Previously on Cleopatra 2525:
We finally extracted a power cell from a Bailey.
Please listen to me.
My brother is preparing to leave...
for your underworld as we speak.
He intends to destroy it.
Cleo!
Sarge, it's okay. It's speaking to me.
I've seen that before. I- I- I'll disarm it.
Go.
Cleo!
I'm almost there! Ugh.
Uh, I got it.
That doesn't make sense.
I mean those Aquafreaks were all set to destroy the underground.
Isn't that what the Bailies want?
I don't know. Is it?
Any chance in hell the Bailies are gonna understand...
we're on a peace mission up here?
Well, they did help us stop those Aquaguys from flooding the underground.
You know, maybe this whole Bailey war
is just a big misunderstanding.
Yeah, I'm sure it was just a mix-up they drove
every human being off the face of this planet.
I did say a big misunderstanding.
Bailies. Let's get to work.
Hel, I know you have your doubts about this.
But if the Bailies do want to keep humanity alive
it challenges every assumption we've ever made about them.
We have to know why.
Shields?
Not yet.
This is supposed to be a peace mission, remember?
Hel, show them our peace offering.
Here goes nothing.
Oh, they recognize it.
They know we have one of their pods.
Do you hear that?
Hear what?
I don't know.
Return what you have taken.
I can hear them.
Hel, Cleopatra must have retained residual link
with the Bailies from her previous empathic contact.
What are they saying, Cleo?
I think they want their pod back.
We'll put that on the table. But first, let's negotiate a cease-fire.
They definitely want their pod back.
Fall back!
Come on!
Hel!
Go!
I'm coming.
Jump!
No. What about Hel?
Hel would want you to jump.
Hel!
Go, Sarge. Go!
Great.
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 is 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"
CLEOPATRA 2525 2x06 "THE POD WHISPERER" Subtitles by subXpacio
Hel, I just detected a Bailey tractor beam.
Apparently, they want to capture you alive.
Apparently. Have you also detected
that the shaft entrance is destroyed?
I need you to find me another way home, Voice.
There's a ventilator outlet two kilometers
to the northwest.
Two kilometers?
Is that the closest way home?
Unless you care to start digging, I'm afraid so.
And, Hel, your gauntlet telemetry indicates
your shield strength is at 20% and falling.
Great.
How much longer till total shield failure?
10 minutes, 36 seconds.
Then, I guess I'd better get moving.
Hel, hold your position.
A girl just can't catch a break around here.
How long?
Hel's shield will fail in 9 minutes, 52 seconds.
"Peace mission," my ass.
I'm going back up there.
Wait. You won't stand a chance against four Bailies.
So what would you like to do, Cleo?
Leave her up there?
Hel walked into a Betrayer factory to save you.
She's your friend.
So are you. And if you go up there and get killed
I'll be running a little low in the friends department.
We need a plan.
Voice is leading Hel to the vent shaft here.
That's two kilometers.
Hel's in good shape.
She can run a 2 "K" in nine minutes.
Yeah, but remember, she's gonna be dodging the Bailies.
Perhaps she doesn't have to run.
Yeah. Bitching set of wheels.
It's a pet project of mine.
A 23rd century shaft racer.
Before they were outlawed.
Dual ion pulse engines.
Quaduranium boost pump.
And a few modifications of my own.
It reminds me of Maggie.
Maggie?
My little car back in the 20th. '66 Mustang.
Very sweet.
So this thing flies?
In theory.
The biggest challenge was synthesizing a stable fuel.
So, what do you use for motion lotion?
Go-go juice? Gas?
The Bailey energy pod?
It delivers a seemingly
inexhaustible supply of energy.
It's been running Cleopatra's hair-drying device for weeks.
Cleo, you okay?
Yeah.
I still get weird vibes from that thing.
Mauser,
I don't care what powers your toy,
can you make it fly?
I believe so.
Ah.
Uh, how come you get to drive?
You're not automatically better
at everything than I am.
I played Nintendo.
Hang on. Surface coming up.
Three, two, one.
Oh!
Okay. I've got a lock on Hel's position.
Okay, Hel, here we come.
Light a candle, Sarge. Oh, yeah.
Let's see if these thrusters work.
Mauser.
Wowser.
Bogies on our six, Maverick.
What?
Bailies behind us!
Behind us, Sarge! Punch it!
Hello, hello.
Hang on.
Okay.
I can't shake them.
Something's wrong. It's not responding.
It's like it's fighting against me.
Come on!
Getting a little airsick here.
Come on, you stupid piece of garbage.
What the...
That wasn't Bailey fire.
Man, I hate coming up here.
Hel, the surface is our destiny.
Our destiny. Yeah, I know.
I know, to fight the Bailies for the mud and the, ow... thorns.
And those things that suck your blood.
What is that?
Mosquitoes?
Ugh. Yeah, mosquitoes.
Oh. You know, sometimes a climate-controlled sub-level
is not a bad thing.
Hel, the vent shaft
is only a few hundred meters ahead.
It's gonna be a long few hundred meters.
Ah.
Come on, you antique pile of refuse from a Trog slag.
Easy, girl.
That's right, baby.
Sarge didn't mean those nasty things she said. Bad Sarge.
She won't respond to you, Sarge.
"She"?
Hel, your shield is nearly exhausted. Hurry.
How the hell are you doing that?
It's the Bailey energy pod.
We've got that psychic connection, remember?
Don't ask me how I know, but she won't respond
to your hostility.
She just likes me better, hmm.
Uh. No offense, but...
Whoa! Okay.
Come on, girl.
Think you can just ask her, pretty, please,
to get us the hell out of here?
Roger Wilco.
Oh!
Voice!
Hel at 12.
Keep her steady. Okay.
I don't think so, boys.
Okay, go up for the Bailey.
Going up.
Fire!
That's right, Maggie. You go, girl.
Somebody order pizza?
Where did you guys get this thing?
Cleo's driving?
Hey, Sarge isn't automatically better at everything than I am.
Cleo, get us out of here.
Go! Okay.
All right!
Is that what I think it is?
Yeah.
Show me. Just point and shoot.
I can't get a clear shot.
Cleo, hold it steady.
Roger Dodger.
Easy, girl.
Oh, yeah, you got it, baby.
Whoo.
Ooh!
I feel the need for speed.
Okay. We've got more boogers coming in.
Bogies, Sarge.
Yeah, well, whatever. We got two more at 2:00.
Hold them off for a few more seconds.
Here we go.
Cleo!
All right, Maggie. I know you can do it. Underground coming up.
A few cuts and bruises.
Not even worth warming up the healing tube.
Welcome home, Hel.
Thanks, Mauser.
And thank you.
That's some pretty fair rescuing out there, guys.
Well, you know,
we do what we can.
Well, I'm glad you do.
But I still want to know
how Cleo was able to fly like that.
I'm a bit curious about that myself.
Well, let me tell you, Hel.
There is a sacred bond
between a woman and her ride.
You know what I'm saying?
Maybe not.
Let's go get that sand out of your hair.
Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, let's go do that.
Oh, you guys were just incredible.
You, uh...
You did a good job.
What is she doing?
Sarge?
