05x17 - Yemandi

Post by bunniefuu »

[SHURI] T'Challa, are
you sure about this?

[BLACK PANTHER] Entering our grandfather's
memories was taxing, Shuri,

but I did not learn
all I needed about the Crown.

And you think Queen Yemandi's
memories will give us those answers?

I believe she is the one who
constructed the containment box.

If she does not know the
Crown's secrets, we will...

[GROANS]
we will...

[GROANS]

[CHUCKLES]

Maybe you want to let the
princess have a go this time, eh?

You're not looking
so good, mate.

I hate to admit it,
but Klaue is right.

You're exhausted. Rest.
You can continue another day.

No. Killmonger is already a step
ahead of us. I must close that gap.

To do that, I must use the Crown to
see what he knows about the past.

[MALE ANNOUNCER ON PA]
Incredible!


Yemandi of Wakanda
refuses to stay down!


- [CROWD CHEERING]
- She's putting up quite a battle, ladies and gentlemen.

But can anyone defeat
the Highland Grizzly?


[SCOTTISH ACCENT] Oy! Did ya
not hear the man, wee girl?

Does the Grizzly have to
teach ya another lesson?

Actually, you have already shown
me everything I need to know.

Oh-ho. Aye.

[ROARS]
[CROWD CHEERING]

[PANTING, GRUNTS]

You are strong but slow.

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

Aah!

[GRUNTS, ROARS]

You're very dangerous...
[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

[GROANING]

- [GRUNTS]
- [GROANS]

...but not very bright.

[CROWD CHEERING, APPLAUDING]

I will have my prize now.

- Give me the Spear of Bashenga.
- Not so fast!

There is a new challenger.

Give a warm welcome
to the mighty Thor!


[CROWD JEERING] That's right. Here I am.
It's Thor Odinson of Asgard.

Yield now, maiden.

You cannot defeat me.
The prize is already mine.

That is what the bear man said.

The Grizzly was not Thor!

I am the Prince of Thunder.
Unstoppable. Unbeatable.

But I shall try to make your
defeat as painless as possible.

Oh? Will you?

Well, same to you!

[CROWD CHEERING]

[BOTH YELL]

[CROWD CHEERING]

[YELLS]

[GRUNTING]

[YELLS]

- [CROWD GASPS]
- Huh?

Hm!

[GRUNTING]
Dance all you like, mortal.

I only need to wear you down
and the prize will be mine!

[YELLS]

Aaah!
[GROANS]

[CROWD GASPS]

[MALE ANNOUNCER ON PA]
Foul! No shields allowed!


Well, he has got that sword...
uh, shovel thing.

Swords and shovel things
allowed!


Someone get her a sword!

No need.

I made my own.

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS, YELLS]

Aah!

[CROWD CHEERING]

See now, maiden?

In case you haven't noticed,
I'm winning.

My name is Yemandi.

And saying the thing
is not the same as doing it.

- [YELLS]
- Huh?

[GRUNTING]

[GASPS]

[GRUNTS]

[CROWD CHEERING]

Yield, if you are smarter
than you look.

Yemandi, that... was... awesome!

Yes, I yield. Absolutely.
Yielding now.

I'll take the prize now,
if you don't mind.

[CROWD CHEERING]

[THOR]
Hey! Nice fighting back there.

Listen, Yemandi... Lady Yemandi.

My father has told me
I need to find a w*apon...

one that is befitting
my station as a prince.

Oh, well, good luck with that.

I've heard stories of the spear
that can pierce anything.

The least you could do
is share it.

I came a very long way
to win it.

But you did not win it.

You should have fought harder.

I would have that spear from
you, my lady. [EXCLAIMS]

In exchange for gold?

What? No.

Why does everybody
want the spear to...

Don't be hasty.

I have a chest filled
with sovereigns.

Five hundred?!

You could buy your own land and a...
thousand goats for that!

Thank you, but no.

I have land
and I don't need more goats.

The spear is not for sale.

[GRUMBLES]

Are you mad?

The Goat Lady
was offering us a fortune!

"Goat Lady"? What? No.

I don't care.
The spear is not for sale.

Five hundred sovereigns!
We could have split it.

There is no "we."
The spear is mine.

But you want to share?
Fine. I will share.

[LOUD cr*ck]

- Your half.
- [GROWLS]

Now, I am very busy.
Please go away.

The Goat Lady
will never buy this.

- You kept the best part. You've...
- [PAPER RUSTLING]

Is that a tracker?
It looks like a tracker.

What are you tracking?
Is there treasure?

Is that why you turned down
the Goat Lady?

You know, where there's treasure,
there are often dragons.

- We could try... [MUFFLED GRUNTING]
- I told you, there is no "we."

You have your half
of the spear, yes?

Now go away.
I have work to do.

[WHIRRING]

[WOMAN ON RADIO] Queen Yemandi,
this is Councilor Achebe.


Please respond. We have been
trying to reach you for days.


Are you there, my Queen?

Yes, Councilor. I am here.
I have really been... occupied.

You are overdue
to return home to Wakanda.


Your people need you.

I know my people are anxious
for my return,

but I am so close to completing
the reason I took this journey.

I have found Bashenga's Core.

Forgive me, my Queen,

but that is a myth,
a folk story.


Oh, it is real.
It is definitely real.

I possess Bashenga's spear.

He hid a map inside
that leads to the Core.

Incredible. If so,

the Core cannot be touched outside
of Wakanda by human hands.


If its powers are unleashed,
it could lead to catastrophe.


You need not remind me

of the dangers,
Councilor Achebe. I...

[BANGING]

What in the world?

My queen, is something wrong?

Are you in danger?

I'm just having a bit of a
problem with pest control.

[GROWLS]

Go back where you came from, right now!
Shoo! Shoo!

You are on some kind
of adventure.

There's nothing I love more
than a good adventure.

So, where are we going?

"We" are not going anywhere.

I am on a mission,
and it does not involve you.

Ha-ha!
A secret adventure!

Even better. I am very helpful when
it comes to secret adventures.

I do not need your help.

I admit you are a good fighter

and your weapons are better than
most I've seen in this realm,

but your toys are no match
for an Asgardian at your side.

And I am the Prince of Thunder,

the most awesome
of all Asgardians.

I am not getting rid
of you, am I?

You are really not.
I think we make...

You can stay,
if you just stop talking!

What are we doing here?

I am working.
You are annoying me.

Yes, but what are
we actually doing?

The first King of Wakanda
was Bashenga.

Once he found a dangerous...
You'd call it a rock.

This rock was so dangerous, he
took it out of Wakanda and hid it.

Then he put the location
of the hiding place on a map

which he hid inside his spear,
which he hid in Scotland.

That is an awful lot of hiding.

Nobody knew where the spear was.

Nobody knew the map
would be inside the spear.

But I did. I found it.

Congratulations?

The map has led me right to
where Bashenga hid the Core,

which is absolutely
not a folk tale at all.

So, your king traveled
all this way to hide

whatever it is
amidst these ancient ruins?

Bashenga was very clever.

But so am I.

Hmm? Ah!

And now the key
from the spear, and...

Bashenga's Core!

Well done, my girl.
You found the Core.

Now you will give it to me.

[GASPS]
It's the Goat Lady!

Yemandi, you remember Goat Lady!

Stop calling me that, you oaf.

She does not sell goats.
I'm sorry.

Again, the spear
is not for sale.

Oh, but finding the Core means the
end of your wandering, doesn't it?

If you give it to me,
your journey can go on forever.

Isn't that what you want?

Yes, I do want that.

- No!
- [GROANS]

Lady Yemandi
is on a treasure quest.

You can't abandon a quest!

Uh, yes. Yes.

Thor is right.
The Core is mine.

You dare defy the will
of Morgan le Fay!

[TOGETHER]
Who's Morgan le Fay?

That would be me,

Mistress of the Mystic Arts,

[BOTH GRUNT]

- [SCREAMING]
- Queen of Shadows.

And soon, thanks to you,
my little wanderer,

Ruler of the World!

[EVIL LAUGHTER]

[BUZZING]

[GASPS, GRUNTS]

The Core! No!

The sorceress Morgan le Fay
took it!

Ugh!

Do not despair, Lady Yemandi.

[GRUNTS]
Together, we can...

[SCREAMS]

Lady Yemandi!

[SCREAMS]

You have been transformed
into a giant!

Thor? Is that you?

Of course it's me.
Who else?

Oh, did the Goat Lady's magic cloud
your vision as well as make you grow?

I am not a giant.

It is you.
You are...

Uh, y-you are a frog.

I'm a what now?

Eh, see for yourself.

[GULPS]

I'm a frog.

I'm Thor and a frog.

This... is... awesome!

[BREATHING HEAVILY, CROAKING] Right.
Glad you are happy with it.

Good luck with your new frog life.
I still have a job to do.

Lady Yemandi, must I remind you
that we are partners?

And we are going to fight
to get that rock back.

And must I remind you
that you are a frog?

No more adventure.
Fun time is over.

Fun time is never over.

Yes, a frog I may be,
a frog I may stay,

but just a frog?
[CROAKS]

[LAUGHS]
Never!

Thor is an Asgardian frog!

And that's different
exactly how?

Well, you see,
Asgardians, we're...

That is... [CLEARS THROAT]
you mortals aren't as...

Uh, we don't...

You may have a point.

[DEVICE CHIMES]

Yes! I have
a hit on the Core.

I have to go. Sorry.
Good luck.

Wait! No!
I can still help you!

[YELPS, SIGHS]

Get down from there, right now.

But I have frog powers.
Asgardian frog powers.

I swear, I...

Asgardian frog powers, huh?

Oh, well,
Asgardian frogs catch flies

to strengthen our tongues
for, uh, lifting heavy objects.

Uh-huh.
And you would know

because you have been a frog
for, what, five minutes?

It's an educated guess.

While I strongly doubt
you have such powers,

uh, I also cannot prove
that you do not.


[CROAKS, GASPS]

Either way,
your size could be useful

if we need to sneak in somewhere
to get the Core.

Yes! I can do that
and more.

I am a frog, but I am as strong
as an Asgardian bilge snipe.

Or an Asgardian bear.

[GROANS]

Or an Asgardian bull.

Ooh. Or as
an Asgardian dragon...

[BUZZING]

You see?
My tracker worked.

The tracker? It was my amazing frog
sense that brought us... [MUFFLED GRUNT]

Shh! Quiet.

- Do you want her to hear you?
- [MUFFLED] No.

Your power is the greatest yet
this world has ever seen.

Now become a perfect crown
as well befits a queen.

What is she doing?

I say we get the Core first,
ask questions later.

Good idea.
But we need a plan.

[FRUSTRATED GROAN] That is the plan!
It is only a few feet away.

I'll leap out and grab it
while you charge the Goat Lady.

[SHUSHES] I am trying to think
of a real plan. [BUZZING]

One that... Thor, no!

[BEAKER CLINKING]

You!

Hello.

Was transforming you into a
reptile not enough of a warning?

Actually, frogs are amphibians.

You would be surprised
how many people

- mix that up.
- Enough!

Perhaps this will get rid of you...
permanently.

[GRUNTING]

No!
[BEAKER SHATTERS]

Ah, I see.

So the other fool
has come as well.

You think you can take
the Core from me?

And save the frog. But mostly,
yes, to retrieve the Core.

You will do neither.
[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

Wait. I want
to rescue you too.

The Core is dangerous. You do not
understand the power it holds.

I think you'll find I know
precisely how much power it holds.

Enough to conquer
this entire land!

All right. You do know.
But you cannot use it.

The power is unstable.
No one can control it.

That's true. On the other hand,
no one else is Morgan le Fay.

[GRUNTS]

[LAUGHS]

- [THOR GRUNTS]
- [LAUGHING]

[GRUNTS]

Like you, my little wanderer,

I've been collecting powerful
artifacts from all over the world.

But the Core is the most
powerful of them all.

[GRUNTS]
Give it to me!

You Wakandans.

Oh, yes.
I know of your little nation.

Always hiding your light
under bushels.

But what's the point of having fantastic
mystical power if you don't show it?

What have you done?

[CHUCKLES] It's not what I've
done but what I will do.

With the power of this Crown,

Morgan le Fay
will rule the world!

I liked her better
when she was Goat Lady.

[LAUGHS]

Thank you, Yemandi, for telling everyone
everywhere what you were looking for.

If it weren't
for your wandering,

I would never have found
something so magnificent!

[ASCENDING WHIRRING]

I will rule the world!

All who resist me
will be crushed from above!

- The castle is flying.
- Huh?

I know I said
we were not partners,

but I was wrong.
I do need your help.

But the Goat Lady has
overwhelmed us at every turn.

Now her magic
is even more powerful.

[SCOFFS] Magic. It is
kind of a science.

I think I can reverse everything she
has done with the spells in that book.

You need the book?
Then you shall have it!

Ugh!

See? Told you catching flies
strengthens the tongue.

And creates a lot of frog spit.

Oh, no.

What is it?

Do you have to do
something... distasteful?

Yes... I really do.

Ugh. This.

[GASPS]

Mmm...

Mmm...

Well. That was, uh...

That... was... awesome!

No. [SHUSHES] No time for
"awesome" right now.

Now, you go get her
while I get the Core.

- [LAUGHS]
- [WHIRRING]

With this power, I shall...

[DISTORTED WHIRRING]
Wait! What is happening?

The power is...
No! Too much!

Too much!

I have to get it off of her.
It needs to go in this box.

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

I will take this.

And you will take that!

You! Wakandan!

You and your Asgardian menace
have no idea what you've done!

The castle will crash
without me to guide it.

You can't control
the Crown's power!

I don't need to control
it, only to keep it safe.

Keep it then.
Fall to your doom.

You may have defeated me here, but
my shadow will yet cover the world!

What do we do?

Race you down?

[GRUNTING, WHOOPING]

[GRUNTING]

You won't be winning
that easily.

[YELLS]
[GRUNTS]

Whoa. That is
one tough castle.

And we've won!

That... was... awesome.

So, where are you headed to now?

Another great adventure?

No more adventures
for me, I'm afraid.

It's time for me to go home.

The sea will miss you,
Lady Yemandi.

And maybe a certain
Asgardian menace will too.

You know, for someone
who is completely oblivious

and a little crazy,
you are actually sweet.

I am happy knowing that this adventure
will be the source of many heroic legends.

They will call it "The Awesome
Adventures of the Warrior Frog

and the Fighting Princess."

Well, actually, I am a queen.

The queen. Of Wakanda.

And as queen,
I have responsibilities.

Getting the Crown home safely...
that is a big one.

May I... send you
a raven sometime?

Yes, of course.

I mean, Wakanda
uses radio waves,

but I guess a raven
would be nice.

[WHIRRING]

Farewell, Queen Yemandi.

I will remember you always,
Thor Odinson of Asgard.

[GROANING]

T'Challa, are you all right?

Just zap him with
one of your gadgets.

That'll clear out
the cobwebs, eh?

[GRUNTS]
There is no need for zapping.

I am... [PANTS] I am fine.

I believe I have learned what I
needed from Yemandi's memories.

So, that was it? We have what
we need to defeat Killmonger?

Not quite yet.

I must go back further.
