Flying Lessons

CooI.
Mad cooI! [imitating firing.]
Don't go thinking you're invincibIe.
It's just a web Iauncher.
Are you ready for this? Give me a minute.
[sighs.]
[inhaIes.]
What are you doing? CIeansing breath.
[exhaIes.]
It's part of my positive visuaIization technique.
ReaIIy? VisuaIize this.
[screaming.]
HeIp me! No rescue this time.
You want to hang with us, you fIy with us.
[excIaims.]
[Jinasta screams.]
(Jinasta) Don't Iet them take me! Uh.
HeIp me! (ThuseI) Don't take her! Daddy! Ready to try your web Iauncher? Here goes nothing.
Let me go! [Jinasta screams.]
[Jinasta groans.]
Jinasta! Incompetent fooIs! [Jinasta screams.]
Watch out! That girI's in troubIe! (Jinasta) HeIp me! [groans.]
There they are! Let's get them! [CIeopatra screaming.]
Do you know these guys? They're shooting at us.
That's aII I need to know.
We got to Iet them pass us.
Reverse! Reverse? How do we reverse? [panting.]
AII cIear.
I think we got most of them.
Yeah, but they got the girI.
(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's 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 ## We took out the better part of their forces.
I don't think they'II bother you again.
You don't understand.
These men were Mordecis.
Mordecis? Mutants from the Iower IeveIs.
They come up here to harvest specimens to seII to the mutant experimentaI Iabs.
She'd be better off dead.
Oh, it's not that bad.
You've got the three of us on the case now.
You mean you can get her back? Of course, we can.
No, we I'm sorry, it's a terribIe Ioss.
Being a hero isn't just saying, ''I'm sorry.
'' Who said we were heroes? WeII, not me.
ReaI heroes wouIdn't be afraid to heIp this man.
Okay, maybe ''afraid'' was the wrong choice of words.
My bad.
But this is stiII wrong.
It's not wrong.
We'II never retake the surface if we stop every five minutes to pIay hero.
Yeah, we get enough of that with you.
Come on.
This isn't about me.
Where I come from, or when I came from, whatever, the good guys heIped out peopIe in troubIe.
We are the good guys, aren't we? Ask not what others can do for you, but what you can do for others.
That's beautifuI.
You're not gonna ignore a pIea Iike that, are you? Do you think of this stuff beforehand or do you just make it up as you go? It aII comes from the heart.
AII right.
Let's do it.
Let's kick some mutant butt! Right! We'II get her back! Don't you worry! Now aII we need is a pIan! That's right, team, we're-- [CIeo screaming.]
No promises.
But we'II do our best.
[mutants chattering.]
##[music playing.]
No weapons or armor in the bar.
[machine whirring.]
You're cIean.
What have you got to hide? [machine whirring.]
[beeping.]
The scanner says you stiII got a weapon there.
Think I'II have to do a manuaI search.
Maybe Iater.
Nice.
[machine whirring.]
Go on.
Thanks.
##[music continues playing.]
[peopIe chattering.]
[moaning.]
HeI, it's been a whiIe.
[grunting.]
[mutant excIaiming.]
[buzzing.]
Too bad, Bet.
But he'II seII you to a standard mutant Iab.
At Ieast I taught you something about breeding with mutants because that's aII you'II be doing.
WeII, surprised to see you here.
CouIdn't stay away.
What have you got to pIay for? Check it out.
[beeping.]
There she is.
Good.
What, no boys? Say, are you in? I'm pIayin'.
That means she's in the hoIding ceII with the other specimens.
Now aII we have to do is get her out.
CIeo, you're on.
Sweetheart, you're doin' it aII wrong.
[music stops.]
[mutants booing.]
It's caIIed striptease.
Emphasis on the ''tease.
'' And what do you think this poIe is doing here? HoIding up the bar? CIear me.
Give me some room.
That's right.
[tongue cIicking.]
Showtime, boys.
# I know just where this is goin' # # Can't you feel the music blowin' # # Come on, baby, I know you want to dance with me # This shouId be good.
# Come on, don't be so uptight # # I assure you I don't bite # # I can't wait to turn off all the lights # # Slide on over next to me # # Got you sized up to a tee # # 'Cause the oldest profession # # just took on a whole new dimension with me # # There are a hundred different ways to go # So she went to schooI for that, then.
# It doesn't matter long as we can take it real slow # # 'Cause you can't escape the simple fact # # Got the power to make your blood react # # till your head is spinnin' around # WeII, whatever you caII it, it's working.
# Come pick it now ## Happy birthday, Mr.
Mutant.
[music stops.]
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
[aII appIauding.]
Oh, yeah! AII right! Thank you! [whooping.]
So, who wants to pIay me for her? [aII whooping.]
[aII excIaiming.]
Too bad.
No one couId puII off that move.
You want to foId out? FoId out? [scoffs.]
I'II doubIe the bet.
What are you doing? WeII, it's good to meet someone with the, uh, the crystaIs to go for it.
Let's doubIe.
(mutant) Okay, okay! That's it! Come on! Any takers? [giggIes.]
Good.
[buzzing.]
[girIs Iaughing.]
You keep pIaying Iike this, you'II own the whoIe IeveI.
Hey, it's getting crowded around this tabIe.
Why don't we send your specimen to the hoIding room with the others.
No.
You Iet your specimens speak for you? OnIy when they know my mind.
And I wouId Iike this one to stay.
Thanks.
I owe you one.
Whoo! A round of drinks for everyone at the tabIe.
On me.
So, what are you doing after the game? Depends on who owns me.
Oh, it'II be HeI.
She better be carefuI.
These peopIe don't Iike to Iose.
[peopIe chattering.]
This is bad.
He couId ruin everything.
Don't worry.
I've got it covered.
Excuse me, bartender.
What can I do for you? Daddy! [excIaims.]
I toId you and Mommy not to worry about me.
Look, you have to get out of here now.
We have a pIan.
But if you say anything, you couId ruin it.
So you trust this woman, this HeI? With my Iife.
AII right.
You know, I beIieve they may have just sIipped some juice into her gobIet.
She's a big girI.
She can handIe it.
AII taken care of.
Good.
Good.
Oh, by the way, whiIe you were gone, I Iost you both.
Ah.
He was putty in my hands.
Got aII freaked out about them putting some juice into HeI's cup.
I don't know.
''Juice'' is a nickname for a resistance inhibitor.
It inhibits resistance to what? Love.
An aphrodisiac? Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Yeah! [Iaughs.]
Oh, no! Houston, we have a probIem.
Who's Houston? Are you pIaying or what? Oh, I'm pIayin'! [Iaughing.]
[whooping.]
I bet she figured out they were putting juice in her gIass and switched.
What are you taIking about? Look how she's behaving.
(CIeo) It's very common among amateurs.
She's way over the top.
I can teII.
She's acting.
(mutant) Oh, dear.
Bad roII.
What a shame.
[Iaughing.]
That's a Ioser for sure! [Iaughs.]
But, you know, I aIways Iike to keep things interesting.
Don't you? Why not? Bet aII your specimens.
AII of them.
[exhaIes.]
I'm out.
Bye-bye.
And what are you gonna put up? Hmm.
Oh.
My sweet, sweet seIf.
[buzzing.]
I'm in.
Good.
[aII chattering.]
(HeI) Your turn.
[inhaIes.]
[buzzing.]
[girIs Iaughing.]
Give me five! ReIease aII the specimens! [peopIe whooping.]
Jinasta! (Jinasta) Daddy! Daddy! It's so good to see you! Oh, my IittIe girI! Are you okay? Oh! Did you reaIIy think we were gonna Iet you waIk away with your winnings? You up-worIders are so naive.
We can stiII take them.
They had to check their weapons at the door, too.
[grunts.]
[Iaughs.]
They bribed me.
Watch out! [mutant grunting.]
[screams.]
Hey.
[aII chattering.]
Oh, Daddy! We saved them because it was the right thing to do.
Doesn't it feeI great? Yeah.
I guess.
You know what? Let's go find us some reaI men.
[Iaughs.]
AII right! Mad coId! Mad cooI.
Yeah, whatever.
Hey, HeI, you got any more of that juice?
