Krypton (2018) s02e10 Episode Script

The Alpha and the Omega

Now I believe the best of Krypton lies within the blood of the Els.
Brainiac is gone and so is our son.
I will raze the universe before giving up on Jor.
The Black Mercy, it creates an alternate reality in the mind of its host.
My son, he created a clone.
Somatically reconditioned her to his ideology.
General Zod deceived you.
Sagitari Thur, he is not worthy of your loyalty.
How may we serve? The colonization of alien planets is our future.
Kneel.
There will not be a soul left on Wegthor.
We have to get off this moon.
Get all of our troops and every civilian available onto that ship.
I can't I can't feel my legs.
If I don't stop Doomsday, countless people will die.
You can't save everyone, Seg.
Others have to step up.
The Stellarium! Seg and Kem must've managed to detonate it.
Now we've got to get out of here.
Where's Seg? General, engines are primed for jump speed.
Awaiting your instructions.
Set a course, Captain, for sector 2814 and its Sol System.
Which of its worlds should we target first? Send word to the fleet to prepare for the conquest of Earth.
Initiate interstellar jump.
The people of Kandor are concerned.
Our Sagitari on the ground are reporting unrest and fear.
They are looking for answers.
They want to know how this could happ Where are the surviving Rebels now? Not sure.
We've been unable to reach them since we lost Wegthor.
And the Stellarium? Is it salvageable? Is there at least enough to fuel the interstellar fleet? Open my communication line.
Val-El.
You survived.
- I'm not the only one.
- Good, because I intend to savor the eradication of every last Rebel.
Enough! Your time to talk is done, Dru.
No more threats.
No more deals.
Give yourself up now or we will come for you and we will end your reign.
You can't be serious.
Your willingness to weaponize Doomsday against your fellow Kryptonians proved, with finality, what you truly are.
What I truly am is Krypton's last chance at sustaining our civilization.
You're delusional! You will never be Krypton's savior, Dru, because you are already its undoing.
I suggest you land my ship swiftly and hide well because I intend to use every resource, every Sagitari, and weapon on Krypton to hunt your Rebellion down.
We welcome the attempt.
Asshole.
Ow! You couldn't have done that in the half I can't feel? Oh, shit How are you doing? Well, these Kryptonian sedatives are a party, so that's one perk of being paralyzed.
Never walk again but I think I can see sound.
You will walk again, Adam.
Val's not gonna stop until he finds a way.
There was a time I would've gone back, damn, with this and hit the undo button on what happened to me.
You still could.
No, this little dick-puncher comes with consequences.
The universe-ending kind.
How did you get that? It was given to me by this inventor named Sardath.
You know, dude's so smart he could tutor Val.
I mean, there is nothing about space-time he doesn't know.
So where is Sardath now? My guess he's on his home planet Rann.
Hell of a planet.
Unparalleled technology.
It was kind of the Zeta-Beam's default destination, so I got to know it pretty well and his daughter, Alanna.
That was a long time ago, so Maybe Sardath could help you travel through time without disrupting Sardath's not gonna help me do anything, okay? He kind of, um, forbade the Zeta-Beam from ever being equipped for time travel.
Didn't want someone just bouncing around through time willy-nilly.
Wait, you modified that thing for time travel.
It was a slight tweak.
I just slipped it into the settings.
But I'm done with Rann and through meddling with time and I've caused enough damage.
I have to live with my choices now.
I understand more than you know, Adam.
Thought you didn't like to drink? I've never seen a day that warranted it until this one.
To those we've lost.
And those we've found.
If Seg, Val, Nyssa are all really dead the three of us are the last of the Resistance.
If anyone is to overthrow Dru-Zod, it's us.
We nearly did it last time.
It'd be A suicide mission, Dev.
We just got Lyta back and we've lost so much already.
We've lost nothing.
Dru-Zod has taken everything from us and will keep doing so unless we act.
There's no one left, Jayna.
Dev All we have now is each other.
I know.
.
Hey, I just woke up.
It sounded like there were explosions in the distance and I saw meteorites burning in the sky.
Please, someone tell me what's happened.
Scan again for any active frequencies.
Hello? Anyone hear me? Look, if there's anyone still on this frequency, - this is Seg-El.
- Seg? - I'm coming in.
- Seg! - Is that you? - Grandpa? Can you hear me? We got you, Seg.
Where are you? Well, if this skimmer doesn't break up on reentry, I'm headed to the Outlands.
I'll probably set down somewhere outside New Lurvan.
I'm sending you my coordinates now.
Locking onto your coordinates.
We'll meet up with you there.
Oh, my boy, it's great to hear your voice.
Yours, too.
And Adam and Nyssa? I'm here.
We're all here, Seg, because of you and Kem.
Kem's dead.
He didn't make it.
Seg, I'm I'm so sorry.
Doomsday ambushed us in the tunnels.
Kem sacrificed himself for Krypton.
We were all he had.
Well, then he will be forever remembered as part of House El.
Brother to Seg-El.
I I'll see you in New Lurvan.
Damn.
Hey.
Nyssa? Careful with that.
Press the wrong thing and who knows where you might end up? Like Rann, for instance.
Nyssa, what's going on? I'm going to find Sardath.
Hey, hey.
No, no, no.
You can't! Val! What's going on? Wegthor is gone, and along with it, so is Krypton's entire Stellarium supply.
The Zeta-Beam can transport me across the universe to wherever Brainiac has my son.
Nyssa, you don't even know how to use that thing.
The landing alone can You've already told me everything I need to know about it.
You played me? Oh, come on! I had to.
Brainiac is still out there somewhere and I cannot rest until I find him.
I can't wait any longer.
Nyssa, please, think about what you're doing! There is no other way, Val.
Tell Seg I'm sorry.
Nyssa.
No! That wasn't so bad.
All right, Adam, let's hope you know what you're talking about.
So all of Wegthor is gone? I'm sorry, Lyta.
No.
Seg's still alive.
I know it.
He and I, we we only just found each other again.
What about the rebels? Then we have no choice.
We end Dru's reign tonight once and for all.
It won't be that easy, Lyta.
Even if we find him, Dru is still your son.
If what you're telling me is true and Dru deployed Doomsday on Wegthor, on Seg Then he is not my son.
I'm in.
The way I see it, nothing changes unless we change it.
Then I know better than anyone not to stand in your way.
What would you have us do, Primus? Dru thinks that we're going to sit and wait for him.
He doesn't think that we have the numbers to breach Kandor and attack head on.
He'd be right.
We don't.
No, but he only knows what we've lost.
He doesn't know what we've gained.
Which is what? Inside support from the Sagitari.
News that I'm alive has spread amongst them thanks to Sagitari Thur and Pline, and they have reported that support for Dru is wavering in Kandor.
That doesn't guarantee us access to Zod.
Fort Rozz is locked up too tight.
I didn't say the plan was perfect, but if we can't get to Dru, then maybe we can lure him out and then use our Sagitari to separate and isolate him from his loyalists.
The only way we can draw Zod out is with rebel forces.
How are we gonna fake an entire army? I wouldn't worry about that.
Seems our army just arrived.
Seg.
General.
What is it? The ship containing Wegthor Rebels has been located in the Outlands.
Recon teams report it abandoned.
We're searching for them now.
Have you any idea where they've gone? Storms have eliminated the tracks, but our heat scanners are continuing I wasn't speaking to you.
Sagitari Thur, you heard the Commander.
Your Rebel allies have arrived and your traitorous exercise has been exposed.
Now I will let you keep your life, if you tell me where they have gone.
Tell me where they New Lurvan! Primus-Zod is in New Lurvan.
If the Rebels go anywhere, it'll be there.
Thank you, Sagitari Thur.
Send your men to New Lurvan.
Kem always did have to have the last word.
Stupid idiot.
He was a good soldier.
With a kind heart.
He was the best mate that I could ask for.
Krypton without him is going to laugh a hell of a lot less.
Here's to you, brother.
We'll never forget you.
Did you see him? Doomsday.
I saw it.
It tore through Wegthor Through that stronghold Like it was made of sand.
I looked into its eyes and I saw no compassion, no empathy.
Just rage, hate.
I saw that, too, in Dru, before he subjected me to the Black Mercy.
He's lost, Seg.
And we have to stop him, Lyta, by any means necessary.
We have a plan.
It's in motion.
But it's going to take all of us.
Where's Nyssa? Adam, have you seen Nyssa? What do you need? Please let me help you.
Where am I? Is this Rann? What are you trying to say? What's up there? Okay.
All right.
You're fine.
Hey, uh, Val, Val.
Now, listen.
Come on.
Don't bench me.
Put a blaster in my hand.
Just point me towards the bad guys, you'll see.
I got plenty of ass-kicking left in me.
Adam, you've helped enough.
Just give the others time to devise a strategy and then well, then we'll see how we can best fit you in.
Adam, you really have done more than enough for us.
I wasn't doing it all for you.
Krypton's my home now, too.
You and Seg, I mean, damn it, you may as well be my family.
I mean, you're more of one than I ever knew anyway.
You know back in Detroit on Earth, people didn't stick around much.
My, uh, my mom, she died giving birth to me like it was the goddamn middle ages or something.
And my pops well, he never let me forget that, but we didn't have much in common except for baseball.
That's a sport.
Tigers fans for life.
The truth is I didn't think I'd amount to anything.
Then I met you guys.
And now that Nyssa's legged it with my Zeta-Beam, there's precisely jack shit I can do about it.
I'm kinda stuck here whether I like it or not.
You put your life on the line for me.
- Yeah.
- My family.
For all of Krypton.
And I promise you, I will do everything in my power to make it up to you.
As you already know, Zod's forces are hunting us.
The destruction of Wegthor took out his Stellarium supply.
That was his only way to expand his war to other worlds.
We left him bleeding.
If we want to end this, we need to strike now.
While Zod was deploying Doomsday, I was laying groundwork with a network of dissenters within Fort Rozz, Sagitari who are loyal to me and are tired of Zod's deceit.
With them, we can win.
We can gain access to Zod.
That'll be one of them now.
- Primus! - Sagitari Pline, what's No time.
We've been compromised.
Sagitari Thur has been captured.
General Zod knows.
- Well, what does he know? - Everything.
- Get her out of there.
- Pline, lay low.
Find some place to hide and we can help It's too late.
Pline! If Dru-Zod is going to bring his war to New Lurvan, we need to dig in here.
Prepare ourselves and make an all-out stand.
He'll send multiple regiments.
They'll outnumber us five to one and then they'll pin us down at the bridge.
We don't know that for sure.
Maybe they Yes, we do, Seg, because that is exactly what I would do and I taught Dru everything.
Then we take Zod.
Think about it.
He's made a massive tactical error sending this many Sagitari here.
He's isolated himself, which is exactly what we wanted.
Now Fort Rozz will still be impenetrable, but Kandor? Kandor itself will be left relatively unguarded.
If we can keep Zod's forces engaged here in New Lurvan then I can get to him in Kandor.
I have to at least try.
It might be our only chance.
We'll need to establish a perimeter around the Outpost and take out as many Sagitari as we can in open field combat.
There are civilians here we need to keep safe.
Rondor piss! We don't need protection.
We're in this fight now, like it or not.
We don't, but we can't keep hiding and expect you to fix everything for us.
Time we did our bit as well.
Would I be right in thinking you have a stash of weapons here? We're going to need them.
All of them.
Zod! Come out here! Enough Kryptonian blood has been spilt.
It's time for this madness to end! You know who I am.
You all know that Dru-Zod is my son.
So believe me when I tell you that Zod's rule is built on lies.
He controls you all through Somatic Reconditioning and I have proof.
I have seen his detention centers overflowing with those who dared to speak out.
I have seen his barbaric Somatic Reconditioning chambers.
He is taking from you the very thing that makes you Kryptonian Your spirit, your will, your individuality.
Sagitari forces have reached the perimeter.
Move out! Let's go! Stand your ground! What exactly did you hope to achieve here? Hmm? You thought I'd let you just walk into the city that I rebuilt, stand before these people I raised up, and try to tear me down? These people, they only follow you 'cause of what you've done to their minds.
Not through their own free will.
You think they will believe you over me, their savior? It's not me they have to believe.
I am Primus Lyta-Zod! The person you saw die was an impostor, one General Zod could bend to his will.
He replaced me because I refused to follow him down his destructive path.
Because I dreamed of a better future for all of us.
A life free of war and the endless cycle of violence.
A life where we have the freedom to make our own choices.
I have seen what happens when you enjoy your freedom of choice.
I have lived that future and I saw Krypton choose its own self-destruction.
Every decision I make is for one singular purpose To save Krypton! The survival of our people is the only thing that matters.
You're wrong.
There is a difference between surviving and living and what you are offering us, Dru it's not good enough.
Arrest these two and execute anyone who even thinks about objecting.
Arrest them yourself, General.
New orders.
Execute Commander Dahl and then take these two away.
It's over, Dru.
Surrender.
Call off your forces in New Lurvan.
You've lost your mind if you think I will kneel before you or anyone.
Yeah.
I figured you'd say something like that.
General, would you care to step outside? You think you are him? You think you are the Man of Steel? You are no Superman.
You are nothing.
- Seg! - No, Lyta! You're right, General.
I'm nobody in particular.
So how does it feel that you're going to lose it all to powerless, ordinary old me? Well, this isn't over.
Well done, Mother.
I'm not your mother.
Not anymore.
- Fire! - Turret on our flank! General Zod, it's time you kneel before Kandor.
Never! Seg.
Seg, stop.
Seg, Seg, stop! Come on! Come on, stop! Seg! Call off all forces from New Lurvan.
All Regiments abort.
I repeat, abort.
New Lurvan is no longer the enemy.
Fall back! Fall back! They are retreating! He's never gonna stop ever.
Not even the Phantom Zone could hold him.
I know, but it doesn't have to end this way.
We are proud of you, son.
You've saved us all.
You've saved Krypton.
You're a hero, Dru.
How long can we keep him like this? As long as we need to.
As long as it keeps Krypton safe.
Got to hand it to ya, I never thought I'd see the day I'd respect a Zod.
And I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be happy to see your face, but here we are.
This calls for my best stash! - There you are.
- Val, you're not celebrating? No thanks, but I have good news to report.
We picked up heat signatures near the impact zone of a large meteorite cluster.
Is it possible? More survivors? Well, we don't know for sure, but, uh, Wegthorns are a resourceful people, so I'm hopeful.
We'll take a look right away then.
I'll show you the coordinates.
Oh, finally! Did you get lost or something? I thought I was gonna die alone in here.
What? Why are you looking at me like that? I have something for you, Adam.
I think you're gonna like it.
Base, we've finished our sweep.
Perimeter is clear.
Headed back to camp.
Jayna! It can't be.
Grandpa? Grandpa.
Grandpa, you all right? I beg your pardon.
Grandpa, you're a little drunk? Well, yes, Seg.
I am drunk.
Uh, but that doesn't mean that I I'm not drunk.
Clearly.
Come on, we'll get you inside.
Come on.
There you go.
This way now.
- Hey.
- Hey! Look at you, man! Look at this! Look, hey, Val made me legs! Hey, uh, braces.
He made me leg braces.
You all right? Anyway, look.
Hey, I can walk! It's a goddamn Christmas miracle.
Anyway, that's beside the point.
I got a jetpack.
- You know what that means.
- Tell me, Adam.
It means I can fly, bitches! Val, I still can't feel my legs! Classy.
Lobo put the weapon down.
Whatever you say, Seagull.
Wow.
I know, right? Good for you.
Thank you.
Grew it meself.
I did mean the other weapon.
Oh yeah, of course.
How'd you get to Krypton? What do you want? The "how" isn't as important as the "why.
" You see, word on the interstellar street is get a load of this.
The Green Gooch that you were supposed to deliver to me back on that shit-stain, Cullou "Colu.
" - Colu.
- Excuse me.
What? Planet, it's a planet.
Colu.
- Whatever.
- Sure.
Brainiac, he's still alive.
- Which got me thinking - No, we thought we- See, we thought we did deliver him The Main Man is talking.
Why are you interrupting? Nobody interrupts the Main Man when he's talking.
Your job is to stand there, look pretty, and listen as I explain how you are going to help me.
Me help you? - Yes.
- Why would I help you? Last time we were in a room together, you tried to kill me and Adam.
Come on, Seagull, that was in the past, man.
I mean, look at Legs over there.
He's over it.
Ain't you, Legs? Legs.
And seeing as how you and Brainiac had a lovely, kinky love affair inside of one another, you dirty dog Maybe, just maybe, you ain't entirely useless.
You want my help tracking down Brainiac, don't you? Let's get this straight.
I don't need nobody's help tracking down any mother-fragger in this universe.
You understand me? But I am gonna need you to answer some questions about your last encounter with the bastich, if you know what I mean.
Okay, how about we make a deal? I knew you were going to say that.
You want deals.
Always deals.
What do you want? Look, I'll tell you everything I know about Brainiac and I'll help you find him if you help me bring my son back.
I'm sorry, your son? - Jor-El.
- Stupid name.
Brainiac took my son.
I don't care, boy.
Well, he said something about the blood of House El, but really I think it's just 'cause he's an asshole.
- He is an asshole.
- Hmm.
Tell you what, you lead me to Brainiac, and I will deliver to you that ugly little potato that you call a son safe and sound and mostly, I said mostly, in one piece.
You gonna wash that? Nope.
Well, shit.
Sleep now, child.
We have a long journey ahead of us, but it will be worth it.
For once we reach our destination, you will be a god amongst men My son.
