  • When I was a kid, the old people told us

  • how there used to be land everywhere -

  • a whole world of dry land.

  • But that was before the floods,

  • before we were forced into the mud.

  • Then they told us how the people here thought

  • they were saved when King Richard built Sherwood.

  • New city, new hope for life, right?

  • But they took Sherwood from us.

  • Now someone has to take Sherwood back,

  • and since no one else is offering,

  • I guess that someone's me.

  • [THUNDER RUMBLES]

  • Attention, citizens.

  • Insurgents are among us.

  • Outsiders with no respect for the rule of law

  • continue to invade our homes

  • and steal from us.

  • These crimes

  • - cannot be allowed to continue. - Iniko, wrap it up.

  • OK, OK, Gripper, wrapped up.

  • Hello, beautiful.

  • Ungrateful sea-dwellers bring with them crime,

  • hatred for our way of life.

  • Yeah, because you took our medicines, food, water.

  • We are building a new city.

  • A city safe from the storms that threaten us

  • and safe from those outside our walls.

  • You mean Sea Croppers like me?

  • The Upper City only stays as safe as its borders are strong.

  • Hmm. Feel safe from me, do you?

  • I speak now to those who seek to destroy us.

  • Law is the law,

  • and it will be enforced.

  • Maybe this or that.

  • Mm. Uh-huh.

  • We of the Upper City will not tolerate this behaviour.

  • We will find you.

  • We will arrest you.

  • Now!

  • We will- [STUTTERS]

  • - Hey, look at that. It worked. - [SEAL BARKS]

  • Ha! That's hilarious!

  • [SHUSHES] You want the drobos to hear you?

  • Relax, Mom.

  • Run!

  • What's that, Sheriff? You want a little fishy snack?

  • Out of the way!

  • Hey!

  • Whoa, nice! What a catch.

  • Who is that?

  • Forget her! Move!

  • Yeah, nice meeting you too.

  • Hi. I'd stay and chat, but I gotta fly. See you.

  • Together we'll rise.

  • Together we'll fight as one

  • in the deep of the ocean,

  • and in the coldest night.

  • Together we'll shine.

  • Together we're alive. Let's run.

  • We will fight as one

  • forever,

  • and we're never giving up. ♪

  • [INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

  • - Savour that. - Thanks, Tui.

  • Might not be any more for a while.

  • - Robin? - Auntie!

  • Been raiding again, eh?

  • I most definitely have not been raiding again.

  • These meds just dropped from the Upper City into my hands.

  • [CHUCKLES] A miracle!

  • Miracle my foot.

  • It's going to help you, right?

  • [SIGHS] Not just me.

  • There are plenty of Sea Croppers who need it.

  • [CURIOUS MUSIC]

  • Drop this note off at Lot 62 for me.

  • Yes, ma'am, will do.

  • Clever.

  • Can't be too careful, with the Sheriff's many eyes watching.

  • - I'm not scared of him. - And that's what scares me.

  • [INDISTINCT YELLING]

  • Drobos! Run!

  • Stay back.

  • [PANTS]

  • BOTH: You again?!

  • Come to apologise for leaving me hanging?

  • Really, Gripper? Run!

  • Get out of here!

  • Now!

  • [EXCLAIMS]

  • [GASPS]

  • [SCREAMS]

  • Hey, bolt breath! Put her down!

  • Ah!

  • The gauntlet was stolen?

  • Yes, but there's no cause for concern.

  • Oh. And I should take your word for it?

  • Not mine! The head engineer programmed it. DNA secured,

  • looks at certain chromosomal markers or something.

  • But you let the thieves escape?

  • No! Well, yes, but I'm on it.

  • We have security footage.

  • We found the hooded one in some disgusting mud market.

  • But he,... oh,

  • alluded us.

  • However, the old lady has been apprehended.

  • Soon our methods will convince her

  • to give up this Insurgent Hood.

  • Make sure she does.

  • Any means necessary.

  • And don't disappoint me again.

  • [BREATHES HEAVILY]

  • Where's Auntie? Where's Tui?

  • No one here but you, Little Mermaid.

  • Those drobos took her, and it's all your fault!

  • You led them to us!

  • I think what you meant to say is,

  • 'Thank you for saving my puny life.'

  • Out of my way. I have to save her.

  • You're not going anywhere, miss...?

  • Robin. My name's Robin.

  • - What were you doing up there? - None of your business.

  • You want to get back to your aunt or what?

  • All right! Medicine.

  • People are sick-

  • Yeah, those Upper Crusters hoard it all for themselves. We know.

  • Can this hunk of junk take me up to the surface now?

  • 'Hunk of junk'?

  • This is a genuine, customised,

  • state-of-the-art pirate submarine!

  • Aye-aye, Captain Blue-Hair. Permission to disembark?

  • How do we know that you won't go yapping around town

  • - about what you've seen here? - Please.

  • No one would be interested in what a mecha-hand

  • and his pirate sidekick

  • have in their 'state-of-the-art' piece of-

  • - Watch your mouth! - I'm not the sidekick.

  • He's the sidekick!

  • Now this is interesting.

  • We're, uh,...

  • collectors.

  • Yeah, and I'm King Richard!

  • Faulty ACC. Useless.

  • - You said- - Oh I don't know!

  • - It looked valuable! - [GASPS]

  • But this on the other hand...

  • Huh?

  • What the-? What's happening?

  • What is this thing?

  • We stole that fair and square! Give it back.

  • OK, OK! I don't want it. I've just got to deactivate it.

  • Careful!

  • Maybe if you, um...

  • Just give me minute! I know what I'm doing.

  • [GRUNTS]

  • Come on.

  • Yeah. You know your stuff, all right!

  • - [CHUCKLES] - This is some weird, new tech

  • I haven't seen before.

  • [SCOFFS] I don't have time for this now!

  • I'll figure it out after I rescue Auntie.

  • Are you nuts? She'll be imprisoned in the Cube.

  • How are you going to get there?

  • You're going to take me in this beautiful, state-of-the-art sub!

  • [BOTH LAUGH]

  • Your brain must be waterlogged!

  • Come on, guys.

  • Tui is all I have left,

  • and you led a bunch of drobos right to her!

  • - You owe me. - We owe you?!

  • We saved your life, and then you took our gauntlet! So...

  • Yeah, I'd say the score's about hundred for us, Robin - zero.

  • You plan to cut it off my arm?

  • Thinking about it!

  • Well, then the deal is if you get me to the Cube,

  • I'll figure out a way to give this back to you.

  • I'm not getting anywhere near the Cube.

  • We get caught there, we'll never see daylight again.

  • I just need you to get me close. I can do the rest.

  • Please.

  • OK. But the minute you're out, you get that thing off

  • and we part ways for good. Deal?

  • Deal.

  • I knew you were trouble.

  • [DISTANT SCREAMING]

  • So, what's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?

  • [SCOFFS] No. They said civil disobedience,

  • but I'm not supposed to be here.

  • - 'Course not. None of us are. - [DOOR OPENS]

  • Wakey-wakey.

  • Ah, if it's not our dear little, um,...

  • - Rose, wasn't it? - Yes!

  • Yes, I'm Rose Trefgarne.

  • Mr Gisbourne, please you have to listen to me.

  • Are you not enjoying your little holiday down here with...

  • the Lower City scum?

  • Tell me everything you know about Insurgent Hood.

  • I'm not afraid of you. You're just a boy.

  • [CHUCKLES]

  • 'Just a boy.'

  • Tell me where Insurgent Hood is!

  • Stop!

  • [TUI SCREAMS]

  • I'm only doing this cause

  • if someone could get me back to my brothers,

  • I'd make 'em. Yeah, I don't like seeing families split up.

  • I knew you'd understand.

  • Though, Tui's not really my aunt.

  • - I'm turning this sub around. - No! She's all I have.

  • She took me in after my mum died.

  • When my mom and dad died, me and my brothers just sailed off.

  • I wish I remembered my dad.

  • Mum said he died in the prisons.

  • Barely remember either of mine.

  • With them gone, I got sent to the salt mines.

  • Is that where you got your fancy arm?

  • The better to dig with - and better to dig my way out with.

  • [ALL LAUGH]

  • OK, [SIGHS] there's the Cube.

  • Don't go any closer.

  • Wait for me behind that turbine.

  • Then what?

  • I swim.

  • This is crazy.

  • Hey, Captain.

  • You sure you don't want to add prison escape

  • to your pirate resume?

  • Tempting, but I like being alive.

  • You'll need these.

  • And get back before the storm hits.

  • The gauntlet's not worth dying in a monsoon.

  • Aye-aye, Captain.

  • Bet you a hundred rations she doesn't come back.

  • I dunno.

  • Kid's got,... well, definitely not brains,

  • but something.

  • Searching. Don't know what I'll find.

  • But I'm ready for the dive,

  • and if I reach a mountain,

  • ♪ I'll be ready to climb.

  • ♪ I'll follow my heart until it takes me...

  • Whoa. A Cyber-Bit N-E-8-40.

  • They still make these?

  • ♪ ...where I will be free. ♪

  • Yeah, why upgrade when no sane person would break in?

  • [CHUCKLES]

  • From here to here, and then out...

  • there.

  • OK, Auntie. I'm coming to get you.

  • She's obviously been trained to withstand interrogation.

  • It's only a matter of time before she talks.

  • - [BEEPING] - [CHUCKLES]

  • - Is it my birthday? - No.

  • Your birthday is in Decem...

  • Oh.

  • Looks like we're heading back into the Cube.

  • I can handle it.

  • Not this again.

  • I am the head of security.

  • Because I made you head of security.

  • - But, father-

  • - I think you mean 'sir', don't you?

  • [GRUNTS]

  • [TENSE MUSIC]

  • [EXCITING MUSIC]

  • [SCREAMING, YELLING]

  • [DOOR OPENS]

  • Auntie?

  • Robin! You can't be here! They're looking for you.

  • It's OK.

  • You're that hooded insurgent Mr Gisbourne was talking about.

  • My fame precedes me. And you are?

  • This is Rose. She's coming with us.

  • Oh, OK. Hi. Cool hat.

  • How did you get in here?

  • - In is the easy part. - [DOOR OPENS]

  • Out might be a bit harder.

  • Ah,

  • Insurgent Hood.

  • Let's see what garbage

  • the tide washed up this time.

  • You're a girl?!

  • Well, Little Miss Freedom Fighter,

  • not so free now.

  • Oh, what have you been eating?

  • Fishy snacks?

  • Gisbourne!

  • Show this rat what we do with insurgent scum.

  • Oh. My pleasure.

  • [GRUNTS]

  • [BOTH GRUNT]

  • [GRUNTS]

  • - Let's go! - Get off me.

  • Get me out of here.

  • Now!

  • [ALL PANT]

  • - Where now? - Down here!

  • Wait for me!

  • [GRUNTS] Help!

  • Wanna play, you rusty squid?

  • How about 'pin the stick on the drobo'?

  • [GRUNTS]

  • [CLANG!]

  • [PANTS]

  • - Awesome. - Not my first drobo dance.

  • Let's get out of here.

  • Run!

  • - Pressure's dropping. - [BEEPING]

  • Storm's coming.

  • It's been too long. We stay here, we're shark snacks.

  • Give her another minute, OK?

  • - Come on, Robin. - [BEEPING]

  • You incompetent idiot!

  • I can take care of things from here.

  • You think I'm leaving you in charge? [LAUGHS]

  • But, sir, I...

  • - Just around this corner, Auntie.

  • You said that three corners ago.

  • Yes! There it is.

  • And you have a key, right?

  • Depends on your definition of 'key'.

  • Keep a look out.

  • Uh, come on!

  • [TENSE MUSIC]

  • [BATON ZAPS, CRACKLES]

  • Whoa.

  • Huh? What the...?

  • 'DNA detected'?

  • DNA detected?

  • Thomas Loxley?

  • But that's my dad. Whoa.

  • - What is this thing? - Time to leave, Robin.

  • Please tell me you've got a jetpack

  • or you've sent for a hover unit?

  • Yeah, I'll remember to do that next time. This time, we jump.

  • Here. Use this air mask.

  • - I can't. - You can.

  • There's a ride down there, friends.

  • Jump, Auntie!

  • Those guys better be friends.

  • Your turn, Rose. Jump!

  • Stop!

  • Stay where you are!

  • See you.

  • Gah!

  • [THUNDER RUMBLES]

  • She got through security using Thomas Loxley's ID.

  • Maybe she hacked up some temp clearance card

  • or rerouted the, uh...

  • She has the DNA Gauntlet, you fool.

  • And she can use it!

  • That's... impossible.

  • Ok, hand it over.

  • I would, but technically if that door opened because

  • this said it was my dad's,

  • then as his sole heir, it belongs to me.

  • A deal's a deal. Come on. Give it.

  • [SIGHS] Come on.

  • Hey, leave her alone!

  • Why should we take orders from a criminal

  • dressed up like some fancy Upper Cruster?

  • Simmer down. Rose is one of us.

  • No! It won't come off,

  • and possession is nine-tenths of the law.

  • So I risked getting turned into plankton for nothing?

  • No, not for nothing.

  • We want the same thing.

  • - Yeah, we both want that. - I mean, we want something more

  • than the lies the Sheriff feeds us.

  • You have some, um, skills, plus this sub,

  • and together we can-

  • No. No way.

  • - Never. - Too bad.

  • All that loot sitting behind locked doors,

  • waiting for Thomas Loxley's security clearance to free it.

  • Guess I'll have to get it on my own.

  • Ah. She has a point.

  • I'm sick of your incompetence.

  • Find the gauntlet

  • and get the girl back.

  • Are you still alive after all?

  • If you are,

  • I'm gonna find you.

  • Been on this road,

  • searching for the unknown.

  • Feel every ounce within my soul

  • is leading me home.

  • Ooh, ooh, ooh.

  • ♪ I'll bite into a grenade,

  • set a fire just to see your face,

  • run through a battlefield

  • without a shield.

  • ♪ I'll do anything to get you.
