- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

[soft music]

- Round and round the garden.

Goes the teddy bear.

One step, two step.

[giggling]

[soft music]

- Any news of them?

- You gonna get up?

Or are you gonna stay there until tomorrow morning?

- What time is it?

- It's time we're not here.

- You slave driver.

[laughing]

- Come on, Slade.

Today's gonna be explosive

and I don't want to miss a single one.

- Well, how can you?

You're the one planning them.

- Well, we can't hang around here all day.

We've got fuses to light.

- What's the big rush?

Mega's not going anywhere.

What about lighting my fuse first?

[soft music]

- Wow, look at this.

I wonder who it belongs to.

- Morning.

How'd you sleep?

- Badly.

- We don't have much in the way of toys but

this was the best I could find.

- Thank you, I'm sure Brady really appreciates it.

You are full of surprises, you know?

It's not really the type of thing that--

- Yeah, more Jay's line of duty, huh?

A raw nerve?

What was it that made you want to leave

the security of the city, Trudy?

Something to do with Jay?

Well, try and eat something.

And don't worry, you're safe here.

[soft music]

- Sorry, you okay?

No broken bones, I hope.

You bite your tongue?

I got it.

You haven't brushed your teeth yet.

- Lex, of course I did.

How are you?

- All the better for seeing you.

- You are?

You mean, you don't mind about, you know?

- You're a sweet chick.

And I understand you want it to be right.

Right guy, right time.

I can wait.

You don't mind me waiting, do you?

- No no, of course not.

- Great, that's just what I wanted to hear.

You know, Gel, you and me when the time is right,

there's gonna be fireworks.

You know what I'm saying?

And I deeply respect you so I don't wanna

push you anywhere you don't wanna go.

I want everything between us to be really special.

- So do I.

- Good.

So what you up to?

- Breakfast, you wanna join me?

- Not really hungry.

But I will catch you later.

[soft music]

- Shouldn't you ask my permission

before you go altering my doors?

- I'm not having thieving little brats

messing around with my equipment.

- Lottie is just a little kid.

- Exactly.

- You know, I thought maybe you were starting

to be a normal human being.

But now I'm not so sure.

- Have you any idea how much time

and effort I have put in to perfecting

the program I have in there?

I thought that you wanted this

just as much as I do.

- You know I do.

If it saves Slade.

- Saves him for who?

- For himself.

What else he does is up to him.

- Look.

If it's any comfort,

I'm as concerned for Slade as you are.

I mean, I want him back here,

not out there playing war games

with that crazy hell cat.

- From what I hear, you like playing war games of your own.

- Meaning?

- Just wondering what you're cooking up in there.

Apart from Slade's cure.

- Maybe one day you'll find out.

If there is anything else.

- I've got a funny feeling if I do,

it's gonna be too late to do anything about it anyway.

You gonna give me a key for that?

So I can clean your room?

- Oh, I don't think so.

Wouldn't like to see it ending up

in thieving little hands now, would we?

[soft music]

- [Sammy] I wonder who the love letter's for.

- Not you, that's for sure.

You're way too little.

- Well, size doesn't matter.

Anyway, I hope it's not for me.

She's not my type.

- What is your type?

- Well, someone who's kind and pretty.

- Boring.

You shouldn't be so shallow.

Aim high, go for someone clever.

Like me.

- I know who it is.

- Who?

- Lex, I bet it's Lex.

- It better not be.

- Hi.

- Is it true?

- Is what true?

- About Lex.

- What about him?

- You stay out of this.

If you're even thinking about having a fling with Lex,

you better back off right now.

He's spoken for.

- Oh, don't make me laugh.

Lex?

I plumbed those depths when you were in diapers, honey,

and I wouldn't give him a second chance

even if he begged me.

- You're lying.

You wrote that love letter to him, didn't you?

You must think I'm stupid.

- Bullseye.

- She's not stupid.

- You're covering up, aren't you?

It's so obvious, I can tell by your face.

- Gel, would you listen to yourself?

For God's sakes, stop being so childish.

May's already told you it's got nothing to do with Lex.

- Well, who else could it be?

[soft music]

- Brady!

Hey, thank goodness.

What are you doing here?

Hey, where's Mommy, huh?

Where's Trudy?

- Mommy's here, not that you care.

Would you mind putting down my daughter?

- Trudy, we've been worried sick about you.

- Oh really?

I thought you'd be glad to see the back of me

so you can get on with cheating with my boyfriend.

- Trudy, please.

- Go away, Amber.

You are a traitor and I never want to see you again.

- Trudy, please, you can't stay here.

Trudy please, come back to the mall

so we can talk.

[soft music]

[roaring]

[laughing]

- Why did she go to the hotel?

She doesn't even like him.

- She's got a kid.

She can't exactly wander the streets, can she?

And if she feels she can't be at the mall,

well, where else can she go?

- This is all my fault.

I pushed her away.

- Try we pushed her away.

I'm as much to blame.

- Okay, we.

- Now try not deliberately.

It just happened.

Jay, she was so upset.

I didn't mean to hurt her.

- You want to end it?

- No.

I mean, I can't go back now.

It's done.

I just don't think she'll ever forgive me.

- No, she will.

In time.

She just needs space.

I just hope that she doesn't speak

to Mega in the meantime.

- What about?

- You or Jack.

One slip could give it all away.

And then that'll put you guys in danger.

- No no, Trudy would never--

- She's hurt and angry.

I mean, she might want to get her own back.

- No, I don't believe that.

No matter how angry Trudy is,

she'd never do anything to put

the Mall Rats in danger, she wouldn't.

- I just hope that you're right.

[soft music]

- I really admire your nerve, Jack.

- Yeah?

- Can't be easy for you in the mall at the moment.

And I don't suppose this Trudy situation helps.

- What do you mean?

- You know.

Her running away with her little girl.

- She did.

- Now of course, I can understand why.

Would've been hard for her to stay.

But she's with us now and we'll look after her.

- Wait, Trudy's here?

- Yes, why not?

- Oh, I don't know what you're talking about.

I didn't even know she left.

- Yeah.

Well, perhaps only those who need to know, know, hey?

- Yeah.

[soft music]

- You hungry?

- For what?

- I don't know.

There's some kind of hunger about you.

Just can't put my finger on it.

Why'd you hook up with Ram?

- I could ask you the same question.

- Then I'll answer it, if you do.

- Mm-hmm.

- He wanted the full set.

Java, Siva, me.

And I wanted the power.

And the knowledge that he wanted me the most.

- And did he?

- Early on, he thought he did.

But I guess poor Java won that award in the end.

You?

- We were working together on a computer program.

- For the virtual casino?

- No, this one's aimed at Mega.

Bringing him down big time.

- Then why am I wasting my time

holding up food wagons?

- It's a necessary diversion.

Stop Mega sussing out there's a bigger threat.

- Which he would if he knew Ram was still around.

Were you gonna tell me about this?

- Sure, when you asked.

- You and Ram, huh?

Well, I guess you found the right mind for the job.

No one can match Ram's brain.

So how you gonna stick it to Mega?

- Lex is working on it right now.

- Whoa, hang on, you have totally lost me now.

So, we're talking about the Lex

that would sell his granny if he had one?

- Mm-hmm.

- So, enlighten me.

- Well, he's being a brave boy.

Stealing call files from Mega's computer.

- For the good of mankind?

- Or for the good of Lex.

He thinks the files are imperative

for upgrading the virtual casino.

You know, making it more exciting, more profitable.

Him richer.

- Oh my God, that's brilliant.

So you got Lex to do a good deed

and he thinks he's gonna get rich.

I love it.

[laughs]

Oh boy, will he be mad when he finds out.

But promise me.

When he does, let me be there.

And I want to be there when you take Mega out too.

- Oh, I'm banking on that.

[soft music]

- I was wondering if you wanted to come for a walk.

Get out of this place for awhile.

- I don't think so.

- Well, sitting here feeling sad

isn't gonna make you feel any better.

- Maybe I don't want to feel better.

- Do you want to talk about it?

Must've been really bad, whatever happened.

- Nothing happened.

Something just stopped happening.

- Stopped?

- For one tiny moment in my life, I wasn't alone.

I don't mean Brady.

I mean someone, you know?

And it felt so good.

Not being alone.

Sharing.

Ever since the virus, I have felt so alone.

I was pregnant and it has been so hard.

- Can't have been easy.

- I just, I need to--

- What do you need?

- I need stability, routine.

No more awful surprises.

We need somewhere safe.

I want that for Brady more than anything.

- I understand that.

That's what I want too, stability.

- I thought your agenda was taking over the city.

- No, eliminating chaos.

Providing a safe zone.

- For you?

- For everyone.

We have a lot in common, Trudy.

- Sorry, I don't see that.

- When the virus came, I was young.

Scared.

More than anything, I wanted someone to look after me.

To save me from the chaos.

- Please, please don't go.

- And he just left you there?

- I trusted him.

Thought he would look after me.

Instead, he just walked out of my life.

- What did you do?

How did you survive?

- The Technos saved me.

Taught me everything, made me smart.

But I'll never forgive him.

Leaving me there.

- Hey!

[clanging]

- Stop that damn kid from looking at me, all right?

- You touch a hair on her head

and I swear I'm gonna have to use this.

- Fools, cowards, women, and thieving little kids.

I mean, that's my company here.

I mean, I used to own this city.

And now I'm reduced to hiding away

with all these idiots.

I'm just nervous, you know?

If Slade doesn't come back.

I'm gonna go up to my room and do some work.

If you don't mind,

I don't really wanna be disturbed.

I'm sorry.

[soft music]

- Cabin fever?

- I've got a scary feeling that his madness

runs a lot deeper than that.

- He's horrid.

I hate him.

- Hey, you just stay away from him.

He's not gonna be here forever.

- So what happens when he gets all his toys together

or whatever he's got up there in his room?

- Well, let's just hope Slade can handle him,

because I'm not sure anybody else can.

- I told you something

I've never told anyone else.

Showed a weakness.

- Don't worry.

I won't say a word.

Not if you don't want me to.

- I'm alone too, Trudy.

Just like you.

There are people you don't even know but

feel you can trust instantly, don't you think?

- I guess.

- I hope you'll learn to trust me, Trudy.

- Maybe.

- I know it won't be easy.

Trusting again.

It wasn't for me.

Someone's hurt you badly, very badly.

Haven't they?

And if I can help...

- The funny thing is, I don't even blame her.

I think I knew he and Amber

were made for each other right from the start.

I just hoped he'd love me more.

[soft music]

- You're following me.

- Yeah.

It's just not gonna go away, is it?

- You feel it too.

- No, that's not what I meant.

We have to discuss this, get it out in the open.

- God, I'm so with you on that.

People will understand.

- May, will you stop misinterpreting

everything I say and just listen?

I care about you as a friend,

but I don't have those sorts of feelings.

- You mean, you're afraid to have those sorts of feelings.

- No, May.

That's not the way I'm reading the situation.

- Well, what are you saying?

That you're emotionally dyslexic?

Is that why you almost moved out of our room?

- I thought about moving out

because it seemed things would be better that way.

And I'm still thinking that maybe I should've.

[soft music]

- Amber.

Haven't seen you all day.

Is this a social visit or is there a problem?

- Jack said Trudy was here.

Is she in some sort of trouble?

- I didn't realize Jack had time to gossip.

- You could've sent word, we're her friends.

- I didn't know whether or not

you were the cause of her problem.

- What's she told you?

- Oh, very little.

I think Zoot's broadcast got to her.

Her little girl is his daughter, after all.

Or maybe it's something closer to home.

- Like what?

- I thought you might have an idea.

You're her friend.

- Can I see her?

- She was hysterical, we had to sedate her.

I expect she'll be back in the mall soon with her friends.

When she gets over whatever it is

that's been bugging her.

[soft music]

- Come on.

[beeping]

Yes.

[soft music]

- I thought you might like to come see the control room.

It's the center of all my operations.

- Why do you want to show it to me?

- Because, because it's something I'm very proud of.

And I'd like you to see what I do.

How I deal with chaos.

- Okay, lead the way.

- Okay.

[soft music]

- Easy peasy.

[beeping]

- I know what you're really trying to do.

- What?

- You're trying to cheer me up.

Make me forget about everything.

- Am I succeeding?

- I'll let you know.

The one thing I can say.

You are full of surprises.

- I hope I have a few more that will surprise you.

[sirens blaring] The control room.

- What?

[sirens blaring]

- Come on, you're not supposed to do this.

Oh, please.

[sirens blaring]

- Yes?

- [Guard] Intruder in operations, sir.

- I know someone's in the operations room.

I'm right outside.

- [Guard] Your orders, sir? - Get some men down here now

and secure the entire area.

[sirens blaring]

Must've gone that way, after them.

[sirens blaring]

No.

- What's happening?

- It was Java, she was here.

- But that's impossible, Java's dead.

[soft music]

- How'd it go, did you get it?

- Yeah, here you go.

- Great, you are a genius, come on.

- [Announcer] News flash, news flash.

News flash, news flash.

- Oh, what now?

- This is an important news flash.

Have you seen this man?

- Oh no.

- He is a dangerous criminal

and is wanted for crimes against the city.

If you see him, apprehend him at once.

- That's him, get him.

- [Lex] Come on!
