- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

- Ebony.

- Sorry to bust in on your cozy little love nest.

- What is it?

- I thought you might want to know.

Lex took off for the mall.

- When was this?

- Maybe half an hour ago.

- You should have woken us before.

- How was I to know you were asleep?

- What does he want at the mall?

- You'd better ask May.

She put him up to it.

She's been stirring about Tai-San and the Guardian.

You guys and your girlfriends, huh?

- Salene, are you okay?

- Luke, what about you?

Have you been hiding all this time?

- I'm all right.

But I'm worried about what the Guardian might do next.

If you want,

I could help you escape before things get too dangerous.

- No.

- But you could go and gather support.

- There's no way out.

Besides, we have Zoot to guide us.

That's what you always told me.

Oh, don't tell me you've lost faith, Luke.

- I'm not about to die in this mall.

Not for--

- Zoot?

- No, not for Zoot or anyone else.

- Then hold me.

Just once.

I feel so safe when I'm with you.

Ryan never really understood me.

Not like you do.

Oh, Luke--

- Stop it!

- What did I say?

- I'm sorry, Salene.

The truth is

I'm in love with Ellie.

I always have been.

- No.

No, that can't be.

It's me you want.

That's why you've been so kind and gentle.

Luke, tell me you love me.

- I felt sorry for you, Salene.

That's all.

You lost Ryan and the baby,

and I was trying to help you.

- I see.

I see.

Well, I'd better be getting back.

- Salene.

- It doesn't matter now.

It's over.

Look, you don't have to apologize.

I'm the one who should be sorry.

I made a fool of myself.

(sighs)

- Well?

What are you waiting for?

I'll take you all on!

Why don't you fight?

I'll tell you why.

'Cause you're all finished!

- Well, I guess some things never change after all.

- What do you mean?

- Lex and Tai-San getting it together?

I thought he must have really matured since I was away.

- Become an upright citizen, you mean?

A pillar of the community?

- Yeah, you're right.

I need my head examined.

- Actually, Lex has done us a favor this time.

We worked so hard on tactics, you know?

We tried to prepare for anything

that the Guardian's gonna throw at us.

- Well, yeah, sure, after what happened

to you guys at the beach.

- But you can't be too cautious.

Then when it comes time to strike, you miss it.

- What, you mean this is the moment?

- Why do you think the Guardian fears us so much?

'Cause he knows we can't be broken.

Every time he thinks we're dead, we get back up again.

We've always fought back, and we always will.

- Yeah, but you've left something out.

He fears the Mall Rats because

they have a great hero for a leader.

As well as a couple of screaming head cases

like Lex and Ebony.

- You know, Amber,

it's gonna be rough.

- Yeah, but we've got

the tribal leaders now and the Eco tribe.

- What I meant was

I want you to rest.

- Oh, no.

- Just hear me out.

- No! Bray, if this is gonna be the big one,

then I have to be there.

- What about our baby?

See, we planned this for a long time,

but that was before I knew about the kid.

It's gonna be too risky.

I'm asking you to stay behind this time.

Okay?

For me.

- Ned, Ned!

- KC, have you seen Alice?

She wasn't in her bed last night.

- No.

Ned's missing as well.

They must have already been taken.

- Taken where?

- I want the whole place sealed off.

No one comes in or goes out.

You Mall Rats chose your name well.

Like rats, when the sun rises, you're nowhere to be found.

Where's your sister?

And the other one, the slave trader.

- You mean you don't know?

- Tell him, please.

- Why don't you ask Zoot?

He's all-seeing, isn't he?

- Luckily for you, it no longer matters.

They're here somewhere.

They will not escape.

- Escape what?

Would somebody please tell me what's going on here?

- We need to join up with other the tribe leaders.

- Are they ready?

- I made contact with them last night.

I think we can count on most of them.

- Good, we need to bring as many as we can.

We'll rendezvous outside the mall.

- I don't get it.

Lex gets a bee in his bonnet,

so we have to go to war right now.

- What do you mean we?

- Hey, this is not about Lex.

We know the Chosen and we can demoralize.

We need to hit them now before they have time to reform.

Now, are we together on this?

Is there a problem?

- Well, I'm in for hitting the Chosen.

But you can't seriously want to take her with us.

- Ebony, May has proven her loyalty to us.

- Well, I still don't trust her.

She was the first to join the Chosen.

And she got close to the Guardian.

- Sure, to keep an eye on him.

Look, if Trudy can be a Mall Rat again, then so can I.

- She has a point.

Maybe I should stay behind too.

- No.

No, not a chance.

We need as many people as we can get.

Now, you two can sort out your differences

after this is over.

- Don't start, Bray.

I've made up my mind.

- Amber.

- No.

I am the leader of the Eco tribe,

and I have a role to play here, just as you do.

And besides, you said it yourself, we can be too cautious.

Now, let's go.

- Look, I'm tired and I'm hungry.

And let's face it, this wall's not going anywhere.

- Maybe not, but this block is.

I can feel it moving.

- Really?

- Unless I imagined it.

- Let me see.

- Gently.

You don't want to make too much noise.

(grunts)

- Well?

Did we make it?

What can you see?

- Nothing much.

But I can smell something.

Fresh air.

(cheering)

- Here, in the very place where Zoot became a god,

shall his divine purpose be fulfilled.

- His divine purpose?

What does that mean?

- I don't think I wanna know.

- Tai-San, what is he gonna do?

- Someone might hear us, Ned.

We've gotta get back.

- Not yet, I'm almost free.

- We can go later.

We've gotta cover up the hole and go tell the others.

- What's the matter, Alice?

Thought you'd be glad to see me go.

- What do you mean?

- Does this mean you've changed your mind about me?

Think maybe I'm not such a bad guy after all?

- It means I want to get everybody out.

If you go alone, there's a chance you'll be missed.

- But not by you?

Fair enough.

Just let me try it out for size.

- Ned, the hole's too small.

(Ned grunts)

- Zoot teaches us that all life is chaos.

And that to promote chaos, to create fear,

and to celebrate suffering is to become chosen,

to live as one with the divine.

But all of this is a mere prelude

to the greater glory that awaits us all in the next life.

- So you wanna go to the next life, right?

And we have to go too?

- Not right away.

There will be time for you to make your peace with Zoot.

- Can't you do something?

Talk to him!

- I can't!

I've tried.

I can't get through to him.

- You're sick!

What does this prove?

Does this make you feel good about yourself?

- For thousands of years to come,

this mall will be a holy place.

And you--

- Wait a minute, we didn't sign up for this.

You go be a martyr if you want, but leave us out of it!

- I would.

But Zoot has other plans.

- Zoot is dead!

He never was a god anyway.

Just another screwed-up kid.

And I'll tell you something else.

He never came back.

I never saw him, not once.

I made it all up to save my own neck.

- But I know you saw him, KC.

- How do you know?

- He's spoken to me of your meetings.

If only you knew, all of you,

how futile it is to deny your destiny.

Zoot is calling to you.

Join him with a glad heart,

and you will become immortal.

(timer beeping)

- [Bray] Glad we caught up with you in time.

Now remember, Lex, no heroics.

- [Lex] I hear ya.

- As soon as we get there,

you spread out and surround the mall.

If you find anything, report back straightaway.

- Yeah, and remember, they'll have weapons

and not much left to lose, so be careful.

- You weren't thinking of leaving, were you, May?

Just when the fun's about to start.

- What's it to you, Ebony?

- Well, I just think you should

have a chance to clear your name properly, that's all.

- I've already cleared my name.

I rescued Brady, remember?

- [Ebony] Oh, come on.

You did that for yourself.

- This isn't gonna be over just because

those losers up there finally give themselves up.

There's gonna be a whole lot of questions.

Like who collaborated with the enemy.

Ever heard of war crime trials?

- I don't have to take this.

- Fine.

Then walk away.

With every step you take, you're just proving our point.

- [Guardian] What Zoot is about to bestow on you

is a great privilege.

Soon all your impurities will be cleansed.

You will become at one with the master.

- [Ned] Alice!

- What are you doing?

- [Ned] I'm stuck.

- I told you the hole wasn't big enough, Ned.

Don't you ever listen?

- [Ned] Oh, spare me the lecture and get me out.

- Well, what do you want me to do, push?

- [Ned] No, pull, you idiot!

- Well, I don't think you're in any position

to be calling people names, Ned.

- [Ned] Are you gonna help me?

- I've gotta go get the guys. They've gotta see this.

- [Ned] No, please!

- I'll be right back.

Don't go anywhere.

(Ned grunts)

Oh, hi.

I didn't know we had company.

- Are you alone?

- Alone, sure.

(Ned grunts)

Um, you can't go in there.

For a very good reason.

- Which is?

- Which is that...

- I wasn't decent?

Isn't it a little early

to go barging into someone's bedroom?

- You sleep in the basement?

- Yeah.

So?

- Look, guys, we tend to make a lot of noise when we're,

you know, so we sleep down here.

That way we don't disturb the others.

Right, Alice?

- Right.

- Every entrance is sealed tight.

There's no way in.

- What about the main doors?

- We can go as far as the grille,

at least get a look at him.

- Well, that could be useful if we need to negotiate.

- Negotiate?

- Take it easy, Lex.

Remember, we've got them trapped,

whichever way you look at it,

we've won.

- [Guardian on Loudspeaker] This is your Guardian speaking.

You have served me well.

Join us and be reborn in Zoot's cleansing fire.

- Cleansing fire?

- He's gonna torch the place.

- You were saying, Bray?

Who's won, exactly?

- Join us and be chosen.

Peace through power and chaos.

- It's all my fault, Alice.

Everything I did, it just made him worse.

- Don't blame yourself, Tai-San.

The guy wasn't worth the effort.

You weren't to know.

- Listen, we made a tunnel in the basement.

It's kinda small, but some of the kids could get out.

- What have we got to lose?

- What about the guards?

- Think we could hold them off?

- Be fun trying.

- We will all live together in peace,

at one with the universe.

- What, no fighting?

- Sounds kinda dull to me.

- All right, kids.

When you hear the magic word, run like crazy.

- KC knows the way, so just follow him.

Good luck.

- Answer the call,

and be reunited for all eternity with your master, Zoot.

- That's the magic word!

- This way.

- Stop it, stop this fighting.

This is not the time.

- This is the perfect time.

- Alice!

- Stop it, now!

- Don't you understand the concept of a fair fight?

- Save your breath, Alice.

At least we tried.

- Don't you see?

You're wasting precious time.

Pledge yourselves to Zoot while you still can.

- Some of us already have.

- Ah, the Mall Rats' newest recruit.

I wondered when you'd show yourself.

- What you are about to do is wrong.

This was never part of Zoot's plan.

The Guardian has tricked you.

(timer beeping)

What is to be gained from this,

since we'll all be with Zoot in good time?

How do we spread his word throughout the world

if everything ends here?

The Guardian has taken Zoot's teachings

and distorted them to suit his own purpose.

In surrendering your own lives

and the lives of innocent children,

you commit a terrible crime, which no one,

not even Zoot, could ever forgive.

(crowd talking)

- Stay back.

Don't you understand, you're in danger if you stay here.

Stay back!

- [Lex] What do they want? - What does anyone want?

An answer.

- Lex, Bray!

- [Amber] Hey, KC!

- There's a way in through the car park

and into the basement.

But it's suicide, he's got a bomb in there.

- What?

Show me.

Ebony, Pride, Lex.

- We're with you.

- We'll go through the front entrance.

We might be able to distract him.

- Go for it.

- Come on.

- Good luck.

- You too.

- Stand up for yourselves.

Don't let him tell you what Zoot wants.

Ask him yourselves, in your prayers.

He wants you to continue with your mission, not--

- Do you hear that, friends?

What do they remind you of,

these oh-so-reasonable arguments?

Yes.

The old world.

The adult world.

The world that Zoot swept aside forever.

But you see, that world returns to haunt us

in the guise of this man, this would-be adult

who dares to accuse me of distorting Zoot's teachings.

Will you let him rob you of the glory

you have fought so hard for?

- [Guards] Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot,

Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot.

- What is that?

Listen.

- We've run out of time.

The bomb's wired to a clock.

And besides, there are guards everywhere.

- Maybe we can reason with them.

- With them?

- Face it, Bray, the Guardian only answers to Zoot now.

Here, let me through.

- [Guards] Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot,

Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot,

Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot, Zoot.

- Guardian!

- [Guards] Zoot, Zoot, Zoot.

- She's back!

Amber!

- Well, well.

So this is the famous Amber, back from the dead.

Pity you're too late.

Nothing can save your friends now.

Nothing but Zoot's love, and they don't seem to want it.

- What are you trying to achieve?

What are you trying to prove, Guardian?

You think you'll be remembered for this?

You're so wrong.

When all this is over, you'll be forgotten in a week.

- Not true!

- But it is true.

I've been talking to the kids you brainwashed,

and you have no support left!

When you die, the memory of Zoot dies with you!

(timer beeping)

- Surprise attack.

We hit them from three sides.

- It's our only option.

- No.

No, it's not.

I've got a better one.

- What is it?

- No time to explain.

Bray, you come with me.

- Bray, we need you.

- Look, if this is gonna work,

you've gotta come with me right now.

Just trust me, just this once.

- Come on, Ebony, I guess it's up to us now.

- Hey, this had better be good.

- Give it up, Guardian.

You've lost, just have the guts to admit it.

- We will be remembered!

- No.

No, we won't be.

But you will be, Guardian.

You will be remembered as a destroyer of innocent children.

But that's not what you are.

I've seen into your heart, and you are kind, and gentle.

- Keep back.

- We can be together, you and I.

Remember?

There's no need to be alone anymore.

- Get away from him, Tai-San.

How do you defuse this thing?

- We're too late.

- Lex, let me talk to him.

- I'm gonna pull the wires out.

- No.

If you touch it, you'll set it off.

Only he can disarm it.

- Get outta here.

Save yourselves.

There's still time.

- No.

We're not going anywhere.

We're in this together.

- Why can't you see, all of you?

Your suffering is over.

In a few seconds, you will see I was right.

- [Bray] Guardian.

- What?

Who's there?

- Why have you betrayed me?

- Zoot?

- Power and chaos!

Power and chaos!

Power and chaos!
