Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990–1996): Season 2, Episode 10 - An Inside Job - full transcript
Our world is in peril.
Gaia, the spirit of the Earth,
can no longer stand
the terrible destruction
plaguing our planet.
She sends five magic rings
to five special young people --
Kwame from Africa,
with the power of Earth.
[ Sirens wailing ]
From North America -- Wheeler,
with the power of fire.
**
From the Soviet Union -- Linka,
with the power of wind.
From Asia -- Gi,
with the power of water.
**
And from South America --
Ma-Ti, with the power of heart.
When the five powers combine,
they summon
Earth's greatest champion --
Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
Captain Planet:
The power is yours!
Gi: And now back to
"Captain Planet".
[ Water rushing ]
[ Birds chirping ]
Sludge:
Ah, it's nice to get away
from that rat race in the city
and pollute
the wilderness.
[ Laughs ]
Who are you,
and what do you want?
I'm from the E.D.A.,
and --
Not another one.
Don't you environmental
agency people
have anything better to do
than to hassle me?
You've been warned before,
Mr. Sludge.
Now your illegal dumping days
are over.
Uh-oh.
Illegal dumping?
Moi?
I've been analyzing
water samples
taken from the river
near your pumping station.
Look at these photos.
Ah, pictures
of the family?
No. Microscopic
camera enlargements
of parasites
and bacteria
from untreated sewage
you are dumping in this river!
Don't bother to deny it.
We're way ahead of you.
Uh, Lady,
if I were you,
I'd worry about
what's behind you.
This is a court order shutting
the P.U. pumping station down.
[ Laughs ]
[ Click,
mechanical whirring ]
Sorry. We can't read
that order.
Hey! What are you doing?
The print's too small.
[ Laughs ]
Put me down!
Yech! Don't you ever
wash your hands?
[ Laughs ]
I got to admit, doc,
that dimension distorter
of yours
sure reduces
my legal problems.
They never learn,
do they, MAL, baby?
They keep coming,
and we keep shrinking them.
And our little collection
keeps growing.
[ Both laugh ]
Wheeler: Gaia said Sly Sludge
is somewhere in these woods.
Let's start looking.
Have patience, Wheeler.
We have a lot of ground
to cover.
That is why
we need a base camp.
We could be
searching here for days.
No. [ Grunts ]
We could be here for days
just putting up these tents.
Can I be
of some assistance?
I do not need your help.
I have everything
under control.
Okay.
Aah!
I'll get some water
to boil for drinking.
Wheeler, don't drink river water
without purifying it.
It could have
diseases in it.
Are you kidding, Gi?
This is pure mountain water.
[ Monkey chitters ]
What is it, Suchi?
Did you see something?
[ Chittering continues ]
Sly Sludge. Where?
[ Monkey chitters ]
Let's go, Planeteers.
**
What a smell!
Now I know how Suchi
found this place so fast.
Raw sewage is flowing
right into the river.
Pure mountain water,
huh?
I'll just boil this
when we get back.
Oh, no. It's those
planet punks again.
I'm going to flush those
eco-neatniks once and for all.
[ Alarm blaring ]
[ Sniffing ]
Ah, the sweet smell
of excess.
We need a plumber,
and fast!
I know one who's
always on call.
Let our powers combine.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
Captain Planet:
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
[ Grunts ]
Time for some good old
rock 'n' roll.
Now, that's what I call
a great plumbing job.
Hey, you haven't even
seen the bill.
Stand still,
you big blue do-gooder.
I wish you'd let me try,
doctor.
Your arm
is too short, MAL.
We can't stop
Captain Planet.
You're on your own,
Blight.
You traitor!
Typical human cowardice.
I'd never desert you,
MAL, baby.
I got him!
Out of my way!
He's trying to steal the
eco-sub, Captain Planet!
Here's another vine [fine] mess
you've gotten yourself into,
Sludge.
Huh? Hey! Wait!
I was just going to
take it for a test-drive.
[ Radar beeping ]
That's it.
Hold still.
Kwame:
Oh, no, you don't.
It is all over,
Dr. Blight.
Oh, I'm out of here!
Stop where you are,
Dr. Blight!
Hmm! She'd never
desert me?
"Never" took
about one minute.
P.U.! I've had about all I can
inhale for one mission.
Planeteers, why don't you turn
this trash into something good,
like the authorities?
The power is yours!
Yeah! We got him on
reckless polluting
and grand theft sub.
Cheer up, Sludge.
You have plenty of time to
read up waste water treatment
in jail.
That's so funny
I forgot to laugh.
Wait a minute.
Where's Kwame?
I'll hide here.
He'll take this fake rock
for granite.
[ Laughs ]
Where did she go?
**
I hope you didn't think
I ran out on you, MAL, baby.
The thought never
entered my data bank.
Now for the fun part.
I'm going to make a little
change in their plans.
Kwame must be dealing
with Dr. Blight.
We'd better help him.
Whoa! Bozhe moi!
Wheeler:
What's happening?
Oh, no.
She can't.
She wouldn't.
Ma-Ti: We are caught
in some kind of ray.
How cute.
Micro Planeteers.
She shrunk us!
Wheeler: Either that,
or it's the attack
of the amazing colossal
Dr. Blight.
[ Laughs ]
[ All screaming ]
Well,
what have we here?
Oh, I'm getting an idea
that's nasty,
even for me!
I have lost her.
I must get back
to the others.
Hey, doc.
Don't forget I'm in here.
I'm on your side,
remember?
Oh, I remember, Sludge.
I remember.
What are you doing
to me?
I'm being as loyal to you, dear,
as you were to me.
Ooh, how delicious.
I always thought
Sludge needed to reduce.
Delicious
is the word, MAL.
Rig for crash!
[ All scream ]
I'll put all of you
in the one place
your Planeteer pal
will never find you --
inside him!
Mm.
My mouth is as dry
as the Sahara.
Where did the eco-sub go?
Kwame has come
to save us!
No, he hasn't!
He's come to drink us.
Kwame, no!
Wheeler: Stop!
[ All scream ]
Earth!
Let me go, eco-creep, or you'll
never see your friends again.
And why is that?
Because
you just drank them!
[ Laughs ]
No!
It is not possible!
[ All screaming ]
Ma-Ti: Do not lose heart.
The Planeteers will return.
Linka: And now,
back to "Captain Planet".
**
Kwame's stomach acids are taking
the paint off the eco-sub.
We have to get out of here
before he really gets hungry.
Wheeler,
head for his intestine.
[ All screaming ]
You maniac!
Bring back my friends!
Let me out of here,
and we'll talk.
I do not trust you,
Dr. Blight.
My s-stomach hurts,
and the room
is spinning.
I feel terrible.
Ooh!
[ Groaning ]
Oh, this is too perfect.
There must have been polluted
river water in that canteen.
Parasites are already attacking
your intestines.
Linka: If my calculations
are correct,
we are now
in Kwame's intestine.
Let us try
the forward spotlight.
Gi: Oh, no!
Waterborne parasites!
They came from
the polluted water.
Wheeler: Maybe you should have
left the lights off, Ma-Ti.
Bozhe moi!
They are attacking
the eco-sub!
Aah!
They're gonna open us
like a can of sardines.
Get me out of here,
you stupid eco-geeks.
Do not call us stupid.
You are the one
who polluted the water.
I will try to reach Kwame.
Heart!
Oh!
MAL, bail me out
of this prison.
Your arm is
still too short.
And whose fault
is that, doctor?
You installed it.
Do something, improvise,
or I'll shrink you
into a pocket calculator!
All right. All right.
Don't go away.
I'll be right back.
I cannot get through
to Kwame.
Then our only way
out of here
is to cure Kwame
of these parasites.
I will go.
My ring can summon
Kwame's antibodies
to battle these invaders.
Hang on.
I'm going with you.
If it wasn't for me,
Kwame wouldn't have
drunk polluted water.
Sludge: I got to get out of this
polluted Planeteer.
Be careful, Ma-Ti.
And you, too, Wheeler.
Hey, does this mean
you care?
Heart!
Calling all antibodies.
**
Diseases
are very hard to cure.
Most of them the body
can't fight off by itself.
Lucky for Kwame he has friends
who are real insiders.
Oh.
Well, come on,
you pair of parasites.
This intestine ain't big enough
for the three of us.
Fire!
Ma-Ti: That did it!
Ooh!
[ Stomach grumbling ]
My stomach feels like
it is on fire.
Right. Now,
let's just review.
I push down
this end of the lever,
which lights the match
for the blowtorch
and at the same time
raises the cheese,
which makes the lab rat run,
which turns on --
This isn't a science fair, MAL.
Just do it!
For a doctor, you have
very little patience.
It's those little patients
of mine I'm worried about.
Hurry!
**
Aah!
Can't you
do anything right?
Oh, well. Back to
the old drawing board.
Wheeler: Whoa! Talk about
bouncing off walls.
Gi: We should be entering
Kwame's liver.
This is where the parasites will
probably lay their eggs here.
You can say that again.
Look at them!
How do you like
your handiwork, Sly?
Yech!
People all over the world
suffer diseases like this
from water pollution.
We must stop
these eggs from hatching,
or else Kwame will be
permanently infected.
More worms?
I can't take it anymore!
I got to get out of here!
Help!
Help!
Aah!
[ Coughs ]
Thanks.
I didn't need that.
I can help you.
After all, 2/3 of the human body
is...
water!
My turn! Fire!
I will call in
the cleanup committee
and see that these
get recycled.
Heart!
Way to go,
Planeteers!
[ Monkey chitters ]
You were supposed to make
a right turn at the bile duct.
Do you have any idea
where you are going?
No. But when we get to
the next gas station,
you can ask
directions.
If we can reach
Kwame's brain,
maybe my ring will be close
enough to communicate with him.
It's worth a shot.
[ Groaning ]
Dr. Blight:
Take your time, MAL.
It looks like the parasites
are attacking
that planet brat's brain.
Did you hear that?
Oh! I don't think I'll hear
anything else for a week.
I told you to stay
in the main artery,
but nyet,
you had to take shortcut.
Stop arguing.
We're in Kwame's ear.
So his brain
is to the left.
Ma-Ti:
What are those lights?
Kwame's thoughts.
Let us hope he does not
have a brainstorm
while we are in here.
Gi: Oh, no. The parasites
are in here, too.
We must stop them now.
Kwame's life
depends on us.
I am going with you.
Your wind power
won't be much help.
Kwame's no airhead.
It is better than staying behind
and baby-sitting Sludge.
Hey, go on.
Have fun.
Don't worry about me.
[ Electricity zapping ]
Gi: They're coming our way!
Water!
[ Parasite groans ]
Fire!
[ Parasite groans ]
Heart!
Wheeler, look out!
You guys don't know
when to quit, do you?
Fire!
Hmm.
I am feeling better.
Hold it
right there, MAL.
[ Electricity crackling ]
Oh, no. Oh! Oh!
My circuits are shorting.
[ Deep voice ] My circuits
are shorting!
My circuits are shor--
Oh!
I have short-circuited
your escape plan, Blight.
Maybe.
But remember
your tiny friends
because you'll never be able
to get them out of your mind!
[ Laughs ]
Ahh!
[ Grunting ]
Aha. That does it.
I ain't gonna be bait
for no worm.
So long,
planet suckers!
[ Laughs ]
[ Chittering ]
Here. Stay out of my hair,
you little ape.
[ Screeching ]
Hey, Sludge! Come back,
you ponytailed parasite!
[ Electricity crackling ]
Linka: We will never
catch him.
Stealing our sub --
he has got a nerve!
Not only that,
but he's in one --
the vagus nerve,
which leads right to the lungs.
The lungs?
That gives me an idea.
We must get
to Kwame's nose.
How is getting into
Kwame's nose
going to help us get Sludge
out of his lungs?
I have a plan,
and it is nothing
to sneeze at.
Wind!
Mm. What is going on?
Ah...ah...ah...
[ Sneezes ]
Hey! What's going on?!
Ah...ah...choo!
Wind!
Heart!
Ma-Ti?
Is that you?
I'll tell him how to operate
the dimension distorter
if he'll make me
normal size again.
Ma-Ti:
And lastly, Sludge says
push the button
and raise the lever.
This had better
be right, Sludge.
Once a traitor,
always a traitor.
[ Button beeps ]
Whoa!
Well done, Kwame!
[ Parasite hissing ]
Oh, no!
We had a stowaway!
Let our powers combine.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
Captain Planet:
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
That looks like one
powerful parasite.
I better put it under wraps.
Whoa! Ooh!
[ Grunts ]
[ Parasite groans ]
Hey! You're putting
a lot of pressure on me.
I think I need to chill out.
[ Parasite hisses ]
Oh, no, you don't.
Ha!
You're not gonna
worm your way out of this.
Now to cut you
down to size.
Out of my sight,
parasite.
[ Clears throat ] Before you
deactivate that machine,
we're eager
to get growing.
Uh, you see, Sly,
your untreated sewage
is being treated in this pond
to become fertilizer.
The irony is,
we call it sludge.
This stuff's good
for the environment,
and they call it sludge?
Eh, I feel this tall.
I could arrange that.
Ugh!
[ Laughter ]
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
People upstream dump wastes
into rivers and lakes
without thinking
about the people downstream.
Just because water looks clear
doesn't mean it's safe to drink.
Water can contain all sorts
of microscopic organisms.
Wheeler: Once inside you,
they can make you really sick.
So never dump your waste
into lakes or rivers.
And if you have any doubts about
drinking water, boil it first.
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
What's the problem,
Planeteers?
It's acid rain, Cap.
Those factories burning coal
and polluting the air
are a real menace.
Ma-Ti:
When the air pollution mixes
with the clouds and then rains,
it can destroy forests.
Gi: As well as pollute
the drinking water
and kill fish
and other wildlife.
Write a letter
to your congressperson
to support our
environmental laws.
The power is yours!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
* Captain Planet
* He's our hero
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* He's our powers magnified
* And he's fighting
on the planet's side *
* Captain Planet
* He's our hero
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* Gonna help him put asunder
* Bad guys who like
to loot and plunder *
You'll pay for this,
Captain Planet!
* We're the Planeteers,
you can be one, too *
* 'Cause saving our planet
is the thing to do *
* Looting and polluting
is not the way *
* Hear what Captain Planet
has to say *
The power is yours!

Gi: We should be entering
Kwame's liver.
This is where the parasites will
probably lay their eggs here.
You can say that again.
Look at them!
How do you like
your handiwork, Sly?
Yech!
People all over the world
suffer diseases like this
from water pollution.
We must stop
these eggs from hatching,
or else Kwame will be
permanently infected.
More worms?
I can't take it anymore!
I got to get out of here!
Help!
Help!
Aah!
[ Coughs ]
Thanks.
I didn't need that.
I can help you.
After all, 2/3 of the human body
is...
water!
My turn! Fire!
I will call in
the cleanup committee
and see that these
get recycled.
Heart!
Way to go,
Planeteers!
[ Monkey chitters ]
You were supposed to make
a right turn at the bile duct.
Do you have any idea
where you are going?
No. But when we get to
the next gas station,
you can ask
directions.
If we can reach
Kwame's brain,
maybe my ring will be close
enough to communicate with him.
It's worth a shot.
[ Groaning ]
Dr. Blight:
Take your time, MAL.
It looks like the parasites
are attacking
that planet brat's brain.
Did you hear that?
Oh! I don't think I'll hear
anything else for a week.
I told you to stay
in the main artery,
but nyet,
you had to take shortcut.
Stop arguing.
We're in Kwame's ear.
So his brain
is to the left.
Ma-Ti:
What are those lights?
Kwame's thoughts.
Let us hope he does not
have a brainstorm
while we are in here.
Gi: Oh, no. The parasites
are in here, too.
We must stop them now.
Kwame's life
depends on us.
I am going with you.
Your wind power
won't be much help.
Kwame's no airhead.
It is better than staying behind
and baby-sitting Sludge.
Hey, go on.
Have fun.
Don't worry about me.
[ Electricity zapping ]
Gi: They're coming our way!
Water!
[ Parasite groans ]
Fire!
[ Parasite groans ]
Heart!
Wheeler, look out!
You guys don't know
when to quit, do you?
Fire!
Hmm.
I am feeling better.
Hold it
right there, MAL.
[ Electricity crackling ]
Oh, no. Oh! Oh!
My circuits are shorting.
[ Deep voice ] My circuits
are shorting!
My circuits are shor--
Oh!
I have short-circuited
your escape plan, Blight.
Maybe.
But remember
your tiny friends
because you'll never be able
to get them out of your mind!
[ Laughs ]
Ahh!
[ Grunting ]
Aha. That does it.
I ain't gonna be bait
for no worm.
So long,
planet suckers!
[ Laughs ]
[ Chittering ]
Here. Stay out of my hair,
you little ape.
[ Screeching ]
Hey, Sludge! Come back,
you ponytailed parasite!
[ Electricity crackling ]
Linka: We will never
catch him.
Stealing our sub --
he has got a nerve!
Not only that,
but he's in one --
the vagus nerve,
which leads right to the lungs.
The lungs?
That gives me an idea.
We must get
to Kwame's nose.
How is getting into
Kwame's nose
going to help us get Sludge
out of his lungs?
I have a plan,
and it is nothing
to sneeze at.
Wind!
Mm. What is going on?
Ah...ah...ah...
[ Sneezes ]
Hey! What's going on?!
Ah...ah...choo!
Wind!
Heart!
Ma-Ti?
Is that you?
I'll tell him how to operate
the dimension distorter
if he'll make me
normal size again.
Ma-Ti:
And lastly, Sludge says
push the button
and raise the lever.
This had better
be right, Sludge.
Once a traitor,
always a traitor.
[ Button beeps ]
Whoa!
Well done, Kwame!
[ Parasite hissing ]
Oh, no!
We had a stowaway!
Let our powers combine.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
Captain Planet:
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
That looks like one
powerful parasite.
I better put it under wraps.
Whoa! Ooh!
[ Grunts ]
[ Parasite groans ]
Hey! You're putting
a lot of pressure on me.
I think I need to chill out.
[ Parasite hisses ]
Oh, no, you don't.
Ha!
You're not gonna
worm your way out of this.
Now to cut you
down to size.
Out of my sight,
parasite.
[ Clears throat ] Before you
deactivate that machine,
we're eager
to get growing.
Uh, you see, Sly,
your untreated sewage
is being treated in this pond
to become fertilizer.
The irony is,
we call it sludge.
This stuff's good
for the environment,
and they call it sludge?
Eh, I feel this tall.
I could arrange that.
Ugh!
[ Laughter ]
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
People upstream dump wastes
into rivers and lakes
without thinking
about the people downstream.
Just because water looks clear
doesn't mean it's safe to drink.
Water can contain all sorts
of microscopic organisms.
Wheeler: Once inside you,
they can make you really sick.
So never dump your waste
into lakes or rivers.
And if you have any doubts about
drinking water, boil it first.
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
What's the problem,
Planeteers?
It's acid rain, Cap.
Those factories burning coal
and polluting the air
are a real menace.
Ma-Ti:
When the air pollution mixes
with the clouds and then rains,
it can destroy forests.
Gi: As well as pollute
the drinking water
and kill fish
and other wildlife.
Write a letter
to your congressperson
to support our
environmental laws.
The power is yours!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
* Captain Planet
* He's our hero
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* He's our powers magnified
* And he's fighting
on the planet's side *
* Captain Planet
* He's our hero
* Gonna take pollution
down to zero *
* Gonna help him put asunder
* Bad guys who like
to loot and plunder *
You'll pay for this,
Captain Planet!
* We're the Planeteers,
you can be one, too *
* 'Cause saving our planet
is the thing to do *
* Looting and polluting
is not the way *
* Hear what Captain Planet
has to say *
The power is yours!
