[lively music]

[talking distinctly]

- Do they do a special discount for airheads?

- [laughs] These Mall Rats have things to trade.

She paid up front.

And before you ask, I don't know if they shared a room.

- Like I care?

I know.

I need my head examined.

I just never quite got over the guy.

- You know, and well, with all the dances and everything--

- Well, if it's any consolation, I'm in the same boat.

- You and Slate, I thought you were--

- Yeah, kind of,

but for how long?

- Because of Ebony?

- Can you keep a secret?

He hasn't got long to live.

- Who, Slate?

How come?

- He doesn't talk about it

but I've given it a lot of thought

and made a decision.

I'm gonna try and have his baby.

There's still time.

- A baby, Ruby are you nuts?

- Oh, probably.

But what the hell?

I figure if they go ahead with this rebellion,

half the men are gonna come back anyway.

Siva, if you really care about Lex,

you should tell him everything.

["The Tribe Theme"]

[baby fussing]

- Where is Sector Four?

I've never even been there.

Stupid work parties.

- What have they got you on?

Graffiti patrol?

- That's if I can find the place.

- Oh, you got a three, take a 12--

- I wasn't asking you, traitor.

Anyway, shouldn't you be getting back

to your torture lesson?

- Oh, I'm fine, on a count of living with you

is actually torture enough.

- It's kinda quiet around here this morning.

- Yeah, you know why?

No blabbermouth.

- Allie, you can be a bit of a blabbermouth

yourself sometimes, you know that?

- Where is Gel, anyway?

- She went off to Liberty to be with Lex.

Kind of saw her point.

- Well, I'm out of here.

I'll see you guys later.

- Where you going, May?

- The parastation.

I'm on for a shift.

- Oh, didn't they tell you?

I fixed it for you to work with Salene

in the kindergarten in Sector 10.

- [May] Oh.

- Well, it means a later start

and you get to work together, so,

I hope that's okay?

- Sure it is.

Why wouldn't it be? [dramatic music]

- Yeah, great idea.

Thanks, Amber.

- Did he say when he'll be back?

- I told you, he didn't say anything.

He just took the bike and left.

- Yeah, that was yesterday.

He could be bringing Mega back here.

We should at least be posting guides

on the route into town.

- Is that what you think?

Ram's gonna sell us out?

- I'm saying it's a possibility.

- Not a chance.

He's my business partner.

He'll be back.

- Your what?

Business partner?

- Yeah.

Kind of.

- Exactly what kind of business, Lex?

- Business of bringing Mega down.

Just like you.

Yo!

Hey, just the man I wanted to see.

Have you got a notebook on you?

Thanks.

- Should've known.

I mean, all my planning,

I didn't see what was right under my nose.

- How could you?

You put your faith in me and I betrayed you.

- No, no, I

wasn't thinking of you, I meant Mega.

And there he was smiling in my face the whole time.

Just waiting to stab me in the back.

Guess you two must've got pretty close, huh?

- Me and Mega?

Oh please.

I could never work him out.

He's a cold fish.

Always playing the percentages.

- Like a machine.

I used to admire those qualities.

- He's gonna be hard to beat.

He has no emotions.

No weaknesses.

- Everyone has a weakness, Javi.

I'm living proof of that.

- So do you really prefer this Liberty over cyberspace?

- Well, you can't get a decent latte, but,

apart from that, it's okay.

[light music]

- Sammy, look,

try not to worry about Gel.

I'm sure she'll be fine.

- I'm not worried.

If she wants to take a stupid risk, it's her own lookout.

- She knows to be careful when she's outside of the zone.

- Why didn't you warn her about Lex?

I thought you women stuck together.

- She wouldn't listen.

Listen, Sammy, I know it might sound weird,

but falling for the wrong guy is just something

that she's gotta do right now

to get it out of her system.

It's really nice that you care about her, though.

- I don't care about anyone.

- Hey, Mega's on his way over here.

- What does he want?

- Who does he want, you mean?

I think we know the answer.

- Allie, would you knock it off?

Jack's only doing what he set out to do.

- Yeah, with your encouragement.

- Yeah, well he doesn't have to enjoy it so much.

[daunting music]

- Did I come at a bad time?

- What do you want, Mega?

- The broadcast.

I'm introducing the punishment program.

I just wanted to say, if you change your mind about it,

I might be prepared to relax one or two of the laws.

- Which laws?

- The curfew?

- Are you offering me a bribe?

- Call it a trade.

- Yeah, all right.

- Can't believe it.

- Allie--

- No, Amber, don't bother.

You know what?

I don't belong here with you city leaders.

I'll leave you to your trading.

- Hey mate, do you wanna go work on my drones?

- Sure.

- Right, let's go.

- I leave you in charge for a couple of days

and look what I find.

- What?

- These sums don't add up, Darryl.

- We made a profit.

- Yeah, I know we did.

The question is, how much of that went into your pocket?

- None of it, I swear.

- Come on, pal, you know who you're dealing with.

You must've skimmed some off the top.

- You told me not to.

- Lex.

- I'm gonna let it go this time

but you're on probation, pal, remember that.

- Ram, there you are.

- How'd you go with Mega?

Did you manage to get that software?

- I've got seminar.

It's just a matter of time.

What about you?

Jay said he'd thought you'd defected.

Something about coming back with a pile of Technos.

- No, not quite.

- Oh my gosh.

- What is this?

- Look, it's okay, Lex, I can vouch for Java.

She's one of us now.

- One of us?

I think I'll be the judge of that.

- [Ram] Come on, Javi.

- Don't Javi me.

I wanna know what I got myself into.

Start talking, Ram.

[dramatic music]

- He's not a bad person.

He's just misunderstood, that's all.

- What's to understand?

He's an alley cat.

Tell me, Ebony.

What do they see in Lex?

- Takes all kinds.

I think you should go for it, Gel.

- You do?

- Sure!

Have your fun

and then kick his butt out the door.

[dramatic music]

Java?

- So it's true.

- What are you doing here?

- I was beginning to wonder that myself.

Now it's suddenly very clear.

What's the matter, Ebony, you look rattled.

Not so tough without a pride of lions to back you up.

- Java, don't do this.

- Stay out of it, Ram.

This is a family thing.

- You think I'm scared of you?

- Oh, you better be.

[sad violin music]

- What are you waiting for?

Go on, delete me.

And get it over with.

- I wouldn't give you the satisfaction.

No, this has got to be done right.

I'll wait 'til you're ready.

- Can we talk about this?

Whatever's happened, she's still your sister.

- Yeah, she's been there, making my life a misery.

Now she's going down.

We finish this today.

[knocking]

- Well, no sign of Java?

- Not in the safe zone.

- Then start looking outside it.

I want her found.

Women, eh, Jack?

Just never know what they're gonna do next.

- Oh, I didn't know you and Java were an item.

- We're not.

I don't allow emotions to cloud my intellect.

I've seen what it can do to other people.

Prevents them from fulfilling their destiny.

Oh, I didn't mean you and Allie.

I'm sure you guys'll work things out.

- Yeah.

- What have you got for me?

- Don't know where we are, don't know how many we are.

We're sitting ducks here.

- Sure, if Java tells him.

- She won't.

- How do you know?

- I just know.

- Oh, well that's very reassuring.

Slate, we have to stop her leaving town.

- She's not gonna be leaving in a hurry.

She's in the stables.

- Well, I guess it's up to me.

- Jay, you're not going anywhere.

- Try and stop me.

- Look, I think you're looking at this the wrong way 'round.

Java's come over to our side.

She has inside knowledge of Mega's operation.

She can help us.

- Well then, talk to her.

Get her to call off the feud.

[light music]

- I'll try.

- She can't rat out her own sister, Siva.

She couldn't do that.

- It's not the first time she's tried.

- Bet it'll be the last.

- There you go.

[kids playing] You're done.

Go off and play.

- You should take a break.

- Thanks, I suppose I could do with a coffee.

Do you--

- Ah, no, go ahead.

- Are you sure?

I don't mind.

- What are we doing, Salene?

- I think it's called avoiding the issue.

- We need to talk.

- I know.

Later, okay?

- Good.

- Now, do you want that coffee?

- Yeah, I'd love a coffee.

[heavy piano music]

Who's next?

You?

- You should've told me.

- I didn't know how.

- Look, you can still have your rebellion.

You'll just have one less rebel,

so don't give me a hard time, okay?

When it's all over, we'll talk about Mega.

- If you're still alive.

- Thanks for the vote of confidence.

- Look, I don't care about the damn rebellion,

all right, Java?

I care about you.

- I have to do this, Ram.

If you really care so much, stay out of it.

["The Tribe Theme"]

- Hey.

Is Allie okay?

- She's gone for a walk outside.

I don't think she's talking to me.

- Why take it out on you?

I'm the one who's selling out.

- I encouraged you.

- How?

- By being selfish,

by wanting the easy life for Brady and me,

and now look what's happened.

Jack has virtually gone over the Technos.

You're having to play along.

- Trudy, it's not selfish to want your child to eat.

I want the same thing.

And Jack, you know, don't worry about him.

He's far too intelligent to fall for Mega's line.

He'll come back to us.

You'll see.

[dramatic music]

- All right, okay, you see,

the prisoner needs to find his way around the maze

and then the doors close behind him

so once he's chosen a direction,

he has to face whatever lies ahead.

- Can he ever escape?

- He has a slim chance.

And that's only if he makes all the right choices.

Of course, we can make the choices for him

or we can get the audience to do it.

- What was your inspiration?

- Well, it was um, rats.

- Mall Rats?

You don't have to answer that.

It's good, Jack, it's very good.

- So, what are you gonna do?

- I don't have much choice, do I?

- You could leave town.

Okay, bad idea.

But she couldn't hurt you if you were unarmed.

Maybe you could talk some sense into her.

- You want me to go meet her with no weapon?

Siva, you're forgetting that she set me up

as the bride of Zoot,

filled my head with nightmares?

She's got this coming.

- This is Java you're talking about!

We grew up together!

Played sandcastles, swapped clothes, boyfriends!

- You're breaking my heart.

- No, you're breaking mine.

Both of you.

You had your revenge, Ebony.

You kept her locked up in that cage.

Now let it go.

- It's too late.

[dramatic orchestral music]

- It would be stupid to stop being friends

over something like that.

- That's exactly how I feel like.

I wanted to talk to you about it

but I was scared you'd be mad at me.

- Why would I be mad at you?

- I don't know.

I just don't wanna give you the wrong idea.

- Two people that show that they care for each other.

What's wrong with that?

- So that's how it was.

And I want you to know, May,

I do care about you.

- But?

- But nothing.

We're good friends and we always will be.

Right?

- Right.

[light string music]

- I'm giving odds of three to one.

Any takers?

- What do we win?

- You've seen the loot around here.

- Three to one?

Count me in.

- Hey.

I'm Darryl.

- Gel.

- Having a good time?

- Is it always like this?

Fights and everything?

- Liberty?

Pretty much.

- Don't you get scared.

- I can take care of myself.

Tell you what, things get rough,

you stick with me, all right?

- Oh, I'm not scared.

It's kind of exciting.

Besides, I've got Lex to take care of me.

- Darryl, sherking on the job?

- Sorry, Boss, just takin' a break.

- We're losing business.

Hop to it.

- He gets so jealous.

- What are you doing?

- Hey, Lex, want some of the action?

- What action?

- Latty's giving three to one on Java wiping out Ebony.

- Get outta here!

So who's in?

- Siva's in a bad way.

- Can't be easy knowing you're gonna lose a sister.

- Well, I wish I could sympathize

but I was just kinda hoping they'd get rid of each other.

[dramatic music]

Slate.

- Hey, where are you going?

- What, I need to get your permission

to go to the bathroom now?

- Look, Ebony, I've been thinking.

Jay's right.

I'm supposed to be making some decisions around here.

I'm gonna run Java out of town.

- No.

- [Slate] But why not?

- Because I said so.

Oh, Slate going all mushy on me?

- I'm just protecting my investment.

- Is that what I am to you?

- No.

Ebony, look, I've saved your life a couple of times.

I don't wanna see you throw it away now.

- Just stop worrying.

I can handle Java.

[dramatic music]

- Hey, how's the new generation of Technos coming along?

- Well, it was fun.

I only wish they'd invent retro diapers, though.

- Tell me about it.

Hey, do you guys want something to eat?

- Yeah, thanks.

- Get it while it's hot.

- I'm gonna crash on the city net for a while.

Catch up with propaganda.

You coming?

- I'll be along soon.

[light music]

- Java, tell me, is there nothing I can say?

- You can wish me luck.

- You're out of luck, Java.

There'll be nobody getting hurt in Liberty

without my say-so.

Just leave town now,

and we'll forget this ever happened.

- And you are?

- I'm the sheriff around these parts.

As good as.

- Slate, right?

- Yeah.

- Give me the weapon.

- Sure.

Here. [zapping]

- Java, no!

- Not so tough after all, huh?

Don't worry, it was set on Stun.

He'll come 'round in a few minutes.

- Javi, wait.

Why don't you just leave it on Stun, all right?

For old times' sake.

- Sorry, Ram.

- He's out there.

- I'm gonna talk to her.

- Siva, no!

It won't do any good.

Ruby.

- Come on.

I'll be in my room.

[dramatic music]

- [Jay] At least one sister loves you.

- Jay, can you give me any advice?

- Well, the smart money's on Java.

My money's on you.

- Thanks.

Oh, Jay, just one thing,

was I wrong?

You and Amber.

Did you really not have a thing together?

- You were wrong.

- But you'd liked to have, though, huh?

You still would, wouldn't you?

- I don't know why I'm so upset.

I always knew this day would come.

- You and Ebony have got a lot closer lately.

- No, it's not that.

They're both a part of me.

- I know.

- Lex,

I've been so mean to you.

- Ssh. - No.

I have to tell you.

It was revenge.

I didn't want us to break up.

You were always the one for me.

It was always you.

[light music]

[moves into daunting music]

- Call it off, Java!

If there's blood spread around here,

you'll pay for it.

- I see you've made some new friends.

That's nice.

They obviously don't know the real Ebony, though, do they?

- Maybe you can never know another person

unless they're flesh and blood.

- Meaning?

- Siva wants us to start again.

- Forget it.

- What, you don't believe me?

- Even if it's true, you know I can't do that.

If I don't do this now,

I'll spent the rest of my life looking over my shoulder

just waiting for you to do it to me.

She's the real evil one here, not me.

I want you all to know that.

- I don't wanna do this, Java.

It's Mega we should be gunning for.

- Oh, this rebellion I hear so much about?

- We're getting ready to make our move.

There are good people here, Java.

- You mean like Slate?

He must've really liked you.

- Must have?

- That's right.

He was begging for your life, so I finished him,

and now it's your turn.

- No! [zapping]

[yelling] [dramatic music]

- Siva!

- Ebony.

- Siva, I'm here.

Look, try not to talk, okay?

We're gonna be okay.

- Where's Java?

Is she okay?

- [Ebony] Yeah.

Yeah, she's fine.

- Promise me you'll make up, you two.

- I promise.

Siva?

Siva!
