Mila in the Multiverse (2023–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Episode #1.5 - full transcript
We have to go back
to where the two Verônicas are.
PREVIOUSLY
- It's an artificial insect.
- The size of a fly!
- It transmits image and sound.
- Perfect!
Operator Zero may
no longer be able to carry out his role,
but I will fulfill my purpose
in this operation.
You guys, it's my mom!
They have her locked up.
We need to do something.
If the fire is overloaded,
it can get out of control.
It could create enough energy
to destroy everything,
to rip the universe to shreds.
If you don't do as I say,
your daughter pays the price.
And that's not a possibility.
It's a certainty.
She said it could destroy the universe.
This doesn't make sense.
Who would risk that?
Verônica isn't risking anything.
Destroying the entire universe
is exactly what she wants.
MILA IN THE MULTIVERSE
That's one fewer duplicate, at least.
Ludmila, is it true that the Operators
want to destroy the whole universe?
I think so. I think that's their plan.
The end of the universe? The world
will cease to exist? I'll cease to exist?
Oh, my God! But I had
so much to live for, so many plans…
Guys, the Institute!
No more Institute.
No more Felipe!
I really messed up. I have to talk to him.
No, Vinícius. Now's not the time.
Yes it is! It's the last time. Ever!
That's true.
Soon, time itself will cease to exist and
it'll never be time for anything again.
No, that can't be.
I'll stop existing, just like that?
Poof! Just like that?
No.
The universe won't end.
We won't let that happen.
You're right.
We have to do something. And I know what.
What, Vinícius? Tell us.
We need to tell a responsible adult.
Professor Domênico is the adult
I trust the most here at the Institute.
He'll know what to do.
Absolutely not. We can't tell Domênico.
Verônica isn't Verônica anymore
and we saw Operator Bóris.
So?
Anyone could be an Operator.
They just need one of those little rings.
We can't trust anyone anymore.
But I know who we can trust.
And she'll know how to save the universe.
It worked.
Did that signal appear again?
We saw movement
in a third-quadrant universe.
What about the furnace's
structural integrity?
- Operator 293…
- Mila?
Good, she's noticed the fly.
Careful, that's fragile…
You did it…
Hey, my insect couldn't move its head.
- You improved my design.
- …the prisoner's results.
A type of locator that…
"Run. Copper tunnel.
I'm sabotaging the furnace.
Goodbye. I love you."
- Copper tunnel?
- Copper tunnel?
Any idea what that means?
I think I've heard of this.
It was a tunnel used
in the building of the Institute.
But, even if it's still there,
it hasn't been used for ages.
The teachers talk about it as a legend.
If Ludmila's mom says to use it to escape,
I don't think it's a legend.
- Yeah…
- Don't worry. We'll find the tunnel.
No, that's not it.
She said "goodbye."
She's sabotaging the furnace.
She thinks she won't survive.
But she's doing it to stop Verônica.
I know, but it's suicide.
No, there must be another way.
What if there's not?
What?
Your mom is smart, Mila.
If she says it's dangerous
and that you should run away,
don't you think you should run away?
Pierre, hold on. What are you saying?
You don't know where the tunnel is, but…
Hang on, you're telling me to run
and abandon everything?
There are many universes
and many Milas in these universes.
Millions, billions. Lots and lots.
But there's only one Mila
exactly like you.
- What about us, Pierre?
- There's only one of us, too.
I know, I know.
But Mila has a chance we don't have.
I just don't want you to die.
Thank you.
But never say anything that crazy again.
Every life is important.
Every universe is important.
And I am not running away.
Cool, but what do we do?
We talk to my mom.
What's going on?
No!
Go back to work.
I've finished.
You're finished?
- We've lost it.
- Shh!
It's dead.
Poor Tatiana.
Wait, you named the fly Tatiana?
Do you name everything?
Leave me alone.
Guys, we have to find out what's going on.
Huh? Didn't you hear?
They're going to the furnace control room.
- Huh? How do you know?
- Verônica said so, I heard her.
But how?
With all that noise, how could you
understand what she said?
I live in infinite universes
at the same time.
Everything I hear
is through lots of noise.
You're amazing, Pierre.
Everyone hide. Hurry.
- Do you think that Bóris was real or fake?
- He wasn't wearing that ring.
What if he took it off?
Guys, real or fake, we can't get caught.
Come on.
Guys, over there…
What's she doing?
- Trying to deactivate the furnace.
- Yeah, the fire does look weaker.
It's going out.
Are you trying to destroy it?
Of course not.
- Do as I say!
- I know what I'm doing.
For the fire to start overloading,
first it needs to reach
a rarified low-energy state.
You can inspect my calculations
if you don't believe me.
Operator Zero.
The eternal fire's output
is weaker than we expected.
Check the furnace.
Yes, sir.
When Verônica realizes what she's doing…
Don't worry. There's still time.
The fire's still stable.
Okay. How long do we have?
Like, 30 minutes?
So what do we do?
Hey, where's Pierre?
Operator 435, come with me.
Operator Zero asked us
to check the furnace.
It seems the fire's getting weaker.
Focus, Ludmila.
Pierre will show up,
but right now you need to focus.
Okay. The moment she disables the furnace,
we distract Verônica.
- And then you save your mom.
- No, that's a terrible idea!
But it was your idea.
You think I have good ideas?
- We've got a problem.
- Don't scare us! Where were you?
Okay, what problem?
We've got a million problems, Pierre.
This one's worse. They're coming.
Anyone got a spool of beryllium wire?
- A spool of what? Of course not.
- I do. Hang on.
Here.
Everyone duck.
What did you do?
The furnace heat combined
with beryllium wire…
creates a force field.
So incompetent!
What's going on? No, Elis!
The furnace.
To the control room, now. Go!
You tricked me.
Even if you save this universe,
you're dead now.
Thirty-seven.
- Zero, I…
- Silence!
Your stubborn disobedience
almost cost us everything.
Fooled by a mere Institute professor?
How could a dirty duplicate
fool an Operator?
You're an embarrassment.
No one wants to eradicate
duplicates more than I do.
I followed the original plan.
I stuck to the Operators' true mission.
I'm not the one obsessed
with this useless Elis.
You have no inkling
of what our mission is.
Enough! Your Atlas.
Now.
You're no better than the dirt
infecting the multiverse.
Lock them up in the greenhouse!
Keep this Elis alive.
She still could prove useful.
Where's Pierre?
Okay, we gotta go back there.
My mom could be killed.
No! They have a million weapons
and all we have is Otávio.
Don't underestimate Otávio.
So I should just chill and wait
while my mom dies, you mean?
No, you're right. We have to go back.
Juliana, what are you doing
outside your dorm at this hour?
Going for a stroll.
Going for a stroll…
Are you alone?
None of your business, but yeah.
None of my business?
Back to your dorm, right now!
You know what, Bóris?
I'm not really tired. Bye!
Juliana, where do you think you're going?
Juliana, get back here now!
Come on, Pierre. And stay close!
But why the greenhouse?
They've tied up your mom.
They want her alive.
- I'm going in.
- No, you'll get caught too.
Look at how many Operators there are.
There's nothing we can do now.
Well, it's too dangerous here.
We have to go.
Let's go back and wait for Juliana.
Operator 875.
Give me a status report.
No oscillations
in the peripheral universe.
- Should we keep monitoring it?
- Yes.
Elis duplicates always return
to their home universe.
She should be back at any moment.
Let's initiate protocol three.
Any other inter-universe traveler
is to be eliminated immediately.
Is that clear?
- I'm going to look for Juliana.
- No, Bóris might catch you!
What about the Operators?
I have to do something.
I'm not just sitting around.
You scared me, girl!
Ju, I'm so glad you're okay.
I was worried.
Stop! Just because I kinda like you
doesn't mean you can do that.
And my name's Juliana.
Kinda?
Yeah, kinda. And that's why
you must not go back to your universe.
I've told you, I'm only going back
when my mom's okay...
You don't understand.
You absolutely cannot
go back to your universe.
If you do, the Operators will kill you.
Did you hear what I said?
Why are you smiling?
No, I heard you.
I'm smiling because you care about me.
Okay. I kinda care about you.
Mom?
I don't even know if you can hear this.
I saw them take you
to the greenhouse today.
Do you have your POLLEN?
Is it, like… hidden?
Mom?
I haven't found out what's going on yet.
But I'm so close.
I was so happy I saw you today.
I couldn't believe it.
I'll get you out of there, okay?
I promise.
Please work.
Mom?
Mom?
Mila?
I don't even know if you can hear this.
I miss you so much.
I saw them take you
to the greenhouse today.
No. No! What greenhouse?
I'm so close, Mom. I...
I miss you so much…
I promise we're
getting out of here together, okay?
Mila?
Mila? Pay attention.
I'm not in the same universe as you.
Do you understand?
I'm in another universe.
Mila.
