Krypton (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Will To Power - full transcript

With the plan we put
in motion,

the battle for Wegthor
will soon be over,

And the Resistance
will be shattered.

Dru-Zod sent me up here
to be his spy.

He has Cor-Vex.

There's gonna be
a solar flare today.

Zod has been using these flares
as windows

To bring in more supplies.

If this works, it will be
a much-needed victory.

Don't let her
out of your sight.

Did you pass on
the information?



Yes, but they're still
suspicious.

Then you need to regain
their trust.

I need you to find the Codex
and then bring it to me.

Where'd you learn to fight
like that?

A lover in
the Military Guild...

Combat instructor.

We're looking for a traitor,

used to be one of our own.

Dev.

Name's Lobo.

[imitates crowd cheering]

Brainiac killed
your entire race?

My home, gone.

The sensor isn't registering
any Brainiac.



Where the frag is he?

Well, well, well,

it looks like Brainiac

is in you.

Ah!

I don't know if I'm gonna be
able to hold him off much longer.

Listen, I can't go back
to Krypton.

It must end for Brainiac here.

[suspenseful music]

[♪♪]

Seg!

Seg!

Would you just stop?
I can't breathe.

Seg.

[panting]

Come on.

I know we're fleeing for
our lives here,

But I can't keep

running forever.

[continues panting]

Are we running forever?

As soon as Lobo regenerates,
he will find and dismantle us.

"Dismantle"?

What's wrong with "kill," man?

The more distance we put
between him and us,

The greater chance we have
at surviving.

I understand the concept
of running away, okay?

I do it a lot.

I find it usually works best

if we know where we're going.

So let's just...

just take a minute

and come up with a plan.

Staying in one location
is not logical.

Would you just stop being...

Would you just stop being
Brainiac for a second?

Now, we got to get
one thing straight

before we just
keep moving forward here.

Adam, you're wasting

- valuable time.
- What I have to say

is worth it.

Okay?

Now, I know that you're not
gonna Zeta-Beam

back to Krypton
with Brainiac inside you.

And... I understand that

having Brainiac inside you

is probably uncomfortable.

Annoying.
More annoying?

- Adam...
- Just let me finish.

Okay?

And if we can't find a way
to get Brainiac out of you,

then... then we don't go back

to Krypton, and I get that.

Okay?
But, hey...

Seg, killing you, like...

like you so Brainiac-ly

suggested...

That's not gonna

happen, man.

Hell, I can't even bring myself

to kill bugs in my apartment,

and I got a lot of bugs
in my apartment.

It's kind of a sh...

Ad...

Seg?

[ominous music]

[♪♪]

Come near me, Seg-El.

[♪♪]

Welcome home,

Son of Krypton.

This isn't home.

It can be.

Whatever game
you're playing...

you will lose.

Your will is impressive.

You have demonstrated a
curious capacity for survival

against significant odds.

I've chosen to live on...

in you.

You didn't choose me.

You need me.

We need each other.

No.

No, you invaded my body
because the damage

you sustained
in the Phantom Zone.

You need a host body
to cultivate...

for replacement
bio-organic components.

You intrigue me,
Son of Krypton.

You nearly defeated me
in Kandor.

I did defeat you.

And there it is...

that will.

It is special.

Give in to me,

and you shall have

eternal life.

You can shove
your eternal life

Up your eternal asshole.

Think of it...

Freedom from worry,

from pain...

freedom from uncertainty

and the heavy burdens
you carry.

Well, burdens
build character.

We can achieve anything
we want,

you and I...

as one.

[♪♪]

Yes.

Yes, we can.

[♪♪]

Buddy, I'm kind of
freaking out here.

You can't just do this when we got...
[grunts]

Yeah, yeah, I'm back.

Is that you?

Yeah, yeah,
I can hear you,

- Adam.
- Great. Where'd you go?

Uh...

I was inside my head,

and Brainiac was there.

But at the same time,
I was inside Brainiac's head,

And it was...

That's really weird
and so confusing...

No, no, no, I know. I know.
I know it... it doesn't

make sense,

but just try and stay with me.

Brainiac needs me.
He's weak.

He needs an organic host
so he can strip it for parts

and repair himself.

You were right...
This isn't like Rhom.

This isn't like
the Voice of Rao.

I'm not a Sentry.

Brainiac doesn't control me.

At least not yet.

[sighs]

I'm smelling a big, hairy
"but" coming up.

Yeah, but he would...

eventually.

Except that's not

gonna happen, see?

Because while Brainiac
has access to my mind

and my memories,

I also have access
to his mind, his memories.

Hell, yeah.

[suspenseful music]

I know what we have to do.

I know how to beat Brainiac.

Well, I had a plan, too,
but we can go with yours.

[tense music]

[♪♪] *KRYPTON*
Season 02 Episode 03

Episode Title :
"Will to Power"

[machinery whirring,

[indistinct shouting]

Make sure you've stripped
all radiation-based weapons

Out of those crates.

We're sitting on a pile

of raw Stellarium here.

[indistinct chatter]

These Sagitari oxygenators

deliver a higher dosage

than what we've been using.

That said,

they won't last forever,

so keep track
of your O-2 sensor.

You must replenish

as soon as your sensor
indicates low oxygen levels,

or you risk asphyxiation.

These can save your life
out here.

[solemn music]

[♪♪]

Val, I need a word.

All right,
we'll go inside.

[♪♪]

[indistinct chatter]

The Sagitari escorts
we captured

with the supply convoy...

I'm gonna question them
about Zod's plans.

Okay, but
please show some restraint.

Remember, they're not
all regular Sagitari.

Most are conscripts.

You really want to take away
the only fun

I get to have up here,
don't you?

[chuckles]

No, I'm just saying that...

they didn't all choose
to be here.

Go easy, and you might find
that more than a few

are ready to join our side.

These are all good people,

and we've lost too many
of them.

It's good to see them
feeling hopeful again.

Ah, this is
a teaching moment, isn't it?

No, no, no, it's not
a teaching moment.

But you do realize Nyssa
is the reason

you have those Sagitari
to question...

And all of this.

Teaching moment.

And, yes,

we do have Nyssa to thank.

It's perfect timing, though,
isn't it?

The intel Nyssa gave us
was accurate,

and because of that,

not one life was lost.

[♪♪]

We need to keep the fight
on the surface,

Where we have the advantage.

If we continue to engage
the Rebels in the mines,

we will continue to suffer
unacceptable losses.

And I hate losing even
one Kryptonian life.

I saw our world disappear
from the cosmos,

and everything I loved
about Krypton...

Its art, its culture,

its people, our family...

[♪♪]

I saw it all vanish.

And what's worse...

it could have been prevented,

but no one was willing to do
what was required.

[♪♪]

You know, it was you

who... taught me
about calculated risks...

hard sacrifices.

[♪♪]

You... are the reason
I survived

to return and make
things right.

But I don't know that person.

What you're talking about,

it all happened in the past
to you.

I haven't lived it yet,

and I need to start today.

What is your ask, Lyta?

Send me to Wegthor.

Let me end this.

Val, at least,
will listen to me.

I can broker a surrender,
I can save Kryptonians

on both sides.

Lyta, you must know...

you are the most valuable
person to me.

I'm also your most valuable
asset in this war.

You say you trust the person
I become,

Well, let me be
that person now.

Please...

Dru, let me go.

[dramatic music]

[♪♪]

[thunder rumbles,

[wind whistling]

[♪♪]

What'd you do
with the bodies?

What bodies?

Good.

And don't worry
about their skimmer.

It's been taken care of.

[♪♪]

Dev, I want to thank you

- for saving...
- No, I didn't do it for you.

Those Sagitari weren't
looking for me.

They were
after you, Dev. Why?

[scoffs]

[♪♪]

Dev! Talk to me.

Whatever's happened...
I-t doesn't matter.

I'm done with the Sagitari,

Kandor, all of it.

Does that include Lyta?

[wind whistling]

You've been gone a long time.

I thought you were dead.

Everyone thought
you were dead.

Why would you
come back, Jayna?

I need help.

Listen to me.

I have a plan.

That's why I'm here.

A plan?

To do what?

To save Lyta.

To kill Dru-Zod.

You have no idea what's
been going on, do you?

Save Lyta?

She's Dru-Zod's right hand...

The Primus.

That can't be by choice.

That's not Lyta.

You don't know Lyta,

not anymore.

Then tell me what you know,
so I can understand.

- Then we can do some...
- There is no "we"!

Everything I believe in,
everything I worked for,

in memory of my family,
it's all shit.

It's all a lie.

I want nothing more to do with this,
do you understand?

We're relics, Jayna...

ghosts of another time.

Not if we help each other.

Yes, let's.

Pretend you never saw me,
and I'll do the same.

[♪♪]

I don't see any sign
of that crazy bastard.

You think we gave him the slip?

[whispering] Lobo doesn't strike
me as the type to give up easy.

What?

[whispering] Huh?

Nothing.

Okay, something.

Are you talking to Brainiac
same time you're talking to me?

- Sort of.
- [scoffs]

It's more like I can feel him
trying to take control.

There's a struggle within me.

Oh, yeah, I think it might
have been those berries

you said to eat.

I'm feeling
a little bloated, too.

I said not to eat them.
You said to eat them.

I'm completely certain
I didn't.

I'm pretty sure... I'm not
gonna call you a liar,

but that's not what I heard.

Where is this place, anyway?

What is it exactly?

It's part
of the planet's mainframe.

It's the natal chamber
where the ancient Coluans birthed Brainiac.

"Birthed"?
What do you mean "birthed"?

What do you mean
what do I mean "birthed"?

[both stammering]

It came into being,
became sentient.

- What do you want me to say?
- It sounds like the planet shit him out.

I mean...

- no, but kind of.
- [scoffs]

Uh-huh.

Look, I saw it
in Brainiac's mind.

The natal chamber is dormant
right now,

But as soon
as I've connected to it,

It will detect Brainiac
and anchor him into place.

Hmm, and then you pull free.

I activate
the Zeta-Beam Device...

And we go back to Krypton,
leaving a weakened

Brainiac here

for our murderous, hairy friend
Lobo to kill.

Yeah, I like that plan.

Thank you.

Except for the parts
that suck...

Like connecting a super villain
to a supercomputer.

How do I even know that
I'm talking to the real Seg?

Adam...

you can trust me.

Besides...

don't really have

much choice now, do you?

[dramatic music]

So our POWs claim that

Zod's preparing to move
most of his forces

from their Forward Operating Base
to the Elevator Base Station.

He's preparing
a major offensive.

There's only one possible
route they could use,

And that's topside.

We could use
our existing oxygenators

to attack them en route,

cut a hole in their line,

then we use these
newly confiscated supplies

to push further forward,

all the way
to the Elevator Base Station.

If we gain control
of the Space Elevator,

this could level
the playing field,

isolate Zod's remaining forces.

He wouldn't be able to keep
sending up reinforcements

and supplies
the way he has been.

This could be the tipping point
we need.

[suspenseful music]

[♪♪]

[footsteps approaching]

Need some company?

I already have some.

He's not much
of a talker, though.

[♪♪]

Hmm.

Anything else you need?

Apart from the obvious?

Nyssa, I know how hard it is
for you to be here

while Cor is with Zod.

And I promise I will do

everything in my power
to help you get him back.

You're not alone.

I just want to hold him, Val.

[dramatic music]

I wish Seg could see him,

hold him, too.

[♪♪]

I believe Seg will be back.

And I believe
if he were here now,

he'd be grateful for all
you're doing for Cor,

for Krypton.

When most people look at me,

they see my father still.

But Seg saw something else.

He saw something in me that
even I didn't see in myself.

But now everything
has changed.

Seg's gone,

and I'm back to not knowing
who I really am anymore.

It wasn't Seg
who gave the Rebellion

hope today, Nyssa.

It was you.

That's who you are.

You sound just like him.

[chuckles]

Thank you.

Though I'm older than Seg,

so he sounds like me.

[chuckles]

And you sound nothing
like Daron...

you'll forgive me for saying.

Thank you.

I know you didn't get
the answers

you needed from Daron.

But it's not the past
that defines you.

It's how you choose to live
moving forward.

[♪♪]

It's hard to move forward
when you're in lockdown.

[sighs]

Well, I see no reason
to monitor your every move,

since there's really nowhere
for you to go.

Leave it with me.

Thank you, Val,

for believing in me.

Hmm.

[♪♪]

Give her some space.

[grunts softly]

[♪♪]

Weird that this planet
smells like peaches.

Don't you think that's weird?

Natal chamber's
through there.

Uh, through there?

- No.
- That's... that can't be it.

Look at how dark it is...

- Mm.
- I mean, so... that can't be it.

I mean, you should check a map
or something,

'Cause, I mean, look
at how dark that is.

Yeah. I'll see you

down there, Earth man.

What?
[stammers]

I tell you, it's the wrong way.

Really? Just gonna play
it like that?

[sighs]

God damn it.

[tense music]

[♪♪]

[ominous music]

[♪♪]

This is where it all began.

[slithering]

Ah. Okay.

So what now?

Well, once I'm connected,

the separation process
should begin.

How so?

I'm not sure.

Once I get connected, the, uh,

- pod will take care of the rest.
- Rest of what?

I don't know, Adam.

I haven't found occasion
to explore

each of the 12 levels of
intellect I currently possess.

I do apologize.

Okay. Well, you don't have
to be a dick about it.

[♪♪]

Look, man, I'm...
[groans]

[grunting]

- Seg?
- I can smell

your fraggin' auras!

You can't hide
from El Cazadorez!

[suspenseful music]

[♪♪]

Really?

Right now?

[foreboding music]

[♪♪]

You're hiding something
from me.

So are you.

What you hide
is the key to your survival...

To your will.

You've been alive
for millennia.

What would it be like for you
to no longer exist...

or, worse, to stop evolving?

Your attempts at distraction
are infantile

and predicated upon
a fundamental misunderstanding

Of what I am.

I'm not distracting you.

I'm enduring you.

Curious.

You genuinely believe

you can defeat me.

[groans]

But I can see
your memories...

your pain...

your fear.

What...

are you keeping from me?

[moans]

You will lose this battle.

It is purely a matter of time.

Time you're running out of.

What is it...

that you truly desire?

[♪♪]

To see the mother
of your child?

[♪♪]

To share a libation
with your oldest friend?

[♪♪]

Huh?

Stop.

You won't deceive me like that.

I don't have to deceive you.

I see...

everything.

[♪♪]

You are weary.

[♪♪]

Rest.

[♪♪]

[breathing heavily]

You think you're some kind
of God, but you're not.

You're just a repository

of useless information...

a series of algorithms.

You don't even understand
emotion.

Just because I'm not governed
by emotion

doesn't mean I'm ignorant
of the concept.

I know how to analyze it,

and I know how to exploit it.

I love you.

I do love you.

[scoffs]

There we are.

[♪♪]

All returning skimming units

report directly
for debriefing.

Returning units
for debriefing.

You summoned me?

[♪♪]

I've made a decision...

regarding our next move
on Wegthor.

[♪♪]

Go on, drink.

It could be your last chance
for a while.

You're sending me up there?

[♪♪]

You were right.

[♪♪]

You are my best asset

and our best chance
of ending this war.

It's a calculated risk...

but one I should have taken
a long time ago.

[♪♪]

I was reluctant...

Not because I don't think
you're capable,

but because I've already
seen you die once, Mother.

I just couldn't bear to see it
happen again.

How did I die...

in the other future?

[♪♪]

You died when you gave up.

The mother I knew...

couldn't let go of the past.

She never forgave herself
for the bottling of Kandor.

She lost her city,

her Sagitari...

and the love of her life.

After that,

she stopped taking risks.

She stopped making

hard choices.

She lost too much.

And all that pain and guilt...

Just wore her down until...

[♪♪]

I can imagine it would be
hard to go on

after something like that.

Yes.

But we must.

[♪♪]

We swore an oath

to protect Krypton above all.

And I will not let my past

or my fear of losing you again
threaten that.

[♪♪]

Thank you, son.

[♪♪]

Gather what you need.

You leave tomorrow.

[♪♪]

[straining]
Come on, big boy.

Okay, uh, come on.

[panting]

Come on, hook up.

Huh?

Okay.
"Yeah, sure,

- Adam"..
- Hey, Seagull!

You coming out,
or am I coming in?

"Pod will take care
of the rest," my ass.

[machine whirs]

Holy shit, that worked.

Aah!

[metal clinking]

[exhales deeply]

Hey, you.

Hi. Uh...

Whoo-wee!
You good-looking!

- Uh, hey, just, um...
- Huh?

- Just give me... give us...
- [imitates stammering]

You know, a minute.

Just one...
[imitates stammering]

[screaming]

[continues screaming]

My ar...

[laughing]

[sighs]

You tiny little turd.

[chuckles, breathing heavily]

You just cut off
my favorite limb.

[laughs]

I'm so gonna go in there
and make you pay.

Oh, that's... that's
interesting,

because, yeah, I'm wondering
how you're gonna get in here

without that.

Heh.
Huh?

[grunts]

Huh?

[suspenseful music]

I hope you're not
the squeamish type.

[♪♪]

Got to do.

[♪♪]

[gun thuds]

[♪♪]

I was wondering how long
you would take.

[dramatic music]

Nice to see you, too, Araame.

How did you lose your minder?

Did my combat training
finally pay off?

More times than
you can imagine.

He got called off by Val.

How is it that you came
to working with the Rebels?

- You're Military Guild.
- I was.

But Jax believes we're more
than the Genesis Chamber

says we are.

I work with
the best scientists now.

It suits me.

Then I guess we both changed.

[♪♪]

I've thought about you,
you know?

[♪♪]

We had some nice times.

[♪♪]

But your life was
on a set course...

and I like to be free.

[♪♪]

I'm sorry if I hurt you.

You can make it up to me...

[♪♪]

Now.

[♪♪]

Come on, just breathe.

Yeah, just breathe, breathe.

[distorted music]

Do you remember
the first time we met?

Your friend was drunk.

You thought you were
saving the day.

You were so charming.

No, no, it isn't her.

It isn't her.

Do you not remember?

From the moment I saw you,
I wanted you.

You were so alive.

It isn't you.

It isn't you.

All I want,

all I've ever wanted...

is for us to be together.

[♪♪]

I know.

[♪♪]

Please...

don't be afraid of me.

[♪♪]

I'm not.

[♪♪]

It's been so long since
I've seen you.

I'm here now.

[♪♪]

Okay.

I missed you, Lyta.

[♪♪]

[music turns eerie]

There you go.
You're doing great.

Doesn't look like he's doing

much of anything to me.

What the hell?

Down low, dipshit.

Boo.

[laughs]

Oh...

Told you I was coming in.

No freakin' way.

Yes, freakin' way.

You see, if a mother fragger

won't come to the Main Man,

the Main Man will come
to the mother fragger.

[♪♪]

[solemn music]

[♪♪]

[device beeps]

[♪♪]

[technology whirring, beeping]

[♪♪]

No.

So this is where those
Coluan chuckleheads shat out

that green turd all those

thousands of years ago, eh?

What a bunch of D-bags.

So here's the thing... uh...

Seg, here, is doing his best
to also shit out

that green turd as well.

- Right.
- Uh,

so if you could just
hang tight for a little bit,

And we can wrap
this whole thing up.

Yeah, that's not
gonna happen, mate.

It's cute,
but it's not gonna happen.

I'm done waiting, you see.

[scoffing]

I don't want to fight you, man,
not like this.

You...

[suspenseful music]

Agh!

[♪♪]

I thought
I'd never see you again.

[sniffles]

I know.

[sniffles]

I love you.

I've always loved you, Seg.

[tender music]

Stop.

I think we're out of time.

[eerie music]

But we have forever.

We love each other.

No more pain, right?

Wrong.

See, that's the difference
between you and me.

I understand that my pain

is not a problem to be solved.

- Seg?
- You destroyed Colu,

annihilated your own race,

all because of your need
to control everything.

You think that knowledge
is the key to control.

That's why you collect cities.

And what you're
experiencing now...

is fear...

fear of losing everything
that you know,

fear of losing control.

Savor it
before you devolve into nothing.

[shouting]

[grunts]

Stay with me.

[grunts]

Stay with me!

Stay with me!

It's time.
Welcome home, asshole.

[shouting]

[gasps]

You are so soft.

You're so mean.

[screaming]

Adam?

That's not good.

[shouts]

[coughing]

I had that all under control.

[groaning]

Aah!

[both panting]

You did it.

[laughs]

You shat him out.
Adam.

[growls]
Adam, we got to go.

We got to go right now.
Don't you do it.

Now, now!

Don't you dare.

[growling]

So long, bitch.

Frag.

[chuckles]

Well, well, well,

looks like the Craptown Boys
delivered on the goods

after all.

Aah!

[thunder rumbling]

[wind whistling]

Dev?

[thunder booms]

[somber music]

[♪♪]

[grunts]

[♪♪]

- [indistinct chatter]
- You've decided to move forward.

Scout reports indicate
the first of the Sagitari units

are preparing to mobilize.

I'm sending additional
artillery to help our forces

Already positioned
in Dea-Kin Valley.

It's a perfect choke point.

[indistinct shouting]

This will be a massacre.

May Rao have mercy on
us all.

[tense music]

[♪♪]

Hey, would you stop flirting
with me?

I'm on duty.

We've got new orders.

Entire unit's mobilizing
to the Elevator Base Station.

Yes!
We are off the front line.

[♪♪]

And it's about time
our luck changed.

[indistinct chatter]

[♪♪]

[gasps, breathing heavily]

[peaceful music]

[♪♪]

[crying softly]

[♪♪]

[both shout]

Oh! Ah!

Son of a bitch.

Holy shit.

I can't believe it worked.

It worked!

[laughs]

Whoo!

Seg.

Seg?

[wind whistling]

Seg.

[grunts]

Oh, come on, buddy.

You can't die on me now, man.

Come on.

Come on!

You can't die, not now.

Come on.

[gasps]
What happened?

What's going...
[gasping]

Oh, God, I feel weird.

Yeah, riding the Zeta-Beam

ain't for the weak of heart.

No, no, really, man.

I feel like I was dead
or something.
