Sanctuary (2008–2011): Season 3, Episode 1 - Kali: Part III - full transcript

Previously on Sanctuary...

Dr. Zimmerman,
Ms. Freelander, Namaste.

Call me Ravi.

The Makri is
an incredibly rare species

of abnormal spider

that requires a warm-blooded
host to survive.

It is a subspecies offshoot
of a marine-dwelling abnormal

known as Gephallis bertallosso.

Big Bertha, the one
who makes the earth move.

And the waters rise.

They may well have a chemical
or even psychic bond



that allows the host a deeper
connection to Big Bertha.

Kali. That's the woman
of my visions.

Wait, but Big Bertha's dead.

You killed her
four years ago, yes?

Not exactly.

You kept her alive
and lied about it?

Historically, creatures
as powerful as Big Bertha

have a symbiotic relationship

with other lifeforms
on this planet.

I felt that euthanizing her

would create
far greater problems.

We need to initiate
an immediate global alert.

We're not there yet, Terrence.

You need to contain
this situation quickly.



We need to find
whoever's controlling Bertha

and sever the connection.

Whoever has that bug
inside of them,

they control her.

This is Edward Forsythe.

Now, he's a big player
in the global geo-mining biz.

You're using

a long-range acoustic device
against Bertha?

With a clear shot,
we could knock her out.

Forsythe can't control
an unconscious creature.

She's not making earthquakes.

She's making land.

No! No, you must stop!

- Find me.
- How?

Dance the Rapati Sungu.

No!

Deploy all depth charges

to Bertha's position.

Terrence,
what the hell are you doing?

Target her
with everything we have.

What?

You betrayed me!

Will! Will!

You are hereby relieved
of your command

of the Sanctuary Network,
effective immediately.

Dude, you cannot be serious.

Don't interfere... Dude.

You have no idea
what you've done.

I did what you refused to do.

No, Terrence,
this is what you've done!

Oh, she's mad.

No, I'm good. I'm good.

We need a stretcher
back there!

Henry!

Yeah. What happened?

It'll need stitches,

but it'll have to wait,
I'm afraid.

Thank you.

Hold that on.
Stay here.

Get those men
out of the water! Quickly!

Jaldi! Come on!

Get the door!

Come on, guys.
Hurry up.

Right here, right here.

Hurry up, come on.

Let's go.

Pulse is thready.

Get us back to
the Sanctuary, now!

Move it.

- Come on, Will.
- Now, stay with me.

Come on!

We've gained control
of the helm again, sir.

Bring us about.

Close the gap
between us and the lifeboats.

- Sir, yes, sir.
- Belay that order.

Bertha's still on the island.
We have a clear shot.

But the men in the water...

Will be dead if she launches
another wave.

What's our weapons status?

Recalibrating.
We took a huge hit.

Get them up and running
as quickly as possible.

Get me close
to that damn spider.

Aye, sir.

Get him to the infirmary
immediately.

Why the hell
is it taking so long?

It's Dharavi.

- It's Magnus.
- Put it on speaker.

Magnus. What's going on?

Kate. You have to evacuate
the coastal areas of Mumbai

immediately.

Wexford fired depth charges
at Bertha.

She responded by creating
a massive tidal wave.

It's headed your way.

- How long do we have?
- It's hard to say.

It's already taken down
two of our ships.

If we don't warn people
of the danger...

Okay, okay,
just leave it with me.

How's Will?

Uh, I'll have to get
back to you on that.

Hey! Pull up over here.

Where are you going?

I'll have to
get back to you on that.

Kate!

Kate, wait!

Let's go.

Oh, bloody hell!

Why are we heading
away from the lifeboats?

You're going after Bertha?
After what just happened?

You saw what she can do.

After you provoked her.

And now you intend
to do it again.

This time I'll be prepared.

Terrence, think about
what you're doing.

This is not
your operation, Helen!

You are no longer head
of the Sanctuary Network.

I am.

Come on, come on.

Missiles armed and ready, sir.
We have a target lock.

Fire.

I said fire!

Sorry, sir,

Dr. Magnus' helicopter
is between us and the target.

Dammit!

Helen, come in.

I know you can hear me, Helen.
This is not a game.

You need to return to the ship
right now.

This is not your
decision to make, Terrence.

Bertha must survive.

What is she doing?

She's headed straight
for the target.

Come on, get back in the water.

What the hell is that?

Localized magnetic bursts, sir.

But it fried our control systems
and our helm.

Well, fix it!

Oh dear.

We had a clear shot at Bertha.

Unfortunately,
circumstances intervened.

What's your next move?

Obviously I intend
to pursue her further,

but in the meantime,

we have another serious problem
that needs to be addressed.

Bertha created
a large tidal wave,

which is headed towards
the coasts of India, Pakistan,

and the Arabian Peninsula.

You should be receiving
the data shortly.

My God.

We anticipate it hitting
landfall in Mumbai

in the next three hours,

then the four other targets
four hours later.

- What are we going to do?
- There's nothing we can do.

I'm relying on you to contact
the necessary authorities.

- How did this happen?
- Bertha lashed out at us.

We're finally seeing
the true effects

of Magnus keeping her alive.

Where is Magnus?

Her helicopter
went into the ocean.

We commenced rescue efforts,

but unfortunately
the wreckage sank

before we arrived at the site.

Wait, are you saying she's...?

Rescue operations are ongoing.
But I fear the worst.

- BP's 80 over 50.
- We'll start an IV.

Will! Will, can you hear me?
Will?

- What happened?
- You collapsed in the street.

Was I... dancing?

Like a regular Shahrukh Khan.

That's a good thing.

I saw Kali.

She was angry.

She had reason to be.
Wexford fired on her.

What happened?

She started a tidal wave, Will.

It's on its way here.

We have to do something.

I have to contact Kali again.

Whoa, whoa.
Not in your condition.

You need to rest.

A tidal wave.

Look, I need to talk
to the Minister right away.

My reference is Helen Magnus.
I told you.

Yes, sir, thank you.

Look, I don't have time
to explain.

The holy hell of Poseidon

is about to come down
on your city

in the next two hours.

Full evacuations have started,

but you need to get
the tsunami warning horns on.

Look, I'm saying if you don't
turn on your sirens right now,

and I mean this minute,

thousands of people
are gonna die!

Shukriyah, Minister Sahib.
Thank you.

Come on! Jaldi!
Everyone, come on!

You forced her into this.

Her blood is on your hands.

That's not true,
and you know it.

Magnus attacked Bertha
on her own accord.

She knew the risks.

What the hell do you want?

I need you to restore contact
with Bertha's tracking beacon

and fix our targeting systems.

You gotta be kidding me.

There's a dangerous abnormal
on the loose

that needs our attention.

Go to hell.

Look, I'm not asking you
to forget Magnus

or trample on her memory
in any way,

but there's millions of lives
at stake here.

No injuries to report.
Damage was minimal,

but we did take on
a lot of water.

Luckily, we rode the wave
bow-on.

I put the old woman in a
stateroom to calm her down.

Yeah, good luck with that.

Mr. Forsythe, I have to ask...
what do you want us to do now?

Now? There is no "now,"
thanks to Magnus.

Sir? You okay?

No. I'm not.

Nothing.

Keep trying.

No, no, no, no, no.
We have no time for this.

Come on, we need to go.
We need to go over there.

It's okay.

Come on. Come on, everyone.

Come on. Jaldi.
Keep going!

Jaldi. Jaldi. Kate.

- The wave is very close.
- You need to get back here.

I can't.
We're not done here.

Kate, listen to me.
There's no time.

Janu! Janu! Janu!

Look, I gotta go.

- Wait, Kate...
- I'll be fine.

What's going on?

Okay.

Okay?

It's fine. I'll find him.
I'll find him.

Come on, go. Everyone, go!

I'll find him.

Janu!

Janu!

Oh no, no, no, no.
No, you guys can't be here.

We need to go, now.
Come on.

Come on! Come on!

Run!

Aw, satyanash.

What happened?

The wave just took out Dharavi.
I can't reach Kate.

That's funny, I thought I said
I wasn't to be disturbed.

Sorry, sir,

but there's something
you need to see.

Yeah, I highly doubt that.

In fact, I have pretty much
seen everything I need to see

for the rest of my life.

You're gonna want
to come for this.

Ooh, can I guess?

Is a giant squid
attacking the ship?

Does Gisele Bundchen
want my phone number?

Did Grimsby win the FA Cup?

We just fished her
out of the water.

Well, I'll be damned.

What the hell is this?

Mr. Foss, I asked you
to fix the computers,

not ship them home
piece by piece.

I hate to break it to you.

When a giant spider
fries your system,

it takes a little more
than "Control-Alt-Delete"

to get things running again.

I hope you understand

if we don't track Bertha down
and neutralize her...

Yeah, I know,
the whole world will end,

cats will rule the Earth,
I get it.

You gave me
the sales pitch already.

There's a lot of damage
here, dude.

I want this mess fixed
in an hour.

You get me, dude?

Jackass.

You okay? Yeah?

Get up.

Hey, I told you I'd be fine.

- Don't do that again.
- How bad is it?

It's Darjeeling Summer tea.

They say it gets its taste
from the Himalayan breeze

that cools the valley
where it grows.

Not impressed?

I have to say

I am so honored
to be here with you.

I'm such a fan.

I've been a fan of yours
for a long, long time,

ever since I heard that speech
you did in the Maldives

about the new genus of Bakunawa.

Really?

Why? Why do I even
hire these guys?

This is not a social call.

I appreciate you saving my life,
but your utter recklessness

has caused unimaginable
pain and suffering

to the people of this region,

and it promises to do much worse
before this is over.

Are you gonna kill me?

No. You are going
to communicate with Bertha

and convince her
to stop these waves.

Yeah, I can't do that.

No, really.
I can't do it.

Why not?

Same reason as I don't
really give a crap

about that gun
being in my face.

The Makri.

Yeah. It died
about an hour ago.

Apparently this rare
form of arachnid species

has a low tolerance for stress.

And, of course,
as its former host,

I'm a dead man as well.

So, I'm sorry, but without him,

I can't connect to Bertha
any more than you can.

- We were lucky.
- Most of the residents

- We were lucky.
- Most of the residents

were able to get
to high ground in time.

If it hadn't been
for Dr. Magnus's warning,

things would have been
much worse.

What's the news
on the other waves?

None good, I'm afraid.

ESA satellite imagery indicates
both have increased in size,

no doubt as a result of passing
through shallow water.

This is the projected fallout
once they make landfall.

Evacuations are proceeding
in Salalah and Karachi,

but there's no way we can
clear the entire area in time.

In other words...

We need a bloody miracle.

Bibi!

So nice of you
to have joined us.

Haven't you done enough?

Troublesome Kali cult member,
meet Dr. Helen Magnus.

From the Sanctuary?
Cha kali maki.

Cha kali maki.

You guys know each other?

She is well known
among my people

for protecting the special
creatures of the Earth.

I'm so sorry about
what happened to the Makri.

Your people have done
a remarkable job

of keeping it safe.

It wasn't your fault.

It was the fault of this.

Ouch, Bibi.

We need to get
in contact with Kali.

Is there a way to do that
without the Makri?

You wish her to help
stop the destruction.

I believe it's still possible.

With Kali, anything is possible.

But only if her true host
pleases her.

If there is no Makri,

then he must dance
the Rapati Sungu.

Yes, we tried that already,
and it worked at first,

but one of my own people
interfered,

and the connection was lost.

Please, is there anything else?

Magnus?

Hello, Will.

How did you...?
Where are you?

I'll explain later.

Listen, I've just found out
that there may be a way

to restore communication
with Kali.

That's great. How?

There is a belief
amongst the members of the cult

that Kali will appear
to a former host

one final time,

at the gates
to the spirit realm.

Spirit realm?
As in...

I'm afraid so.

In order to talk to Kali,
you have to die.

You're kidding, right?

Since when do we trade
on blind faith?

And even if it's true,
Kali may not listen,

or she may not be able
to stop the waves...

- Give me a minute?
- Of course.

Tell me you're not
seriously considering this.

Just... give me the room.

How sure are you about this?

Not very.

Like all beliefs, it comes
down to a leap of faith.

We do know that Bertha
shares some connectivity

with the rest of the world.

We've seen evidence of this

in the abnormals
that reacted to her outbursts,

but whether or not
she can control the waves

is anyone's guess.

Walk me through it.

We induce cardiac arrest,

but continue to monitor
your brain activity

so we can revive you.

What if it doesn't work?

- It will.
- No...

What if it's not long enough?

I'm just saying,
I'm dead anyway.

Once the Makri leaves the host,
the host dies.

Those are the rules.

So what exactly
am I coming back for?

Because I'm not prepared
to give up on you that easily.

Magnus...

The decision
to do this may be yours,

but the decision about
how far to take it

is absolutely mine.
No argument, Will.

Mr. Foss?

How are we doing here?

Well, I've managed
to reconnect with NAVSTAR,

but the readings are all wrong.

According to this, we're
sailing through the Arctic.

This is taking too long.

Well, I'm working
as fast as I can.

Somehow I don't believe you.

Sir? We have an incoming
transmission for you.

An unknown source.

- Helen?
- Doc!

Hello, Terrence.
Henry.

You're alive.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

That's not fair, Helen.

I know we've had
our differences,

but I've always had
the utmost respect for you,

and the best interests
of the Sanctuary at heart.

Good. Then pay attention.

We think we've found a way
for Will to reconnect with Kali.

He's going to attempt
to convince her

to stop the waves.

How?

We don't know yet, but if
he can reason with her...

Reason with her?

And if I'm right about
her interconnectedness

to other lifeforms...

Helen, are you
listening to yourself?

All I'm asking for is
a bit of time, Terrence.

Bertha isn't a threat
at the moment.

According to who?

If you attack her,
as you did before,

you will not only
put Will's life in danger,

but you risk angering her again.

We've been through this.
My orders,

as given to me by the heads
of the Sanctuary Network,

are to eliminate Bertha.

Now, if you're smart,
you'll stay out of my way.

I can't do that, Terrence.
There's too much at stake.

Then I can't
guarantee your safety.

I'm sorry
it's come to this, Helen.

And yet, here we are.

She's on a ship nearby.
Find out which one.

Right away, sir.

Mr. Foss, step away
from the console.

What?

I will not have you
sabotage my efforts

now that you know
Magnus is alive.

Take him to a secure room.

Dude, that is gross! Ow!

- Dammit!
- I told you.

That last magnetic burst
completely wiped our systems.

Let me widen the parameters,
run it again.

Thank you, Charles.

Charles?
I thought your name was Kyle.

Charles.

You know, you could help,

instead of lounging around
like a frat boy.

- I gave you Kyle, didn't I?
- Charles.

Anyway, why should I care?
My days are numbered in hours.

If Wexford finds Bertha
before we do,

it'll ruin any chance we have
of stopping those waves.

Not to mention what she'll do
if he attacks again.

Not really my problem, is it?

But it is a wonder
to see you work.

Could you pass me
my ball, please?

For the record, I still think
this is a crazy idea.

Most ancient myths are designed
to freak people out.

In the bottom drawer of my desk,
there's an envelope.

I wrote some things down, and...

No. No, no way.

We are not having
this conversation...

- Yes, we are.
- Because nothing's gonna happen.

Yes, it is.

Look, I don't give a crap about
your "last requests," okay?

And if that pisses you off,

then you're welcome
to cross my name

off of whatever
is in that envelope

when you get back.

Do you got it?

Yep.

Thanks, guys.

I know, rock and
a hard place, right?

Go ahead. Do your jobs.
I'm fine.

Dr. Magnus, I'm receiving
an incoming data stream.

What does it say?

It's a simple binary code.

What do you suppose that means?

They're coordinates.

What for? Who sent them?

Henry. He's giving us
Bertha's location.

Plot a course.

I think we're ready to go.

You sure you wanna
go through with this?

Oh, yeah.
Today's a good day to die.

Okay.

This is going to hurt a lot
while you're conscious.

Do it quickly, then.

Charging to 150.

Clear!

Charging to 200.

Clear!

- Asystole.
- Start the clock.

How long until
we bring him back?

Five minutes. Max.

Kali.

Kate. How much time?

Three minutes, six seconds.

How do I get across?

Leap of faith.

Okay.

Leap of faith.

- Four and a half minutes.
- Let's get him back out.

No argument from me.

Charging to 300.

Clear!

Ravi...

Charging to 360.

Clear!

You are a loyal host, Durga.

Captain, we have a problem.

It looks like someone
was transmitting

some sort of rudimentary code

through our
communications array.

That son of a bitch.
It's Foss.

He transmitted Bertha's
location to Magnus.

Plot that course immediately.
We need to catch up to her.

Sir.

He's not responding.
Starting compressions.

Bag him!

Take this bag
and squeeze it into his lungs.

One, two, three, four, bag.

One, two, three,
four, bag.

Come on, Will.

What is this place?

It is very special.

Only a select few
are allowed inside.

Who are they?

So many questions, Durga.

Is that why
you came to see me?

No. I came to ask
for your help.

For your mercy.

You wish me
to stop the waves.

Yes. Can you do that?

Mmm... Perhaps.

But why should I?

Because millions
of people will die.

My people.

- Your people attacked me.
- Only some of them.

The ones who don't
understand you.

And you understand me,
Durga?

No, not completely.

I didn't even know who you were
until recently.

But now that I do,

I see how deeply connected
you are to my world.

You communicate
with many things,

and we must learn
to communicate with you,

but right now, many lives
are in your hands.

Please, Kali.

To show mercy
means nothing to you,

but it will mean
everything to us.

How much time?

Kate, how long?

Eight minutes, 15 seconds.

I'm so sorry.

We can't stop.

But, Kate, he's had
no brain activity

for over eight minutes.

We can not stop! Push!

Push!

Go!

- You spoke well, Durga.
- You have served me loyally.

I will attempt to grant you
your wish.

Thank you.

We're approaching
the coordinates.

I'm picking up another
magnetic disturbance.

I know. What on earth
is she doing?

We've got company.

It's the Sanctuary ship.

Get her on the radio.

Aye, sir.

Helen, come in.

This is Magnus.

You need to give way, Helen.

I can't do that, Terrence.

I told you not to interfere.
Arm weapons.

Dr. Magnus?

I'm receiving
an urgent call for you.

Hello?

Just so you know,
I wasn't worried.

It's good to hear your voice,
old friend.

What've you got?

Report out of Salalah.

The wave bearing down
on the coast of Oman...

neutralized.

What? How?

Red Tide. Giant algae bloom
stretching the entire coast.

I'm sending you
the satellite image now.

It's amazing. Hundreds
of miles of red algae

would've completely altered
the viscosity of the water.

Helen, I have limited patience.
You need to stand down.

I'll get back to you.

Listen. I'm sending you
a report out of Salalah.

I'm convinced Bertha did this.

Will's attempt to
communicate with Bertha

was a success!

For all we know, this
could be a coincidence,

or perhaps the abnormal
community acting independently.

Be reasonable, Terrence.

All I'm asking for
is a little more time

to allow what's happening
to run its course.

Our scans indicate

that Bertha is generating
magnetic energy as we speak.

The risks are too high.

- Terrence...
- We're done!

You need to clear
the target area immediately,

or you will be fired upon.
Target that ship.

- What are we going to do now?
- We stay put.

We need to give her time
to stop the other wave.

We don't all have to.

It only takes one person
to control the ship, doesn't it?

And I'm a dead man, right?

There's a launch below,
so you guys need to get on it.

Charles, go and tell
everybody else,

and don't forget about
the old woman, all right?

Yes, sir.

You don't have to do this.

'Course I do.

Pangea. That was your plan.

A private colony out here.
Your own Sanctuary.

Bertha was to be the jewel.
Oh, it was gonna be beautiful.

The Island of Dr. Moreau,
but... done properly.

You can't blame me
for dreaming big.

It's a rare quality
these days.

Yeah.

Get going, darlin',
before I change my mind.

Thank you, Mr. Forsythe.

Edward.

Edward.

Helen, come in.

Helen! This is
your final warning.

Oh, shut up.

You need to clear
the target area immediately.

This is
H.M.S. I-don't-give-a-crap.

If you happen to be an uptight
amphibian martinet

with a Napoleon complex,

please bugger off.

Otherwise, leave a message
after the tone,

and we'll get back to you
as soon as possible.

Beep!

- Fire the missiles.
- Sir, that's a civilian ship.

- Do it!
- I will not, sir.

Then you're relieved.
Fire the missiles.

- Captain?
- Fire the damn missiles!

Good.

Now, target Bertha,
all batteries.

Craft approaching starboard.

Get us closer
to the boarding ladder!

Report!

Tactical communication
tower's down.

Targeting system's offline.

Fire everything!

Sir, we have
no guidance system.

If we fire now, we have
no control of where it goes.

- Get out of my way!
- Sir, no...

Kali!

Declan, what's the status
of the third wave?

Still headed for Karachi.

Estimated impact
in three minutes.

Please. I don't know
who you guys are,

but if you're in here with her,
you must be powerful.

Please.
Save her life.

My world depends
on her survival.

Will!

- What happened?
- Unbelievable.

Get the ice off.

I told you you'd be back.

Stand down, Terrence.

How dare you try
to commandeer this ship?

Arrest her.

I think I speak
for everyone here

when I say
we respectfully refuse.

Look at yourself.
What have you become?

It's over.

Are you getting this?

Earthquakes.

Three of them. Land-based.
At the southern tip of Pakistan.

My good God.

I don't believe it.

Captain, Dr. Magnus,

we're receiving
multiple reports.

The third wave was stopped
by a massive counterwave

30 klicks offshore.

Was it Bertha?

Negative.
She's alive but inactive.

Were we tracking any abnormal
sea life in the area?

No other information.
Just calm seas off Karachi.

Incredible.

Captain, set a course
for Mumbai.

We'll collect the rest
of the lifeboats en route.

Yes, ma'am.

Remarkable.

Whatever happened to you
when you died

must have cured
the effects of the Makri.

And yet you still have
no recollection of it?

Uh-uh.

For all I know, I could have
been chatting with Elvis.

Don't be ridiculous.
Elvis is...

Never mind.

I was really hoping
you could shed some light

on those mysterious earthquakes

that canceled out
the third wave.

I've been going over the data,
but none of it makes any sense.

Their timing
and geographic placement

are far too coincidental

for it to have been
a natural occurrence,

and Bertha was already
down by then.

Which means?

Which means, Will...
I don't know what happened.

Didn't hurt.
