- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

- Power and chaos!

- [Chosen] Power and chaos!

- [The Guardian] Zoot be praised!

- [Chosen] And to his enemies, confusion!

(tense music)

- Brothers and sisters,

this is a great day for the Chosen of Zoot.

The false mother has been expunged.

Zoot has opened my eyes and exposed her to me

as an imposter and a fountain of impurity.

He has freed us from her corruption and lies.

She has been expelled and is no longer with us.

Zoot be praised!

- [Chosen] Zoot be praised!

Zoot be praised!

Zoot be praised!

- He has given us the opportunity to make a fresh start

with a new Supreme Mother who is truly worthy of the honor.

In his wisdom, Zoot has chosen Tai-San.

(Chosen cheering and applauding)

- Brothers and sisters,

I give you the new Supreme Mother!

(Chosen cheering and applauding)

(Chosen screaming)

Help!

Help me!

- No, Lex!

(tense music)

(seagull squawking)

- Well, he didn't come back last night.

- You didn't really expect him to, did you?

- I'd hoped, once he had had time to cool down--

- Bray, this is Lex we're talking about, remember?

- [Bray] Yeah.

- He's only got room in his head for one idea at a time.

- Who put that there?

- Bray, today's the big day.

Tai-San's coronation, Lex wouldn't miss that for anything.

- You trying to tell me

you didn't wind him up about Tai-San?

- Lex doesn't need winding up!

- No?

He's gonna do a hit on one of them, right?

- Wouldn't surprise me, the mood he was in.

- Well, which one, the Guardian or Tai-San?

- Either way, it'd be a blow against the Chosen.

- Tai-San's one of us, she's Lex's wife!

- Well, that's his problem, not mine.

- If you stopped to think

about what the Chosen will do to us

if we wasted the Guardian, 'cause I have, Ebony!

- They'd fall apart, Bray.

- They might take it out on the Mall Rats.

- An amnesty?

- Yes.

- What's that when it's at home?

- It's like a pardon.

- What, so we're all gonna be set free?

- Not all, no, but if you just let me finish.

- I knew there'd be a catch.

- As a special gesture to celebrate the coronation

of the Supreme Mother, the Guardian will allow

one of you to go free.

- Just one?

- Which one?

- [Luke] That's for you to decide.

- What?

You expect us to choose?

- [Ellie] How about Jack?

- Or Ryan, maybe?

- No, no, it has to be one of you here, just one.

- No, that's not fair.

How are we meant to pick one of us?

- If you spurn the Guardian's generous offer,

you will all be punished, severely.

- No problem, I'll go.

- Hey, what about us?

- You can't just leave us.

- Forget it, Ned, you're not even a Mall Rat.

- The guard will release whoever you choose.

You have one hour to decide.

(pensive music)

- Luke!

- Yes?

- Could I have a word?

- If it's about the amnesty,

I can't change the Guardian's orders.

- No, it's not about that, it's about Salene.

- Oh, Salene.

- What?

Is she okay?

- She's much better.

- There's something else.

You're hiding something, I know.

- She's fine.

- But?

There's a but there.

It's the baby, isn't it?

- I promised her I wouldn't say anything.

- She's lost it.

- Yes.

- No!

(groaning)

Poor kid, how is she taking it?

- She's very upset, of course,

but looking after Brady's softened the blow.

- I've gotta go see her.

- Hey, what are you doing?

- What do you want?

- She coming on to you?

Wants you to choose her to go free?

- No!

Would you keep your snout out of my business?

- You got no chance, no chance.

- [Luke] That's enough.

- You can forget it, Alice.

It's your little sister he's got the hots for, right, Luke?

You fancy her, don't you?

- I said that's enough!

- I've seen her giving you the eye.

You want to watch out for that one, Luke-y baby.

- We've got to stop him before it's too late.

- We?

Hey, leave me out of this.

- Fine.

That's the way you want it, I'll find him on my own.

(pensive music)

(knocking on door)

- Yes?

- Hi, it's your friendly tai chi master here

to help you prepare yourself.

- Pride!

Come in, come in.

You may leave us.

- Are you all right?

- Of course.

How are you?

- Fine, the plan's right on course.

- That's good.

Can I ask you something?

- Sure.

- Do you believe in the power of dreams?

- Like when you're asleep, you mean?

- Yeah, do you think they're just sorting through things

on our mind, or do you think they could be prophecies?

- I wouldn't know.

A bit of both, I guess.

Why?

- No reason.

Let's do these exercises.

- [Truck Speaker] The true Supreme Mother, Tai-San,

will be ordained in a ceremony outside the mall.

All slaves are ordered to celebrate the occasion.

The true Supreme Mother, Tai-San,

will be ordained in a ceremony outside the mall.

All slaves are ordered to celebrate the occasion.

The true Supreme Mother, Tai-San,

will be ordained in a ceremony outside the mall.

All slaves are ordered.

- That Ned, I'm gonna strangle him one of these days.

- Now what's he done?

- You don't want to know.

He's being a filthy loud-mouthed slob.

- So what's new?

- Nothing.

What are you guys doing?

- Oh, we were just talking about the pardon.

- The amnesty, it's impossible.

How can we pick one of us?

- It's part of the Guardian's plan.

He wants us to fall out with each other.

- So we don't give him the satisfaction, right?

- Right, it's too good a opportunity.

One of us can go and join the rebels.

- Don't look at me.

I got a good thing going with the Guardian.

Besides, he'd never let me go, he needs me.

- Well, I'm not a street fighter.

It's gotta be you, sis.

- What, and leave you here with that creature on the loose?

I don't think so.

- Hey, I'm not a kid anymore.

I can look after myself, you know.

- With Ned?

Forget it, I'm not leaving you and that's that.

- Well, now you're being selfish.

- Sacrificing my freedom for you is selfish?

- It's no good, we're never gonna agree.

- If we go on like this, the Guardian will have won.

- Unless,

unless we could still make it so he's doing us a favor.

(pensive music)

- Hi, Ned, how are you doing?

- What do you want?

- We've got some news.

- Good news.

- [Ellie] About this amnesty business.

- Yeah?

- [Alice] We took a vote.

- And you won.

- What?

- Struck it lucky.

- We chose you, you're the one to go free.

- [KC] Good, eh?

- Funny.

- No, it's not a joke, really.

- What's the catch?

- No catch, we voted.

- Congratulations.

- Well, I ain't going.

- What, why?

It's your chance to get out of here.

- You guys are up to something.

I don't know what it is, but I don't like it.

- No, no, we're not, honest.

- We just thought you'd be the best one.

- Forget it.

First I'm the last person to go, now I'm the best?

You guys are definitely up to something.

Besides, I couldn't leave my little Tally and Andy, could I?

(playful music)

(tense music)

- Well, it was a great idea while it lasted.

- Yeah, sorry, guys.

- Hey, it wasn't your fault, KC.

- Might have known.

Trust that idiot to be a pain right to the very end.

- And now we're almost out of time.

We'll have to draw straws or something, it's the only way.

- No, no, it ain't.

- You've got a better idea then?

- Yeah, I just thought of something wicked.

- Gotcha!

- What the?

- What do you think you're doing?

- Watching your back.

- Oh, yeah, why?

- Look, the place is crawling with guards.

- I can take care of myself.

- Yeah, well, maybe I felt guilty.

You're right, I did wind Lex up, and I'm sorry.

Look, I want to help, okay?

You're the boss, I'll do whatever you say.

- Yeah, well, guess I feel happier with you in front,

rather than behind me.

(pensive music)

- Back again, can't keep away, huh?

- Must be your aftershave.

- You better watch your step.

- Why, what are you gonna do about it?

- We've been thinking some more about this amnesty.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, and we've decided

that there's only one fair way to settle it.

- We should draw lots or cut cards, or something.

- Or we use the dice.

- What do you mean?

- You know how to shoot craps, don't you?

- Listen, you little squirt, I was shooting craps

when you were in your high chair throwing food.

What do we use for dice?

- There you go.

Go on, take a good look.

(dice clattering)

- So, you on?

- They look okay.

Yeah, let's roll.

- First to shoot a seven or 11 wins, right?

(dice clattering)

(upbeat pensive music)

(dice clattering)

- Six, no good.

- Bad luck, who's next?

- That's all of us, we've all been.

- So we go around again.

Here, give me the dice.

- Has anybody got the time?

How are we doing for time?

- [Andy] Yeah, we got plenty of time.

- [Ellie] So, let's go.

- This time.

Watch the master at work.

Go, babies, go.

(dice clattering)

Seven, yeah, Ned, seven!

I'm outta here!

- You can't go!

- Who said?

I won, didn't I?

Hey, guards, let me outta here.

I am the man!

- What about us?

- Don't worry, I'll come back and get you.

- I had this dream about the ceremony.

- Yes?

- There was someone out there.

- And you're afraid for your life.

- Not my life, yours.

He shot you with an arrow, straight through the heart.

- Ah, and you believe this dream was important?

- It might be.

- It is possible, Guardian, don't you think so?

A warning.

- My oracle has said nothing.

- Maybe this is Zoot speaking through me.

- Did he manifest himself to you?

Did you see him?

- No.

- Then how can you say he's speaking through you?

- Please, call off the ceremony.

- We could hold it in private, not out in the open.

Think about what it would mean to the movement

if we were to lose you.

- I am merely Zoot's Guardian on Earth, here to do his will,

and his will is that the ceremony shall proceed as planned.

Don't worry.

Zoot will protect me.

(pensive music)

(loud thudding) (grunting)

- Brady, you're so cute.

- You're great with her, Salene.

- I don't feel like I'm doing too well.

- Of course you are.

Tai-San was right to hire you for the job.

- Are you sure you don't mind?

I mean, you and Brady got pretty close.

- No worries, I've got plenty to occupy

myself with these days.

- Hi, Salene.

Can I...

Well, hello there, princess.

You look gorgeous.

You're all ready for the big show, aren't you?

Oh, they're gonna love you.

- So, what are you doing around these parts, Pride?

- He's been practicing tai chi with the Supreme Mother.

- Just keeping her body, mind, and spirit

in trim for the ceremony.

- Wow!

Tai-San never said anything about it to me.

- I really appreciate that last visit, Pride.

It really helped me a lot, thank you.

- Visit?

You mean you guys have been hanging out?

What else don't I know?

- Sometimes knowledge waits for the bearer

to be ready to own it.

It pays to have patience, May.

(pensive music)

(dog whining)

- KC!

- We want a word with you.

- What about me?

- What's your game?

- A game, me?

Don't know what you're talking about.

- It's all your fault Ned's gone, and you set him up!

- I'd never do a thing like that!

- What are we gonna do without a big brother, huh?

- You don't need him.

- We were a team!

You split us up.

- But I told you, I'd never--

- We want to look at those dice you were using.

- The dice, sure, there's nothing wrong with 'em.

Here, take a look.

(dice clattering)

See, what'd I tell you?

- These look fine, but what about the others?

- Others, which others?

- These.

- What?

You thieving little!

(dice clattering)

- Seven.

- Wow, what did you know about that?

- Lucky, or what?

(dice clattering)

- Seven again, wow!

- Well, I gave him a little hand to get out, didn't I?

- You conned him.

- Ned doesn't like being conned.

- He'd get real, real mad if he found out.

- If.

(soft pensive music)

- Salene.

- Alice, what are you doing here?

- How are you feeling now?

- A little better, thank you.

- I know about the baby.

- Luke promised--

- I made him tell me.

I haven't told anybody else.

- It doesn't matter.

Everybody's gonna find out sooner or later anyway.

- Salene, I'm so sorry.

I am so sorry for what's happened.

- Alice, it wasn't your fault.

- Yes, it is, it's all my fault.

I shouldn't have said all those horrible things,

shooting my mouth off like that,

making you fall down the stairs!

- Please, Alice, you mustn't blame yourself.

You mustn't torture yourself like this.

- But I made you lose the baby.

You could have died, even.

- Maybe the baby wasn't meant to be.

- What do you mean?

- Maybe I don't deserve to have a child of my own.

- Oh, don't talk like that.

- I didn't really love Ryan, you know.

I treated him really badly.

- Yeah.

- He wanted a baby, I didn't.

It's Zoot's will.

- What?

- Losing my baby was all part of his great plan.

You were merely his tool.

(pensive music)

- Well, no sign of him anywhere.

- Well, he's gotta be here some place.

- But we're running out of time.

- Well, maybe we should split up.

- I don't know about that.

- Come on, we'd cover twice the ground.

- I suppose, but if you find him--

- Don't worry, I hear you, boss.

(pensive music)

- [Lex] Tai-San, you forget how well I know you.

You would do anything to get what you want.

- Don't you think I hate this as much as you do?

I wish none of this was happening!

All I want is to be with you.

- Well, what's stopping you?

- I've got a job to do here, so please, just trust me.

- It's that smooth-talking loony I don't trust.

(knocking on door)

- Tai-San, Supreme Mother, it's time to go.

- Thank you.

(pensive music)

- You should have seen her, poor kid.

She's out of her tree.

- Well, so would you be if you just lost your baby.

- No, but it's more than that.

She used to say she was just playing along with the Chosen,

but now she's gone all the way.

- You think she really believes all that stuff?

- Yeah, and then some.

It's like she's swapped Bray for Zoot.

- [KC] Alice, Ellie!

- KC, what?

- Come, come quick, come see!

(pensive music)

He's back.

- Aw, no!

What is he doing here?

- He's been arrested, drunk and disorderly,

and fighting the guards.

- Hi, everybody, I'm home!

(vomit splattering)

- (groans) Any more bright ideas, KC?

- Power and chaos!

- [Chosen] Power and chaos!

- Zoot be praised!

- [Chosen] And to his enemies, confusion!

- Brothers and sisters,

this is a great day for the Chosen of Zoot.

The false mother has been expunged.

- No, no!

- Be strong.

- Zoot has opened my eyes and exposed her to me

as an imposter and a fountain of impurity.

He has freed us from her corruption and lies.

She has been expelled and is no longer with us.

Zoot be praised!

- [Chosen] Zoot be praised!

Zoot be praised!

Zoot be praised!

- Lex, no, no!

- You hold it right there!

- We gotta stop him.

- What, you want to get to Lex?

You gotta get through me first!

- You lied to me, you never intended on stopping him.

- Oh, Bray, you're too soft.

Look, this is my play.

(pensive music)

(Ebony groaning)

- Out of my way!

- [Chosen] Zoot be praised, Zoot be praised!

- Be brave. - He has given us

the opportunity to make a fresh start

with a new Supreme Mother,

who is truly worthy of the honor.

In his wisdom, Zoot has chosen Tai-San.

(Chosen cheering and applauding)

Brothers and sisters, I give you the new Supreme Mother.

(Chosen cheering and applauding)

- Lex.

No!
