01x16 - Besieged in Paradise

[bunniefuu]

[theme music]

[music continues]

Yee-haw.

That squall is growing
dangerously close.

[thunder rumbling]

I believe we should head back.

Jonny, storm coming.
Must return to Questor.

Okay, Hadj.

Huh!

[Jonny]
'It looks like
that whale's in trouble.'

I gotta do something.

[intense music]

What's he doing?

Yee-haw!

[thunder rumbling]

[panting]

[whale screams]

Easy now, big fella.

[whale screams]

Uhh!

[thunder rumbling]

[rain pattering]

I can see no sign of him.

Hadji, over there.

[Jessie]
'The parasail.'

[intense music]

I'm going in after him.

[Hadji]
Alright, but not
without the lifeline.

splash

Oh, my! The whale saved Jonny.

Uh! Aah!

I-I got him.

[motor whirring]

Uh.

Come on, Jonny.

Don't give up on me, Jonny.

[coughing]

I thought we had lost you.

We owe a debt of gratitude
to our cetacean friend.

[singing]

[mellow music]

[Julia]
'Lorenzo, we've been working
on this experiment for 14 days.'

And all I've collected
is data on 50 different ways

to feel sea sick.

There is no whale internet.

The whole idea is crazy.

Cetaceans having
a sonic internet?

Whale song is merely
a whale song.

- Nothing more.
- You know the boss.

'Once he's got a theory stuck
in his head, it'd take a nuke'

'to blast it
out of there.'

[whale singing]

[whale singing]

I'm ready, Julia.

'External sonar output to four.'

[waves transmitting]

[laughing]

It's working.

[groaning]

Huh?

Aah!

[gasping]

[clicking]

Aah!

There is a whale.

Wow, look at that.
Did you see that?

[male #1]
'Wow.'

'Look at that.'

[intense music]

[people screaming]

[squealing]

Aah!

[squealing]

What's happening?

[singing]

[laughing]

Oh.

You had me worried for a moment.

[Jeremiah Surd]
'Once again I amaze myself'

'with my technological
abilities.'

[laughs]

[computerised vocalization]
'Jeremiah Surd.'

'Logging out of Quest World.'

[Julia]
'I can't believe it, Jeremiah.'

You've proven the existence
of a cetacean internet.

The whale net, Julia.

A low frequency global
communication system

entirely independent
of electronics.

Who would have
thought it possible?

But more than that I believe
I can control this whale net.

I can make every cetacean

in every ocean do exactly
what I want it to.

[Lorenzo]
'And the oceans are two-thirds
of the planet surface.'

Not a bad chunk of change.

Still, in all, boss,
they're only whales.

You know what I mean.
I mean, where is the mayhem?

Where is the action?
What does it mean to us?

I have an idea.

Call it, proof of concept.

I've been monitoring
the Quest's data transmissions.

They're on vacations.

Sailing off Hawaii.

So?

Oh, Lorenzo, you are
the least subtle man I know.

If you can control the whales
and dolphins, Jeremiah.

You must try to set them
against the Quests.

What a wonderful idea.

A magnificient experiment.

We turn the technology
against them.

[instrumental music]

[engine revving]

[Hadji]
Over there, Dr. Quest.

A pod of dolphins.

[Dr. Quest]
'Not the whales
we were looking for

but a cetacean
by any other name.

Wouldn't you say, Hadji?
Let's put our ears in the water.

[pleasant music]

Cool! Check it out,
an underwater cave.

Too bad, we do not have
enough air to go exploring.

But we'll come back
here tomorrow.

[whale singing]

Hey...I think that's
the whale, I see.

- You mean that thing, eww.
- Whatever?

[whale singing]

She remembers me.

Come on, Jess.
A ? tuck and ? ride.

[Jonny]
'Hee-Haw!'

[Jess laughing]

[intense music]

[waves transmitting]

[waves transmitting]

That is very strange. I think
you should hear this, Dr. Quest.

[waves whooshing]

Look out!

I've never seen dolphins
behave this way.

[dolphins clicking]

Head for the shore.
It's nearer than the Questor.

[intense music]

[whale singing]

I hate to say this, but
we are pushing our air supply.

We better head out.

[Jessica]
Hey! What's he doing?

Look out, Jonny!

[whale singing]

Spread out. Now!

Jess! I can't see you. Jess!

Jessie! Where are you?

Jessie, I'm out of air.
I gotta surface.

[intense music]

[Jonny on radio]
'Jessie, do you read me?
Jessie, please, come in, Jess.'

Come on, Jess, answer me.
Jessie.

[motorboat whizzing]

Quick, dad, I need
a new air tank.

Jessie's down there somewhere.

[intense music]

[grunting]

I never thought
I'd be glad to see garbage.

Ugh!

That oughta do it.

I hope.

[intense music]

[snarling]

Come on, dad, let's go.

Contact Race. Have him get here
as soon as possible.

- You see anything yet, pa.
- There is no sign of Jessie.

But be careful, son, that bottom
whale is still following you.

What the heck?

Hey, this is part
of Jessie's wetsuit.

[Dr. Quest on radio]
'Jonny, the whales
are right behind you.'

'Quickly, Jonny,
grab the pontoon.'

That piece of Jessie's wetsuit
didn't get in this jug

by accident.

She's down there somewhere.
We got to check it out.

[Race on radio]
'Catalina to Questor.
Do you read me?'

We read you, Race.

'I'm five hours
from your position.'

'Any sign of Jessie?'

She's alive, Race.
We'll find her.

'I'll be there
as soon as I can.'

[Dr. Quest]
'No, leave Jessie to us.'

'The best that you can do for
her is to find Captain Havel.'

Captain Havel?

The psycho
that tried to k*ll me.

Hear me out, Havel only tried
to k*ll you

because he's obsessed
with whales.

Hadji has tracked a synthetic
whale song which accompanies

each of the whale attacks.

The signal emanates
from a large container ship

off the coast of Madagascar.

[Race]
Jeremiah Surd.

Ah, I get it, pop.
Havel will take care of Surd.

Once he finds out the good
doctor's messing

with the whales.

How the heck am I supposed
to find Havel and his sub?

Race, you're the best connected
man in the maritime service.

Get on the horn.
Just find him.

Got it.

[Race]
'You save Jessie,
I'll save the whales.'

[Surd]
'This is the best thing
that's happening to me'

'since my discovery
of Quest World.'

It's the most extraordinary
feeling of liberation.

Put me back in.

Hadji, I have the whales
following me.

'The diversion is working.'

- So far so good.
- Let's rock.

[dramatic music]

[whale singing]

If I can keep ahead
of them, Hadji

I should give you and Jonny
enough time to find Jessie.

I can't stay
in here forever.

[intense music]

Man, am I glad to see you.

Ditto, Jess.

[whale singing]

Uhhh.

Ooh!

[Dr. Quest]
Hadji, starboard hull
is smashed.

I am returning
to the cove.

[Surd]
I see you, Dr. Quest.

There's nothing you or your
tribe can do without my knowing.

'There's no avenue of escape
for you now.'

Prepare to surface.

Here's the sonar signature
for Surd's ship

I got from Washington. You do
this for me and I owe you one.

And I'm a man
who always pays his debts.

Uh, we got company.

[whale singing]

Oh, man.
That was too close.

crash

Captain, we have a match
on the sonar signature.

Good. Lay in
an intercept course at once.

[intense music]

He is right behind us.

Hang on. I'll go
with the ballast.

Swim for the ledge!

[crashing]

Black Tubes One and Two.
Starboard rudder. 20 degrees.

[intense music]

Aaah!

Fire one.

[whale singing]

[all screaming]

Julia, get me
off this deathtrap.

[Hadji]
'Karma is a strange master,
Jonny.'

Captain Havel once tried to k*ll
us. Now he has saved our lives.

All I know is having
Captain Havel out there

gives the whales
a fighting chance.

And that means the world
to a friend of mine.

[whale singing]

[everyone cheering]

Ha ha ha. I only wish he knew
a better way to say goodbye.
