01x02 - Pilot Pt. 2

[bunniefuu]

Everett: Wakanda is a small country in Africa notable for never having been conquered in its entire history.

Who's in charge?

He's called the Black Panther.

Amandala.

Black Panther Black Panther, Black Panther Black Panther Black Panther Black Panther, Black Panther Black Panther Get out my way.

General: Yeah, go ahead.

You're breakin' my heart.

And?

Everett: Captain America lost.

Bull! If it makes you feel any better, the Panther also b*at the Fantastic Four in- - Let me tell ya- - Don't sh**t the researcher, General.

Get him out of here.

Hey, what are ya doin'?

Get your hands off me! Do you know who I am?

Let go, I tell ya! You've told us a lot about Wakanda, Everett.

What we don't know is, who is the Black Panther?

The Black Panther is the ruler of Wakanda.

It's a spiritually-based warrior cult.

Sort of like being Pope, President, and the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff all at once.

The Panther is a hereditary title.

But, just so everyone gets a chance, once a year there's a day when any Wakandan can challenge the king for the throne.

Look, son.

It's him.

Announcer: All of Wakanda is watching the annual There are a dozen declared challengers who feel they can defeat the Black Panther.

in unarmed combat and become the King of Wakanda.

But the question on everyone's lips is where is T'Challa, the son of our late king T'Chaka?

He's the people's favorite, but he can't win if he doesn't compete.

Does the Hamlet of Africa have cold feet?

So, who else do you think is looking like a contender today?

Realistically, no one.

No one could b*at the Black Panther.

There hasn't been an upset in decades.

First in the ring is T'Shan, another less popular member of the royal family.

He certainly seems confident.

Panther, Panther! Panther, Panther! Panther, Panther! Contestant number two.

Ooh, that's a big one, K'Teah.

Truly M'Shula.

With those muscles, he must be a miner.

Okay, even if the Panther loses, there's no way that big bonehead is taking the throne.

They have a literacy requirement.

Queen: Have you heard anything yet?

No, your highness.

I can't take this stupid ritual every year.

It's too nerve wracking.

Not going is worse than being there.

Perhaps you should visit the princess.

I'm sure she's depressed since you have locked her in her room to stop her from attending the tournament.

Good idea.

Shuri! It's mother.

Shuri?

Princess Shuri.

How did you leave the palace?

Hmm.

The Queen has strict orders that you cannot enter the arena.

Well, I hate to get you in trouble, but I have to go.

Excuse me.

This is not good.

And I need this job.

Announcer 1: Ooh! Not in the face again.

Announcer 2: Aha! I told you he would come to.

Announcer 1: No, I told you.

T'Shan.

Eh, cousin.

Any tips for me?

You can't be serious about fighting.

Oh, yes, I am.

You haven't even finished your training.

Just rest.

We'll be back to bandage her up later.

Excuse me.

Contestant coming through.

Don't leave yet.

I'm about to show you what a Black Panther- Man: Incoming! Get of me.

I'm supposed to go next.

Whoo! The mystery man sure is cocky.

I wouldn't give the Panther a chance to recover after that last guy, huh?

I guess he doesn't want anyone to question his victory.

Huh! Right.

As if.

Get up.

I'm under here.

This is a fight.

Yes, sir.

Who is this masked man?

I was going to do that move.

- Princess.

- When did you get here?

The match is over! Mystery man, remove your mask.

The new Black Panther is T'Challa! Son of T'Chaka! T'Challa! T'Challa! T'Challa! T'Challa! I knew it.

Who else could fight that well but royalty?

You knew no such thing.

I was robbed by my own brother.

Uncle S'Yan, are you okay?

Fine.

Now that I know it was you.

Look at my father.

So happy it wasn't me.

He made sure of that.

It was a fair fight, both T'Challa's and yours.

Shut up! What do you know?

Did you hear?

Your son- Won.

Yes, I know.

It was inevitable.

But why are you sad?

He is ascended to his father's throne.

Making him a better target.

So, what we've got here is a highly militaristic culture with no ties to the United States.

They're a rogue state.

Before you go adding them to the Axis of Evil, I should point out that they have never invaded anyone.

The only time they've taken hostile action is defending they're own borders.

But a regime change could bring about a change in that policy.

Look, I don't want to jump the g*n here, but it's standard operating procedure to have a m*llitary option in place for any potential thr*at to the United States.

Now, I certainly don't want to speak in the place of our recently departed General, but with our m*llitary forces stretched all over the Middle East, do we even have the resources?

You're right, Mr. Ross.

That is not your area of expertise.

You just keep providing accurate information.

Besides, this conflict would not be appropriate for conventional forces.

This is a job for special forces.

Very special forces.

Okay.

Re-animation project test number 56.

After making breakthrough in the re-animation process there were some unexpected setbacks, like extreme melancholy.

Additional lobotomization seems to have this under control.

Now, we're focusing on weapons integration.

I think we've worked out most of the bugs, and the tech will be ready for massive deployment on our next black ops mission.
