Pit Babe (2023) s02e12 Episode Script

Season 2, Episode 12

Marry me.
You've been at Tony's lab long enough.
You must've seen something.
From what I remember,
the shot's linked to Tony's blood.
You've got three days
to bring me Charlie's blood.
I'll get it done.
But you've gotta let Dean and Kenta go.
Alan.
Charlie.
Who are you?
Get the blood to the researchers.
Once they verify it,
you'd better stick to your word.
Release Dean and Kenta.
Get the blood to the researchers.
Make sure it's really Charlie's.
Yes, Sir.
Check it thoroughly.
Because if it's not…
You're dead.
Once they verify it…
It's your turn to keep your word.
Let Dean and Kenta go.
Easy now.
I always mean what I say.
If things go as planned,
when I say I'll release them, I will.
You think Charlie's blood
is worth trading for Dean and Kenta?
There's one more thing
you've gotta do for me.
What?
Do whatever it takes
to make Babe crawl back to me.
No way.
I won't let Babe get dragged
into your dirty game.
You might as well just kill me.
You think you can say no to me?
You have no choice.
You'll never escape my control.
Or are you going to tell the whole team
that you betrayed them yourself?
Tony, Sir.
This blood sample is 100% Charlie's.
Good.
Then…
Let me give you a little reward.
How about I take you
to see that kid in a coma?
Sound good?
Uncle?
Uncle?
Are you in the bathroom?
Where have you been?
You didn't come home last night?
Oh, no.
I woke up early and went out for a run.
A run?
In that outfit?
You can run in anything, right?
Didn't feel like changing again.
You're just in time.
Have you eaten yet?
I haven't prepped anything yet.
- You hungry?
- Yeah.
Then let's eat out today.
Sure. I'll hop in the shower first.
I'll wait downstairs.
Mm.
Don't worry, Charlie.
I'm giving you the full tour today.
I moved in here without Jeff?
Sure did.
You chose to move in yourself.
No one forced you.
And there was a time
I had to come get you back too.
Charlie. Come on.
This is your work corner.
You liked sitting here…
and that's your laptop.
This one's the chill zone.
When you were swamped,
you'd eat right here while working.
And when we first met…
you were working as an editor.
This is the kitchen.
You used to love cooking, Charlie.
Plates go right here.
Bowls and all that… right here.
Spices go here.
And all the kitchen tools go here.
Oh.
Uh…
I don't usually do this stuff.
It's more your thing.
But yeah, around here.
Oh…
Come here.
Whoa.
All these trophies… they're all yours?
Yeah.
To be honest…
they're both ours.
Charlie,
I know you don't remember,
but can I ask for one thing?
Don't call me "Sir."
Call me "Babe."
I just didn't expect…
you… wait…
Babe,
is such a badass racer.
Honestly, I kinda wanna try racing too.
Seems pretty exciting.
Charlie…
You actually are a racer.
And not just any racer… an elite one.
You just don't remember.
Wait…
You're not joking, right, Babe?
I'm not joking.
We met at the racetrack.
Back then, I even taught you how to drive.
And how was I… back then?
Well, back then…
this little puppy Charlie
came running to Babe
bugging me every single day.
If I try this…
maybe it'll jog your memory.
Remember this?
Wanna try them on?
Can I really wear them?
Of course.
This is yours, man.
See, Charlie?
How's it feel?
Did it come back to you?
It's okay.
Wanna go check out something cooler?
Yeah, let's go.
Whoa.
Oh… this is Alan, owner of the garage.
Hi there.
He's also the team leader.
And Jeff's boyfriend.
Jeff's boyfriend.
Hey, Charlie!
You're better now?
Didn't think you'd show up here.
Who's that, Bro?
That's North.
And Sonic.
These two right here…
they're a couple.
Right? Or not yet?
Not yet, Bro.
Babe…
you're actually right.
Sonic and I are officially a thing.
Charlie, meet Sonic… my boyfriend.
Oh, don't listen to him too much.
- Such a show-off.
- Hey, Babe!
And this here…
is the car you always used for training.
Wanna take it for a spin?
Can I really drive it?
Of course.
You're not just messing with me,
about me being a racer?
Wanna try it?
Hop in and see.
Mama…
What did you just say, Charlie?
Mama?
You remembered something?
Remembered what?
Mama.
It just popped into my head.
That's a good sign, Bro.
Charlie's starting to recall things.
Even if his mind forgets,
the body still remembers
what feels familiar.
I just wish he'd remember more.
Hey, Jeff.
Can I sleep over with you tonight?
Oh… sorry, Bro.
I'm not really comfy
sleeping with someone I barely know.
I'd rather sleep with Jeff.
Okay.
Hey, Babe…
You all right, man?
After what Charlie just said?
I'm good, Bro.
He remembered the car he trained in.
I am his boyfriend.
Someday, he'll remember me too.
I'm not giving up.
- Babe.
- Hmm?
Can I ask you something?
If there was a way
to make Charlie remember everything…
would you do it?
Of course I would.
I'd do whatever it takes right now.
Even if it costs my life, I'd do it.
Why?
Do you know how to help Charlie?
Nah.
Just wanted to see what you'd say.
You gotta have hope, man.
Charlie.
You can trust Babe.
He really was your boyfriend.
I'm not lying.
But the way you talked to him,
like he's some stranger…
I think you kinda hurt him.
What do you want me to do?
I seriously can't do it.
But you feel it, right?
Feel what?
Safe.
When you're with him…
do you feel safe?
I know he'd never hurt me.
He's been nothing but kind.
I get that this is hard for you…
but it's hard for Babe too, you know?
You get what I mean, right?
Not really.
But I'll try.
Hey…
you've gotta get your memory back.
Hey, Babe… are you hungry yet?
Charlie…
You don't have to do that, okay?
This house belongs to both of us.
You can just order food.
I don't want you overworking yourself.
I feel like…
I wanna do it for you.
Maybe it's just an old habit, right?
Yeah.
You used to cook for me all the time.
So… why spaghetti?
No idea.
Maybe 'cause you like it, Babe.
How is it?
Taste the same?
Just as good.
Well…
I vaguely remember making it before.
It's like a picture flashed in my head.
And then…
Any other images pop up?
Not yet, I guess.
But I really want to remember more.
You'll help me, right, Babe?
Of course.
I'll help you with everything, Charlie.
Charlie's blood is reacting very well.
It should solve the issue
in our current formula.
Good.
But with the tiny amount of blood we have…
If we could get Charlie himself,
that would be way better.
Then go get him as soon as possible.
But…
if we use too much of Charlie's blood,
will he even survive, Tony?
Just bleed him slowly.
Keep him alive.
Don't let him die.
A resource that valuable?
No way I'm letting it die.
Oh, and…
the new formula you just finished…
who are you gonna test it on?
I've got a test subject
perfect for the job.
Still looking pretty relaxed.
You getting used to this place?
You're really gonna kill me
with your own hands, huh?
I'm not here to kill you.
I'm here to give you one last chance.
Using your formula?
Don't waste your time.
You already know I can't
be your special Alpha.
You never know till you try.
That's why it's called an experiment.
Worst case if it fails…
what do I lose, really?
It's not like I expect you
to grow a conscience or anything.
You get worse every day.
Enough talking.
What are you doing?
The injection's in.
Ten percent.
Twenty percent.
Eighty percent.
Ninety percent.
What do you mean…
you still can't help Kenta and Dean?
Right now, I still can't get them out.
But don't worry, okay?
Dean and Kenta are safe.
I saw them with my own eyes.
What did you see?
Babe…
I saw Dean and Kenta get captured.
Alan…
Where are they?
I went to see Tony.
But I'm not working with him, okay?
Babe…
Just hear me out.
I just wanted to get Dean and Kenta out.
You know what kind of guy Tony is.
He doesn't help people for free.
So what did you trade him?
Charlie's blood.
Are you insane?
He only wanted one vial.
To exchange for Dean and Kenta's release.
I saw the mark behind your ear.
You let them use you
as a test subject, didn't you?
What were you thinking?
Th… That's because…
I didn't want to go through surgery.
And I believed Tony's drug
could make my body better.
I never wanted to exploit Charlie's blood.
I just wanted to get Dean and Kenta out.
Don't worry, Babe.
I started this mess…
I'll be the one to end it.
Alan… Alan!
Uncle!
Uncle, where are you going?
Smells good.
- Pretty heavy.
- Here it is.
I'm back, everyone.
And I need your full support…
in exchange for a deal
you'll never regret.
What the…
How's this even possible?
How the hell is this possible?
Think about it…
if we could give these powers
to the military…
what would happen?
Other abilities…
like hypnosis, mind reading…
would completely transform our world.
This is what will give us
the world in our hands.
All I ask is for your authority…
to make it happen.
And how do we control these people?
Here's your proof.
The project to create special alphas…
has succeeded 100%.
Alpha?
If anyone still doubts it…
you're welcome
to come test it out yourself.
And…
What's your next plan?
I want to launch a free flu vaccine
program for the underprivileged.
A vaccine program?
Anyone here interested in
co-sponsoring it?
Of course.
You drink, Babe?
Someone used to stop me.
That someone's gone now.
Guess I'll have a sip.
Can I be the one to stop you instead?
You know…
we used to have so many plans together.
Now I don't even know
if those chances still exist.
Why are you…
talking like we'll never
be together again?
We will be.
It's just time to make a choice.
CHARLIE CHOTIPREECHA
MAMA
Hey. Your name is Charlie.
You're an Alpha with special abilities.
If you're watching this clip,
it means you've already lost your memory.
Because your body
had too many powers at once.
But no matter what…
you must never forget your mission.
The mission to complete
the skill-dissolving serum.
This serum will be the answer
for all special Alphas…
so they can return to normal lives.
So they have a choice in life again.
And one more thing…
don't ever forget the X-Hunter team.
Alan, Jeff, North, Sonic, Dean, Kim…
and most importantly…
Babe.
No matter what…
you have to protect Babe.
This is the key Way left with Kenta.
Before Kenta got captured,
he passed it to me.
If we can figure out what it unlocks…
we might find an important clue.
This has to be connected to Tony.
Ugh…
Damn, this is complicated… like a movie.
Honestly, I think the power
Jeff left inside Charlie…
could actually help us.
You mean…
you want Charlie to use his vision power
on this key?
Exactly.
I think it's our only shot.
But I don't know if the ability he got…
can even work on objects.
I think the only way to know is to try.
If I ask you to do something…
Will you do it for me?
I just have to hold the key, right?
But you might see things…
get a headache, or feel pain.
Charlie…
I don't want you using your powers.
You might relapse again.
I think Babe's right.
We don't know how much worse
his condition could get.
I don't want Charlie to take that risk.
But if it's the only way…
I wanna give it a try.
Charlie…
It's okay.
Just close your eyes
and focus on it.
Let all your senses kick in.
Where is what I asked for?
I'm not doing what you want.
I'm here today to cancel our deal.
Alan.
You already took the substance.
That means our agreement still stands.
And it can't be undone.
Even a fool would understand that.
You really brought this on yourself, huh?
What's this document?
Let me see it.
This is Tony's special ability
research file.
Wait, so Tony tested it on himself?
No.
Tony was born with this power.
He's got a special ability
no one knew about.
He can resurrect himself.
What?
You think someone ordinary like you…
You think you can actually kill me?
But his resurrection…
it has limits.
Tony has to swallow his own blood
before his pulse stops.
Only then he can come back to life.
But dying still takes a toll.
His body can't fully recover
to 100 percent.
He needs close monitoring.
You came to see Babe?
Charlie, who is it?
Babe, your Daddy is here.
How are you, Son?
What do you want?
What's wrong with Charlie?
None of your business.
If I really wanted to take you guys…
it wouldn't be that hard.
But I'd rather you come back willingly,
out of gratitude for your dad.
Return to me on your own.
The only way I'm going back
is in a body bag.
I thought you might've matured a little.
Think it over.
If you come back to me,
whatever's wrong with Charlie,
my meds can cure him.
- Alan.
- Take Alan, for example.
His body's way stronger now.
Stop.
Got it, my favorite son?
You're the only one who can
save the people you love.
Only Daddy can save them now.
All you and Charlie
have to do is come with me.
Then everyone will be safe.
There's no better deal than this.
I know you're smart, Babe.
You'll come back to Daddy in the end.
Think it over.
Once you're ready,
Daddy will send someone for you.
Alan.
- Alan.
- Hey.
That's Tony, right?
The guy you talked about?
Yeah.
But don't bother with him.
It'll all be over soon.
ANY LUCK CONTACTING ALAN YET, BABE?
What do you mean, Babe?
Tony's guys took your uncle?
Did they grab him when he
went home to get his meds?
He wasn't captured.
Alan walked into Tony's lab himself.
Uncle went to Tony's lab?
Alan made a deal with Tony.
To free Kenta and Dean.
In exchange for…
Charlie's blood.
Wait…
So Dean's still alive?
But Tony has him locked up?
Yeah.
Tony's keeping Dean hostage.
Dean's in a coma right now.
Hanging by a thread.
Tony's using that chance
to corner Alan into giving in.
He knows Uncle loves his boys.
Of course he'd risk it all to save Dean.
So the time Uncle disappeared…
he wasn't off
getting treated at some hospital.
He went to see Tony, right?
Yeah.
He didn't get treated or anything.
He got injected with Tony's
skill-enhancing serum.
And now…
he's stronger than any normal guy.
I'm sorry, man, for not telling you.
I'm not mad at you, Bro.
I'm just upset.
That something this huge,
you couldn't tell me about it.
If I had to guess,
I'd say Alan did it
to keep you safe, Jeff.
He wanted to handle it all himself,
so no one else would get hurt.
Jeff…
You know how much Uncle loves us.
He loves everyone in X-Hunter.
Don't be mad at him, okay?
So…
What do we do now?
It looks like Tony's already
moving on to his next plan.
Free flu vaccine campaign?
Yeah.
It's a rushed project
that just popped up out of nowhere.
So I looked into it.
Turns out a bunch of Tony's
politician allies are behind it.
They're the ones running the whole thing.
That's Lab D-One's logo.
I saw it in Tony's lab files before.
So Tony's plan…
he's gonna use enhancing serums
instead of vaccines?
Exactly.
He might even use it to chip
and control people on a massive scale.
Just like he did with Alan and Willy.
Then we've gotta take Tony down,
before the vaccination event happens.
But how are we gonna stop him?
He's got the upper hand in everything.
We can do it.
We just need backup.
You missed me that much
you made up a reason to see me?
Does your boyfriend know?
Mind your business.
Charlie's got nothing to do with this.
You've known about Tony's
vaccine project all along, haven't you?
So what if I have?
What's it got to do with me?
Everything.
I want to help you stop him.
You gonna let him do
to others what he did to you?
You can stop him, Willy.
Thanks, Babe.
CHARLIE AND I WILL WORK FOR DADDY,
BUT HE HAS TO LET THE OTHERS GO.
Winner.
I've got a job for you.
What's up, my G?
Tie him up.
- Babe.
- Charlie.
- Stay still.
- Babe.
I said stay still.
Let me go, Babe.
Go.
Get in.
Get in.
What's your answer, Babe?
Hope it won't disappoint Daddy.
That's enough, Tony.
This ends today.
I told you before…
I'd never leave you.
Charlie.
Hey.
Other than Charlie,
you're my whole world, Uncle.
