Superbook (2011–…): Season 3, Episode 2 - Elijah and the Prophets of Baal - full transcript

Oh, it is a
beautiful temple, Ahab.

A beautiful temple
for a beautiful queen.

I hope now you won't be
so homesick for Phoenicia.

Here, you can worship your god
Baal, whenever you desire.

And perhaps you will finally
embrace your new home,

with me, here in Israel.

Hmmm, is Baal to be
worshipped by me alone, Ahab?

Because I grow weary ofyour people's talk

of there being only... ONE true God.

Your god is being worshipped

throughout ALL of Israel,
my queen.



KING AHAB!!

Who dares speak to the
King of Israel this way?!

It is Elijah,
prophet of the Lord!

YOU have done evil in
the sight of the Lord.

You have built temples and
altars to the false god, Baal,

and have done more to make
the Lord God of Israel angry

than ANY king of
Israel before you!

Prophet... you are...

I AM THE SERVANT OF THE
LIVING LORD, THE GOD OF ISRAEL!

AND I SWEAR IN HIS NAME THAT IT
WON'T RAIN EXCEPT AT MY WORD!

There won't even be
any DEW on the ground!

I don't need your God
for rain, Prophet!

Do you really think him
a match for Baal

the GOD OF WEATHER!!



Huh?

Increase the sacrifices until
Baal hears our pleas for rain!

Then bring me the man
responsible for this drought!

And if you find any
other prophets of the Lord,

KILL THEM!

Search everywhere...
but find Elijah!

You can't outrun the gods
of Garnielle, Quantum!

Oh man, it's Alec
and his demigods!

They're gaining on us, Giz!

I see the Flaming Bolt!

Chris, if you can capture it,
you will become a god of fire!

Whoaaaa!!!

Whooooaaaa!

I'm going to be sick.

Hang on, Giz! I'm going to
try to vortex us

to another dimension!

Whooooaaaa!

Ha-ha-ha! You are no
match for the gods! Hahahaha...

Oh man! I can't believe
how close we were!

I can't believe I crashed again!

Hi guys! Are you
still playing...

"Battleverse of the Gooooooods!"

You know what?
You're obsessed.

I am not obsessed! I'm depressed!

You're NOT obsessed?

You mean it's perfectly normal
to spend every waking hour

playing this game,

so your friends and family
in the real world...

La la la la la la lah

barely see you anymore?

You're obsessed.

Ha... I don't expect YOU to
understand, Joy, but Giz does!

And we're going back in.
Level 17, here we come!

All right!

- Uh oh!
- Superbook!

No! Not now! I have to
get back to Level 17!

I think I have had enough
adventure tooodayyyy!

Oooofff... whooooaaaaa

I am taking you to meet a man

who led an entire nation
away from their false gods

and back to the one
true living God.

Almost... Got it!
Ah!! Huh?

According to my geosensors,

we are in the NorthernKingdom of Israel,

approximately 850 B.C.

And my thermal sensors indicate

it has not rained here inover three years!

Wow! That's a long time
to go without rain.

Oh, hello!

- Hello.
- Uh-oh.

I have got you.

Oh, I am sorry.
Are you all right?

What were you doing
up in the tree?

I could not believe
I found figs,

in the middle of this drought!

But when I heard voices
I panicked

because I thought you
were with King Ahab.

And why are you afraid of him?

He and Queen Jezebel want to
capture and kill my master.

Why? Who is your master?

He is... Elijah,
Prophet of the Lord.

And who are you,
our young friends?

Hi. I'm Joy.

I'm Chris.

And I'm Gizmo.

I see you've already met Tobiah.

Come! You can join us.

So, where are we going?

To meet King Ahab.

Ummm, isn't he the one
who wants you dead?

Umm-hmmm.

And we're going to meet him?

Umm-hmmm.

Okay, dumb question. Why?

I've got a challenge
for him... a contest.

Israel has been worshipping
the false god Baal,

and the Lord will prove
that He and He alone

is the one true,
all powerful God.

If he's all powerful, why
doesn't he end this drought?

He will.

- Really? When?!?
- Soon.

But first Israel must turn away
from their false gods

and back to the Lord God,
the Creator of the universe.

Elijah! Now, what about Baal?

What kind of powers
does he have?

Powers?

Yeah, you know, can he
control the rain,

or shoot lightning, control
time, replenish health points?

What?

They take a rock, carve
it into an idol and call it god.

But it is still just a rock,
shaped by human hands.

The idols have mouths,
but cannot speak;

and eyes, but cannot see.

Anyone who makes and
trusts in them

will end up as helpless
as the idols are.

ELIJAH!!!

Oh no. Let me guess.
That is AHAB!? Aaaaahh!

Mmm-hmm.

Is that you,
O troubler of Israel?

Ohhh. I'm just going to
come back here and hide behind

I mean, PROTECT you guys.

I have made
no trouble for Israel.

You and your family are
the troublemakers!

You have refused to obey the
commands of the Lord

and have worshipped the
images of Baal instead.

Call together
everyone from Israel

to meet me at Mount Carmel.

Be sure to bring along
the 450 prophets of Baal

who eat at Jezebel's table.

Hyyaaa!

Game on!

I've never seen
this many people before!

Why hasthe king called

every tribe of Israel here today?

I heard it was Elijah
the prophet who summoned us!

Elijah? Ha!
He's in hiding.

No one has heard from
him in years.

Hear me, O Lord.

Hear me so these people will
know that You are the Lord God,

and that You will turn
their hearts back to You.



I'm not certain
what Elijah has in mind,

but I trust you will be up
for the challenge?

My king, we fear neither
Elijah nor his God.

Whoa! What is that?

It is an idol of Baal.

What if they brought more
than one god, Elijah?

I mean, they could form an
alliance and gang up on you.

Chris, being on the Lord's side
is all you have to worry about.

Not whether their
side is bigger.

How much longer will you try
to have things both ways?

Look! Is that... Elijah?!

He is alive!

If the Lord is God, worship Him!

But if Baal is God, worship him!

I am the only prophet of
the LORD who is left,

but Baal has 450 prophets!

450 versus one?
Elijah doesn't stand a chance.

Bring us two bulls.

Baal's prophets can
take one of them.

Then they can put the meaton the wood

withoutlighting a fire.

I will do the same thing
with the other bull

and I won't light a fireunder it either.

Then you call on thename of your gods,

and I willpray to the Lord.

The god who answers
by setting fire to the wood

is the true God!

Fire, huh? Yeah, I was
almost god of fire.

This contest would have been
over in no time.

Whooossshhh-shhhh-shhhhhhhhh.

Obsessed!!!

You go first, for there
are many of you.



O Baal, we call upon you.

Come down among us!
We plead with you,

mighty god of all
that gives us life.

Come down, O Baal, and
light a fire upon this altar

as a sign to all who stand before you

that you possess the power
of all the heavens.

Giz, see if you can pick up
any strange life-scan readings.

I am happy to report that
there are no life-scan readings

of any kind from Baal's
idol or altar.

We come before you on this
mountaintop, O Baal.

You are great and we are
your humble servants!

Come down and

bring the power
of lightning and fire with you,

for you control all the elements

and we are your humble servants!

Let us honor you. Come
down among us, Baal.

I would have thought

something would have
happened by now.

Pray louder!
Baal MUST be a god!!!!

Maybe he's daydreaming,

using the toilet, or
traveling somewhere.

Using the toilet, or
traveling somewhere.

Grrr.

Or maybe he's asleep, shhhhhh

and you have to WAKE HIM UP!

Yes, or maybe his power
coupling on the negative axis

has been polarized!!! Ha!!!!

Trust me, if he was a robot,

he would be sooo
insulted right now.

- Huh.
- Oh.

Bless only
those who follow you, Baal.

Come down to us, Baal.
Come down, O Baal!

Bring us a sign of
your mighty power.

I hope Elijah knows
what he's doing.

Uh... guys...

What?!

Something bad is happening!

I am getting a life-scan
reading from the idol!

- Huh?!!!
- Oh no!

I think Baal is
coming to life!!!!!

Giz, you're getting
a life-scan reading

from Baal's idol?

Yes, and it appears to be
getting stronger.

Are you sure?!?

I KNEW there were too
many on their side!

Yes, my readings are
getting stronger and stronger

and STRONGER!!!

Now... weaker, weaker
weaker

and gone.
Okay. Never mind.

COME DOWN TO US, BAAL. COME DOWN O BAAL.

COME DOWN THAT WE MAY
WORSHIP YOU MORE!

BRING A SIGN OF YOUR MIGHTY POWER, O BAAL.
COME DOWN TO US, BAAL.

BRING A SIGN OF YOUR MIGHTY
POWER, O BAAL.

COME DOWN TO US,
BAAL.

Nothing happened.
Not even a spark!

Come near to me!

Fill four large jars with water,

and pour the water over the
offering AND the wood.

Do the same thing again!

That thing issoaking wet.

There's no way this'llever catch fire.

Now do it a third time!

If Baal could not set
fire to a dry altar,

how is the Lord God
supposed to set fire

to an altar that is soaking wet?

Yeah, why is he
complicating things?

Their god was a no-show.

We just need a little smoke or
something and we win.

But NOOOOO, he has to go drench
everything with water!

O LORD.

God of Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob.

Prove today that you are
God in Israel,

and that I am your servant.

Prove that I have done all this
at your command, O LORD.

Answer me!

Answer me so these people will know
that you, O LORD, are God,

and that you have brought them
back to yourself.

Move away! Let me out
of here! Arrrggghhh!

Sensor Overload!!
Whooo-hooo-hooo-haaaa.

Whoa!!

Amazing!

The Lord is God!

The Lord is God!

The Lord is God!

Praise the Lord.

The Lord is God!

Forgive us for turning from you.

Forgive us, Lord God.

Forgive us, Lord!

Praise the Lord!

Man, I wouldn't
have believed this

if I hadn't seen
it happen with my own eyes.

It is Superbook.
We are going home.

Hey, Alec.

Hey, Chris.
We're setting up a no holds-barred

Battleverse of the Gods
Tournament,

no mortals allowed.

And we want you on OUR team this time.
What do you say?

Thanks, Alec, but...

I'm going to pass.

I think I'm going to try
to let the one true Lord

worry abouthow to be God.

And I'm going to worry about
how to best follow Him.

Uh, not really sure what
you're talking about,

but let me know if you change
your mind. Later!

Hey, quit it!
Uh, Giz, stop.

What are you doing, Giz?

He threw out a Holo-9 game.

So I am trying to find out
who this is,

and what he did with the
real Chris Quantum!?

- Hey! Wait...
- Chris...

Gizmo!

Cut that out!! Gizmo!!

And Elijah went up
to the top of Carmel;

then he bowed down
on the ground.

Then he said to his servant,

"Go and look out
toward the sea."

Seven times Elijah
told him to go look.

Finally the seventh time, the
servant saw a small cloud.

Oh, oh!

There is a cloud as small as
a man's hand

rising out of the sea!

Ha, ha!

Tell Ahab to get his chariot
ready and start for home now.

Otherwise the rain
will stop him!
