He was around.

He wouldn't come.

Does anybody want to say a few words?

Yeah.

I'd like to.

You didn't even know them.

Lex did right. I didn't know either of these girls.

Well, Steve were a little.

All I know is no one here wanted it.

No one.

We all saw what happened, but it didn't make it any better.

There's just no one to blame.

It's a tragedy. I am not listening to this.

Java called Ebony out. Yeah.

Now she's dead. And so was my Siva.

And Ebony isn't.

There's your tragedy, Slade.

That. That!

That is still alive.

We have learned that a number of illegal goods, including alcohol and certain

games, are being smuggled into the city by unscrupulous scum.

We will be introducing a new punishment regime.

It will show no mercy to our enemies.

Meantime, be assured, the people's peace and the people's law will be

maintained.

Can I go now?

Of course.

Though we will need you back here later today.

What for?

To announce the details of the new punishment regime, of course.

Oh, and Amber, I think a little more practice, don't you?

We don't want people to think you don't believe in what you're saying.

Jack, I've been testing a few refinements on the punishment program.

the results on disk. Would you like to see?

Sure, yeah.

Are you sure it's genuine?

Of course.

And it's yours, Samuel.

All you gotta do is get rid of the merchandise.

But it's smuggled goods.

Hmm. Present for a lady, is it?

Well, I'm sure whoever it is will be mighty pleased to receive something like

this. But what if I get caught?

Who's gonna catch a smart fella like you?

Well, you just have to find someone smarter.

No! Wait!

I'll do it.

Once you get rid of them, bring me the loot.

All of it.

And you can have the locket.

And maybe that's special someone.

What's that?

Nothing.

Sammy, have you seen Celine this morning?

No. Why?

I've been testing various pain levels. It's a hard one to assess accurately.

Everyone seems to have different thresholds.

Level six.

Did you object?

I'll just bring it back to level four.

No, let's try again.

Level four.

Better. Huh?

Um... Of course, once we put it in the gaming environment and we see them

walking through the maze with the graphics and the music and the

it'll all look better anyway.

It's not just the last element we needed.

Great, Jack. Very neat. Program it in.

We'll announce the system this afternoon.

Just one thing, Mega.

Yes, Jack.

What's Amber?

What if she doesn't understand it? What if she refuses to back it?

She won't refuse.

Trust me.

Where is she?

May. Oh, Sammy, will you stop following me?

May, can I ask you a question? What?

Suppose a guy gave you a present, like a locket.

Would you take him seriously?

Sammy, what are you doing with these? Nothing.

Then where did you get them?

Nowhere.

Sammy, give them to me. No, I've got to sell them to get the locket for Gal. For

Gal?

Sammy, you know what... they'll do if they find you with this stuff?

It's a Lego.

So is drinking.

Why don't you stop Celine?

What do you mean?

She thinks no one knows, but I've seen her down by the railway tracks.

Me. What about my locket? Me. Me.

You want to hear a story?

One? There were three little sisters.

Leave it, Lex.

If I were you, I'd watch your back.

You want to call me out, too?

Drop it, Lex. Now.

Let it go.

You are not welcome here, Ebony.

You are not welcome anywhere.

Like her own agreement, then.

I think it was the best of all three.

Amber, I want to tell you I was wrong.

What about?

About Mega.

I wanted to pretend that somehow we could be on his side and it'd be all

It's not, is it?

No.

We need Jay.

If he was here, he'd know what to do. He'd find some way of fighting back.

I'd forgotten what a tigress he could be.

But that's just it. I'm not.

Why hasn't he contacted me for so long? I mean, do you think something's

happened to him? Or maybe he's just forgotten. Maybe he never really loved

and he and I... Rudy, he's outside of the safe zone. How do you expect him to

contact you?

Yeah, I know you're right.

It's just...

With him, I feel safe, you know?

Like everything's gonna be all right.

But without him... God, if anything happened... Hey.

I'm sure he's safe.

I'm thinking of you.

Don't you promise?

That's honor.

Some tigress, huh?

What would I do without you?

Get lost, gal.

I just wanted to say, I liked her, Siva.

I thought she was really cool.

And I'm sorry.

And if there's anything I can do... You don't want to get too close to me.

Why? Because I'm dangerous.

Me? That's stupid.

Is it?

Zandra, Tyson, and now Siva.

I should have been a monk.

I don't think you'd be any good at that at all.

Can't stop a tree falling on you by thinking.

Can you?

Anyway, even if it was true, I'd still take the risk.

What? Of getting close.

I mean, I'm here for you, Lex.

If you want me to be.

I have to go.

Sure. Go.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Can we talk?

Sure.

Mega still thinks that Java's alive.

We need to take advantage of that.

Now. You're a cold beggar, aren't you?

What if we make him think that she's come over to us?

If he thinks that Java's with us as well, that'll make him jittery.

And if I know Mega, he'll dig in, build his defenses, protect what he's got.

Is he trying to take over, Jay?

Right now, there's no one out there in the Badlands to take control.

Mega won't go near it.

It's our chance to find out which of the tribes are prepared to join us.

But we have to do it now, before he realizes what's happened.

Tell me.

Is there anything left between you and Ebony? No.

Nothing. That's all over. But you know her, yeah?

You think she's in any kind of state to help us?

I don't know.

I mean, it's hard to know what she's feeling. Why?

Because maybe you're right.

Maybe I've got a plan of my own, too.

Hey, Daryl.

Yes?

You prepared to go back into the city?

What are you doing here?

What does it look like I'm doing?

Come on, Sam.

No.

Want to buy me another? You've had enough.

It's the lady's vision. Read it, creep.

I mean it.

What are you trying to prove?

Just because we... I don't want to talk about it. We don't have to do this now.

It's just... That's destruction. This is what I do.

This is an illegal establishment.

We're all under arrest.

Ellie,

you don't know what you're talking about.

Listen to yourself. You're so wrapped up in your geeky little world, you don't

know what you're doing. What is going on?

Maybe you can tell us, Amber. You're the one selling pain and humiliation as

justice.

I need some air.

Okay, because you just opened your mouth and let your belly rumble.

Honestly, what me and Meg are doing is the only way.

If she can't see that, then...

Honest, I want to know. Sorry.

Wow, I never thought I'd see those two end up like this.

No.

Judy, I have to go.

Oh, of course. The announcement.

Yeah.

Amber, we have to do something.

What?

Meg has won.

The sooner we accept that, the better.

I know you don't want to talk, but we have to.

We both agreed that we're friends. You don't have to wine.

And you don't have to drink.

You do it, Sam.

It takes the whole weight.

All the thoughts, feelings, memories.

You don't know what it's like otherwise.

Maybe I do.

You think there's nothing in my life I'd rather forget?

Stupid. And in the open?

Sammy!

What is he doing?

Trying to get himself arrested.

He's in some deal to sell a legal game so he can get Galagold Lockett or

something.

Thinks she'll fall straight into his arms.

They're never going to understand us, are they?

Men.

Oh, mind you, a gold locket.

And that's settled then.

Finally?

Settled. Here.

You're a mess.

Where is he going?

To pay respects again.

He knew them, didn't he?

Yeah, he knew them.

One of them quite well.

Hey, I'll let you off the rest of your tour.

Really?

Yeah, if you go now.

Come on, get up.

Okay.

You can use the black market tunnel. It's still open.

I'll tag along for backup. Then head back to the mall and see how things are

shaping up.

I'm coming with you.

No, wait a minute.

I want to get back to the mall, all right?

I've got no clothes here.

Jay and Daryl will meet with the other tribes, see if they're ready to join the

Alliance. Only be careful they don't get the idea of turning you in instead.

Once we're ready, Jay will contact Amber, explain Daryl's role.

What about our great leader?

He's going to stay here, Slane, with the women?

I need to persuade Ebony to do something for us.

You've got to be joking, aren't you? Lex, that witch was not part of the

Without her, this whole plan falls apart.

So are you in or not?

Just keep her away from me.

There was something between you, wasn't there?

Me and Java?

Yeah.

There was always something between us.

Always me with my stupid little fantasy of virtual reality.

That's what got in the way.

Thought I was leaving you, didn't you, Chubby?

You've gone ahead and left me.

Right when I wanted to live here.

In the real world.

Oh, it's funny, isn't it, Ruby?

No, it's not funny at all.

Why did Jeff and Ebony hate each other so much?

Sure, I can say that.

Because they had done so many unforgivable things to each other.

Yeah.

They had.

That wouldn't be telling you, though. True.

Leave would be.

I did that.

You know, I brought them back together and sat them at each other's throats.

I saw them as wild cats and I thought, oh, fun.

Oh, great.

So I started the machine up, you know?

This is how it ended.

Pretty real, isn't it?

If you're looking for someone to blame, Ruby, blame me.

Sometimes blame's too easy.

Were you and she in love?

I never had the time to find out.

Ram.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, I'm going.

Don't do this, Jack, please.

I'm going to do it, Ellie.

And you want to know why? Because we have tried every other way.

Me guess what? The only way we're ever going to create order in this world is

the one we impose by force.

Not by weapons, but by technology.

His and mine.

That's all you see, isn't it? Technology.

You've stared so long at your computer screens that you've gone blind.

You know what? I don't need this.

Okay, and as a matter of fact, I don't need you.

What are you saying?

Okay, Ellie, it's over.

Alright?

Finito. You and me, finished.

Now, if you don't mind, I've got work to do.

Don't be scared.

But they look like they're going to fight.

He's just negotiating a safe passage through the tunnel.

Fine, if there's a fight, we're here to back him up.

You okay, Lex?

You are expensive.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I'm bagging you down.

There's a lot of techno activity on the other side.

The team can make us really crack down since we've gone.

But I don't know how much longer they can keep the tunnel open.

How long do we go through?

Within the hour.

We're just checking it's clear.

Okay.

We wait.

It's all here.

That's as well as smart.

Good boy, Samuel.

Am I lucky?

Ah, of course.

Here you go.

Hope the little lady likes it.

Will the beam work?

Work?

Oh, sure. Yeah.

Anyway, much dash.

Craft you and all.

You're out, Samuel.

There now follows an important announcement by our president.

Order, safety, and security for all.

These are our aims.

And today we announce a new system of justice designed to put an end, once and

for all, to all those who seek to undermine them.

It is a new system of justice that will punish our enemies, however they try to

strike us, and whoever they are.

Because they are your enemy, you will have the power to choose the extent of

their punishment.

This boy has stolen your food.

He is your enemy.

How will you punish him?

Choose a level.

Register your vote.

Then watch as the people's justice is carried out.

And for our worst enemies, the rebels who fought against us, you can choose

ultimate penalty.

Level 10.

Termination. Our enemies are about to feel the weight of the people's justice.

They will be defeated and destroyed.

Our world and our order will prevail.

Is that it?

Yes.

I'd like to go back to the mall.

You're free to go.

A triumph.

You've done well, Jack.

You're more talented than I suspected.

And I think I can trust you, can't I? Oh, of course.

Good.

There's something I want to show you. Something I think you'll find rather

impressive.

What you got there, kid?

Illegal goods?

You're back.

A little less volume on the obvious control, huh?

Matt.

Ray said you told her Jay was with you.

Yeah.

Well, is he all right?

Yeah. Yeah.

He'll be in touch.

Soon.

He's got to do some things for us.

Good to see you, gal.

You okay?

No. I'm tired. I'm hungry. I'm dirty.

I'm going to take a shower.

Sammy, you can be an angel and make me something to eat.

Sure.

I just wanted to know if you're okay.

I hated them just as much as I loved them.

Always in the way.

Always fighting.

Always scheming.

But always there.

Till now.

Till now!

Sorry. I'm so sorry.
