Today, victory is mine, old friend.
Perhaps you will win our next race.
Thank you for the workout.
[BARON ZEMO.]
This is unacceptable! Good evening, Baron Zemo.
Is something wrong? "Something," Black Panther? Everything is wrong! How can I do my work if you won't let me into the main computer systems? Network access is not necessary.
You are here to decrypt your father's files.
No more, no less.
You are keeping me in a cell! You have your jailers stalking my every move! The Dora Milaje are for your own protection, Baron.
Your suite is one of the best in the palace.
A cage of silk is still a cage.
You don't trust me! Admit it! Trust is earned.
The more of your father's files you unlock for us, the more freedom you will have.
Which I cannot do while you keep me locked out of the main system.
Computer, please display Baron Zemo's work station.
Your work station is fine, Baron.
I don't see why you're not making better progress.
My father was a genius.
Perhaps not up to your fine Wakandan standard, but believe me, deciphering his codes requires Huh.
That is odd.
Zemo! What did you do? I-I have done nothing.
Even if I wished to, you've locked me out of the system, remember? [TRILLING.]
The network is being hacked! Initiate countermeasures.
Lock this out now! Go! [SHIRI.]
The control hub in the throne room! It is our best chance.
The border shield is secure.
What of the satellite network? Running a full diagnostic now.
I still don't understand how this happened.
It's as if the system started eating itself from the inside out.
This could only have been done by someone with an intimate knowledge of the whole system architecture.
Someone who doesn't only know code but how we approach defense.
[TOGETHER.]
N'Jadaka.
Computer, upload signal transmission data, and activate satellite relay trace.
[BEEPING.]
Pele Pele? Yes.
Father and N'Jadaka were in negotiations to build a satellite station there several years ago, but the plan was abandoned due to the volcanic nature of the region.
It was far too unstable.
If there were no relay stations, why would he be on the island? [BLACK PANTHER.]
What if N'Jadaka lied and continued to build a station on the island in secret? That doesn't make sense.
We were children.
N'Jadaka was our teacher.
He couldn't have been planning his betrayal for so long, could he? I am beginning to believe we never truly knew him.
If that's so, he could have access to our entire satellite network.
I will go to Pele Pele immediately and investigate.
If N'Jadaka is behind this, I will bring him here to face justice.
Status report.
I'm going to have to take the entire system offline in order to repair the damage from the hack and reboot it.
But, T'Challa, we'll be blind to your whereabouts the entire time.
It will only be for a little while.
The safety of Wakanda is more important than tracking me on this mission.
Commencing shutdown.
All right.
Computer, initiate reboot.
Perfect.
Good work, every [ALARM BLARING.]
No! No, no, no! We're completely locked out! Everyone, take cover! [GRUNTS.]
[BEEPING.]
Satellite transmission signals.
Human heat signatures.
N'Jadaka! He has deceived us all! [BOTH GRUNTING.]
[BIRDS SQUAWKING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[LAUGHING.]
Most impressive.
This is truly an honor, Your Highness.
Ah, yes.
"A Royal Encounter.
" What a perfect title for this very special episode of Kraven's Amazing Hunt! [LAUGHS.]
Oh, I can see the tagline now.
"The Master of the Hunt versus the Panther King.
" Kraven, you are trespassing on Wakandan territory.
You've got it all wrong.
I'm an invited guest.
N'Jadaka, the next ruler of Wakanda, has granted me and my production crew access to the island to do a live broadcast of my hunt and defeat of the Black Panther.
You will both pay for your insolence.
Ah-ah-ah-ah! Save it for the cameras, huh? [GRUNTS.]
What [CRYING OUT.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
An example of my own technology.
I hope you are impressed.
Your armor is now useless.
Which means, Black Panther, you are mine! [LAUGHING.]
[KRAVEN.]
All alone.
His defenses, deactivated.
My weapons, upgraded.
Welcome, everyone, to a special live episode of Kraven's Amazing Hunt! This new hunt - [CRUNCHING.]
- is the greatest of my many hunts.
The most dangerous target of all a human being.
And this isn't just any human being, but he is none other than the famous Black Panther, the king of Wakanda! Today, the world's greatest predator will become the prey! Let the hunt begin! [LAUGHING.]
- [GRUNTS.]
- [LAUGHING CONTINUES.]
Simple wooden arrows can now take down your little Vibranium suit.
My hunt will be the fight of your life! [GRUNTS.]
[LAUGHING.]
No safe path to the doors.
You must have manual override.
We do.
It's over there.
Wunderbar.
It's configured to a handprint scan of authorized personnel.
Meaning only one of you, no doubt.
I can try for it, Princess.
I have to time it just right, or else No.
No.
Continue to guard Zemo.
Your concern for my welfare is touching.
Quiet.
I designed the system.
I can shut it down.
Firing pattern, time to reload Yes! If I can get to the panel before the system adapts Well, that didn't work.
Gotta find cover.
- You, jailer, track the reset interval.
- What are you talking ab - Zemo! What are you doing? - Buying you time, Princess.
It will adapt to us in just a few seconds.
Go! Now! [TRILLING.]
[DESCENDING WHIRRING.]
The danger is over.
The defense system is officially down.
Zemo? I'm here, Princess.
Thank you for your help.
You're quite welcome.
We're not out of danger yet.
We need to get to the computer core and cleanse our defense system of the Shadow Council's virus.
If we don't, Wakanda will be completely defenseless.
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
I wonder where he could be! [GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[LAUGHING.]
Look at that.
The Black Panther, truly an elusive quarry.
Hm? Your drones will not help you against me, Kraven.
[GROWLS.]
Those are expensive! [KRAVEN GRUNTS.]
[LAUGHING.]
[YELLS.]
Aahh! [GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
And so the hunt is over.
The Black Panther is indeed the worthy opponent that I had hoped for.
Such agility, such speed! But there is no escape from Kraven the Hunter.
Any last words before the end? Yes.
You should not have come this close.
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
[NERVOUS GASP.]
- [GRUNTING.]
- [GROANING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GROANS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[GROANS.]
[GRUNTING CONTINUES.]
[GASPS.]
[BOTH GRUNT.]
[GROANING.]
The show is over.
[CRUNCHING.]
[BEEPS.]
So, Kraven has failed.
It is to be expected, I suppose.
He's only an outlander.
For all your faults, you are still Wakandan.
What is this? You dare wear Vibranium, N'Jadaka? After you betrayed Wakanda? After you betrayed its king? That's about to change.
The name N'Jadaka doesn't suit me anymore.
From this day forward, I am Killmonger! [YELLS.]
[GROWLS.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
You disappoint me.
It seems you are not such a warrior without the technology in your royal armor.
My claws will be enough to deal with the likes of you, traitor! [YELLS.]
[GRUNTS, CHUCKLES.]
You can't beat me.
I know your skills.
I know how you think! I taught you everything you know! [GRUNTING.]
Is that your best, T'Challa? I taught you to always do your [GRUNTS.]
[GROANS.]
[COMPUTER VOICE.]
Ten minutes to satellite re-entry.
What What have you done? I've deactivated one of your satellites.
When it falls out of orbit, the impact will destroy your palace, and out of the ashes, a new Wakanda will rise one led by me.
If my father were alive, he would be disgusted by what you have become! Hmm.
T'Chaka was a great man, a great king, but he failed our people when he left his throne to you a spoiled, pampered prince without the strength to do what must be done! - And what is that? - Rule! Wakanda is superior.
Ours is the greatest nation the world has ever known.
The world will know it when Wakanda conquers all! [YELLS.]
[SHURI.]
Open sockets three, nine, and 24.
I need those for direct access to the kernel while I reset the beta node.
Princess, may I help you? Yes.
You may stop distracting me.
I am familiar with the computer systems.
- Surely there must be something - Dora Milaje, please take the Baron to his quarters.
What? I put my life at risk for you, and yet you still see me as an enemy?! I see you as an ally, truly, but this is a matter of Wakandan security.
You do not belong here.
Do you? I [EXHALES.]
will be in my suite.
Let him go.
He knows the way.
- [RUNNING FOOTSTEPS.]
- [YELLS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
Aah! - [YELLS.]
- [GRUNTS.]
[LAUGHING.]
It is over, T'Challa.
Time for your final lesson.
Perhaps.
But you are no longer my teacher.
[BOTH YELL.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
You have taught me everything you know, but not everything I know.
I have fought with Captain America.
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
I have fought with Black Widow.
I have learned, I have adapted, while you, Killmonger you [BOTH YELL.]
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
You are finished! [GRUNTS.]
Arrogant T'Challa.
Sloppy.
So focused on beating me, you've forgotten the true danger.
- [BEEPING.]
- Five minutes to impact.
Your sister is alone, defenseless.
Without your help, how ever will she prevail? You underestimate us both.
Shuri is never defenseless.
I have repaired my comm system.
Shuri, are you there? T'Challa, did you find N'Jadaka? He is no longer a factor.
What is your status? We've nearly regained control of the entire network.
When were you going to tell me a satellite is about to fall on us? You have time to stop it, but you must hurry.
Yes.
Thank you, King Obvious.
We're working as fast as we can.
- [BEEPS.]
- Yes! Went back online.
Activate the plasma shields.
[TRILLING.]
T'Challa, we've got a big problem.
Even with the plasma shields, the satellite's impact will still flatten a huge section of the city.
The losses would be catastrophic.
The satellite must be destroyed before it strikes.
On it.
Accessing the self-destruct right [PINGS.]
- No! No, no, no! - What is wrong? The self-destruct command has to come from the source where the go-signal originated the island.
You have to initiate the self-destruct sequence from there.
I'm transmitting you the stop code.
- You have less than two minutes.
- [BEEPING.]
[KILLMONGER CHUCKLING.]
Do you truly think I didn't plan for this possibility? [BEEPS.]
[RUMBLING.]
[GRUNTING.]
Capture the villain or save your sister.
We both know what your choice will be.
[BEEPING CONTINUES.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
Weak.
[PANTING.]
Ten, nine, eight, seven, [BEEPING.]
six, five, four, three, two [BEEPS.]
Self-destruct initiated.
[BEEPING.]
Yes! T'Challa, you did it! [LAUGHTER.]
Wait.
We are reading extremely high volcanic activity all around you.
[GRUNTING, PANTING.]
Shuri, I am running out of island! I have a fix on your location.
[GRUNTING.]
This is going to be close.
[PANTS, GRUNTS.]
Thank you, sister.
I am coming home.
[SHURI.]
Computer and defense systems are secure and fully operational.
[BEEPING.]
We've also revised and updated all security protocols and shut down the backdoor access that N'Jadaka used.
He calls himself Killmonger now.
And what do you mean "we"? Zemo proved himself during the crisis.
I've given him limited computer access.
Are you sure that is wise? He risked his life for me, T'Challa.
For all of us.
Killmonger and the Shadow Council are a threat unlike any other.
- We need - Ah, stop.
If you trust him, Shuri, that is enough.
Zemo is an ally.
It's Killmonger who wants your throne.
He will never have it, sister.
You can trust that too.
