00:00Angel of happiness, have you tasted grief?
00:10The vague terrors of the fearful night that crush the heart like a crumpled leaf.
00:17Angel of happiness, have you tasted grief?
00:22I have.
00:24My baby bumped him, and he's gonna hunt him.
00:37Everything will be all right, Baudelaire.
00:41It was only a dream, and I know how much you hate dreams.
00:54Analytical, freeze. Amplified grid 4-7.
01:09Trap, fast speed.
01:14Garan, that's me.
01:15As you were, 16 years ago.
01:18Only a day.
01:20Yet your father had already begun your training, though he had not expected any trouble that day.
01:26But I don't remember any of this.
01:28I wish I had known him.
01:30Do you know if he...
01:32Why do I know that child is about to make an entrance?
01:38Hey, where'll you bitch have been Dr. Jack?
01:45Live, jacked in, and full photonics.
01:49In Dockside Sector for the grand opening of Cyberville's first building.
01:54But the burning fight now...
01:57There is Rebecca Madison.
02:01With opening ceremonies only a few hours away, the big brain behind Cyberville is a big no-show.
02:08A most unusual situation.
02:10I told you so.
02:12We know Rebecca's in Metropia.
02:13She's been directing all that activity at Maximum's Hyperport for weeks.
02:17So what could be more important to Rebecca than Cyberville?
02:20Yes, yes!
02:48The fractal patterns are self-organizing.
02:59Soon will I help you.
03:02Push the button, Frank.
03:12Live, my love.
03:14Live!
03:15Live!
03:18Max, don't...
03:34We have time for dinner before the opening ceremonies after all.
03:38A dream come true, Mother.
03:40Analytical.
03:47Analytical.
03:47Please screen 10-B and identify object.
03:56High probability prototype neural reanimator device.
04:12What does Rebecca want with one of those?
04:15It's supposed to rebuild information stored in non-functional brain cells.
04:18Is that woman trying to bring back the dead?
04:20Ha!
04:22Not if she's kept up with the research.
04:24The new brain patterns that machine produces aren't stable.
04:27Whatever else Rebecca's planning to use that machine for, the answer is hidden in the Maximum building.
04:32I know a way we can get in.
04:34Nice design, Sparks.
04:36It's not worth the risk to sneak the smart mic inside the Maximum building.
04:39But I added a hypercoil and video and a transponder.
04:48We can remote control it anywhere.
04:51Sparks, I'm impressed, but I'm afraid we still can't use it.
04:55Remind me to explain why later.
04:57I wonder if Rebecca's keeping records at Maximum medical.
05:00Okay, you remind me to explain how this works.
05:09Later.
05:19Even Garan would think this is a good idea.
05:30Citizen, Paul.
05:55Oh!
05:56Oh!
05:56I hate fault-tolerant programming.
06:09Ow!
06:12I only wish to protect.
06:16Game over!
06:20And Sparks only goes where no one's gone before.
06:26Sparks only goes where no one's gone before.
06:36Sparks only goes where no one's gone before.
06:40Sparks only goes where no one's gone before.
06:44Help me! I must find my wife, my office!
06:47Say again?
06:49My access codes won't work. Are you repairing the system?
06:53Right! That's exactly what I'm doing!
06:56Then open this door!
06:58Hey, if you say so.
07:08That is Rebecca's.
07:10But this is not her office.
07:16Eutropia. Everything looks so different.
07:22You're... you're Max Madison's father?
07:25Of course I am.
07:27You must be a new employee.
07:33Transputer on!
07:34This is not working either!
07:35Fix it at once!
07:37Yes, sir!
07:38Yes, sir!
07:46And here at last to officiate is the one, the only, for which we can all be thankful...
07:52Rebecca Madison!
07:54Rebecca, my devoted helpmate.
07:57But this makes no sense!
07:59Here she is!
08:00Chief Executive Officer of the numero uno megacore on the planet!
08:07Maximum Inc!
08:08Coming!
08:09What?!
08:10Have my wife gone mad and seized control from me overnight?
08:14Is that why I am locked out of the access codes?
08:17You will accompany me, Tech.
08:24We shall find this Dr. Jack and make him explain what is happening here!
08:35We've tried everything, Professor.
08:37Whatever Rebecca's doing with the neural reanimator device, she isn't keeping records of it.
08:41I'm surprised Sparks couldn't skate into the maximum system.
08:45Yes, where is the child?
08:47He hasn't bothered us for hours.
09:02So, Pat, what are you doing for dinner tonight?
09:05Files do not eat, Doctor.
09:07That's not what I meant, Pat.
09:09Dr. Jack, I presume?
09:13Max Madison Senior!
09:17Ho-hoo-hoo!
09:18I don't believe my eye!
09:20You must help me find my wife.
09:22Everything has changed since yesterday.
09:24Doctor, that is not an organic...
09:26Later, Pat.
09:27Since yesterday, you say?
09:28Well, time is relative.
09:30And speaking of relative, your wife is over there with your son!
09:39Max!
09:40Max!
09:41No!
09:42He's grown up!
09:43He's...
09:48Who has stolen my son's childhood from me?
09:50Hey!
09:51How long has it been?
09:52How?
09:53You've been gone 16 years, Maxie!
09:56As for who's responsible, ho-ho-ho!
09:59Does the color purple ring any neurons?
10:02A phantom!
10:03A phantom!
10:04Of course!
10:05Who else could it be?
10:07How?
10:08Ho-ho-ho!
10:09He's even got a little hot this past.
10:11This couldn't be better if I'd written it myself!
10:14Fellow citizens of Metropia.
10:16Oh!
10:17Whoa!
10:19Rebecca!
10:21Maxwell!
10:22My love!
10:25Mother!
10:27What have you done?
10:28Maxwell Madison Senior?
10:31I don't believe it.
10:32And your impulsive young friend is right in the middle of it all.
10:35That, I believe.
10:49You betrayed me!
10:50You stole Maxwell!
10:52My vision!
10:53My son!
10:54No, Maxwell!
10:55The phantom tried to take you away!
10:58I only want you back with me!
11:00Back?
11:01With you?
11:04Baudelaire!
11:05You lied to me!
11:06You are in league with the phantom!
11:11Maxwell!
11:12Don't leave me!
11:22Stop!
11:23No one wants to harm you!
11:24He's not your son!
11:25Let him go!
11:26Peace!
11:31Baudelaire!
11:32Help me!
11:39Hypercycle.
11:40Lock and bind.
11:41Engage digital camouflage.
11:42Hey!
11:43Let me go!
11:44You!
11:45Tell me you have a good explanation for all this.
11:46I'm gonna need some time to think up a good one.
11:47Then how about telling me the truth?
11:48I was afraid you were gonna say that.
11:49I was afraid you were gonna say that.
11:50And that's everything that happened.
11:51More or less.
11:52More or less.
11:53I was afraid you were gonna say that.
11:55And that's everything that happened.
11:56More or less.
11:57A biot with Maximia's brain.
11:58Not his brain.
11:59A reconstruction of memories.
12:00That's why Rebecca Madison was using the neural reanimator device.
12:01Then this biot remembers my brain.
12:02And that's why Rebecca Madison was using the neural reanimator device.
12:03Then this biot remembers what he was doing.
12:04I was afraid you were gonna say that.
12:05And that's everything that happened.
12:06More or less.
12:07A biot with Maximia's brain.
12:08Not his brain.
12:09A reconstruction of memories.
12:10That's why Rebecca Madison was using the neural reanimator device.
12:15Then this biot remembers what happened to your father that night.
12:16When I wasn't there.
12:17But how do we find this, this reanimated creature?
12:18The smart mic has a location transponder.
12:19I put it in the biot's pocket.
12:20We can trace it.
12:21Sparks.
12:22Sparks.
12:23Sparks.
12:24Sparks.
12:25Sparks.
12:26Sparks.
12:27Sparks.
12:28Sparks.
12:29Sparks.
12:30Sparks.
12:31Sparks.
12:32Sparks.
12:33Sparks.
12:34Sparks.
12:35Sparks.
12:36Sparks.
12:37Sparks.
12:38Sparks.
12:39Sparks.
12:41Sparks.
12:42Sparks.
12:43Sparks.
12:44Sparks.
12:45Sparks.
12:46Every service by the Metropia carries a location transponder.
12:48So...
12:49It's almost impossible to find the smart mic signal.
12:51That's why I didn't want to use your plan.
12:53But if you really want to know what happened to your dad...
12:56It's the best plan we've got, right?
13:08It's dark.
13:10Bodställer.
13:11Hates the dark.
13:12This was our home, son.
13:23Sixteen years ago.
13:25So much has changed.
13:29No!
13:31It's wrong.
13:32The train isn't supposed to be here.
13:35What train?
13:36It's night.
13:38Dark, come in closer.
13:43Your mother told me you were dead.
13:45I was waiting.
13:46I wanted to kill the Phantom.
13:48All my dreams about to come true.
13:51But I was only a child.
13:53And the Phantom...
13:54The Phantom, yes!
13:56Grand Central Station.
13:57That's where I was going last night.
13:59That is where I must go now.
14:06I can't stay here.
14:08Sector Zero is poisoned beyond reason.
14:10It's madness to go inside.
14:15Come with me, son.
14:16Everything will be all right.
14:18That's what Baudelaire always says to me.
14:30What is it?
14:31What do you hear?
14:33Here.
14:34Here I will finally meet the Phantom.
14:37For the last time.
14:39Someone's breached the wall in Sector Zero, Quadrant A4.
14:44I've picked up the smart mic.
14:45Sector Zero, Quadrant A4.
14:48It's Maxwell Madison.
14:50He's come back.
14:53For me.
14:56The action continues.
14:58After these messages.
15:01He's heading for the train wreck.
15:04Kit, no!
15:05You told Garand that a reconstructed brain breaks down.
15:08This biot could be insane.
15:10Exactly, Professor.
15:11And it's holding Max Madison prisoner.
15:13I have to save him.
15:14I'm going with you.
15:15I should have been with your father the night he met Madison.
15:18I will not make the same mistake twice.
15:20I'm coming too.
15:21Oh, no.
15:22You're going with Professor Archer to patch up that hole in the wall
15:24before any others find their way in.
15:26Haven't you found him yet?
15:34My analyticals have taken over every police surveillance camera in Metropia.
15:38Wait.
15:40Someone's breached the wall in Sector Zero.
15:42Of course.
15:43The train station.
15:44That's where he'd go.
15:46Activate my buyout assault army.
15:48All of it.
15:49And go there at once.
15:50If City Council learns we have a buyout army ready for action,
15:53they'll shut us down.
15:55Besides, if that buyout isn't Sector Zero,
15:57there's no point in pursuing it,
15:59no matter who it's got with it.
16:00The poison will...
16:01You're speaking of my son and his father.
16:03This company, even Cyberville,
16:06nothing is as important as they are.
16:08Nothing!
16:09All right.
16:10I'll go.
16:11But I'm not taking the buyout army,
16:13only our authorized security buyout.
16:16And you'll owe me for this.
16:17I don't care!
16:18Just bring me back, my son!
16:30Nothing should be able to grow in this sector.
16:33What happened here?
16:34That's what we'd all like to know.
16:38You!
16:39You will never get the shipment!
16:41What shipment?
16:42What?
16:47Fire!
16:48We've got to help them!
16:59No!
17:00We can't risk distracting him!
17:03You stole my life, Gene!
17:04You stole my son's childhood!
17:06Why are you still out here?
17:23The hole is gone.
17:24There's no way in.
17:25Then make one!
17:26And find my son's!
17:27You heard her!
17:29Blast it!
17:29No!
17:31No!
17:33No!
17:34One clear shot.
17:37No!
17:37No!
17:39No!
17:47No!
17:47No!
17:47No!
17:51No!
17:52Take this!
17:53Rebecca and Graf must have tracked the biot here.
17:59They're blasting the wall.
18:01Silence.
18:02Now we each have someone to lose, Phantom.
18:05Too many lives have been lost already.
18:07Give me the laser.
18:08I can help you understand.
18:10Liar!
18:11I remember it all now.
18:12I was here, waiting for the train, the shipment.
18:18No.
18:19Madison was on the train.
18:21The Phantom was waiting at the station.
18:23You weren't there.
18:24Only the purple ghost rode the train.
18:27The ghost who walks and kills.
18:31If you remember everything, then tell me what happened.
18:35Tell me why you left me.
18:36The Phantom never kills.
18:38Ra!
18:40I was waiting for the train.
18:42The shipment had to arrive safely.
18:44The future of the world depended on it.
18:47I saw the Phantom leave the train.
18:48The Phantom sabotaged it.
18:50The Phantom made it crash.
18:53The Phantom's
18:54The Phantom's
19:23of the dying. I saw their blood on your hands. I reached for you. You were my only hope.
19:30And then, and then, died. I remember everything now. I am a machine. I have no dreams. I
19:51have no son. No! You came back! Don't! Father! Let me go! You don't understand! You can't
20:16understand! I'm the only one who can. What is it? We found your son, ma'am, on the corner
20:34of 21st and Chandler. He's unconscious, but unheard. Max! Darling! Mother's on her way!
20:42Draft! We're almost through the wall. You're too late. The enforcers have missed. Pull
20:49the charges. I'm getting out of this death trap now. In speaking of fathers and sons, not
21:02every story has a happy ending. Max, darling. Where did he take me? What did he take? I can't
21:12remember anything. It was like a dream. And not every question has an easy answer. The answer
21:21is to never stop asking. I'm baby Bunting. Daddy's mom hunting. Please stay tuned for more of Bantam 2040.
21:41.
