SADIE: I'm nineteen. | |||

SURINTENDANT :: [plays recording of traffic accident.] | |||
SADIE: That's exactly what Dad would say! | |||
PASSAGER: You know...train's got a point. A lot of soldiers are dying | |||
these days. | |||

SADIE: (into Chatter) Vergil? Can you hear me? I'm on my Chatter. But | |||
I'm off the train in Old Mombasa and-- | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Chatter) NO PARKING. VIOLATORS WILL BE TICKETED AND | |||
TOWED. | |||
SADIE: I know! I can see it! A giant Covenant ship, just hanging above the | |||
city center! | |||
SADIE: There's a kiosk on the platform! Makupa station. Meet me there, | |||
okay? | |||
SURINTENDANT :: [Vergil chime.] | |||

SADIE: Train station. Old Mombasa. Dad, there's a ship-- | |||
DR ENDESHA: Listen sweetheart. I wanted to tell you at breakfast, but you | |||
left so early... | |||
DR ENDESHA: You know my latest project? The seismic survey for the new | |||
construction downtown? | |||
SADIE: Dad! There's a Covenant ship-- | |||
DR ENDESHA: Well, Vergil found something under the city. I've never seen | |||
anything like it-- | |||
SADIE: Dad! Covenant are attacking the city! Do you hear what I'm saying! | |||
You've got to get out of there! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Don't worry, I'm nine levels underground. And I built Vergil's | |||
data-center to be very, very secure. | |||
SADIE: Fine. Then I'll come to you. | |||
DR ENDESHA: No! Absolutely not! Stay exactly where you are! I'll have | |||
Vergil-- | |||
SADIE: Sorry Dad! (fakes static) There's, uh, something wrong... | |||
DR ENDESHA: This is a video connection, Sadie. I can see you making those | |||
sounds. | |||
SADIE: Right... Well, tough! | |||
SAID: Vergil, get that train going in reverse! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie Endesha. I will not allow you to put yourself in danger-- | |||

pushing! | |||
KINSLER: (from police car) Sadie? Miss Endesha, is that you? | |||
SADIE: Commissioner Kinsler!? [to crowd] Ow! Get off of me! | |||
KINSLER: Officer Branley! Control this crowd before they trample her into | |||
the sidewalk! | |||
MIKE: (exiting car) Yes, sir! | |||
MIKE: NMPD! Everyone back off! | |||
CROWD: Lousy cops. | |||
CROWD: Hey! Give us your car! | |||
MIKE: I said, back off! (Fires pistol into the air) | |||
MIKE: (to Sadie) Are you hurt? | |||
SADIE: No, I'll be alright... | |||
CROWD: Hey, why don't you help us? | |||
CROWD: Yeah, give us your car, cops! | |||
KINSLER: Branley! Get her inside! | |||
MIKE: Take my hand. We gotta go. | |||
[SOUND: Sadie and Mike enter the car and slam the doors.] | |||
KINSLER: What the devil are you doing out in the old city? | |||
SADIE: There was...something wrong with the train. | |||
KINSLER: You don't say... | |||
KINSLER: (laughs) I know all about Vergil and his overprotective urges, | |||
Sadie. | |||
[SOUND: Angry crowd pounds on the car] | |||
KINSLER: Branley! Drive! | |||
MIKE: Yes sir! [Honks car horn.] What's our destination? | |||
KINSLER: That's a very good question... | |||
SADIE: My dad. He's at work. | |||
KINSLER: The data-center below the ONI building? | |||
KINSLER: No, I don't think so. There are too many Covenant in that | |||
district. | |||
KINSLER: I'd like to take you someplace much more... private. | |||
[SOUND: Police car accelerates away from the station.] | |||
'''Circle 2, Arc 2''' | |||
[SOUND: Police car accelerates away from the station.] | |||
KINSLER: Branley? The partition, if you please. | |||
MIKE: Yes, sir... [Raise the privacy partition] | |||
SADIE: Where are we going? | |||
KINSLER: The police department has an emergency bunker outside the city | |||
limits. We'll be very safe. | |||
SADIE: That's very kind of you, Commissioner. But I can't, I'm sorry. If | |||
you would please take me to the city center-- | |||
KINSLER: Such a serious young women. Just like your mother... 'New | |||
Mombasa's most passionate public defender.' | |||
KINSLER: Too bad her last client really was a sick, murdering bastard. | |||
KINSLER: (sliding across the seat closer to Sadie) She had your eyes... | |||
SADIE: (into her Chatter) Vergil, stop the car! | |||
KINSLER: As police commissioner it’s my job to uphold the law. And I'm | |||
afraid this city has very strict, personal privacy statues. | |||
KINSLER: My car is off the grid, Sadie. As far as Vergil is concerned, | |||
you just disappeared... | |||
[SOUND: Sadie slaps Kinsler's face] | |||
KINSLER: (laughs) Assaulting a police officer. That's a serious offence. | |||
SADIE: Don't come any closer! | |||
KINSLER: (laughs) Just like your mother... | |||
SADIE: (struggling) Let go of me! | |||
KINSLER: It's the end of the world... | |||
SADIE: Vergil! Please! Somebody! | |||
KINSLER: Nobody cares what happens to one...lost...soul! | |||
[SOUND: Tires squeal as the car comes to an abrupt stop] | |||
KINSLER: Officer! Why are we stopping! Keep going! | |||
[SOUND: Mike exits the car and opens Kinsler's door] | |||
MIKE: Get out. | |||
KINSLER: What?! | |||
MIKE: You heard me... [Grabs Kinsler] | |||
KINSLER: Let go of my coat! What do you think you're doing? | |||
MIKE: My job. | |||
[SOUND: Mike punches Kinsler, knocking him to the ground] | |||
SADIE: I hope that hurt, you son of a bitch! | |||
KINSLER: (panting) Not as much as you're going to hurt when I-- | |||
[SOUND: Mike punches Kinsler again.] | |||
MIKE: Commissioner, I'm taking the car. | |||
MIKE: You want to get out of the city? You can walk like everyone else. | |||
[Enters car, slams door] | |||
KINSLER: (spitting blood) You'll pay for this, Branley! | |||
MIKE: It's the end of the world... Nobody cares what happens to you. | |||
[SOUND: Tires squeal as the car pulls away from Kinsler.] | |||
'''Circle 2, Arc 3''' | |||
[SOUND: Mike lowers the privacy partition.] | |||
MIKE: You okay back there? | |||
SADIE: Thanks for...pulling him off me. | |||
MIKE: Kinsler had it coming. I've been his driver for two weeks? Seen | |||
enough to last a lifetime... | |||
MIKE: Name's Mike. Mike Branley. | |||
SADIE: Sadie Endesha. | |||
SADIE: You know for a cop, you make a pretty good guardian angel. | |||
MIKE: Ex-cop. | |||
SADIE: Yeah... Sorry about that. | |||
MIKE: Ah, I was looking for a career change anyway. | |||
SADIE: How about solider? | |||
[SOUND: Distant explosions in the city.] | |||
MIKE: Does seem like a growth sector... | |||
SADIE: Mike. I need to get back over the bridge, to the ONI building | |||
downtown. | |||
MIKE: Well that's a problem, because I need to keep away from Covenant | |||
plasma fire. | |||
SADIE: OK...just drop me off here. | |||
MIKE: Don't be stupid! What are you going to do? | |||
MIKE: Fight your way through a few million refugees just so the Covenant can | |||
kill you a little faster? | |||
SADIE: (whisper) And this is why you always bring cab fare on a first | |||
date... | |||
MIKE: I'm trying to save your life! | |||
SADIE: You're trying to save your own ass! | |||
MIKE: And yours! | |||
SADIE: I think I'm the only person in this car who needs to be thinking | |||
about my ass! | |||
MIKE: Fine. | |||
SADIE: Fine! | |||
[SOUND: Tires squeal as the car comes to an abrupt stop.] | |||
SADIE: (opening her door) Thanks for saving me for, like three minutes! | |||
MIKE: You're welcome! | |||
[SOUND: Sadie slams her door, Mike drives away.] | |||
SADIE: Well...I sure showed him. | |||
'''Circle 3, Arc 1''' | |||
[SOUND: Tires squeal as Mike's car pulls away from Sadie.] | |||
SADIE: Great. I'm stranded on the wrong side of the bridge in the middle | |||
of an alien invasion... | |||
SADIE: And I just pissed-off the only person willing to help me out. | |||
SADIE: Go me. | |||
[SOUND: A goat near Sadie bleats.] | |||
SADIE: My feeling exactly... | |||
CROWD: Move those animals! | |||
CROWD: Step aside! Let us pass! | |||
CROWD: Clear those out of the street, we need to move! | |||
SADIE: (into her Chatter) Dad? | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from the Chatter) Sadie? Thank God! Vergil couldn't find you | |||
anywhere! | |||
SADIE: Yeah, you can thank Kinsler for that. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Police Commissioner Kinsler? What do you mean? | |||
SADIE: I don't want to talk about it... | |||
JONAS: Get your kebabs here! | |||
SADIE: Oh my God! | |||
DR ENDESHA: What? What is it, Sadie? | |||
SADIE: The biggest man I've ever seen! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Where are you? | |||
SADIE: The Old Town Market. A butcher is giving away his food. | |||
SADIE: Too bad it won't keep the Covenant from glassing the city... | |||
DR ENDESHA: They won't glass the city! | |||
SADIE: (walking to the butcher) Hang on, dad... | |||
DR ENDESHA: I'm in contact with an ONI officer. She thinks these Covenant | |||
are just a reconnaissance force. | |||
DR ENDESHA: And I think they are looking for the same thing Vergil found | |||
in his seismic survey! | |||
SADIE: Dad, I'll call you back. | |||
[SOUND: Honking car horn] | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: Move, you oaf! Get that table out of the road! | |||
JONAS: Calm yourself, friend. Stop honking (laughs) and have a kebab. | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: For the last time, move your fat ass-- | |||
[SOUND: The car creaks as Jonas leans on the hood] | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: Hey! Get off my car! | |||
JONAS: My friend, I am an eight hundred pound man with a large cleaver who | |||
kills animals every day and chops them into pieces. | |||
JONAS: (laughs) Do you really want us to be enemies? Or would you rather | |||
have a nice kebab? | |||
'''Circle 3, Arc 2''' | |||
[SOUND: Bleating goats and a honking car horn.] | |||
CROWD: Mommy, that's too loud! | |||
CROWD: Somebody make him stop! | |||
CROWD: Move that car! | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: (honks) For the last time, you blimp! Get out of the road! | |||
[SOUND: Jonas hefts his cleaver and smashes it into the car.] | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: You put your cleaver through the hood of my car! | |||
JONAS: Oh, a thousand pardons. But it was either that or smash your | |||
windshield, pull you out... | |||
JONAS: And make you into kebabs. | |||
ANGRY DRIVER: What? No! No-no! Hey wait! | |||
JONAS: Then please, stop honking your horn. It frightens the children. | |||
[SOUND: The car backs-up quickly.] | |||
SADIE: (into her Chatter) Sorry, Dad. There was sort of a...thing here. | |||
What where you saying? | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from the Chatter) Sadie, New Mombasa is the only place on | |||
Earth the Covenant are attacking. | |||
SADIE: What? Why? | |||
DR ENDESHA: Vergil's survey! He detected some very unusual seismic activity | |||
all along the Great Rift. | |||
JONAS: (to Sadie) Would you like a kebab, young lady? Chicken, mutton, beef! | |||
One free for every refugee! | |||
SADIE: I'm not a refugee! I'm going...there! | |||
JONAS: Across the bridge! To where the aliens are landing? | |||
JONAS: Take two kababs... | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie, stay out of the city center! I don't want you coming | |||
anywhere near the security zone! | |||
SADIE: Sorry, Dad. Gotta go. I'll call you back. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie-- (Chatters disconnects) | |||
JONAS: Come my friends, don't be shy! Free food for the journey! | |||
CROWD: Thank you! Asante. Asante sama. | |||
[SOUND: Distant explosions in the city.] | |||
JONAS: Now young lady... If you are heading into in the war zone, you must | |||
eat! Curried lamb? Roast chicken? | |||
SADIE: They look delicious. Really. But I'm not hungry. | |||
[SOUND: Another explosion near the market.] | |||
JONAS: (biting into a kebab) My dear... | |||
JONAS: The end of the world is nothing to face...(swallows) on an empty | |||
stomach. | |||
[SOUND: Jonas chews, burps loudly and continues to eat his kebab.] | |||
'''Circle 3, Arc 3''' | |||
[SOUND: Jonas ignores nearby explosions and continuous to loudly chew his | |||
kebab.] | |||
SADIE: Listen, what you're doing? Feeding all these hungry people? It's | |||
really a noble thing... | |||
SADIE: But you can't stay here! The fighting is going to spread -- across | |||
the water, into the old city! | |||
JONAS: (chews and swallows) Would you be a dear and run to the wine merchant? | |||
JONAS: (burps) This lamb would be perfect with a twenty-three Ida Sirah... | |||
SADIE: I understand you're...too heavy to walk very far. But there are | |||
other options! | |||
JONAS: (laughs) You could carry me, perhaps? | |||
SADIE: (into the Chatter) Vergil, you listening? | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Chatter) [Vergil chimes] | |||
SADIE: I need you to divert a city vehicle to my current location. A | |||
forklift, or maybe an Olifant-- | |||
JONAS: A garbage truck? I thnk I am insulted. | |||
SADIE: If you stay here, you'll die! | |||
SADIE: You need to get to the train station. Or the waterfront -- it's | |||
much closer! | |||
JONAS: Look at me... | |||
JONAS: Nobody is going to give me a place on a boat, a bus, or a train. I | |||
would take up five seats. | |||
JONAS: I am not worth five people... | |||
SADIE: You can't just give up -- throw away your life! | |||
JONAS: And what about your life? You seem determined to go to the one place | |||
you are most likely to die. | |||
SADIE: I'm going to find my father. He needs me. Just like all your | |||
customers need you! | |||
JONAS: Very well, young lady. I am convinced. I to will leave Mombasa... | |||
SADIE: Good! | |||
JONAS: ...As soon as you do. | |||
SADIE: No! | |||
JONAS: First you make your father safe. Then you come back and rescue me! | |||
JONAS: My brave warrior princess, riding her fearless fork-lift! (laughs) | |||
SADIE: Deal. Just... don't give up. | |||
JONAS: Well if I run out of hope? (laughs) I will still have kebabs! | |||
[SOUNDS: Covenant plasma fire slams into the market.] | |||
CROWD: The Covenant's getting closer! | |||
CROWD: My shop! Everything is gone! | |||
SADIE: (pushing through crowd) Excuse me. Ow! Sorry! | |||
SADIE: (to Jonas) I'll be back soon! | |||
JONAS: Of course you will. | |||
CROWD: Wrong way, crazy girl! | |||
SADIE: Please, just let me through! | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Chatter) CAUTION ONE WAY STREET! | |||
SADIE: Stop it, Vergil. | |||
SURINTENDANT :: WARNING! NO U-TURN ALLOWED! | |||
SADIE: I'll find Dad. Then I'll come back. | |||
SURINTENDANT :: [whines like a puppy.] | |||
SADIE: I'm not crying... | |||
SADIE: I'm not. | |||
'''Circle 4, Arc 1''' | |||
[SOUND: Civilians scream as fighting rages in the city.] | |||
CROWD: Oh God, Oh god! | |||
CROWD: Out of the car! We'll go on foot! | |||
CROWD: No! My bags! I have my whole life in there! | |||
CROWD: I don't give a damn! Leave it! | |||
LOOTER: Smash the machines! Take the money! | |||
LOOTER: Get back! This one's mine! | |||
LOOTER: Screw you! There's plenty for everyone! | |||
ATM: (from speaker) Welcome to your African Trust automated teller machine! | |||
Banking with pride! | |||
SADIE: Finally, an ATM that still works... Vergil, get Dad! | |||
ATM: Please place your right hand-- (distortion) | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from ATM) Sadie! Where are you? | |||
SADIE: Outside one of the casinos, down by the river! I can barely hear | |||
you, dad! There are looters inside smashing everything! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Covenant troops are spread all over the city center! | |||
DR ENDESHA: I can see them on the monitors in my lab! You've got to get as | |||
far away as you can-- | |||
SADIE: Forget it! I'm coming to get you! End of discussion! | |||
[SOUND: Smashing glass and a scream from inside the casino.] | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from ATM) INVEST WISELY! OPEN A PERSONAL SAVINGS ACCOUNT | |||
TODAY! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Listen to Vergil, Sadie! | |||
SADIE: This looting is just the beginning, dad! | |||
SADIE: Pretty soon we won't need the Covenant to tear us apart -- we'll | |||
do that all by ourselves! | |||
SADIE: Vergil, you've watched me all my life, kept me safe. Now, you've got | |||
to save the city! | |||
[SOUND: Vergil plays a recording of a police siren over the PA.] | |||
LOOTER: It's the cops. Run for it! | |||
LOOTER: Crap. Grab what you can and go! | |||
LOOTER: No way I'm getting busted! | |||
SADIE: That-a-boy! Scare them all the way to the river! I know they can | |||
afford the ferry! | |||
SADIE: Dad, can Vergil track the Covenant as they move? Stream positional | |||
data to the UNSC? | |||
DR ENDESHA: Yes, I might be able to re-configure the traffic congestion | |||
cameras to isolate known Covenant vehicle profiles. | |||
SADIE: Maybe the ARGUS sniffers can pick up their soldiers too? | |||
SADIE: I've only seen vids of the different Covenant species, but I bet they | |||
all stink in their own, special way. | |||
DR ENDESHA: That's an excellent idea! Vergil, get right on it! | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from ATM) [Vergil chimes] | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie, I know I've been busy, and we don't always have time to | |||
talk. | |||
DR ENDESHA: But sweetheart...you make me very, very proud. | |||
SADIE: Well...I just figure if we know where the bastards are, we can at | |||
least run away better. | |||
[SOUND: Shotgun pump.] | |||
CRONE: That was a nice trick with the police sirens, girly. But I ain't | |||
so stupid. | |||
CRONE: Step away from that cash machine, or I'm going to blow your pretty | |||
head off! | |||
'''Circle 4, Arc 2''' | |||
[SOUND: Distant explosions mix with the jingle of nearby slot-machines.] | |||
CROWD: She's got a shotgun! Look out! | |||
CROWD: Come on! She's old, we can take her! | |||
CRONE: (shoots into the air) You think I'm deaf?! Last warning! Back away | |||
from my cash machine! | |||
CRONE: (to Sadie) You too, girly! | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from ATM) Sadie, get out of there! | |||
SADIE: Look, I'm stepping back OK? Why don't you put down your gun-- | |||
CRONE: (shoots into the air) Time to break the piggy bank! | |||
SADIE: Hey! You almost hit me! | |||
[SOUND: The Crone smashes the ATM with her fist.] | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from ATM) AFRICAN TRUST-- | |||
CRONE: Open up! | |||
SURINTENDANT :: BANKING WITH PRIDE! | |||
CRONE: Open up! | |||
[SOUND: As the Crone continues smashing, a drop ship flies toward the | |||
casino.] | |||
SADIE: Everyone! Listen! That's a Covenant drop-ship! | |||
LOOTERS: Commies! Let's get out of here! | |||
LOOTERS: Leave the money! Run! Run! | |||
CRONE: Forty years I've been coming to this place. Forty years of losing | |||
my hard earned cash... | |||
CRONE: Well, today I hit the jackpot! You hear me, you damn machine? I... | |||
want...my...money! | |||
[SOUND: The Crone shoots the ATM.] | |||
SURINTENDANT :: [Vergil chime] INCORRECT PASSWORD. PLEASE REMOVE YOUR CARD. | |||
SADIE: Vergil, give her the money! Then we've got to find some cover! | |||
[SOUND: Money whirls out of the ATM.] | |||
CRONE: (laughs) Out of the way, you little slut! | |||
SADIE: (running) Gotta find a place to hide...There! Dumpster. Across the | |||
street. | |||
[SOUND: Brutes exit the drop-ship and walk to the ATM] | |||
SADIE: (whispers) Brutes! Look how big they are! | |||
CRONE: Jackpot! I win! I win! | |||
SADIE: (whispers) Move! They're right on top of you! | |||
BRUTES: [Angry roar.] | |||
SADIE: Oh my God! It just tore the ATM off the casino wall! | |||
[SOUND: the Brutes slams the ATM into the Crone.] | |||
CRONE: [gurgling scream.] | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Chatter) TRANSACTION COMPLETE! PLEASE COME AGAIN! | |||
'''Circle 4, Arc 3''' | |||
[SOUND: Slot-machines jingle inside the casino.] | |||
CRONE: (dying) Jackpot...jackpot... | |||
SADIE: (whisper) Oh my God! She's crushed under the ATM! | |||
BRUTE: [Angry growl.] | |||
SADIE: (whipser) Please, don't look behind this dumpster, you big dumb Brutes. | |||
Please, please, please... | |||
BRUTE: [Angry roar.] | |||
CRONE: Alien son of a bitch! Think I'd share any of this with you-- | |||
[SOUND: A Brute shoots the Crone then they all march down the street.] | |||
SADIE: That's it... keep walking. Nothing more to see here... | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from the Chatter) Sadie, are you all right?! | |||
[SOUND: The Brutes turn and shoot Sadie's dumpster.] | |||
SADIE: I was! | |||
[SOUND: The Brutes are shooting at Sadie as she runs for cover.] | |||
DR ENDESHA: I'm sorry! Run! Run! | |||
[SOUND: Suddenly, a car races down the street, smashes the Brutes and | |||
then plows into the casino.] | |||
BRUTES: [Dying growls.] | |||
SADIE: Vergil?! I car just came out of nowhere-- smashed into the Brutes! | |||
Was that you? | |||
[SOUND: The car door opens with a groan.] | |||
MIKE: (exiting the car) My head...I thought air-bags where supposed to | |||
stop you from getting hurt. | |||
SADIE: Mike! You came back! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Who's 'Mike'? Sadie, what's going on? | |||
SADIE: Hang on, dad... | |||
SADIE: (to Mike) Let me help you out of there. | |||
MIKE: (groans) I'm OK... Seriously. | |||
SADIE: That whole macho tough-guy thing? It's never really worked for me. | |||
SADIE: Give me your hand... | |||
MIKE: Uhn... Be gentle. | |||
MIKE: Take me around front. Let me see what I hit... | |||
MIKE: Brutes huh? | |||
MIKE: Well that's never coming out of the grille. | |||
'''Circle 5, Arc 1''' | |||
[SOUND: Jingle of slot-machines, groaning car metal.] | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie, thank the gentleman. | |||
SADIE: (whisper) Great etiquette tip, Dad! Let me get back to you... | |||
[Chatter disconnect] | |||
SADIE: My father says I should thank you for saving my life. | |||
MIKE: Couldn't save the car, though. I think there's something stuck in | |||
the.. Oh. | |||
SADIE: That's a.. Eww. | |||
MIKE: Paw... Yeah. I can see that. | |||
SADIE: Mike. Seriously. Thanks. | |||
MIKE: Hey, I didn't want to be the guy who leaves the damsel in distress. | |||
SADIE: Plus all the lights turned red when you tried to drive away. | |||
MIKE: How did you...? | |||
SADIE: Vergil. | |||
MIKE: Who's that? Your... boyfriend? | |||
SADIE: (laughs) Not quite. You know the Superintendent? | |||
MIKE: Sure. The AI that runs the city. Picks up the garbage, monitors the | |||
traffic. It helped me trace a license-plate last week. | |||
SADIE: Well... Vergil is part of the Superintendent-- a subroutine my Dad | |||
wrote to look after me when I was a kid. | |||
MIKE: Look after you? | |||
SADIE: After my mom died, it was just Dad and me. He did his best. But | |||
his job... | |||
SADIE: When Dad couldn't be there, Vergil was. | |||
SADIE: He helped me get to school on time, made sure I bought a healthy | |||
lunch and didn't watch too much TV...that sort of thing. | |||
MIKE: Must have been annoying. | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Chatter) YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK! | |||
SADIE: It still is... | |||
SADIE: Mike. Why are you helping me? | |||
MIKE: I'm a cop. 'Service to All,' right? | |||
SADIE: Uh-huh. | |||
MIKE: Look, the city is under attack... A lot of people need help. | |||
MIKE: Well... I can die a hero or I can die a coward but-- | |||
SADIE: Got any choices that don't involve dying? | |||
[SOUND: distant explosions in the city center.] | |||
MIKE: Not if you want to go back over that bridge. | |||
'''Circle 5, Arc 2''' | |||
[SOUND: Honking car horns and panicked screams.] | |||
CROWD: Hold my hand, son! Don't look down! | |||
CROWD: Is it true? That they've shut down the tether!? | |||
CROWD: Officer? Where should we when we're off the bridge? | |||
COP: Just keep walking! Get out of the city! | |||
COP: Everyone try and stay calm! Marines will be here soon! | |||
PROPAGANDA: (from PA) Citizens! Your neighbors are resisting! | |||
PROPAGANDA: A popular uprising is inflicting heavy causalities on the | |||
invaders! We will prevail! | |||
MIKE: How are we going to get across this bridge? It's packed! | |||
SADIE: Good manners and pointy elbows! | |||
MIKE: (whisper) Jeez, Branley. The things you do for a kiss... | |||
SADIE: What? | |||
MIKE: I said, I won't let you down, miss! | |||
SADIE: Right! | |||
CROWD: Ow, wrong way, girl! | |||
CROWD: Hey! Watch where you are stepping! | |||
SADIE: (pushing through crowd) Excuse us! Sorry! | |||
MIKE: Hey, step aside! Police business! | |||
SADIE: It's an emergency! Let us through! | |||
MIKE: Step aside people! | |||
SADIE: You know, if the panicked mobs would just stay in nice, neat lines | |||
we'd-- Ow! Watch it!-- get across this bridge a lot faster! | |||
MIKE: Do you hear that? | |||
SADIE: What, the water? Don't tell me you're afraid of heights! | |||
MIKE: Pelican drop-ship. Hard to see through all this smoke. But its | |||
heading our way. | |||
SADIE: (to Chatter) Vergil? Got eyes in the sky? | |||
[SOUND: (from Chatter) Vergil chime followed by a tapping and barking.] | |||
SADIE: Not good. Cane tapping. Seeing-eye dog. Means Vergil can't see | |||
it... | |||
MIKE: And who do we know that likes to travel off the grid? | |||
CROWD: That's a police drop-ship! We're saved! | |||
CROWD: We can't all fit on that! | |||
CROWD: Says you! I'm getting on first! | |||
[SOUND: A Pelican drop-ship settles on the bridge and opens its troop-bay | |||
door.] | |||
MIKE: Aww, crap... | |||
KINSLER: Hello, Sadie... Remember me? | |||
'''Circle 5, Arc 3''' | |||
[SOUND: Kinsler's Pelican drop-ship settles on the bridge.] | |||
CROWD: The commissioner! We're saved! He has a drop-ship! | |||
CROWD: Yeah, and a sub-machine gun! | |||
CROWD: Why's he pointing it at that girl? | |||
CROWD: Not our problem! Keep moving. | |||
KINSLER: (readies his weapon) It's so good to see you again Sadie. | |||
KINSLER: But please, no sudden movements. This Pelican isn't the stablest | |||
thing to stand on. I'd hate to shoot you accidently. | |||
KINSLER: Branley. Your service pistol. Remove it from your hostler. | |||
Slowly... | |||
MIKE: Yeah, yeah... | |||
KINSLER: Now toss it off the bridge. | |||
[SOUND: Mike throws his pistol into the water.] | |||
KINSLER: Good. Now, I must say, Sadie. You play very hard to get. | |||
SADIE: Bet that makes you angry. | |||
KINSLER: Oh... quite the opposite. | |||
SADIE: (whispers into Chatter) Vergil... a little help here! | |||
KINSLER: Your chatter made you easy to track. But I think you and Vergil | |||
have talked quite enough. Take it off. | |||
[SOUND: Sadie rips her Chatter off her wrist.] | |||
KINSLER: Now smash it! | |||
[SOUND: Sadie crushes her Chatter with her foot.] | |||
KINSLER: Do you know what I've learned in all my years in politics? | |||
SADIE: That you're an asshole? | |||
KINSLER: The value of escalation. For example, last time we met, Branley | |||
hit me with his fist. | |||
MIKE: Keep talking. I might do it again. | |||
KINSLER: I think not. This time, I have a sub-machine gun. You see? | |||
Escalation.... | |||
KINSLER: Goodbye, Branley. | |||
SADIE: Do it and you're a dead man. | |||
KINSLER: Sadie. You're such a bright, beautiful girl. You have no idea | |||
how much it pains me when you act so incredibly stupid. | |||
[SOUND: Rattle of approaching treads.] | |||
KINSLER: I have. The gun. | |||
SADIE: Yes... But I have the garbage truck. | |||
[SOUND: Metal crunch as an Olifant smashes into the Pelican.] | |||
CROWD: An Olifant just hit that Pelican! | |||
CROWD: Don't see that every day! | |||
KINSLER: My drop-ship! That's city property, Vergil! What the devil do | |||
you think you are doing? | |||
SADIE: Escalation. | |||
[SOUND: The Olifant honks then drops its garbage on the Commissioner.] | |||
KINSLER: [Chokes and gags] | |||
CROWD: (laughs) It just dumped its whole load! | |||
CROWD: (laughs) The commissioner is totally buried in garbage! | |||
MIKE: Ugh... Man, what a smell! | |||
SADIE: Come on! That's our ride! | |||
MIKE: Oh, no... No, no, no! | |||
MIKE: I am not getting into the back of an-- (gags) --Olifant. | |||
SADIE: Think of it as an armored personal carrier, for the ... smell | |||
impaired. | |||
'''Circle 6, Arc 1''' | |||
[SOUND: Olifant engine and clanking treads.] | |||
PROPAGANDA: (from PA) Stay strong, Mombasa! Our noble militia is hitting | |||
back hard! The enemy has begun to retreat! | |||
MIKE: (groans) I think I'm going to puke... | |||
SADIE: Might make it smell better. | |||
MIKE: Why do we have to ride back here again? | |||
SADIE: It's the safest way to get to the ONI building. If we sit in the | |||
cab, we're targets. | |||
SADIE: If we let Vergil drive us to the ONI building, the Covenant thinks | |||
we are just a harmless machine. | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from Olifant radio) RECYCLING! DO YOUR PART! | |||
[SOUND: The Olifant’s access-door cranks open.] | |||
MIKE: Uh-oh... Company! Get behind me! | |||
TOM: Finally! Something between me and all the shooting! Guess we all had | |||
the same bright idea, huh? | |||
TOM: Name's Tom Umberti. Damn glad to meet you! Married, right? You two | |||
own a house? Of course you do! | |||
TOM: Say, when this is all over, if you're in the market for new ceramic | |||
siding? Hey now -- I'm your man! | |||
SADIE: Tom? Shut-up. | |||
SADIE: Vergil, can you raise Dad on this Olifant's radio? | |||
TOM: Wow, buddy. Is she a tough customer or what? | |||
MIKE: You have no idea. | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from radio) Sadie! You had me worried half to death! | |||
SADIE: I'm okay. What about you? | |||
DR ENDESHA: The fighting is spreading, damaging all sorts of systems. | |||
Power, data... | |||
DR ENDESHA: The entire Superintendent infrastructure is close to collapse. | |||
I'm doing all I can but-- | |||
SADIE: Dad, you've done an incredible job of keeping Vergil together. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie, it's not me... | |||
DR ENDESHA: It's the Covenant. | |||
'''Circle 6, Arc 2''' | |||
[SOUND: Explosions rock the Olifant on its treads.] | |||
SADIE: Dad, it's hard to hear inside this Olifant. Say that again? | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from radio) A plasma bombardment collapsed on of Vergil's | |||
tertiary data-centers. | |||
DR ENDESHA: I was accessing the damage through the underground cameras, and | |||
I saw Covenant splicing cables, patching switches-- | |||
MIKE: Wait-- the Covenant are helping us?! | |||
TOM: Well, I'll be damned! | |||
SADIE: Dad, I just meet my first Brutes. They didn't seem too helpful. | |||
DR ENDESHA: No. The ones in the data-center weren't Brutes-- or any of | |||
the Covenant I've heard about. | |||
DR ENDESHA: It's a whole new species, Sadie. And they are actually quite... | |||
beautiful. | |||
DR ENDESHA: They have some sort of automatic defense system, but so long as | |||
you don't get too close-- | |||
TOM: You know -- and I'm just thinking out loud here -- maybe this whole | |||
invasion is just one big misunderstanding! | |||
SADIE: Shut-up, Tom! | |||
DR ENDESHA: Vergil's observing another group of them now inside Kikowani | |||
Station. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Hang on a second. I'll connect the audio feed... | |||
TOM: Number one rule of sales? Understand exactly what the customer needs. | |||
Not what he wants -- what he needs. You understand? | |||
MIKE: Tom. Seriously. Zip it. | |||
DR ENDESHA: It's dark in the station. Switching the camera to thermal... | |||
DR ENDESHA: Strange... There aren't any Brutes around. Usually they never | |||
leave them alone. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Alright, I see six of the new aliens floating in a circle. | |||
They're surrounding a seventh, touching it with their tentacles... | |||
DR ENDESHA: Amazing! You wouldn't believe how fast they can move their | |||
limbs! | |||
DR ENDESHA: They're working... Doing something to the explosives in the | |||
seventh's aliens armor-- | |||
[SOUND: Series of loud explosions.] | |||
'''Circle 6, Arc 3''' | |||
[SOUND: Series of loud explosions.] | |||
SADIE: Dad, what where those explosions?! Vergil, can't this Olifant | |||
go any faster?! | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from radio) I'm not sure what just happened... Six of the aliens | |||
are dead. But I think... | |||
DR ENDESHA: Sadie, I think they gave their lives to free their companion. | |||
DR ENDESHA: Yes! Yes, I can see it floating away down the subway tube. | |||
Vergil, keep an eye on that one! | |||
MIKE: Covenant with feelings, huh? That's a first. | |||
TOM: What was I saying! Don't you see? We gotta negotiate. | |||
SADIE: Negotiate? | |||
TOM: We shoot at them, they shoot back at us! That's just bad business! | |||
TOM: Hey! Hey aliens! We're in here! We want to surrender! | |||
MIKE: Settle down, you idiot! | |||
SADIE: Tom, don't you get it?! The friendly Covenant aren't the ones doing | |||
all the shooting! | |||
TOM: To hell with demographics! This is a down market! Time to bargain if | |||
you want to make the sale. | |||
[SOUND: Tom opens the Olifant's top hatch.] | |||
TOM: You! Yeah, you in the tank! Over here! | |||
SADIE: Close the hatch! | |||
MIKE: Leave him Sadie. I'm opening the back hatch. We're out of here. | |||
[SOUND: Mike opens the Olifant's ramp.] | |||
TOM: That's right! Up here! Let's say you and me make a deal? | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from PA) DON'T WALK! DON'T WALK! | |||
MIKE: Sadie! It's a Wraith! Move! | |||
SADIE: Where to? | |||
MIKE: Alleyway! Come on! | |||
SURINTENDANT :: Clear the street! Oncoming traffic! | |||
[SOUND: Wraith round hits the Olifant, killing Tom.] | |||
SADIE: Surrender accepted. | |||
'''Circle 7, Arc 1''' | |||
[SOUND: The Olifant burns in the background.] | |||
MIKE: (running) That Wraith blew the hell out of our Olifant! | |||
SADIE: (running) Poor Tom... | |||
MIKE: Poor Tom?! He almost got us killed! | |||
[SOUND: Rain begins to fall.] | |||
MIKE: Now what? | |||
SADIE: Stay out of sight, find a kiosk. My dad's in the data-center under | |||
the ONI building. | |||
MIKE: Basically right at the heart of the Covenant occupation. | |||
SADIE: We are going to need Vergil's help getting him out of there. | |||
MIKE: Here. Take my jacket. | |||
SADIE: I don't mind the rain. | |||
MIKE: It's fiber-armored. I mind you getting shot. | |||
SADIE: Thanks. | |||
KIOSK: (from speaker) Optican, health care on demand. Please place your | |||
hand on the touch pad-- (distortion) | |||
SADIE: Vergil, get me dad. | |||
SURINTENDANT :: (from kiosk) ELEVATED HEART-RATE. ARE YOU FEELING ANXIOUS? | |||
STRESSED? | |||
SURINTENDANT :: TRY OPTICAN’S NEWEST MOOD-SETTLING DRUG "STATENIZOL." | |||
SADIE: And stop playing doctor! | |||
DR ENDESHA: (from kiosk) Finally, a kiosk with a camera! Now I can see that | |||
you are alright. | |||
DR ENDESHA: But why are you dressed like a police officer? | |||
SADIE: It's Mike's. (to Mike) Say hello. | |||
MIKE: (clears his throat) It's good to meet you Doctor Endesha. | |||
DR ENDESHA: You know... You are the first young man Sadie's ever | |||
introduced me too. | |||
SADIE: Dad?! | |||
[SOUND: Engineer sound followed by Vergil's imitation.] | |||
SADIE: What's Vergil doing? | |||
DR ENDESHA: Learning to whistle! | |||
MIKE: Whistle? | |||
DR ENDESHA: So he can communicate with the tentacle aliens! | |||

They are searching for something under New Mombasa. I'm sure of it! | |||

you. People are dying down here! | |||

DUTY OFFICER: Yes, of course I could turn the Superintendent back on. But | |||
Commissioner Kinsler gave me explicit instructions-- | |||
SADIE: You're busy, so I'm just going to borrow this stapler... | |||
DUTY OFFICER: Listen, Captain, there is a Covenant carrier hovering | |||
outside my window! | |||
DUTY OFFICER: There's a sniper in my lobby and you're threatening to have | |||
me fired!? [Slams chatter into desk.] | |||
DUTY OFFICER: Office of Naval Intelligence. Now there's a contradiction | |||
in terms... | |||
DUTY OFFICER: (Sees Sadie and groans) What do you want? | |||

SADIE: This one! | |||
DUTY OFFICER: You're holding my stapler inside your pocket and pointing it | |||
at me. | |||

MIKE: It might be a gun. | |||
SADIE: Or a rifle! | |||
MIKE: Or a rocket launcher! | |||
SADIE: And if it was, why, you would have to turn the Superintendent back | |||
on. | |||

gasoline! Keep fighting, Mombasa! Fight and we will win! | |||

women, to weak to leave her bed... | |||

in the school's basement. | |||
STEPHEN: They are all going to die. | |||
MIKE: Maybe, maybe not. The marines will be here soon... | |||

up. We're... we're fighting hard. | |||

SADIE: My father is still in Vergil's data-center. | |||
MIKE: I've been listening to your dad all day. And the one thing he | |||
wouldn't want you to do? Put yourself in even more danger by-- | |||

CORRUPT COP #1: The tunnels are crawling with Buggers, Commissioner. We've | |||
lost a lot of men. Maybe we should-- | |||
KINSLER: No one leaves until I get that alien! Do you hear me, officer? | |||
KINSLER: It found a way to hack a Superintendent-class A.I.! Knowing how | |||
it did that is vital to the war effort! | |||
