Ocean Girl (1994–1997): Season 2, Episode 11 - Sabotage - full transcript

Jason takes Neri and Mera swimming off the ORCA platform. Mick finds out and heads out on a jetski, he falls off and must be rescued by the girls. Neri helps Mick with his reading, he in turn joins the others in keeping Neri and Mera a secret.

Doctor, the men need rest.

How much longer are we going
to keep searching?

Until we find those
two girls again.

Is it possible the Bates
took the children

back to ORCA with them?

And how would they get them on board
without passes or uniform?

No.

They must have slipped off
on the way.

Which means they’re still
out here somewhere.

Swimming?

You’re not serious.



Please, Jason,

we are tired of wetting down
in the little room.

We wish for the sea.

We miss Charley.

Yeah, but if you go off
with him,

those UBRI creeps
could jump you

at any time.

Or else, they may track
you back to the island.

And that’d really be curtains.

Then we call Charley
here to ORCA.

Brett?

Yeah, why not?

I mean, if it’s just
around the pontoon,

they’d be safe enough,
wouldn’t they?



I guess some of us could go
with them to make sure.

Then we do it.

Just see Charley
in your mind.

Call.

You hear?

Yes.

He hear you also.

Keep calling.

Charley comes.

He’s heading straight
towards us.

Hello, Winston.

I thought I’d drop by
and see if you needed help.

I don’t know if you’ll find
this work very interesting.

Oh, I think everything
you do is interesting.

What’s that?

We don’t know.

Its a signal we occasionally pick up
on Charley’s frequency.

What causes it?

I don’t know.

But next time it happens,

maybe we should find out.

I’ll try and get a directional
fix on it.

You know, if there is any
record of where

these girls might
be hiding,

the most likely place would be
in Dr. Bates’ original

computer files.

There could be back-up files

deep within HELEN

that I may be able
to retrieve.

When?

Well, I have unlimited access

to the computer room.

I can start immediately.

Good.

Ahh... Liselle?

Yes, Dr. Hellegren.

In the meantime, you continue
to work on this Byrne boy.

One way or another
we must locate these girls

as soon as possible.

Yes, doctor.

Start talking.

I’m not blind, you know.

Bates and Vanessa just
disappear,

and the rest of them
just clam up

whenever I’m around.

So what’s going on?

No one tells me anything.

What are you two
doing here?

Just passing time.

Pass it somewhere else.

Out!

Close the door behind you.

I want the Bates laboratory
back-up files.

Starting from day one.

Those files are classified.

I cannot comply.

We’ll see about that.

Listen, one word to
my mom about

what you get up to with
HELEN,

and you’d be banned from using her
ever again.

- Is that what you want?
- No!

Well?

It’s no big deal, I guess.

Just that they’re taking
the girls out

for a swim around the pontoon.

And I wasn’t going to be told, huh?

Well, they’re all
in for a big surprise.

Come on!

Ahh!

We don’t want you going
passed that boye.

Alright?

Get out of it!

The girls are down there,
you idiot!

Didn’t you think I’d
find out, huh?

Kiss this, morons!

Look out!

Ha, ha, ha.

Look.

What were you doing
without a life jacket, idiot!

Can’t you read?

Would have served you right
if you had drowned, you dork.

And you probably would have
if it hadn’t been for Neri and Mera.

Big tough Mick Byrne.

Saved by a couple of girls.

I bet that grates.

You better get changed.

- Did you have to rub his nose in it?
- He deserved it.

Maybe.

But it’s still inportant
to keep him on-side.

Now he’s really
cheesed off,

who knows what he might do?

Mick,

I’ve got something
I’ve decided to tell you.

But don’t say anything
to any of the others.

Humm?

I’m not really here
just to help my uncle.

I’ve been working
with the authorities to try

and find a girl who
was abducted.

What?

They’ve traced her to some
of these kids on ORCA

You wouldn’t happen to know
anything about it, would you?

It’s very important that
we find her.

And I’d personally be
very grateful to anyone

who could help us.

Attention: Michael Byrne,

report to the Commander
on the Bridge.

I’d better go.

Yeah. Just keep in mind
what I’ve said.

Yeah.

Maintenance informs me that
the jet-ski was damaged.

You should never have been
on it in the first place.

What were you doing out there?

Mum, I was just trying to
have some fun.

Yes.

That’s all you ever want to do,
isn’t it, Michael

Well, this is the last straw.

Your fun days are over.

But mom…

As of now, you are going to
concentrate on serious things,

starting with your reading
problem.

I had this sent over from the Mainland.

You’ve got to be kidding, mum!

It’s a little kid’s book.

I can’t have the others
seeing me read this.

Well then go find someplace
quiet

where you won’t be noticed.

When I get off duty this
afternoon,

I want evidence you’ve had
your head down,

working.

Is that clear?

Mum, the girls will go crazy
cooped up in this cabin.

All right. I suppose
it’s okay if Neri takes

a short walk,

because people are used to
seeing her around.

But I’m afraid Mera
has to stay put.

We don’t want to ris
people getting curious.

I’m sorry.

We’re starting to get a bearing
on that signal,

that’s causing interference.

That’s strange.

It stopped.

As though someone has
just turned it off.

Did you get a fix on
the direction?

Only general.

Direction east,

between 16 and 17 degrees
latitude.

That’s interesting.

That’s just off-shore
of Neri’s island.

Coincidence?

Could be.

But I thk I should go out there
and take a look around.

By myself.

I still can’t get
over it.

Us knowing some
real aliens.

Like, I’ve seen them on
the videos before,

but they’ve all got these
big fangs...

Some other time, Rocky.

There’s something I have to do.

I still can’t believe it.

Us knowing some
real aliens.

Like, I’ve seen them
on the videos before...

but they’ve all got these
big fangs and tentacles...

Vanessa.

I look for Jason,
you have seen?

I don’t know.

Try the rec room,
maybe.

This unit’s broken.

Let’s take it down to engineering.

I repeat.

Those files are
classified.

Access denied.

You hear?

I’ve tried every way known
to get around

the security block
and it still refuses.

Not even Byrne herself
could

call them up.

Is there anything else...

No!

Yes...

But there are risks involved.

I’d have to get right into the
computer’s central intelligence

and force it to override.

What if it won’t?

That’s the problem.

If it continued,

and I pushed it too far,

these 3000’s are delicately
balanced.

I could virtually
blow its brain

out of existance.

Are you making any
progress with the Byrne kid?

I think he might be
close to talking.

Good.

Just remember,

we’re stuck here here

until UBRI gets those
two girls in his hands.

No!

Don’t touch it.

Give it to me.

Oh yeah, real funny,
right?

I bet you make sure
all the others

get a big laugh out of this.

No.

Sure. So why are you
grinning like that?

I like the picture.

Pretty.

Are you telling me they
haven’t told you about me?

I’ll save them the trouble.

I’m an idiot, all right?

A dummy.

I can’t understand
a single word.

Not even in a stupid
little kid’s book like this.

Mick?

Can’t you understand me,
you freak?

I can’t read.

Neither can I.

I told you Liselle
was up to something.

She and her uncle are phonies.

They’re working for UBRI.

And they’re after the girls.

They think Mick will cave in
and talk.

Well, what are we
waiting for?

Find him!

You were lucky, sister.

At least you didn’t have a lot
other kids hanging around,

calling you “moron”
and “stupid”.

And every time I got shoved into
some new crummy boarding school,

I’d get it all over again.

In the end,
I worked out ways of faking it

so no one could tell.

But I knew I couldn’t read.

Never stinking will.

You cannot know that.

What are you talking about?

Don’t you think I’ve tried?

But you have never believed.

You’re crazy.

What difference would that make?

My sister could not swim
with Charley,

until she believed
she could.

You also can do more
than you think.

All you have learned must
be somewhere

in your head.

Maybe you can find it
if you just believe

you can.

Try it.

Look at the words again

and believe.

- Anyone?
- No.

Guys, have you seen him?

Nothing.

Wait.

We hear...

the whales
sing their songs.

Then we lie quietly...

I can read.

I don’t understand.

How did you do it?

You did it, Mick.

You believed.

I only point the way.

We’ve got some news for you.

- That girl you’ve been hanging
around with is a UBRI spy. - Yeah

It’s crunch time, Mick.

You’re either with them
or you’re with us.

What’s it going to be?

Hello.

Access denied.

For the last time,
I’m ordering you to override

that command.

If you don’t response,

I will overload your
entire system.

Do you understand?

You will cease to exist.

Access denied.

Access denied.

Hi.

Hi.

You want to hear something?

Yes.

I know who you’re working for.

And you can tell them all
from me to get lost.

Yes!

What’s going on?

I don’t know.

You now have 30 seconds.

If you refuse to obey,

your circuits are going to
start popping like fireworks

Well?

Access denied.

Access denied.

Access denied.

Give them to me.

Blast you!

Got any power on seven?

Nothing..

Second,
activate emergency power!

Code red!

Something’s happened to HELEN!

When can we return
to full power?

The control of the main generator
is linked directly to HELEN.

So, I’m afraid it’s auxillary power
for vital functions

only until she’s operational
again.

Unfortunately, I don’t think
that’s going to happen, Commander.

Memory banks are shot
and the circuitry’s

completely blown.

Let’s get back to the Bridge
and discuss our options.

To be quite honest,
I don’t think we have any.

The only thing to do is to bring in

a whole new central
computer.

This thing is nothing more
than high-tech junk!

I’m sorry, Froggy.

She’s not finished yet.

You heard what they said.

I know HELEN better
than any of them.

And I’m not going to give up.

They might think
she’s had it,

but I’m going to get her back.

And then the lights
and everything just went out.

It looks like we’re going to
have to be on limited power

until the new computer’s
installed.

I’m sorry I missed out on
all the excitement.

How was the island?

Anyone there?

Completely deserted.

No sign of anyone at all.

You hungry?

Yeah.

No wonder you couldn’t find

the girls./

They’ve been here on ORCA,

right under our noses
all along.

Are you certain about this?

Yes, Doctor.

I saw them both with my
own eyes.

On board ORCA.

How can we get hold of them there?

All we have to do is watch them
and stay in contact.

They cannot stay in there forever.

Sooner or later they will
have to come out.

And when they do,

I will be waiting for them.
