Original subtitles

- Run!

- I know you Barbs are just as frightened

of the machines as the Ants are.

- I have only one thing to say to you.

Discard!

(rat squeaking)

(tribal music)

(indistinct reporting)

(yelling)

- Where are you, rats?

Where are you?

Rats!

Where are you, my Prince?

Where did he go?

No! No!

(yelling)

- Gwyn, wake up Gwyn.

We said we'd go swimming.

The water's freezing at first, but it really wakes you up

and you feel great afterwards.

- I feel great now.

- Sometimes it's like you don't really wanna be a Barb.

- That's not true.

Look. I'm getting up.

By the way, I've got some good news for you.

I'm not the only one joining up today.

- Who else?

- Sky.

He told me himself.

- Why didn't he say anything?

- Probably wanted to surprise you.

- I've gotta tell everybody.

(gentle music)

- Cass, are you okay?

Still feeling bad about last night?

- Everything was going so well!

Even Jag and Omar were beginning to get on at last

and I just ruined everything.

- It wasn't your fault.

I was the one who gave you the chocolate, wasn't I.

- But I cooked with it.

I guess in the old time they didn't eat it with pumpkin.

- Jag will never forgive us.

- Did you see his face?

And poor Omar trying to pretend it was delicious.

(laughing)

- Making fun of me as usual.

- No.

Of course not.

- We were just wondering

what Jag's upset stomach might cost us.

- It's all right.

We'll keep him in check.

I just spoke to Dan.

Sky's going to be joining the Barbs now,

so we'll be seeing much less of him.

- He can't do that!

He can't lead the Ants and the Barbs if he's a Barb.

He's bound to favor his own tribe.

- Fine by me.

He should've never been the leader in the first place.

- Can I help?

- I can manage.

Figured out what you're gonna give Gwyn at the ceremony?

- What about you?

- I already gave her a cof-fig.

Why don't you try making her something?

- What's he upset about?

- His rat.

- His rat?

This mess with the Ants and the Barbs

and all he's worried about is a rodent?

Shadow, if you want a pet rat, go down to the plantation.

Look in a footstool.

It's crawling with them!

(yelling)

- Richard didn't see it coming.

His rat.

Scared as punch he would betray me.

- I would never have guessed.

- 12.

How did 20 eggs become 12?

Don't tell me Leanne and Erin were looking after them?

- These are all going to hatch.

I just know it.

- Good for you, Sal.

I hope you're right.

Omar.

- Sky.

Nice to see you.

- It is?

- Yeah!

We were worried last night.

You disappeared during dinner.

- Seems like my dinner was over.

Anyway, I had things on my mind.

- I just wanted to let you know if you ever need anything,

I'm here.

- Faygar?

Something really weird just happened.

Faygar?

- Still no sign of your pet?

Some idiot Discard must have left his cage open.

I'll find him.

The Discard.

- If you do, I'd like to deal with him myself.

- If that's what you want.

But we've got important work to do.

We can't the little matter

of a pet being destroyed distract us.

- Destroyed?

- Lost, destroyed, whatever.

We're so close to dealing with Sky.

Gwyn has done a brilliant job and so have you.

(screaming)

- What was that?

- I set a trap for Harmony.

Sounds like she fell into it.

What's going on here?

- Don't look at me.

- Harmony, what happened to your hair?

- Stupid Discards!

I want them banished!

Forever!

Look at this.

It's glue.

It'll never wash out!

What am I to do?

- You should've thought of that before.

- Sorry?

- Before you decided to betray me.

- But I di--

- I switched your hair gel.

Don't know what you're laughing about.

I actually did away with your stupid rat.

- What?

- It was time to teach you both a lesson.

You both betrayed me.

And if anyone's going to be banished around here,

it's you two!

- What can I give Gwyn?

I'm useless at carving.

- It's best to give something of your own,

something personal.

- I don't have anything personal.

- I've got a little wooden box you could give her.

- A box?

- Yeah, for keeping stuff in.

But I wouldn't worry.

I don't think Gwyn's going to become a Barb anyway.

- Why?

- Dan, are Barbs allowed to do anything on their own?

- Oh.

- I have to think about becoming a Barb.

I have to talk to the trees.

- Sure.

I'll go back.

- You may be the leader, Zora.

But that doesn't mean you're free to make every decision

by yourself.

- I already told you.

Gwyn's Dan's sister and has every right to be part

of this tribe.

- And what about Sky?

- You know he'll make a good Barb.

Back me up, Kwarli.

- You should've asked for my opinion.

- Well then why do you object so strongly?

I'll tell you.

You're afraid.

Afraid about hunt-chu.

You're afraid he'll make a better Barb than you.

- Who are we talking about?

He sounds pretty cool.

- Sky.

- You don't just walk into our tribe, Sky.

You have to be invited.

- What are you talking about?

- Welcome to the Barbs.

- What do you mean?

I don't wanna be a Barb.

Where'd you get that idea?

- Gwyn.

- I should discard you both immediately.

I wonder what the scum down at the plantation would make

of you!

- How have I betrayed you?

- I did not ask you to speak!

I had you both spied on.

I heard what you said about me behind my back.

But I'm going to be merciful.

You both have a lot of privileges.

Be sure you earn them in the future.

Now go.

I have to meet with Gwyn.

At least I can trust her.

- What do you got there?

- It's for Gwyn.

Do you think she'll like it?

She's still gonna be a Barb, right?

- What's inside?

- Nothing.

- That's all you're giving her?

An empty box?

(whimsical music)

- Flame!

You have to pull me out now.

I can't stand to be a Barb anymore!

- Better than being a Discard.

- They're gonna make me go through this dumb ceremony.

Probably have to howl at the moon

or eat a spider or something.

- Well, you're in luck, Gwyn.

I've decided today's the day.

I'm gonna round up Sky, and you're going to help me.

Once I have Sky, I'll round them all up.

Ants and Barbs.

- There's someone in the Barbs I care about.

His name's Dan.

He's my brother.

Will you spare him?

Make him a Proof?

For me?

- How will you signal to us when it's time to move?

- Kwarli's rigged up a mirror in the tree.

I'll shine it towards you.

Three flashes for go.

- Good.

- What about my brother?

- Very well.

Just make sure you bring me Sky.

- You won't catch any fish by staring at the water.

- Maybe I can stare them to death.

- What's wrong, Sky?

You know I don't really mind you not joining the tribe.

- It's not that.

Haven't you noticed, Zora?

Whatever I do, it causes trouble for everyone.

I'm telling you, I'm a jinx.

- Dan?

- Don't look so surprised.

I can still visit, can't I?

- After last night, I thought you Barbs might stay away

for good.

- Don't worry about Jag.

We're all still friends.

In fact, I came to invite you to our camp.

- We have enough food for the day, Dan.

Thanks, but we don't need your charity.

- I didn't mean that.

Gwyn's getting made a proper Barb.

And Sky too.

I asked Zora if some of you could see the ceremony.

She said yes.

It's a great honor.

- I'm sure it is.

- Why would we want to see something like that

when our own way of life is under threat

from Proofs, from machines, and yes from Barbs?

- Faygar, I'm sure Zora meant well.

- We try to make peace and what do they do?

Get everyone on their side.

And now they're even taking our leader.

- It wasn't like that.

- And they send Dan just to rub it in.

If Sky wanted to join a tribe, Dan,

his natural home would be here with the Ants like yours was

but you've forgotten that.

How we cared for you, how you depended on us,

haven't you?

- You know when you wake up,

and you can't remember your dream?

Well, that's what it feels like.

Like there's something inside me.

A voice calling to me.

- You're worried about the markings on the cave wall.

- Something to do with the Legion of the Moor Ants.

I know it.

And the machines.

Zora, I think I know why Faygar followed me around.

I think I might've seen into the zoo.

- He had me watched.

- And me.

- After all the things I did for him.

- He destroyed my rat!

- Forget your rat!

What about my hair?

- I don't understand.

Who was a spy?

And what did I say to betray Flame?

- It wasn't so much what you said.

It was your whole attitude.

- It was you!

- Get your paws off me!

Beast Boy!

You were spying on me too.

And you lied about the things I said.

Shadow, come back!

We need to plan our next move!

- Keep away from me!

- I'm surprised at you, Sky.

- Why?

- Spending all that time with the Ants

you've started to believe their dumb religion.

- There's some truth in it.

I know there is.

- It's just superstition!

Faygar's way of keeping everyone scared

so they'll do what she says.

I don't even think Zood existed.

But if he did and he had a descendant,

it can't be you.

- Why not?

- You're not bad, Sky.

- Yeah, I know.

But I have to find out the truth

about all those cave drawings.

- [Faygar] Sky.

Have you seen Dan?

- No, why?

- I shouted at him.

If you see him, will you tell him I'm sorry?

- Why did you do that?

- It's about you joining the Barbs.

It's none of my business what you do.

I just wish you'd told us first.

- I'm not joining the Barbs, Faygar.

Gwyn got it all wrong.

I've never joined any tribe, and I never will.

- I brought you something.

- What would I want with a rat?

- Prince was very special to you, wasn't he?

- He was my only friend.

- I could be your friend, Shadow.

- And betray me to Flame?

- Haven't you worked this out yet?

Flame's played us against each other.

- Why would he do that?

- Because he's cracked up.

He's losing it.

How should I know?

- Flame is good.

Next to him I am worthless.

- That's not true.

You were loyal to him.

We both were.

And how does he repay us?

By spying on us?

- You better stop this.

- Think.

We both need Flame.

Without Flame, we lose all our privileges.

We have to work together.

- You're talking mutiny.

- I'm talking survival.

Do you think Flame cares what happens to you?

You're about as important to him as your rat.

- The sun's getting low.

It's time for Gwyn's ceremony.

What's the matter with everyone?

- We just found out Sky's not becoming a Barb anymore.

- Dan, you all right?

- I didn't mean to upset anybody.

- Well, you shouldn't spread rumors when you don't know

what you're talking about.

- Leave him alone.

It wasn't Dan's fault.

It was me.

I got it wrong.

Maybe I shouldn't be a Barb after all.

- That's the first sensible thing I've heard.

- Any of the Ants coming to the ceremony, Dan?

Then lets get started.

And remember, we're welcoming someone to the tribe.

This is a time for joy, not sadness.

- Any sign of them hatching?

- What are we going to do, Sky?

- What we should've done all along, Sal, eat them.

Take care.

- Sky!

- Faygar!

The eggs!

Come and look!

- Not now, Sal.

Where's Sky?

- But the eggs, they're hatching!

- He's taken his pack.

Sal, think.

Which way did he go?

Omar, quickly, Sky's gone.

- A rope.

To secure yourself.

An arrow, to fly faster than your prey.

A bow, to protect your tribe.

We are one, and we welcome you as one of us.

- Are you really sorry for being a traitor?

- Yes, Flame. - Yes, Flame.

- Good.

We're going to round up Sky.

I'm only waiting for a signal from Gwyn.

Shadow, you can lead the raiding party.

- Thanks.

- Harmony, I'll deliver the prisoner into your care.

- Thank you.

- Then it's done.

It's good to have you back.

Both of you.

- Welcome to our tribe, Gwyn.

- Thank you.

- Well, here.

I'll show you how to braid it if you like.

- Really?

You shouldn't have.

I don't feel like a Barb at all.

- But you are.

You're one of us now.

Here.

- Don't worry.

It's not empty.

There's something inside.

It's okay.

It's dead now.

- You're too late, Omar.

We've already had the ceremony.

- That's not what I'm here for.

Sky's gone.

- Gone where?

- We think he went North.

Faygar went after him.

- What's this got to do with us?

- Well, he's your leader.

I thought you might wanna know.

- I already knew.

- Zora!

Why didn't you tell us?

- Sky does what he wants to do.

Kwarli, go with Omar.

- I could go.

I mean, I'd like to.

- No, Gwyn, stay.

Enjoy the party.

- I feel dizzy.

I have to lie down.

- It's going to be dark soon.

- What's keeping her?

All she has to do is trick him into the woods somehow!

Pretend to be chased by a wolf.

Something.

A child could do it.

- Flame, there!

- The signal.

Looking for me?

- Not really.

- We have you surrounded.

- [Soldier] Flame!

Look what I found.

- Faygar!

- I'm sorry, Sky.

I was trying to bring you back, but I--

- Silence!

- What do you know about that, Shadow?

The leader of the Ants will be joining us.

Sky, your time as a rebel leader is over.

You belong to me now.

- We'll see about that.

- They're so sweet.

- Yes, and they're going to give us lots of eggs.

And some of those will become chicks too.

There's still hope yet, Sal.

- Sky will be so pleased when he comes back.
