Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990–1996): Season 2, Episode 17 - Summit to Save Earth: Part 1 - 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!
Fire!
Earth!
Wind!
Water!
[ Thunder rumbles ]
Linka:
Ma-Ti!
[ Speaking Russian ]
Move! Mud slide!
Get out of there!
Oh, no!
[ Gasping ]
He'll never make it!
Unless we let our powers
combine!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Aah!
Aah!
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
Go, Planet!
Ah! Ah!
Well, there goes
the neighborhood.
Come on, Ma-Ti.
Let's go for a spin.
Whoa!
Aah!
Aah!
Aah!
Aah!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Okay, you guys.
When you're through
playing around,
come back to Hope Island.
The Earth Summit
is about to begin.
Gi: I still don't know why
we have to go to this meeting.
All they do is talk.
Gi is right.
This planet needs action,
not more useless talk.
This talk could get countries
of the world working together
to fix environmental
problems.
That's what the Earth Summit
is all about. Ooh!
Ohh!
[ Laughs evilly ]
Ma-Ti:
Are you all right?
Gi: Gaia?
Wheeler: What's wrong?
I don't know.
Oh! Where was I?
The Earth Summit.
Yes, the Earth Summit.
It's time to show you just
how important this meeting is.
Wow!
Extraordinary!
Beautiful!
It is like home, eh, Suchi?
[ Chattering ]
[ Laughter ]
It is a hologram,
Suchi.
And it's awesome!
It's nature.
If countries don't agree
to protect the world's forests,
this is what will happen.
No!
Ah!
Now do you see why
this summit is so important?
All right!
My hometown --
the Big Apple!
It could be the Rotten Apple
if we don't stop global warming
from melting the polar icecaps.
[ Elephant trumpets ]
Africa --
my homeland.
[ Roars ]
[ Trumpets ]
The animals!
What happened to them?
Gone, Kwame.
At the rate we're going,
killing off 100 plant, animal,
or insect species per day,
they have no future --
unless we start protecting
their habitats right now.
And I'll bet you always thought
that Hope Island was safe
from devastation, right?
Wrong. What happens in one place
affects the whole world.
[ Birds screeching ]
No! Not the dolphins!
Stop, Gaia, please!
It's horrible.
Yes, it is.
The future of the world looks
pretty bleak for all of us,
unless the countries
of the world start cooperating.
And for that to happen,
the Earth summit is the key.
I am glad
this is a hologram.
I would hate
to breathe this air.
Yeah. Looks like you could
drill it with a jackhammer.
Hey, Gaia, all right.
We get the point.
Patience, Planeteers.
I want you to meet
our future leaders
if the Earth summit fails.
Look familiar?
Greedly?
Plunder?
Dr. Blight?
And Nukem, Sludge,
and Skumm!
Drink up, my foul friends.
But first, a toxic toast.
To beautiful, spacious,
smog-ridden skies...
Hear! Hear!
...and burning waves
of acid rain...
Nothing prettier!
...to purple mountains
of oozing toxic landfills...
Oh, yeah!
Pour it on, babe!
...above the desolate,
strip-mined, clear-cut...
Sounds like money.
...overgrazed,
totally blighted plains.
Ha ha ha!
Bottoms up, boys!
Here's mud in your eye.
I'll drink to that!
[ Laughing and snorting ]
This can't be
our future!
This is it,
if the Earth Summit fails.
That's why you have to go,
Planeteers.
You can be sure that the
eco-villains are already there.
They're not gonna wreck the
Earth Summit if we can help it!
We're out of here!
"Save the Earth."
Bah! Skummbug!
Now, how do we ruin this global
gathering of eco-geeks?
Maybe some genetically
mutated seasoning
in the appetizers
would spice things up.
Yeah!
Toxic-waste cocktails
would give them a real buzz.
A nuclear accident
would be a blast.
How 'bout we turn
their meeting hall
into the world's
largest landfill?
That'll trash their party.
I can't tell you how amusing
I find your quaint little ideas.
Quaint little ideas?
What's the big idea,
Blunder?
Big, indeed, Greedly.
Aah! Aah!
Whoa!
Ha ha ha!
How easily fooled you are.
At last, the Earth is finally
polluted enough for me.
No one sneaks up on me!
Hey, no harm intended,
big fella.
But just out of curiosity,
how did you do that --
you know, look like me?
That is my power.
Soon, you'll share the ability
to transform yourselves.
So? Hey, that's nice,
but, look, we're developing
a plan here, and --
You miserable worms
develop a plan? Ha!
You'll never figure out
a way to stop Captain Planet.
And he will show up
and wipe you off
the face of the Earth!
That's why
you bumbling incompetents
will be working for me.
Hey, I work for no one!
Uh, well,
maybe part-time.
Now, then, to get rid
of Captain Planet
and his Planet-pests,
we must defeat Earth itself.
Greedly: Gaia?
Of course. She's the source
of their power.
Destroy her,
and you destroy them.
Destroy them,
and the world
is ours...
forever.
Man: President Fuerte,
sir, can I just ask...
Whoa! Major media!
Gi: It looks like all
the heavy hitters are here.
The Earth Summit
is the first time
all the nations will join
together to save our planet.
It is a turning point for Earth.
Her future, our future,
hangs in the balance.
President Fuerte,
what are your goals here?
First, to slow down
climate change.
Gaia was right!
They really are
going to do something
to save the planet.
Preserving natural habitats
will also --
[ Whispering ]
Please excuse me.
I will return.
[ Chattering ]
[ Chattering continues ]
Ha ha ha!
Oh!
I wish I knew
what was going on.
Whatever it is,
I don't like it.
Now, where were we?
What about
the old-growth forests?
Any action to protect them?
Why? We need new, young trees,
not old, rotting ones.
What did he say?
I say cut them down --
the sooner, the better!
[ Murmuring ]
What about the rain forests?
Oh, those!
Wet, nasty places
filled with slimy,
dreadful creatures.
Please, excuse me.
I don't get it.
This does not seem
like the same man.
No, it does not.
Heart!
[ Gasps ]
Ma-Ti, what is it?
Nothing! It is like
there is nothing there!
Something's wrong.
Let's stay close
to this guy.
President Fuerte,
what's going on?
Gi: What is that?
I do not like this.
Get ready to run.
Fire!
[ Screeching ]
Shh!
What is this place?
Let me go!
Ha ha ha!
Yes, come to me,
my sweet.
All: Zarm!
Ah! Ah!
No!
Aah!
Let's get this over with.
Aah!
What are they doing?
Look at Dr. Blight!
She looks exactly like
Vice President Lockwood.
Okay. Now the voice check.
Testing! Very soon,
the acid rain in Spain
will be mainly...
[ Imitating Lockwood ]
Polluting the plains.
No!
Yes!
Quickly,
bring in more delegates!
This is outrageous!
I demand to know
what's going on.
Let me go! You'll never
get away with this!
Well, well, well.
Come on. We've got to
stop this!
I don't think so,
Planet-pest!
Got you, you little punk!
Ah!
[ Screeching ]
[ Chomp! ]
Quickly, Planeteers!
We must call --
Ha ha ha!
No!
[ Screeching ]
No more tricks.
I only want this!
No! My ring!
Your ring
is now mine.
And now to complete
my Planeteer
ring collection
and get on
to bigger game --
Gaia
and Captain Planet.
Ha ha ha!
This won't hurt a bit.
Zarm, you planet-wrecker!
I'm going -- Aah!
You are going to
behave yourselves.
Whoa!
Aah!
Ugh!
Hey, what is this?
Let me out!
It's a force field!
No kidding,
Sherlock.
Hurry, Zarm!
[ Imitating Lockwood ]
I mean, hurry, Zarm.
It's time for Fuerte's speech
in the assembly.
Don't want to, uh,
keep my public waiting.
I'm about to make the world
a better place to live --
[ Imitating Fuerte ]
for me, that is.
It will never work, Zarm.
The delegates will not
go along with it.
They want to save Earth
like we do!
[ Laughs ] Not after
I round them all up
and replace them
with my puppets.
[ Laughs evilly ]
After I use all of my
transformation helmets,
no one will be of a mind
to oppose my plans.
[ Laughs evilly ]
Good-bye, Planeteers.
Oh, how
could I forget?
No!
Our rings!
Hey!
Hey!
[ Laughs evilly ]
Lock them up and get to work.
I want my people
in that assembly hall
within the hour.
Ready for your
beauty treatment, Plunder?
I say, I feel
like a new man.
Get moving, Plunder,
to the assembly hall.
Greedly, come here!
You got to see this.
[ Applause ]
Now to turn on
the Zarm charm.
[ Clears throat ]
[ Imitating Fuerte ]
Welcome to Earth Summit,
a summit to change
the world radically.
First of all,
I wish to correct
a few misconceptions
about Earth.
It's in great shape,
my friends!
We have been the victims
of inconclusive studies --
doomsayers.
There's no proof
of ill effects
from dumping waste
into the ocean
or building on landfills,
for that matter,
so I say keep dumping!
Keep building!
[ All shouting ]
Yeah! That's it!
Go for it!
I want to hear it that way!
Yeah! Yeah! Yay!
And as for the old-growth
and rain forests,
well, don't get me wrong.
I'm all for trees --
lots of them! --
so we can cut them down
for development.
[ Murmuring ]
Jolly good!
Hear! Hear!
Yay!
Yay!
Yay!
Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah!
Oh, yeah!
And all this hysteria
about global warming?
Complete hogwash!
You said it, Zarm!
Boy, I'm going to like being
his numero u honcho.
I'll be wallowing
in the lap of luxury!
Hold on, rump roast!
I'll be his main man!
Ha ha ha! [ Snorts ]
You nuked-out hothead!
You got to be kidding.
Nuked-out hothead?
Hey! Hey,
take it easy, big guy.
Whoa!
Our rings!
Whoa!
Aah!
Linka!
I'm all right, Wheeler.
Nukem's beam
bounced off this.
That gives me an idea.
What's the matter,
piggy-wiggy?
Nu-- Nuke, buddy,
relax.
You know what porkers
like you are good for?
Barbecue!
Yeow!
Here goes.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
I'm sorry, Nukem.
I'm sorry.
[ Crying ]
Let me go!
Those eco-brats are escaping!
Wind!
Water!
Aah! Ah!
Sayonara, saps!
Earth!
Yeow! Yeow!
Hurry!
Call Gaia!
Don't worry,
Planeteers.
I'm already here.
Thank goodness, Gaia!
Zarm is turning the delegates --
I know. There's only
one way to stop him.
Quickly,
give me your rings.
Wait! My ring!
How did you --
[ Gasps ] Zarm!
[ Laughs evilly ]
You're quick, Ma-Ti,
but not quick enough.
Seize them!
Zarm! I should have known.
This time you've gone too far.
Well, I'm gonna put a stop
to this right now.
Ah!
You wanted to see me, Zarm?
Well, here I am.
Leave right now,
or I can help you leave.
But mark my words --
I will not let you
destroy this planet.
You tell him, Gaia!
Not only will I destroy
this planet,
I will destroy you!
Oh! Ooh!
Gaia! No!
You can try, but it will take
more than this toxic ooze
to defeat the spirit
of the Earth.
Yech! Butterflies!
Show him, Gaia!
The game is up,
Gaia.
Planeteers,
shield your eyes.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
I'll -- Aah!
What's the matter, Zarm?
Afraid you'll melt?
She sure is giving him
the cold shoulder.
Give up, Zarm.
The good powers
of the Earth
outmatch your evil
any day.
Maybe you can withstand
my attacks, Gaia,
but how about
your precious Planeteers?
The powers of pollution!
Smog! Acid rain!
Toxic waste!
Who will you save, Gaia --
yourself or the Planeteers?
Choose!
[ Coughing and gagging ]
No! Leave them alone!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Gaia, no.
Now I've got you.
Wrong choice,
Gaia.
Now you
lose it all.
Aah!
Oof!
Gaia!
Gaia!
You haven't won, Zarm,
not by a long shot.
Oh, no?
Ha ha ha!
Ah!
Ah!
No!
No!
[ Crying ]
Oh, Gaia.
Go, Planet!
Captain Planet wants you
to help save the Earth.
With world leaders meeting
for the Earth Summit
in June of 1992,
this is your chance
to be heard.
We are all part
of the tree of life.
To show your support,
draw a leaf on a postcard
and send it to
your head of state.
People all over the world
will be sending these,
so get your friends and
schoolmates to do it, too.
Together,
we can make a difference.
The power is yours!
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
Countries spend
billions of dollars
on armies and weapons to defend
themselves from one another.
But Earth faces a more serious
and common enemy.
Captain Clash:
The enemy is pollution.
Let's use our money, people,
and time
to help stop
this threat to our survival.
Let us make it a mission --
a mission to save Earth!
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!

Gaia, the spirit of the Earth,

All: Go, Planet!
Captain Planet:
The power is yours!
Fire!
Earth!
Wind!
Water!
[ Thunder rumbles ]
Linka:
Ma-Ti!
[ Speaking Russian ]
Move! Mud slide!
Get out of there!
Oh, no!
[ Gasping ]
He'll never make it!
Unless we let our powers
combine!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Aah!
Aah!

well, don't get me wrong.
I'm all for trees --
lots of them! --
so we can cut them down
for development.
[ Murmuring ]
Jolly good!
Hear! Hear!
Yay!
Yay!
Yay!
Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah!
Oh, yeah!
And all this hysteria
about global warming?
Complete hogwash!
You said it, Zarm!
Boy, I'm going to like being
his numero u honcho.
I'll be wallowing
in the lap of luxury!
Hold on, rump roast!
I'll be his main man!
Ha ha ha! [ Snorts ]
You nuked-out hothead!
You got to be kidding.
Nuked-out hothead?
Hey! Hey,
take it easy, big guy.
Whoa!
Our rings!
Whoa!
Aah!
Linka!
I'm all right, Wheeler.
Nukem's beam
bounced off this.
That gives me an idea.
What's the matter,
piggy-wiggy?
Nu-- Nuke, buddy,
relax.
You know what porkers
like you are good for?
Barbecue!
Yeow!
Here goes.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
I'm sorry, Nukem.
I'm sorry.
[ Crying ]
Let me go!
Those eco-brats are escaping!
Wind!
Water!
Aah! Ah!
Sayonara, saps!
Earth!
Yeow! Yeow!
Hurry!
Call Gaia!
Don't worry,
Planeteers.
I'm already here.
Thank goodness, Gaia!
Zarm is turning the delegates --
I know. There's only
one way to stop him.
Quickly,
give me your rings.
Wait! My ring!
How did you --
[ Gasps ] Zarm!
[ Laughs evilly ]
You're quick, Ma-Ti,
but not quick enough.
Seize them!
Zarm! I should have known.
This time you've gone too far.
Well, I'm gonna put a stop
to this right now.
Ah!
You wanted to see me, Zarm?
Well, here I am.
Leave right now,
or I can help you leave.
But mark my words --
I will not let you
destroy this planet.
You tell him, Gaia!
Not only will I destroy
this planet,
I will destroy you!
Oh! Ooh!
Gaia! No!
You can try, but it will take
more than this toxic ooze
to defeat the spirit
of the Earth.
Yech! Butterflies!
Show him, Gaia!
The game is up,
Gaia.
Planeteers,
shield your eyes.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
I'll -- Aah!
What's the matter, Zarm?
Afraid you'll melt?
She sure is giving him
the cold shoulder.
Give up, Zarm.
The good powers
of the Earth
outmatch your evil
any day.
Maybe you can withstand
my attacks, Gaia,
but how about
your precious Planeteers?
The powers of pollution!
Smog! Acid rain!
Toxic waste!
Who will you save, Gaia --
yourself or the Planeteers?
Choose!
[ Coughing and gagging ]
No! Leave them alone!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Gaia, no.
Now I've got you.
Wrong choice,
Gaia.
Now you
lose it all.
Aah!
Oof!
Gaia!
Gaia!
You haven't won, Zarm,
not by a long shot.
Oh, no?
Ha ha ha!
Ah!
Ah!
No!
No!
[ Crying ]
Oh, Gaia.
Go, Planet!
Captain Planet wants you
to help save the Earth.
With world leaders meeting
for the Earth Summit
in June of 1992,
this is your chance
to be heard.
We are all part
of the tree of life.
To show your support,
draw a leaf on a postcard
and send it to
your head of state.
People all over the world
will be sending these,
so get your friends and
schoolmates to do it, too.
Together,
we can make a difference.
The power is yours!
Planeteers: Go, Planet!
Countries spend
billions of dollars
on armies and weapons to defend
themselves from one another.
But Earth faces a more serious
and common enemy.
Captain Clash:
The enemy is pollution.
Let's use our money, people,
and time
to help stop
this threat to our survival.
Let us make it a mission --
a mission to save Earth!
The power is yours!
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
