SeaQuest 2032 (1993–1996): Season 3, Episode 4 - Destination Terminal - full transcript

Three members of the crew take a ride on the maiden voyage of an under water high speed train. During the trip a saboteur tries to discredit the new technology by causing an overload in the trains speed.

Lieutenant Henderson?
- Commander.

At ease.

Thank you, sir.
- No, don't rest at the place.

Just relax.
- One of us should.

Yes...

Henderson?
- Yes?

About our mission.
- Our mission?

Yes, this one. Seaquest moors in San Francisco,
during the first Omni Pacific ride.

And I give tick chains to crew members.
- I'm on leave, great.

Fantastic.
- Yes you are.

I have two tickets for the Omni Pacific.
They were not easily available.



And I wondered if you
want to take a ride?

I would like you to have your leave ashore
used to take a ride on the Omni Pacific.

With you, sir?
- Yes, Henderson with me.

Is this an order?
- No of course not.

Then it's a date?
- It is an official UEO function.

So it's a date.
- Well, in a way.

Okay, then I have to go there
think about it, commander.

And, you have to call me Lonnie.

Welcome to the Omni station. Please
go through customs before you get in.

What do you think?
- I'm not sure yet, sir.

You must be sure soon.

The International Technical Committee
says the Omni Pacific is ready.

I don't ask them,
but up to you.

In your worried opinion, we would have fifty VIPs
to take a seat in the Omni Pacific.



And they pass through the vacuum tunnel
Send San Francisco to Beijing,

at the speed of 3000 km / hour?

It depends on
how much you like these people.

I only had half a day for technical reasons
read data. It's hard to say.

Answer me.

Warning.
Beta modulator defective ...

This is not good.

I urgently need a beta modulator.

I'll check the inventory, sir.
- No, I say now. Do I have to come and get it myself?

With all due respect, Mr. Dumont, it's important
to remain Calm for the project.

who is there? Who am I talking to?

I am a newcomer to the project.

I want a name. Like it
Committee asks why we are late again.

Beta modulator is on its way, Mr. Dumont.
- Your name?

Tell me your name.

Bradley Dumont, chief engineer.
- Calm down, boss.

You come to give free advice and
to approve the opening of Omni Pacific.

You are wrong, Mr. Dumont.
I came for the full tour.

My scientific officer will
give the approval.

Oh no. Lucas Wolenczak?

Know each other?

Not personal. But every one
student at Stanford

reach your high average when you
graduate and became a sailor.

Did they succeed?
- Not yet.

Being a genius is boring, isn't it?
- Not for me.

Then you are certainly impressed
from the Omni Pacific.

I'm impressed, in part.
- Part?

We deliberately overload the beta modulator.

That is part of the test. Anything else?
- No, nothing special.

You really are a genius.
- And now they come here, now.

Omni Pacific, is the fastest and most
advanced underwater technology.

I should know
I designed it.

I have read the news article and Seaquest
is the newest underwater technology.

But Captain,
I am satisfied with what I do not see.

Are you satisfied enough to give permission?
- Gentlemen, just relax.

Mr. Dumont was the one
who could not break my average.

Ensign, do you have an opinion?
- I'm sorry, Captain, yes, I have one.

Actually it is more feeling.
- A feeling, maybe we should toss.

Maybe I need you both,
place on a wrestling mat.

I understand why UEO needs this trip
approve,

Your decision, Mr. Wolenczak.

I'm worried, but
I can do the UEO project,

worth one hundred billion dollars. Not
stop at the last minute.

Then it comes down to one
simple question.

Do you want to take a ride on the Omni Pacific?

Yes, I want that, sir.
- All right then.

Have fun in Beijing.

I drive the Omni Pacific?
- The answer is yes.

Enjoy the journey.

Is this a new modulator relay?

Who are you, sir? I don't know you yet.
- I'm the one you asked.

Yes that is, we are going to the second one
generation data, in the system.

Good...

Ladies and gentlemen,
your attention please.

Omni Pacific embarkation starts inside
20 minutes.

I am a reporter Martin Majors and this is
the ticket for the fastest ride you can have.

The Omni Pacific an underwater
train that goes three times faster than the noise.

With me, Lawrence Deon is president
and CEO of Deon International.

Mr. Deon, what do you think of this?

I am enthusiastic like the rest of the world.
The Omni Pacific is a technological miracle.

This is an example of
collaboration.

Does Deon have his financing
not withdrawn at an early stage?

Deon is now a smaller partner,
we do not want to be in the spotlight.

Competition is the core of free trade and
Deon often overshadows other partners.

I want the others
also give it a chance.

Wall Street believes you
prefer traveling by plane.

We changed the position of Deon together
with the airlines,

to better serve the world traveler.

This will not be competition
for your western center?

Of course and that is healthy.
That is why Deon makes a limited part of it.

I like trains.
It feels old-fashioned and cozy.

So you're coming?
- Unfortunately, no.

As you know, I have the
bought a world champion in a basket.

They are now called Deon Demons and I have a meeting now
with the most important people in the city.

To confirm that I am the price
of the tickets will not double.

You will not double the price?
- No ... Thank you.

That's the best seat that
your captain can give.

Actually it is because of my expertise,
I deserve this seat, Bradley.

You talk to a fish, Lucas.
I set technological dreams

in functional and
wonderful pieces of steel.

Hello, Zerus. How are you?
- Hello, Bradley.

Sensors tell me that we are ready.
- Yes, honey.

Close the cockpit and
start checking the system.

Do I begin the preparations?
- please.

I wrote the program myself.
- And does she sing you to sleep?

Sorry.
- Are you all right, miss?

I'm a little late. The Omni hasn't left yet?
- There is enough time.

You must be everywhere,
Deon International.

Not really. I worked part time
while attending evening school.

And you need a tattoo?
- Deon has a tattoo addiction.

Experience said.

That's what they say. Fair
I don't know him.

Welcome to the Omni Pacific.

Activate the passengers
limitation system.

Travel time to Beijing,
is three hours and seven minutes.

At a speed of 3000 kilometers per hour.

I thought you wouldn't come.
- To be in an official ceremony?

You look beautiful.

This van is very impressive, Bradley.
- Yes that is it.

You were an average in humility
at Stanford, am I right?

I am not responsible for
the opinions of others, Lucas.

Ladies and gentlemen, the speed
is now 1500 kilometers per hour.

Incredibly, Henderson.
As if we are astronauts.

Astronauts don't wear tuxedos and me
told you all about that Henderson thing.

It's your decision, commander.
Official or a date.

We must determine the rules.
- What are the rules if it's a date?

We eat, dance,
laugh and we see what happens.

And as official?
- Some chatter and awkward valves.

Dan Henderson, it's definitely a date.

Then the commander is Lonnie.
- But the crew shouldn't know that.

It is forbidden for officers
to date?

No, but it should be like that.
- You can now move around freely in the cabin.

Do we really have to dance?

Just like you can dance?
Calm down, this dress is not right.

I bet you are wearing pajamas.

In the summer short and in the winter,
long sleeves and woolen underwear.

Few people have this information,
Hend ... Lonnie.

What are you wearing?
- I don't wear pajamas.

Overloaded beta modulator.
The screen is turned off.

I don't like to say it,
but I am less impressed.

This is a complex technology.
Small malfunctions are normal.

Don't touch that.
- All right.

Main screen is switched on again.

Your reputation is handsome hair and curious.
That goes far, Wolenczak. But this is my job.

You know what, I've been following you for two days.
And I'm not curious anymore.

I came here to watch.
- Then look.

She doesn't need your help,
I don't need your opinion.

Who would know?
- me.

Why do men take dancing,
so serious?

I don't take it seriously
but I don't do it.

Except if I want to let rain,
or a lion wants to chase away.

You are scared.
- Of course.

You are that.

You think dancing is too feminine.
You feel masculinity threatened.

This is a date, not.
No therapy session.

Some of the best dancers in it
the past were men.

Fred Astaire, Baryshnikov,
Michael Jackson.

But she felt comfortable
with their feminine side.

I feel very comfortable with my
female side. Women have it, I don't.

I didn't mean to offend your manhood,
keep hunting lions.

My masculinity?
- Yes, never mind.

What about my masculinity?

Forget it.
- I do not want that.

How's the food?
- I'm not here for dinner, Larry.

Can you do it?
- Of course.

But it must look like
an ordinary accident.

Make sure you get the technology
credit.

The track does not stop with
compete with Dion international air.

That is not possible.
- Then it won't, sir.

You keep it a secret?
- Who would I say it to?

That does not play a role.
But that would make your parents very sad.

Nickelodeon Paganini program finished.

The door is open.

Captain?

Place rest.
- Thank you, sir.

Say it.
- Are you playing the pansy, sir?

It's the violin.

Do you know the difference between a violin and an onion?

No one will cry if you do the
cutting the violin into pieces.

For a man by the name of Piccolo.
Show you little appreciation for music.

I read the book, sir.
Red badge for courage.

What do you think?
- It was very good.

Thank you.

Very good?

Stephen Crane,
is a very good writer.

I will send him an email,
a fan letter.

This book was written in 1895.

I thought that part with the flag was great.

Those guys were real soldiers.

In such a war
I would like to participate.

This book is not about war,
it's about individual courage.

Read it again.
- Yes, sir.

And this time ...

Put this on.
- Colored glasses?

They are special.

They are made for
dyslexies.

Ensures that the letters do not fly around.
They make it easier to read.

I repeat, this is
Omni Pacific. Asks for...

Can anyone hear me?
- We can't get lost, Bradley.

We are on tracks, remember?
- Our communication connection no longer works.

You mean the radio?

It is not a radio. The Omni underwater wave
channel is the best there is.

Okay. But you still have a backup?

A backup system is not required.
- Captain Smith said that.

Which captain?

E. J. Smith, the captain of the Titanic.
We're going too fast, aren't we?

That is not a problem, we are not going
through the ocean as you are used to.

My father had such a TV. He had to be there
save a few times to view the news.

Why do not you go,
get something to drink?

I do not drink.
Then bring me a drink. Please.

Commander?

I didn't know you'd be here.

I'm here.
What are you doing here?

Captain Hudson sent me to observe.
- It doesn't surprise you?

No, not at all, welcome.
- Thank you.

Two at once?
- I'm with friend.

A boyfriend or girlfriend?

I escort the Nairobi ambassador.

This is a business trip.
Shaking hands, cheese on sticks ...

I'll see you.
- Yes.

Vodka martini
shake, not stirred.

Mr. Bond, welcome.
- Who?

ID card.

Next time Q will make this for you,
don't tell him you're twenty-nine.

Say twenty years instead, maybe.
- But, I'm twenty-nine years old, sir.

Me too.

Where did you get my drink?
- I'm not bringing you one.

Who are you?
- Mason Freeman.

Passengers are not allowed in here.
- I represent one of the investors.

Lawrence Deon provided the funds ...
- Mr. Deon is a traditionalist.

He still believes in the future
of air traffic.

Now open the control panel.
- No.

This computer controls this train.
- I know. Maybe you didn't hear me.

Open the control panel.

I thought you were
the train would jump.

Lucas is here.
- What did you tell him?

I told him you were the Nairobi
ambassador. What else could I say?

Well, you're right. I am the
Nairobi ambassador.

Hey, Bradley?

Bradley, what's happening?
What's the problem?

Open the door.

I can't get in touch with the Omni?
- When did you last talk to Lucas?

When the Omni left, he would
have contact every hour.

That was fifteen minutes ago.
Now I only get error logs.

Well, it's a new train.
Then you can expect mistakes.

The Omni goes at a speed of
3701 km per hour.

That is 321 kilometers faster than it
would do.

Captain Hudson,
do you want to come to the bridge?

Bradley ...

Commander, what's happening?
- I just wanted to ask you the same thing.

Bring this party box back home ...

Jonathan, we have to tell people something.
- What do you suggest?

Anything. Electric peak,
broken compass, broken modulator.

Broken compass?

Then tell them you don't
know what's going on,

but I don't think they want to hear that.

Excuse me, I can get everyone's attention.
I'm the commander Ford.

This is Lieutenant Hendersen of SeaQuest.

I want to explain what
happened now a ...

Overloading the acceleration module
but it is being repaired.

No reason to panic.
- We are not panicking.

We just want to go back to San Francisco.

In the worst case we will
arrive an hour earlier in Beijing.

When did that happen again?

Put up a movie.
Distract their thoughts.

A movie?
I don't have enough electricity for my mixer.

Give them free drinks.
- Who's account?

Do it.

Try to calm down the travelers.
I'm going to find Lucas.

Jonathan?

Be careful.

You too.

Bradley.
- He's not here, I'm sorry.

I do not understand.
- Stupid ...

Me neither.

Bradley, I want to help.
- Lucas, how fast are we going?

3900 kilometers per hour
and we accelerate.

Death.
- This is sabotage.

By who?

Someone with a right raid and something
know more about the Omni computer than I do.

I can't stop the train.
- Did you contact the Sequest?

No, communication does not work either.
We are in a vacuum of

electromagnetic polarity without friction.

And we are not slowing down, our speed is increasing.
- And an emergency system?

The Omni is programmed to
to go 3701km per hour.

If above, it goes back
to the maximum speed.

Someone sabotaged the computer and me
can't be in safety mode.

And they have the only one
person who could have killed that.

Someone has put a lot of effort into
so this looks like an accident.

4828 km per hour?
- Yes, sir.

1448 km faster than allowed.

Captain Hudson, isn't it
checked by Wolenczak?

Mr. Minister, there is a big one
difference between a twenty-four hour examination.

And a complete analysis.

I told Wolenczak that he
it can stop whenever he wants.

An authorization you gave yesterday,
while the whole world is watching.

Engineers from all over the world
have been working on this for eight years.

And Wolenczak never participated.

I suggest you
looking for another scapegoat.

Sir, what can we do?
- I don't know, Piccolo.

How is it going here?
- They persist.

This is my fault.
- I could have said no.

I shouldn't have asked.
- Okay.

Maybe I think it's a shame I said yes,
but I have no regrets that you asked.

This is not what I thought,
how our first date would be.

Madam Ambassador?
- Ensign.

Lieutenant.
- Lucas, these are my business.

You're welcome. I found this at Bradley.
You may need it.

That was then
the control of weapons and security.

Did you get lucky with the computer?
- Yes.

I managed to get it back online.
For a minimal diagnosis.

When I was in security
system could,

I have the macros function
polarity isolated.

But the code is worthless.

Temperature in the front wagon is 22 degrees.
- Thanks, Zerus.

I want to help you, Bradley.
- You start hating that voice.

Disconnect the last cabin.

Zerus, who is it to unlink?
- I want to help you, Bradley.

Someone is the last wagon
to disconnect.

I'm trying to figure it out.
Improvise to make a radio.

Unlinking request started.

Do you work as a freelancer, Mr. Freeman?
Or does Deon pay in advance?

I don't have the freedom,
to reveal my employer.

Mr. Deon does not like being outside
the company, is being talked about.

What does he think of a dead person in the company?
- Depends who died.

And if it was his or not his idea.
But you know what? You're not gonna kill me.

Because I am the only one who can stop this train.
- Then it stops.

I do not think so.

This train goes at 5600 km per hour,
crashing in the Beijing station.

I guarantee you
it won't be beautiful.

Ready to disconnect.

But we still have time
to get off this train.

Give me the code.

Would you rather die?
- And you?

I'm not going to die.

Oh yes,
I emptied Dumont gun.

Wagon is disconnected.

Are we online?
- I try.

Jonathan, what happened? Is everything alright?
- Yes, it's Deon.

Mason Freeman was on the train.
- The man with the tattoo, I knew it.

It doesn't play a role,
Come on, Lucas.

There it is. We are online.
- Connect with the SeaQuest.

Do what you can
commander.

Deon ...

Your opinion about Larry Deon
is irrelevant, Captain Hudson.

If you have reason for him too
the UEO will arrest ...

There is no more time.

Omni Pacific is on its way with enormous speed
to Beijing, at 4830 km per hour.

This is not the wild west,
we have procedures.

I don't care if my people are involved.
- Don't do it, Captain.

The dignity of sport is the subject
of discussion.

Since a farmer in ancient times, the skull of
the enemy kicked over a meadow.

The purity of the game,
the humble loser, the honored winner.

It is not important how
hard you hit the ball, but how hard you try.

All that is a lie.
Sport is about money.

You bet on it, you sell it, we pay for it
to watch if we are too old or too lazy.

It is our way to participate,
from the couch with our slippers.

In the last arena of hope and drama.

I bought the Deon demons to make money.

For you, the city of San Francisco and for me.

The ticket price will double and
the fans will keep coming.

Because they are afraid of playing the game alone.
- I'm not afraid to play, Larry.

Captain Hudson,
You have an appointment, I guess?

I don't need an appointment.
- Remove the charlatan.

We have to talk.

Talk about a mediocre career too
end with many prejudices.

See what you say. I live for work.
- Not anymore.

After this stunt, I will ask UEO for
throw yourself before the hungry politicians.

You were completely out of the Omni Pacific,
have to retreat.

Maison Freeman never got off the train.
Three of my best officers are on board.

I do not know what you're talking about.
- Yes, yes.

Freeman does not know how he can take the train
stop and it will collide.

But before that. Will my officers take care of it,
that he will send a full confession.

You are ruined, Larry.
I wanted me to tell you.

Can I talk to him?
- There is no more time.

I was one of the first
investor in the Omni.

If Dumont the original
design has not changed.

Close the secondary induction
system on the B-bus.

That might give you enough energy
to control the train.

You were bluffing.
- Submit a complaint to the UEO.

Close the secondary induction
system on the B-bus.

That can provide enough energy
to control the train.

Try it.
- Okay.

But do not tell it further that I did it.
- By using a hairpin?

Do you not have a thread number twelve with you?
- no.

Then shut up and keep up.
- We have energy.

Can you slow down?
- I will try.

The computer will not start.
The circuits are burned.

You have a whole lot of new parameters,
ensign. Try all your ideas.

If it doesn't work, throw them upside down and
try again.

I try, but this is not a school exam.
There you know that there is an answer.

That was not when I was there.
That's why I joined the navy.

Try what you can. I inform Beijing
to evacuate the station.

Deon's information gives us much more energy,
we can go faster but we cannot delay.

What happens if we accelerate?

If the floating tracks break, we lose
oxygen and die.

You say there is no solution?
- Perhaps.

And what if there is one? What if
go faster is the answer.

Maybe if we go fast enough,
we can fly through the tracks.

Like during a tornado like one
straw breaks a telephone lock.

Give me the tunnel control.

If you do a test and you are
sure there is no correct answer.

That is because you unknowingly have the meaning
changed the question.

Yes...

I can send him to the Honshu ledge.

We can break out there and then
the water soften the impact?

Yes. Loosen the passenger car,
Before we reach the maximum speed.

If the tunnel breaks, it will
water slow down the wagon.

And we?
- We are astronauts.

The lamppost like straw.
- Or like canned meat.

Fasten your seat belts
and bend your head between your knees.

If you have a pillow
use them to protect your face.

You too, Lonnie.
- No.

Someone has to help the passengers.

Just an excuse to save me.
- It's an order, lieutenant.

The date has ended.

Commander?
- Yes?

I want to see you on the other side.

Beijing station, this is Seaquest.DSV. Clear
the complex. I repeat, clear the complex.

Closed circuits are activated.
- We're at the Honshu ledge in 30 seconds.

Give me a sign.
- In five, four, three, two, one ...

Disconnect now ...

Maximum speed.
- now...

Are you all right?

Jonathan? Lucas?
Do you hear me?

Jonathan? Lucas?

Jonathan? Lucas?
Do you hear me?

Yes, we made it.

It still works.

If I fix something,
it continues to work.

I went to Stanford, you know?

You are a lucky man, Captain.
- Happiness has nothing to do with it, sir.

Well for Larry Deon, your promotion has the UEO
procedure has been violated and the evidence ...

My action saved lives.

And our court
can't sue him again.

But what about me?
- Not anymore.

Why not?

Because, in a strange way.
I like you.

You mean that in a strange way,
I am usually right?

Don't go too far, Captain.
- I can't help it, sir.

Hey.
- Hey.

Welcome back.
- Thank you, sir.

Take care of Lieutenant Henderson.
- What, sir?

Debrief hair or something.
- Yes, sir.

You were very lucky, ensign.
- It wasn't lucky, sir.

Bradley Dumont made
a damn beautiful train.

Debrief me?
- Yes.

And I think the order was.
