All language subtitles for Buck Rogers in the 25th Century S02E09 - The Satyr

Mother?

Are these grapes all right?

Young man, those grapes...

You are perfect, just like you.

I don't know what I'd
do without you, Delph.

There is just one thing.

Remember our agreement that
we weren't going to shout?

I forgot. Do you think he heard?

Probably not. It wasn't a very
loud shout, but just in case.

Maybe we should go in the house and
bar the door for a while, all right?

All right.

We'll make some rosemary tart or
something. I hear them. Go, run, run!

There isn't any!

You drank it all the last time!

Oh, yeah.

Please make him go away
and leave my mother alone.

In the year 1987, NASA launched the
last of America's deep space probes.

Aboard this compact starship, a lone
astronaut, Captain William Buck Rogers,

was to experience cosmic
forces beyond all comprehension.

In a freak mishap, his
life support systems were

frozen by temperatures beyond imagination.

Ranger 3 was blown out
of its planned trajectory

into an orbit 1,000 times more vast,

an orbit which was to return Buck
Rogers to Earth 500 years later.

¶¶

I still say, think it over,
Buck. If we check the asteroid belt,

you'll be alone here for ten full days.

Well, it may take me that long to find
any signs of life, if there are any.

What about it, Doctor?
Did your review of the

archives come up with
anything significant?

Only two points, as a
matter of fact, my dear boy.

Arcadis was thought to
be a planetary paradise,

often referred to as the
benign twin of Earth. Now,

the last attempt of colonization was
led by a major, Jason Samos. Samos?

Outstanding fellow he was, actually.
Founder of the Back to the Land movement,

all that sort of thing.
Established successful

colonies on half a dozen other worlds.

Except that he didn't succeed on Arcadis.

Well, you see, no one
knows that for certain.

For ten years he sent back growing
reports from Arcadis, then about six years ago,

it must have been, all communications.

From that planet ceased. I can't
remember the precise date of the last message.

8.42 a.m., Greenwich Mean Time.

July 17, 2485.

Oh, mind your own business. Drives
you mad, that fellow, doesn't he?

Makes you feel like a fool all the time.

Are you certain you don't want me
to go with you, Buck? Yes, Hawk.

You and Wilma are going to be
busy enough completing that

asteroid sweep in ten days
without worrying about me.

Besides, maybe when I
get back from Arcadis,

I'll have some information
about what happened to Major Samos.

Oh, I do hope so. I do hope so. I look
forward to that. I will indeed, Buck.

Bye-bye.

See you later, Doctor.

I don't know why. He just asked me if
I'd like to go down to Arcadis with him,

and I said I would, and it's all set.

Your shellcraft is all set to go, Buck.
Tweaky tells me you're taking him with you.

That's right.

I would have been glad to take you along,
Wilma, but this planet has three moons.

Meaning?

Well, I know how you
are in moonlight, and...

Well, I've only got ten
days to complete this mission.

You're gonna regret that remark, Buck.

Are you really different in the moonlight?

No, sweetie.

But I will be from now on.

I hope you two will be
very happy together.

On this site, April
25th, in the year 2475,

Major Jason Samos established the earth
colony of New Corinth, numbering 116 souls.

May God bless this venture.

That gives you a funny
feeling, doesn't it, Twee?

Sure does, Buck. It's sad, very sad.

All the hopes, all the dreams.

They're just to this.

What's that? Is that the wind?

I think there's a possibility of...

Look out, Buck! Get him, Buck, get him!

You're hurt.

I'll live.

What kind of an animal was that,
anyway? Could be a Z-Wolf, Buck.

They're supposed to be native to Arcadis.

Maybe you better clue me in to...

Mister, what are the kinds of
specimens I'm gonna run into on this planet?

That's easy.

Human male, age approximately nine years.

Where?

Right behind you at the moment.

Well, who are you?

Del, sir.

Del Samos.

I saw what you did to the
Z-Wolf, and it was wonderful.

Thank you, thank you.

Samos, huh?

You by any chance related to Major
Jason Samos, who founded this colony?

Yes, sir. He was my father.

He's dead now.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
My name's Captain Buck Rogers,

and this is my friend
Tweaky. Pleased to meet you.

You're bleeding.

Oh, that's all right.

Tell me something. Are there
any other people on this planet?

No, just my mother and me.

No other settlers, huh?

No, Mother says they all
left years ago. You're

not going to leave right away, are you?

No, I hadn't intended to.

Then please come to our house. My
mother can fix your arm for you,

and she's a very good cook,
and we've got plenty of room.

All right, all right,
you made yourself a deal.

Besides, I'd like to meet
your mother and talk to her.

And I could use a home-cooked meal, too.

Twiggy?

Yes, Buck?

Stay here and keep an eye on
the ship, all right? OK, Buck.

Lead on, Delph.

Did you really come from a starship?

That's right. It's called the Searcher.

We're looking for the
lost tribes of Earth.

Lost tribes?

Your mother must have told you
that right after the Holocaust,

people left the Earth to
colonize other planets. Well,

a couple of hundred years ago, the Earth
lost contact with those early colonists.

Now we're trying to find out what
happened to them, reestablish contact,

hoping that maybe,
well... Oh, there's my mother.

Her name is Syra. Come on.

That's Captain Buck Rogers.
He's from the Starship Searcher.

Happy to meet you, ma'am.

Hello.

Delph, you promised if I let you go,
you'd stay hidden till the spaceship left.

I was hiding, Mother, but
Captain Rogers was hurt.

It was a sea wolf, Mother.

That arm should be tended to. There
are strange viruses here on this planet.

Please come to the house.
Delph, you stay and finish up here.

I'm sorry if I haven't been
very hospitable, Captain.

It's just it's better
if you don't stay here.

You can see there's very little
room, and we're barely managing.

Oh, you're welcome to share my supplies.

And if you'd like, you can leave
with me when the searcher comes back.

Well, thank you.

But this is our home.

Suit yourself.

Feels better already.

It's a wild herb. It has
unusually fast healing properties.

From the looks of it, you... Don't.

I'm sorry. I'm afraid I don't
react very well to being touched.

Well, that was absolutely fantastic.

Thank you.

Bread sprouts and corn gourds
with roseberries baked on top.

We find them in the woods.

Well, it's nice to see
the land provides for you.

When my father scouted this planet,

he made sure that everything
would be here for everybody.

You know what, Captain Rogers? I
still have my father's logbook.

I'll get it and show you.

He sleeps with it under his pillow.

He dreams someday of being able to
do everything his father's done.

I never met Major Samos, but from
everything I've heard about him, I wish I had.

Here it is. It shows
all the places he's been.

I heard that sound when we first landed.

What is it?

It's nothing.

It's the wind.

You all right, Duff?

Yes, sir. I'm all right. Now.

I've never even been in a
spaceship before, let alone be flying it.

So far, you're doing a great job. One
of these days, you'll be a fine pilot.

You better let me take over right
now. We're almost over your house.

Aye, aye, Captain.

Here we go, huh?

I'm glad you had a good time.

Mother! Mother! You never
guessed what I just did.

Mother! Mother!

I flew the shuttle. I really flew
it. Buck let me handle the controls.

And he's teaching me about flying, And
guidance and propulsion systems, and... Whoa!

You mustn't pester the
captain too much now, huh?

Oh, it's no trouble, ma'am.

He's really a fine boy.

He and Tweaky are getting
along really well. Tweaky?

Tweaky's my robot. I
left him on board the ship.

He's awful cute, Mother, and he's
little, not even as big as I am.

I'm going to help him
and Buck with the names

of all the plants and animals around here.

Oh, he's already
started. Got some right here.

That's nice.

You better go wash up for supper now.

Here, this is amber fire,
and, uh... Uh, amber leaves.

Oh.

Amber leaf.

Uh, then this must be devil's fire.

Right.

Okay.

And this must be, um... Flute grass.

Because you can play them like a flute.

Like this.

I told you never to do that.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I forgot. It's all
right, Deb. It's all right.

What is it, Twiggy?

There's something
coming, Buck. It's out there

at the edge of the woods. Another Z-Wolf?

I can't tell.

Look, we've been hit.
Controls have been changed.

So where does this man, if you
can call him that, come from?

He lives in the woods.

Nothing that goes on
around here escapes him.

Keeps bothering us.

Taking things from us.

Calls himself Pangor. But
I don't know what that is.

It's probably another name for satyr.

Half goat, half man. I
never thought I'd see

one outside of statues
of ancient mythology.

Wish I was big enough to fight him.

I won't have more fighting. Captain
Rogers has already been injured once.

I won't have him hurt again.

Captain, that was one reason I
wanted you to leave Arcadis right away.

I still do.

That might be a trifle
difficult at the moment,

with half my ship's controls and
all of his communications out.

I wasn't planning on taking off and
leaving you two behind here anyway.

Even if I insisted?

Why should you insist?

You're obviously in trouble here
and have been for quite a while.

Delph, would you do me a favor?

Give my toolbox for me. It's
right outside the door of the ship.

Sure.

How am I getting the
whole story here, am I?

It's true.

He's been troubling us a long time.

What is he, some kind of mutant?

Mutant?

I see one of a kind, or
are there others like him?

There are a few others.

But we hardly ever see them here.

They seem to stake out their
own territory and stay there.

And I think they're afraid of Pangor.

I can't say that I blame them.

Facts quite a
thunderbolt in that whip of his.

Is that what frightened
the other colonists away?

We were all terrified.

Six years ago, everybody voted to
leave and settle on some other planet.

Their ship didn't make it.

What stopped you from going with him?

My husband.

He had this dream right up to the end.

He could somehow turn this
place into a garden of Eden.

But after he died, you must have
had plenty of chances to leave here.

Then I couldn't.

He's out there.

Seder and his Farallon.

Always watching this house.

Let him watch.

All he wants to. Make a
Twinkie fixed and a scowl refitted.

We're getting out of here, all of us.

No.

This is my husband's
home. This is where I stay.

Maybe you can take Delph.

I couldn't bear parting with
him before when he was so little.

Maybe now it's getting to be time.

Mother, I'm not going
anywhere without you. I'm not.

Something to think about.

I thought I'd lost my little compadre.

Easy, Buck, that tickles.

Welcome back, Twiki.

He's fixed.

Not quite, but he's on his way.

Davis, try to raise Captain
Rogers again. It is useless.

Arcadis passed into
perihelion 17 minutes ago,

meaning it is at its
closest approach to the sun.

I know what perihelion
means, you rust bucket.

What's that got to do with our being
unable to speak to Captain Rogers?

Really, Admiral, when
Arcadis is in perihelion,

it is in a state of total eclipse
relative to our present position.

No communication will be
possible for another 12 hours.

Why didn't you tell me
that 17 minutes ago?

You didn't ask.

Admiral, are we going to abort the rest of

the asteroid sweep?
Well, I'm of two minds.

If we abort, and there's nothing
wrong, we're going to look like idiots.

I'd put my trust in Buck, Admiral.

There's not much he can't handle.

All right.

You and Hawk carry on till further notice.

I suppose we can afford to wait until
that planet comes out of Perihelion.

Please excuse me.

Moon wine has to be made
quickly when the grapes are ready.

Tell me the truth, Syra.

It's all for him, isn't it?

For Pangor.

If he's supplied with
enough, he's content.

And he goes off and he leaves
me alone for a little while.

I have to, or he might hurt Del.

So you appease him?

Come on, tell me something.

Why do you still refuse to leave?

Because I can't.

Would you please just
let me finish my work?

Hi, Delph.

Hi, Tweaky.

It must be so nice, Captain Roger, to fly
all over the universe and see everything.

Well, this guy has points, Delph.

Like being free, isn't it? Things
ahead of you you don't know about.

There's a whole lot of truth to that.

Pangor!

Leave the woman alone
or I'll kill you! No!

You'll be killed!

I don't think so, Pangor.

Look!

Throw gun away! Go!

For this one will feel
Pandora's whip! Grow gone now!

Get in the house,
quick! Sire, bolt the door!

Pangor the coward.

Fights women and children.

Come on. Now we see!

Come on, Pangor. You're
nothing without your whip.

Come on. Come get me.

Pangor, the coward!

Close. Yes, close.
Pangor's whip will sniff you out.

¶¶

Is it true? He's really drowned?

It sure looked that way.

Wow.

I knew you could do it.

I knew from the first time you beat the
Z-Wolf, you'd be the one to beat Pangor.

That's why I wanted you to stay with us.

We're free of him, Mother.
Really and truly free. Yes.

Yes.

Free.

Aren't you happy, Mother?

I'm thankful Captain Rogers
came through it all right.

Delph, go and get some
fresh water from the well.

Yes, Mother.

He asked if you were happy,
and you said you were thankful.

There's a difference.

I'm thankful we're free of him.

I'm never happy over the death of anyone.

Yes, but I don't think you
would mourn for everyone.

And yet you mourn for this Pangor. Why?

Part of me is relieved he's
dead, more than I can tell.

Another part of me can't
help grieving for him.

You grieve for the satyr who
brutalized you? Do you mind telling me why?

Because once upon a time, he
was something very different.

Once he was a man, a good man, whose
name was not Pangor, but Major Jason Samus.

Your husband?

Now you know why I could never
bring myself to leave this place.

There's no reason to
hide anything anymore.

You see, something here turned men
into satyrs, never women or children,

and only some of the men.

We never found out what caused it.

Our own family stayed on here
after all the others voted to leave.

My husband was so
obsessed with the pioneer dream.

And then time came.

When he was affected, too,
over the space of hours,

I watched him change into that
half-animal thing you had to kill today, Captain.

Changed from the
civilized man This wonderful,

dedicated human being I was married to.

And of course I worry about Delph.

I'm afraid it could happen to him,
too, when he becomes a man. I'm sorry.

I'm terribly sorry, Sarah.

Delph never knew. He won't find
out from you, will he, Captain?

How could I tell him?

What's the matter?

Your eyes.

Leave this place, Buck.

Leave it and go back
to your ship for help.

We're all gonna get out of here.

Mother, what's the matter?
Where's Captain Rogers going?

This is searcher calling
Hawk Ship and Colonel Deering.

Searcher to Hawk and
Colonel Deering, come in, please.

Hawk here. I am aborting this mission.

We have been trying for almost 30
minutes to reach Buck with no success.

I'm turning searcher to a median
intercept course. Return as soon as possible.

On my way, Admiral.

Coming home.

Any luck yet, Twinkie?

No, ma'am.

Still a few things left to fix
up, but we're getting there.

What's happening?

Was Buck working out here all night?

Well, please tell me what's the matter.

Delph, try to understand.

Buck, he's getting very sick.

Captain Rogers, my mother said you...

No.

Please, don't be frightened of me.

Buck, somebody's coming.

Hang our guard! Now we
take the woman and hide!

That settles it.

Can't wait any longer. Twiggy,
deploy shield and get ready to lift off.

Try to hold the searchers, of
course. Hope to meet them coming back.

You two, get on board that ship now.

Wait, my father's logbook.

I've got to get that, too.

Jump, no!

Yeah!

We have the boy! Come join us! Come
taste our whip, brother! We wait for you!

Why should I join you?

I had a woman, and wine.

Woman is mine.

So is the wine, if you want the wine.

What'll they do to Delph?

Nothing.

They know they have a bargaining
point as long as they hold Delph.

They want what Bangalore
had, his wine and his woman.

I planted the idea in their
heads about the wine being here.

I'll see that they get a reception.

What are you going to do?

I have enough gelonite to blow this
place sky high. We have a lot of work to do.

How much longer do you think
it'll be before they come?

Not long.

You really believe this can work, Captain?

If they think they're safe,
they'll come for the wine.

Forget about the boy. All right, it's
all set. We'll put the detonator out here.

I'll string this wire out, and
once they're inside drinking,

one touch on this
detonator, and they're gone.

They're fighting among
themselves for some reason.

They're not shippin' away from me.

I'll bring Delph back if I can.

Dying, Sarah.

Something happened in that lake.

And the pain was starting to remember.

Sorry, Sire.

I never meant to hurt you.

It's all right, Jason.

It's all right.

I've always loved you, Sire.

I know.

I don't know.

Take the boy.

Where's Cyrus? He's not inside. She's in
the house, Buck. I heard voices inside.

Get him on board that ship and keep
that force field deployed at full power.

It's all right.

It's Jason again.

He remembers.

I just came on a shuttle.

What's happened, Twiggy?

Protective force field starting to give
way. We gotta get them away from this stuff.

He is tricking you.

I have the woman inside.
The woman and the wine.

What do you think, Wright?

He still has a hundred years
of medical archives to review.

Infecting agent has been isolated.

Arbor virus type AB variant
246 of caprid encephalitis.

This creates the satyr effect.

Inevitably, 246 is a hitchhiker virus,
attaching itself to the male Y chromosome,

thus causing caprid symptoms.

But is the disease reversible?

In early stages, affirmative.

I recommend
anti-somotherapy treatment 7-4-4-8-4.

12,000 units hourly in IV
solution for the next 72 hours.

I thought you would want this.

Back to normal. I was afraid
I'd been changed for good.

Wilma stayed with you
while you were recovering.

It seems you had a
most unusual experience.

That's not the half of it.

Somebody has been waiting to say goodbye.

The searcher's orbiting the planet Orion.

We're just about ready to
leave for our new home.

Well, Orion's well colonized.

You and Delph should be very happy there.

I wish you were coming
with us, Captain Rogers.

Well, I have to go where
the searcher goes, Delph.

Admiral Asimov enrolled him
in the Orion Cadet Academy.

That's the best there is.

I know. My father graduated from there.

Well, you grow to be just
like your father, all right?

Good pilot, explorer.

Passengers for Orion One,
please report to launch bay.

It's never been easy
for me to say goodbye.

Hasn't been easy for me either.

Especially with you two.

We won't forget you, Buck.

Either of us.

Nor are you.

Hogs said you sat with me every night.

Not a bad way to get you alone, is it?

Oh, yeah, but your
methods are a little extreme.

Well, you wouldn't believe
what I went through on Arcadis.

Running around with horns on
my head like some creature

out of Greek mythology. It was incredible.

Incredible?

Oh, I don't know about that.

Sounds to me like your true
nature was finally showing through.

I mean, there are three
moons on Arcadis, aren't there?

And we all know how you
are in the moonlight?
