Moonrise (2025) s01e18 Episode Script

[gunshot]
[breathes shakily]
[Mary groans softly]
[tense music plays]
[shudders]
[Mary] Rhys.
[Wise] L-Zone is getting excited.
I wonder what fireworks
are about to start.
Mary!
Rhys!
- [Rhys] Don't look.
- [Jack gasps]
Please don't look at me.
I shot Mary.
[tense music builds]
[groans]
- Mary!
- Jack.
Phil. I'm so sorry.
Now run.
[grunts]
[high-pitched tone drones]
[tone fades]
[breathes shakily]
[ominous music plays]
[grunts]
Mary!
[grunts]
[music stops]
[dramatic music plays]
[grunts]
What was that? What the hell is going on?
[Wise] Retreat! I said we're retreating!
Well, what will you do now,
our dear King of the Moon?
[dramatic music continues]
- [soldier 1] Run!
- [soldier 2] What is that?
[music stops]
The fulfillment of humankind's dreams
on the Abaddon.
We are winning.
We have no need for useless bloodshed.
[woman] You mean L-Zone?
Its special powers
are being able to take over
any being's body that it desires,
and change it like our E2 material.
It can be a useful weapon to us.
Yes, but nothing will go
as the Moon Chains have planned.
Terraforming is unnecessary.
The overpopulated Earth depends on it.
Nothing on the planet can be spared.
[Osma] What the hell happened?
This is bad. Something is very wrong.
The L-Zone is red now?
[Harbinger] Something must have
happened to Mary.
[Phil] My sweet Mary.
Where did it take you?
[Rhys whimpers]
Your hand.
Implement Engrave!
[Phil] Jack!
Are you all right?
Phil!
Yeah, somehow.
Georg.
I'll leave Rhys to you.
On it.
[beeping]
What is that?
What does it want?
[uneasy music plays]
- I think it might be trying to evolve.
- Huh?
Oh, shit.
[Jack gasps]
Mary.
What the hell are you two doing?
[tense music plays]
You must go, Jacob!
[exhales]
Save our Mary.
And you have to save the Moon!
[inhales]
You're right. We're not finished.
I can't let it end like this.
- [Salamandra] Phil!
- [gasps]
She needs you too. Same for you, Whiz.
Jack, let's move!
[music fades]
Ja Jack?
[sputters]
I have to leave again.
Rest assured, Major, I'll come back.
[exciting music plays]
Hm.
Please do.
Georg, promise me you'll look after Rhys.
[Georg] You know I will.
[dramatic music plays]
Come on, Jack! Let's hurry!
Seems we've already served our purpose.
[gentle music plays]
Guess we failed our mission
one too many times.
[chuckles] And you seem
to be back to your old self again.
[uplifting music plays]
L-Zone has absorbed Mary
and is running wild.
Something resembling its core
has been sighted at Copernicus.
- Harbinger! Windy! Do you copy?
- [Harbinger] Yeah.
We've got eyes on it from here.
[Salamandra] Good to know
you're still safe.
- Link up to our channel, you two.
- [both] Huh?
[Windy] Yeah, I see we've got
a few uninvited guests here too!
The SEED3 are way more aggressive.
They're also blocking our escape routes.
Listen, everyone. Phil and Jacob
are heading your way now.
So I have a favor to ask.
[dramatic music plays]
[music stops]
[tense music plays]
[dramatic music plays]
These things are everywhere!
At this rate, we'll run out of energy
before we get there.
Hey, Wise!
[Wise] You're asking for the impossible.
We're quite busy with guests too.
My sincerest apologies.
Bang!
[tense music plays]
No, no, you idiot!
He's gonna get us killed!
[dramatic music plays]
It's responding!
Jack, look! Right by the elevator.
Okay, let's go!
Here we go. Hold on tight!
[music stops]
Jack is on his way.
It's about time!
Now I gotta do something
about those cute little robots.
Everyone, please back me up.
I need your help!
- Go, Jack! Whiz-B!
- On it!
[dramatic music plays]
[engine revs]
[gasps]
Thank you both, my friends.
[Jack] Phil, look up!
This is bad.
[gasps]
I hope there's a place on Earth
that'll still welcome us after this.
Do what you need to!
Go! Don't worry,
I'll complain about you later!
Sure! Thanks, Osma.
[dramatic music continues]
Zowan!
I know, I know!
Almost there.
Just a little more. [gasps]
I'm awesome!
Let's do this!
All the SEED3s are down!
Remind me to say thank you.
[dramatic music continues]
Jack, go!
I'll leave Mary to you.
Take it down!
[Jack yells]
Mary!
[music fades]
Be safe, Jack.
[gasps]
Mary!
Please, come back to me.
[gurgling]
[gasps]
[serene music plays]
[exhales]
Jack?
[exhales]
Let's go home, Mary.
[chuckles softly]
[music stops]
[Clemenza gasps]
What is that?
And what happens next?
[eerie music plays]
[music fades]
[Wise] This is the end of our show.
Or better yet,
maybe it's the prologue
to our next chapter.
[gentle music plays]
[Jack] We failed.
I'm sorry. Despite all our best efforts,
we couldn't restore nature to the Moon.
But I
For some reason,
I feel pretty hopeful right now.
I get it.
- [Mary groans]
- [Phil gasps]
[sighs]
[breathes gently]
- Mary!
- Mary!
[Mary] Phil?
Jack?
I don't know
[Phil] It's okay.
The L-Zone that took you has died,
causing chaos on the Moon.
But now we can figure out a new plan.
We'll fix it. Trust me.
Mm.
- [gasps]
- [Whiz-B beeps]
Whiz!
Come here! [laughs]
Whiz-B! That tickles! [laughs]

[uplifting music plays]
NEVADA
JOINT ARMY HEADQUARTERS
You have my sympathies.
It's a shame, really.
I'd just climbed up the ranks.
Ironic, isn't it?
Well, with this,
I can say goodbye to days of humiliation.
Excuse me. Commander Clemenza, sir,
if I may ask,
what do you think will happen to Phil?
[Clemenza] Ex-Commander,
if you wouldn't mind.
But I don't know.
What happens to him is something
we might never get answers to.
[Rhys] So, that's it?
[Clemenza] Yes.
What about you? What's next?
[Rhys] As for me,
I also want to move on somehow.
[music fades]
[man] Suppose we left revitalization
to a SEED.
Setting free the SEED army
would reduce resources Earth needs
from the Moon's people.
It would spread the war to Earth,
running the risk of it contributing
to a more progressive agenda.
Perhaps it didn't go according to plan,
but it's not a total loss.
Then there is the issue at hand
that Sapientia wants us to deal with.
SEED2.
Better yet, Bob Skylum, was it?
Let me ask you something, sir.
Does that AI hate all humankind?
[Landry] You could choose
to see it that way.
I prefer to look at the ways
humankind has failed it.
Managing a population of 15 billion people
has taken an enormous toll on Sapientia.
And that's the reason why
this genocide that's gone on
so much longer than needed will continue.
[Landry] Unlike the intentional genocides
that humankind perpetuates,
collateral damage is unavoidable.
And when we finally put you away,
it will all have been worth it.
That's the pact we have with it.
[laughs]
Finally, you are within my reach.
And to think it was you who came to me!
[all gasp]
These butterflies are SEED.
A gift I inherited from my father.
What do you mean?
We're to believe this was your plan?
Yes. All part of a plan
that led us to this moment!
[screeching tone]
[serene music plays]
[Phil] Jack,
I leave the new world
in your hands.
SOME TIME LATER
THE JOINT ARMY
WAS EFFECTIVELY DISBANDED
WITHOUT SAPIENTIA'S CONTROL
THE EARTH ENTERED
AN ERA OF GREAT CHAOS
AND THEN
[music fades]
COPERNICUS CITY
THREE MONTHS LATER
[game beeps]
[Mary] Jack!
Hey.
The wind feels warmer today, right?
Mm-hmm. I hope the wind blows
in the right direction.
Are you nervous?
Because you don't really
look like you are.
I don't?
Sorry to disappoint, but I am nervous.
Mm-hmm?
Well, good. It's time.
[Whiz-B beeps]
[sighs]
[Jack] So, just when will I be able
to go back to Earth?
What are you guys doing?
- Huh?
- [Windy] Why don't you go back to Earth?
You're so annoying!
[Zowan] Hey, that's not
very hospitable of you.
- [Windy] Ugh!
- [Zowan] Come on, get over it.
[jaunty music plays]
[Zowan] Hm?
On second thought.
Have you two met?
- [music stops]
- Terrifying.
I'm, uh, sorry about your boss.,
It seems like
he put on quite the show.
You're right. Feels like he's still here.
Hm?
[people mutter]
[gasps]
[man 1] Wait a minute!
- [man 2] What's going on?
- [woman] Who is he?
[man 3] Who is that?
- [man 4] Wise Crowne is behind him.
- [man 5] What's he gonna say?
Silence!
[uplifting music plays]
I'm, Jacob Shadow.
I came from Earth to get revenge.
Bob Skylum died fighting in this war.
No. The person calling himself Bob.
He passed the symbol of "Bob"
to me before leaving.
- [man 1] What does he mean?
- [man 2] There's no way that happened.
So the Moon no longer has a king.
And we don't need one!
From now on, the Moon is governed
by the Moon's citizens.
That's why today is the day
that the idea of a king ends.
I want us to make the Moon
a place the Earth envies.
I hope you'll join me.
And that you'll help make that a reality.
That's what my new vengeance is all about.
Let's show everyone
that there won't be another war
between the Moon and the Earth!
Moonrise!
["Moon River" plays]
[crowd] Moonrise! Moonrise!
Moonrise! Moonrise! Moonrise!
Moonrise! Moonrise! Moonrise!
Moonrise! Moonrise! Moonrise!
Well done.
Peace isn't something
you can just will into existence, right?
You gotta be brave
and ready to fight to make it happen.
I'll be there to back you up.
[crowd] Moonrise! Moonrise!
So thank you, Jack.
Together we can show them
the Moon we all want.
["Moon River" continues]
[music fades]
[device chimes]
Huh?
[gasps]
Hm.
[gentle ballad plays]
