Sinbad S1E12 - English Transcript

This is not what we agreed to. It's all I could get. Please. I tried, I tried everything. Medicine is expensive. My medical skills are expensive. She's only a child. She doesn't deserve this. If I agree to help you for a pittance, others would expect the same. It wouldn't be fair. Please. (SOBBING) Please. I promise you, I will find you help. I'll make it better. I promise you. (LOUD RUMBLiNG) (WIND HOWLiNG) (THUNDER CRASHING) SINBAD: That map that you saw, are you sure that this is the right way? The pillars mark the entrance to the way to the Land of the Dead until you find your brother. Don't give up now! GUNNAR: Sinbad! We're going for it! This is the way! Of course! Into the void, what could possibly go wrong? Hang on in there, girl! (WIND HOWLiNG) Anwar! Hold this. Uh! (SCREAMING) The plan is simple. We find my brother and we get him out. You make it sound so easy. This is the part where I would say the land of the dead goes against every scientific and medical law out there. Nobody has to come with me. I understand I'm asking a lot of you, so if anybody wants to stay on the ship, I won't think any less of them. Of course, we're coming with you. Then let's do this. Come back alive. All of you. I cannot sail the ship by myself. So do not inconvenience me. GUNNAR: My people believe that when you die, you go to a great and majestic hall, full of heroes. RINA: Fields. That's what I was always told. Green grass, blue skies, sunshine. ANWAR: I thought we just become food for the worms. Looks like we'll find out soon enough. SINBAD: Is this it? It's just a gate. Here. It's locked. Steadfast. We won't be able to break it down either. Sinbad, why don't you try? Well, if Gunnar can't open it, I don't see how I could. (GATE CLiCKS OPEN) - How did you know? - I didn't. I just had a feeling. Last chance to turn back then. So, this is the Land of the Dead. TIGER: No. I think this is what comes before. City of Limbo. Where lost souls remain, hanging on to life. How do you know so much? I've travelled. Heard stories. It's amazing. RINA: Listen. No noise. No life. Nothing. Cities are never silent. (LOUD ROAR) Jamil. Wait here. Jamil? Brother, are you here? (RUSTLiNG) Jamil? Jamil, is that you? (GASPS) - Did you see it? - See who? Something's woken them up. You don't know what happens when they get you. Don't know about the light! About how they make you see the - The truth. - (ROARING) - They're coming! - No, please! I need your help. I'm looking for my brother. - His name is Jamil. - They're here! (SCREAMING) (DISTANT VOICES) (ALL CHANTING INDISTINCTLY) What is this? Celebrations for the Emir's birthday, of course. The Emir? He's alive? Of course he is! Wait, wait, wait! Wait. None of this makes any sense. Young man, a word of advice, alcohol and the midday sun, not a good combination. - ANWAR: Sinbad! - GUNNAR: Careful. Whoever's making that noise, we don't want to draw its attention. We need to find him fast. It seems to me, he wouldn't have ended up here if it wasn't for you. I've heard you, the past few days, whispering in his ear. Telling him how right he was to come here. Well, I supported him. We all did. No. You were driving him. Pushing him. - RINA: Gunnar! - What are you doing? A fighter like Tiger would have easily blocked that attack. She didn't even come close. This, this is not Tiger. Who are you? And what are you doing here? What's wrong with you? This is Tiger! No, it isn't! Talk. Or, I swear to God, this will be the last voice you ever hear. What trap have you lead us into? I am here because I'm looking for someone, too. No. It's not a trap. I don't believe you. Wait! Wait. She's telling the truth. She's been inside my head, but I've been inside hers. I know why she's here. And it's not to harm us. Believe me. If anybody wants to hurt her, I do. But now's not the time. We need to find Sinbad first. You step out of line and I won't hesitate to run a sword through you. (SINBAD SCREAMING) Gunnar! (GRUNTING) Dare you try your hand at battling against the mighty Northlander! Five dinar gives you the chance. Five dinar gives you the chance. Gunnar! Gunnar. Gunnar. This is very strange. We were in the Land of the Dead and then, we Somehow we ended up in this place and I You don't know what I'm talking about, do you? (SCREAMING) Gunnar! Gunnar! RINA: Sinbad, what is it? Whatever it is, it's going to stop. TARYN: It's a part of the Land of the Dead. It can't be killed. Even if it can't be killed, it can be distracted! The rest of you, get ready to grab him. (GRUNTS) (GRUNTING) (GROANS) (SCREAMING) No! Oi, Cyclops! (SCREAMING) ANWAR: Sir, can you hear me? Sir, are you all right? Hello? (GASPS) ANWAR: Careful. Careful, now. You're badly hurt. I was I was in In the city of Limbo and Taryn was there. Taryn. Oh, no. Oh, what's happening to me? You were in a fight. I was passing through the market. I saw you lying there hurt. I'm a doctor. Is this real, Anwar? Is it? How do you know my name? Because, uh, because we're friends. We've never met before. What? No We We travelled on the Providence. We've had so many adventures. I was on the ship called Providence, but I got seasick. They sent me home. My father covered it all up. There's no way you could've known. (PANTING) SINBAD: I saw how you changed. Running away from home. It made a man of you. You were happy. It's a big world out there. It's never too late to take a look. I hate seeing you all like this! You and Gunnar. Jamil. I have to find my brother. No, no, no. You need to let me finish examining you, because you're sick. More than sick. That doesn't matter. All that matters is that I find him. We're running out of time! Find somewhere inside! Rina, bolt the door! (DOOR LOCK RATTLiNG) He's not responding. TARYN: He's still trapped in the light. Then get him back. You don't understand. This is the most powerful place on Earth. Your strength, his doctoring skills, even my magic, they're not enough. The only way Sinbad can get out is to free himself. That won't happen. It's designed to make sure it won't. You were able to get inside her. Surely you can do the same to him. Help him fight it. This is different. The state he's in, the shock would kill him. But if we don't try Exactly. Then try. Do it. Sinbad. (TARYN CHANTING) (BANGING) TARYN: Sinbad. JAMIL: Yes, can I help you? Jamil. Jamil, it's me. I'm sorry, friend, you have me at a disadvantage. Are you all right? Yeah, if you could, um, just stop that. Jamil, it's It's me. It's me, it's Sinbad, your brother. I don't have a brother! You do. - You do. I'm - No. My mother passed away when I was little. - She was expecting. - What? So, if you think this is funny, it's not! - Jamil! - Now, get out! TARYN: Sinbad. (TARYN CHANTING) You have to stay alive. My own brother. It's like I never even existed. When he told me about my mother dying with a child, I think that child was me. What I was trying to tell you, when I was examining you, and this goes against every natural law I know, but you didn't have a heartbeat. But I don't know how to say this. You You're dead. TARYN: Stay alive, Sinbad. (SCREAMING) (GASPING) No! No! No! Stay away from me! Tell me it's not true. I know what I am! Tell me it's not true! It can't be. I can't be dead. I don't understand what's happening to me. You have a foot in both worlds. You're both alive and dead. How is that possible? You. What is it you want with this place? What do you want with me? What? I had a daughter Alehna. She was ill, and she I tried everything I could to get her back. But this place was too powerful. And then I met you, the one person who could open the door to this place. A man, both dead and alive. (LOW ROARING) There's more than one of those things. By the sounds of it, they're getting closer. Because of you, Sinbad. Because they know you're different. A threat. And the Land of the Dead wants to claim you for its own. And what happens if they find us? Life here is a disease. They would be extinguished. Because of me. I was wrong to bring you here. I'm sorry. ANWAR: Sinbad! (GRUNTS) I'm here! (WIND HOWLiNG) Come on! Come and get me! Come on! Come and get me! (JAMIL WHISTLES) JAMIL: Brother! (ROARING) (ROARING STOPS) (BOTH PANTING) You've gotta be careful, brother. Otherwise, you'll end up as dead as I am. (LAUGHING) TIGER: It's this way. I'm sure of it. (LOUD ROARS) We're too late. We're not. Don't say that. He wouldn't sacrifice himself for us. Would he? SINBAD: Well, that was sort of the plan. But, luckily, someone has changed my mind. Everyone, this is Jamil, my brother. JAMIL: When those hideous noises started ringing out across the city, I've never heard anything like it before. - I knew it must be trouble. - Yeah, and trouble means Sinbad. (WHOOSHING) Come on. We'll hide in here until they calm down. It's safe. I've mapped this place. Hidden pathways and passages. We just need to find the right one. (RHYTHMIC MUSIC PLAYS) Do you hear that? That music on the wind, it's Can you hear it? It's an old lullaby. I used to sing it to my daughter every night when she was ill. It means she's here. She's calling to me. Sinbad, you have found your brother, but I have to find my child. I need your help. I understand. You should hurry. The longer you wait here, the more of them will come. TARYN: Leave, while you still can. GUNNAR: Of course, it is your choice. Wait. (MUSIC PLAYING) Upstairs. JAMIL: There are so many things I can't wait to do. Feel the sea breeze, hear the birdsong. The din of the marketplace. Sorry. I've just never met a dead person before. Well, it's fine. I'm a doctor. Student doctor. (SOFT STRUMMING) Alehna. Mother? ALEHNA: I waited so long. I'd almost given up. I promised you I would find a way. We're going home, child. We're going home. Thank you, Sinbad of Basra. I can never repay you. Sinbad? I've heard of you. You can't have. Yes, I I heard of your story from others. And then I read your tale in this library. They have the records of everyone who passed through this city. I've been here before? Yes. It gave me hope when I read about you. And how your father saved you. (LOUD THUD) I remember every word. How you and your mother died before you were born. How your father was a mage. - The most powerful - No. We never knew him, but he was a farmer. A drunk. He abandoned us all. He used that powerful old magic to come here, to save you and your mother. And it almost tore this city apart. Destroyed our mother? That's why you're special, Sinbad. You were a child born of death. You always have to be different, don't you? (BARKING) They're coming! They're here! It gets worse. They released the hounds. Unholy, vicious! I hate dogs. Is there another way that we can get out? No. Only this door at the front. This barricade won't hold long! RINA: Well, then we go down fighting! To the death then. Actually, maybe not. I found a map. It's old, hand-drawn, but it has the library. Wait. So, while we were putting up barricades, you were browsing books? We're in a library in the City of Limbo by the Land of the Dead. I couldn't resist. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is, there's a hidden exit at the back. This is it. - There's nothing. - There should be. It's a hidden exit. Key word, hidden. Exactly. (CRASHING) Hurry! Rina! Quickly, Rina. Hurry! Aren't libraries amazing? (CRASHING) - Move! Come on. - Go. Go, brother. This way! Come on! (GRUNTS) Go! - Gunnar! - Now! (LOW WHISPER) Alehna. (WHOOSHING) (LOW WHISPER) Alehna. TARYN: Alehna? We need to go. We need to get out of here. JAMIL: I have never seen it get dark here before. That's probably not a good sign. (ROAR) And neither is that. Far away. We keep ahead, we can lose them. Don't worry, brother. We'll get out of this. I never waited for you, you know. I accepted my death. But something was holding me, keeping me in Limbo. Me. You never gave up on me. Let's go home. (ROARING) Sinbad, go. Live for the both of us. No! Brother! Jamil! No! No! No! No. Jamil, no! No! Jamil! Go in peace, brother. Ah, just in time. Special meal. How are you holding up? Dead, apparently. Maybe I should have a word with him, share my wisdom, my experience. I know. We helped our enemy and we couldn't save your brother. I'm so sorry we couldn't save him. Sooner or later, we're going to run into something that we can't escape, that we can't beat. Wait, is this the point where you tell me that we're better off without you? Pretty much, yeah. Right. (CLEARS HIS THROAT) Then I have a speech. About what you saw in the other Basra. About how our lives would have been if we hadn't met you. Sinbad, you saved our lives. Imagine the adventures still out there, waiting for us. You used to be terrified of that sort of thing. Well, you were a bad influence. Goodbye, brother. Go in peace.
