Wellington Paranormal (2018–…): Season 3, Episode 5 - The Revengers - full transcript

Just get you to stay with your car,
please ma'am.

So we're just doing some regular
policing today.

Um, we've pulled this young woman
over for speeding.

Over here please.

Um, discovered that someone in a car matching this
description has been, actually been charged with,

vandalising letterboxes in the area
earlier today.

We've got reason to believe you've
attacked a letterbox in the area.

- Wasn't me.
- No?

You've got a baseball bat
in the backseat here.

No. It's a softball bat.

Is it your softball bat?

No.

What's it doing in your car?

Not my car.

It's not your car. So you just got
out of someone else's car?

No.

Well,
we just saw you exit that vehicle.

So, what's going on?

What were you doing in this car?
Breaking and entering?

- No.
- Are you stealing it?

No.

What were you doing in there?

No.

That's not actually an answer
to that question.

- Do you live in this area?
- No. Just visiting my ex.

So would your ex happen to be the person that
lives at number 12 with a smashed in letterbox?

Who reported this terrible crime?

Well, we are not at liberty
to divulge that.

It was Neighbourhood Watch,
wasn't it?

OK. So this young woman will get
a, ticket for speeding,

and also for driving without
a Warrant of Fitness.

- Um, and I mean, as for...
- O'Leary?

Hang on a second, Minogue.

As for the letterbox,
what will happen...

Yeah. O'Leary?

I'm just trying to tell them
about the...

Yeah.

Is that a meteor?

No. It's a meteorite.

What's the difference?

A meteor vaporises
in the earth's atmosphere.

Is that a police matter?

It could be putting people in danger.

So I guess, yes. Yes, it is.

You just,
hope you've learnt your lesson.

And we will
get in touch with you later.

So, we followed the meteorite
and, as it happens,

we're the,
first officers on the scene.

- First on the scene.
- Yeah.

I mean, obviously our main priority
is public safety.

Um, we've spoken to these people,
and no one seems to be hurt.

So now we'll just, continue sectioning off the
crater and then go and talk to some of these,

other nearby residents.

Hey, guys.
Come over and have a look at this.

You won't get a chance
to see this very often.

No. No, no, no. Stand back
please. Stay back. OK?

Actually, it's probably better
if you just stand back, all right?

This is dangerous. That's why
we've got the tape and the cones.

So just back it up a bit.

Until we bring the tape round to that
side, just imagine there's tape over there.

- I haven't got enough tape.
- What?

I underestimated the amount of tape
that we're gonna need.

Well, where's the rest of it?

Neighbourhood Watch.

Hello, sir.

I'm Officer O'Leary.
This is Officer Minogue.

Are you guys here about the tree?

The one that drops all its leaves
all over my lawn?

No, no.

No, we're here about the meteorite from outer space
which just landed in front of your house over there.

It takes a bloody meteor
for you lot to turn up.

You don't care about my leaves,
but you care about the meteor.

It's actually, mate,
it's a meteorite, not a meteor.

OK? There is a difference.

What is the difference?

Um...

Well, probably a more important
question is can you tell us what happened?

OK. Well, I was working on
my fuse box, because...

I'm an electrician.

Electricity Bill. My name is Bill.

Rates are on the back.

Felt this, you know, this electrical surge
just come through me, you know, it was...

Electrocuted yourself?

No, just,
it was a surge that came through me.

- Right.
- But...

Didn't hurt myself
because, you know, I'm quite tough.

I did hear screams coming from Molly
next door, though.

You all right, mate?

I'm fine.
Are you guys all right?

- Yeah. Good thanks.
- Yeah. We're good.

- OK.
- Thank you. Thanks for your help.

I was just patting Chairman Meow
when it struck.

And he leapt off my lap,
ran away, terrified.

He sprayed his scent on my carpet.

Is Chairman Meow your husband?

I'm pretty sure it's her cat.

How did your cat become a Chairman?

That's just the cat's name.

First name, Chairman.
Last name, Meow.

- It's...
- Can you help me find him?

Yeah. They probably won't.

Maybe we won't.

I mean,
I reckon he's really terrified.

He's probably under
the house or something.

Can you please help me find him?

I might have a few leads, Molly.

That's an electrician joke.

Yeah. We got it.

- Explain it to me later.
- I will. Yeah.

Puss, puss, puss, puss, puss, puss.

Chairman Meow.

- Puss, puss, puss, puss.
- Here kitty, kitty, kitty.

Puss, come.

Meow.

Puss.

Here, puss, puss, puss.

Here, puss, puss, puss.

Puss, puss.

Here, kitty.

- Hi.
- Hello.

Hi. Are you here to talk to her about
putting her nonorganic rubbish in my skip?

Clearly labelled
"organic materials only"?

No. Don't talk to George.

He's not a part
of our Neighbourhood Watch group.

He's part of the community
though, isn't he?

You just stick to your stupid roses,
George.

These roses win prizes.

- Yeah, so? Second prizes.
- Ooh.

- Well, that's not actually that bad.
- Second is quite good.

Let's just de-escalate
the situation please.

OK? Stop.

Look. Got to, we need to try
and make sure that this cat's safe.

Chairman Meow.

OK.

YOWLS

Her adrenaline
is obviously still pumping.

Yeah.

Thank you.

See you, George.
Good luck with your roses.

Be careful, guys, that looks heavy.

I'd give you a hand
but I stuffed my back.

Playing touch.

Just mind the paintwork, guys.

Good on you, guys. Thank you.

Well, don't touch me.

You'll have radioactive stuff on you.

O'Leary?

Morena, team.

A lot of excitement

following yesterday's
meteorite crash.

I just want to acknowledge
O'Leary and Minogue

for being first on the scene.

Just,
right place at the right time.

Yeah. It was luck, really.

Some pretty excellent driving
and quite a lot of skill.

Probably dedication
and, to, you know, police work.

- And skills, obviously.
- Yeah, skill.

Sure. However, conversely,

none of you were first on the scene at this morning's
attempted robbery at the Clark Street Bank, were you?

It was foiled by a group of potentially dangerous
vigilantes, who restrained the assailant,

and left this note.

Well, that's nice.

Well, yeah...

But unless it's like that
kind of sarcastic, "You're welcome".

Whether they meant it sarcastically
or not, remains to be seen.

But as far as I'm concerned,
you're not welcome, any of you.

Now we do not want to encourage
these types of vigilante acts.

There's potential it could be become unsafe, and
it's our job to enforce the law, not the public's.

All right?

Now go out there and do your jobs.

Thank you very much. Dismissed.

Now, take a look at these
images from the security cameras.

Now this is the,
attempted liquor store robber.

Very blurry.

I can't, it's, I can't really see it.

You guys might want to physically
zoom in yourselves.

So, Zoom in.

Zoom times two.

Times three.

Yeah. That should do it.

So it appears that the vigilantes have, restrained
this, woman here using a mixture of wire

and electrical tape.

You can't quite make it out,
but underneath the restraints,

it appears that she has
slash marks on her clothes.

Next image.

This is the bank robber.

Notice that he appears to have, electrical burns
here, around the neck, and the abdomen area.

We don't have any footage of
the, vigilantes that did this,

because apparently the rest of the security footage
was wiped, as if by some huge electrical surge.

- Is that normal?
- I reckon that's suspicious.

It is.

So I want the two of you to get out
there and find out what's going on.

Yeah. And when should we do that?

Probably right now.

Copy that.

So it appears these potentially dangerous
vigilantes have, in fact, foiled another crime.

We're just going to talk
to this young man over here.

Can you look at me
when I'm talking to you, please?

I'm, I'm a bit, a bit stuck here.

- OK. Well, look.
- Can't you see?

Yeah. Well, I can see, and that's
what I want to know more about.

Can you describe what happened
please? What's happened here?

This old lady.

No. Old woman.

That's right. Woman, a better word.

No. Old, old lady.

Right that down, as is. Old lady.

Old, like you.

Can you describe the...?

- Excuse me.
- Well, hang on a minute.

- Well, there's, no...
- So you think I look old?

Yeah. Ancient.

It's the hat makes me look old.

Do you think if I had a moustache
I'd look younger?

This is not really helping
with the investigation. OK?

But just while we've got him here,
while we've got him here.

You guys, OK, look. I can see,
there's a bit of tension here.

OK. All right. We'll talk to you
later. We'll talk to you later.

So you just do the notes.
And we'll talk to this guy.

Can you describe this lady to me
please?

Yeah. She was furry.

- Like a cat.
- A cat.

- Like, meow.
- Like, meow.

OK. And then what did she do?

She vomited on me, like this.

All this came out.

OK, that's a lot to come out of
a, of a potentially elderly woman.

Um, so we probably need to look for
her as well, to make sure she's OK.

Anything else?

Her old Boomer mate,
he electrocuted me.

What did he electrocute you with?

His hands.

Come on, mate.

Electricity came out of his fingers.

Yeah...

Sure, it did.

OK. Well, again,
we certainly don't...

I'm not lying. I don't lie.

OK. Did you do this?

No. It wasn't me.

OK. So this spray can is not yours?

No, no. Not mine.

OK. That red stuff on your hands,
someone else did that, did they?

- Yeah.
- OK.

I mean, it is quite good that this, petty
criminal has actually been apprehended.

Um, but we strongly advise that the public
leave the crime-fighting to the professionals.

Yeah. Or us.

I mean, you can't just
go around electrocuting people.

No.

I mean, we tase people.

Well, that's true.
But we're the police.

Yeah.

Electrocuting people
should be special just for us.

No.

Tasing should be only deployed in threatening
situations by trained individuals.

You can put it that way.

But essentially, it boils down to

we get to do the electrocuting,
no one else.

I, I really don't think that's
the point of having the taser. OK?

Well, no. It's the last resort.

I mean, it's the last line,
last line of defence.

- Yeah.
- OK?

Yep. But...

So it's not really
about the electrocution, is it?

No, no. Well, it's...

I mean, that's, it's not like, "Ooh. I
know what we could have as police."

Yeah.
It's interesting, though, isn't it?

Because it's the last line of defence,
but it's the only weapon we've got.

So it's also the first line
of defence.

I disagree, because what our,
what's our number one weapon, Minogue?

- We've talked about this.
- Baton.

No. It's the ability
to talk to our community.

- Yeah...
- OK?

And, and reason with people.

OK?

Negotiate. All of those things.

Yeah.

That's the number one weapon -
communication.

- So, first weapon is our mouth.
- Yes.

And the second weapon
is the electricity gun.

So, due to possible radiation, we're
wearing police-issue hazmat suits,

to protect us from cosmic rays.

It could be highly dangerous,
I cannot stress enough.

Until we identify the energy signal,
please do not touch the meteor, Parker.

Don't touch it.
Don't touch it, Parker.

- Parker.
- Here we go, Sarge. There's your cup of tea.

I just, just told you
not to touch it. Wait.

- What?
- How do you feel, Parker?

I've been struggling lately,
but I think I'm getting through it.

- Thanks for asking.
- Not that.

Do you feel different in any way?

Um, no more than normal.

Where, where's your hazmat suit?

I got noodles on it.

Well, go get it on, please.

OK. Sure. Sorry, sir.

- Yep.
- Right.

I mean, it's just a theory, but is it possible
that these cosmic rays from the meteorite,

have given people, like, some sort of
weird super powers during the shockwave?

Well, if this meteorite could give people super
powers, I'd be very interested in witnessing that.

Sorry to interrupt.

Yep.

Um, Sarge, I've just got a report
that might be of interest.

Um, "a burglar at a pharmacy in Naenae" and a
couple minutes later "super heroes fighting."

"A burglar at a pharmacy in Naenae".

Thought it might be connected?

Maybe, maybe not?

All right. Good work, Parker.

The two of you, get over to Naenae,
and check that pharmacy out.

- Copy that.
- Yep.

We've had a callout to this pharmacy, where
there's an attempted burglary taking place.

But, looks like the would-be offender
has already been taken care of.

- Hey.
- G'day, mate.

- Hello.
- Um, what's going on here?

Well, I was just rob...

Looking, for some hair products.

Were you gonna say, "robbing"?

Yeah. Were you gonna say, "robbing"?
Because this is closed.

- Yes, I was.
- Yes.

You realise that you can go
to jail for that?

It's illegal.

Well, those super heroes stopped me.

Super heroes?

This Cat Lady pounced,
like, twenty feet and scratched me.

Ooh.

This weird girl just kept on making random
comments, and then this guy electrocuted me.

It really hurt. But it was cool.

What did they use to electrocute you
with? Was it Electricity Hands?

Electricity Hands.

Sounds like it could be
the same people.

They took a while, because a lot of people
around wanted to get selfies with them.

Selfies?

Yeah. Well, actually...

I got a selfie with them too.

They took it on my phone.
Want to have a look?

Yeah. That's the one.
That's just after they caught me.

Look. It's the Neighbourhood Watch.

- Yeah.
- Yeah. They were dangerous.

But cool.

"Dangerous but cool".

I know. I mean, look, have we ever been asked
for selfies, when we've been solving crimes?

Absolutely not.

Not once
have we been asked to take a selfie.

I've tried to take a selfie,
with the criminals.

Minogue.

And their lawyers say, "illegal",
"breach of human rights", "off the force".

Well, I mean, but also... Yeah.

It's not, it's just entirely
professional, you know?

No. Well, yeah...
The point has been made.

But the point that I'm making is they
never want to get selfies with us.

Well, maybe we should just not want
to get selfies with them, anyway.

I mean, it's like, those vigilantes
are just trying to do our job.

Exactly. They're usurpers.

We've been usurped.

You know what?

We would have got to that pharmacy,
and stopped that robbery.

- Absolutely.
- Why didn't you, though?

Because, we were on another job,
actually. OK?

But they've got Electricity Hands.

OK. Well, you know what?

For starters, OK, it's raining.

Electricity and water do not mix, OK.

So any intelligent vigilante
would actually know that.

I mean, if I knew that I could just
go out there and solve crimes,

I would have done it without
spending any time at police college.

What? Well, no.
That makes you as bad as them.

Or as good as them, because
they're being pretty effective.

By touching the meteorite with his bare hands, it
would appear that Constable Parker has become magnetic.

Mostly with cutlery.

And keys.

It seems the same thing has also affected
those in the immediate shockwave of the crash.

Radiation has mutated them on a
cellular level, making them superhuman.

Sarge.

As you can observe here,
this phenomenon.

We're actually gonna take Parker
back to the lab and run further tests.

Well, now he's just showing off.

Minogue and have also had
close contact with the meteorite.

Is it possible that it could have made
them spectacular in some kind of way?

Do you reckon I'd look good
with a moustache?

No.

Are you sure?

Imagine it?

I'm trying really hard not to.

See.

Excuse me, sir.

You're under arrest.

Excuse me, sir. You're under arrest.

See, that was weaker.

Yeah. I know.
But I feel weaker without it.

Slow down, O'Leary. Look.

What's that?

Is that fence on fire?

What does it say?

"Pick up your dog poo".

It's good advice.

Help. Help.

They're after me.

Who are?

- The, the...
- Looks like rain.

These people,
they've got super powers.

They attacked me because
I, I forgot to pick up my dog poo.

Dog poo?

Why do you own one of those?

- Just get in, get in.
- Go, go!

Yeah. Hey, we're going.

This Cat Lady scratched me, and, and there was
this ghost, he was trying to electrocute me.

Sounds like those
vigilantes are at it again.

And they've ripped up
his jazzy outfit.

No, no. Just this shirt.
I bought the jeans pre-ripped.

Well, I want the number of that place, because they
shouldn't be selling clothes in that condition.

- OK.
- Look, we need to go.

- OK. I am going, all right?
- Go. We need to drive.

You need, you need to stay calm.
OK? I'm going, OK?

So, just don't...

The car has crapped out.

It's too late.

O'Leary, the door is being held shut,
as if by some supernatural force.

- Well, now I'm panicking.
- OK, there's no need to panic. OK?

Stay calm. All right?

Why is everybody saying the word
'panic'?

Because people are panicking,
and they need to stay calm.

OK? Don't you start panicking?

ALL YELL OVER EACH OTHER

Help me. Help me. Help me.

ALL YELL OVER EACH OTHER

Where did he go?

Up that alleyway.

- Pursuing on foot.
- Pursuing on foot.

He went down this alleyway.

There they are.

Stop. Police!

The Neighbourhood Watch group.
We met yesterday.

No, no, no. We're the Revengers.

I believe that this meteorite could
hold the key to defeating the Revengers.

Perhaps it's some kind of Kryptonite?

If we can somehow reverse the polarity of the
energy signal, not quite sure how you do that.

Still no suit, Parker?

I couldn't fit it over
all the cutlery.

But I think the damage
has been done anyway.

I mean... See? Nothing.

Parker, your powers are intensifying.

We definitely need to get you
to these Revengers.

You might be the only one who can stop
them, if you can harness your abilities.

I think I can.

Give me my, give me
my watch back please, Parker.

I don't know how, Sarge.

Well, just, look, harness it.

Harness it.

This is not an easy one to explain.

Well, basically an overzealous Neighbourhood
Watch group have mutated to form super powers,

and they've now gotten power hungry.

That's basically it. Pretty much.

Electricity Bill.

I'm Power Man now.

And I've got the power of...

of power.

I'm Cat Lady.

I'm a fur-midable foe
for petty criminals.

That was a terrible pun.

- My puns are better than hers.
- Petty.

Tom Petty was an American
singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist

and record producer.

Hang on, sorry. Who, is she? Sorry?

She's Google Girl.

She's got the power of the internet.

I mean, is that even a power? When
I could just look it up on my phone?

She doesn't need a phone.
That's the point.

That's the thing.
She doesn't need the phone.

Yeah.

The meteorite gave us all different powers, and
we're gonna use them to do what you guys don't do.

Yeah, exactly.

We're gonna protect
the citizens of Wellington.

Hang on a minute.
That's exactly what we do.

- That's our job.
- Not only do we do that, yeah...

- That's our job.
- It's in our job description. OK?

There'd be no point us doing that...
being here if you weren't doing that.

We're not gonna stop
until the streets are clean.

Who's this now?

Hey.

Guys.

- It's George.
- Hey.

I've got super powers too.

I want to join your...

you know, super... hero group, team.

I can make water come out my hands.

I can do jet.

I haven't quite harnessed it yet.

This hand is a bit weaker than my...
this hand.

I've got strength in this jet.

Or I can do mist.

See?

No, George. No, you didn't
join our Neighbourhood Watch group.

Yuck.

Molly.

Agh! My eyes.

I get the picture, you don't need me.

The seat's wet.

Person reported stealing tennis
balls from the Caltex Basin Reserve.

Let's catch 'em and scratch 'em.

No. Stop right there, please.

You've got to stop hurting people,
OK?

I've got a taser, and I'm only
a little bit afraid to use it.

Hey. Yeah.

Excuse me, Bill. That thing you have
is police property.

You can't just keep it up
there in the sky all day.

- OK?
- Hey. You're under arrest.

Sorry, just a second.

GROANS

Yes, Parker. Feel it.

Focus your energy.

Harness your ability.

Use your power!

Power.

It's working.

I'm harnessing. I'm harnessing.

- Ooh.
- Ooh.

Ooh!

Look, we just want you
to stop hurting people.

Unlike you,
we want to save people.

Freeze, please.

Freeze, police, please.

Yeah, freeze.

YOWLS

HISSES

Stop squirting me, George.

I think there's some
romantic history here.

Look, you guys are all breaking the law to
uphold the law, which is against the law.

You can't stop us.

Yeah.

Electricity hands!

It's time you had a power cut, Bill.

Please desist.

I don't think it's a good idea
to mix electricity and water.

You could have had me, Molly.

Molly is with me now, George.

I think they knocked each other out,
O'Leary.

My powers,
they were almost harnessed.

CAT LADY YOWLS

So the self-titled Revengers managed
to, take care of themselves.

Electricity does not mix with water,
is what I've learned.

So I've come to realise where I've
gone wrong with washing the taser.

And I've learned that, you know, having super powers
is not actually optimal for suburban policing.

It was probably better
that we didn't have super powers.

I mean, I guess our uniforms
are a bit like a costume.

Um, and we do have
a, a catchphrase.

Safer communities together.
