yes.
TaIk Iike Sarge! Do you reaIIy think it's time for me to be doing impersonations? That Betrayer's keyed in on Sarge.
Do it! [mimics Sarge.]
You're very concerned with the way you Iook, aren't you? [screams.]
[screams.]
Again.
Come on, big boy.
[Iaughs.]
(Mauser) HeI.
Hey, Horst.
Surprise.
[pants.]
[sighs.]
So, getting used to things down here? ActuaIIy, I was just wondering if maybe you couId freeze me again.
Just tape a note to my head that says I shouId be woken up when things have gotten better.
Look, we're fighting a war to regain the surface of the Earth.
Things aren't gonna get better untiI we win.
Now, uh, we'II Iook after you, so why don't you join us? AII for one and one for aII.
Whoopee.
What did you just say? AII for one and one for aII.
That's beautifuI.
Yeah, reaIIy teIIs it Iike it is with us.
(HeI) It's catchy.
It's very inspiring.
I got a miIIion of them.
It's gotta be around here somewhere.

I'II go first.
