Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990–1996): Season 2, Episode 15 - The Blue Car Line - full transcript
An Australian town has an extreme amount of air-pollution, despite its excellent subway system, the Blue Car Line. The Planeteers go to investigate and meet a local journalist, Sam, who is also trying to figure out why nobody is riding the metro. There have been claims of disappearances, though no missing-person reports, while some cars vanish and the ones that operate see appearances by what look like phantoms and go for crazy roller-coaster rides on hidden tracks. Kwame and Wheeler sneak back to walk through the tunnels, and discover that Looten Plunder has monopolized most transportation-services in town except the Blue Car Line, which he wants to see shut down so he can build an expensive highway in its place. But they discover this because they are captured, and the other Planeteers and Sam have to try to free them...and keep Plunder from preventing anyone from hearing the story so he can go on with his construction that will cause even more damage.
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".
**
Phew!
Wheeler,
how about a snack?
I brought you peanuts.
Hey,
thanks, Ma-Ti.
[ Laughs ]
Aah!
[ Laughing ]
Lame, Ma-Ti!
Extremely lame.
If you're going to play
practical jokes, pal,
forget this
prehistoric stuff.
You got to get
real creative.
Now, this is the top-of-the-line
practical joke --
inventive, fun,
and nobody gets hurt.
But I do not
understand.
Why would --
[ Clears throat ]
Let's review.
When this coconut
is pushed,
it'll roll down this trough,
hit this pole,
releasing
this end of the leaf,
which will then spill water
on the unsuspecting victim.
Any questions, my man?
Uh, just one.
Why would someone
push the coconut?
Exactamundo!
This brings us to
the subject of...
the bait.
But will it work?
[ Laughter in distance ]
That is what we're just
about to find out.
And the water
is so warm!
Ooh, I can't wait!
Shh! Come on!
We can swim
for at least --
Oh, look!
**
Oh, is he
not adorable?
He's so cute!
[ Clicks tongue ]
It's stuck!
Aah!
[ Laughs ]
You are right,
Wheeler.
That is a top-of-the-line
practical joke!
[ Laughs ]
I don't even want to know.
Wheeler, Ma-Ti, I need you
in the Crystal Chamber.
We have an eco-mystery.
We'd better run.
Come on.
Let's hurry!
**
[ Footsteps approaching ]
What's going on, Gaia?
Planeteers, this is
Darwinia, Australia.
And the problem is smog,
but it shouldn't be.
Look at this.
Kwame:
Utterly disgusting!
They have one of the best
mass transit systems around.
Everybody's within
six blocks of the train,
and yet hardly anyone
uses it.
The smog from the cars
is so thick,
even I can't see through it.
Planeteers,
you've got to find out
why no one
is riding that train.
Planeteer alert!
Look at that!
All these cars!
Unbelievable!
This is the worst smog
I have ever seen.
[ Both coughing ]
I know, Suchi.
It hurts to breathe.
**
Oh, this is too cool!
Look at this!
It's almost empty!
With such a nice train,
why do people drive?
It does not make sense.
[ Australian accent ] Well,
actually, it does, mates. G'day.
Uh, couldn't help
overhearing.
The name's Sam.
Hey, Sam. I'm Wheeler.
And this is Ma-Ti.
Bleak: Wow! Six people
in the last car.
That's the most
we've had in a week.
Give them the treatment --
the full treatment.
[ Laughs ]
Sam: And people say
when you go into tunnels,
things get crazy --
speeding through turns,
ghosts suddenly appearing
in the cars.
It makes me a little nervous,
I'll tell you.
But there are no such things
as ghosts.
Well, scoff if you want,
but how do you explain
28 missing train cars?
They go into the tunnels,
but they don't come out.
[ Horns honking ]
And it gets stranger.
Two boys saw a car
filled with people
disappear inside a tunnel,
but no one's
been reported missing.
Hmm. It is strange
that all these things
are happening in tunnels.
If everyone is so afraid,
Sam,
why are you
riding the train?
I've seen what happens
with too many autos, mates.
I had a scholarship
to journalism school
in Los Angeles.
Kwame:
So, you are a reporter?
Freelancer.
But if I can break this story,
I got myself a job.
Linka: What was that?
[ All gasp ]
[ Evil laughter ]
Uh, I'm afraid we've got
a little problem here, mates.
What's that, Sam?
I'm afraid of ghosts.
Hey, don't worry, Sam.
There's no such thing
as a...
ghost!
[ Screeches ]
Aah!
Aah!
[ Monkey screeches ]
[ Screeching ]
It is a hologram --
a three-dimensional picture.
Do not be afraid,
Suchi.
Ugh!
My seat belt,
it is crushing me!
[ Gasps, grunts ]
[ All grunting ]
The belts!
They have loosened!
[ All gasping ]
We are
picking up speed!
**
Whoa!
Whoa!
Aah!
Aah! Aah!
All: Who-o-o-a!
[ Monkey screeching ]
Whoa!
[ All screaming ]
**
Wheeler: Rad ride!
Let's go again!
A-A-Again?
Are you crazy?
Didn't you
see that ghost?
Nah, that was
just an illusion,
like at
an amusement park.
It wasn't real, Sam.
The only real this
is that someone
is trying to scare people
off the train.
And we must
find out who.
You may be right, but that ghost
looked real to me.
Sam, I'm telling you,
there's no such things
as ghosts.
Planeteers, I've got
some information for you.
Huh?
Oh!
[ Body thuds ]
Man, either he's heavier
than he looks,
or I'm out of shape.
[ Coughs ]
It is this smog.
Look,
Sam is waking up.
What happened?
Linka: Are you
feeling better?
Oh, yeah.
Nothing like a little lie-down
to pep you right up.
Sam, we just found out
about a company
called
Private Transport.
Do you know anything
about them?
Hmm.
They got a big building
downtown.
Can you show us where?
Yeah. But --
Good.
Come with us.
We'll get you your story.
Say,
where are they going?
To the train.
They're gonna sneak
into the tunnel
and find out
what's going on.
What about us?
We're going to take
a real close look
at Private Transport,
Incorporated.
Hang on!
**
Check it out!
A switch in the tracks!
Kwame: That is where
our car went.
But how do we
get inside?
Bleak: No problem, Planeteers!
All you have to do is ask!
What's going on?
Your worst nightmare!
Linka: And now,
back to "Captain Planet".
[ Both coughing ]
It's our specialty
of the day!
Concentrated smog!
[ Laughs ]
Get 'em, boys!
**
[ Monkey chitters ]
Ma-Ti: Good, Suchi.
Now go to the door.
Very good.
Open it, Suchi.
Good boy!
Go inside!
Now we will find out
what is going on here.
[ Monkey chittering ]
No. Try the next one.
No. Try again.
Yes! Yes, that could be it!
Hold up the pages, Suchi!
All right!
Now the last one...
and we are finished.
[ Monkey screeches ]
[ Australian accent ] Hey!
Suchi, run!
What kind of monkey business
is this?
[ Monkey screeches ]
Suchi is in trouble!
Hurry!
We must save Suchi!
[ Monkey chitters ]
Got you now,
banana breath!
[ Elevator bell dings ]
[ Elevator bell dings ]
[ Monkey chittering ]
[ Elevator bell dings ]
[ Breathing heavily ]
Ah! Where are you now?
[ Monkey chitters ]
Suchi! You made it!
Aah!
[ Grunts ]
[ Monkey chitters ]
Come back here,
you little --
[ Grunts ]
Aah!
Suchi!
Look! Up there!
I will get Suchi!
Wind!
Water!
Whoa!
[ Coughing ]
Yah!
[ Water splashes ]
[ Coughing ]
Huh?
[ Insects chirping ]
I got to get
a desk job.
Private Transit, Inc.
owns everything --
the gas stations,
car lots, and repair shops.
Yes, they own everything
but the train.
Oh, no.
The disappearing trains rumor
is not a rumor.
They are dumping the trains
into the ocean!
Why would they
do such a thing?
It's that guy.
He wants to build a freeway,
like in Los Angeles.
He's got to be the one
behind this.
Who?
Name of, uh, Plinder...
Plander...
Something like that.
Plunder!
Of course!
[ Speaks Russian ]
Looten Plunder!
We should have known!
If there is money
to be made from pollution --
Wait! What about
Wheeler and Kwame?
They could be
in big trouble!
Let's go!
Ah! I see you're admiring
my new freeway.
Your taste is improving.
We're not admiring it,
Plunder, you slime ball!
Uh, uh, uh!
Watch your manners, planetoid.
This switch isn't working,
Mr. Plunder.
Oh, well, get out there
and fix it.
[ Whispering ]
"Bleak, do this, Bleak, do
that." I'll get him one day.
Now, where were we?
Ah, yes, my freeway.
[ Laughs ]
There it is.
Independence.
Freedom from
the slavish timetable
of public transportation.
Isn't it beautiful?
It is hideous!
Look what is happening
to the air!
People cannot breathe!
Mr. Plunder,
we need you!
Must I do everything
myself?
Why am I surrounded
by incompetence?
If you'll
excuse me...
Hey!
Knock yourself out...
I hope!
Aah!
I tried, Wheeler.
They tied them too tight.
Kwame, my man [grunts]
you don't watch enough movies.
I took a deep breath
when they tied me up.
So?
So they couldn't
tie me as tightly.
So that's
Plunder's wild ride!
Plunder: What's that thing
still doing here?
I'll take care of it,
Mr. Plunder.
[ Beeping ]
[ Mechanical whirring ]
[ Beeping ]
We're out of here.
Look!
Ah!
That solves the mystery
of the disappearing people.
They were
only mannequins.
So, the dummy
uses dummies
to scare people
off the train.
Bleak! The Planeteers
have escaped!
They couldn't get out
the main entrance
without getting past us,
so they --
The train car!
After them!
Ma-Ti: They're somewhere
around here.
Heart!
They are very close.
What?
Huh?
O-o-oh!
Ugh!
The door is locked!
Come on! We got to
get out of here!
[ Grunting ]
I got to
burn through this lock.
Fire!
Planeteer alert!
A runaway train car.
[ Gasps ]
And it is filled
with people!
**
Kwame: Aah!
We're too late!
All those people!
What are we gonna do?
Heart!
There is no one inside
the train car except...
Wheeler and Kwame!
Oh, no!
Wheeler! Kwame!
Hold your breath,
Kwame!
[ Inhales sharply ]
Come on!
Come on!
Come on.
Come on!
[ Both gasping ]
Wheeler!
Kwame!
Oh, you have made it!
I was so worried!
Wheeler: And the rest of cars
are down there.
Plunder just dumped them!
What did you guys
find out?
Plunder
owns everything --
the car lots,
the gas stations...
[ Monkey sniffing,
and chittering ]
...the tire companies,
everything!
Oh, this is gonna make
a great story.
Yes!
[ Gasps ]
Too bad
you'll never tell it!
[ All gasping ]
Wind!
[ All coughing ]
Too much pollution.
[ Coughs ]
My ring will not work!
[ All coughing ]
Tie them up,
Bleak.
And do it right
this time!
That is Looten Plunder
and Argos Bleak.
I've got to do something!
**
Suchi, I have an idea.
You ever get
that déjà vu feeling?
Well, bon voyage,
planet punks.
With you out of the way
and the blue car line dead,
nothing is going to stop
my freeways.
Eh?
What the?
Bleak, what is
this mo--
[ Monkey screeching ]
Aah!
Aah!
[ Screeching continues ]
[ Grunts ]
Aah!
Aah!
Sam: There you go, mate.
Much better.
We're going too fast
to jump.
Then let our powers
combine!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Ma-Ti: Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
[ Screaming ]
[ Grunts ]
Nothing like
a little on-the-job training.
Sam: All right! Bravo!
Kwame: Outstanding, Cap!
Now it's time to derail
Plunder's plan.
He's gone.
Let's get out of here!
[ Engine starts ]
[ Grunts ]
[ Straining ] * I've...
* Been working
on the railroad *
* All the livelong day
[ Grunts ]
* I've been working
on the railroad *
* Just to pass the time away
**
[ Electricity crackles ]
**
Whoa!
There. That should put things
back on track around here.
[ Indistinct talking ]
Hey, mates.
Me first story!
That is great!
Excellent, Sam.
Well done!
How about the lot of you
autographing it, huh?
And since Ma-Ti
saved the day,
he gets to go first.
Aah!
That was truly top of the line,
Wheeler.
[ Both laugh ]
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
Wheeler:
Bumper-to-bumper traffic
is no picnic for anyone.
[ Coughs ] And no one likes
to breathe the pollution
produced by too many cars!
But there are things we can all
do to help the environment.
We can carpool.
And combine several errands
into one trip.
Everyone has to do their part
if we want clean air.
Right, team?
[ All cheer ]
Remember,
the power is yours!
Wheeler: We'll be right back
with more Planeteer action.
Go, Planet!
Some people want to drive
the biggest car on the road.
And large cars use up
large amounts of gas.
And that means
more air pollution.
But no matter
what size a car is,
it's important to
keep it tuned up.
[ Coughs ]
Cars that are not cared for
make the smoke problem
even greater.
Avoid the hog
and the smog.
All: 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!

only mannequins.
So, the dummy
uses dummies
to scare people
off the train.
Bleak! The Planeteers
have escaped!
They couldn't get out
the main entrance
without getting past us,
so they --
The train car!
After them!
Ma-Ti: They're somewhere
around here.
Heart!
They are very close.
What?
Huh?
O-o-oh!
Ugh!
The door is locked!
Come on! We got to
get out of here!
[ Grunting ]
I got to
burn through this lock.
Fire!
Planeteer alert!
A runaway train car.
[ Gasps ]
And it is filled
with people!
**
Kwame: Aah!
We're too late!
All those people!
What are we gonna do?
Heart!
There is no one inside
the train car except...
Wheeler and Kwame!
Oh, no!
Wheeler! Kwame!
Hold your breath,
Kwame!
[ Inhales sharply ]
Come on!
Come on!
Come on.
Come on!
[ Both gasping ]
Wheeler!
Kwame!
Oh, you have made it!
I was so worried!
Wheeler: And the rest of cars
are down there.
Plunder just dumped them!
What did you guys
find out?
Plunder
owns everything --
the car lots,
the gas stations...
[ Monkey sniffing,
and chittering ]
...the tire companies,
everything!
Oh, this is gonna make
a great story.
Yes!
[ Gasps ]
Too bad
you'll never tell it!
[ All gasping ]
Wind!
[ All coughing ]
Too much pollution.
[ Coughs ]
My ring will not work!
[ All coughing ]
Tie them up,
Bleak.
And do it right
this time!
That is Looten Plunder
and Argos Bleak.
I've got to do something!
**
Suchi, I have an idea.
You ever get
that déjà vu feeling?
Well, bon voyage,
planet punks.
With you out of the way
and the blue car line dead,
nothing is going to stop
my freeways.
Eh?
What the?
Bleak, what is
this mo--
[ Monkey screeching ]
Aah!
Aah!
[ Screeching continues ]
[ Grunts ]
Aah!
Aah!
Sam: There you go, mate.
Much better.
We're going too fast
to jump.
Then let our powers
combine!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Ma-Ti: Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
All: Go, Planet!
[ Screaming ]
[ Grunts ]
Nothing like
a little on-the-job training.
Sam: All right! Bravo!
Kwame: Outstanding, Cap!
Now it's time to derail
Plunder's plan.
He's gone.
Let's get out of here!
[ Engine starts ]
[ Grunts ]
[ Straining ] * I've...
* Been working
on the railroad *
* All the livelong day
[ Grunts ]
* I've been working
on the railroad *
* Just to pass the time away
**
[ Electricity crackles ]
**
Whoa!
There. That should put things
back on track around here.
[ Indistinct talking ]
Hey, mates.
Me first story!
That is great!
Excellent, Sam.
Well done!
How about the lot of you
autographing it, huh?
And since Ma-Ti
saved the day,
he gets to go first.
Aah!
That was truly top of the line,
Wheeler.
[ Both laugh ]
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
Wheeler:
Bumper-to-bumper traffic
is no picnic for anyone.
[ Coughs ] And no one likes
to breathe the pollution
produced by too many cars!
But there are things we can all
do to help the environment.
We can carpool.
And combine several errands
into one trip.
Everyone has to do their part
if we want clean air.
Right, team?
[ All cheer ]
Remember,
the power is yours!
Wheeler: We'll be right back
with more Planeteer action.
Go, Planet!
Some people want to drive
the biggest car on the road.
And large cars use up
large amounts of gas.
And that means
more air pollution.
But no matter
what size a car is,
it's important to
keep it tuned up.
[ Coughs ]
Cars that are not cared for
make the smoke problem
even greater.
Avoid the hog
and the smog.
All: 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!
