All language subtitles for Time Trax s02e14 The Last MIA

These are the journals of Darian
Lambert, Captain, Fugitive Retrieval

.D.

2193.

My captain had followed a 22nd century
murderer to the heartland of America,

Junction City, Kansas.

It began in the future.

A time machine called Trax.

Criminals who vanish.

And a lawman who must pursue into the
past.

Now he's among us.

A special breed of man.

He has one weapon and a computer named
Selma.

Good morning, Captain Madman.

With her, he will travel through our
world.

Searching for fugitives from his own.

Knowing he cannot go home until he has
found them all.

His name is Darian Lambert.

And this is his story.

Where am I?

In the farmhouse of the man who brought
you here.

I've got to get to a hospital. I've got
to get this bullet out of my shoulder.

It's already been removed, Captain.

By who?

Our host.

And with great medical skill, I might
add.

Drink this.

Chicken soup you'll ever have.

Go on, now.

That's good.

I know my soups.

Well, it looks like you also know how to
take a bullet out.

Well, see, that's Army.

Did it in Korea.

Did it in Nam.

How come you were dating that guy? You a
cop?

Something like that.

Look, don't get me wrong. I'm very
grateful to you, but why did you bring

here?

Because you're a very unusual fella.

What do you mean?

Your physical abilities.

Your speed, the way you can jump.

I never saw a man capable of doing what
I saw you do.

It was just the adrenaline.

It was a lot more than that.

And adrenaline don't explain how you can
heal so quick either.

No.

You're different.

You get some rest now. We can gab later.

Hold it.

Why did you bring me here?

Because I wanted to talk to you.

About what?

About helping me rescue my son.

John went to NAMM in 71 as a chopper
pilot.

In 73, his base was overrun by a
battalion of NVA.

Last anybody ever heard of him was a
Mayday as his chopper went down.

Pentagon has listed him as an MIA for
the last 20 years.

The military's given up on him.

I've gone over there twice.

Spent every cent I have on two aborted
attempts to find him.

This... This house is all I've got left.

But I know that John's still alive
somewhere in Cambodia.

How do you know?

I got this.

A fellow I know in Bangkok.

He's gotten information on where John's
being held prisoner.

Who is this guy?

Name's Ed Lowry. He's an ex -Army
intelligence spook.

Runs a nightclub there. He's
underground.

Deals in black market information.

Works both sides of the streets.

It sounds like a rat. How do you know
he's credible?

Oh, he's credible, all right.

In his line of work, you're either
credible or you're dead.

I'm going to Bangkok.

Come with me, Lambert.

Yeah, if I'm very grateful to you.

But I am in a difficult situation here.

And I'm afraid I can't do what you're
asking of me.

You don't believe me about John being
alive.

No, it's not that.

And believe me, it's not that I don't
want to help you.

It's just that I can't.

You did the correct thing, Captain. You
took the responsible path.

Visual mode.

What have you got on an M .I .A. Army
lieutenant named John Rankin?

But, Captain... From 1970 forward.

As you wish, Captain.

Rankin, John E.

Lieutenant, U .S. Army, 040 -85362.

Listed missing, Ho Bin, 9 -14 -73.

Unconfirmed sighting in NVA POW custody,
10 -2 -73.

Post -war MIA search team
investigations, negative.

1977 -83 -88.

Hold on, Captain.

Here's something.

A videotape delivered to the U .S.
Embassy in Bangkok.

showed Rankin to be alive and in the
custody of a fringe Cambodian rebel

offering his release for $10 million.

So Ed was right.

John is still alive.

What's the date on that entry?

That would be three days from today's
date.

This is about to happen.

That is correct, Captain. The videotape
will be delivered to the U .S. Embassy

exactly 71 hours and 28 minutes from
now.

Keep going, sir. The next entry.

Two days later, Ransom was paid by a U
.S. corporate entity.

So John is coming home.

I'm afraid that won't be the case,
Captain.

What do you mean?

Despite receiving payment, Captain
subsequently executed Rankin.

Not yet, they haven't. Get us visas.

Charter a jet to Los Angeles. From
there, a non -stop flight to Bangkok.

Earliest possible departure. Captain!

Such an unfamiliar sortie could result
in your own death. You are not trained

for this. I will learn fast. I find no
logic in this.

Selma, it's a human thing.

I'm going with you.

What changed your mind?

It doesn't matter.

Get packed.

Grab your passport. We're leaving
tonight. It takes three days to get

need plane tickets, flight connections.

It's already done.

Already done?

How? You wouldn't believe my travel
agent.

Wait, wait, wait a minute.

Who are you?

Where do you come from?

How can you do the things you can do?

I'm going to do this.

But the deal is, you don't ask.

in the sunlight.

Remove his manacle.

The Japanese are quite clever making
these video cameras so small and easy to

use.

Wouldn't you agree?

Start it.

Identify yourself.

Rankin. John E.

Lieutenant.

United States Army.

04085362.

How many toes do you have on your left
foot?

Four. How did you lose the fifth one?

Clarkson. At what age?

Eleven. Show his face clearly.

The sum for ransom is $10 million,
American.

Instructions for delivery of the money
will follow.

What time does Larry's club open?

After dark.

Anywhere else we can find him? You know
where he lives?

No, he just said come to the club.

You're sure he's going to be there?

Says he's there every night.

From our sources and customs,

Rackett's father arrived in the country
two hours ago.

What is he doing here?

And this man is traveling with him.

Who is he?

They have no information about him, no
background.

Why are these people here?

There is a paper trail.

This is from our mail surveillance of
certain individuals.

Lowry.

He must have found out we have Rankin.

You should have.

You knew I would.

Well, I figured maybe.

Hell, who knows?

Nothing's for sure.

And now this latest report on America's
MIAs from our correspondent in

Washington, D .C. You brought the money.

You know where John is.

How did you lose the fifth one?

Once again, you are watching videotapes
delivered to the U .S. Embassy today

offering Lieutenant Rankin's release for
$10 million.

While the U .S. State Department has not
yet issued an official statement...

Sources there indicate the ransom will
be paid.

We'll continue our update.

He's going to be released.

Don't believe it.

They'll never release him.

He knows too much.

I know these people.

They'll kill him anyway.

The minute they get the money.

That's right, Ev. We've got to get John
out now.

Where is he?

Come on.

We're that close to finding out where
John is.

I don't know what to do now.

I'll get some sleep for starters. I
think you need it.

Visual mode, Selma.

Now we've got to find him.

Scan for any other data on him. Anything
at all.

Scanning.

Nothing, Captain.

Run information specific to MIA
locations.

Numerous rumors of alleged MIA
sightings, all uncorroborated.

An ex -NVA, General Vinh, hospitalized
in Thailand, made deathbed revelations

clear his conscience, detailing accurate
information on several unsolved MIA

cases.

Three teeth and the dog tags of a
Marine... Wait a minute. Who is this

Vinh? The former commander of North
Vietnamese POW operation.

And he didn't mention Rankin in his
statement?

No.

Surely he would have known everything.

About Rankin. Why didn't he mention it?

Perhaps because General Vinn spoke only
of unsolved cases.

And Lieutenant Rankin was dead and his
case was closed by that time.

By what time?

General Vinn will make his statement
four months from now.

Which means that General Vinn is still
alive.

Please do not speak with him too long as
it will tire him.

General Vinn, you have visitors.

General Vinn, I'm Darien Lambert.

This is Everett Rankin. We're from the
United States.

In 1973, Everett's son, Army Lieutenant
John Rankin, was taken prisoner by your

army.

I believe you know about this.

And you know where he is.

The knowledge you have of Lieutenant
Rankin and other MIAs weighs heavy on

heart.

You want to tell what you know.

Clear conscience.

How do you know that?

I believe you've already formulated
these thoughts.

You want to share your knowledge with
the world soon.

Cleanse your soul.

How do you know these things?

How can you see what's in my heart?

Tell us where Lieutenant Rankin is,
General, before it's too late to save

life.

This man has been kept from his son for
20 years.

You can bring father and son together.

You can give me back my son.

Paper.

Paper.

Paper.

There is landing on Somwa River.

across Cambodian border.

22 kilometers north is point.

One half kilometer west of point is
compound.

Cambodian rebels steal your son after
war. Hold him for the value

of price.

Colonel Tan is the leader.

Warning. It is very bad men.

They're very cunning soldiers.

Go. Now.

Now.

Go. Thank you.

I've got a source here for
transportation and weapons. I can get us

want, but it'll take some time.

Anything you can't get by tonight, we're
not taking. We don't have time.

Get me out.

Welcome to Cambodia.

John and I have been close since the day
he was born.

He always wanted to be just like me.

Boy, did we play at some gym together.

I'm pretty good at that game, see?

So, he had to be as good as I was.

And, fair enough, before long, he was
beating me by half the time.

I love that kid, Darren.

Thank you.

You go 21 clicks north, then beach the
boat just below this bend in the river.

We'll move slow and quiet.

We'll be okay.

John wanted to be an army sergeant just
like me.

I wanted him to be an officer because I
knew it was a better life.

So I made him apply to OCS.

And before long, there he was.

Gold bars on his shoulders.

I finished third in his class.

It was the greatest day of my life.

I never knew my father.

I've never had a kid.

You will.

It gets right down to it.

It's the only thing that matters.

We should be getting close now.

We tripped in now.

Too soon, Tran.

We're too far from shore.

Congratulations, Captain. You are
underwater for six minutes, 13 seconds.

personal best.

Eb!

Did you learn that from Rambo?

Rambo learned it from me.

Is this stuff going to be okay?

It should be as soon as it dries out.

It's an old deck of cards.

Yeah.

I had it for...

Twenty -some years.

I brought him along for John.

He always loved opening a brand -new
deck.

Like it was a special moment.

I'm gonna take a look around.

Selma, he'd scanned the river edge
north, within a two -kilometer range.

pinpoint the location of a recently
operated internal combustion marine

Initiating scan.

I find three, Captain. Would the one in
question be over or under five liters?

Over. 1 .13 kilometers north -northeast
at 19 .7 degrees.

What's our time frame, Selma?

I lost my watch in the river.

The ransom payment will be wire
-transferred from the U .S. to a bank in

in two hours and seven minutes, Captain.

Your father tried to save you today.

My father?

Unfortunately, he died trying.

We're getting very close now.

We'll secure the boat, then we hit the
compound.

Stay sharp around those guards.

These people know how to fight.

How'd you do that?

Okay, okay.

Don't ask.

There's the boat only one guard will
take him out first

Where'd you get that?

Don't ask.

Give me Geneva.

Colonel.

Inform me the moment the money has been
deposited.

How long before they kill John? I need a
precise time frame.

I'm afraid I cannot provide precise
information, Captain. The exact time

Lieutenant Rankin's execution has never
been historically documented, but it is

assumed to have taken place shortly
after the ransom was paid.

How long is that from now?

Ten minutes, Captain.

Okay, Ev.

Here's another don't ask.

Schematic projection mode, Selma.

Projecting, Captain.

Distance in ETA?

Distance, 1 .45 kilometers.

ETA indeterminate, depending on terrain.

Structural layout?

Scan for body heat signature.

Aggregate heat map indicates the
presence of approximately 25 average

humans.

No word yet, Colonel.

Distance, Selma.

400 meters, Captain.

Periscope mode, Selma.

Zoom in.

Pull out.

Van right.

Tighter.

Tighten more.

It's John.

The call is from Geneva.

We have made the deposit of $10 million.

The money has just been transferred.

Summer, we need a diversion.

Access archival sound tape of a Vietnam
firefight.

Get ready to project it from the far
side of the compound, simulating an

from that direction.

Scanning archives.

Tape access and ready, Captain.

As soon as the diversion draws the
troops from the compound, I'll go in for

John. You cover me. I'll bring him out.
And we're down the path to the river.

We hit the dock.

We're on a boat for Kansas.

Simulate now, Soma.

You're going home.

Detonate Selma.

Now!

Head for the boat.

Show yourself!

Okay! Okay!

So... You're unarmed!

He never gave up on me.

Never.

Water's coming up.

All three.

That's a deal.

There will be a lot of questions when
you dock, Captain.

Questions you can't unjudge. I know it,
Selma.

Ev,

you ready to drive this thing?

I don't know how to thank you.

I don't know how to thank you two
enough.

For what?

For teaching me what it means to have a
father.

And what it means to have a son.

John, you take good care of him.

Where'd he come from?

How could he do what he does?

Don't ask.
