02x08 - Outpost

[bunniefuu]

Did you hear that? Aah! Alvarez! He will be fine in a few hours.

Drop it! I was planning to.

They are free.

Muy bueno.

Providence is now at w*r with the green fist! so make way to start the revolution make way we're gonna have fun tonight make way to start the revolution so make way so make way to start the revolution make way to start the revolution so make way Come on, doc.

Are you serious? Another one? Ouch! Is this really necessary? The rainforest is rife with diseases, poisonous insects, and worse.

I don't want you coming down with anything.

Is he ready to go? As ready as he'll ever be.

He's wondering how come Six doesn't have to get a sh*t if he's also going.

Six is still in New Zealand, dealing with a - Small problem.

- Oh, sure.

Let him deal with the small stuff while I do all the hard work.

We don't have time to wait for him.

You're going solo.

Hey! Where he goes, I go.

Like I said, solo.

Now, this green fist group have been stealing evos all over South America.

We believe they will hit Corazón de Selva next.

The Providence station there has just captured a large batch of evos in the jungle.

Bobo and I are ready to roll.

Be careful.

For all we know, the green fist could be selling evos to Van Kleiss.

I'm ready for carnival! Let's party! The situation down there is complex.

I need both of you to handle the mission quietly and with diplomacy.

I can be diplomatic.

Oh, by the way, you might want to think about switching to low-fat, White.

Starting to look a little Jowly.

Better leave the diplomacy to the smart one.

This is the town? Something tells me they're not in the mood to party.

Maybe a knock-knock joke would lighten things up? You must be Rex.

You're agent Martello? You may call me "Oso," my friend.

White Knight said to send his regards.

Maybe he could come visit sometime, get a little sun, see what it's like in the front lines nowadays? And this must be the monkey.

He does tricks? Hello, señor Bobo.

That's "agent Haha" to you, buddy.

Come.

The station is not far.

Doesn't anybody mow the grass around here? Often.

But the jungle can only be kept at bay, not subdued.

There we go.

Apologies.

The air-conditioning is down again.

Makes our place look like penthouse suite.

But who needs air-conditioning? We're here to work! The kennel is this way.

Most of these os we brought in last week from deep in the jungle.

A tempting target for the green fist.

Whoa.

It's packed in here! What are you gonna do with all of them? The big ones are shipped to larger facilities, like yours.

These smaller ones stay here.

They're really quite harmless, but the world wants evos captured, so we keep them.

Oh, careful! This evo is not like the rest.

Took down six of my agents before we caught it.

Is it really tiny or something? That's strange.

He was here this morning.

It can't have escaped.

Aah! Peekaboo.

Aah! Yah! You all right there, buddy? I think you've both earned that cold drink you wanted.

See? This gig isn't so bad.

Cold drinks, fringe benefits.

It's on the fringe, all right, but I don't see the benefit.

Drink, agent Haha.

Horchata, the rice milk, is good for you.

Besides It's all they serve here.

I think it's pretty good, but how come we can't get any service? We're Providence.

All they know is when there's trouble, Providence is there.

Our relationship with them is, uh, complex.

Complex? We protect them from evos.

You know, this calls for a little diplomacy.

Oh, brother.

Excuse me.

¿Sí? UhUh You don't look like the usual Providence soldiers.

That's 'cause I'm not.

Name's Rex.

Maybe you've seen me on the news? No.

Uh, what's that? The horchata anejo.

It's aged.

Muy sabrosa.

I'll take a pitcher of that.

We only make one pitcher a night.

They have it.

Hey, mind if I try some? It's too strong for you, gringo.

Gringo? Soy Mexicano.

Y tambien eres Providence.

Okay.

Let's see if you can handle it.

Gracias.

Ugh! That's good! Smooth! I don't get what makes it so special.

It's made from rice that's passed through the digestive system of a monkey.

Whoa! Aah! I can't use my evo powers against them! I don't want to hurt these people! I wish they felt the same about us! Oso, you know how to use one of those? The lariat? Oh, yes.

I grew up roping steer on my uncle's rancho.

Rex! El es un evo! So, what do you think of that? Aah! You are like the other Providence agents bad for business! This is where diplomacy gets you, my young friend.

Now, are you up for a stakeout? Not me.

I've had it with this hick town and these ungrateful people.

I'm going home.

But, Bobo, we need you for a special undercover mission.

Please, agent Haha.

You are the key to the entire operation.

Oh, yeah? Well, you could have said that before.

Quiet! I'm trying to free you from Providence.

I am Providence, dummy.

These toys of yours they're for children! Who're you working for? You?! Horchata girl?! What do you think you're doing?! I'm freeing all your prisoners, creep.

Whoa! Scratch marks? Weird.

What the heck did this? Aah! Take a number! I have business with the señorita first.

Aah! Aah! - Hyah! - Aah! Yeah, and stay down! Rex, you okay? I feel fine.

I hope Holiday gave me a sh*t for whatever that was.

For the last time, we don't work for Van Kleiss! The green fist fights for the evos who cannot fight for themselves.

We set them free nothing more.

Just what we need humans for ethical treatment of evos.

Ugh! We were returning them to their natural habitat.

What Providence does is wrong and against the natural order of things.

You're a traitor to your own kind.

That thing you set free its natural order is to exterminate mankind.

It wanted to k*ll you.

Your men are dying because of it.

- I wish I had better news.

- Thanks anyway, doc.

We'll call with updates.

What did she say? The nanites in my system are fighting off the toxin, but that's only slowing it down.

We need to make an antitoxin or or Or se va a morir! In English! In English! It's doing to me what it's done to Valentina's men.

If we don't get that antitoxin soon, they'll die, and, eventually I will, too.

Think I liked it better in Spanish.

If I can get a blood sample off that evo with this, it'll beam its DNA sequence back to Holiday and she'll be able to instantly synthesize an antitoxin.

I want to go.

- You're sick.

- Aah! I'm better equipped than any agent you have, and you know it.

Very well.

You'll come with me and a team of my best men.

You're k*lling him if you do that.

Listen, you need me, Providence man.

I know that jungle better than anyone.

Your big, noisy party will alert that evo.

You won't get within a mile of it.

My men are dying, too.

Let me free! You think I'm going to let you just walk out of here alone? No.

I'm going, too.

Aah! Anything yet? Nothing.

Rex, once you get the sample of the evo's blood for the antitoxin, I'll pick you up in the jump jet.

White Knight wants you sticking to his orders, nothing more capture the evo and bring back the prisoner.

Gotcha.

Orders? Prisoners? You wonder why we're suspicious of Providence.

We're protecting people.

What we're doing is good.

I believe that.

You think I don't believe in what I do? Who decides who's right your White Knight? All we've found out here are goats from the village At least what's left of them.

You all right? I'm fine.

Let's just hope this trap works.

Hey, pal, didn't anybody tell you the trap's over there? Aah! We've caught him! No! You caught me! Big difference.

Aaah! That's it.

No more running.

Hyah! Ahh! Okay, time for more running! Ahh! Adiós! Aah! The toxins are breaking down my nanites! Over here! Come and get me! Don't! It'll k*ll you! You're too ill to fight it! Look, put down the flower basket and trust me.

On my signal.

Come on.

Come on.

Don't you want a nice Rex burger for breakfast? Not yet.

Not yet.

Now! You caught it.

You've saved my men.

We caught it together.

First my cure Now his.

I don't believe it.

This thing it isn't an evo.

The fangs, the toxin The goat! Of course! How could I have been so blind? This animal is a chupacabra! Chupacabra? Isn't that a myth, like Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster? I thought it was only a legend, too.

Providence must have come blundering onto its home turf and captured it.

So What will you do? Only one option, as far as I see it.

Go on.

Get! Get! There are things in this jungle stranger than evos and older than man.

Well, as long as they stay here, we won't have any more problems.

Doc, did the sample beam through okay? I'm synthesizing the antitoxin right now.

It'll be at the base by the time Oso picks you up.

He'll be here soon with the jump jet.

You better get going.

Your orders were to bring me back.

I don't always follow orders.

Thank you.

This still doesn't make up for spitting the horchata in my face.

Ooh, slick.

If it was me, I would have kissed her.

The antitoxin will have you back to normal within the hour.

Now, what happened with the woman? She, uh, got away.

I see.

You're learning, my friend.

It's complex.

A woman like that it makes our problems with evos seem simple, no? Safe journey, my friends.

I hope to see you again.

That makes one of us.

Wait! For your trip! Uh Gracias.

How'd I earn this? I heard what you did.

The chupacabra it stole my abuela's goat.

Providence is going to buy her a new one.

Thank you.

Hey, if that's all it took to make you happy, we would have run off with the goat when we first came to town.

Aah! Aw! Some thanks!
