02x07 - The Creature from Beyond

[bunniefuu]

Bellwood senior village.

May I... oh, hello, doctor.

Yeah, it's been quiet all night.

The residents are all in bed

except for old George.

That's the only name we have for

him.

I don't know.

He's been here since the place

opened back in the ' s.

Yeah, he's ancient.

Bet he's got some stories, huh?

[ Dramatic music playing, swords

]] Uh, I-I'm not sure you should

do that.

]] I found it, squire, and I'm

going to open it.

]] Whatever it is.

]] It bears the seal of the

forever knights, and you

yourself told me it's nearly

, years old.

I'm wagering it's an ancient

cache of alien weapons.

]] That would make sir Cyrus

happy.

Reason enough to proceed.

Now stand back.

Stop!

Something's going wrong!

Unh!

George?

Ben?

Ben!

I'm on it!

You were asleep!

Well, yeah, it's like

: A.M.

More like : A.M.

I felt a ripple in the

manna.

I thought we should check it

out.

I think I felt a ripple

back in my room.

You guys take the manna, and

I'll investigate my bed.

Fine.

You're not driving us down?

The gravel will chip

my paint.

We're setting the hero

bar kind of low tonight.

Told you to take Ben's

car.

Oh, yeah, that's some

rippled manna right there.

Forever knights threw

a party.

With an uninvited guest.

A friend of yours, no doubt.

Hey, it must be

monty python week.

So, which group are you

guys with... Urian, Patrick, the

forever king?

Frauds and apostates, the lot

of them.

I am sir Cyrus, and ours is the

true path, faithful to the ways

of our founder, the

first knight.

Another faction?

I'm gonna have to start keeping

notes.

What tried to break into

your vault?

To the best of our knowledge,

you did.

Sire, a-actually...

silence, squire.

Your king speaks.

You think we did this?

Two of my men are missing,

and you're here.

Now you're going to tell us

where you took them, even if

it's with your last breath.

Wasting your a*mo,

dude.

I'm wearing your armor.

Right. Nobody move...

Or the changeling suffers.

Raise your hands above your

head.

If you say so.

Humongous... oh!

Stay back!

Hey, it's the

middle of the night, I just hit

my head, and you are really

annoying me!

]] Hold fire!

Hey, wake up and stop

fighting.

We have a situation

here, which, by the way, you

caused.

If you want to help fix it,

great.

If not, stay out of our way.

]] Sire, I-if I may be so bold,

these people didn't cause the

accident.

It was sir Reginald.

H-he tried to open it with a

laser drill, and there was an

expl*si*n.

]] Then, for now, we shall

declare a truce.

Who made that thing?

]] The first knight forged the

sacred seal centuries ago.

As to why, well, I was trying to

translate the inscriptions, but

i didn't finish in time.

Maybe I can help.

Gwen.

]] Winston... sir Reginald's

squire.

I...Mean, I was.

Okay, sir Reginald's

squire, you got an explanation

for what happened here?

]] Perhaps the laser struck an

expl*sive on the other side of

the seal?

That tracks.

It looks like it's cracked from

the inside.

]] So, the expl*si*n took down

my knights?

Is that what happened, squire?

]] I'm not sure.

When the energy began to build

up, I, uh... I ran, sire.

Guess we're setting

the hero bar kind of low

tonight, huh?

You're telling me that

even though it's got a big

forever knight symbol on it, you

don't know what's inside?

]] Any records were long since

lost to time.

]] Sir Reginald thought it was a

weapons cache filled with

captured alien technology.

I don't think this is

about technology.

That seal is infused with magic.

]] Preposterous!

A forever knight would never use

magic.

Well, one of them did.

]] Police are reporting several

locals have gone missing after a

blinding light.

Let's go check it out.

Maybe I should stay

here with Winston... try to

translate those inscriptions.

What?! No. Bad idea.

I mean, we're gonna need all of

our firepower with us if we have

to fight...Whatever we're

fighting.

The

dangerous bright light.

Maybe we should call in some

plumbers for backup.

Come on, Gwen.

Kevin has a point.

]] Then we'll all go on the hunt

together.

That was so rude!

Me, rude?

To whom... squire whiffle?

Winston.

I can't bother to

remember.

He's not important enough.

Jealous?

Of what... his dumb

name, his dumb accent, or his

dumb dress?

It's a tunic.

Why are they stopping?

]] We've detected an alien

life-form.

My ultimatrix isn't interested.

I haven't beaten anybody up in

about minutes.

If you don't let that policeman

go right now, that's gonna

change.

]] Fire!

No!

Swampfire!

Hey, when I say

no, I mean no!

You could've hit that

guy!

He's as good as dead already.

Come on!

What are you d...

a fresh mind for the feast.

How may I serve the great one?

Yo, freak show, let

her go!

Don't let it touch you.

Winston!

This is not gonna go

over well.

Are you...

Lousy. Thanks.

Did you notice...

That the creepy-crawly

couldn't mind-control Kevin?

Yeah.

Squire Winston, where are

you?

He's gone.

That creature grabbed him.

Lucubra... that's what

it calls itself.

By whatever name, the evil

has taken my man, and it's your

fault!

It was awful.

I could feel it in my head,

fishing around.

For what?

Kevin's att*ck broke

the connection.

You're welcome.

I know, right?

I feel like driving my brain

through a car wash.

]] No trace of the beast.

If you three hadn't

interfered...

You'd all be in jail for

sh**ting a cop, and the lucubra

would still have your squire.

]] You don't know that.

Sure, I do.

Our way, the innocent policeman

gets to go home to his family

tonight and we still have a

chance to catch the bad guy.

Which would be a lot

easier if we knew more about

that seal your knights found.

]] Here's the lad's rucksack.

It has his notes and the

pictures he took.

We'll do our best.

]] I'm sure you will...

Sorceress.

While she works on that,

how 'bout you take the north

side of the city, we take the

South?

Either of us runs into the

lucubra, let the other one know.

]] Agreed.

And nobody moves in

till we're all there.

]] If my squire is endangered, I

will do whatever needs be done.

Any luck with

those papers?

Winston's notes are

pretty useless.

They're mostly about some

first knight forging that vault

, years ago.

They're all pretty high on him.

Unfortunately, Winston couldn't

read the runes properly.

He really thought it was full of

captured alien technology.

But it was a

monster jail.

This first knight must've

trapped the creature in there.

And they opened the

door and let him out.

I don't think it was a

vault door.

I think it was a mystic seal to

prevent a demon from crossing

between two worlds.

A demon?

Lucubra is a creature

from another dimension.

Good.

So, we know where to send him

back, if we can find him.

That stuff all belongs

to Winston, right?

Maybe you could track him.

Maybe.

You find him?

I accidentally

connected to the lucubra.

You okay?

Fine.

I think I saw it escape through

the seal.

But no Winston?

Oh, I found him, too.

Intersection of Roeper and

hawthorne... get here fast.

Meet you there.

They've changed direction,

and they haven't found the

tracking device in Winston's

rucksack.

Right. First we k*ll the beast.

Then our truce with Ben Tennyson

comes to an end, as does his

life!

I swear, in the name of the

first knight, victory will be

ours.

I guess we'd better let

the knights know where we are.

Seriously?

Well, I did say I would.

Yeah, but you didn't

say when.

Good point.

We'll call them after it's all

over.

You two should be in

politics.

There's never a way in

when you need one.

I can fix that.

Can we not go straight

to the nuclear option?

That is so wrong.

Let's get in there.

Gwen?

Gwen?!

You okay?

Of course she's not

okay.

She's not complaining about how

disgusting goop is.

The lucubra...

In my head again.

It feeds on people's thoughts.

I got some thoughts

for it right here.

It wants energy from

the parietal lobe... the part of

the brain you use when you pray

or meditate.

So, you bliss out and

it has lunch?

Until there's nothing

left.

We have to save those

people... now.

Okay, only Gwen stays

out of it.

Says who?!

I can hold my own.

No doubt, but that

thing got its hooks into you

twice.

And I shook it off!

But what if next time

you can't?

What if it's three strikes and

you're out?

I'll be okay.

Listen, Gwen, I

can't...

I mean...

We can't afford to lose you...

the team, you know?

I, um...

Help me out here.

How 'bout you go around

back?

If we get into trouble, but only

if, then you jump in.

I still don't think

she should be in on this.

Me either.

That's why we're going to do

this fast.

Armodrillo!

Kevin, don't hurt anyone!

They started it!

Come on, people!

Back off!

We don't want to hurt you!

To be honest, I am

considering it.

Okay, I am done with

waiting.

]] So are we.

Let them weaken the creature.

Then we can att*ck in force.

I'm going to help my

friends.

]] You'll have to go through us

first.

I was hoping you'd say

that.

Gwen, get out of here!

NRG!

Hey, lucubra, you hungry?

How about a taste of this?!

Ben?!

No, I'm good.

Just like Kevin was when he was

wrapped in metal.

Tinfoil hat... keeps

them from controlling your mind.

Ben, I need a hole... a

deep one.

How's that?

Nice!

They're okay.

Steady there, squire.

]] Uh, I tried to fight it.

Well, hooray for you.

Now go buy yourself a cookie.

]] We call them "biscuits."

]] Squire Winston, step away

from the alien scum.

I think he's talking

about us.

After all we've meant

to each other.

]] Did you destroy the beast?

I sent it back where it

came from.

Got a problem with that?

]] No.

For now, our work is done and

our truce remains in force.

Except for that part

out back where you ambushed me.

]] A minor misunderstanding.

Nevertheless, take heed.

When we next meet...

Yeah, yeah, we will know

your righteous vengeance.

Can we call it a night?

I could use some sleep.

Okay, he's cute.

We get it.

]] Squire, you are not to

fraternize with the enemy.

]] But, sire...

]] Heed me well!

They may look like us, but they

are alien spawn, and they will

contaminate you.

Is that clear?

]] Yes, my liege.
