All language subtitles for Starhunter Redux S02E08 Torment

Santiago, we'll be
leaving at 1900 hours tomorrow,

and that means you have 20
hours to come up with a ransom.

I can't get that much
money, not in 20 hours.

Then your parents die.

All right. All right, I'll do what I can.

Let me talk to my parents.

Let me see them.

My parents were environmental
engineers. They'd gone to Earth on a job.

They left me with my
aunt. I was just a baby.

They went missing, North American
jungle, everyone assumed they were dead.

And now Darnell just calls you up out
of the blue to say he kidnapped them.

Sounds like a scam to me.

Darnell sent me recent Biogen samples.

They are my parents.

Why wait almost 50 years to contact you?

He's got an antimatter drive.

He's been out in the far
worlds, traveling at sublight speed.

Time dilation.

Fifty years is like,
what, eight months to them?

Your parents must be half
your age. They're kids.

They're just frightened kids.

Where's the transfer supposed to happen?

Darnell said he'd contact me. Look, I
can pay you. 75,000 credits. Is that okay?

Yeah, it'll have to be. I
have to run it by my crew first.

Mr. Montana...

Please, ask them what they
would do to save the lives

of their own parents.
I'll bear it in mind.

So, technically, you could be twice your
father's age by the time you find him.

What a racket. I wonder how many
other kidnappings Darnell's juggling.

Well, this is the perfect crime.

Yeah, if you don't mind having a
live bomb rocket tethered to your ship.

I don't know. If our
anti-matter drive was working,

we might even be able to stand
a chance of chasing him down.

That thing? I'd be happy
if it stayed in storage.

Sorry to interrupt
your amusement, Rodolfo,

but I have an incoming
transmission from your beloved ex-wife, Gina.

Where's my 50,000, hun? It's been a
week since you promised it to me.

Gina, my sweet.

Favorite X-Ball and train.

How lovely to see you,
too. 50,000 credits.

That's extortion.

It's not extortion, Rodolfo.
It's called child support.

Something you probably
wouldn't know about, you

cheap son of a... Oh, no, no, no, my love.

I admit I have been remiss in
my payments every now and then.

Oh, let's cut the crap, hmm?

I need 50,000 credits to send
Serena to correctional camp.

Or I could dump her in your lard-ass
lap for the entire summer vacation.

What? No, no, no. I can't have our
daughter on the tulip. I mean, she hates me.

You've made sure of that.

Correctional camp.

What has she done this time?

Serena has discipline
problems. Yeah, well, I'm

not the one raising
her. No, exactly my point.

Gina, I don't have the money.

I put every spare penny I
have into your pocket as it is,

not to mention the other
two blood-sucking exes.

Well, the courts seem to think you
have more than 50,000 unseizable assets,

so if you want to hold on to your
bounty-hunting business and your ship,

I suggest you come up with the
money for correctional camp,

or spend some quality time
with your ever-loving daughter.

It's not my business. I don't own it
anymore. Oh, fine, fine, fine, just fine.

I'll take the little Hellcat.

But now you owe me.

Oh, you're the one who
deserted his family, Rodolfo.

I will never owe you a damn thing.

Absolutely not. It's a
terrible idea. Are you crazy?

She won't be any trouble. She's a
sweet, kind girl. She won't get in the way.

I promise you, she won't get in the way.

Thought you said she hated you.

I never said such a thing. We've got a
typical father-teenage-daughter relationship.

Oh, really? And when was the last time
you saw her? Well, do you mean in person?

Have you actually met her?

What kind of question is that, Travis?

I mean, I know she's a cracker
in every subject and so forth.

I don't know.

Another mouth to feed.

Yeah, I'll cover the expense.

Yeah, well, if you believe that.

Not for a second.

On the other hand... Come on,
you're not seriously considering this.

Look, he needs our help.
It's temporary, so why not?

Um, because we're on a bounty ship.

You do remember what teenage
girls are like, don't you?

Teenagers are psycho.

You of all people should know that
a child needs his parents, Travis.

After all, your old man's out there
bobbing about in space like some piece of crap.

Oh, I could have said that better.

I doubt it. But look, I'm not going to
vote to keep a father and daughter apart.

You guys do what you want.

Listen, Rodolfo, it's fine with me.

Okay, but just don't ask me to babysit.

I'm not getting stuck with her.

Fine on both points.

Well, we're done then.

Bring her on board.

Well, actually, Serena...

I hope you don't mind. I
was in a bit of a corner.

Still, I knew my friends
would... Shut up, Rudy.

You scammed them.

Won't be the first time.

Still, you're here now,
darling, and that's what counts.

I would have given you the complete
tour, but, well, this beauty's so big,

it would have taken days. That's okay.

Now, this is where the action is.

State of the art.

Oh, really?

And this is my chair.

See, they saved the biggest
chair for the biggest ass.

Oh, now, why would you
say something like that?

I'm simply showing you where I
work. I've been on ships before,

and a lot nicer than this.

And this? This isn't your chair.

You're not Captain Material.

What do you expect me to say?
Gee, Daddy, I'm so impressed.

Now I completely understand why
you abandoned me and Mom. I mean,

who wouldn't give up
their family for all of this?

That's not the reason I left.

Your mother and I... Oh, please spare me.

Mom's already told me
everything I need to know. You're

a lying,
irresponsible, two-timing bastard.

All right, I guess this tour is over.

Does Marcus like Percy?

I've no idea.

What about Callie?

That's it. The tour is definitely
over. Go to your room now, Serena. Now!

Listen to me. I may be many things,
but I am not a two-timing bastard.

Don't touch me.

Little Miss Teenager got Daddy down?

Your sympathy is overwhelming.

Nothing I say to her...

Can you talk to her for me?

Yeah.

She hates me.

Maybe she has her reasons.

Her mother has poisoned the waters.

God knows what horror stories
she's been fed over the years.

And the truth is, her mother... Her
mother... I met Gina in a strip joint.

She was a dancer there.

We had fun at first.

I'll bet.

She had a darker side.

I thought she'd get over it.

So I filed for divorce when
Serena was two years old.

The court handed me my head, and now
Serena hates me. Could you talk to her?

You'd be a good role model.

You've lost it, haven't you?

You've got the ship. You've got
purpose. You've got a future.

My ship's a whore.

My purpose is to waste my life on
it, and my future's more of the same.

Sorry.

No! No, there's still 75,000 in the job.

I don't do kidnappings.

The clients are always basket
cases. They never listen to your advice,

and the second anything
goes wrong, they turn on you.

Ungrateful twerps.

You talking about kidnapping or Serena?

Kidnapping clients cannot be
relied upon to pay in a timely fashion.

He's just trying to save his parents.

Close to her, mate Travis.

I'm in.

Yeah, me too.

Well, there you have it
then. Majority rules.

Look, he's going crazy and he's driving
me crazy. You sure you can't talk to Serena?

I'm going to be busy.

I have an incoming
communication from Arthur Santiago.

Roll it. Mr. Montana,
Darnell contacted me.

He wants the ransom money dropped
off at Sin City tonight, 7 o'clock.

I can't wait any longer.

Will you take my case?

Look, if it's the money,
I can take out a loan.

No, no, that's all right.
We can leave for Ohio now.

You can fill us in on the
details while we're on the road.

Do you and your team...

Thank you.

But please, hurry.

Car, tell the bus station
we're leaving. Time to own.

Hi, Marcus.

Oh, hi.

Caravaggio said you'd be
here. What are you doing?

I'm just tinkering with
the life support relays.

We've been experiencing
some temperature fluctuations.

Wow.

You must be really important around here.

Well, I wouldn't say... Well, yeah.

Yeah, I suppose you're
right. I mean, someone's

got to keep the ship
running, haven't they?

So, how are things going
between you and your dad?

Do we have to talk about that?

That good, eh?

I don't even know why we have
parents, especially fathers.

Well, parents can be
good. They can help a lot.

Yeah, but they treat you
like kids, and I'm not a kid.

Well, you're 16, right?

Yes, but those are just years, and
experience is what counts, and I have plenty of

Marcus, your presence is requested in
the galley. Marcus to the galley, please.

Uh, can you meet me later?

No.

That's a bad idea.

Hey, you got a minute?

What's up?

Well, I don't know what's wrong with me,

but I think I'm starting
to feel sorry for Rodolfo.

You want me to talk some sense into you?

No, I think we should talk to Serena.

Say what?

Cheer up, you stupid teenager.

Yeah, that's exactly what I
thought we'd say. Car, where's Serena?

Mr. Luna is in her quarters.

No.

Here come the social workers.

Rudy giving up on me already?

I think your dad's just a little
confused about how to handle you.

I mean, deal with... He's confused.

He seems to be confused
about a lot of things.

It's almost as bad as my mother.

But who needs parents anyway?

They either abandon you
or try to turn you into a

copy of themselves.
Yeah, I'm with you on that.

Anyway, I know it's all crap,
no matter what anyone tells you.

So, which one of you is bonking Marcus?

I think he's really cute.

So do you. I can tell by
the way you look at him.

Do you piss off everyone
you meet? Pretty much.

Thanks for the pep talk.

Anytime.

You think Marcus is cute?

That girl's an idiot.

How the hell do I know what goes
on in the mind of a teenage girl?

When I was her age, they all
went for the hooligan element.

I bet you made out like a bandit.

I was a bandit.

I just don't understand her.

Yeah, well, maybe you need to talk to
her. She is your daughter after all.

I'm her father in name only.

Her mother has done her level
best to keep me out of her life.

Which you foretooth and
nail, of course. Point taken.

Did you talk to her?

Do you have a plan B?

And?

Yeah.

Didn't go well.

Let me spin this in the
most positive light I can.

I didn't strangle her.

I'll be in my quarters.

So she's got some issues?

Yeah.

With Rodolfo, her
mother, the entire world.

Come on, she can't be that
bad. Bet you were hell on wheels.

Yeah.

Well, that was in my past.

Excuse me, IO orbital is hailing us.

Good, about time.

Request permission to
depart. And, uh, Carr,

can you give me schematics
of the drop-off location?

Schematics prepared. The
shuttle is ready for launch.

All right.

So basically, he wants to leave the
ransom here. And we'll just track him in?

Hi.

Serena.

Hey, listen, I don't think
this is such a good idea.

With you being the doll poster.

What's this?

Did you hear what I just said?

Yeah, but you're wrong.

I just came here to talk.

Nobody else wants to talk to me.

It's an anti-matipod.

What does it do?

Well, nothing at the moment.

But with a bit of work, it
should take us to sub-light speed.

Cool.

Yeah.

Your dad picked it up a couple of years
ago, but we haven't managed to fix it yet.

Typical of my dad to get
something that doesn't work.

Oh, it works.

It's just highly erratic,
which is why we need to fix it.

I thought you just wanted to talk.

Don't you trust yourself?

I don't know what you're trying to prove.

Come on, I know you want me.

Pardonnez-moi.

He attacked me.

Are you kidding me?

She came on to me, I
said no, and she went nuts.

Can you believe that?

You do believe that, right?

Hold up.

Take me with you.

No, I don't think that's a good idea.

Just get me the hell away
from my daughter, please.

Okay, I never laid a finger
on her until she attacked me.

You want to come, shuttle leaves in three.

I think we got our
mark. Straight opposite me.

Rodolfo?

Are you okay?

Yeah. Just a scratch, mate.

Tulip, get the infirmary ready.

How's he doing?

Aside from his unpleasant demeanor, very
well. He's stabilized. I feel stabilized.

You lost a bunch of blood.

No permanent nerve or muscle damage,
but you will have some discomfort.

Yeah, like a rabid dog tearing my arm off.

No, that is not what I meant, but I
will prescribe something for the pain.

Well, stop hovering around like a
fretting ninny and go and get on with it.

I am not a ninny, and I do not fret.

You screwed up, Santiago.

By bringing bounty hunters into this,
you've cost yourself another 50 years.

We're leaving.

And when we come back, the
ransom will be tripled. That is,

if we decide not to kill your
parents and be done with it.

I shouldn't have hired you.

I'll never see my parents again.

Mr. Santiago, calm down.

Contact Darnell. Tell him you're willing
to double the ransom and keep us out of it.

He won't believe me. He'll kill them.

No, he won't. Not if he wants his money.

He's just trying to scare you.

Baby, I'll get back to you.

I don't know. If I were Janelle,

I would go sub-light for a
few days until things cool off,

and then I'd come back
a year or so our time

and put the screws all over to Santiago.

Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.
Better not sweat him with it, though.

Okay, so we have to make
sure he doesn't go sub-light.

Yeah.

Percy and Marcus to the bridge.

Carr, scan the outer orbits. Find out
who's leaving. I am tracking three vessels,

two lunar terrain scheduled
transports. The third is a private vessel.

No itinerary on public log.

Control, permission to depart.

Kara, are we tracking them?

Affirmative, but they've got a
22,346 kilometer lead on us. Well,

he's gonna have to slow
down in order to go sub-light.

Mane's online.

Full power, Kara.

Full power acknowledged.

You don't knock?

Not when I know the
answer's gonna be bug off and die.

You're tidy. I don't like messy.

Life's messed up enough.

Well, I tend to agree with that.

I'm glad you didn't pay Mum the money.

I didn't want to go to correctional camp.

She was just going to
drop me off there and

forget about me until
school started anyway.

I'm sure she just thought that a little
tough love was in her order, that's all.

Why that would be, I don't know.

I'm kind of tired.

Yeah, I've...

I've got to get back to the bridge,

so we're just about to
get into it with a bounty.

So I'll just... Can I come with you?

I thought you were tired.

Just a bit.

You'll be safer here.

Fine.

Any suggestions?

How about we come up at speed?

Detonate a shock torpedo about 100
meters off their antimatter pod.

Let's just scare the crap out of them.

Would scare the hell out of me. I like it.

Me too.

Callie, load shock torpedo.

Locked and loaded.

Hold on, guys, are we sure about this?
When I bartered for the antimatter pod,

I studied the specs closely.

Yeah, they're touchy, all right, but they
should take a shock torpedo. Of course,

they ain't gonna know that, are they?
Because nobody reads the specs these days.

Fine, let's make him sweat.

Callie, fire one.

My pleasure.

I got their attention there, Rudy.

Thought it might. Car, hail them. This
is Travis Montana of the Trans-Utopian.

The game's up, Darnell.
Prepare to be boarded.

You fire another torpedo
on us, and our antimatter

drive will implode.
We'll all be sucked in.

Hit the tether.

Release it. There's no
telling where that pod will fly.

That's tons of antimatter
bouncing around out there.

Target lasers.

Are you crazy? !

It's gonna hit their ship.

This could be a very
exciting day for astronomy.

Are we gonna be okay?

Of course.

Nothing to this.

Keep reading those spec sheets, Rodolfo.

I'm afraid the
antimatter pod is approaching us.

I should point out the
potential for utter disaster.

Evasive action.

It's going to be tight.

Now, that's what I call
quality craftsmanship.

Carl, what's his status?

For the moment, they
are effectively disabled.

This is Trans Utopian.
We've got five contact

torpedoes. They're loaded. We'll use them.

What do you want to do?

What do you want?

What do you think?

You can have the parents, but not us.

Neutral ground for the transfer.

Sin City, Main Square.

Your idea worked.

Wow.

Well, they will help.

That was something. We
could have been blown to bits.

Did you know the antimatter
pod wasn't going to blow up?

Did it ever collude?

You know, this place isn't so bad.

It has its moments.

It'd be kind of cool if I
could stay here for a while.

Oh, no, hang on a minute, love.

I really don't want to go back to school.

What about your mother?

Leave her out of this.

Look, this is no place
for a 16-year-old girl.

Then where is a place? Because
everywhere I go, nobody wants me.

That's not true.

Yes, it is. You don't want me here.

You've got to go back to school.

You can't tell me what to do. How dare
you think you can tell me what to do?

I can go whenever I want,
wherever I want. You get out, you lying.

Get out.

Just get out.

Get out.

Just get out.

Caravaggio. At your service, Mr. Luna.

I need to send a private message.

Excellent.

And if there is any other way I may
be of assistance, do feel free to ask.

Encryption mode is on.

Lucky man.

Might be you one day.

Yeah.

Or you.

Montana.

Torina's gone. She's not on the ship.

Maybe she boarded a
transport to the surface.

Why the hell would she do that?

We had a fight. I'm en
route in the shoal. Stay

where you are until I
get there. Shuttle out.

Anything? Not yet.

She could be anywhere.

Well, does she have a friend on the I.O.?
Does she know anyone at all, a relative?

I've no idea. I suppose
I should, but I don't.

Listen, mate, first
things first, let's find it.

Hey, honey.

I'm Vela. You're kind
of young to be in here.

I'm supposed to be meeting someone.

What do you think?

Just going through the motions.

You dance.

Takes one to know one.

So how old are you?

I'm 18. Yeah.

Tell me another lie and
I'll call the vice boys.

I'm 16. And yeah, I dance.

Yeah? Where?

Ipidus.

Hyperion.

No family?

No.

You're Serena?

Yeah.

You all right? Yeah.
Thanks. What are you drinking?

Synth beer.

You better not be sending me out.

Of course not.

Because I wouldn't like that.

No, trust me.

I just want to get as
far away from my father

as I can and out of
this stupid solar system.

Your father's one of the bounty
hunters on the Trans-Utopian, right?

I told you.

Just checking.

Runaways sometimes... Lie?

I'm not a liar.

That'll be my father.

Don't worry, Serena. I'll get you
as far away from him as you like.

The far worlds are just
right for a woman like you.

You can be and do anything
you want. Nobody to stop you.

Oh, well, here's one. A
text message from Serena's

quarters to IO orbital shuttle
service, requesting a schedule.

Any other messages?

A holo at 1655, but it's encrypted.

Destination?

Also encrypted.

Caravaggio?

Yes?

Decrypt the holo sent from
Serena's quarters at 1655.

I would be happy to.
However, the message was sent

on privacy mode.
Therefore, I'm unable to comply.

Car, we've been through this before.
Decrypt the message or I'll delete you.

Oh, very well then.

Hi Darnell, you don't know
me, but my name's Serena,

and I have some information I
think you might be interested in.

I know how you feel, Serena.

You gotta do what they tell you to do.
Exactly, and you feel so trapped. Yeah,

I was the same way, so I got the hell
out. Now, I'm my own boss with my own crew.

Yeah, but you do some crimes.

Oh, sure, but nobody gets
hurt. Gotta make a living.

Wait till you see the
vacation spots in the far world.

Sounds incredible.

Hey...

From the configuration of your dad's ship,

it looks like it might
have an anti-matter drive.

Yeah, they got one, but it's busted.

They think they can fix it.

Oh, how about that?

So, Serena, how much do you think a
bounty hunter like your dad makes in a year?

I don't know.

A lot.

I mean, he's a total bastard, but
he's pretty good at what he does.

Come with us.

You'll make ten times what he makes.

You're kidding.

When do we leave?

That's the spirit. So
here's the deal. Leave now.

Meet me in half an hour
in Federation Square.

Okay.

My shuttle will be docked nearby. Oh, go
quickly. Now don't worry, I'll be there.

I just have a few things to get ready.

We follow the kid, make
sure there's no setup.

Once we get the kid on board, we'll
make the ransom demand. Thanks, Percy.

How could Serena be so stupid?

Wire Angel.

Darnell's just gonna hold it to ransom.

Just a kid. Don't be so hard on her.

And why in there? It's a Peeler
joint. It doesn't make sense.

It only makes sense to Serena for a
place like this is familiar territory.

At the Hodge Club. How many times do I
have to tell you? Hey, if I'm with a client,

I'm not coming here for
free. Where you been?

Where you been?

Where you been?

How many credits are you getting?

My name's Montana.

Montana, huh? Oh, hey,
you work at Marks Bacon.

Yeah, listen to me.

Yeah, he's an old friend of mine.

I bet he is.

My name's Vela.

Great, listen to Vela.

Uh-huh.

You see this girl?

Oh, geez, yeah, you know what? She
was just in here a few minutes ago.

She was sitting with this real
creepy guy. I knew he was trouble.

Did they leave together?

Well, kind of, yeah, one after another.

Any idea where they were heading?

Uh, no, I just heard him mention
Federation Square, but that's all.

That's good enough. Thanks, Bella.

All right.

Hey, good luck.

Drop by sometime. Maybe we can...

Hey, Serena. You scared me. Didn't
mean to. So, you ready for some fun?

Sure. Let's go. Dad? Dad?

You set me up! I swear I didn't!

Hold your fire, I'll kill
her! You lied to me! Shut up!

Put your weapons down!

We're just gonna walk
out of here nice and easy.

And we'll be in touch.

Let her go. You okay?

Knock, knock.

Yes?

I thought I'd take a
chance this time and knock.

Come on in.

How's your leg?

It's worse than they are.

Is that you?

Yeah.

Look at me.

What a wanker I was. But I am.

Was.

We're still working on Amp.

So, a waitress named Viola
was telling me something.

She doesn't know what she's talking about.

That's okay.

I'm in no position to judge.

It's true.

I stripped.

Please tell me your mother
didn't put you up to it.

Why on earth would she do that?

Serena, if I'm going to be a
father to you, I need to know you.

We needed the money.

You didn't always pay the alimony on time.

Don't blame her. It's
the only life she knows.

I'm really mad at Mom, and
I'm really mad at you I just

needed to feel a way to
get away from both of you.

That stops now.

You're my little girl, and your mother's.

Your parents love you.

Even if we can't stay in the
same solar system together.

The truth is, we don't deserve you.

That may be true.

But you need me.

I mean, who else is going to
point out all your mistakes?

Well, I can't promise to
not make any mistakes.

But I will try to be a
father to you from now on.

Even if it means seeing Mum?

No matter how painful that may be.

I'd like that.

Would you like to see me in pain?

I didn't say that.

Well, you implied it.

Shut up.

Let's look at some
photos. Ooh, family photos.

My favorite.

Anista! On the next Star Hunter.

Your son's death was drug-related.

Something called an Anista?

It's a kind of super painkiller.

Makes you think you're indestructible.

No, be the man. Be the man. Okay? Yeah.

I agreed to be the bait, not the star
attraction in a turkey shoot. Do you owe me?

Not anymore.
