The Legend of Hanuman (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 8 - Enter The Void - full transcript

As Angad descends further into darkness, Hanuman faces the evil forces within the vines. At the same time, Jambhvan must show his strength to save his friends.

You all will die

Step away from him, Angad. Now!

I am your prince, old bear
You don't make requests of me

You misunderstand me, child

It wasn't a request!

Did you know he could do that?

No. But I know I'm never going
to call him "old bear" again

Nirvani, where are you going?

To get help

Things are worse than my uncle thought
The darkness is spreading

Something is wrong with you



Look at me, Prince Angad

Show me your eyes Let me see

Hanuman, where are you?

Are you ready to play our game,
little vaanar?

Who... what are you?

I am the darkness
that extinguishes hope

I am the despair

that sits in the heart
of every creature

Why are you doing this?

My mistress needs you to fail

Ram must never find Sita

Is this how you win your game then?
By cheating? To stop me from fighting?

Your fists won't help you here

For this is the domain of the mind



My mind versus yours

In here, I will crush your spirit,
shatter your hope

And then,
once you are consumed with despair,

you will beg me to end your life

Show me your eyes, Angad
Look at me!

I'll kill you! I'll rip you apart

Patal magic!

You...

Stop him! Hariya is behind this

After him, Nil!

Who knew you still had some fight
inside you, old bear?

Stand down. I don't want to hurt you

I've been fighting since before
your great grandfather was born, boy

You couldn't hurt me
even if you tried

I'm sorry, my Prince. Sleep now

I will free you from this curse

I'm getting too old for this

I can sense your devotion for Ram

You failed him

Because of you, Sita will die

Ravan will kill her

No. I won't let it happen

Once Sita is dead,
Ram will die of a broken heart

And how long will Lakshman live
with his grief after that?

You failed the only mission
that ever mattered in your pathetic life

To think Ram trusted you How sad

Now they will all die

It can't be over. No...

No... no

All because of you

No... no

No!

The vaanars need our help!

Hanuman is trapped inside the vines

Then Hanuman's fate is sealed

If he's not freed soon,
the darkness will consume his soul

Then we must fight

No. I forbid you from helping him

But, King Suketu, he needs us

He serves Ram

The man who destroyed my family

I will see him suffer the same pain

No

Punish me if you must,
but I will help the vaanars

Then you're a fool
The evil is too strong. You'll die

Better to die defending our future

than to live trapped
with the ghosts of our past

Without the power of the mahayagna,

without my power, you have no hope

Uncle, that's where you're wrong
I'm fighting for hope. We all are

Nirvani, please!
You're all I have left

But I want to help them
I love you, Uncle. Goodbye

We got him, old be...

I mean, Jambhvan

And we found this on him

Careful, don't let even a drop touch you

What did you do to him?

Answer me!

You don't understand
I had no choice!

What are you talking about?

Whatever he's afraid of seems to scare him
even more than Jambhvan

And after today, nothing scares me
more than Jambhvan

I was just praising you
No offence

Look!

The vines, they're changing

The evil is getting worse

Oh, no. She'll find me
This was my only chance. Please help me!

Who, Hariya? Who will find you?

Speak before I rip your tongue off

Shurpanakha

Who?

The vines. Look at them!
Run! We must escape!

Run? Where can we run?
It's too late

Ma, I'm scared. What's happening?

It's okay, little one It's okay

Jambhvan, we came to fight with you

What's happened to Angad?

He's been infected by Patal magic
I don't know how to save him

Has Hanuman returned?

No, and I fear the worst
The vines are growing stronger

Then we need to be stronger as well
Follow me

Come back
You can't chop away these vines

Better to try something
than to sit around and wait to die

She does have a point

After you, brother

Hanuman, fight this, my friend
For all of us

It's almost over, now

Give in to the despair

The fear

Everything that lives

is scared of the dark

What is it, son?

Ma, I can't sleep
I'm scared of the dark

There's nothing to be afraid of,
little one

But there are bad things
in the darkness. I know it

The more you focus on those bad things,
the scarier they grow

Come, child

Did I ever tell you that there's a fight
going on every day inside me?

What? What fight?

There is a terrible fight happening
right now between two wolves

One is dark and evil

He is anger, envy,
hatred, greed, sadness...

and fear

One is light and goodness

He is joy and peace, love,
happiness, kindness...

and hope

And every day they are fighting
inside of me

The same fight is also going on
inside you

In me?

And inside every person

Okay, now time for bed

But, Ma, wait. Which wolf wins?

That's easy. The one you feed

Son, in the darkest day,
in the blackest night,

let hope guide you
with its eternal light

What? A smile?

What could you possibly have
to smile about?

You seem troubled, my friend

It's just I'm not sure I can do this

I'm worried
that I'll fail you in this mission

When I'm near you,
I feel such a sense of hope, of calmness

If only I had your strength

Then please, Hanuman,
take my strength

Take my hope
Take my calmness. It's yours

I don't understand

This journey will test you, Hanuman

You will face challenges and darkness
that I would wish on no one

But know this, my friend,
wherever you go, wherever you are,

speak my name
and I will be with you. Always

This is impossible

Ram

Ram. Ram

Ram

Ram

Ram

What... are you doing?
Stop it now!

What? How can this be happening?

I'm in your mind now

The vines are still mine to control

I won't release them
Your friends are still trapped

We'll see about that

But, first, tell me everything
about your mistress

Look! The vines are turning green
again

They're still attacking though

It's Hanuman

It must be. He's winning
the battle inside. We must help him

They can be cut

I just cut one!

Nirvani! Nirvani!

Hold on! Jambhvan, we need help!

Let me go. Save yourselves
Just tell my uncle...

tell him I'm sorry

Sorry for what?

For reminding this old fool
of the man he should've been all along

The mahayagna. Suketu performed it
and gained its power

Uncle!

I'm the one who's sorry, Nirvani

Thank you for reminding me
to hold on to what we have

You need to help Angad
He has been corrupted by Patal magic

I've never seen this before
Can you save him?

I'll try, but this is different
than the vines. Worse. I'll try though

Angad?

What happened?

I feel like I've been hit by an elephant

Make that ten elephants

Oh, that was Jambhvan

He totally crushed you
Took you down with one hit

Jambhvan? What?

My apologies, Prince,
but you weren't yourself

It was a lucky hit

You're burning up

Jambhvan, I don't feel so good...

The curse is too strong
I've slowed it down, removed the rage

But, in the end, it will kill him

There must be something
that can save him!

Jambhvan, look!

Thank the gods
To lose them both would be unthinkable

Hanuman! You're safe!

I knew you would help us,
King Suketu

Without you weakening the evil
from within,

my power alone
would not have been enough

We owe you our lives, Hanuman

We saved each other. Together

Angad?

What's happened to him?

He's been cursed

We have an enemy that's been stalking us
since we left Kishkindha. A powerful one

I know. Her name is Shurpanakha

The evil inside the vines told me
everything about her

Shurpanakha? The sister of Ravan?

She is powerful, yes
But not nearly on the level of her brother

She couldn't have done all this
by herself

Maybe not before,
but her powers have grown

I learned that she trapped
a yogini named Swayamprabha,

in the caves of Rikshabila

She feeds off her power

Swayamprabha has always protected
this forest

Her power is immense

Yes, and Swayamprabha
may also be the only one

that can save your friend

Provided we can save her first

Hanuman, if we go to Rikshabila,

we don't know how much time
it will take there

And we may never be able to find
Princess Sita in time

Which means...

you have to choose

Go to Rikshabila to save Prince Angad

Or find Princess Sita
before time runs out

and let Prince Angad die
