Return to Jupiter (1997–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Shipwreck - full transcript
Okay, Michael, we've got 45
minutes to get to the crash site.
Just follow me down.
Hurry up and tie off, Michael.
Think about it, Gerard, if we
break our necks they'll all die.
If we don't make it to the
survivors they'll die anyway.
Now move!
Earth Station II, we've
begun our descent.
Acknowledged, rescue team.
You've got 40 minutes
before they run out of air.
It gets worse, there's a
solar storm heading your way.
You now have 20 minutes
to find those tourists.
Come on, Michael,
you're slowing me down.
I'm feeling dizzy.
Don't look down!
They know we'll
never get to the crash site.
They're using us, can't you see?
We're expendable!
You're talking nonsense!
They sent us in
because they know the truth!
We're just experiments!
Michael, no!
Mission control, come in.
We need help!
Commander Dent, come in!
The rescue mission comes first.
It's life or death for those five people.
There's no room for sentimentality.
It's okay, Michael, hang in there.
I'll get you down.
It's okay, Michael, I've got you!
We're gonna fall!
We're both gonna die!
We're gonna die!
No you're not, you're safe, relax!
There's nothing we can do for them now.
Now, Michael, just give me your arm.
Come here, I've got you.
Relax, I'll get you down.
Pity.
He showed promise.
Virtual reality sequence terminated.
Of all the stupid, idiotic stunts.
What were you trying to prove?
He played his part as instructed.
It's pressure sickness.
I thought you'd recognize it.
Obviously not.
Hardly a spectacular result, is it?
I can do better, I
just need another chance!
But you're already dead,
not to mention the
rest of the body count.
Mark his file to be reviewed.
But that's not fair!
Gerard will have to learn
not to abandon his mission
for the sake of one
expendable individual.
Don't look at me like that, Sam.
Whenever you give me that
look I get a lecture.
I was hoping you'd
be with us on Icarus.
But if you wanna be an
ensign, little brother,
you're gonna have to lift your game.
I hate it when she
calls me little brother.
And why didn't you tip me off
about that stupid sickness?
Come on, I did everything
except foam at the mouth.
One week back and you managed to wreck
six months of training.
Lighten up, will ya?
You gotta admit, I was pretty convincing.
This job is important to me.
I'm sorry, okay?
It'll take us 11 days to get past Mars.
We use gravitational deflection
and pass beyond the asteroid belt.
So, that makes it nine weeks
and four days 'til we
see our parents again,
and they spoil us absolutely rotten.
Abe, your maths is as
bad as your chemistry.
And you can forget about
being showered with presents
because you won't be going at all
unless you get your assignments done.
Nothing's gonna stop
me being on that ship.
But all the Ed Unit has
to do is mark you down
as a failure and you'll be
left behind for summer school.
The day hasn't dawned when
that electronic egg-head
can outsmart Abraham Spence.
Not when the brainiest
kid in the entire station
has agreed to help me with
my chemistry assignment.
No way!
Find yourself another brain.
Come on, Anna.
If I don't get onto Jupiter
my mom's gonna be really disappointed.
You don't want that, do you?
Why should this be my problem?
You've been slacking off all term.
Why'd you leave it to the last minute?
'Cause all my other
minutes have been filled
doing interesting stuff.
Come on.
I'll do anything you ask, I promise.
Anything?
If I eat it you better help me
with my chemistry assignment.
Go on, dare me.
You haven't got the nerve.
That's disgusting!
Kumi, he actually did it.
Nothing Abe could do would surprise me.
You're more gross than Kingston was.
If only he hadn't decided
to become a musical genius on Earth.
You'll pay for that!
You promised to help me!
So, how was it?
It was a disaster.
You failed?
How could you do that?
But, but now you'll
be a boring civilian.
Where's the perks in that?
Abe, will you shut-up?
Shut-up, Abe.
What did I do?
- You exist!
Gerard.
I know the perfect stress relief.
Let's go for that spin.
No, not while Dent's
got me marked for review.
Come on.
You've been raving about that
machine of yours for ages.
You can teach me how to drive.
Hey, nobody touches the
Zodiac except me, all right?
Please, Gerard.
All right, let's go.
Hang on, wait for me!
Hey, two words, termite,
and they both start with S.
Summer school.
Victimization, that's what it is.
You guys'll be halfway to Ganymede
and I'll still be stuck
here with lunatic Ed Unit.
Well, if you'd finish your assignment
you won't have to stay.
Be a lot easier if Kumi would hack into
the Ed Unit and fix my grades.
I heard that!
And Abraham Spence, may I remind you
that unless your chemistry
grades are satisfactory
your brain is mine for the next month.
Dear.
So many equations, so little time.
One day I'm gonna
fuse that thing's brain.
Spared no expense, I see.
We go straight out and
straight back, that's it.
Mind your head.
It won't look like much now
but just wait 'til I'm finished,
and don't touch anything.
And mind the upholstery, please.
You mean this stuff
here between the holes?
Are you absolutely
sure this thing can fly?
This thing doesn't just fly...
It transcends.
So, no white knuckles this time.
A year in boarding
school can do weird things.
I've never been so bored.
Yeah, she even took a VR
course in ion drive fighters.
It was her birthday present for me.
So, there's nothing you
can do that'll scare me.
Well, I think you better hang on then.
Tether poles.
Did you know the female
spider eats the male spider?
Who cares?
Now, I figure that if I choose
one of the really difficult experiments
I'll get more marks.
Are you sure that's wise?
More marks, more chance
of getting off this dump.
Abraham Spence.
I do urge you to attempt
one of the more elementary projects.
Mr. Ed, how am I meant
to fulfill my destiny
as a genius if you keep
on holding me back?
I think I'm gonna need more equipment.
You guys better be impressed.
I've risked my career for this.
There it is.
Icarus, straight off the production line.
Class A cargo cruiser fitted
with twin reactor ion drives.
It goes like stink.
You've got to admit,
it's pretty impressive.
So, Michael, you still
wanna be an eco engineer?
New colonies are always
gonna need air and water.
Yeah, but you gotta get there first,
and one day I'm gonna be
driving one just like her.
Okay, think it's time we
made ourselves scarce, guys.
As soon as I have a turn.
No, you can't, there's
still a few wrinkles
that require a master's touch.
I can handle it.
Well yeah, she's done the training,
straight As all the way.
There's ore carriers due, though.
Sounds like an excuse to me.
You're not gonna disappoint me.
Okay, okay, but no fancy stuff.
And be careful when you...
Kumi, slow down, please!
Kumi, ease back!
I'm taking over!
- No chance!
Yeah, look, I think he should.
That's enough, please!
Come on, slow down!
Come on, Kumi!
Kumi, stop it!
Will you pair relax?
Pull back!
Quickly!
I didn't do anything.
You fly like a maniac.
It just died!
I told you to ease off.
I hope the thing's
still under warranty.
Hey, I can fix it, all right?
You sure you know what you're doing?
I built it, didn't I?
Maybe try the red wire.
Amazing!
The potential of the human brain.
And to think, we only use 1/3 of it!
Well, I'm sure I use all of mine.
Trouble is, if we do only use a third,
what if the designers of
Icarus miss something?
What if there's a catastrophe
just waiting to happen?
But they haven't thought of it yet
because it's hidden away
in the 2/3 of their brain they don't use!
In spite of my objections
the fleet are seen fit to
reinstate your command.
You've been given the cargo ship, Icarus.
That's wonderful news, sir.
But there will be a
handful of passengers.
Good, provide some
intellectual stimulation.
Children.
Good.
What?
Rugrats?
Well, now that Ganymede
is fully operational
you wouldn't want to keep them
from their families, would you?
Why is there a trolley
blocking the corridor?
I'm sure you have a
very good explanation.
It's for a school project.
I intend to get a distinction.
If memory serves me correctly,
the one thing you're able
to distinguish yourself in is trouble.
I wouldn't rely too
much on your memory.
We only use 1/3 of our brain.
You probably knew that,
except it's hidden away
in the 2/3 of your brain you don't use.
Flight Control to Commander Dent.
Commander Dent.
Maybe it's the ignition circuits,
or maybe it's one of the servos.
Or maybe you
should ask for your money back.
Or maybe you should shut-up.
You're the one that gave
up flying, remember?
I think we should call in.
And have Dent find out?
Well...
Anyone know the number
of a good salvage crew?
Very funny, Michael.
Commander Dent.
Control's passed it on to us.
We've got a runaway.
And this'll make your day.
Point of impact, docking bay into Icarus.
I want the Icarus moved to safety,
and where's Ghrobak?
Daily exercises.
Well, find him.
That's my ship and if
anything happens to it.
I've got one of those niggles.
Now, this isn't your average niggle,
this is serious aggravation.
Where'd my headset?
And it's not your ship yet.
Excuse me, someone tell
me why that thing's
trying to obliterate my ship?
Looks like meteor damage.
So, move the Icarus to safety.
Well, can't do, ion drives are down.
So, unless you're feeling
fitter than I am...
There's another craft out there
sitting right in the flight path.
And if they collide will that deflect
the ore carrier away from my ship?
Possibly.
So the day hasn't
been a total disaster.
It was a joke.
It's Gerard's!
Point it over here, Michael.
Look, I don't care how
much trouble you're in,
it's time to contact the station.
Don't panic, will you?
We'll be out of here in no time.
Okay, try it now.
Yes, we're online.
Michael's right, it is time to panic.
No.
How much worse can a bad day get?
Plenty.
It just had to be you.
Gerard, what on earth do
you think you're doing?
Ha, there might be a way.
I'm sorry to let the cat
out of the bag, Gerard,
but I know that you sometimes piggyback
on the ore carriers.
He does what?
So, with your help, we might be able
to deflect the carrier
away from my Icarus.
He won't say yes.
My brother's not that stupid.
I thought you had schoolwork to do.
But...
Put a full stop
after that "but" and move it.
And I mean now.
I need an answer, Gerard.
Do you think you can do it?
Of course I can do it,
I've done it before, sort of.
How many times?
Eight.
A couple.
Once, actually.
Hitching a ride on an ore
carrier's a bit different
to blasting it off course.
Well, what do you guys think?
I mean, it's your necks, too.
Well, we got you into this mess.
And it'll get Dent off your back.
Thanks.
Okay, but there's one small problem.
The Zodiac's engines, there's
a small technical hitch.
Well, can you fix it?
You're forgetting
who you're talking to.
How long 'til the carrier reaches them?
Sam?
Okay, you've got 10 minutes.
No sweat.
If I could just bypass the dead circuit.
Okay, Kumi, edge it forward,
The right leg, slowly.
Five minutes.
Easy, with time to spare.
I know this thing like
the back of my hand.
Okay, tell me what you want.
Eight degrees deflect nodular knee.
Nothing flat.
Wish I was still on that cliff face.
Okay, Doc, closing now.
If he doesn't get it right
we'll all be smashed to pieces.
Very good, Gerard.
Right on target.
Are you all right?
We're fine!
Tell me what's happening.
Another five degrees.
He's got nerve, I'll give him that.
Yes, well, maybe so, maybe so.
But we're still five degrees short.
He's playing chicken
with an ore carrier.
How stupid's that?
Maybe he's adopted.
If we get through this, Doc,
you better put in a good word for me.
One more might do it.
Gerard.
What is it?
I don't know.
Power's there, but I've lost stamina.
What's he doing?
He's attached himself to the ore carrier.
He's not that stupid.
He's pretty stupid.
Stupidity scale of
one to 10, that's an 11.
Gerard you better do something,
and do it fast!
I can't break free!
We must be jammed on the thrusters!
What does he think he's doing?
Deflection, how far?
Three degrees.
They've cleared Icarus
but not the station.
Come on, Gerard.
The rear thrusters, it has to be.
It must be jammed against
the superstructure.
Well, can you divert all
power into one thruster?
Don't be stupid, you'll get a meltdown.
So, do it, melt the thruster,
then we can break free.
Hold this.
And this.
I know, don't let them touch.
How much longer?
Three minutes to impact.
Gerard, another three degrees.
Can you give us another three degrees?
Not now, I can't!
Okay, take this one.
And this one.
Okay, don't move it.
Two and a half minutes.
Gerard, can you get clear?
I need an answer.
Use full power on your rear thrusters,
can you do that?
Will someone shut her up!
Gladly.
Well, I'd say you've been cut off.
Michael, turn that
back on, that's an order!
Seal all the bulkheads.
Yes, Commander.
Okay, the yellow wire.
And the blue wire, you've
gotta crimp 'em together.
Okay, do your stuff, Kumi.
Now what?
Now we see if I know
more about electrics
than your pressure sickness.
Two more degrees.
45 seconds to impact.
They're accelerating.
42.
40.
- Just two degrees.
39.
How much more power have you got?
Still got a bit up my sleeve.
How much more sleeve have you got?
We're outta here!
Whoo, boy!
Enough excitement for one day.
Sure beats boarding school.
Deflection reading.
It wasn't enough,
we're still one short.
One miserable wretched degree.
My experiment!
Thankfully the Icarus
is still in one piece.
However, I cannot ignore the
fact that you broke the rules.
It was our idea to take the Zodiac.
Yeah, we convinced him.
So, if two irresponsible friends
can convince you to abandon the rules
how are you going to
survive on a real ship?
What's going on?
Someone mind telling me what's happening?
There's someone
trapped in the ed center.
We think it's Anna and Abe.
Anna?
Emergency, emergency.
Walk please, don't run.
Everyone still in the ed unit.
Abe!
Come over here and help me!
- Ed!
Open the doors you electronic egg-head!
Abe!
Abraham D. Spence.
That's D for D minus.
What all do you think I can be?
Because mc squared.
I'm not just a machine you know.
I've got.
Now, listen carefully.
Have you got that?
I never forget a name, I
never forget an assessment.
Dear, my head hurts.
He's gone mental.
This is just great.
My last living moments
and I'm stuck in school
with a demented teacher!
minutes to get to the crash site.
Just follow me down.
Hurry up and tie off, Michael.
Think about it, Gerard, if we
break our necks they'll all die.
If we don't make it to the

Now move!

They're using us, can't you see?
We're expendable!
You're talking nonsense!
They sent us in

We're just experiments!
Michael, no!
Mission control, come in.
We need help!
Commander Dent, come in!
The rescue mission comes first.
It's life or death for those five people.
There's no room for sentimentality.
It's okay, Michael, hang in there.
I'll get you down.
It's okay, Michael, I've got you!
We're gonna fall!
We're both gonna die!
We're gonna die!
No you're not, you're safe, relax!
There's nothing we can do for them now.
Now, Michael, just give me your arm.
Come here, I've got you.
Relax, I'll get you down.

Yes, we're online.
Michael's right, it is time to panic.
No.
How much worse can a bad day get?
Plenty.
It just had to be you.
Gerard, what on earth do
you think you're doing?
Ha, there might be a way.
I'm sorry to let the cat
out of the bag, Gerard,
but I know that you sometimes piggyback
on the ore carriers.
He does what?
So, with your help, we might be able
to deflect the carrier
away from my Icarus.
He won't say yes.
My brother's not that stupid.
I thought you had schoolwork to do.
But...
Put a full stop
after that "but" and move it.
And I mean now.
I need an answer, Gerard.
Do you think you can do it?
Of course I can do it,
I've done it before, sort of.
How many times?
Eight.
A couple.
Once, actually.
Hitching a ride on an ore
carrier's a bit different
to blasting it off course.
Well, what do you guys think?
I mean, it's your necks, too.
Well, we got you into this mess.
And it'll get Dent off your back.
Thanks.
Okay, but there's one small problem.
The Zodiac's engines, there's
a small technical hitch.
Well, can you fix it?
You're forgetting
who you're talking to.
How long 'til the carrier reaches them?
Sam?
Okay, you've got 10 minutes.
No sweat.
If I could just bypass the dead circuit.
Okay, Kumi, edge it forward,
The right leg, slowly.
Five minutes.
Easy, with time to spare.
I know this thing like
the back of my hand.
Okay, tell me what you want.
Eight degrees deflect nodular knee.
Nothing flat.
Wish I was still on that cliff face.
Okay, Doc, closing now.
If he doesn't get it right
we'll all be smashed to pieces.
Very good, Gerard.
Right on target.
Are you all right?
We're fine!
Tell me what's happening.
Another five degrees.
He's got nerve, I'll give him that.
Yes, well, maybe so, maybe so.
But we're still five degrees short.
He's playing chicken
with an ore carrier.
How stupid's that?
Maybe he's adopted.
If we get through this, Doc,
you better put in a good word for me.
One more might do it.
Gerard.
What is it?
I don't know.
Power's there, but I've lost stamina.
What's he doing?
He's attached himself to the ore carrier.
He's not that stupid.
He's pretty stupid.
Stupidity scale of
one to 10, that's an 11.
Gerard you better do something,
and do it fast!
I can't break free!
We must be jammed on the thrusters!
What does he think he's doing?
Deflection, how far?
Three degrees.
They've cleared Icarus
but not the station.
Come on, Gerard.
The rear thrusters, it has to be.
It must be jammed against
the superstructure.
Well, can you divert all
power into one thruster?
Don't be stupid, you'll get a meltdown.
So, do it, melt the thruster,
then we can break free.
Hold this.
And this.
I know, don't let them touch.
How much longer?
Three minutes to impact.
Gerard, another three degrees.
Can you give us another three degrees?
Not now, I can't!
Okay, take this one.
And this one.
Okay, don't move it.
Two and a half minutes.
Gerard, can you get clear?
I need an answer.
Use full power on your rear thrusters,
can you do that?
Will someone shut her up!
Gladly.
Well, I'd say you've been cut off.
Michael, turn that
back on, that's an order!
Seal all the bulkheads.
Yes, Commander.
Okay, the yellow wire.
And the blue wire, you've
gotta crimp 'em together.
Okay, do your stuff, Kumi.
Now what?
Now we see if I know
more about electrics
than your pressure sickness.
Two more degrees.
45 seconds to impact.
They're accelerating.
42.
40.
- Just two degrees.
39.
How much more power have you got?
Still got a bit up my sleeve.
How much more sleeve have you got?
We're outta here!
Whoo, boy!
Enough excitement for one day.
Sure beats boarding school.
Deflection reading.
It wasn't enough,
we're still one short.
One miserable wretched degree.
My experiment!
Thankfully the Icarus
is still in one piece.
However, I cannot ignore the
fact that you broke the rules.
It was our idea to take the Zodiac.
Yeah, we convinced him.
So, if two irresponsible friends
can convince you to abandon the rules
how are you going to
survive on a real ship?
What's going on?
Someone mind telling me what's happening?
There's someone
trapped in the ed center.
We think it's Anna and Abe.
Anna?
Emergency, emergency.
Walk please, don't run.
Everyone still in the ed unit.
Abe!
Come over here and help me!
- Ed!
Open the doors you electronic egg-head!
Abe!
Abraham D. Spence.
That's D for D minus.
What all do you think I can be?
Because mc squared.
I'm not just a machine you know.
I've got.
Now, listen carefully.
Have you got that?
I never forget a name, I
never forget an assessment.
Dear, my head hurts.
He's gone mental.
This is just great.
My last living moments
and I'm stuck in school
with a demented teacher!
