05x22 - Atlantis att*cks

[bunniefuu]

- [GROANING]
- [BASK] Your king has been defeated.

From this day forward, you will
all show obedience to Bask.

Well? Kneel!

Still loyal to your brother,
the Black Panther?

He is weak.
He made Wakanda weak.

His fate is decided.

That fate is death.

I could not challenge you
for the throne,

but I found one who could.

And you did the work
to bring her back.

So, know this
with your last breath:

you were bested by me!

[GRUNTS, YELLS]

- No!
- Aah!

[GRUNTING] Wait! What?
What's happening?

- No! Let go!
- Shuri! Clear!

- [GRUNTS]
- Aah!

[GRUNTS]

Stop him! Cut off Klaue's
arm if you have to!

What? N-No, no, no!
No, no, no! Queenie!

All of you!
I-I'm not doing this.

I want you to know
that none of this is my fault!

[YELLS]
I did not do that!

- I had nothing to do with that!
- Come along, Klaue.

- We are leaving.
- You're not going anywhere.

[BOTH STRAINING]

[GRUNTS]

Hi. White Wolf, everyone.

I think my invitation to this
coup got lost in the mail.

[KLAUE] I'm not with them!
I'm not with them!

Quiet, Klaue!

What?

[BOTH GRUNT]

[KLAUE YELLING]

[YELLS]

[ALL GRUNT]

[YELLING]

[GRUNTS]

All right.
You're out now.

You don't need me anymore.

You stay with us, Klaue.

Right now, you remain
my best w*apon.

They're gonna be... They're here.

[BOTH GRUNT]

[ASCENDING WHIRRING]
[PANTING]

[ALL GRUNT]

You're out of options,
Black Panther.

Klaue, can you swim
without your arm?

Swim? But why would...

Oh, no. No, no, no!
Don't you do it!

- Do it! Do it!
- Brace yourselves!

[ALL YELL]

[GROANS, LAUGHS]
Oh, what a rush.

[COUGHING]
Eh?

That is it!

I've had quite enough of this
entire affair, thank you very much!

I only joined the Shadow Council to
expand my business opportunities

and maybe smuggle a little
more Vibranium out of Wakanda

without somebody in black pajamas
punching me in the face!

As far as I'm concerned, the
whole of Wakanda can stay hidden

in this stupid jungle
for all time!

I'm done!

Well, looks like
we finally broke Klaue.

He will return someday.

Forget about him.

Right now, we need
to get Shuri out of there.

Shuri is right where
she needs to be.

Oh, so you got a plan
to go after Bask.

We are not going after Bask.

I'm sorry. It sounded like you just
said we're not going after Bask.

Hunter, Bask
defeated me in combat.

I cannot challenge her again.

I cannot be king again.

Fine. Then I'll do it.

You know the law. Only one of the
royal bloodline may challenge her.

That means it has to be Shuri.

Yeah, but Killmonger's not
just gonna let that happen.

- He'll try and stop her.
- And that is now our job.

If Shuri is to take the throne
from Bask, we must find help.

What kind of help
are we gonna find in here?

[BASK] Princess Shuri,
Killmonger thinks

I should rid myself
of you right now.

Execute you before you
challenge me for my throne.

Would you do that, Princess?

When the time is right.
In my own way.

There is great fire in you.
The same as my own.

Both of us have been saddled
with weak brothers.

Both of them stood in our way.

Now both of them are gone.

You underestimate my brother.

He has only ever worked
to keep our people safe.

He opened Wakanda's doors to the
world and let Atlantis thrive.

Those water-breathers
want to see Wakanda in ruins.

The Atlanteans only want justice
for the death of their king.

Killmonger is responsible for that.

They'll come for him, in force.

They will demand
we give him over.

Allow me to show you
how I deal with Atlantis.

[DOORS THUD]

- Shuri.
- Traitor.

Leaving her alive
is mistake enough, my Queen.

But giving her freedom of the palace?
Far too dangerous.

- She and her brother are...
- She is not your concern, Killmonger.

Do not think that by being my liberator
you are now also my advisor.

Madame Masque,

- is my w*apon ready?
- Nearly finished.

Just another few... [TRILLING]

The Atlanteans. They're
waiting for your response.

Watch, Shuri. Learn.

Wakanda, this is Elanna, Imperator
of Atlantis and Ruler of the Deep.

I demand to speak
to King T'Challa.

T'Challa is gone.

I am Bask.
I rule Wakanda now.

I order you to hand Killmonger
over to us

for the m*rder of my father,
Lord Attuma.

Killmonger is Wakandan and will
not be handed over to Atlantis.

If you will not
give me Killmonger,

then I will give you w*r!

Ten thousand years ago,
I drove Atlantis into the sea.

It seems you have learned
nothing since then.

You see, Shuri?

Your brother's coddling
has let the Atlanteans

grow strong enough
to thr*aten Wakanda.

That time is now over.

I will show you all
a new Wakanda,

where no enemy
will be allowed to thrive!

Bask, you cannot do this!

The Crown is too unpredictable.
Its power cannot be used safely!

The Crown is the Sword of
Wakanda, and I am the heart.

Atlantis has threatened us
for the last time.

[WHIRRING]

Elanna, I have
considered your words.

Here is my answer.

The sea is no longer your home.

It is now a cauldron
of my wrath!

- No! No, you can't!
- It is done.

What is the meaning of this?

- My Lady, look out!
- Aah!

Witness, Shuri.
The end of an empire.

[WHIMPERS]

Princess, Shuri.
There you are.

Where else would I be?

The Dora Milaje won't let
me out of their sight.

The Dora Milaje serve Wakanda.

You must do the same.

By becoming a monster, like you?

Showing mercy to our enemies
makes Wakanda weak.

One day they will rise again, and
again Wakanda will crush them.

Atlantis is not our enemy.

Atlantis is not
anything anymore.

[SCOFFS]
You talk of strength.

You say my brother was weak, but
T'Challa saw something you cannot.

And what is that?

Wakanda, Atlantis...
they're not things.

They're not chess pieces
to take or defend.

They're people who only want
to protect themselves.

Force will be met with more force
because you have given them no choice.

Someday you will
come to see that...

[WEAPONS BLASTING]

What?
What is this?

[ATLANTEAN]
Atlantis, att*ck!

[ATLANTEAN # ] Atlantis, att*ck!
For Attuma!

It is exactly as I told you.

Some of Atlantis has survived
and invaded the city.

Prepare the w*apon
and we will finish them off.

No! You can't fire
into the city!

[GRUNTS] They are going to
destroy our own people!

- Your people!
- Don't blame me.

Blame the Atlanteans.

It was never about them.

It was you!
It's always been you!

You blamed Bashenga,
you blamed Atlantis,

when all this time
the weakness was you!

How dare you!

You look at me and see yourself.

I look at you and I see nothing.

A shell of a woman,
with an empty heart!

My heart burns for Wakanda!

It has b*rned out.

The people who will die from
that cannon... they are Wakanda.

Their deaths
will be by your hand.

Is that who you are, Bask?
[ASCENDING WHIRRING]

[SHIELD CLANGS ON GROUND]

Stop the w*apon.

I am not ready
to slay my own people.

Madame Masque, proceed.

I said, stop the w*apon!
[WHIRRING INTENSIFIES]

- [GRUNTS]
- [KILLMONGER] I overthrew T'Challa

because I wanted a leader with the
strength to make the difficult choices.

It disappoints me, my Queen,
to see you share his flaws.

You never wanted a leader.

You wanted a figurehead
you could manipulate and...

Killmonger, stop the w*apon now!

Ah, my Queen, you cannot stop what
I have already set in motion.

- [CREATURE SCREECHING]
- [BLACK PANTHER] No! But I can!

[BOTH GRUNT]
[SCREECHING]

Hunter, disable the cannon!

I'm just getting to have
all the fun today.

[SONIC SCREECHING]

[SCREECHES]

- [SCREECHES]
- Sorry.

I'm more
the "no strings attached" type.

[GRUNTS]
[YELLS]

But you have a nice flight.
[GRUNTS]

No!

[BOTH GRUNTING]

A new Wakanda is rising...
one where you have no place!

All this destruction...
all because of you!

[YELLS]

Your schemes will
destroy Wakanda!

I am saving Wakanda

by doing what is necessary!

- [GRUNTS]
- Hah!

[BOTH GRUNT]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

[BOTH YELL]

[BOTH GRUNT]

[GRUNTS]

[YELLING]

How fitting your time ends
here, at Bashenga's feet!

It is his weakness
that brought you here, T'Challa.

You are wrong.
[CRIES OUT]

Bashenga was not weak.
[GRUNTS]

He showed courage and sought peace!
[GRUNTING]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

This world belongs
to the strong!

[YELLS]

[YELLS]
[CRIES OUT]

[GRUNTS]

This is my world, Killmonger,

and you no longer
have a place in it.

Black Panther!

[GRUNTS]
Elanna!

You destroyed my city.

My people are scattered across the sea!
[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]
[YELLS]

It was not me!

Bask is the one
who fired on Atlantis.

We can stop her together
if we can...

All of you are guilty
and all of you will suffer!

[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTS]

Out of my way.
I am your queen.

Not my queen.

We don't have time
for squabbling.

We need to shut down the cannon.

The Princess speaks truth.

She has always been
the smart one.

It's too late.
The overload can't be stopped.

The Crown is going to explode
and wipe out the city.

[TIGER SHARK]
I like the sound of that.

Hello, Princess.

You owe me a meal.

[ROARS]
[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTS]

[ROARS]
[YELLS]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Hunter!

[WHIRRING INTENSIFIES]

[GROWLING]
Shuri, stop that cannon!

[BEEPS]

[GRUNTS]

I will pick my teeth
with your bones!

If I had a nickel
for every time...

[YELLS]
[GRUNTS]

[GROWLS]

[GRUNTS]

[SCREAMING]
[LAUGHS]

[GROANING]

I can't stop the cannon
from overloading,

but if I remove the Crown,
I think it will power down.

That'll destroy you.

If I don't,
it will destroy the city.

I have to try.

No. I brought this
upon Wakanda.

Everything I have ever done
was to protect our people.

I will not stop now.

[SCREAMING]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]
Elanna, please!

Stop this!

You and I did not
choose this path.

We do not have to follow it.

You destroyed my city.

Now I will drown yours!

[YELLS]
Aah!

[GROANS, GRUNTS]
[RUMBLING]

[WAKANDANS CLAMORING]

T'Challa, what's happening
down there?

Elanna is flooding the city.

I must destroy her trident,
but I do not know

if I have the
strength to... [YELLS]

The Crown.

It's powerful enough
for him to stop them.

Its power could also k*ll him.

Shuri, you must be strong.

You are Queen of Wakanda now.

Your people must come
before your family.

Hunter, go.

Do what must be done.

[BOTH GRUNT]

[GRUNTS, GROANS]

Special delivery!

[BOTH GRUNT]

That is the second time
you have saved my life today.

Well, glad someone's
keeping count.

Here. From Shuri.

No! The Crown
is too dangerous.

Maybe, maybe not. It's the
only way to stop this.

- Bask says you can do it.
- Bask says?

Hey, things move fast
in Wakanda, huh?

Now put it on. Save
the da... [GRUNTS]

[GROANS]

Wakanda falls today.

All of you will fall!

- Atlantis will...
- [YELLS]

[BOTH GRUNT]

[SCREAMS]

Looks good on you.

[GROANS]

[ROARS]

Hm.

[YELLS]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Aah!

Elanna, you must call off
your att*ck.

Never!

All this... it is exactly
what Killmonger wanted.

We can stop this, you and I!

I don't want to stop it!

Then I must!

What are you doing?

[ASCENDING WHIRRING]

[YELLS]
[GRUNTS]

Forgive me... for doubting.

Challenge me you did...
in your own way.

Let me help you.

No, Shuri.

Our only duty
is to protect our people.

Go. Do your duty.

Farewell, Queen of Wakanda.

There's nothing.
Nothing left.

It's all been taken
from me. Gone!

Lady Elanna, we have survived the
worst the shadows could throw at us.

- We can finally...
- [SHURI] Hunter!

[GASPS]

Hunter!

[CRYING] It's all my fault.

We were just...

He is... gone.

Brother!

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

[LAUGHING]

This is the fate
of all Wakandans.

There will never be peace between us.

Never! You will...

[YELLS]

[YELLING]

[BLOWS LANDING]

[BOTH YELL]

[GROANS]

[WEAKLY] Yes. Do it.

Take your vengeance.

Give me a warrior's end.

[SHURI] T'Challa.

[GROANS]

Justice, not vengeance.
Always.

Bask called me weak because I would
not be a sword against our enemies.

Mercy is our strongest shield
against...

- against...
- I understand.

Tiger Shark has committed
many crimes against Wakanda.

Punish him as you like.

And I promise
to give you Killmonger.

Take him.

Deliver justice to your people.

Deliver peace.

Yes, T'Challa.

Peace.

We have both paid too much today
to not consider it now.

[BIRDS TWITTERING]

You have done well restoring
this place, Shuri.

Hunter always loved
the tree house.

Hunter only loved it
because you did.

But after all
that went between us,

I will miss him.

There's much work
still to be done.

But when we wish to think of
him, this is where we will come.

Very wise words, my Queen.

[SIGHS] I'm never going to get
used to being called that.

- And you?
- [CHUCKLES] What about me?

Now that you are no longer king,
what are you going to do?

I believe I will take some time
to spend amongst our people

and to reflect on all
that has happened.

[CHUCKLES]
Be careful, T'Challa.

It almost sounds like you are going
to retire those claws of yours.

Do not worry, sister.

Being your brother
will always be exciting.

That will not change
now that you rule.

Wakanda will always need
the Black Panther.
