Legends of Tomorrow (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Marooned - full transcript

In 2166, an immortal
tyrant named Vandal Savage

conquered the world and
murdered my wife and child.

I have assembled an elite team
to hunt him throughout time

and stop his rise to power.

Unfortunately, my plan is opposed

by the body I'd sworn
my allegiance to:

the Time Masters.

In the future, my friends
may not be heroes,

but if we succeed,

they will be remembered as legends.

Previously, on "Legends
of Tomorrow"...



The Time Masters discourage marriage,

but I fell in love and
we had a child, Jonas.

- Maybe we could get a drink?
- Are you asking me out?

Yes. Is that okay?

I think my life's complicated enough

without throwing whatever
this is into the mix.

- This is Star City.
- Yes, Star City, 2046.

It's everything we've ever wanted.

We could live like kings here.

[grunting]

You son of a bitch.

You lay a hand on me
again, you'll burn too.

Go ahead, Jonas.

He's listening.



Hi, Daddy. We miss you.

- And love you.
- And love you.

Anything else you want to say?

Come home soon, Daddy.

[laughing]

Hi, Rip.

Not sure if you got
our last message.

I told Jonas that you
got caught up with work,

but I really thought
you'd be home by now.

London is...

Things have changed.

It's hard to tell what's going on

with so many soldiers and rumors.

I just want to know
you're all right.

Wherever you are,

whenever you are,

I love you, Rip.

Go ahead, Jonas. He's listening.

Hi, Daddy. We miss you.

- And love you.
- And love you.

I'm sorry to interrupt, Captain.

No, uh, not at all. Just,
uh, catching up on work.

What is all this?

Just trying to connect the dots,

find the optimal time to strike at Savage.

And?

And the trail's gone cold.

In order to preserve
the element of surprise,

I wager the best course of action

is to travel further back in time,

but nothing here indicates
where to find him.

Well, perhaps I can help you look.

I've been looking!

I apologize.

It's just the stakes are so high.

I vowed to save my family,
but I'm failing them.

Perhaps I'm not the Time Master they need.

You must be.

You're the only one they have.

- Can't Gideon help us?
- No.

When a timeship returns
to the Vanishing Point

after a mission, its CPU is updated

from the temporal database,

which, given my rogue status,

we are unable to do.

So, what you're saying is

Gideon requires a software update.

Which explains why you've
been holed up in here

for the past week.

- Has it really been a week?
- Mm-hmm.

And some of our teammates
are getting just a tad antsy.

[screaming]

[grunts] I'm done.

Don't mind him.

He's still sore about having to leave 2046.

I'm sore because I was recruited

for my unique ability
to light things on fire.

And now, I'm locked in the one place

where I can't light things on fire:

a spaceship.

Where do you think you're going?

Why?

You gonna clock me in the
head if I don't listen again?

Everything okay with you two?

Yeah, peachy.

Captain, I've just intercepted

a deep space transmission.

It's a distress signal
from the Acheron.

- She's the...
- Flagship of the Time Fleet.

Yes, I know that. Thank you, Gideon.

Systemic malfunction.

I'm stranded, unable to jump.

Controls unresponsive.

This is Captain Eve Baxter

of the timeship Acheron,

requesting critical rescue.

And we care about this chick why?

We don't, but the Acheron's computer

will contain the current
intel on Savage's whereabouts.

Gideon, set a course

for the Acheron's position in deep space.

- Yes, Captain.
- Deep space?

I had no idea we had the ability

to explore the unknown
realms of the galaxy.

- Astonishing.
- No.

What's astonishing is that we're acting

as roadside assistance for
the people who's chasing us.

Doesn't it seem suspicious,

this distress call just
happened to reach us?

How do we know it's not a trap?

We don't, but what we do know

is that Savage's trail has run cold.

And unless Gideon can upload the data

- from the Acheron's computer...
- I'm in.

You are?

The sooner we end Savage, the sooner

- I get back to where I belong.
- Prison?

Any prison on Earth's better
than this one, Professor.

- Gideon.
- Yes, sir.

Engines to full throttle.

Of course, Captain.

[exciting music]

♪
♪

Professor Stein, Mr. Jackson,

would you care to join the boarding party?

A chance for an extra-vehicular

docking maneuver? What
could be more exciting?

Well, I could think of a few things.

Let's get this thing started.

Hey, you think there's something

worth stealing on that ship?

I'm just looking for a change of scenery.

If that's okay with you, boss.

Dr. Palmer.

I leave the ship in your
hands while we're gone.

And I leave him in yours.

♪
♪

I'm having the strangest sensation.

It's like I'm ten years old again.

You do a lot of space
travel as a kid, Professor?

Only in my dreams, after I read

my first issue of "Rick
Starr: Space Ranger."

Space Ranger Stein? Yeah, I don't see it.

I wanted to travel through space,

surviving only by my wits and laser guns.

I even built a rocket
out of cardboard boxes.

What stopped you?

NASA has rather strict guidelines regarding

- nearsightedness.
- And smoking weed.

Gideon, have you been able to link up

to the Acheron's computer?

It appears a self-destruct code

has disabled the ship's
temporal navigation system.

Well, what does that mean?

It's possibly the result of a malfunction.

Just in case, Martin, I'm going to ask you

to remain behind here on the jump ship.

You're telling us if something goes wrong,

egghead's in charge?

Break out the emergency gear.

Space Ranger has a job to do.

Rip? Rip, I need an update.

How about this update?

They've boarded the ship!

- We've been overrun!
- Excellent.

Perhaps you're not taking
this seriously, Miranda.

- Gary?
- Yes, Captain?

Be a dear and open the
portside bulkhead, would you?

Look, I enjoy a suicide mission

- as much as the next person...
- You heard me, Gary.

Yes, ma'am.

What's the plan here?

Rip, you might want to
grab hold of something.

Yes, I am! It's called a gun!

Something else. Do it, please.

Now, Gary.

[screaming]

Gamma-delta hatch opened.

Explosive decompression has
evacuated the time pirates.

Seal hatch, engage time
drive, and punch it.

_

Well done, Lieutenant Coburn.

Well done? She nearly got us killed.

The simulation equivalent, at least.

She demonstrated unconventional thinking

against overwhelming numbers.

You could learn a thing or two from her,

Lieutenant Hunter.

Declan was right.

Save it for your disciplinary hearing.

Hey, hey, hey. We can figure this out.

- We'll get through this together.
- That's just it.

We can't be together.
We knew from the start.

Relationships are strictly forbidden.

There has to be a way to fix this.

I'm sorry.

I need some time to think.

- Captain John Valor.
- Oh.

What happened to Captain Baxter?

She was on her way back
to the Vanishing Point

to imprison us when we made our escape.

But before we could take
control of the Acheron...

She destroyed her time drive
in accordance with protocol.

The same protocol that said

another Time Master
would come to her rescue.

Do I look like a Time Master to you?

You look like the kind of man who'd

throw his grandmother out of an airlock.

Nor am I a Time Master,

so you might as well just let us go.

[laughing]

Correct me if I'm wrong.

You're Rip friggin' Hunter.

I thought you'd be taller.

You never said you were famous.

Infamous.

There was a time when he had men like me

running scared all along the timeline.

Unless you let us return to our ship,

a man named Vandal Savage
will destroy the entire world.

Time Masters and pirates alike.

For once, we're fighting on the same side.

That little slogan should
come with its own shovel.

- Prepare a boarding party!
- Yes, sir.

If I were you, I'd reconsider
your plan, Mr. Valor.

Really?

I gave my crew instructions
to shoot any boarding vessel,

along with the ship launching it.

With the great Rip Hunter on board?

I highly doubt it.

You don't know my crew.

They're iron-willed
and battle-hardened.

The most formidable warriors
to navigate time and space.

Captain's log. Stardate 837.9.

We're awaiting word from the away team

aboard the Acheron.

I hate to break it to you,

but you're no Captain Kirk.

You're Picard.

But Picard was cautious,

pontificating, sort of sexless.

Well, tell that to Vash.

And for the record, Picard
was way hotter than Kirk.

Ooh, Mick had it wrong.

This ship isn't a prison.
It's a torture chamber.

Well, I don't think Mick's
problem is with the ship.

You think it's with me.

You did knock him out
and force him to leave

2046 Star City, which is
like Disneyland for felons.

He'll get over it.

Mick runs hot. He always has.

Once he calms down, everything
will be back to normal.

Yeah, I bet that one sounded
more convincing in your head.

[computer beeping]

I'd like to speak to Acting
Captain Raymond Palmer.

Ooh. Acting Captain. I
like the sound of that.

I'm Captain Palmer. Who are you?

I'm the man holding
your crew hostage.

Captain Palmer, I've
informed Mr. Valor

of the fiery retribution
you'll rain down upon him

if we are not released immediately.

Mm.

[grunts, gasps]

I'm gonna make this real simple.

You surrender your ship, and
I'll drop you off unharmed

at a place and time of your choosing.

- You've got 10 seconds to decide.
- Or else what?

If you want the Waverider for yourself,

there's no way you'll fire on us.

Perhaps, but right now,

I've got my sights set
on your captain's head.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay.

Just give me a chance to negotiate.

Ten... nine...

- Maybe he's bluffing.
- Eight...

- Doesn't feel like it.
- Seven...

You don't know Palmer,

and how he survived the
"Imperiex" onslaught.

[alarm blares]

Uh, Gideon?

Captain Hunter programmed me

to execute certain protocols

in response to specific keywords.

What does that mean in English?

Strap yourselves in.

We are on the move
and preparing to fire.

♪
♪

Great Scott! We're under attack!

- Gideon, who's firing at us?
- Captain's orders.

- Palmer, you idiot!
- No, Captain Hunter's.

Attacking the pirates
who've taken the rest

of the boarding party hostage.

- Pirates?
- What are you doing, Gideon?

Just a warning shot to let
them know we mean business.

My partner's on that ship.

D... Dr. Palmer?

Captain Hunter? Is anyone there?

It's up to you now, Martin.

- Gilbert!
- Yes, sir.

Set a pursuit course and
prepare to return fire.

If you destroy the Waverider,

none of us are getting back home.

Don't worry. I'm only targeting

your ship's life support systems.

Now, if I were the weapons targeting system

on the Acheron...

where would I be?

There's a hull breach in
the aft portion of the ship,

and the pirates have taken
out the telemetry controls.

Gideon, switch to manual.

What are you doing?

If this is anything like a video game,

flying a space ship.

Where are you guys going?

To deal with the hole in the ship.

Make sure Picard here
doesn't get us all killed.

Actually, I'm more like Sulu right now.

Or Han Solo!

Target their thrusters and fire.

I said fire!

Sir, the weapons systems
have been taken offline.

- Manually.
- Who else is on my ship?

Oh, a good captain keeps
his best weapons hidden

from his enemies, Mr. Valor.

Find the saboteur! Bring
him to me, dead or alive.

I guess we'll just have
to follow your friends

till they're out of air.

Shouldn't take too long, given the size

of the hole in the hull.

[hissing]

- Here.
- [electricity whines]

Hail the crew of the Waverider.

Rip, tell your crew to let us board,

and I will happily save them.

But either way, we are
taking the Waverider.

Take the damn deal, Rip.

A captain never surrenders his ship.

Besides, you'll never catch Captain Palmer.

He once outran Kanjar Ro himself.

Who's Kanjar Ro?

Engaging protocol now, Captain.

- Awesome.
- I wasn't talking to you.

♪

What the hell happened to 'em?

We were following a holographic projection

which allowed the Waverider to slip away.

Giving secret commands to your crew.

- Very clever, Captain.
- Mm-hmm.

Throw them in the brig!

We'll find your friends' bodies.

Eventually.

How long can you keep that up for?

Not long.

I'm gonna run out of charge.

Be advised, the breach is
only partially contained.

Guess we know the
bulkhead doors are working.

Too bad we're on the wrong side of them.

[alarm blaring]

Uh oh.

Thanks for stopping by.

We're gonna get you out of here.

- Just hang tight.
- Is there another option?

Don't mean to rush you, Raymond,

but it's getting cold in here.

Normally I wouldn't complain, but...

Can't you just open the doors, Gideon?

The bulkhead is
designed to remain shut

until the breach is sealed.

Well, that's not happening from in here.

How much time do we have until...

We're dead?

Ah!

Ah...

Captain Baxter. I'm Rip Hunter.

I'm here to rescue you.

I doubt it. You walked
straight into a trap.

I will admit that we've encountered

some... unforeseen obstacles.

Right.

But, we're gonna get you
out of here in a second.

Mr. Jackson, will you
please see what we can do

about disabling this force field?

You don't think I've tried that?

But by all means, if
you think this kid

will have better luck.

- Whoa, who you callin' kid?
- I'm sorry.

- I meant criminal.
- Actually, that's me.

All of you. If we ever do get out of here,

the first thing I'll do is take you

to the Vanishing Point to await trial

before the Time Council.

The great Rip Hunter,

but look at you now.

Yes, look at me now.

Helping you break out of a pirate's
brig aboard your own timeship.

I don't want help from
a man who broke his oath,

stole a timeship, and
decided to change history

for his own selfish reasons.

Doesn't make any sense to me.

No, I don't expect it would.

Rip Hunter.

Miranda Coburn.

Those aren't your real names, are they?

No, sir.

And why is that?

Because if our enemies
knew our true identities,

our ancestors and descendants
across the timeline

could be potential targets.

As well as anyone else you might love.

Which is why...

Personal attachments
are expressly forbidden

by the Council of Time Masters.

And grounds for immediate
discharge from service.

Do either of you deny
that you were conducting

an illicit affair in violation
of this council's rules?

In that case,

I motion that we adjourn
this disciplinary hearing

for one hour to afford you

the opportunity to consider your response.

Though I sincerely doubt there's any answer

you can provide that
will prevent this tribunal

from discharging you both
from the Time Masters.

I suppose this feels like
a day at the beach for you?

If I had to pick a way to die,

freezing wouldn't be the worst.

What's it like?

Dying?

I imagine you've got a unique perspective.

You know, it's funny.

I mean, you'd expect it to be terrifying,

just panic and fear.

What'd you feel?

I guess lonely.

Yeah.

Like everybody I loved
was a million miles away.

I mean, I don't like you, but
at least I'm not dying alone.

Closest I ever came to dying was, uh...

the day I met Mick.

- Why does that not surprise me?
- It wasn't like that.

It was my first day in juvie.

I was 14, and the smallest
kid in there by far.

Some of the older kids
wanted to make sure I knew it.

So they jumped me.

I fought back, but one of them had a shiv

and I figured that was it

until Mick stepped in.

And they didn't mess with me after that.

He's been standing up for me ever since.

Let's just hope he's standing
up for Rip and Jax now.

Who else is gonna take on those pirates?

Good luck.

Gideon, open the hatch.

- [sighs]
- Sorry, Captain.

I can't jerry-rig the door open.

Don't worry, kid.

It's not your fault. It's his.

In case you've forgotten, Mr. Rory,

you volunteered to be part
of this boarding party.

I volunteered to get away from my partner,

who hasn't been acting like my partner

ever since you fed his
head with fairy tales

about saving the world.

Your partner has a mind of his own,

Mr. Rory, which is more
than I can say of you.

Are you saying that I'm dumb, Captain?

Let's pretend, just for a
moment, that you're the captain,

stuck in the brig while
the rest of your crew

slowly perish on their damaged ship.

Now, what would you do to get
yourself out of that predicament?

Oh, no brilliant ideas? Really?

Why am I not in the least bit surprised?

Shut your mouth, now!

Okay, let's all just take a deep breath.

Or what? You'll punch me in the face,

or burn me alive, or employ

some other barbaric form of violence?

That's why you recruited me, isn't it?

To hit, hurt, and burn?

No, I recruited you
because you and your partner

were a package deal.

- What?
- I'm sorry, Mr. Rory.

But a serial arsonist
was never part of my plan

to stop Savage, much less
one with the IQ of meat.

I didn't mean to be so blunt.

If I could just have a moment of quiet,

then perhaps I can think of a way

of getting us off this pirate ship.

I think I just beat you to it.

Can anyone hear me?

What the hell do you think you're doing?

Me and the pirates are
gonna have a little parlay.

- Do not do this, Rory.
- Too late.

What do you want?

I want to speak to Captain Valor.

- About what?
- About a timeship.

- I am warning you.
- Shut up!

I may have the IQ of meat,

but I know how to cut a deal.

Without me to keep him in check,

Mick can be a scary guy.

Agreed.

Hate to break it to you, but

even if we make it out of here alive,

you're still gonna have

He's not coming back.

Man, I can't believe Rory sold us out.

No, actually I can.

But still, man.

What choice did he have?

The crew left on the Waverider
are most probably dead by now,

and God knows what
happened to Professor Stein.

It's no wonder that Mr. Rory
chose to save his own skin.

And what I can I do about it?

I'm stuck in a pirate's brig and I've lost
both my ship and the loyalty of my crew.

You're one to talk about loyalty.

Oh, but I am, Captain Baxter,

and not because I pledged an oath

to serve as a Time Master,

but a long time ago, I made
a far more important oath.

When you call me a failure,
Captain Baxter, you're right.

'Cause I failed both my wife and my son.

For betraying the Time Council

I have absolutely no regrets.

But failing to save my family?

That is something for which

Captain Hunter? We're in position.

- Captain Hunter?
- Yes, yes!

I'm a little bit busy right now!

Be that as it may, we've run out of time.

Captain, the plan.

We're waiting for your signal.

- Gilbert?
- Yes, sir?

I need you to listen to me very,

very carefully.

[alarm blares]

[screaming]

Rip! We're good!

Explosive decompression has
evacuated the time pirates.

Thank you, Gilbert.

Please hail the Waverider.

Waverider, this is Captain Hunter.

We've regained control
of the Acheron.

What's your status?

What are you gonna do, Snart?

I suppose it wouldn't be very fair

if I arrested you after
you reclaimed my ship

and apprehended John Valor for me.

Happy to help out a fellow Time Master.

Even though I don't deserve that title.

I was wrong. You've proven that today.

You're still one hell of a Time Master.

Which is why I'm giving you this.

- What's that?
- Gilbert?

Using the Vanishing Point's
most current timeline data,

I calculate a 99.8% probability

that you will find Vandal Savage

in Harmony Falls,
Oregon, in March of 1958.

Thank you, Captain Baxter.

I still don't understand
why you're doing all this.

Before all this started, I
don't think I would've, either.

We protect history, safeguard time itself.

There is no higher calling.

It's called love.

Rip. Rip.

Rip!

Look at me, Rip.

[sighs]

Please don't be mad at me.

Oh, no, I'm not mad at you!

I... I was going to resign.

I know and I couldn't let you.

This has always been your dream.

Yes, but you are so much
better at this than me.

I... I can't understand why you would...

why you'd give all that up.

It's funny, because you're
the one who made me realize

that I could never be a Time Master.

I found something with you,

something wonderful.

I found love.

That thing that the Time Masters
always taught us to hide from,

but they were wrong, Rip.

Love's no threat.

It's beautiful, and powerful,

and once you know it,

love changes everything.

Like it changed me

and that's why I have to resign,

because I could never belong to something

that turns its back on the truth.

Suddenly my chosen profession
seems so terribly unimportant.

No.

The world needs the Time Masters

and the Time Masters, most assuredly,

need Rip Hunter.

- [groans]
- My only wish is that one day,

when you're off traveling space and time,

you'll realize what I have, and understand

why I'm doing what I'm doing.

I hope you think of me when that day comes.

I will...

because I'll be with you.

Hey.

I was just looking for you. I...

How are you feeling?

Good. Yeah.

Turns out I bounce back pretty
quickly from hypothermia.

In fact, I managed to
remember some of the things

you said to me when I was almost dead.

You were
wrong, B-T-W.

You don't need me. You don't need anybody.

I mean, you're pretty amazing

That's... surprising.

Okay.

I'll say it.

Why don't we just drop
him off back in 2016?

Because my sister lives in 2016.

And your sister, and your wife.

So what exactly are we talking about here?

Leaving Rory in the brig
until we take down Savage?

No, no, no, no, the brig is unsuitable

for long-term incarceration.

Leaving him free run of
the ship is not an option.

I'll handle it.

By handling it, you mean murder?

I said I'll handle it.

I told you that'll be
the last time you hit me.

You were right.

That the plan?

Take me out in the middle of nowhere,

where no one can find the body?

I wish there were some other way, Mick,

but you're dangerous.

- A liability to the team.
- Team?

You and I were a team!

What happened to you?

People change.

You think you're some kind of hero,

but deep down you're still the same

You haven't got the guts.

You want to kill me?

Kill me.

Only one of us is

You're right.
