02x15 - Final Cut

Warner bros.

I'm afraid there was no other choice.

The solar cells had to be replaced.

And it simply can't be done in the air.

But don't worry, it's all modular these days, and we'll be off the ground in less than 10 minutes.

Any time is too long.

See? All done.

[Telephone rings]

What? I'm in Gotham.

Have you located the target? Not yet.

It's not easy when you're always looking over your shoulder.

You're letting your fear make you too cautious.

Me? You're the one who spent the last afraid to land anywhere because she might find you.

She already got to carima.

No! In Lisbon, 3 days ago.

We're the only 2 left.

Unh! Hold on.

Devon? Devon, what is it? What's going on? It's her! Curare! Not my w*apon of choice.

But I won't hesitate to use it.

You'll find I'm not as easy as your other targets.

What-- society of assassins trained us both well, curare.

No one can match your skill with that sword.

But I'll never let you get close enough to use it.

Wha--?! Uhh! [Gasping and coughing]

Can you hear me, sir? Sir? Just like all the others.

She's wiped his mind.

Max: So, the big guy's in Malaysia? Terry: Yup.

Taking care of some personal business.

You do know they've just had a major typhoon in that area.

Yeah.

No way for him to give me any orders.

Now, ain't that a shame.

Aren't you worried? Believe me, Max, this is not a man you worry about.

I wasn't talking about him.

Hey, I can handle Gotham for a few nights without his help.

Whoa! That almost scratched the paint job.

No need for v*olence.

I was merely trying to get your attention.

You've got it.

Who are you? Mutro botho, at your service.

For a price, of course.

Botho, I've heard of you.

You're a member of the society of assassins.

I am the society of assassins.

No need for that.

If my mission had been to k*ll you, you would be dead already.

No member of the society has ever failed.

Except one.

Yes, because you stepped in to stop her.

In a way, this is all your fault.

What is? When you prevented curare from k*lling her target, the punishment for her failure was death.

Unfortunately, we underestimated her.

She fought back.

One by one she hunted us down.

I am the only one left.

And you are the only one who can keep me that way.

And why should I care to? Because, when she has finished with me She will come after you.

Thanks for the warning.

I'll be sure to look for your name in the obits.

I thought you might feel that way.

So I took the liberty of providing a little incentive.

[Beeping]

I've planted a b*mb in your city.

A rather large one.

Set to go off unless it receives a properly guided signal from me, every 12 hours.

Go ahead.

Take it.

It won't do you any good.

Only I know the codes.

I'm not an unreasonable man.

You help me defeat curare, and I'll disarm the b*mb.

If not--if curare gets to me first--boom! Gotham experiences a sudden population decline.

How much time do we have? Curare's last sighting puts her at least I'm going to meet mutro outside his hotel in about half an hour.

What's the plan? He's the bait.

When she shows, I'll get in between them.

This b*mb business could get bad.

I'm gonna need your help, Max.

You know you can count on me, ter.

What do you want me to do? You've got to find a way to contact my partner.

Oh.

I never really told you his name.

Wait, let me guess.

Just a sh*t in the dark here.

Could it be Bruce Wayne? I guess it wasn't very hard to figure out.

Like, the first day.

But even if I get through to Malaysia, they've been relocating tourists all over the islands.

He could be anywhere.

Just keep trying.

I have faith in you.

I have another idea.

Why don't we do an end run around your assassin friend? See if we can locate the b*mb.

You keep him on the run while I search his hotel room.

There is no "we" here, Max.

I don't want you anywhere near this.

These are professional assassins.

You make a mistake around them, you could get hurt.

And if the b*mb goes off, I could get dead.

That's why you've got to find Bruce.

Ok? Batman: I'm here.

Above you.

I don't see you.

You're not supposed to.

Feel better? I'll feel a lot better when we're out in the open.

I don't like enclosed spaces.

Not when I'm the quarry.

Max: I can't believe my dad took both key cards.

Not a problem, miss.

[Clears throat]

Oh, uh Thank you, miss.

There goes my lunch money.

If I were a critical life-saving clue, where would I be? Hmm Hey.

Hah! Yeah! [Cell phone rings]

Speak.

Max, it's me.

Any luck with Bruce? The satcom's down for at least another hour.

I got the computer running an automated search just in case.

Why? Aren't you at home? Max, what's going on? Let's just say I'm doing a little search myself.

Tell me you didn't go to his hotel room.

This isn't a game, Max.

I want you out of there--now! Hey, your suit doesn't give you barking rights over me, mcginnis.

Besides, as long as you got your eye on him, I don't see the danger.

[Gasps]

Max! What's happening? Aah! Aah! [Ear-splitting scream]

Mutro, curare's at the hotel.

My friend's there.

Then your friend is already gone.

I have to go back.

Fool.

Max! Max! [Whimpering]

Oh, Terry.

Ohh[Crying]

Are you all right? Yeah.

As soon as she got a good look at me, she backed off.

Aren't you gonna yell at me? I figured you already got the message.

I gotta get back.

You go home and stay there.

And one more thing Yeah? Don't call me Terry.

Mutro: Batman.

Come in.

I can't stay hidden forever.

Batman! [Rustling]

Lesson number one, curare: Always hold onto your w*apon.

Hyah! Huh? No! [Gasping and coughing]

He's alive, yeah, but Nobody home.

[Beeping]

You sure his mind is wiped? Believe me, he's broccoli.

It's all my fault.

If you'd been there, instead of running off to protect me Listen, Max, ever hear the expression, "live by the sword, die by the sword"? Mutro was an assassin.

He made his own bed.

Besides, we got bigger things to worry about.

[Beeping]

Ohh.

Feeling guilty isn't gonna help anyone.

Come on, Max, what can we do with it? This is a broadband transmitter.

It's not gonna help us find the b*mb.

Max: Hmm Hmm? "Hmm" is good, right? It's a start.

The specs on this model say the signal has a radius of only 2 Miles.

Well, how does that help us? This is why you should try to stay awake in geometry, mcginnis.

You saw him activate it here.

Then you would've been at the park when the timer runs down, so he would have to set it there.

Then he must have set it at least once at the hotel.

And voila! Math is once again your friend.

Well, that's about If we had a couple of days, we might be able to find the b*mb.

Wait.

I've got mutro's cash card.

It'll tell us where he's been spending money the last few days.

This is the only location inside the highlighted area.

And he visited it twice.

That's gotta be where it is.

The Gotham museum of armaments? What better place to hide a w*apon than a place that's filled with them? Let's go.

No way.

twice the chance to find the b*mb.

You need me on this one, Terry.

You know you do.

Max: Ow! Could you get your ear out of my eye? I warned you.

The Batmobile wasn't meant to carry 2 people.

All those billions, and you think he could afford a backseat.

Unh! Oh, man, where to begin? With this.

Frequency scanner.

It locates hot receivers.

That batcave of yours is like one big toy chest, isn't it? [Beeping]

[Beeping faster]

It's just one of the guards' communicators.

Ahh, at least we know it works.

Batman! Catch! Keep looking! Oh, man.

Nothing like a little pressure.

Curare, listen to me.

Mutro planted a b*mb.

If it goes off, it'll k*ll thousands--including you.

Or don't you care? I'll take that as a no.

Sorry, buddy.

Augh! Oh, great! Aah! Oh, no! This is hopeless.

I found it! Can you disarm it? If I had some help.

You're on your own, Max.

Oh, no, I don't know, I don't know.

Max, we're running out of time here.

Flack it! [Groaning]

Max? Can we go home now? How do you do it? Do what? This hero thing.

It's easier for me.

I got the suit.

No! How do you save the world and not tell anybody? I can tell you.

You can tell me.

That's why I'm glad you found out Partner.
