Original subtitles

Aah! Shh, shh!

You're safe.

Who are you?

My name is triton.

I've been looking for you.

You're one of us.

What are we?

We are inhumans.

What? We don't fully know why this is happening,

but you've been exposed to terrigen.

And now I'm a freak.

No.

What if I told you there's a place

where we're all like you, all inhumans?

The city of attilan,

and I can take you there.

I hear them.

They're here!

Run!

no, no, no!

aah!

Man: He's the target! He's the target!

Unh!

aah!

Mission accomplished.

do you remember what it was like before we were king and queen?

neither do I.

Louise: What the hell?

- Man: It's offline. - What happened?

Rover is not responding, sir.

Controls are offline.

what? Why?

where's triton?

Let's not wait.

this is the live feed that was going down to earth.

One more for the collection.

Karnak: What's that?

The little baby car?

Karnak: No.

What's that above it?

Gorgon: My hoof.

You don't see a problem with that?

Mnh-mnh. No, the little thing --

he was just banging against our walls.

You know, and as leader of the royal guards,

well, it was my responsibility to do something.

Yeah, something smart, ideally.

If the humans on earth see this --

nobody is gonna know that that's a hoof.

Louise: It looks like a hoof.

A what?

A hoof.

Well, that's what it looks like.

You're exhausting me, cousin.

I think what you mean to say is,

"thank you, gorgon, for saving us once again."

Are you really sure that's what you want to say to our board,

to our owner --

a hoof crashed the moon rover?

I didn't say it was a hoof. I said it looks like a hoof.

Karnak: What do you want to do about this?

medusa: We do nothing. We wait.

Maximus: We do nothing.

Brother, that's your strategy for everything.

Gorgon: Here we go again.

Sooner or later, the humans are going to find us up here,

and when they do, because they are humans,

their first course of action

will be to try to destroy us.

Hmm, and you know this, Maximus...

Because you're one of them?

I'm not one of them, gorgon.

I've never been to earth.

Regardless of what my genes might suggest,

I am an inhuman like the rest of you.

My point is that when the earth humans come for us,

we will be unprepared.

If they penetrate our walls...

nothing?

You have nothing to say?

We need to go to earth now.

We need to strike first.

We've been hiding here too long.

Let's go to our rightful home!

We are not going to earth anytime soon.

It would only lead to war.

I'm sorry, medusa.

Are you speaking for yourself or for our king?

I'm speaking for myself.

Excellent.

Now, please, can you tell us what the king thinks?

of course, my king.

I trust you.

George: We've seen this a hundred times,

and I still don't know what it means.

Well, what it means is that we just wasted $80 million.

We?

I believe you were at the controls.

Now, why don't you just try to figure out what this is?

kitang: I welcome you all to our terrigenesis ceremony.

Esteemed members of the royal family,

genetic council, friends and guests...

...blessed are we to witness the terrigenesis

of iridia and bronaja,

the sacred touchstone of our civilization

that elevates us above all others,

that allows the true nature of the individual to be revealed.

Terrigenesis simply provides our species with what it needs --

an evolutionary direction forward.

This holy ceremony... Flawless genetics.

...has been the touchstone of our people.... Maximus: Hardly.

It's nothing but random.

An archaic luck of the draw

that's been obsolete for centuries.

Sour grapes.

None of it matters in the long run.

Eventually, the universe will grow darker

until black holes dominate the cosmos,

and everyone, everything you've ever known...

Will be sucked into the vast nothingness.

No one will be left to observe this,

no one left to care.

This is why nobody invites you to do their birthday toasts.

Kitang: ...And our future.

where's your sister?

Princess.

lockjaw!

Yeah?

The grand hall.

kitang: Your highness, we are ready

to proceed with the ceremony.

pray their terrigenesis turns out better than our own.

you may step out and fully reveal yourselves.

crystal: A flyer!

She's a flyer. Oh, flyers are awesome.

I love flyers.

kitang: Bronaja...

You may reveal yourself.

I feel the same.

sometimes, one's terrigenesis

can take a while to fully manifest.

Hey, hey.

you.

I saw you.

You -- you were surrounded by them.

They...Threw you against the wall.

They...

They...

They what?

The snakes... They were all over you.

It's okay.

We'll talk soon.

Man: What did you get?

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

what did you get?

I don't know.

I walked out of the chamber and fell down.

I guess i had a seizure.

To the mines you go.

He has yet to undergo the genetic council's testing.

I'm sure they'll find something wonderful about him.

Man: They didn't with you.

You should be digging in the tunnels with the rest of us.

Our outspoken friend here has a point.

I had the worst possible terrigenesis,

being rendered nothing but a simple human.

But my brother is king,

and I am well-aware that others are not so fortunate.

Yes, bronaja may possibly end up in the tunnels,

but his life, like some of yours,

is only like this because of this place.

Our finite kingdom forces us into a strict caste system.

But if we were on earth...

Earth? Earth? Earth? Earth?

If we were on earth, we would have an entire,

glorious planet to live on -- thrive on!

Each one of us.

Imagine that.

2 1/2 days.

First day, I'd be captivated by your beauty.

Oh...

The fun we'd have.

Second day,

it would start to bother me that you're a servant.

And then I'd discover that you have dependency issues.

You chew with your mouth open.

And by the second afternoon, I'd want to kill you.

sad, but true.

what'd you --

you are your own worst enemy, my friend.

Karnak: You kidding? This is my gift.

Family...

I-I'm not sure...

It's triton.

triton is dead.

what are you saying?

no, that can't be true.

I wish it weren't.

Duodon came to see me, showed me this.

Duodon, please show them triton's last moments.

why did you keep his mission secret, brother?

Because you knew we wouldn't approve?

Did you know?

I did not.

However, the king need only consult me as he chooses.

Can we at least understand your reason

for sending triton to his death?!

medusa: We don't know that he's dead.

And the reason he is there

is because the recent spread of terrigen throughout earth...

The contamination of their water supply.

...has ignited the terrigenesis of people's genetics

who are at least part inhuman.

These are members of our own family.

Karnak: Descendants of those left behind

when we made the move to the moon.

And once they've become who they are meant to be,

they no longer resemble humans.

They are imprisoned,

and we will not leave them to suffer.

That is why triton was sent --

to bring them back.

Is it really in attilan's best interest

to increase our population?

Our resources can barely support us as we are.

We should be going there.

Not now.

Trust your king.

Maximus -- right or wrong, he's dangerous.

You think you're being tough with him, but you are not.

He has the ear of the people,

and he undermines your decisions.

You're blind to his intentions.

That's one of your greatest weaknesses.

Regardless, you have my loyalty.

Never doubt that.

gorgon: You should've sent me instead of triton.

Crystal, now.

medusa: This is a rescue mission,

not one of revenge.

okay.

Let's roll.

Take gorgon to exactly where triton was.

it looks horrible there.

Medusa: If anyone can do this, it's gorgon.

Karnak is right, you know.

We can't trust Maximus.

We can talk about it, if you'd like.

You need to be alone to think.

I love you, too.

Go.

Go.

hello. I'm medusa.

I know everyone's afraid of you,

but I'm not.

off by himself again?

He should never have sent triton.

I'll see you later, Maximus.

This is difficult, i know.

But I'm here for you.

Thank you.

But there's not much in this life that I can't handle.

You mean that bolt can't handle.

The rest of us have no choice.

We're just bounced around according to his will.

Careful.

I'm just telling the truth.

I would never treat you the way he does...

If you were my queen.

I am your queen.

are there times you wish you never entered that room...

And that your life never became so complicated?

No. Never.

You always were a good liar.

That's why we made such a good team back then.

We were never a team.

But we were. We were best friends.

The bad kids who would sneak away

and cause all kinds of trouble,

and we had fun. Do you remember that? Fun?

Is there a point to any of this?

do you ever think about how much better

your life would be with me?

Because I do.

Stop.

If I were to tell black bolt --

why? Why would you tell my brother?

You think you can't handle me on your own?

This is not --

I think you should at least try.

Never.

But I can think about it.

You're disgusting.

the snakes -- they were all over you.

"Snakes all over you."

Threw you against the wall.

auran: The head of the genetic council, kitang,

is here to see you.

Maximus: Auran.

Maximus.

Thank you for meeting with me, kitang.

And bringing auran was wise.

She suggested it.

I heard about that earth rover knocking on our door.

These are dangerous times.

Tell me, uh...

...how did iridia and bronaja's genetic testing go?

Iridia's flying skills are quite impressive.

As for bronaja...

There's something there.

But I don't yet know what it means.

Any more convulsions?

While I was testing him,

he told me he saw me resting in a beautiful river.

We have no rivers, so what could that mean?

Are these just hallucinations?

Only time will tell.

Is this why you brought me here?

I'll be blunt.

Does black bolt's plan

of staying hidden up here make sense?

Well, do you have a better one?

Yes.

We go to earth -- all of us.

Maximus...

The small scope of our city is holding us back in many ways.

Perhaps.

Black bolt is afraid that if we return to earth,

we will get into a war with the humans,

but fear is not the emotion

that should be dictating our actions.

We need to be bold.

Your brother thinks different.

And he is king, Maximus.

I need the backing of the genetic council.

No, there must be another way.

Speak to your brother,

oth-otherwise, i must inform the council.

I want you to.

And let them know you're speaking of treason.

I'm trying to save our people.

Maximus, you must reconsider.

my mind is made.

then I'm afraid you leave me no option.

Auran.

arrest him.

I'm truly sorry it came to this.

Maximus: Knowing that you actually agree with me

but hold out hope for a useless king...

I'm talking to a dead man...

...resting in a beautiful river.

we have no option. We have to move on.

do you understand what this means?

Fully...

My king.

still going with the lithium.

Man: We're here under the order of king Maximus!

King Maximus? Really?

This is hunter one.

Sir.

Yes?

Got eyes on target.

take him out.

Copy that.

and what has the king ordered you to do?

Man: Capture...Or kill.

your choice.

I love choices.

never approach downwind, dumbass.

well, that didn't work.

You should never have given me a choice.

Contact black bolt, medusa, and crystal.

Send alert.

Not now.

We're in the middle of a coup.

Maximus has betrayed us. Wait. What?

He has the royal guards with him.

Look, I'm the head of the royal guards.

Send lockjaw to get me. No.

I don't have time to spell it out for you.

You need to stay there!

Trust me!

Karnak: Crystal, I've been calling you.

What's going on?

Maximus is trying to take over attilan.

What? How? It's a coup.

Have lockjaw bring you to triton and gorgon.

You must escape now.

No, we all have to escape.

Crystal...

Lockjaw, take karnak to where gorgon is,

then come right back.

Crystal!

No!

No, not me!

Good boy.

Now let's find medusa.

Black bolt, something's happening.

Answer your comlink.

medusa, please...

Just stop.

I wish you had chosen me.

No.

stop.

I'm sorry.

But you've given me no choice.

This is your fault.

If you do this,

I will never forgive you.

now for black bolt.

hello, brother.

you should've known this day was coming.

But you didn't, did you?

You've so completely taken me for granted

that you can hardly imagine that I have thoughts of my own

that I can... Carry through.

It's your arrogance that has destroyed you.

Medusa is writhing on the floor.

medusa.

Maximus: Triton and gorgon are gone.

We have to get out of here.

We have to get to black bolt. We will.

And now it's all over -- your reign.

Take her to the others, then come right back.

It's done.

Are you going to speak?

Are you going to use your voice?

Kill your only brother?

Just like you murdered our parents?

why?

stop him!

Maximus: Get her before she torches us all!

Don't even try.

Friends, please listen.

One of the members of our genetic council

has been murdered.

Black bolt and the rest of the royal family have fled attilan.

I don't know what this means, but I will find out.

And trust me, justice will be served.
