Original subtitles

All the souls who have faithfully departed

through the mercy of God

rest in peace.

For the king!

Mademoiselle, are you hurt?

No, but we will never defeat the English

if we do not get these soldiers across the river.

Pour la France!

- Pour la France! - Pour la France!

Pour la France!

Vive la France!

Vive la France!

What's that commotion?

Vive la France!

Sir, they seem to be waving a banner.

Surrendering?

No, sir.

The solders seem to be roused.

Vive la France! Vive la France!

You bring that flag bearer down.

Aye, sir.

Vive la France!

Vive la France!

Ah!

Jean!

Joan of Arc successfully displaced

with minimal disruption.

Auditory link and vocal relay established.

All dialects normalized.

Joan, exit behind you.

Follow the illuminated passage

toward the red light for integration and armament.

Welcome to Crimson Havoc.

Welcome.

My name is Aria Wellman.

You all are among the deadliest and most influential

warriors the world has ever known.

Are we...

Speaking is going to take a little bit of getting used to.

As none of you can speak modern English,

a language interface was applied during your transfer

so that we can all communicate.

Are we... deceased?

Are you God?

You are in the future.

You have all traveled through time.

We are not dead?

Mm-mm.

We remain flesh and blood?

- Yes. - Then I can kill you.

You can be killed.

All of you.

That's kind of the point.

You are here to fight in our tournament.

I represent a company called the Temporal Combat Authority.

Our company has discovered a way to source

the most lethal combatants in all of history.

You're here to fight each other to the death.

Why should we fight for you?

Our wars are not yet won.

Well, to be transparent,

for our entertainment.

The winner will go back to his or her time

armed with the knowledge of their enemies,

and you will be able to defeat them

because you'll know their every move.

And how will this winner be decided?

A fight to the death.

The last one standing wins.

If we die, does history not change?

No. It doesn't work like that.

Extractions do not alter recorded history.

How will I compete?

I can lead armies, but I have no army here,

and I am not a warrior skilled in hand-to-hand combat.

I have never killed, and I will not begin now.

My soul is not to forfeit.

You will have intelligence on all of your competitors.

You all have a very unique set of skills,

and that's what makes Crimson Havoc so entertaining.

What if you refuse to fight?

If we do not kill, there will be no victim.

A refuse to fight is a forfeit,

and the penalty is death.

The magic that brought us here can easily destroy us.

Our legacy might vanish with us.

Put out your arms.

Good choice.

You might feel a little pinch.

These chips that I'm implanting in your arms

will give you access to intel on each other.

All the intel is the same.

No one will have an unfair advantage.

You abducted us, imprisoned us,

and now ask us to risk our very lives.

How can we trust that this competition will be fair?

Unfortunately...

You don't have any other options.

I demand to be freed immediately.

If I am not released,

you will feel the full fury of my revenge.

There is only one path to freedom,

and I suggest that you take it.

Crimson Havoc guests, exit through the doors

and proceed to the training room.

Good luck.

Welcome to the training room.

The ammunition is live and the weapons brutal.

Proceed to the chest and select your instruments.

Use this time to prepare.

Good luck.

As resource shortages continue,

Sector 5 officials have launched the Purity Campaign,

offering ration bonuses and energy credits,

for tips leading to the arrest of unregistered individuals.

The world might be gray,

but your view doesn't have to be.

The new Atmosphera Neurosynced Vista screen,

the sky is whatever you want it to be.

In other news, questions continue to swirl

around the Temporal Combat Authority.

The TCA is the organization behind the wildly popular.

Crimson Havoc Combat tournaments.

To some, it's the ultimate sport.

To others, the ugliest mirror of our age.

Wagers soar into the millions,

fortunes are made overnight and just as easily lost.

Officially, their technology is sanctioned entertainment,

broadcast to the masses as cultural unity.

Unofficially, critics say thin oversight

and rapid expansion are concentrating

too much power in private hands.

In a world where food, water, and energy are scarce,

one thing remains abundant:

The spectacle.

Welcome, sector faithful.

You asked for them. We brought them back.

Live from the Temporal Combat Authority Arena,

reborn for your entertainment.

The TCA brings you Crimson Havoc!

Let's meet the combatants and put some faces to those odds.

Attila the Hun!

Attila didn't invade, he erased.

A living storm with no mercy, no borders, and no master.

Oda Nobunaga!

He broke Japan to remake it:

Ruthless, brilliant, and born for fire.

He conquered tradition with gunpowder,

strategies, and unstoppable will.

Ghengis Khan!

From exile to emperor, Khan built

the largest empire in history,

with speed, terror, and a storm of war behind it.

Shaka Zulu!

Turned warriors into weapons,

Shaka redefined battle

with brutal precision, shaping an empire

with silence, force, and the edge of a blade.

Queen Hangbe!

Hangbe led without fanfare,

birthing an army of warrior women

that would echo throughout history.

Boudica!

They took her crown,

so she burned their city.

Boudica rose from ruin to lead a bloody revolt

against the might of Rome.

Mama Huaco!

Warrior matriarch!

She was the first queen and the fiercest.

Huaco protected her people with sling, mace,

and mountain-born range.

Joan of Arc!

Led by visions, feared by kings,

Joan marched through fire with divine fury,

a teenage girl who commanded armies and won.

Cleopatra.

Not just beauty, cunning, charm,

and command, the final queen of Egypt

and the deadliest diplomat of her time.

And?

Intense.

I don't think I can do that again.

Well, you will.

You only have over a billion reasons.

Hmm.

Do you have all the investors lined up?

Yeah.

All you gotta do is sit back, relax, and watch.

Moment of truth.

Good evening, investors and distinguished patrons.

We present for your purchase.

Evaluate their strength and envision their place

in your collection, your state, or your command.

I should kill you now and put you out of your misery.

I am afraid I am not much with weapons of death.

They have not chosen well.

We have all been chosen for a reason.

It is a test from our Lord.

If that is true, then it is a cruel one.

There must be a way for us to free ourselves

and get back home.

Perhaps the way is to work together.

It might be the only key to survival.

Well, the three of us have great leadership skills.

So does Cleopatra.

She doesn't seem to be interested in joining us.

If we are forced to fight, I can defend you both.

The gods favor the bold and the divine.

We must win everyone to our cause, or we are lost.

Listen!

My name is Joan.

Attila, Mama, and I have a proposal.

We're not interested, Joan.

I do not know why I was brought here.

Maybe it's God's will or the devil's artifice.

I must believe there is another way.

If one can be sent home, so can all.

Only if you win.

We spoke of this.

The strong survive, nothing more.

Then they erred when they gathered us.

We will slaughter our captors, and we will find our way home.

Why risk all the blood shed?

Why not try something else first?

The people who kidnapped us made that choice for us.

We will destroy them

and make sure it never happens to anyone else.

It seems like our cue.

- Ready? - Ready.

Let the games begin.

We must act with reason, not rage.

If we turn...

Silence!

What's that?

Poison.

Wait!

We have no choice.

Ladies and gentlemen, our first fight,

Boudica vs. Ghengis Khan.

Please stop fighting each other!

We have a common cause.

No!

No, I beg of you. Stop this.

There is no cause but survival.

Boudica, run!

She better run back to France,

Ghengis Khan vs. Joan of Arc.

Do not move.

I will not rest until all of you are dead.

Oh, conquest denied.

Empire offline.

Thank you.

But why did you save me?

You speak truth.

I trust you to lead us out... Alive.

I will try my best.

I wish it hadn't come to that.

As do I.

But he would have killed us both.

May the souls of the faithfully departed

through the mercy of God rest in peace.

Amen.

Where is that sound coming from?

This is no ordinary battle.

There must be more they're not telling us.

We have to find the others.

Convince them that we need to fight together.

I have loved ones that I am determined to get back home to.

Lead on.

Let's hear it, Sectors.

Our first fight and our first kill.

Oda Nobunaga doesn't waste time

burning his one shot right out of the gate.

And Boudica took a nasty slice but limped out alive.

Let's look at the leader board.

Well, well, our first alliance.

Joan of Arc couldn't rally the combatants in the training room,

but clearly Oda sees something in her.

How long will she hold out without drawing blood?

Is it strategy or stubbornness?

And is Oda her protector or is he just waiting

for the right moment to stab the blade in?

Oh, no, no!

Take a breath.

I'm dead.

No, no, you're alive.

Oh great Khan, supreme ruler of the Mongols.

You're a mighty warrior.

You're a strong warrior.

But it's time for you to rest.

What did you say to him?

Your fight is done. Your soul rides free.

And you just happen to know ancient Mongolian?

You guys, if we don't respect their history,

then all of this is meaningless.

Yeah, Leon.

Yeah, but... Come on, ancient Mongolian?

Just make sure the white room is ready.

This all looks familiar.

I've seen that fallen log before.

Let us stop for a moment.

I will climb for a better view.

Perhaps I will be able to spot the others.

Or at least find our bearings. These woods are a labyrinth.

I shall keep watch.

Show yourself!

It's you.

You nearly struck me.

I thought you were the others.

When we woke up, chaos broke out.

Some had already formed alliances.

And I fought free and fled for my own survival.

How far did you come?

Not too far, but I'm unsure.

Well, join us.

If we unite, we stand a chance. It's the only way.

You have my word, Joan. I keep my promises.

Wait.

I will fight at your side.

Have you seen Mama?

She was there when I first woke.

But she vanished after the fighting.

I thought I spotted her just ahead in the clearing.

But then I heard you coming and lost sight of her.

She might not be far. We should head that way.

I will scout ahead.

No, wait!

Stay close.

If we separate, we are easy prey.

No one will see me.

But I will keep within earshot.

She found the plants.

I see that. So do the buyers.

Her value is already rising.

I don't see anybody.

Attila said they weren't far, so they must be close.

There.

Somebody approaches.

Mama!

Joan, I'm so relieved it's you.

Attila just came through

and he said he'd scout to make sure it was safe.

Oda?

We're allies now?

Joan has my trust.

He's with us.

We're looking for the others in hopes to unite everyone.

I think that might be harder than you expect.

Everybody woke up and thought violence was their only path.

Everybody was trying to kill one another violently.

I tried to stop it, but for my own safety,

I fled to find you.

We saw the same thing with Genghis Khan.

Oda saved me.

He had to kill.

But there was no choice.

Here. Eat.

You must be hungry.

I found this not too far away.

Thank you, Mama.

Thank you for sharing.

Three-way Throwdown, Shaka Zulu vs. Boudica vs. Queen Hangbe.

Stop at once!

What would you have us do?

You're not the boss!

Every fighter for themselves, last man standing!

And the rest dead!

Or we could change the rules.

If we were to make a pact now,

the four of us can ensure we're the last remaining.

Together, we are unstoppable.

Why should we trust you?

The three of us are much stronger and skillful.

We could kill you and be the final three.

You are strong, yes.

But strength alone does not win wars.

With my cunning and your power,

none could stand in our way.

Together, we can defeat our captors.

But first, we must get rid of Joan and the others.

Their mercy is a weakness we cannot afford.

Release me.

That is a smart plan.

But hear me!

When only we four remain, I will show no mercy!

Nor will I!

I would not expect anything less from warriors such as you.

I'll do my part.

Look out!

Are you hurt?

I am not.

Shaka, Hangbe, go! Find the archer!

The pain will fade, and the wound will heal.

Oh, what have we here?

Shaka Zulu and Queen Hangbe

versus Attila the Hun and Oda Nobunaga.

Don't move.

Free us or kill us!

We will not be your prisoners.

We got two of them.

Hold on, let me speak to them.

Free us or kill us.

We are not your enemies.

If we keep fighting, we all lose.

Khan is already dead, and he vanished before our eyes.

Something unnatural is at work.

You are not to be trusted.

What would I gain by lying?

Move or draw your weapon.

We do not want any more blood spilled today.

Join us.

Joan, be careful.

It's all right.

We need to trust each other.

Start by trusting me.

Rock beat royalty, the Queen is dead.

Attila! Attila!

- I'll hunt him down. - Leave him for now.

One less enemy.

We are not here to kill people.

We are here to survive and to free us all.

That sound.

Queen Hangbe goes with Khan.

This is the work of the devil.

By all the gods in the sky.

This isn't holy.

This is more trickery.

Look around you. This is no battlefield.

We're not fighting for honor or a country.

We're pieces on a board

moved for someone else's amusement.

Like a child's toy.

And children are careless with their toys.

Chaos in the North Quadrant.

Attila almost hit Joan with an arrow,

but he didn't miss Boudica. That's her second wound.

Let's take a look at the leader board.

Across the field, we had a three-way brawl

broken up by Cleopatra.

No steel, no shield. Just words.

Now they stand together.

A second alliance is born:

One built on calculated persuasion.

The other on conviction and strategy.

The question is, who survives the night?

Mama Huaco's strike punched a hole

in Cleopatra's alliance.

For the queen, it's the end of the line.

Claimed by the arena.

Returned to the age from which she came.

She restrained?

Mm-hmm.

Okay, good, now get out of here.

She ready?

Getting there.

How is your shoulder?

Much better.

You have my thanks.

We are stronger together.

When we find Attila, he's mine.

As you desire, but do not be too consumed by your wrath.

We must be rid of all of them if we wish to return.

I have grown tired of you telling me what to do.

Why should I listen to someone

who has never fought for her life?

I am a king. I lead from the front.

When I find Attila, I will rip his heart out myself.

The others have passed through here.

Footprints.

They are not far.

There, look ahead.

That must be where our captors hide,

or perhaps where they hide those who disappear.

We're being followed.

Then we move faster.

Or we wait for them.

If we unite, we stand a better chance inside.

Whatever is killing the dead must be stopped.

They won't talk.

They want blood.

I'll stay behind and ambush them.

You three, go ahead.

No. We stay together.

Now that we know they're coming,

we can catch them and convince them.

And if they refuse?

Then we move on.

But I know they will not unite if they are dead.

Or worse.

Let's get into position for when they come.

Oda, you take the high ground?

The rest of us will spread out and wait.

Shaka, I must speak with you.

No time.

You two keep pace with me.

Otherwise we will never catch them.

What's he doing now?

- Let's go. - Wait.

I do not believe it would be this simple.

Shaka Zulu versus Oda Nobunaga.

We need to help.

Stay hidden.

Rushing in means certain death.

We don't want to kill you.

Please reconsider.

We need to every fighter.

Do you submit?

Never.

Reconsider.

Please.

Oh, Shaka drops.

Oda still stands.

No...

No, there is always another way.

No!

If he had not turned on us now, he would later.

Shaka, sit back down. A tech is one the way.

Free me!

Say what you will, but they build a mighty fortress.

Even the hardest stone crumbles.

I have found something.

Save your sword, Master Nobunaga.

This fortress is not of our time.

Our ways don't work here.

Yet I have destroyed many.

Well, this is unexpected.

Four combatants Oda Nobunaga, Joan of Arc,

Attila the Hun and Mama Huaco

heading straight for the TCA fortress walls.

For those of you new to the game,

this is a restricted zone.

You don't storm the castle in Crimson Havoc.

But the TCA has made sure those gates are guarded.

Let's get back in there.

Shh...

There's a sound.

Attention fighters, you are entering a restricted area.

Please return to the combat zone immediately.

Birds that talk?

Attila, put your weapon down.

Any interference with our drones

will be considered an act of aggression.

Our retaliation will be swift.

Thank you for your coop...

Damn it.

Well, we warned them.

What are they doing?

Spread out, take cover.

Mama, your slingshot.

Your god favors you.

Their weapons are powerful.

Have you been badly injured?

I'll survive.

Operator detected.

Weapon gyroscope damaged.

Engage rear triggers for manual override.

Oh!

Joan, what have you found?

I think I just found our way in.

Clever.

How's the queen doing?

AI cerebral upload seems to hold.

She's good to go.

Activate subjects A and B please.

Keep all translators on.

Make it interesting.

How confident are we?

Very.

Move or be moved.

Shaka Zulu versus Genghis Khan and Queen Hangbe.

Attack.

Stand down.

Let her pass.

Let's take him to the surgical theater.

- More adjusting? - Yeah.

No lag. I like that.

Maybe we need to make the attacks more relentless.

The impact readings are a little low,

so let's increase it.

Yes, sir.

I will let the investors know.

Even at this rate, we can increase our demand by 30%.

We've just lost visuals on Oda Nobunaga, Attila the Han,

Mama Huaco and Joan of Arc.

If you're just joining us,

our four combatants blasted their way

into a maintenance hatch

and are now off camera.

This looks like it goes on for miles.

You truly believe they are down here?

We have to keep moving.

There must be something.

They want to stay hidden. We'll never find them.

Have faith.

I have faith in myself.

I've already killed two other fighters.

They assembled great warriors,

but I'm the greatest.

I'm going to win this Crimson Havoc

and go back to my time.

Oda, stay with us.

You only want me to stay because you know you can't win.

I won't attack you until there are no other options.

And if you find these people, I will help you.

But for now, I am going to find and kill Boudica and Cleopatra.

They're most certainly plotting to kill all of us.

Oda, you're being reckless.

Don't leave us. We need to stick together.

I will see you again.

Oda, wait.

Should we go after him?

Yes, but first we must find Joan and the others.

You'll have to do it without me.

The pain is spreading through my body.

My vision seems to be getting blurred.

You look unwell.

It must be something our captors have done to you.

Stay strong.

We will find them and get you feeling better.

This will help for now.

You are playing with us.

No.

Please, kill me now.

The mighty Zulu King who galvanized his whole country?

You want to give up now?

I know what I am fighting for.

I am fighting for the freedom of my people.

Fighting for my nation.

But here, in this place

there is no fighting for such things.

Just demons playing their games

at other people's expense.

If this is the future I fought for, let me die.

As a child, did you ever imagine

you would be more cruel and deadly than the worst of us?

Or did you imagine something better?

After two successful tests,

we will now be testing remote capabilities.

The first test, the subjects were simply

given audio commands, and both sessions

were an absolute success.

We will now be incorporating VR headsets

for more specific, immediate, and instant control.

You control Queen Hangbe, I will control Khan.

Give audio commands to Shaka Zulu.

Shaka Zulu, when you're attacked,

defend yourself at all costs.

Connection lost.

Resurrection sequence activated.

Well, that answers that.

If they die, we can no longer control them.

Shaka Zulu, you may stop fighting.

You are the victor.

There. They went in there.

Come on.

I can't.

Yes, yes, you're tired. Come on.

I'm not just tired.

It's poison.

I can feel it killing me.

I knew we weren't going to make it there the whole way together.

It was you.

Not our captors.

You poisoned me when you were attending

to the wound from the arrow.

From the powder.

I thought we were allies.

When it was prudent.

But now I must win the Crimson Havoc.

With it, I will get that information

to defeat the Romans.

And nothing stands in my way.

Boudica falls.

All hail the Apothecary Queen, Cleopatra.

Why bother with food, fur, or feelings?

Loyal, obedient, disposable.

Just remember, when your subscription ends, so do they.

Pet pods, because love should be manageable.

Oh, that's our third kill.

Boudica is down at the hands of Cleopatra,

who she thought was her ally.

This is unprecedented.

Cleopatra is following the remaining four combatants.

The match zone does not extend into those maintenance tunnels.

No live feed, no telemetry.

They are outside the parameters of the match

and outside the rules entirely.

I don't know what their plan is, or even if they have one,

but whatever it is,

it's not part of the game anymore.

It's massive in here.

Endless halls, all sealed like tombs.

No voices, no footsteps.

Joan, are you certain they're in here?

They have to be.

No one guards an empty space this fiercely.

Shall I break one open?

Perhaps our enemies hide behind them.

No, we must act with wisdom, not with rage.

There's a reason for every lock.

Attila, stop!

One move and your blood stains the floor.

Wait, I could have just kept following you

in the shadows like I've been doing.

Instead I've chosen to show myself.

Is that not proof I seek peace?

Let her go.

I offer truce.

I regret the company I have kept.

They believe only in bloodshed.

I do not.

And what caused the change of heart?

I am not bred for battle.

My place is among the scrolls and courts,

and not fields of war.

I do not trust her.

Nor I.

I have pleaded for unity since the beginning.

I will not turn away the first who seeks it.

But betray us, Cleopatra,

and you will answer to us all.

This is a mistake.

Then we will watch her closely.

Cleopatra, if you deceive us, I will be the one to kill you.

You will not need to.

I wish only to return to my own time.

Bring her out.

Anesthesia 40%.

I get it.

The wars you fought were of a different age,

of a different time.

When your husband, King Prasutagus, died,

Rome betrayed you, but did you give up? No.

You rose against them with a hundred thousand men behind you.

Spare me your speeches.

Tyrants always have new ways to hurt the weak.

Your weapons may be strange,

but your hearts are as black as the Romans.

The gods will judge you.

The Just will always rise.

Think you can cage a wolf?

Take her away.

She's ready.

I'm going to clean this up.

Aria, all good?

Great.

We can't afford any mistakes right now.

That's why I went this route.

How are the investors?

The investors are fine.

Everyone's online and ready.

Good. Focus on that.

Wait. Hold on. I don't see them.

I hear something.

This way.

What do you see?

It's pure water.

No well, no river.

This belongs to Madame Wellman.

What is this, a weapon?

Perhaps to summon the guards.

Or worse.

Press it again.

Don't.

If you touch it, you will die.

She lies.

Just put it down.

Perhaps if we push it, she dies.

She's the problem.

She's dead either way.

You are defenseless now.

No.

- She is helping us. - She is our captor.

We should end this.

That woman holds no power now.

I saw you as specimens.

Your lives were never mine to use.

I'm so sorry.

So she says.

But I vow to help you now.

I can get you home.

All of you, safely.

Says the serpent handing fruit to a child.

You hold the button.

But whose fate?

Does it matter?

What are those boxes you keep looking at, Aria?

Cameras. They're watching us.

The gaze from the gods?

They think so, but they're just humans like me.

Are they watching us now?

No. I have them on a video loop.

But it won't last long.

They're going to figure it out.

Tell us, new friend.

What is the truth here?

What are you hiding?

Whether you survive or not,

you all will be sold to the highest bidder.

Like slaves?

I should push this button right now!

- I am slave to no one! - No!

She tells us this because she trusts us.

She could have withheld the information.

Remember that.

I press this button.

Don't.

I know. It's barbaric. It is unforgivable.

But if you press that button now, you'll die.

I know how to deactivate it.

We are safe?

For now.

Now let me take you all home.

It'll take a little time to power up the time machine.

Hold on. Hold on. I got something. Machine room.

Aria's powering up the time machine.

She's trying to send them back.

She lied to us, Leon.

What can we do?

We can stall her.

I'll shut the machine down remotely.

I have to restart the machine.

Will that take time?

It should just take a few minutes.

We'll patrol the threshold.

Come on!

Remote reinitialization in progress.

That's your big play. Shutting it down?

Let's go find her, Leon,

she's letting a billion dollars get away.

No, she's not.

She's unwittingly pushing the limits.

Welcome back.

Your new assignment:

Kill all the remaining warriors in the machine room.

And Aria?

I don't think she's on our side anymore.

49%.

God grant us speed.

It's the others.

Stand ready.

Stand your ground.

Shadows approach.

Damn it, 61 percent.

Mama Huaco and Attila the Hun versus Ghengis Khan,

Boudica, Shaka Zulu and Queen Hangbe.

81 percent!

Give us speed, o Lord!

Attila!

Let them return to their home.

My spirit rides with you, Mama.

It is a warrior's honor.

May my ancestors be prepared to receive me.

Almost there. 94%.

Joan, on the bottom of the machine,

you'll see a series of switches.

Make sure that they're in the ready position.

You'll know that they're ready

because the lights will turn green.

The lights are green.

The path is prepared.

Yes!

Yes...

What now?

Cleo...

I knew it.

Cleo

99%.

Are the switches ready?

All is as it should be.

Where's Joan?

She remains behind to make certain the glow stays green.

Joan! Do not trust her.

Where is Joan?

Joan!

Oda Nobunaga vs. Queen Hangbe,

Shaka Zulu, and Boudica.

Wait. Stay your hands.

I alone remain.

I am the last.

I am victorious.

I win!

Let her live.

Put down your weapons.

Take Cleopatra to the treatment room.

Lock Aria up in the holding cells.

Is anyone there?

I hear distress.

It's just me.

Madame Wellman?

Don't.

Meet me back at the machine room.

It's two floors down.

The stair is over there.

Take a right at the bottom of the stairway.

I will meet you there.

Okay. And the others?

I'm getting them.

Leon, it's Joan.

She escaped from her cell.

Bring Joan now.

- Joan, I told you! - Silence!

Make haste to the machine room, I shall delay them.

Flee! Now!

Joan of Arc, this is your final warning to surrender.

Lord, guide my hand.

Lend me, as you will.

Shield me from evil and

walk the path of righteousness!

The TCA has confirmed that a minor incident occurred

today inside the Crimson Havoc facility

when several contestants inadvertently entered

a restricted maintenance zone.

Officials say the breach was the result of a navigation error

during a routine match segment

and that the situation was resolved without risk

to the public or the games.

While social media has been circulating unauthorized

footage of the incident,

viewers are reminded that such material

is often misleading and taken out of context.

The TCA encourages fans to focus

on the thrilling competition ahead

rather than rumors and has emphasized

that Crimson Havoc remains safe, secure,

and on schedule with no impact to upcoming events.

Oh... It is destroyed!

I am afraid so.

The only way back to your time is broken.

They have taken what is vital.

We are all stuck here forever.

Unless we change our fate.

Cleopatra!

But how is this possible?

I devised an antidote to shield my mind

from their poison, this powder.

Joan, I owe you an apology.

You owe me nothing.

No, I must speak the truth.

I meant to kill you,

not as a slave to their will, but of my choosing.

You got in my way,

but your words,

your faith,

your selflessness, they affected me.

We seek the same thing, you and I:

A way home and freedom for our people.

I see that now.

Then we are allies at last.

I trusted you would find a way,

but is there a way to fix the machine?

Our hope is Aria.

She made this device.

Then we find her.

And the others?

This is the antidote.

If you encounter them, make them breathe it in.

And when their minds are freed,

you must persuade them to join us.

Joan of Arc vs. Oda Nobunaga.

What? What is this?

They've enslaved all but Cleopatra and I

under mind control.

She developed an antidote, but we need your help.

You trust her now?

I do.

She spared my life and revealed her truth.

I believe in her.

Then I stand with you.

I failed you once by not warning you of the poison.

I will not fail you again.

You're a man of honor, Oda.

We will find them.

I don't like this. This is taking too long.

We should go back to the control room.

Status report. Respond.

What's wrong?

Some sort of a transmission.

They're asking where you are.

Tell them you've slain me.

Joan is dead.

Very good. Bring her body to us.

You heard that, right?

That was definitely Joan.

She must have freed him from mind control somehow.

Joan of Arc and Oda Nobunaga

versus Boudica and Attila the Hun.

We...

Leave.

Welcome back, my friend.

Now we know how Joan escaped.

Aria, she's gone.

She played us the whole time.

I'll have to cycle through the cam...

Aria!

What the hell?

We were supposed to be in this together!

It was never about either of you!

What is it about?

Leon, get off of her!

Leon, stop! That's enough!

Aria...

This was supposed to change all of our lives.

I used to believe that.

But now I see they're not toys for billionaires.

They're human beings,

and we tore them from their own lives for our selfish spectacle.

How sanctimonious of you.

What if...

What if we put the time machine back?

You fix it, and we send everybody home.

Okay, let's do it.

And you try anything, and I'll stop.

Is that right?

You don't trust me. And I don't trust you.

So we'll both go to the machine room.

But I want this, Gordon.

I want an escort with drones.

Is that really necessary?

The drones are not even built for indoors.

I'm not walking into an ambush.

I'm fine with that.

Fine.

Go.

You made it.

I did.

Everyone is safe.

I will go find Aria.

Wait. Take this.

It's a fast-acting poison.

It quickly spreads through your bloodstream

the moment it's ingested.

Use it for our captors.

Okay.

Or for yourself, if you are captured,

and prefer a quick death.

Protect this machine.

And each other.

Our honor is all we have left.

They're not your friends. You understand that, right?

They're killers. They think nothing of you.

And you know nothing about them.

Identify Joan of Arc.

The drones are still programmed to kill Joan.

Run!

Eliminate Joan of Arc.

Eliminate Joan of Arc. Eliminate Joan of Arc.

Eliminate Joan of Arc.

Abort.

This is what happens to traitors!

Guide my hand, oh Lord!

Joan! You won't regenerate with the machine offline.

I will make peace with the Almighty.

And you are free to save my friends.

Go fix the machine.

Thank you so much.

And for what it's worth, I'm sorry.

Joan, go left at the end of the corridor.

You can hide out in the control room

until Aria fixes the machine.

Control room doors opening.

Control room doors closing.

Control room doors opening.

The drone!

How is it you live?

I...

I believed you lost to death.

I thought the same.

My last memory is of that thunderous explosion

that descended upon us.

And the poison.

You took the poison?

I can explain.

I used Cleopatra's uploaded knowledge to craft an antidote.

I thought that it was too late.

Both of you pulled through.

Honestly, those explosions almost killed you.

The machine.

Will you still be able to...

Send you back to your rightful time?

Yes.

Are you ready?

So soon?

Of course.

Come on.

Okay. Remember your order.

Khan, you're up first.

Will these memories remain with us?

Do you want them to?

No.

You'll not remember.

Our spirits will remember.

May fortune favor you, Aria.

I won the day, but forfeited myself.

Me, too.

Such is the fate of mankind.

And all kind.
