All language subtitles for Utopia Falls - 01x01 - The World Is Yours.AJP69+ION10.gerard

-

They say time is the greatest thief,

because it's forever stealing the past.

First the details, then the memories,

till all we have left are the
distant echoes of what was.

We've all heard the stories.

Of how ambition gave
rise to technologies

that offered ease and comfort,

but at the price of
dependence and conflict.

Of how the lights of civilization

were scattered across the world,

until the Great Flash
sent everything dark.

And of the Surface Wars

that poisoned the earth's atmosphere,

forcing its survivors underground

for hundreds of years...

until they rose to
rebuild and start anew...

here in New Babyl...

where we all work in harmony.

No one wants for food or
work or sense of community.

Regardless of your
ancestry, age or gender,

everyone has a purpose.

For state, for community,

for all.

For state, for community, for all.

Some citizens work the land,

cultivating and harvesting
plant and insect life

for medicinal purposes,

as well as providing nourishment

for the entire colony.

While others work with those

who transgress against the state,

to help rehabilitate
them back into society.

But the youth of New Babyl

have the most important duty of all.

We train our whole lives

so that we can honor our
founders through performance

in the city's most
prestigious competition:

the Exemplar.

Our society strives to
create a better future

while being ever-mindful
of the mistakes of the past.

We may not remember,
but we are all aware

of the dangers of technology
when used for personal benefit

instead of the common good.

This was the legacy of our founder Gaia,

who led the last of humanity
out of the darkness

and into the light.

And we all take comfort knowing
that our leaders, the Tribunal,

watch over us.

While our protectors, the Authority,

keep us safe and secure.

The past is what we've been told,

but the present is what we know.

And someday, what you know

will help shape future
generations to come.

Any questions?

In the wise words of
our great founder Gaia,

make it your mission to find
passion in your profession.

Hi, Aliyah, good luck.

Thank you.

- Hey, Aliyah.
- Hi.

Tonight, citizens,

the Exemplar kicks off

with the selection of the 24 candidates

who will compete in
this year's tournament.

Be sure to come out
to your public square,

and support your local candidates.

- Good day, citizens.
- _

Go forth and find...

How you doing, José?

My man.

- Hey.
- Hey, Bohdi.

- Dawson.
- Good luck today.

Bohdi. Come.

I have something for you.

No, really, Miss Lara?

- No, I can't.
- Ah.

It's on the house for
the local celebrity.

Honestly, just save it
for a paying customer.

I don't feel right accepting anything.

That looks delicious!

Ah, another for my Mags.

Really?

I'm making the most of my
window of opportunity here.

And so should you.

Do I have to point out that, every year,

the selection committee never
picks more than one candidate

from Reform Sector?

That means your window's about to close.

Or your window.

Why so negative?

Extra sauce, please.

- Mm-hm.
- Thank you.

Thank you, Miss Lara.

Boys.

Good luck to you both.

Oh, here we go.

Bohdi. Magnus.

- Authority Taggart.
- Authority Taggart.

Big day for you two.
I'm sure you must be excited.

Oh, most definitely.

For once I don't have to
worry what you're up to.

So it's a big day for you too.

There are a lot of people
around here excited for you.

You know what either one of
you getting into the Exemplar

would mean to this community?

- We do.
- I hope so.

You've got an opportunity
to do some real good here,

represent the best of Reform Sector,

show all of New Babyl everyone
deserves a second chance.

Yes, sir.

All right. I'm pulling for you.

Both of you.

Wait, wasn't one of those mine?

See how fast that window closes?

_

Be gentle with those, Pat.

Sage, what are you doing?

I'm just harvesting the grubs.

Revised quotas require
a new harvesting system.

We agreed, left to right. Left to right.

But Gran Chyra said that I should...

Gran Chyra just
celebrated her 66th year.

She tends to get a little foggy.

I'll handle the harvest.

You should head out to witness
the Exemplar announcements.

Gran, we don't even
know if I'll get chosen.

Of course you will, child.

From the day we first saw you dance,

we knew you were destined.

But what if I'm not?

What if my name isn't called?

Then know that you'll
continue to be loved

and flourish here in Nature Sector.

And if you're not chosen,
it can only mean two things:

First, that your Gran Riel was wrong.

And second, that you're
probably dreaming,

because your Gran Riel is never wrong.

Now go on. Have fun.

No, Gran, it's okay.

I'd like to stay here and finish up.

All right, you stay and finish.

But make sure I see a full
harvest when I get back.

Yes, ma'am.

Child, what are you doing?

Harvesting.

Left to right. Gran Riel just said...

Gran Riel is two months
short her 64th year.

Her mind isn't what it used to be.

We just agreed on a new
system: top to bottom.

Remember that all are equal...

- Good luck, Aliyah.
- Thanks.

Injustice and equality
have been vanquished

by our glorious state, where today,

the strong persevere and succeed as one.

Careful.

If my girlfriend catches us,
we'll both be in big trouble.

Oh, you have a girlfriend now?

Congratulations, Tempo. Does she know?

Well, you'd think after
a ten-year friendship

she'd get the hint,
but she's a little slow.

Oh, you think you're funny?

- Good day, citizens of New Babyl.
- _

It is with immense pride that
I address you as your chancellor

on the anniversary of
our great city's founding

and the launch of the 73rd Exemplar.

Once every year,

this competition unites
us in common purpose:

to crown a new cultural ambassador

who will represent the
very best of who we are

and what we aspire to:

strength and prosperity,

through shared sacrifice and faith,

in the spirit of the
great founder, Gaia.

Twenty-four candidates
from across all four sectors

have been chosen by agents
of the selection committee,

to be granted admission to the Academy.

Only those celebrating their
16th year are considered.

And in the coming weeks,
they will perform,

and then it will be up to you...

Hey, if it is you instead of me,

I'm not going to be any less happy.

Same goes if it's you instead of me.

But it won't be.

Here are your candidates.

Lita 9 of Nature Sector.

- Kris 12 of Industry Sector.
- _

Davos 8 of Industry Sector.

- Tempo 3 of Progress Sector.
- Tempo!

I'm so happy for you.

Kef 9 of Nature Sector.

- Apollo 4 of Industry Sector.
- _

Magnus 2 of Reform Sector.

What?

Hey, I'm...

Hey, don't be.

Just go out there and win this thing.

- Bohdi 2 of Reform Sector.
- _

- What?
- What?

Reform! Reform! Reform! Reform!

Reform! Reform!

You were chosen.

The Chancellor announced your name.

I told you.

I told you!

Shar 3 of Nature Sector.

Sierra 5 from Nature Sector.

And our final candidate.

- Aliyah 5 of Progress Sector.
- _

- Aliyah, you're in!
- Oh, my Gaia.

You made it!

_

While Industry Sector
redoubles its efforts

to meet the revised
quotas on machine parts,

Nature Sector has
already met their targets

on proteins and carb dehydrates.

I'd like to suggest
curtailing production by 15%

and rewarding the
workers with an increase

in their recreational allotment.

No.

With all due respect, Authority Phydra,

it's not your call to make.

Authority Phydra is right, Reia.

Even though we have met the
revised fifth period quotas,

I don't want to risk falling behind

on shipments to the terminal.

I'm sure we all remember
the repercussions

from the last time that happened.

There will be no
curtailment of Production.

Ancillary deliveries will go towards

meeting next period quotas.

All right, if there's nothing else...

There is one more thing.

As you know, approximately
three months ago,

we experienced an isolated failure

to the force shield
surrounding New Babyl.

The city's defenses were compromised

for 42 minutes and 16 seconds

before structural integrity
was re-established.

You said that was a systems glitch.

- Apparently I was wrong.
- Does that mean?

The breach was intentional.

Which means either someone got out,

or someone has infiltrated the city.

You're home early.
I thought you had a meeting.

The Tribunal can debate

delivery quotas without me for once.

My daughter's more important.

Than delivery quotas?

- I feel special.
- And you should.

I picked up lunch.

- Well, I made lunch.
- Great.

Then we can both feel special.

And full.

Very, very full.

It's going to be quiet
around here without you.

It's not like I'm not allowed
to leave the Academy.

I can come back whenever I want.

You sure you're going to be okay?

I think I'm the one supposed
to be asking you that.

Win or lose,

I'm proud of you, sweetheart.

And your mom would have
been so proud of you as well.

You know, she always dreamed of
being chosen on her 16th year.

- She did?
- Mm-hm.

Your mom was an accomplished woman.

Lived her life with few regrets,

but not getting into the
Exemplar was a big one.

I remember she used to sing to me.

Every night.

She had a beautiful voice.

You sure you're going to be okay?

Did you make dessert too?

I did.

Then, yes, I should be fine.

This is finally it, sib.
This is our moment.

And we're doing it
together. Take that in.

Bohdi.

Congratulations, both of you.

Not done yet.

Still have a competition to win.

I wouldn't bet against you.

Good to hear, because
gambling is illegal.

I'm going to miss our
weekly check-ins, Mags.

Come back, you tell me all
about the Academy, okay?

We're going to get it done,
for everyone here in Reform.

Glad to hear it.

Authority Taggart.

My boys.

Let's take a walk, huh?

I think they're fine right here.

No, it's all right, Authority Taggart.

We're just going to say our goodbyes.

I hope so.

Look at you two. Academy-bound, huh?

So we made it, huh?

We, huh?

Yeah, we.

Reform Sector.

Regget, what is it I always say?

No credit, no loans.

No, the other thing.

You break it, you buy it.

No. I say "family first".

- You do?
- Yes, I do.

That's what we are.

Through good times and bad times,

family sticks together, right?

- Right.
- Right.

Who'd have thought?

In the history of the Exemplar,

never has there been two candidates

to come out of the Reform Sector.

And yet not three days
ago, when Miles 3 asked me

who I thought would make the
cut, you know what I said?

Mags.

No, I didn't say Mags.

- I was there. You said Mags.
- That's not what I said.

Just do me a favor.

Go take a walk.

And leave the bags.

Give me the bags.

Good luck.

As I was saying,

I knew you both would make it,
because you both have the talent

and the fierceness.

Now I can't speak to which
of you will come out on top,

but know this:

whichever one does,

they will be coming back
the greatest champion

this community has ever known.

You'll be able to write your own ticket.

You think about that.

Here.

Now you got to look your
best on the big stage.

I'll see you guys.

See you, Moore.

And let your friends know
where you got those if they ask.

_

That's Lita from Nature Sector.

I saw her sing at last
year's Harvest ceremony.

There's Davos from Industry.

He's incredible.

Welcome to the Academy.

Where, for the next few
weeks, and under our guidance,

you will prepare to compete
in the greatest competition

this city has ever known:

the Exemplar.

During that time, these
halls will be your home,

your fellow competitors your family,

and all of New Babyl
your captive audience.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.

Out of the hundreds of
potential candidates,

only 24 have been chosen.

And of the 24 chosen...

only one will win.

Oh, finally.

Brooklyn 2 of Industry Sector.

Thank you for joining us.

Sorry, missed my transport shuttle.

Let's hope your timing is better

when it comes to performance.

So, welcome all.

I am Mentor Watts, chairman of
the Exemplar selection committee

and overseer of the agents
who have watched, judged,

and ultimately chosen you to be here.

To my left is Mentor Chapter.

He's a former Exemplar runner-up,

here assuming his first year
of mentorship at the Academy.

We will ensure you give your very best.

As candidates, your artistic expression

will speak to the whole of our society.

Every single one of our past
champions walked these halls.

Draw inspiration from the past,

but blaze your own trail.

So to drive home that point,

you will face your first test here...

and now.

What?

You will perform

and we will assess.

Take time to gather yourselves.

We will reconvene here in 10 minutes.

- You okay?
- Yeah, I just need to think.

Sib. I was hoping I'd see you here.

Apollo. How's Industry Sector?

I heard you're at a mechanic shop?

Yeah. Yeah, it's, uh... it's been good.

- Nice.
- How's Aliyah?

We're still taking things slow.

You know, it's funny how you're both

from Progress Sector,

but you never seem to make any progress.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

♪ I'm heightened ♪

♪ And enlightened now ♪

Six, seven...

♪ I'm heightened And enlightened ♪

- Ah!
- Sorry.

Good thing I'm a singer, not a dancer.

You're the Tribunal's girl.

I'm the what?

Your father's a member
of the Tribunal, right?

So?

Uh, so nothing.

If it's nothing, why'd you mention it?

Well, I mentioned it because
it's true, and you are.

Yeah, I am. I'm also a great dancer

who deserves to be here
as much as anyone else.

- I never said you weren't.
- Yeah, you didn't have to.

And, by the way, I have
a name. It's Aliyah.

Yeah, and I'm Bohdi.

And I'm embarrassed.

What was that?

You're lucky she didn't punch you.

She is kind of flames, though.

All right, time's up.

Let's see what you got.

- You killed it.
- Thanks.

That was...

unimpressive.

For the most part,

your performances were entirely average.

With the exception of three candidates.

Reese, Tabor, Lakna, step forward.

You three delivered what
was, without a doubt,

the most disappointing
performance here today.

Don't bother unpacking.
You're going home.

This isn't fair. We
didn't get to compete.

The competition started the moment
you walked through those doors.

As for what's fair,
that's for us to decide.

Goodbye.

As for the rest of you,
let this be a lesson.

Don't get cocky.

Don't get complacent.

Complacent?

And don't assume you have
this competition figured out.

Three down, 21 to go.

Hey!

Did you tell them you were sharing?

Pfft! I'm not ashamed.

I need body fuel to rehearse.

So I'm looking ahead

to the first stage of competition.

It's the group round.

We're going to need seven performers.

I was thinking you and me,

Apollo, Apollo's buddy,

Tempo, Tempo's girl, Aliyah, and...

Yeah, no, I can't work with her.

You're going to have to.
She's as good as through.

She's the Tribunal's daughter.

You said it yourself.

- That's not what I meant.
- Mm, yeah, sure.

No, really. I think she's good.

She's really good.

Okay, great. Tell her that.
She'll accept your apology,

and then we can all get
along in the group round.

Apology? I didn't do anything wrong.

She took what I said the wrong way.

Well, you're going to make it
really tough to work with her.

No, I'm not, because
I'm not working with her.

Fine. To be continued.

No, not to be continued.
End of discussion. Thank you.

Okay.

We'll pick this up later.

- Brooklyn.
- Brooklyn.

Yeah, I remember.

You made a strong first impression.

Yeah, I do that.

What can I do for you?

Huh, layout's like mine.

Same closet.

What is this?

That was a gift from my grans.

Oh, were they your crèche guardians?

Yes.

You ever been curious
about your real parents?

My grans are my real parents.

They looked after me when I was a baby,

and adopted me in my eighth year.

- I meant...
- I know what you meant,

but those people, whoever they are,

they didn't raise me.

They made me a communal ward
because the needs of New Babyl

outweigh the needs of a child.

You don't really believe that, do you?

Well, it doesn't matter what I believe.

It's not going to change anything.

No, I guess you're right.

What's that?

- What?
- This.

Looks important.

I don't know. I didn't
see it when I came in.

Whoa, nice room.

I just think that the
second-best dancer in Progress

might want to eat
something on their first day

at the Exemplar Academy.

Second-best, huh?

Fine, just give me a minute to unpack,

and I will join you for a quick lunch.

Notes from a secret admirer?

Not this not-so-secret admirer.

"You are cordially invited
to a covert celebration

beyond the city limits.

Time: Tonight at 10:00
p.m. Place: The forest.

Tell no one.

The key to winning the Exemplar awaits".

It's a party invitation.

Or a trap.

Really? You know the penalty
for venturing beyond New Babyl.

This piece of paper is inviting
you to defy the Founder's Law.

I know. It's just... strange.

Not if you think about
what happened this morning.

They are looking for
excuses to send us home.

It couldn't be more obvious.

Hey.

- Oh, hi. Aliyah...
- Oh.

So, was it you?

- Did you send them?
- Send what?

You know what I'm talking about.

Okay, let's start from the top.

Hi, I'm Aliyah. You're Brooklyn, right?

Sage got one. I got one.

Got what? Do I at least get a hint?

No, because it said "tell no one".

Oh, the invitation.

- So it was you.
- No, I didn't send them.

Why would you think it was me?

Oh, right.

Because I'm the Tribunal's daughter

and I'm just trying to set everyone up?

- See you later.
- Okay, okay.

Sorry.

I'm just trying to figure
out what's going on.

A bunch of us get these
mysterious invites,

and we have no idea what to think.

You're afraid of defying the Authority

and leaving the city grounds.

Not really. I'm just
afraid it could be a trap.

I don't think it's a trap.
They don't need another excuse

to eliminate us from the competition.

They made that pretty
clear this morning.

Disqualifying candidates
for breaking the rules

is the last thing the Exemplar wants.

It makes them look bad.

So you really think there is a party?

Well, there's only one way to find out.

Hm.

This is nice.

Ha-ha! Wow.

Got you living nice in here, huh?

They still got you in this
poor man's clothes, though.

Hey, there he is.

Mags tells me they treating you right.

Yeah. Yeah, it's not bad.

Well, if the food is half
as good as this fool says,

then there's a chance, you know,
I may never leave this place.

Oh, presents.

For your friends. A little
something from Reform Sector.

Thanks. Ha-ha!

Yeah, we can't take these.

Why not?

Well, these are black market goods.

We could get kicked out
for handing these out.

Pssh! No one's going to kick
us out for giving out shoes.

Watts kicked three of
us out this morning.

You think he's not
looking for an excuse?

Look, man, I'm sorry you came
all the way here for nothing.

Bohdi.

Bohdi!

- Here, let me...
- No.

Bohdi's right.

You know when you guys were growing up,

I made sure to keep you out of trouble.

Last thing I want to be responsible for

is landing you in it
over some stupid shoes.

You tell Bohdi no hard
feelings, all right?

Um, hi, hello?

- What was that?
- What?

You mean me not wanting to
risk everything I've worked for,

just so Moore Times can
hook a few more customers?

He's been like a father to us,
always looking out...

Okay, one, you can
keep that father talk.

Two, what does that mean anyway, sib?

We have to be his runners now?
Now that we're in the Exemplar?

Are you hearing yourself?

Look, all I'm saying is,

he doesn't deserve to be
disrespected like that.

You could've found another way
to say what needed to be said.

I found one of those in my room, too.

Yeah?

What are you thinking?

Well, on one hand,

our mystery host could be setting us up.

Wants us to break the rules,
leave the city, get caught,

and then kicked out of the Exemplar.

Which actually, come to think of it,

not a bad way to get
rid of the competition.

Like you said, they could
be looking for excuses.

And on the other hand?

The party could be flames.

It's okay.

What?

Are you sure you want to do this?

Why not?

We're being asked to risk everything

and break one of New
Babyl's biggest rules

by someone whose identity
we don't even know.

And for what? A party?

The invite said, "The key to
winning the Exemplar awaits".

Do you want the others getting
an advantage that you won't?

Are you sure we're going the right way?

No.

I thought you were.

What? No.

Hey!

Sorry. We heard voices and hid.

Didn't know it was you.

Yeah, didn't mean to scare you.

We weren't scared.

Yeah, we were startled.

There's a difference.

Right.

Aah!

Apollo!

Sorry.

Didn't mean to startle you guys.

What took you so long?
I've been waiting forever.

Whoo!

Whoo!

Okay.

Mm-hm.

Let's go!

So are you going to talk to her?

Why would I want to talk to her?

I want to have a great time.

And you'll have an even
better time for the both of you

if you would just clear the air.

You guys got off on the wrong foot,

and I'm sure she feels just
as bad about it as you do.

Thank you.

Hey.

Hey.

So I just wanted to say
that I didn't realize

that your father being
a member of the Tribunal

was a touchy subject for you.

It's not.

Really? It kind of felt
that way this morning.

Because you insulted me.

Look, all I meant...

It doesn't matter what I meant,

because I hurt your
feelings and I'm sorry.

Thank you.

So, your turn.

My turn for what?

I apologized for hurting your feelings.

Don't you think you
should apologize to me?

For what?

For snapping at me.

You just admitted that you
deserved to be snapped at.

No, I didn't.

You apologized.

I apologized because
I felt sorry for you.

Oh, now you feel sorry for me?

Not anymore. Not with
that attitude, I don't.

- Oh, you're one to talk.
- Oh, really?

Well, you know what?
I am, and here goes.

You act like you're
better than everyone else,

and then when someone finally
wants to call you on it,

you want to act like
your feelings are hurt.

Well, let me tell you something,
whether you want to admit it or not,

you've had it easier
than any one of us here.

But that doesn't mean that...

Go.

Hey.

- Wait, just...
- Leave me alone.

Would you just... ?

- Look, look.
- What?

I'll leave.

You go back to the party.

I don't want to go back to the party.

Well, then you're just
going to have my company

all the way back to the Academy.

Your call.

Fun party, or annoying
walk back with me.

You are so irritating.

Really?

Well, I've been told
I'm kind of charming.

Well, whoever said that lied.

What is that?

Whatever it was, it's gone.

I've been here before.

What do you mean?

I recognize that tree.

And this rock face.

I've been here before.

But that is impossible.

I mean, I don't want to say it, but...

Look, I want to say it anyway.

Your father is a member of the Tribunal,

and there's no way a
member of the Tribunal

would break one of the Founder's laws

and take his family
beyond the city limits.

What is that?

Guess we're not going back to the party.

Hey, Tribunal girl.

"We know no time when
we were not as now".

What does that even mean?

So many words on so many pages.

But what is this place?

It reminds me of the
repository in Progress Sector.

It's where they keep all
records of past research.

They call it the library.

Voice prompt activated.

Library accessed.

Choose your subject.

- What was that?
- I don't know.

All I did was mention the library at...

Welcome.

I am the Archive.
