I know.

I need my head examined.

I just never quite got over the guy.

Well, if it's any consolation, I'm in the same boat.

You and Slade, I thought you were... Yeah, kind of.

But... Because of Ebony?

Can you keep a secret?

He hasn't got long to live.

Who's Slade?

How come?

He doesn't talk about it.

But I've given him a lot of thought.

I made a decision.

I'm going to try and have his baby.

There's still time.

A baby? Ruby, are you nuts?

Oh, probably.

But what the hell?

I figure if they go ahead with this rebellion, how's the medic going to come

back anyway?

Siva, if you really care about Michael, you should tell him how you feel.

Where is Sector 4? I've never even been there.

Stupid work party.

What have they got you on?

Graffiti control.

Perhaps if I can find the place.

Oh, yeah, you go through Secret 12 and... I wasn't asking you, traitor.

Anyway, shouldn't you be getting back to your torture lessons?

No, I find that kind of living with you is actually torture enough.

It's kind of quiet around here this morning.

Yeah, you know why?

No blabbermouth.

Ellie, you can be a bit of a blabbermouth yourself sometimes, you

Where is Gal anyway?

She went off to Liberty to be with Lack.

A sore point.

Well, I'm out of here.

I'll see you guys later. Where are you going, right?

The power station.

I'm on first shift.

Oh, didn't I tell you?

I fixed it for you to work with Celine in the kindergarten in Sector 10.

Oh.

Well, it means a later start.

And you get to work together, so, um... I hope that's okay.

Yeah, sure it is.

Why wouldn't it be?

Yeah, great idea.

Thanks, Amber.

Did he say when he'll be back?

I told you, he didn't say anything. He just took the bike and left. Yeah, that

was yesterday.

He could be bringing Mega back here.

We should at least be posting guards along the route into town.

Is that what you think?

That Rem's going to sell us out?

I'm saying it's a possibility.

Not a chance.

He's my business partner. He'll be back.

Your what?

Business partner?

Yeah.

Kind of.

Exactly what kind of business, Max?

The business of bringing Mega down.

Just like you.

Down!

Hey, the man I wanted to see.

Have you got the notebook on you?

I should have known.

I mean, all my planning, but I didn't see what was right under my nose.

How could you?

You put your faith in me, and I betrayed you.

No, no, no. I wasn't thinking of you. I meant Mega.

And there he was, smiling in my face the whole time.

Just waiting to stab me in the back.

I guess you two must have got pretty close, huh? Me and Mega? Oh, please.

I could never work him out.

He's a cold fish.

Always playing the percentages.

Like a machine.

I used to admire those qualities.

He's gonna be hard to beat.

He has no emotions.

No weaknesses.

Everyone has a weakness, Javi.

I mean, I'm living proof of that.

So do you really prefer this liberty over cyberspace?

Well, you can't get a decent latte, but apart from that, it's okay.

Sammy, look, try not to worry about Gal.

I'm sure she'll be fine.

I'm not worried. If she wants to take a stupid risk, it's her own lookout.

She knows to be careful when she's outside of the zone.

Why didn't you warn her about Leg?

I thought you women stuck together.

She wouldn't listen.

Listen, Sammy, I know it might sound weird, but falling for the wrong guy is

just something that she's got to do right now to...

Get it out of her system.

It's really nice that you care about her, though.

I don't care about anyone.

Hey, Meg is on his way over here.

What does he want?

Who does he want, you mean? I think we know the answer.

Ellie, will you knock it off?

Okay, Jack's only doing what he set out to do. Yeah, with your encouragement.

Yeah, well, he doesn't have to enjoy it so much.

Did I come at a bad time?

What do you want, Meg?

The broadcast.

Introducing the punishment program.

I just wanted to say, if you change your mind about it, I might be prepared to

relax one or two of the laws.

Which laws?

The curfew.

Are you offering me a bribe?

Call it a trade.

Yeah, all right.

Can't believe it. Ellie. No, Amber, don't bother.

You know what?

I don't belong here with you city leaders.

I'll leave you to your trading.

Hey, do you want to go work on my drawings?

Sure. All right, let's go.

I leave you in charge for a couple of days, and look what I find. What?

These sums don't add up, Daryl. But we made a profit.

Yeah, I know we did. The question is, how much of that went in your pocket?

None of it.

I swear.

Come on, pal. You know who you're dealing with.

You must have skimmed some off the top.

What? You told me not to.

Lex, I'm going to let it go this time.

But you're on probation, pal.

Remember that.

Ram, there you are.

How'd you go with Mega? Did you manage to get that software?

I've got someone on it. It's just a matter of time.

What about you?

Jay thought you'd defected.

Something about coming back with a pile of technos?

No, not quite.

Oh, my God.

What is this? Look, it's okay, Lex. I can vouch for Java.

She's one of us now. One of us?

I think I'll be the judge of that.

Come on, Javi.

Don't Javi me.

I don't know what I got myself into.

Start talking, Ram.

He's not a bad person.

He's just misunderstood, that's all.

What's to understand?

He's an alley cat.

Tell me, Ebony.

What do they see in Lex?

Takes all kinds.

I think you should go for a gal.

You do?

Sure.

Have your fun.

And then kick his butt out the door.

Java? So it's true.

What are you doing here? I was beginning to wonder that myself. Now it's

suddenly very clear.

What's the matter, Ebony? You look rattled.

Not so tough without a pride of lions to back you up.

Java, don't do that. Stay out of it, Ram.

This is a family thing.

You think I'm scared of you?

Oh, you better be.

What are you waiting for?

Go on, delete me and get it over with.

I wouldn't give you the satisfaction.

No, this has got to be done right.

I'll wait till you're ready.

Why can't we talk about that?

Whatever's happened, she's still your sister.

Yeah, she's been there, making my life a misery.

Now she's going down.

We finish this today.

Well, nothing of Java?

Not in the safe zone.

Then start looking outside it. I want her found.

Woman, eh, Jack?

Just never know what they're going to do next.

Oh, I didn't know you and Jabba were an item.

We're not.

I don't allow emotions to cloud my intellect. I've seen what it can do to

people.

Prevents them from fulfilling their destiny.

Oh, I didn't mean you and Allie. I'm sure you guys will work things out.

Yeah.

Now then, what have you got for me?

They know where we are. They know how many we are.

We're spitting ducks here. Sure. If Java tells them. She won't.

How do you know?

I just know.

Oh, that's very reassuring.

Slade, we have to stop her leaving town.

She's not going to be leaving in a hurry.

She's in the stables.

Well, I guess it's up to me.

Jay, you're not going anywhere.

Try and stop me.

Look, I think you're looking at this the wrong way round.

Jarvis come over to our side.

She has inside knowledge of Mega's operation.

She can help us. Well, then talk to her. Get her to call off the feud.

You know, I'll try.

She can't wipe out her own fifth receiver.

Is she going to do that?

It's not the first time she's tried.

It'll be the last.

There you go.

You're done. Go from here.

Take a break.

Thanks. I thought I could do with a coffee.

Do you... No.

You're all right. Go ahead. Are you sure?

I don't mind.

What are we doing, Celine?

I think it's called avoiding the issue.

We need to talk.

I know.

Later, okay?

Good.

Now, do you want that coffee?

Yeah, I'd love a coffee.

You should have told me.

I didn't know how.

Look, you can still have your rebellion.

You'll just have one less rebel.

So don't give me a hard time, okay?

When it's all over, we'll talk about Mega.

Yeah, if you're still alive.

Thanks for the vote of confidence.

Look, I don't care about the damn rebellion, alright Java?

I care about you.

I have to do this, Ram.

If you really care so much, stay out of it.

Hey.

Is Ellie okay?

She's gone for a walk outside.

I don't think she's talking to me.

Why take it out on you? I'm the one who's selling out.

I encouraged you.

How?

By being selfish.

By wanting the easy life for Brady and me.

Now look what's happened.

Jack has virtually gone over the techno.

You're having to play along.

Trudy, it's not selfish to want your child to eat.

I want the same thing.

And Jack...

You know, don't worry about him. He's far too intelligent to fall for Magga's

line.

He'll come back to us.

You'll see.

Right, okay, you see, the prisoners just wind us right around the maze, and then

the door's close behind him, so once he's chosen a direction, he has to face

whatever lies ahead.

And can he ever escape?

He's a slim shot. And that's only if he makes all the right choices.

Of course, we can make the choices for him, or we can get the audience to do

What was your inspiration?

Well, rats.

More rats.

You don't have to answer that.

It's good, Jack. It's very good.

So, what are you going to do?

I don't have much choice, do I?

You could leave town.

Okay, bad idea.

But she couldn't hurt you if you were unarmed. Maybe you could talk some sense

into her.

You want me to go meet her with no weapon?

Stevie, you're forgetting that she set me up as the bride of Zoot.

Filled my head with nightmares.

She's got this coming.

This is Java you're talking about. We grew up together.

Played sandcastle, swapped clothes, boyfriends. You're breaking my heart.

you're breaking mine, both of you.

You had your revenge, Ebony. You kept her locked up in that cage.

Now let her go.

Too late.

You know, it would be stupid to stop being friends over something like that.

That's exactly how I feel. I wanted to talk to you about it, but I was scared

you'd be mad at me.

Why would I be mad at you?

I don't know. I just didn't want to give you the wrong idea.

Two people that show that they care for each other.

What's wrong with that?

So that's how it was.

And...

I want you to know, May, I do care about you.

But... But nothing.

We're good friends and we always will be.

Right?

Right.

I'm giving out three to one.

Any takers?

What do we win? You've seen the loot around here?

Three to one. Come in.

Hey.

I'm Daryl.

Gail.

Having a good time?

Is it always like this?

Fights and everything?

Liberty, pretty much.

Don't you get scared?

I can take care of myself.

Tell you what, things get rough. You stick with me, all right?

I'm not scared.

It's kind of exciting.

Besides, I've got Lex to take care of me.

Dara, checking on the job?

Sorry, boss. Just taking a break.

We're losing business.

Up to it.

He gets so jealous.

What are you doing? Hey, Lex.

Want some of the action?

What action?

Lottie's giving three to one on Jabba wiping out Ebony.

Get out of here.

Susan.

Steve is in a bad way.

Can't be easy. Now you're going to lose a sister.

Well, I wish I could sympathize, but I'm just kind of hoping they get rid of

each other.

Wait.

Hey, where are you going?

What, I need to get your permission to go to the bathroom now?

Look, Ebony, I've been thinking.

Jay's right.

I'm supposed to be making some decisions around here.

I'm gonna run Java out of town.

No. Well, why not?

Well, because I said so.

Oh, is Slade going all mushy on me?

I'm just protecting my investment.

Is that what I am to you? No.

Ebony, look, I've saved your life a couple of times.

I don't want to see you throw it away now.

Just stop worrying.

I can handle Java.

How's the new generation of technos coming along?

Oh, it was fun. I only wish they'd invent virtual diapers, though.

Tell me about it. Hey, do you guys want something to eat?

Yeah, thanks.

Get it while it's hot.

I'm going to crash and print a city net for a while.

Catch up with propaganda.

Are you coming?

I'll be along soon.

Java, tell me, is there nothing I can say?

You could wish me luck.

You're out of luck, Java.

There'll be nobody getting hurt in Liberty without my say -so.

Just leave town now, and we'll forget this ever happened.

And you are?

I'm the sheriff around these parts, as good as.

Slade, right?

Yeah.

Give me the weapon.

Sure.

Here.

Karma, no!

Not so tough after all, huh?

Don't worry.

It was set on stun.

He'll come around in a few minutes.

Javi, wait.

Why don't you just leave it on stun, all right?

For old time's sake.

Sorry, Ram.

She's out there.

I'm going to talk to her.

Steven, no!

It won't do any good.

Ruby?

Come on.

I'll be in my room.

There's one sister loves you.

Jay, can you give me any advice?

Well, smart money's in Java.

My money's in you.

Thanks.

Oh, Jay, just one thing.

Was I wrong?

You and Amber...

Did you really not have a thing together?

You were wrong.

But you'd like to have, though, huh?

You still would, wouldn't you?

I don't know why I'm so upset.

I always knew this day would come.

You and Ebony have got a lot closer lately.

No, it's not that.

They're both a part of me.

I know.

Lex.

I've been so mean to you. No.

I have to tell you.

It was revenge.

I didn't want us to break up.

You were always the one for me.

It was always you.

You'll pay for it.

I see you've made some new friends.

That's nice.

They obviously don't know the real Ebony, though, do they?

Maybe you can never know another person unless they're flesh and blood.

Meaning? Eva wants us to start again. Forget it. You don't believe me?

Even if it's true, you know I can't do that.

If I don't do this now, I'll spend the rest of my life looking over my

just waiting for you to do it to me.

She's the real evil one here.

Not me.

I want you all to know that.

I don't want to do this, Java.

It's mega we should be gunning for. Oh, this rebellion I hear so much about?

We're getting ready to make our move.

There are good people here, Java. You mean like Slade?

He must have really liked you.

That's right.

He was begging for your life, so I finished him. And now it's your turn.

Java!

Ebony.

Siva, I'm here.

Look, try not to talk, okay?

We're going to be okay.

Miss Java, is she okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, she's fine.

Promise me you'll make up, you two.

I promise.

Siva?
