- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

- Sounds like Bray and Pride.

- Let's hope they got breakfast.

What the...

- Where am I?

Bray, what is this place?

- It's all right, you'll be safe here.

- Come with me.

- What?

- I'll fix a drink to calm you.

- [Bray] It's okay, it's okay.

- Could somebody perhaps tell me what's going on?

- They were going to execute her.

We managed to rescue her.

- What about the rest of them, huh?

The Mall Rats?

- What's going on here?

Has Trudy escaped?

- It looks like it.

- Yes!

- We did it.

- I did it.

Well, I started it.

- Oh, God, you must be crazy!

- What's wrong, May?

Didn't you want Trudy to escape?

- Of course I did.

But what's gonna happen to you guys now?

- I wasn't involved.

- Salene!

- Well, I wasn't.

I didn't know anything about it.

- Nor me.

- No, it was the Mall Rats.

- Yeah.

Well, if I were you, I'd just forget

you know anything about that, girlfriend.

You get my drift?

- Well, of course.

Brady!

- Look after her.

- Come on, Brady.

Come to Auntie May.

- Trudy is safe.

- What about us?

- Don't worry, I'll cover for you.

Guards!

The Supreme Mother has escaped!

Search the building!

- You went to the mall and you're telling me

that all you could rescue was that, that fruitcake?

What about the others, what about Tai-San?

- They weren't gonna execute Tai-San.

It's complicated, I'll explain later.

- Can you believe that?

Can you believe that?

He risks everything to rescue that?

That?

- Lex, don't blow a circuit.

We've got the Supreme Mother, dummy.

- It was my fault.

Someone shouted "Zoot is here!" and it was chaos.

The guards were running everywhere.

I should have controlled them.

- Who shouted?

Who saw Zoot?

- No one.

It was a trick to create a diversion.

I realized, and ran to the sewers.

Bray was there, helping her to escape.

- Bray!

I might have known he was behind it.

- I did manage to rescue the divine child, Brady.

- Is she safe?

- Yes.

- Good.

But the Supreme Mother is gone, escaped her punish--

Her, her reward.

And now someone else must be rewarded in her place.

- [Ebony] Well done, guys.

- Thanks.

- Whose was the plan?

- Luke's, actually.

The Guardian's lieutenant.

- What?

- So the wheels have started to come off, huh?

- Looks that way.

- And now we've got the perfect weapon

to give them an extra push.

- Excuse me?

- We've got the Supreme Mother.

- Supreme Nutter.

- So we let the people know.

We parade her in the streets, like the Romans used to.

It makes the enemy look weak, and encourages rebellion.

- I say we use her as a hostage,

and trade her for the Mall Rats.

- Lex, this is too good a chance to miss.

I mean, think of the propaganda.

- Just hang on a minute, okay?

This is Trudy we're talking about here.

- So?

- So?

You both saw her.

She's traumatized, and in no fit state

to be used for anything.

- Who cares?

Look what she's done to other people.

- Trudy needs help.

- [Ebony] Oh, get real, Bray.

- I say we use her any damn way we please, right?

- Bray?

- Trudy.

- Where is Brady?

Where's my baby?

- Trudy.

- You left her.

You left her behind.

- Trudy, you saw--

- You took me away from my baby.

You kidnapped me.

Take me back, you had no right.

Do you not know who I am?

I am the Supreme Mother.

I am the Supreme...

- [Bray] You see what I mean?

- Yeah, well, um, we know she's a fruitcake.

And it's two to one, Bray, you're outvoted.

- Who was shouting?

- Everybody, it seemed like.

There were people shouting and running around.

- Someone shouted "Zoot is here", who?

- I, I don't know.

It could've been anyone.

- How is the divine child?

- Oh, she's fine, very well.

- Luke tells me you would like to

look after her permanently.

- Oh, yes.

- It is a very important position.

Not to be entrusted to just anyone.

- Well, I've been looking after her for a while now,

and for a Supreme Mother, Trudy wasn't one bit maternal.

And Brady really loves me.

- And how do you feel about her?

- Oh, she means the world to me.

- So you would like to look after her very badly?

- Yes, yes, please.

- Good.

So which of your friends called "Zoot is here"?

- Well, if we stick to our story, they can't prove a thing.

- Patsy won't betray us, I know.

- I put the fear of God into May.

- What about the fear of Zoot?

- What about Salene?

- That's a good question, KC.

(Brady crying)

- Oh, just shut it, will you, shut it!

Oh, come here, sweetheart, don't cry.

May's here.

- Is there a problem?

- No, no.

Just getting another tooth.

- Well, isn't there anything you can do for her?

- Yeah, I've got some stuff.

Leave it to me.

Oh, and thanks.

For putting in the good word about looking after Brady.

- No problem.

- Uh, and if there's anything, anything at all

I could do for you?

- I think Brady needs you more than I do.

- Ugh, you stink.

- There you are.

I've been looking all over for you.

- Oh yeah, why?

- 'cause I wanted to spend some time with you, that's all.

That's okay, isn't it?

- Sure, whatever, Salene.

- Ryan.

- Yeah?

- This thing.

- What thing?

- With Trudy.

- What about it?

- You weren't involved, were you?

I mean, you didn't help her escape or anything.

- No, no, why?

- 'cause I don't want anything to happen to you,

and they're bound to punish somebody.

- Well, I wasn't involved, so you don't have to worry.

- Good.

- You must be happy for her though, right?

- Yeah, yeah, of course I am.

- Well, can you try and look it?

The others might get suspicious.

- Well, what do we have here?

Our little Chosen turncoat.

- Get lost, KC.

- No, it's you that's lost.

Lost your precious Supreme Mother.

Not so great now, are they, the Chosen?

You're gonna be sorry you joined that bunch of losers.

But don't worry, I'll speak up for you

when we're back on top.

- Oh, thank you, o powerful one.

Now will you please move?

Your ego is blocking my path.

- You're the first Chosen I've met with a sense of humor.

- I'm not joking, move it, KC.

- Why, so you can go and pray to the dead guy?

- No, I'm gonna find somewhere to be sick.

- Okay, okay.

You can stop playing games, Pats.

I know you miss me.

Hey, it's no big deal, I miss you too.

Like a pain in the--

What, what's going on?

Get off me!

- The Guardian wants to see you.

- What, why?

What's wrong?

I haven't done anything!

- [Bray] How are you feeling?

- [Trudy] Okay.

- Good.

- I'm sorry.

- No, um, hey.

- No, no, I shouldn't have gotten angry with you.

You saved me.

Thank you.

I was just so worried about Brady.

- They won't harm her, she'll be okay

until we sort this mess out.

- I don't know who to trust any more.

- You can trust me, you know that.

- I don't deserve it.

I have done some very bad things.

- Hey.

- I have.

I know.

- Trudy, this isn't the time.

- But when I'm restored as Supreme Mother,

I'll reward you, I promise.

You can have anything you want,

anything at all, just name it.

- Trudy, listen to me.

I want to help you, and I can help you.

But you must do as I say.

It's for your own good, okay?

Trust me.

- I do trust you, Bray.

Hold me.

- Wonder how long it's gonna take

for KC to rat on us.

- Maybe that's not why the Guardian wanted to see him.

- Oh, give me a break.

Why else would the Guardian want to see KC?

To discuss flower arranging?

- You're right.

All the Guardian has to do is make him an offer,

and you guys are in deep.

- We're history.

- I can make it easy for you.

There are some terrible, extremely painful ways

to be sent to meet the mighty Zoot.

I can make it quick and painless for you.

All you have to do is confess.

Who called Zoot's name?

I will count to three.

One.

Two.

- All right!

All right, it was me.

I called his name out.

- Good.

And who else was part of the plot?

- It wasn't a plot.

No, wait, honest!

It wasn't a trick, I really did see Zoot.

- We can use Patsy.

She can give them the message we're willing to trade,

and we can get Tai-San and the rest out.

But then, then we don't give them Trudy back.

- That's it?

That's your master plan?

- Why not?

- Look, why don't you just leave the thinking to me, Lex?

It's not what you do best.

- You are not the leader.

- Look, the Chosen don't know we've got her, right?

So we've got to give them proof.

We parade her.

Once half the city find out, the Chosen will too.

- So what are we waiting for, then?

Let's go and get her.

- What about Bray?

- We can handle him.

- I really did see him, honest.

I'd heard he was coming back, but there he was,

standing right in front of me.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

He was large as life, larger.

- Then why didn't you own up straight away?

Why did you lie?

- Because I was scared.

I thought someone would laugh at me,

or accuse me of being in a plot, like you thought.

- What did you actually see?

- Zoot.

- How?

What did he look like?

- Like the mighty Zoot.

You know, the hat, the goggles, and that cool outfit.

It was him, all right.

I wouldn't forget those eyes.

- What did he say?

- Nothing, but it looked like he was trying to.

- Trying?

The mighty Zoot does not try, he does.

- Yeah, maybe I couldn't hear him.

There was a lot of noise going on.

- So you saw Zoot.

Great Zoot made himself known to a worm like you.

- Yes, I swear it.

- Guards!

Take him away.

- No, wait!

I really did see him, honestly, I really did!

- We're wasting time, Bray.

- It's a major coup, we have to make use of it.

- Look, I said no.

- You're outvoted.

We're taking Trudy, and we're gonna parade her.

- I thought that was Ebony's idea.

- So why did you rescue her, Bray,

if not to use her to beat the Chosen?

- I rescued her because she's a human being

and she used to be our friend.

- Used to be.

- Look, you're right.

Trudy is a major weapon, and we will use her.

- At last!

- When?

- All in good time.

When she's well again.

- We're taking her now.

- She's sleeping, Lex.

- Get out of my way.

- If you want to see her, you gotta go through me first.

- There is two of us.

- Count me out.

- What?

- Patience is a virtue, Lex.

I'm happy to bide my time.

- I didn't do anything, honest!

Look, I've got contacts.

I can get you anything you want.

Just turn your back for two minutes.

One minute?

Guys?

What are you gonna do to me?

- The Guardian has many ways of sending people to Zoot.

- Zoot?

- Anyone who is close to the great one

is worthy to join him.

You are lucky.

- Lucky?

(haunting music)

- You seem troubled, my friend.

One of our scouts has brought word from Amber.

- You know where she is?

- She says she is safe.

Her work goes well.

- I want you to take Trudy to her.

- Me?

To Amber?

- Trudy's not safe here.

- From the Chosen?

- Or from Lex and Ebony.

- They have a long way to go before

they can be at peace within themselves.

- They want to use her, and they're right.

But we can't use her til she's well.

- Can't?

- Shouldn't.

You want to do it?

- Why not you?

Amber is in the--

- I don't want to know where Amber is, okay?

I don't know if I could trust myself to come back.

And besides, Lex and Ebony would be at each other's throats

the moment I walk out the door.

Someone needs to stay behind and lead.

- I could do that.

- Well, I'm a Mall Rat.

We started this, it's my responsibility.

- And you trust me to come back?

- We need you.

- That wasn't the question.

- Yeah.

Yeah, I trust you.

- I'm not even sure I trust myself, my friend.

- Give my love to Amber.

- What do you think?

- Well, KC's not known for his--

- Why would Zoot choose such a lowlife

to reveal himself to?

Why not me?

I'm his voice on Earth, the Guardian of the cause.

There must be a reason.

I can't fathom it.

- So you believe him?

- I've known for some time that the great one

would return soon, when I had completed his work.

But what was he trying to say?

And why to that worm?

- Maybe it was the mall that was important, not KC.

- Go on?

- Maybe KC just happened to be there.

It was to be a momentous occasion, after all,

reuniting Zoot with the Supreme Mother.

- But he was trying to say something.

What?

- Maybe he was concerned.

Perhaps he didn't want it to happen.

Maybe he wanted the Supreme Mother to live.

- Of course, that's it!

He knew of the escape, and was trying to warn us.

And you didn't hear him.

Now go.

Leave me.

I must talk with Zoot.

- So what do you think, Alice?

Did KC nark on us?

Are we for it?

Is the Guardian gonna put us in the cage and--

- I don't know, but if you don't keep still,

you'll end up with a messy hairdo.

- Well, I reckon that if KC had spilled the beans,

they would have come for us by now.

Maybe I spoke too soon.

- You two, get back to your work.

- Is that it?

- What do you mean, is that it?

The orders are for the slaves to clean up the mall.

Now move it.

- Luke!

- Salene.

What is it?

You look upset.

- I was wondering if you had a moment to talk.

- Of course, Salene.

You don't have to make an appointment to see me.

How can I help?

- It's about Trudy.

- Ah, yes.

The Supreme Mother.

Very unfortunate.

- What's gonna happen now?

- We'll find the culprits and punish them.

- No, I mean, what's gonna happen to the Chosen?

- What do you mean?

- I mean, will they, will they carry on,

without her?

- Of course.

We have Brady, we have the Guardian, and we have Zoot.

We're as strong as ever.

You are concerned, I can see.

- It's just that, um, Trudy promised to help,

with the baby, you know.

And now she's gone.

- Salene, you mustn't worry.

You'll get all the help you need, I promise.

We'll take care of you.

How's Ryan?

- It's difficult.

He doesn't really trust me.

Not that he was involved or anything, with the Trudy thing.

- I'm sure he wasn't.

- Nothing's gonna happen to him, is it?

- Nothing, I give you my word.

- It's just that...

If, if he...

I'd have no one.

I feel so--

- Zoot will provide.

He'll protect you.

Take your strength from him.

- Thank you.

I don't know what I'd do without your help.

- I'll always be there for you, Salene.

You can depend on that.

- [Lex] Gotcha!

(ominous music)

- Guard!

Bring that lowlife KC to me.

- Where is she?

I'll find her if I have to tear this place down

with my bare hands.

- Ha!

Don't bother, I sent her to Amber.

- What?

- Are you crazy?

- You were outvoted.

You had no right.

- Have you lost it, Bray?

You lost a golden opportunity.

- I'm going after her, she can't have gone far.

- She's with Pride.

Think you can track him?

- You sent Pride to Amber?

Oh, you must be a fool.

- Right.

That's the last you'll see of him.

- I have consulted Zoot.

- Yeah?

- He confirms your story.

You did see him.

You are privileged.

Indeed, you are very lucky.

- Are, are you gonna get rid of me?

- Oh no.

You are too valuable.

You are to be my oracle.

- Come again?

- You will be my eyes and ears.

If Zoot chooses you again,

you must come and tell me immediately.

You have been chosen.
