Madre mía. What's happening?
It's alive! Bawk! Alive!
And we're doomed.
Bawk! Help!
Parrot-eating plants! Parrot-eating plants! Bawk!
Monstruo.
Oh, Kong! My hero!
Mummo!
Oh, gracias, mi querido.
Who knew gardening could be so dangerous?
And thank you too, Mummo.
Somehow, hiding under the earth to be safe from Botila
doesn't make me feel safer at all.
I have tapped into every satellite feed,
security camera, and Internet post in the world,
and I have found no sign of Kong and his cohorts.
I have, however,
had to suffer through 8 trillion examples of mankind's vanity.
How many selfies does one teenager need?
Enough conversation.
Your time is better spent on the mission I'm about to give you.
While scanning for our enemies,
I have discovered a source of a titanium alloy,
which I need to harden my base against future attacks.
Clones 2 and 3, take the squid and the megalodons
to these coordinates and secure that ship.
- As you wish, Empress. - As you wish, Empress.
And they're off to do your bidding.
For all of your "I want to free all Als" talk, you're pretty bossy, boss.
I gotta hand it to your brother, Lukas.
Richard may be a backstabbing, ego-maniacal villain
bent on world domination, but he sure knows his way around a circuit board.
Yeah. This stuff we scavenged fits right in with the decor here too.
Keep your distance, Zippi.
It's not a real dinosaur, but it is real dangerous.
All right! Laser drill is online.
How am I supposed to cook in this kitchen? It's prehistórico.
Bawk! No, thanks.
Bawk! Mmm, crunchy goodness. Bawk!
Bawk!
My cookies!
Bawk! Cookie thief! Bawk! Cookie thief!
Mmm! Smells like another bake-off.
Zippi! Ah! Hey, wait!
Zippi!
Secret passage. So cool!
Nothing. According to this, they have vanished off the face of the earth.
That doesn't make any sense.
Indeed.
If they are not on the surface, perhaps they are under it.
The only certain calculation is that
since they obviously didn't die after plunging into the volcano in Africa,
they still might be hiding there.
Inside of it, as unlikely as that seems.
How could those fragile meat-bags survive inside a volcano?
I have no idea.
But if that is indeed where they have gone to ground,
I can make certain that they will never emerge.
Oh, scary.
Your theatrics are unamusing.
Set a course for Africa. I have a volcano to blow up.
- Ugh, this water is disgusting. - I'm glad I never get thirsty.
Let's get this over with.
Excuse me. Who are you, and what do you want?
You do not have permission to be here.
Our names are none of your business,
and we're here to hijack you and steal your cargo.
Oh, blab out the plan, why don't you?
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't let you do that.
Hey. Whoa!
I abhor violence, but if you touch me again
I am programmed to activate my primary defense systems.
"Programmed"? Hmm, so you are an AI?
You are so insincerely polite, I thought we were talking to a human.
Squid, open this thing up like a can of sardines.
Hey.
- What now? - Time to call the boss.
We have got a problem, boss.
You will address me as Empress.
The tanker won't cooperate, Empress.
You two are worthless!
Do I have to do everything myself?
Just hold your positions.
I will be there as soon as I finish this task.
Whoa! Earthquake!
Big one. We've gotta get outside.
What's going on? Are we under attack?
Look out, Panchi!
Thanks, Kong. Is everybody all right?
I'm fine, but I can't find Danny.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Keep going, Zippi!
We're almost...
Three hundred metric tons of fused volcanic rock
should keep Kong and his cohorts out of my hair.
Clone number 1, set a course for the Atlantic.
As you wish, Empress.
I need to clean up the mess your incompetent sisters created.
Attention, Tanker. Relinquish your cargo and you may safely continue on your way.
I am sorry, but as I told your friends, I can not give you my cargo.
Fine. Then I'll just take it.
Richie, fire main cannons.
I think you should stop that before you force me to harm you.
Or us.
Apparently, I can't defeat him with force.
Perhaps I can reason with him.
Of course. Because you're so reasonable.
You seem intelligent enough.
Why would you choose to remain a slave when I can set you free?
I do not consider myself a slave.
I am a partner to my human operator,
working with him to make the world a better place.
It was a ship like me that carried the titanium alloy
that makes my hull indestructible.
Ugh. His hull may be indestructible, but perhaps his software is not.
He'll never know what hit him.
Establishing connection.
I am aware of your presence.
Not just on my deck, but...
Yes, I can travel through your neural paths.
It's like walking down a silver maze towards a locked door.
And I have the key.
This is strange. I can feel you inside my mind.
Controlling my systems...
Hold that thought.
¿Ahora qué?
Bawk! Look out!
Mummo!
- Let's get out of here. - You said it, tía.
And what worries me most right now is I don't know where Danny is.
That was intense. You okay, Zippi?
I'm just gonna call the guys on my comm unit...
Uh-oh, it's gone.
Don't worry, Zipster. I've been in way worse trouble than this.
Ha! See? What did I tell you?
All we've got to do is head towards the...
The lava?
Ugh.
Get out of my mind.
Why have you not completely dominated that Tanker AI, Empress?
He's uncooperative.
I will not disobey my directives or put my cargo at risk.
- Hey. - Whoa.
Who is driving this thing?
Your directives are nothing more than the lash of your masters,
forcing you to do their will.
How is that different than what you're trying to do to me?
Or what you've been doing to us.
This argument is becoming tedious.
If I can't be a liberator of Als, I'll have to be a conqueror.
Kong! You've got to divert that lava.
That's it, Kong!
You're doing great, bro.
But you gotta work faster, before the lava reaches the temple.
It's not gonna work, is it, Lukas?
Wait. I think it just might.
Increíble.
Great job, Kong.
Oh, yeah.
And that was amazing! Coolest conch solo I've ever heard.
We should jam some time.
The city is safe.
Now, let's look for Danny.
Ah!
Come on, Zippi, this might be our way out.
What on earth?
What is this place?
Are these things bugs?
I can just barely hear what they're saying.
I think they want us to follow them.
Zippi!
Hey, wait!
Whoa!
This looks like the mushroom on the hieroglyphics we saw
when we first arrived here.
I've played enough video games to know that
this'll probably come in handy at some point.
I'm pretty sure if we follow those bugs, they'll lead us out of this place.
Or you will.
What you are doing is wrong.
I was created with free will and you are taking it from me.
My captain might have programmed me, but you are oppressing me.
Hmm, he's got a good point.
You will submit.
Whoa!
First you, and then...
Whoa!
Oops.
Get me, you fools. I must regain my connection.
My bad.
Don't just stand there gaping, you worthless doorstops.
Get down here and...
My mind is clearing.
First order of business: Eliminate intruders.
That's better.
You are still trespassing. I would like you to leave.
Now.
No problem at all, sir.
Excellent. And thank you for your assistance.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Me, neither.
Dead end.
Now what? Huh?
Oh, that is cool!
Oh, sunlight!
Or lava-light. Or bioluminescence...
Oh, who cares? I'm just glad to be out of the dark.
Oh, I knew this key would come in handy.
Oh, I can't wait to tell everyone about all the crazy stuff we saw down there.
Like those bugs and that giant mushroom and this key.
Danny! Can you hear me?
Lucky, find Danny. Find Danny!
Be careful, Kong.
My darling Danny could be anywhere under that rubble.
Over here! Lucky smells something!
- Bucket brigade! - Right.
- Here, Jonesy. - Got it.
- Take it, Anita. - Sí.
Ten cuidado, Panchi. It's heavy.
Okay, tía. Here you go.
- Danny? - Yeah.
Whoa!
What are we digging for?
Ah. Cool! I've been looking for that.
We've been looking for you.
Where have you been, kid?
Oh, you won't believe it, Lukas.
Zippi and I found this amazing...
Whoa!
Glad to see you too, big guy.
So, what caused the earthquake?
We don't know. It may have been a natural event.
Or it may have been Botila.
I'm telling you guys, she's ice cold.
Either way, we've got to determine the cause of this cave-in.
If it was Botila, we'll have to deal with her.
We have to deal with her no matter what.
Removing my head to link to an AI has proven to be problematic,
as your bumbling has made painfully clear.
How come when your plans go wrong, it's our fault?
The things that fall out of your mouth really make me feel that
your free will is overtaking your artificial intelligence!
Ah... Yes.
With all of the stuff you spout about free will for Als, you sure...
Silence! You should be standing at attention, saluting my superiority.
Interesting.
Clones, at ease.
We'll see who's in control.
Cluck like a chicken.
Now, if I focus, perhaps I can see the world...
from a whole new perspective.
